A Phenomenal Electric Storm.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, July l5.-This city
was visited by heavy rain and wind storm
yesterday afternoon doing much damage.
About 10 o'clock last night, when the power
at the electric light station for street ilumi-
nation was turned on, numerous wires which
had been blown down charged buildings
and pools of water in the street with cleo
trcity Fire foot high was emitted in
places, causing an alarm to be sounded.
The fire department responded and being
unaware of the condition of things, rushed
into what was almost certain death. Horses
and firemen alike were knocked down with
electricity. Others rushed into a building
that was apparently on fire only to be
thrown violently down. Citizens rushed in
and met similar fate and excitement ran
high. A messenger fastened to the station
and had the electric power shut of, and
then the work of resuscitating began. A
dozen or more men were found unconscious,
but their lives were saved by laying them
upon wet ground. Several fremen are yet
in a precarious condition.

Storm in Ohio.

CINCINNATI, July ia wind storm
nearly demolished the village of Princeton,
in Butler county, yesterday. Before reach
ing Princeton it blew off the roof of the
barn of John Stinson, throwing it into corn
field some distance away. The dwelling
house of Finley Whitehead, in Princeton,
was carried away, and his wagon shop was
demolished. The large brick school build
ing in the village was torn down to the
foundations, and rafter of the house
was carried 200 yards by the force OF the
wind and lodged in the top OF large oak
tree, while the desks ands other furniture
were scattered in every direction. The
blacksmith shop and barn of Gus Minnear
were both leveled to the ground. The
houses of John Lennard, Rose Miller,
and Stephen Clawon. we're completely
wrecked, while Ash Walter lost everything
he possessed. The oats and corn crops we're
ruined and the village was deluged with
water. The destruction at Princeton &C.
Cured in twenty minutes. The storm was
accompanied by heavy rainfall. A report
received last night from Hamilton says that
so people were killed or injured, but this
has not yet verified.

went to work Saturday. The Sheriff re

posse. Coming upon the strikers, he called
upon them to dispense, and on their refusing,
the posse fired revolvers. One striker had
his skull grszsd by ball, and another re-

THE REPORT that Secretary Blaine Is in
bad health and will resign is denied In ad
ministration circles in Washington. He
may not be in bad health, but 1t certainly
would not be extraordinary for him to re-.
sign, In view of the little consideration that
has been paid by the President to some OF
his recommendation for Office, and OF the
determination of the President to confer
Vireinla's entire share of the federal pat
ronaee upon his open and avowed enemy,
General Malone. Indeed, under the cir
cumstances, it will be very extraordinary if
MIR. Blaine shall not resign.
