Terrific Storm Along the Atlantic.

Incoming vessels are anxiously awaited at
New York for news of the great storm at seq
which has been raging for the past few days
That it has been the worst storm of recent
years is made evident by the high tiues and
storm waves, which have done such great
damage along the Atlantic coast.
In New York city the cellars and first
floors of buildings along the water front are
all flooded and the ferry boats are having diff
fculty in getting into their slips. Reports
OF great damage done by the storm at
high tide all along the coast are
ever known it is evident that an enormous
amount of / roperty has been destroyed.
Along the New Jersey coasts the low beaches
were gu Emerged and the railroad tracks were
injured. Thousands OF spectators watched
the surf which was the widest and highest
known in years.
Atlantic City was completely cut off from
the man land. Much of the b ard walk and
many bathing houses have been ground up
into kindling wood. Several pavilons have
been lifted bodily from their pilngs and de-
stroyed.
Reports from Coney Island show that the
storm was the worst ever known there, and
oil night long the waves dashed over the
breakwater at Manhattan and Brighton
Beach with a tremendous roar. The marine
railway between tho two places was entirely
swept away. Tuesday morning not vestig g
OF the esplande was BILE in front of the
Manhattan hotel, and the tide flows in and
out of the basement Of the building. The
communication between the east and west
ends is entirely cut off.

This announcement will surprise nobody,
Bob's low condition from the ravages OF con-
sumption for the past few months being
well known. Sunday evening was the be-
ginning of the end. Bob became rapidly
worse, and from that time until his death
was unable to take nour'shment of any sort,
being unable to swallow. He received in
the prison hospital the very best nursing, his
sister and brothers being with him con-
stantly and the sister shows the strain IN q
marked degree. Every one around the
prison sympathized with the brothers and
sister. as they mad conducted themselves

esteem of the officials and every one else.

Superfluous now. The Younger broth
ers escaped hanging through a pro-
vision Of the state law in
force at that time, which read that
q murderer who pleaded guilty could not be
hanged life imprisonment being the maxi
mum penalty. The Youngers promptly
saved their necks by q plea of guilty, and but
little time elapsed ere their incarceration in
the walls OF Stillwater's prison for life. Bob's
account with the state is now fully settled,
while his brothers Cole and Jim remain to
drain the cup of expiation to the lees A
strenuous effort was made a few months ago
by prominent Mlssourians, backed by ex-Gov
Marshall and few oUher sympathetic gen.
uemen of Minnesota, to secure the pardon of
the Youngers but Gov. Merriam refused to
exercise clemency, in which decision the
popular sentiment of the state supported
him.

CHICAGO, SpeciaI.--John Dewey of New

with the intended sequel. the fading of the

conspiratOrs is concerned, and that it Is

were made for the reception ana shipment at
New York of the box containing DR.. Cronin's
clothes, ETC.; for their being smuggled
through the custom house at Liverpool to
an agent o. the conspIrators, who had hired
a cottage at Woolwich, nine miles from Lon
don down the Thames; and also arranged TO
procure n body resembling in general ap-
pearance that OF DR.. Cronin. Had the doc

taken from Guys hospital in London would

Another London Horror.

Early TueRday morning policeman found
the body OF fallen woman lying at the cor
ner of railway arch on Cable street, White
chapel. London. The head and arms had
been cut off and carried away and the stom-
ech ripped open. the intest tines lying on the
ground. Police pass the spot every fifteen
minutes. Those on duty at night say they
saw nothing suspicious. The physicians who
examined the body state that in their opinion
the murder and mutilation occupied nearly
an hour. 1t is surmsed that the murderer
carried off the head and arms in a bag. The
murder is the worst of the whole series OF
Whitechapel murders. The manner in which
the limbs had been severed from the body
shows that the murdererwas possessed ofsOme
surgical skill. The woman was about thirty
years old Her clothing was shabby, and
she was evidently a spirit drinker. The re-
mains have not be identified. The most in.
tense excitement again prevails in White
chapel. There was no blood On the ground
where the body was found, neither was there
any blood on the body. From this it is
evident that the murder was committed in
some other place, and that the body was
subsequently deposited under the railway
arch. The trunk was nude. A rent and
bloody chemise was found lying near the
body The arms were intact, but the legs
were missing. 1t ia believed that the woman
has been dead for two days.
Although the murder is generally spoken
Of as the mysterious Jack the Ripper" a
close examination Of all the facts leads to the
conclusion that this murder is not by the
Ripper" The police and the medical men
familiar with the details of the recent Lon
don horrors of this class say that this last
murder must be classified with those known
as the "embankment" murders, of which
there have now been fourth all, including the
one in which the headless body OF the victim
was recently discovered in Chelsea, and OF
which the head has never been found.

rapidly as steam could carry them. Prayers
were held last night in many OF
the hotels, where the panic stricken guests
found it safe to hudde together. The first
train out today had eight passenger coaches
crowded even to standing space. The trip
across the meadows was one not to be soon
forgotten. A hundred pleasure boats OF alb
sizes and descriptions were packed close to
the road bed. The masts of many Of them
had to be cut away this morning to permit
the trains to cross the tide having changed
their position since the construction train
passed over. The water was still high on
the meadows, and almost reached the fires in

age caused by the food. The loss to prop.

B4mbOOZled by his Wife.

An attorney was visited at San Francisco
by Jacob Wilson, Jr., of Brooklyn, N y,
who said he wanted legal assistance in recov'
ering his share of valuable estate, out o.
which he said he had been defrauded. His
father, he said, was Jacob Wilson, q real
estate dealer, who died in May, 1886, leav
ing an estate valued at 81 ,OOO,O 900. Half o.
this amount was to go to his widow, the re
mainder to be divided between his two sons,
one of whom was Jacob. He said'a conspir
acy was formed against him and he was de-
frauded by his wife of his share of the estate
and then she shipped him to Melbourne.
1t was learned from New York
that Wilson had exaggerated his
story, but the main facts were
correct. and that q fortune amounting to
$150,0 900 was left by Jacob Wilson of Brook
Ign, who capitalist and real estate
dealer Young Wilson gave his father much
trouble. To get rid OF him, the old gentle
man agreed to his marriage with daughter
of one of his tenants. The girl objected be-
cause she would not be provided for. This
objection the old man said he would do away
with by settling 81 500 year on them for
life and giving her bonus of $15, 200 to
take her off his hands. This was agreed to,
but after the elder Wilson y death in 1885,, he
woman got her hands on the estate, secured
divorce and sent her husband to Australia.

ments In the order making the appoint
ment it Is also stated that the commission is
not to act until the patents for alIotments
are distributed to the Indians Col Belt
says that the reason the patents have been
delayed is because they were written on
SUCH poor paper that the bureau found il
necessary to paste linen on them to make
them durable, hence the delay in the ap-
pCintment of the commission and perhaps a
further delay in getting to work. The COM
