On Tuesday afternoon a cyclone
struck the edge of Norwalk and swept
a track a half mile wide for consider
able distance An umbrella factory was
demolished, and several girls working
there were seriously hurt, one fatally.
Oberlin, Salem and East Liverpool also
felt the blow, and suffered loss, the
Methodist church at the latter place be-
ing wrecked. On the same day a cy-
clone passed over Michigan, doing con-
siderable damage in some localities.
BUSINESS failures have been less fire.
quent in the last three months than in
the first quarter of 16S9,an the liabilities
have also been less. In view of the un-
weather and its depressing
effect upon all kinds of business, the
lowering of the commercial mortality is
an encouraging sign, and is pretty good
evidence that the country is not going
to the demnition bow-wows.

Schedule.
WASHINGTON, D. G., August lS.-Sen'
ator Edmuuds to-day offered the follow.
ing amendment to the tariff bill, which
was referred to the Committee on
Finance:
"That whenever the President OF the
United States shall be satisfied that Il
sugar producing country, whence sugar
is exported into the United States has
abolished its duties or taxes on the im.
portation Of the principal agriculture
products ofthe United States, he may, by
proclamation, diminish or wholly remit
the duties imposed by law on sugar or
any grade Of sugar produced in and ex-
ported directly from any such country
into the United States 80 long as such
products OF the United States are ad-
mitted free OF duty or tax into such
country, and no longer"
Mr.. Ednluds also gave notice OF an
other amendment which he intended to
propose to the tariff bill, authorizing the
President of the United States, when.
ever he shall be satisfied that unj Just dis.
ordinations are made by, or under au-
thority Of any foreign country against the
Importation OF any product OF the Uni.
ted States, to make proclamation ex-
Guiding products Of that country fro IN

He said that this amendment was
identical in all respects with one OF the
sections of the "meat bill," which has
passed the Senate two or three times
almost unanimously, but had never got
any further than the Senate.

ALBANY, N. Y, August lS.-The stu
alton OF the strike in this vicinity ap.
pears to be the same as on the night it
was iaaugurated. The men say they did
not intend to interrupt passenger traffic,
and they evidently have not done so 10
any great extent. But two freiehts
passed through to-day, and the men say
a great deal OF bogus shifting is going
on. The East and West freight trains re-
ceived daily before the strike at West
Albany is seventy, while the number
of the North and South trains average
thirty-fve.
The Pinkerton force at West Albany
was increased to GOO men to-day, and
more rifles were distributed. The strikers
held q secret meeting in the rink to.
night but before doing SO, The Executive
Board OF D. A. 24G posted bulletin,
saying Pinkerton men had been detailed
to mingle with them, and asking them
to give all suspicious characters a very
wide berth.
Tho house phyeicians at St. Peters
Hospital tonight said the boy Dwyer,
who was shot BY Pinkerton guard
yesterday afternoon, was in critical
condition. The other persons who were
shot are improving.

CINCINNATI, o., August 1s-Saturday
midnight, Mt Coal City, near North BEND,
on the Commuters passenger train on
the Biz Four railway, on which NUN.
Der Of passengers were drunken ne.
groes, an exciting fatal shooting ARRAY
took place.
It began by Scary Lewis. a drunken
colofed man, going up to George Teen
and violently pushing his feet of an un.
occupied seat. Seary Lewis aud another
negro, Bsrne Bakely, then assaulted
Teen. Shorty Burton, a friend OF Teen,
took part, and fierce fist fight began.
Soon the crack Of pistol was heard,
and then another and another. No one
knows who did tho firing, or how many
shots were fired. 1t is known that both
Teen and Burton fred shots and emp.
tied their revolvers, aud that the negro
Lewis used two revolvers. Everything
was confusion and terror, and the mad
scene was soon over.
Seary Lewis, who began the trouble,
received dangerous wound iu the
groin. Berne Bakely, the negro confed.
erato Of Lewis, was shot in the wrist,
These we're the only participants hurt.
Four others were hit. ALI Hedges, a
colored man, got slight wound in the
right heel. George Singleton, colored,
was wounded in the right hin. John
Godfrey, white man, was wounded in
the right side. Mrs. Queen Crooks, a
colored woman, was shot in the head.
She died OF her wound yesterday alter
noon.
There was no report OF the affair to the
Cincinnati police till after last midnight.
Railroad subordinates here were yery
close mouthed about it. The marshal Of
Coal City made no effort to arrest any OF
the participants.
George Teen aud Shorty Burton are
employed in the Addison Pine works.
and bear good regulations. Passengers
and the public generally exonerate
these men, and the general impression
is that seary Lewis and Berne Bakely
are chiefly, il not wholly, responsible for
the affair. Teen and Burton have dis.
appeared and no one knows their where.
abonts. Seary Lewis, the wounded ring.
leader, was taken to his home in Coying.

WASHINGTON, August 1s.-Represen.
tativc Marsh to-day presented to the
House the report Of the Democratic mi.
nority Of the Committee on Elections in
the case Of Clayton Va. Breckiuridge in
the Second Arkansas district. The re-
port says that with one exception the
district has always gone Democratic,
and this in favor OF the Democratic con-
testant. The theft OF the ballot box is
admitted, but it is claimed this did not
change the result.
The report comments upon the hand.
ling of the case, calliug it disgraceful
and criminal, and attributing it to party
malice. It goes on at length, limiting at
some "base compact that forestalled the
action oil the majority" The repor,
concludes with rebuking the "wretched,
scandalous handling Of the great case,''
and deciding to appeal "to the votes o!
the people to right the wrong if the
House approves the report OF the Com.
mittee in unsoating Breckinridye."
