PHILADELPHIA. Monday, Jan. Q. 1890.

Women's Overgarments.
Children's Wraps and Dress
Millinery of all kinds.

Let Dress Goods stand for
all. The reductions are not

FoRrnee ARRESTED.

The DefsuIong Treasurer 20 Riley Coanty,
Kan. Arrested 1t Memphis. Tenn.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Jan. 1a-James
n. FORMER, the defaulting treasurer of
Riley County, Kan, was arrested here
yesterday and is held to await the
arrival of the sheriff from th:. county,
who had pursued him to St Louis.
Fortner, in company with a woman,
arrived on the steamer City of Cairo at
two O'Clock. A police officer, in
obedience to a telegram from the
sheriff, boarded the boat, but it was
some time before he found the fugitive,
who was travelling under the name of
James Madison.
As the officer was about to leave the
boat he saw man emerge from a state
room who he thought answered the de-
scription of Former.
The officer met with a decided bluff
at first, but it did not work and Fort
ner asked him to go back to the state
room. He did so and moment later
in came the woman who, Fortner sal J..
was his wife. She cried and protested,
but finally both weakened.
FOrtner was taken to police headquart-
ers and locked up. He had about 800
in bills and a check for small sum.
The prisoner refused to talk further
than to acknowledge that his name
was Fortner; that he had been treas
urer of Riley County three years. and
that he was accused of being an embez-
zler of $50, COO, which he denied.
Fifteen minutes later the woman
drove up in carriage and she and
Fortner talked for some time. She
left the station ostensibly for hotel
but was driven to the Iron Mountain
depot and left for st. Louis at five
O'Clock.
The woman is about thirty years old.a
handsome brunette exquisitely dressed.
Fortner acknowledged that she is not
his wife.
Last night Chief Davis received a
telegram to hold the woman as she was
implicated in the steal.
Fortner will leave in the charge of
the sheriff for Manhattan tonight.

ual shippers and was fully insured in

The elevator, TIE property of the
Northern Central railroad, was turned
over to the Baltimore Elevator Com
pany on January /. aad the loss falls
on that company. 1t had capacity of
storing $4,000 bushels. 1t was erected
in 1873. Every modern appliance fcf
safety and dispatch in handling grain
was used. The lifterS were of iron.
and the three dock legs were capable
of discharging 1900 bushels per hour
The British steamship Sacrobosco,
living near the wharf, was entisely de-
stroyed b. flames from the burning ele-
vator. The British steamers North

destroyed. Three of the crew of the

CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-The Farmers
Review says: Outside of Michigan
and Wisconsin our correspondents as a
rule report the condition of winter
wheat equal to or above the average.
The condition of winter wheat in

per cent. below the average and in

10 other counties 10 to 20 per cent. be-
low the average. With these excep-

125 per cent
In Indiana, only four correspondents
report averages below 100.
In Kansas and Missouri three-quarters
of our correspondents report 100 pei
cent. or over. Boone County, Mo-, re-
port some damage from Hessi1n fly.

Small houses were lifted bodily from
the ground and whiried around in the
air, dropping 20 the ground with ter
rifying crash and being literally

falling buildings mingled with the
shrieks of people fleeing from theI
ruined homes. The path of the tornado

the debris. The loss to property is esti-
mated at about $4,000. although no
correct figures can yet be given.
