The city during the night was enveioped
In darkness, owing to all the servl % from
the electric light station being cut Oh. The
track OF storm embraced the company's
network OF wires and also caused the elec-
trio street railways to suspend operations
completely and until the trees. telephone
and telegraph poles and debris is removed
from the tracks they cannot resume. To-
day Wllkesbarre, the metropolis OF the coal
regions, stands amazed aud dismaysd at
the calamity which descended upon 1t In SO
short space OF time. Thousands OF peo-
Pile are scrambling over and about the
scene OF the wreck, neglecting all usiness.
The condition OF things In and around
Wilkesbarre continues In a state OF chaos,
though extra efforts are being put forth
by the people TO clear the streets and re-
lieve badly situated families.
The great number of unroofed houses
were left at the mercy OF the rainstorm,
which prevailed with unusual severity all
through the Eight. This added much 10
the damage and the es mates OF last nights
dispatches are manifestly too low.
Ten thousand people are on the streets
Viewing the devastation, and yet the best OF
force and hundreds OF men are engaged in
the work of Fighting things. Another fatal.
ity has been brought to light.
The body OF Peter Schmidt, aged 10, was
found near the Lehigh Valley railroad
tracks, and there are reports of discoveries
OF other bodies.
Incoming trains are bringing hundreds
OF people to view the cyclones work. The
railroads are running on time, their tracks
having been but slightly dlsarranged.
Wires are down everywhere and telephone
service Is at standstlll.

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-The statement of
the New York Central & Hudson River
Railroad Company issued last night by
Third Vice. president Webb, defining
their position in regard to the reinstate.
ment of the strikers was read with inter.
est by the ex.employea OF the road this
morning. They seem to think that the
statement ia rather indefinite and that
the company, while adhering to it in \
nominal way, will take on the old en-
ployes IS quickly as they make applics-
tion for work.
This, however. is not the protested
opinion of Mr. Webb, who says that the
declaration viii bs followed ont by the
company both In spirit and letter. Few
Of the strikers were around this morning
aud these were uncommunicative.
The expected visit OF the members of
the general executive board OF the X. OF
Il. to Vice-presideut Webb was talked
over and the conclusion arrived at was
TINT compromise would be effected
whereby thu str krrs could return with
