CINCINNATI, Aug. ia riot occurred
on the Big -Four train which left here last
midnight. The train was crowded with
market people returning home and labor
ers employed at the Addyston Pipe Foun-
dry, fifteen miles west of here. 1t was
pay day and the laborers bad been drink
ing heavily in the city. As a consequence
they were in a very ugly humor. When
a few miles out Frank Thiel started the
row by trying to force another laborer
named Bennett out OF his seat. Bennett
resisted and Thiel drew his gun. This
was the signal for a general demon.
stration. The laborers were all armed
and began to fire Unfortunately on
each other. The battle waged for
several minutes. the train continuing in
motion. When the firing finally ceased
it was found that Syl Lewis had been
shot through the abdomen, Al. Hedges
in tho heel, Frank Godfrey in the side,
Alt Singleton in the side, and b. Beckel
in the arm. The train was stopped at
Addyston, where Lewis was taken off IL
a dying condition. 1t Is also thought
Singleton is very dangerously hurt. The
coach was crowded at the time. and it is a
wonder several people were not killed. as
thirty or forty shots were fired. The
laborers, when Addyston was reached,
deied the authorities and made their es-
cane.

Asiatic Tortures in Turkey.

LONDON. Aug. 19.-It may seem al
most incredible, but it is nevertheless
true. that both in the Asiatic and Euro
pean dominions of Turkey the terrible
practices of the ancient and middle ages
SURVIVE IN the treatment of u~nfortunates
accused or suspected OF crime, and especi-
ally Of political crimes. At CONSTANT
nople, it is stated, several Of the Armen-
ians arrested for taking part in the recent
demonstration against the patriarch
and the sultan's authority had
their limbs crushed in a horrible
manner before being put to death,
and others were compelled to con-
Tess by what is known as the ant
torture. The hands and feet are bound
together, and the man is placed at the
pillar, to which his head Is fastened, and
the victim is thus unable to move. A
stock of large ants is kept ready in little
boxes, and of these about fifty are placed
on the body of the poor wretch. limo
cent or guilty is soon driven by their bites
to tell any story satisfactory to his execu-
TONERS. In other instances prisoners are
fastened to the pavement, exposed for
hours to the burning rays OF the sun.
Implement is still a common punish
ment in the Turkish provinces.

yiving strength in the bodies and hope in

carries to a successful conclusion. Diges-

o'clock this afternoon the most terrific
cyclone that was ever experienced in this
locality struck this city. 1t came up the
river and the suddenness of its coming
was one Of its awful features. The heay-
ems were as black as night and the wind
blew with frightful velocity. Whole rows
of trees were blown dowa. Following
this hundreds of houses were unroofed,
partially blown over and completely de-
molished, and worse than all the vista

people. Large districts in several sec

The damage will reach hundreds of
thousands of dollars, Passenger trains
and locomotives were blown over and
every one Of the city electric lights, tele-
phone and telegraph poles are down.
The devastation is to be compared with

no fires have taken place. for the streets
are impossible with trees and fallen
buildings and the engines could not be
drawn through them. The total death
list so far as ascertained is twelve.
Four men are known to have been
killed at the Hazard wire rope works. A
house on Scott street, occupied by miners,

ton Of Stagamier's brewery, and q third
incurred the same fate through the almost
complete demolition of Browns brick
business block on Market street.
There are undoubtedly fifteen or SIX
teen others killed. Many poor people
suffered heavy losses, and it will be
months before all the damage can be no
paired. Fully 300 buildiaes were blown
down or otherwise damaged. Many of
the structures were of large size and great

EVANSTON, Aug. l9.-The Baxter,
Carey debate at Almy tonight resulted in
a magnificent victory for Baxter. Carey
opened. and consumed nearly all his time
explaining what Me and +. E." have
done for statehood and Wyoming. He
did not resort to the vlndictive abuse
which characterized his speech last night,
but acknowledged himself ashamed of it.
1t was plain to be seen that the audience
was not in sympathy with him.
Baxter's speech was delivered in acool,
deliberate manner He effectually ex-
ploded all Carey's pretentious claims, and
was received with applause. Governor
Warren's Chinese record and the Joe
Young affidavit received attention and
created a decided impression. Baxter's
Almy speech made him a friends
