A violent wind storm played havoc
in the vicinity OF ST Paul last Sunday.
The place where the cyclone struck the
ground and caused loss of life was on the
shore of Lake Gervais. The funnel
shaped cloud swooped down on seyera
summer cottages, demolished the dwell
ings and number Of other buildings IN
the same neighborhood. The camp Of
Colonel Heuher, with large party, was
blown down, but the party all escaped in
jury. In the wreck OF the Schumeir house
however, five were killed and ten injured
there and at the Good cottage.
Passing from the starting point the
cyclone struck Lake Joanna, Lake Ger
vais, Lake Vadnay, Little Canada and
passed on about four miles to the shors
of White Bear Lake,
The passengers on the St Paul & Du-
luth train which left White Bear at 4:5O
were approaching Gladstone when they
saw the cyclone forming and watched its
whirling motion with interest, either
through fear or excitement. Not so with
the engineer, however. he saw the
threatening aspect Of the sky and, with a
startled look ahead to see If all was clear,
he took firmer grip on the throttle, and
the engine leaped forward under his
touch.
His judgment and quick action undoubt
eddy saved the lives of the whole crowded
trainful, for the twisting, terrifying dis
aster crossed the track scarcely more than
a minute after the train had passed. The
help that had been called for from the
stricken district was at once sent to them,
doctors and other assistance going as fast
as they could be taken. The bodies OF
those mentioned were brought to the city
this evening and turned over TO their
friends.
The steamer Sea Wing which was car
rying 200 people across Lake Pepin was
struck by the wind and went to the bot

New Mexican White Cans.

The Secretary of the Interior has
received from gentleman now in New
Mexico a circumstantial account OF the
outrages committed in that territory dur
ing the last few months by white caps"
This lawless mob, the writer says, con-
sists of several hundred Mexicaus who,
armed, masked and mounted, almost
nightly parade through the country for
thirty miles around Las Vegas, destroying
crops, houses and bridges, shooting and
terrifying citizens upon the plea that the
land belongs to ''the people" and that they
are underpaid for their labor.
The writer describes infinitely twenty
five distinct acts of violence, and asks
that the government take cognizance OF
the matter, and furnish relief to the ter
ror stricken people. Hundreds of miles
of fences have been cut and carried away,
houses looted and burned, hay stacks fired
and agricultural implements broken up
and destroyed. Several persons have
been shot and severely wounded, and q
number of railroad bridges burned, and
other depredations committed.
The Secretary has referred the papers
in the case to Governor Prince of New
Mexico for full report he has also
asked the Governor to suggest a remedy
in case he finds the the situation such as
to require action by the government.

Trouble in the Peace Congress.

An unexpected sensation was created
at one of the sessions of the Peace Con-
gress at London, by Sir H De Burg Law
son, who occupied the chair In his adj
dress he startled everybody by declaring
that he was opposed to prayer at the open
ing of the sittings of the congress and he
proceeded to give his reasons, causing no
end of discomfort among the clergymen
and religious people present.
Religion he continued, teaches US to
love our enemies. Now, the first thing a
parent does is to place the eldest boy in
the army, where he is taught to run his
enemies through" The speaker went
through series of similar arguments and
drew the conclusion, therefore, tnat either
religion or its expounders We're failure.
1t may be remembered that Sir H. De b.
Lawson recently paid 10000 in a breach
of promise suit
The st. james Gazette sneers at the
peace Congress, which it regards as n
gathering of fossiIized philanthropists
whose ideas are as impracticable as they
are obsolete. While Mr.. Field and his
fellow reformers are endeavoring to beat
swords into plow-shares, it would be well
for them to take cognizance of the patent
fact that the tariff bill now under consid-

The Wastes of Railroad Competition.

Auditor McNair. Of the Interstate
Commerce Railway Association, has added
TO his reputation as railroad staiistieian
by showing tho senselcss waste inanlred
In by competing railroads, especially In
the passenger business. Mr. McNa!r
starts with this proposition; That tho
cost OF operating reads is generally paid
by the public, goes without saying" This
being the case, Mr.. MeNair introduces its
corrollary, that the constant and success.
full attempts OF the public 10 secure lower
rates Of transportation has IT, legitimate
end in reducing the quality OF the train
service and equipment. This state OF az
fairs is seen everywhere on poorly patron
lied roads.
Among the so-called strong lines, how
ever, sir. McNair shows that their trains
are run under a system Of wasteful OK.
trayagance, born alone Of competition.
Under this competitive system the public
complains of high rates and at the same
time compel the Lawmakers TO vote for
their continuance by refusing railroads
the economy OF combination.
He reasons that rates can never be high
or than they arc; that they have steadily
decreased about Is per cent during the
last twenty years, aud now, that many of
the roads are almost on tho verge OF bank
ruptcy, they must look 10 cutting down
in expenses in order to pay any dividends
at all
As an Illustration he cites the passenger
traffic between Chicago and Omaha. He
says: The four roads competing for tho
passenger tratfic between Chicago and
Omaha run twenty two trains daily and
four trains six times week, one way, and
convey on an average Of about zoo passon
gers of all classes, one way" He figures
that one train each way on each road
would handle the whole business and save
s, 54O,s76 in train expenses.
BY doubling the number Of trains in or
der 10 better accommodate local traffic,
still sl,3j+,2l0 would be saved, goodly
share OF which might be divided with the
public in the way OF cheaper fares. 1t
now costs 500 10 take a passenger train
between Chicago and Omaha and return.
The same figures and waste apply between
Chicago and Kansas City as they do to st.
Paul, except that tho cost of running the
train is about 500. Also the same figures
apply on the freight business, except that
it costs more to run an average freight
train than a passenger train.
BY combination the roads could entirely
do away with such espenses as outside
agencies and miscellaneous advertising.
1t costs the prominent roads in the Yves,
over 5000, 600 yearly for these purposes
In the way of commissions, especially,
millions of dollars yearly could be saved
MIR. McNair believes the total waste in
this useless competition throughout the
United States will reach 5000, 00o, 900 an
| nually, almost all of which could be saved
by legalized division of traffic, could
| such an end be reached.
MIR. McNair concludes that the results
gould be: First, lower rates to the pub

rates; third, enable weak lines 70 sustait,
