IN THE WEST.

DISASTROUS wreck occurred on the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul rail-
road about half a mile east of Coon
Rapids, Ia. The passenger train con-
slstlng OF an engine, baggage, mail and
express cars, several coaches and two
sleepers, crashed through the bridge
over Coon river. Only the rear sleeocr
remained on the track. Two passengers
are known to have been killed and a
large number were injured. The en-
gineer escaped unhurt, but the
conductor and one brakeman
are reported badly injured.
1t was raining hard at the time of the
accident and the darkness and storm in
creased the awful confusion. The loco
motive was derailcd in some manner
just as it neared the trcstle, ran on the
ties and struck the support and tumbled
over into the stream below, dragging
after it all but the rear sleeper. The
list of injured will reach thirty. some of
whom are probably fatally injured.

AWFUL EFFECT OF A MIGHTY
/ CLOUDEURST.

Utica, ILL.,, the Scene of Widespread De.
vastation-Towns in tho Illinois Valley
Suffer Greatly-Stock Killed, Bridges
Demolished, and Children Drowned.
The village OF Utica, ILL.,, was the
scene of Cloud burst that is almost
without parallel.
The darkness that attended the gath
ering storm was like that ofnight. The
people were terror stricken and looked
at one another in speechless suspense.
Suddenly the floodgates OF the heavens
were opened and at one awful burst a
torrent poured itself upon the village,
and almost instantly the streets were
buried under water that rose over lawns.
porches, and then into the houses. driv-
ing the people from their homes and
their places of business TO seek safety
OH the highest points available.
The excitement aud anguish OF tho
fleeing panic-stricken villagers was ter
rible in the extreme. Many of them
believed their last hour had come.
Mothers Rugged their children to their
breasts and prayed for deliverance.
Others, not entirely paralyzed with
fear, devoted themselves to saving their
property from ruin.
Within few moments OF the cloud
burst the water was fully six feet deep
in the streets. When it began receding
the great damage to property could be
discerned. Sidewalks, fences, and
bridges were washed away; dwellings
and places of business were partially
ruined, and household goods on the
lower floors were rendered worthless.
The Rock Islands new double-track
iron railroad bridge over the Peguin
.Soggin creek was washed away. and four
cars on a siding at the new cement works
were carried down the stream.
The canal bank broke in several
places, which increased the volume of
water, and lock No. ID, just west of Uti-
ca, was torn out.
Large gangs of men were Immediately
at work removing the great beds of sand
which washed upon the track from the
Utica pits, while others were replacing
the broken bridge. The loss is hard to
approximate, but $4,000 is conserva-
tive figure
4. The only fatality was in the Cop
;pcras Creek valley, just across the line
lin Fulton County. A family named Gray
had cabin in the valley, and when the
flood left the banks of Copperas Creek
and rushed down the valley the inmates
grew alarmed. The father took his
three boys and started to the hills. while
the mother refused to leave the house.
When halfway across the valley a float
ing log struck Gray and stunned him.
The rushing water drowned the boys
(aged 12, s. and 81. and he narrowly es-
capped by clinging to the log. His wife
got on the roof of the house and was
rescued

A CYCLONE IN KANSAS.
TIE STORM HAD SEVERAL DIFF
FERENT FORMS.

At Fort Scott 1t Appeared; to he n Cloud
Burst, at Kansas City IL Cyclone and at
Einporia Tornalo-The Growing Crops
Swept Down.
The southeastern corner OF Kansas was
visited by terrific storms, causing some loss
of life, much damage to property and enor-
nous damage to growing crops. The storm
was OF a different nature at different points.
At Fort Scott it took the form Of a cloud
burst. at Kansas City a cyclone. and at En-
poria a tornado. At Fort Scott the water
poured down for half an hour, the storm
having the appearance of "a cloudburst.
The occupants of houses escaped as best
they could. Some climbed trees while others
we're rescued by relief parties in boats. The
farmers from the surrounding country re-
port great loss to standing crops. aggregat-
ing not less than s15O.00o. At Arkansas
City the storm developed into a cyclone.
Little damage was done in the city.
but fifteen miles from the city the
cyclone destroyed several houses
The damage to the crops in q radius Of
twenty miles from Arkansas City is esti-
mated at $4,000. AT Emporia the storm
was tornado, accompanied by extraordi-
nary rain. In the country the crops were
leveled to the ground. The damage is esti-
mated ut $4,000.
At Chanute, Kan,, the worst wind and
rain storm ever known struck the town and
lasted about forty minutes. Abont 1900
acres Of wheat was ruined, entailing loss
OF $50, 600. The storm could not have come
at worse time for the crops. The wheat
was just ready for the reaper and at some
places had already been cut and stacked.
Much where the storm ragged is a total loss
and the rest badly damaged. Corn had
just got a fair start and was in no conition
to withstand the heavy storm. Much of it
was washed away and much will have to be
replanted. From the facts at hand. how=
ever it is estim atcd that total loss will not
fall short of 100000.

WIN. MCKINLEY, JR., was nominated
for governor by the Ohio republicans
with great enthusiasm. 1t is expected
that the democrats will renominate Gov.
Campbell and battle royal will follow
in the Buckeye state. 1t is generally
felt that as Ohio goes this fall so may
the union go in 1892 and both parties
will strain every nerve to win this i'm.
portant preliminary battle. The repub.
licans boldly stand by the protective
principle and nominate its distinctive
apostle as their candidate. The demo-
Gratis will sharply antagonize this posi-
ton. Upon the silver question the re-
publican convention demands the
amended coinage act of the last congress
by which the entire production of the
silver issue of the United States will be
added to the currency.
