FEARFUL STORMS.
East, North and South Wintry Blasts
Bring Death and Destruction,

New YORK, Nov. 25.-Meagre reports
continue to be received of cyclones to the
south and southwest. At Lawrence a
cyclone passed over the same route as
the one several years ago which destroyed
the towns OF Beaureguard and Weston.
One person was killed and several wound
ed. From eastern Ohio and western
Pennsylva mia reports are meagre, the de-
struction in every direction reported
being reports which can only be secured
when the storm subsidies. Suffice it to say
that all is chaos, and the damage will be
many thousands of dollars in every sec
ton of the country visited by the great
storm of yesterday.
Pittsburg.-In the Cumberland valley
the damage done by the storm will reach
many thousands OF dollars. Several lives
were lost.
Washington.-The total loss in yester-
days storm will aggregate $270,000. 1t
was found that George White was the
only person killed. Reports received
here from Williamsport, Harrisburg, Al
toona and other towns in Pennsylvania
and from Baltimore northward, along the
New Jersey coast to New York, show
considerable damage was done. 1t is
estimated that at least dozen lives were
lost.
A dipatch from Meadville, Pa, says:
The storm struck that towh with terrific
force about noon yesterday. The roof
was blown from the New York, Pennsyl-
vania & Ohio freight house, and the roof
partly torn from the passenger depot.

A. Water Famine.

New YORK, Nov. 25.-As result of
the break in the conduit in east New York
Saturday afternoon, by which four men
were killed, Brooklyn is on the verge of a
water famine. There is scarcely enough
water in the Ridgewood reservoir to last
even with the utmost care over twelve or
fifteen hours. The great engine which
runs the cable on Brooklyn bridge has
been stopped and as many people as pos
sible are being showed across the bridge
by the locomotives. All the fires under
the boilers at the Brooklyn navy yard
have been drawn and work is entirely
stopped.
Tie water has been shut off from the
boilers in all hotels and Office buildings
and as consequence not an elevator in
the whole city Is running this morning.
Work in every store where steam is de-
pended on for motive power is suspended
and the number Of those thrown out Of
WORK runs far above fifty thousand.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1891-11-25

Shade trees and chimneys were blown
down all over the town. The telephone
reports from nelghbofing towns tell of
serious damage. No lives were lost. A
binding snow storm is now raging at
Canton and Massillion, and railroad
trains are delayed.
Minneapolis. special to the Tribune
from Winnepeg says: The 1t year old
son of i. b. Cochrane and the 10 year old
son of L. Walton were lost in the storm
Saturday and found frozen to death by a
search party to-day. Their horses were
beside them.
New Orleans.-The Picayune's Newton,
Miss, special says A cyclone from the
southwest swept over Lawrence, four
miles west Of here, yesterday evening
about o'clock. All the houses in its
track We're lifted bodily from the ground
and carried away, many pieces Of timber
falling several miles distant. A little girl
had her brains knocked out by falling
joist and died to-day. A number of
cabins were blown away, leaving the
occupants with bruised and broken limbs.
A Methodist church was almost entirely
destroyed, as was the residence of Mr..
Clay, whose family CHANGED to be absent.

Hoods SaYsapariIIa
A Liberal Policy,

The New MEXICAN is pleased to note
that the policy of the Times, Albuquer-
que's new paper, is to be OF the building
up sort, rathe. than tearing down, and
its first issue has this kindly remark
about the capital city;
Santa Fe is again on the quivive over
the rumored return to this place of the
United States troops. A late dispatch
from Washington announces the rever-
sion OF the old historical Fort Marcy back
to the war department, and that before
many days the stirring guard mount and
the famous band concerts will probably
be once again pleasing features of life in
Santa Fe.
"The 300-year nap of this renowned
city has about come to close and like
Rip Van Winkle this city will awake to
find herself in the midst of four big en-
terprises that will make her old bones
rattle and people flock in multtudes to
her borders. This "big 4" consists OF
the extension of the Santa Fe Southern
an extensive sanitarium, the
re-establishment of the military post and
an extensive irrigation and reservoir
scheme whereby thousands of acres of
heretofore barren land will be put into
fruit"

Silver's Welfare.

PARIS, Nov. 25.-M. Seligman, a New
York banker, who was sent to Europe as
representative of the United States
treasury department with view to bring
ing about the holding of the international
conference to secure the establishment of
the bi-metalic agreement, has been in this
city to secure the cooperation of
Minister Reid, who presented Seligman
to Rouvier, minister of finance, to whom
Seligman stated the object of his mission.
Rouvier gave Seligman a cordial
reception. He expressed his sym
pathy with the proposal to bring about a
common ratio between gold and silver,
but stated that he was not willing to take
the initiative in the matter. Heexpressed
hope that England and Germany might
be induced to cooperate with France to
bring about conference to effect the
desired end.
