NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The worst is
now known about the Park place dis

made that there are no more in the

dead in the ruins was completed and
that no more bodies remained there.
Work was at once stopped and the Ia
borers employed in clearing out the
debris We're discharged. The verified
list of the missing shows thirty-five
persons unaccounted for. The num-
Der of unidentified dead taken from the
ruins is eighteen. Allowing that eigh.
teen of the missing persons are repre-
scented by the unknown dead, seventeen
are still unaccounted for. They are
not in the ruins. and if not, comes the
natural query whether owing to the
fierceness of the flames which ragged
several hours, some of the bodies were
not entlfeIV consumed.

shrewdness in pretending to open some

e HOWLiNG HURRICANE.

Great Britain Visited by a Terrific Storm
of Wind and Rain, Causing Immense De-
struction on Land and Seattle Flower
Show at Newcastle Wrecked--The French
Fleet Leave In the Storm.
LONDON, Aug. 27.-All night long a
tremendous hurricane prevailed
throughout Great Britain. Everv-
where the telegraph wires are pros
trated, and it is impossible to obtain
anything more than the most meager
information as to the amount of de-
struction caused by the fearful wind
and sweeping rain. In and about Lon
don, and the few outside places that
have been heard from, trees have been
dragged out of the ground by their
roots, and the roofs of houses have
been ripped up and hurled into the
streets, lanes and byways.
At Newcastle the tents of the Flower
show We're blown away like straws,
and the beautiful exhibit which they
had inclosed was almost entirely de-
stroyed.
A dispatch from Southport, in Lam
caster county, on the Irish sea, reports
that the Norwegian bark Gefiou has
been wrecked off that place. The crew
were, however, saved. Numerous other
minor casualties are reported. 1t is
feared that with the restoration of the
Geographic service will come the news
of serious disasters all along the coast.
Through the entire night the terrific
gale pounded its stormy course through
the narrow stretch OF the British chan
mel with violence seldom witnessed
on that rough waterway. Communica-
ton of any kind between the shore and
the monster iron-clads of the great En-
glish and French fleets now riding in
Portsmouth harbor could not be es-
tablished, and while nothing indicative
OF accident to the war vessels has been
heard, there is constant apprehension
that one or more of the ships may drag
their anchors, or in some way become
unmanageable and run wild among the
other vessels.
The French fleet sailed from Ports
mouth for Cherbourg at a. m, in spite
of the prevailing storm. The British

A SHOCKING CRIME.
\ Priest Poisoned by Corrosive Sublimate
Placed in the Sacred Chalice.

ROME, Aug. 27.-The Popolo Romano
publishes a sensational dispatch from
Palerm which says that Don Giuseppe
La Rosa, private chaplain to the
countess of Mazzarino, while celebrat-
ing mass in the presence of the family,
suddenly fell to the floor in
violent commissions, his limbs
writhing, and froth foaming upon
his lips. He was speedily removed to
his private apartments, but before med
ical aid could be summoned he died in
fearful agony. The same dispatch says
that an investigation revealed the fact
that the chaplain had been poisoned
with corrosive sublimate, which had
been put in the sacramental wine served
at mass. The police of Palermo are
making strenuous efforts to discover
the perDetrator of the shocking crime.
