cnICAGo's TORNADO.
Seven Persons Killed and Many
Wounded.

CHICAGO, June 15.-Another severe
storm swept over the city last night
Two buildings We're struck by lightning
and set on fire and other dame was DONE
No fatalities are reported. The storm
had the effect, however, of demoralizing
the telegraph service again, and for
long time Chicago was cut off from COM
munication with the east. The privious
days storm was much more destructive
than first reports indicated. At least
seven lives were lost in Chicago and
vicinity and fifteen persons more or less
: injured. 1t will take hundreds of thou
sands of dollars to repair tine damage
done by the tornado.
Following is corrected list of the
killed: Gustave Doerling, Emma Klima,
John Michon, Charles j. Roberts, Har-
vey Stewart and three unknown men.
Fifteen persons were injured, some of
them seriously.
When the storm struck State street its
violence appeared to be at its height.
Then it seems to have lost strength as it
howled toward the lake. Its greatest
force centered between Twenty-third
and Thirtieth streets, and the manner in
which 1t twirled and destroyed objects
along its path would Indicate that it
had "a rotary motion, and that it was a
veritable, though not highly danger
GUS cyclone. 1t was violent enough,
however, to tear the roofs off the build
ings and send them flying through the
mir, and to break telegraph poles as
though they We're pipestems.
A wild rumor was circulated that
rome of the Worlds fair buildings had
been damaged, but this proved untrue.

Ohio Against Cleveland.

COLUMBUS, June 15.-It will be the
field against Cleveland in the Demo-
cratic state convention today, and the
indications are that the field is in the
majority. The field, however, is not
concentrated on any one man. Some of
the delegates favor Hill, others ex-Secre-
tary Whitney, a few Governor Flower,
but the great bulk of the anti Cleveland
delegates are non-committal beyond the
statement that they favor any man, east
or west, that stands show of carrying
New York. Congressman Warwick said
that a caucus of the delegates to Chicago,
made by parties in whom he had every
confidence, showed thirty-three anti
Cleveland to nine for the ex-president.
This does not include the delegates at
large. The platform as drafted by the
subcommittee last night is brief. prin-
cipally with tariff and ballot reform, re-
affirms the deliverances of the last con-
vention on sumptuary legislation and
the currency question.

BALTIMORE, June 15.-Six carriages
drove into Greenmount cemetery Mon
