Dies MONIES. To-. April IA terrific
south wind prevailed all over Iowa to-
day, which was especially destruc-
tive to property in the west half of
the state. In this city the
wind often attained velocity of
100 miles and more per hour, and aver
aged at the rate of sixty miles per hour
for five minutes. Buildings were un-
rooted, chimneys blown down and
fences and light structures destroyed.
The loss is so badly scattered that the
aggregate is difficult to estimate, but il
will not be less than $4,000 in Des
Moines.
Three small brick stores of the East
side were crushed and the fire walls and
roofs damaged on many larger build
ngs. A falling chimney broke through
the roof of the State Register building,
and severely injured printer who

BUSHELS OF BAD PAPER.
Huntington's Name on Million
Dollars Worth.

Dollars Worth.
New YORK, April 1.-More of the
commercial paper of Paige, Carey & Co.,
bearing the forged Endorsement of
John Huntington. was bought up in
New York yesterday. 1t is known that
several hundred thousand dollars of the
assets of the bankrupt North River
bank are in notes bearing the sigma
lures of John Huntington, and none Of
them have been paid yet. None of it
has ever been cashed, however. Paige,
Carey & Co., it is said, kept an account
with the American Exchange bank. and
it is believed that considerable of the
worthless paper was carried there.
The cashier of the bank, when seen, de-
clined positively to have anything to
say about the forged paper. He would
not deny or admit that any drafts bear
ing Huntington's Endorsement had been
presented at his bank.
A. p. Baird, of Cleveland, called at
the bank yesterday to make some in
quiries about a $4,000 note signed by
Huntington which he held, and he said
that the discovery of the forgeries had
caused tremendous sensation in fnan-

nine on each side of the vessel. AS the
mate is dead, there is no one who can
state positively the number of roust-
abouts who were handling the freight
when the vessel caught fire, and nothing
will be known until the hull is reached
by the divers.
Diver Earhart and his assistant began
the work of exploring the hold this aft
ernoon, by accommodating about the
wreck. They found some difficulty at
first owing to the swift current in which
the hull lies. A porter of the Golden
Rule said today that he noticed that an
unusually large number of ladies' and
several children were aboard the boat.
He believes that more passengers than
Miss Maloney persisted either by being
drowned or were burned to death.

LYNN, Mass. April by the arrest
of Annie B. Fisher and her daughter
Mary. of Sougua, baby farm has been
brought to light. State officers arrested
two men on the charge of taking to
board more than two children at one
time without notifying the board of
health. The dead body of an infant
was found Wednesday in the edge of
the woods near an old farm house Oc-
eupied by the Fisher women. An in
yeStigatiOn of the house revealed ample
evidence OF the criminal occupation of
It's inmates.
Under their care were found six chill
dr1n whose ages varied from three
weeks to eight years. The woman re
fused to give the names OF the parents
of two of the children. One of them is
an idiot girl nineteen years of age, who
has been in the place four years. 1t is
said that she has brother and sister in
Taunton. 1t is almost impossible to
picture the wretched filth and depravity
on the place. Officers say it is the
worst case of the kind they have ever
seen. The women refused to talk be-
yOnd the statement that they have done
nothing criminal and that the children
have had good care.

ANGRY ULSTER MEN.
Revolt Threatened if Gladstone Is

LONDON, April The meager report

Gus Of Ulster Unionists gave no idea Of
the warlike tone Of speakers at the meet
ing, knowing their days are numbered.
These advocates Of constitutional order
met to declare civil war in the event OF
Il Liberal majority altering the cOnstitu-
ton. Some fiery spirits urged plain
declaration of an immediate resort to-
arms when Ulster is placed under a
Dublin parliament. The war talk is only
family heard in resolutions adopted,
however, as the leaders found it more
prudent to veil their threats In moderate
language. Liberia! papers treat the pro-
ceedings as buncomOe and the predic-
ton eff rebellion as mere yapOring. In
teryiews with Ulster delegates give the
IMPRESSION of intense hostility to home
rule, even keener tnan when the move
ment was organized.
