GREAT DAMAGE Br STORMS.
Railroad Traffic Stopped. buildings
ELooned and Enrm Work Refnrdrd


Fiooded and Farm Work Retarded.
CHICAGO, May Grain storms without q
parallel in recent years have prevailed
throughout the western country for the
past two days, and the amount OF damage
done is enormous. Traffic on the Rock
Island road between Joliet and the Missis-
Sippi river was suspended owing to the
numerous washouts along that portion of
the line, with the result that the entire
system. was practically tied up. All
through trains coming east have to stop at
Davenport and Rock Island, and the west
bound trains did not attempt to move out
oil Chicago before this morning.
At Joliet hundreds of families had to
quit their homes and go to the bluffs,
fearful that the dam would go out in
which case the middle of the city would
be placed under water. The factories have
from one TO 10 feet of water in them. All
farming has been stopped aud spring work
has been greatly retarded.
THE WORST STORM IN MANY YEARS.
BuRLTSGToH, a., May 6.-Last nights
storm was the worst in many years, For
10 hours rain fell in a solid body, flooding
the entire county. The Chicago. Burling-
ton d Quincy railroad suffered several bad
washouts between this city and Creston.
which stopped all trains during the day.
1t is expected that trains will run to-day.

about the use of tobacco during
that period lie says: 'The suppeP

nan dozen pipes and . packet Of tobacco
for smoking, which is a general custom. MS
well among women rs men. Ii is a custom
i'll England, that when the children went
to school they carried in their satchel with
their books pipe Of tobacco, which their
mother took care to ill carly in the morn
ing, il serving them instead of break fast.
and that at the accustomed hour every one
iald aside his book to light his pipe, the
them how to hold their pipes and draw iii

the children because it was thought to be n
preventive against the plague.

Secretary Tracy stirs Up Hornets Nest
In tho State of washington.

WASHINGTON, May 6.--The action of
Secretary Tracy In ordering the Mohcan
from her anchorage in Puget Sound. only
2S miles from the Tacoma dry dock to the
dock at Esquimault, British Columbia, for
repairs, has.stirred up quite political hor-
i NETS nest IN the new state Of Washington.
The people of Tacoma think IL rather
peculiar Republican administration.
which has boosted loudly of its protection
to American interests and American
industries, should send one of its
war-ships from the neighborhood OF
an American dock. capable of lifting the
largest ship in the world 10 dock in a
British port 100 miles away. They kept
the telegraph wires busy with messages to
Secretary Tracy, the President, Senators
Squire and Allen. and Representative Will
son Of Washington. and to the sena-
tors from California and Oregon, as
well MS to other prominent men
in Washington who they thought
might be able to have tho order
revoked. Their appeals did no good, how
ever. il was said at the navy department
there was no knowledge that the Tacoma
dock had been completed. The Tacoma
people are very bitter in their criticism of
the secretary, and are inclined to put a
large share Of the responsibility on their
representatives in the Senate Senator
Squire coming in for the most emphatic
condemnation.

TORTURED TO DEATH.
London Woman's Shocking Cruelty "a
Her Little Sten-danrhtar


LONDON, May 6.-Much public indig-
nation has been caused here by the revela-
tons that have been made in i police
court in a case that for brutality exceeds
that Of the well-known Mrs. Mc.itagu case
in Ireland.
The second wife of James Clark. car
man, was arraigned to-day on the charge
OF having caused the death of her step
daughter, aged years. She was com
mitted for trial and her husband was Sc
yerely censured by the magistrate for not
having prevented the cruelties that led TO
the death Of his daughter.
The evidence showed that the child had
been treated with the greatest brutality.
The little girl was often tied tightly TO the
balusters of the Clarks' house and was
kept there for seven hours Mt a stretch.
Mrs. Clark frequently beat her terribly
with strap or heavy cane, and very
often, when she claimed that she dis.
covered the girl telling fasehoods, she tied
q string tightly about her tongue and left
her for hours to suffer circulating tor
ture. The child finally gave way under
this treatment and died.
The coroner's inquest at the investiga-
ton showed that the little girls body was
a mass Of bruises and sores and that her
head was perforated TO the bone.
