miracle that more lives were not lost.
In the Tebbett hotel there were at least
thirty guests and many of these cannot
be accounted for. The cyclone came
without any warning whatever. There
was small cloud in the southwest but
no one noticed it particularly,
All of sudden, with mighty roar, the
work of destruction was begun, The
Rothschild's building, just completed,
was torn to pieces in an instant, Fifty
dwellings were smashed into kindling
wood and most of them were piled in
one spot near the opera house, which
was lifted bodily and dropped within a
block of its site where it fell all to
pieces of its own weight. The force of
che cyclone was inestimable. 1t took a
locomotive that stood near the depot and
deposited it, still steaming, In creek
half a mile away. Hundreds of families
are homeless and without food or shelter.
Relief committees have arrived here
from Hutchinson and Kingman every
thing possible is being done to relieve
the destitute and care for the injured.

STATIONS of the day; of the number
nearly 100, 1000 came from the surround-
1qg country. President Harrison. was
enthusiastically received everywhere,
and was compelled to bow his acknowl-
pigments to almost continual cheering.
The weather was bright and fair. Tho
features of the day were the dedication
pf the handsome monument in Washing

sssiors of Monroe county who.

Ind the speeches Of President Har-
'ison and Governor Flower. The

name for Rochester at present than the
old name of the '''City of Flour" From
the buildings along the principal streets
foated thousands of flags and countless
yards of bunting, and it is safe to say
that never in the history Of the city had,
such elaborate decorations been made
for any previous event. The exercises
at the unwilling of the monument were
preceded by review in which At sast
5000 men and boys formed Into organ
lied bodies participated. The president
reviewed the parade and afterwards
took part in the exercises at Washington
Park. His reception was most snthus,
iastic. The veterans cheered again and
again, waving their hats. Every point
in his speech called forth enthusiastic
demonstration. At the conclusion of
the exercises the president returned TO
his car and with Governor Flower drove
to the residence of General Reynolds
where he ate dinner. He then drove to
the depot where he boarded his train.
Just before the train started the presi-
dent came out on the back platform and
shook hands with number Of people.

portant decisions have been received At

ANTI-SNAP CONVENTION.

The Protesting. Democrats Of New York
Meet at Syracuse.
SYRACUSE, May 31.-The convention
of protesting Democrats was called to or
der at 1900 p. M, and John d. Herman
was made temporary chairman. In
accepting the honor Mr.. Herman review
ed the triumphs of Democracy In New
York and stated the intentions Of the
present convention. The usual commit
tees were appointed and the convention
took recess.
After reassembling the convention
chose Frederick R. Coudert of New
York, A. E. Orr, David G. Robinson and
Mayor Bishop of Buffalo, delegates at
,arge to Chicago.
The platform begins with denunciation
of the Republican party on account of
the record of the ''billion dollar" con-
gress and strongly attacks the Mckinley
bill. Its silver plank is as follows:
. We are opposed to the free coinage of
silver by US alone at the existing ratio Of
sixteen to one, because we do not believe
that free coinage at that ratio win pro-
duce equality of real value between the
gold and silver dollar,
Coming then to the all absorbing mat
ter which was the cause of the call for .
convention, the platform says:
We recognize the necessity Of organi1a-
ton as the machinery through which tho
party may direct its energies, but when
such organization claims to be the party
itself, instead of its instrument, when It
suppresses the voice and misrspresents
the desire of the party, when It calls the
party caucuses at unaccustomed seasons
and upon insufficient notice, then it be-
comes the duty of the original elements Of
ne party to take action that will restore
o it just relations between the members
md their agents.
confidence in the ability and lofty integ-
rity of Grover Cleveland and In his devo.
zion to public duty. He is the choice Of
an overwhelming majority of the Demo
Gratis of New York, and the country may
rely with confidence on his ability to oar
~ the state triumphantly In November.
We believe that by nominating him to
lead the party in the approaching contest
for the presidency, the national oonven-
ton will carry out the almost universal
wish of the party and best consult the
welfare of the ouatry. But we hsXe no
desire to force upon the national eonyen-
ton our own preferences as to Candidates.
We recognize that other states and Deme:
Gratis have the game tight 20 thsir FtaEs
that we have. No map, IL set Sf men, b:
cause displeased with 2 nomination has
the right to thwart the desires Of the NEG.
ole. The wishes Of this majority ofths
party should prevail, and We pledge eur.
selves to support the candidates nominat-
ed at Chicago. >e.:i ,-.
