Hughes conviction grew out Of the trouble
between the Rochester clothing manufac tur-
ers and their employees in 1890. Several
hrms were forced 10 pay to the order Of Master
Workman Hughes sums ranging from 81, 600
to &2,O0O each to avoid boycott. At last the
employers united and March 7, 1891, locked
out all their cutters. In June Of the same
year Hughes was indicted for extor ton in con-
nection with the trouble, was con victed and
sentenced TO one years Imprisonment An
appeal to the general term resulted In q
confirmation OF the conviction The case wa
then carried to the court OF appeals, but be-
fore it was argued February last Hughes
came to Rochester and announced that he
was prepared to serve his sentence. For
Ave months he has been an inmate OF
the peniten tisry. He has worked as clothing
cutter and never caused the officials any

A HOLOCAUST.
Several Persons Bur ed to Death
5.. In st. Paul
The BethelRoat, Floating Home at the
Foot Of Jackson Street, Was the
scene-Many Fatally
Injured.

Fire the night Of the 9th destroyed
the Bethel boat lying at the foot Of
jackson street st. Paul Three lives
were lost and several persons were in
iured The fire was caused by the ex-
plosion. of lamp in the wash room. A
majority on board had retired to bed
and these rushed on deck in. their night
clothes. The fire department, after ar
rival, soon had the flames under con-
troll and the work Of rescue undertaken.
The body OF Matron Teak was first dis
covered. 1t was lying in her room, and
death appeared to have been caused by
suffocation. The bodies Of two un-
known men We're discovered. Lulu
Morgan, the 12-year-old daughter of
Rev. David Morgan, superintendent Of
the Bethel, is at St. Luke's hospital.
She is so badly burned that grave
doubts are expressed as to her recovery.
Three men are also lying at the city
hospital, all badly burned and injured.
One of them is James Ryan. who is
burned about the chest, head and feet.
The Bethel was built several years ago
and has been conducted under unde-
nominational auspices. It's work has
been confined to the poor classes, and
has been of the highest character. The
boat cost about $4,000. The steamer
Sidney, of the Diamond 10 line, was
lying near when the Bethel caught fire,
but it hastily pulled out to place Of
safety across the river.

TERRIFIC STORM.
Thousands Of Dollars Damage Done In the
SchuyIkiIl Valley.

Thousands Of Dollars Damage Done In the
Schuylkin Valley.
READING, Pa, July 6.-This city was
visited by hail storm yesterday after
noon which for destructiveness eclipsed
anything of the kind since 1865. The
storm originated about three miles west
of Reading and covered width Of
about four miles. Shortly before 5
o'clock blaclt cloud appeared in the
western horizon and moved eastward
rapidly. Twenty minutes later the
streets of the city were covered with
hail and water, and the sewers became
choked, being too small to carry off
even one-tenth of the water. Grain,
corn, oats, flower gardens, grapes and
other fruits were stripped OFF like
leaves. The vineyards on Mt. Penn are
completely ruined and the owners do
not expect to obtain more than 5 per
cent of the crop. Many of these vine
yards covered acres and there is moth
ing left but the vines. South of Read
ing, especially along the Schuylkill
valley, the destruction of crops was
very great. The wheat, rye and oats
crops, not yet cut, have been levelled
to the ground and many of the fields
were flooded.

b 4 4
New ORLEANS, July s Suddenly and
almost without warning the relentless
waters pouring through the Rescue
crevasse, now 500 feet wide, swept down
the New river basin Tuesday night,
carrying destruction and terror in
their path, not only imprisoning the
unfortunate people in their houses
and cabins, but driving them into the
garrets, and in many instances to the
roofs Of the buildings. There many Of
them are yet huddled. enduring the
pangs of hunger, for they have no
means Of cooking food; and it will be
fortunate, indeed, if all are succored
before starvation and exposure find
victims among them.
MANY PERSONS DROWNED.
In addition to those. already over
whelmed and drowned in the flood, so
far as reported up to this evening. ten
lives have been lost; white girl, three
colored men-Reed Saul, Tom Jones and
the latter's father-one colored woman,
mother of Tom Jones, and five
colored children whose names have not
been learned. The white girl was
brought in skiff to the head Of New
nverlane and just after stepping from
the boat to the railroad embankment
abe fell to the ground and died, doubt
less from the com bined effects of fright
and exposure, nervous and physical ex-
haustion.
DELAY WAS FATAL.
Presenting that the water would rise
gradually, as has been the case in former
seasons of inundation and that they
would have week or more in which
to remove their families, stock and
household belongings, large ma
jorlty Of the people of this UNI
fortunate section had made no prepare
tions whatever for the terrible vista
ton that came upon them in single
night. An idea of the extent and
depth of the food may be formed from
the fact that there is from to feet
of water at Dutchtown.
RELIEF MEASURES.
Measures of relief were at once insti-
tuted. 1t is thought the two fleet Of
skiffs sent, added TO the considerable
number previously in the overflow, or
gathered from other points, will be suf-
fcient to accomplish the work of bring
ing all the people of that flooded sec
ton to places of safety.

TELFAIR ACADEMY,
A Plan to Get a Great Pict-
ure for 1t.

The MORNING NEWS believes the possess
sion by the Telfair academy OF one of the
great pictures that will be exhibited at the
Columbian fair would give pleasure to all
the friends Of the Academy. Why not raise
an amount sufficient to purchase one of
theml The Academy's friends can easily do
1t. If each one of them will give the under
taking his support the thing will be accom-
plished.
The Academy has many friends, and they
are not confined to this city or state They
are to be found in many states, for OF the
thousands of visitors to the city within the
last two or three years from all parts of the
country, many of them have passed pleas
ant hours viewing its treasures. From some
Of these help may be expected.
OF course Savannahians will respond gen.
erouslY, and SO will Georgians outside of
Savannah. The Academy is in fact south
ern institution. 1t is the only Acade-
my of fine arts south OF Washing ton
The sources therefore from which assis ance
may be hoped for are many.
Subscriptions will be received by the
MORNING NEWS and promptly acknowl-
edged in the column that will be devoted to
that purpose Let every friend of the
Academy help in this undertaking and the
institution will have among its collection
one Of the great pictures Of the Chicago
Exposition.
