FREAKS OF A STORM.
A Piece of Land Sinks Four Feet-Twent
Inches of Rain In Seven Days

Inches of Rain In Seven Days
CoTToN PLANT, Ark, June 3.-A heavy
wind and rain storm passed over this
town on last Wednesday evening, doing
much damage.
Three miles south of town a terrific
tornado spread death and destruction.
Many farm houses and barns were
blown down. East of Bayou de view,
in Monroe county, the damage was even
greater.
The plantation of John Gazlow was
left without house of any kind stand
ing. At the railroad tank on Bayou de
View the engine house was blown
away and the boiler thrown from its
foundation. The width of the tornado
was about one and one-half miles and
very little tim Der is left standing.
On William Clifton's place one colored
boy was killed and another seriously
wounded. The rainfall here for the
past seven days is more than 20 inches.
All telegraph wires have been down
for more than 36 hours. hence details of
the damage done by the storm are hard
to get. +t
The tornado cloud was of the regula-
tion funnel shape and travelled as
usual, from southwest to northeast.
The most wonderful incident after it
had passed was a land sink on Mr.. J.
b. Hudson's farm, where piece of land
twenty feet wide and sixty feet long,.
in his corn field, sunk about four feet,
leaving square banks on all sides.

FALL OE A WALL.

1t Causes the Death of Four Firemen at
Omaha. Neb.-A Storm Raging at the
Time.
OMAHA, Neb., June 5.-This city re-
ceived Il dual visitation from the ele
ments Saturday evening. All day rain
had fallen internationally, the storm
blowing from the east. Shortly before
o'clock the wind chopped about to
the north and in a few moments the
city was submerged by one of the most
diastrous floods ever experienced. Rain
was accompanied by heavy electrical
display ard high wind.
And in the midst of the flood came a
fire that entailed loss of nearly
quarter OF million, with the addi-
tional horror of four deaths and many
persons injured. The dead now known
are: George Coulter, Il. j. Morris,
- Cox, = Morrissey. All of these are
firemen.
When the storm was at its height,
flames burst from the fifth story of the
building occupied by the Shiverick Fur
niture Co., on Farnum street. In re-
sponse to the general alarm all the COM
panies of the city department respond
ed but the fire was beyond control. 1t
entailed loss of fully s200,O00
West of the Shiverick building was u
two-story structure. occupied by Ed
Maurer's saloon and restaurant. On
top of this building six firemen had
gathered that they might better fight
the flames. While they were there the
west wall of the Shiverick block fell
outward.
Two of the firemen heard the cry of
horror from the crowd and leaped from
the building, only to be buried by
bricks on the sidewalk. They were
quickly rescued from their irperilous pre-
dicament. The falling walls crushed
the two story building like an egg shell
and the fonr firemen on the roof were
carried down to AN awful death.

NINE DISASTER.
Terrible Accident Near Eagle Pass.
Tex.
4 COAL SHAFT TAKES FIRE.
Twenty-six of the Miners Known to Have
Perished- Energetic Efforts to Get
at the BOdies-Arrests
Made.

EAGLE Pass, Tex, June 5.-Fire
broke out in the Fuerte coal mine near
here and at least twenty-six miners
have perished. The particulars OBJ
tainable are these:
The Mexican International railway,
which recently came into possession OF
the mines, is operating narrow gauge
road with a small engine which pene-
trates the main entry, hauling in empty
and bringing out loaded cars. This
main entry is lined on the sides and at
the top with creosoted lumber and
three air shafts from it supply the mines
with ventilation. The entrance of the
track is on the north side of a range of
hills, through which it passes down an
incline to the mouth of the tunnel on
the banks of the Rio Escondido river.
Workings are all to the east of the
main entry and some fifty men were
employed taking out coal. At o'clock
yesterday evening, shortly after the To-
comotive left, the mine was discovered
to be on fire and smoke and flames
were seen issuing out of the airshafts
About one-half of the miners were
working near the main tunnel and
these made their escape, leaving twen-
ty-siX of their number to perish from
the heat and smoke and from the
poisonous gases which spread like
lightning to every portion of the mines.
When it was seen that all efforts
were useless to rescue the imprisoned
miners every energy was directed to
saving the property from destruction.
A hand-pump was placed in position on
the Escondido river, pipes were laid
into the mine as far as any work could
be done and hose attached and water
poured on the burning timbers. A
portable engine was speedily obtained
from Piedras Negras and in three hours
the fire was under control. There are
twenty-siX chambers in the mine and
the dead miners are supposed to be well
to the front of the mine.
At II o'clock one body had been re-
covered from the seventh chamber and
shortly afterward another fearfully
scorched and blackened was brought to
the surface. The tenth chamber has
been reached and men with ropes tied
to their bodies to effect their rescue if
overcome by heat and smoke are fight
ing their way to where the bodies of
their dead comrades are lying. Super
intendent George Spence ventured in
too far and was overcome by heat and
smoke. He was Frustrated but was
rescued.
All the miners employed We're Mexi-
cans and most of them leave destitute
families. 1t is reported that all parties
responsible for the management of the
mines have been placed under arrest
pending an investigation of the causes
of the disaster. But for the prompt ac
ton of the officials of the Mexican In
ternational and their heroic efforts the
mine would have been destroyed and
none of the bodies would have been re-
covered. This is the first great disaster
in the history of coal mining in Mexico.

A NOISE OF WINGS.
The Fluttering of Buzzards Around
the Choctaw Payments.
IT FRICHTENS THE TREASURY.
Payment Held Up For a Few Days Pending
Inquiry - Reason to Think the
Indians VIII Be De-
frauded.

WASHINGTON, June st is not i'm
possible that an unpleasant scandal
may develop within a few days in con-
nection with the payment of $4,000. 900
to the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indian
nations, as authorized by clause in
tbe Indian appropriation bill of the
Fifty-first congress.
When President Cleveland. few
days ago, approved and accepted the
deeds, nothing remained to be done
but to put the warrant for the payment
of the money through the routine chan
nels at the treasury department In
stantly, as if by magic, the lawyers.
lots by lots, strikers and leeches of all
sorts congregated in Washington.
Everything started out smoothly, and
when the treasury department closed
Saturday, there was every indication
that the vultures would be able to seize
their prey, as Secretary Carlisle, just
before leaving the city, ordered the ST.
600. 600 warrant to be issued.
The warrant was drawn by Chief
MacLennan and sent to the Office of the
first comptroller of the treasury, to be
paid to the proper representative of the
Indians. But the warrant was not de-
livered, and its payment has again
suspended. AS soon as the treasury
doors were opened the chief benefciar-
les of the big claim were in the treas
ury corridors and the others were
waiting at convenient points within
hailing distance outside.
In addition to the direct benefciaries
there were subcontractOrs in the per-
sons of boarding house keepers and
small merchants of various kinds, who
had liens upon the cash in the shape of
due bills The entire crowd were thun-
derstruck when the word came out that
payment had been suspended for
day or twount;l the return of Secretary
Carlisle"
1t was difficult indeed, for the law
yers and lobbyists to understand this,
because it was Secretary Carlisle him
self who gave the order for the pay
ment of the warrant. They soon
learned. however. that Acting Secretary
Hamlin is the man who, notwithstand-
ing his chiefs order. gave orders that
the warrant should remain upon the
first comptroller's desk for a day or
two.
Investigation developed the fact that
Mr. Hamlin took this action because of
mis- knowledge that President Cleve-
land is now engaged in investigating
The charge that this vast sum of money
has been heavily discounted to the law
yers.-lobbyists, etc; that if it is turned
over to the persons now authorized to
receive it there will be little left for
the Indians who sold the lands.

WASHINGTON, June at no time
since specie payments We're resumed. on
January /, 1879, has the net gold in the
treasury of the United States been as
low as it is to-day. The amount is sS9,-
939.21T
While no uneasiness is felt at the
treasury department because of the
continued loss of gold from the treas
ury, still Secretary Carlisle is not un-
mindful of the fact that a limit may be
reached where the confidence reposed
IN the treasury by the people may be
shaken. How to replete the treasury
with gold has been 4 problem seri-
ously considered by the administration
for some time, The issue OF bonds is
the usual remedy suggested. but it is
known that the president is not in favor
of this alternative except as the last re-
source, and even if they are issued
treasury officials are not By any means
confident that the treasury gold replet-
ed in this way will long continue.
it is contended that to obtain gold in
this way, with the present laws in
force, simply means the government
borrowing gold at interest for the pur-
chase of silver. with no assurance that
gold so obtained will remain in the
treasury longer than the time neces-
sarv to take it out.

SLAVERY IN Old ITALY.
Human Beings Bought as Live Goods Gem
turtles Ago.

Human Beings Bought as Live Goods Gem
turtles Ago.
The trade Italy had with the east, the
vagabond life led by the merchants
and their ever increasing wealth, caused
that traffic in slaves of both sexes which
lasted through two centuries, from 1900
onward. Oriental slaves bought as live
goods, generally through Genoese, We
netian and Neapolitan brokers, were
chiefly Tartars, Greeks, Turks, Dalma-
tians and Circassians, and do not seem
to have been archetypes of beauty.
The registers in which the nOtarieS
marked down, together with the name
and age, the price and description OF
the wares, 'the points" of the necks
and faces of the slaves bought and sold,
bear witness to this circumstance; near
ly all had olive compilations though
some were found who had rosy skins
and were fiorid and fair. The faces
never seemed to lack some special and
distinctive mark; some were pocked,
some had moles, others were SCARED;
the nose was generally squat and fiat,
the lips thick and prominent, the eyes
dull and small, the forehead low and
freckled. To these pen sketches made
by pedantic and precise lawyers some
portraits correspond that are still ex-
:ant of these women.
In rare and curious book, the MEM
oranda of Baldovinetti, in which this
forebear of the famous painter used to
illustrate by drawing his journalistic
jottings, there are preserved for US the
portraits of three slaves he bought in
the years 1877, 1880, 1888: "Dorothea,
Tartar, from Russia, eighteen years
or more of age: Domenica, of white skin,
from Tartary, and Veronica, sixteen
years old, whom bought almost naked
from Bonaroti, son of Simon de Bona

REIGN OF TERROR.
Quarrymcn Near Chicago Go on a Strike
and Raise 'Merry Ned

Quarrymen Near Chicago Go on Strike
and Raise "Merry Ned
CHICAGO, June 3.-There was reign
of terror along the route of the Chicago
drainage canal, betweeen Lemont and
Romeo. Four hundred quarrymen
struck for an increase IN wages, and,
armed with clubs and revolvers,
marched from one quarry to another,
forcing the men to quit work, thus
gaining additions to their ranks and
stopping at many saloons on the way
until, almost crazed with liquor, they
left the quarries and rushed upon the
nearest camp of contractors on the
great drainage canal line. Camp after
camp was visited and each man was
driven from work, and where they had
temerity to resist were assaulted. Many
men were painfully beaten, and it is
thought that one, James Powderly, will
die.
The strikers encountered no serious
opposition at any of the camps until
they reached that of the Mccormick
Construction Co. They were met by
Mccormick himself, and he told them
not to do any damage to the property.
They began to hurl rocks at him, strik-
ing his horse and bruising him. Nc
Cormick retreated and procured Win
chester rifle, at the sight of which they
left. His men, however, are all quiet
At Mason, Hogan & Kings camp, the
rioters struck and wounded Peter King,
a brother of the contractor. A freight
train on the Santa Fe killed one of the
strikers, who was on the track near
Romeo. The strikers number about
1000 men, 1000 of them being employed
on the drainage canal. The cause OF
the strike is that the stone companies
reduced the wages from 1719 cents to
Is cents per hour.
