1t Does Much Damage In Missouri
and Kansas.
KANSAS CITY, May "a dispatch
from several towns in Missouri and from
one point in Kansas report the occur
ence this afternoon of a severe wind
storm of almost cyclonic proportions.
The storm was accompanied in every
instance by either hail or a downpour of
water amounting to almost a cloudburst.
No loss or severe injury is reported to
human life, but the telegraph wires are
down in the country surrounding towns
struck and when communication is re-
established it is not unlikely that it will
be discovered the storm has caused
fatality.
At Sedalia, Mo-, the wind surged under
the tent OF a circus and snapped the poles
like pipe-stems. The tent came down
with crash, burying 1900 people. They
screamed and struggled, and several
women tainted, but all were finally re-
moved from beneath the canvas. Several
received severe bruises, but no serious
injury.
At Brookfield, Mo-. the roundhouse of
the Hannibal and ST. Joseph Railroad
was demolished. A number of workmen
escaped without serious injury. Hail
accompanied the storm at New Cambria
and did considerable damage to crops.

CHICAGO, May 25.-Hon. p. H. Lannon
of Salt Lake City, National Worlds Fair
Commissioner and Chairman of the Com
mittee which investigated the Theodore
Thomas Music Bureau, being asked what
the net result of the investigation was,
said:
Simply what we asked in the first
place; that there be no more boycotting
of exhibitors or American musicians !:
that pianos of exhibiting firms, and those
alone, be heard in the Music Hall. The
Council Of Administration will revise
all programmes arranged by Thomas. to
be sure that American composers and
musicians will be heard in the future at
concerts. We never cared about Thomas
welding the baton. All the commission
asked was that Thomas should not be
allowed to use his evident prediction
for one house at the expense of all other
manufacturers of musical instruments in
America, and that he should be subject to
the National Commission through its
proper officer, the Director General. in
all matters, like any other employe. l
am satisfied now that the Objectionable
features of Thomas administration will
be eliminated by himself"

CHICAGO, May 25.-There was lively
debate over the Sunday opening ques-
ton at the meeting of the National
Worlds Fair Commission to-day. Humid
ley Of Alabama insisted that the major
ity report of the Judiciary, which was
turned down day before yesterday by the
substitution of the minority report, was
still before the commission for action.
He held that the minority report, al
though substituted, was not adopted,
and as consequence the majority report
must be acted upon.
Then confusion followed. st. Clair.
leading the Sunday openers, asserted that
when the commission failed to adopt the
minority report, which called for a modi-
tication of the directory resolution, it had
| disposed of the question, and conse-
quently the action of the Directory in
revoking the rule closing the gates on
Sunday must stand.
The Worlds Fair officials are lust now
having a good deal of trouble over the
question of awards.
At the meeting of the commission this
| afternoon, communication was received
from Director General Davis, informing
! the commission that he had received a
| notice from all foreign Commissioners of
the withdrawal of their exhibits from
competition for awards, as the system of
| judging proposed was wholly unsatis-
factory.
The withdrawal, signed by the repre-
sentatives of foreign Governments hav-
ing exhibits, was then read.
discussion followed as to whether the
matter should be referred to the Council
of Administration or the Committee on
Awards.
The whole matter has been referred to
the Committee on Awards.
Director of Works Burnham this even
ing issued an official order to the effect
that the gates of the Worlds Fair shall
be opened next Sunday. The order says:
The park will be opened to the public
on Sunday next, May 2Sth, until II p. NJ,
the buildings closing at 10 P. NJ. AT
present it is the intention to shut down
all machinery not absolutely required for
operation of the exposition plant. 1t has
not yet been decided tonight whether or
not religious services will be held in the

Simmons, minor, who sued by means
Of his guardian. In February Simmons,
who aspired to be an impressario, made
contract with an agent for Mackay and
Flood, the owners, to rent the Grand
Opera House for 81 200 per month, and
paid $500 in advance. The youthful man
ager's plans, however, went wrong, and
he sought to have the contract extended
so that he might engage the first grand
opera company available
The agent refused, and then Simmons
brought suit for the recovery of the
money already paid, on the ground that
he was minor and not competent to
make the contract. In the suit to-day he
established the fact that he was under
age, and the court decided the contract
invalid and rendered judgment in his
favor. Mackay and Flood will appeal.

Britannia, the Prince of Wales cutter.
There was grand race between the Brit
ANNA and the Valkyrie to get around
the Mouse lightship first, the Britannia
securing the honor by margin. The
Naikyrie, tritle quicker in the stays
than the Britannia, drew uncom-
monty close after the boats passed
the south end. The Britannia then
luffed to keep her opponent under
her stern. About went the Valkyrie.
and about went the Britannia. Thus
they proceeded all along the shore, luffing
in on each other, board after board. The
Prince of Wales demonstrated that he
had the better boat. the Britannia being
not only sitter, but also sailing a trife
closer to the wind. Finally the Britannia
stood out straight away for home with a
big gap between her and the Valkyrie.
Soon afterward the Valkyrie began clos
ing the gap, and was almost at the heels
of the Britannia when her topsail was
smashed. Then the bowsprit broke off
short, bringing down everything. She
had to lay to and refit almost entirelv
before proceeding.

NO MORE DOLLARS.
The Carson Mint to Suspend Coinage
After June 1St.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-Owing to the
small amount of gold bullion deposited,
about 100000 per month, and the heavy
expenses of coinage at the mint at Car
son, Nevada, Secretary Carlisle has di-
rected the suspension of coinage at that
mint after June 1st. Gold and silver
bullion will, however, be received for
parting and refining.
Gold deposits will be paid for in coin or
fine bars, as preferred by the depositor
Returns for silver deposits will be made
in imported or fine bars as desired.
Purchases of silver bullion under the
Act Of July II, 1890, will be continued as
heretofore.
The forces in the mints at Philadelphia
and New Orleans will probably soon be
reduced.
With the suspension of coinage at
Carson City, coinage of silver dollars
will be discontinued for the present, as
there is no demand for this class of
