Melilla is a well fortified convict station
at the mouth Of the Rio del Orc, about
$50 miles east Of Centa, and the garrison
there, as at the other Spanish stations
along the coast, is in chronic state OF
conflict with the natives. The Riffians
are fanatical Moslems, and the building
by the Spaniards of a new fortress on
the burial place of a Mohammedan saint
is said 10 have caused the insurrection.
The tribesmen fight with great bravery
and utter disregard Of consequences, and

be required to successfully end the war.

YESTERDAYS STORM.
1t Extended Over Wide Section
of the Country.

Locally the Damage Is CONFINED 20 the
CrOps--uundreds Of Bushels of Apples
stripped from the Trees--GreSt Loss of
Life on the New Jersey Coast.
The severe storm of wind and rain which
prevailed here Thursday forenoon was the
outer edge, or represented the expiring
force, of a great cyclonic disturbance,
which was central on the Virginia coast
Wednesday evening, and which moved
north with great rapidity, spreading de-
struction in It's path.
The most serious effects of the storm
were felt in New Jersey, Long Island, the
vicinity of New York city, and in Connect
icut. Fully two score of lives were lost on
the New Jersey coast, and the shores for
many miles are strewn with wreckage of
crafts that met destruction early in the
morning. -Four schooners carrying 80 men
are known to be lost with all on board,
and a fishing boat was dashed on the beach
at Asbury Park and four men persisted.
As there were many fishing smacks on the
coast during the storm, reports of further
loss of life are expected.
= In Connecticut the wind was the most
severe in the history of the signal service
office, which was established 20 years ago
Three hundred of the large elm trees at
New Haven were blown down. All through
the state come reports of damaged build
ings, trees blown down, telegraph wires de-
| stroyed, and immense loss from destruction
| of crops. Whole peach orchards were de-
stroyed and all kinds of fruit was stripped
from the trees. Trains were delayed, those
between Springfield and Hartford not run
ming for several hours.
The wind as it swept through the valley
TO Brattleboro and vicinity was of almost
unprecedented severity at this season.
Large branches were torn from many trees,
and trees were uprooted. Half of large
locust tree fell upon the water-cure build
ing on Elliot street and knocked off the
chimney. A falling pear tree broke down
door at Mr.. Harris's house on Washing
ton street. Trees in the rear of Mr.. Her
ricks house fell across the railroad track.
The top of young elm in Col. Hooker S
yard was twisted of.
The wind and rain together beat large
quantity of fruit from the trees, and corn
and grain we're blown over. News from
different parts of the county, however, in.
dicates that the loss to the corn crop may
be less than was anticipated, as the corn
was nearly ripe and much of it will
straighten up. The farmers will lose many
hundred bushels of apples. A report from
the town of Nottingham was received al
the hour of going to press that indicate:
that the wind must have been more severe
there than in the Connecticut valley
Corn fields were blown over and twisted in
every direction, and fruit stripped clear
from the trees. The loss in this towI
alone will amount to thousands of dollars

the sham Murder Case.

A case where strong crcumstantial evil
dence has proved insufficient to convict
person charged with the crime of murder
has just been recorded in the courts of
Trenton, n. j. The main points in the
case were that young man named Sham
died last April, the cause of his death hav-
ing been assigned as gastritis. His moth
er was his only attendant during his i'll
ness, and she had taken out several insur-
ance policies on his life. Death came sud
denly, and there were so many suspicious
circumstances attending ii that the insur-
ance companies decided that an autopsy
should be held. Before the autopsy was
held, however, according to Mrs. Shann's
story, three masked men forced their way
into the room where the body lay, and car
ried off the lungs, stomach and heart of
the corpse. This extraordinary occurrence
did not battle the insurance companies, for
they secured parts of the stomach which
the alleged ghouls in their haste failed to
take, and in these were found more than
enough bichloride of mercury TO cause
death. The expert opinion was that the
boy had undoubtedly been poisoned, but
the prosecution appears to have failed to
convince the jury that the mother admin
istered the poison, and they acquitted her
without much hesitation.

lated. In Washington the report has been
current that he is suffering from Bright's
disease, but his friends positively deny that
this is the fact. Secretary Lamont de-

simply needs rest for an overtaxed system.

to the SatOlli-Corrigan controversy, and
frankly condemned fomenters of dissension
within the church in the United States.

How 1t Looks from Washington

Viewed from treasury standpoint, the
general financial situation of the country
shows improvement, slight, perhaps, but it
is believed permanent. Bank failures
have almost entirely ceased, and banks
that have been suspended under the finan-
cial stringency are resuming business.
Gold which poured out of the country is
returning, and a general feeling of conf
dence is being restored. The changed
condition was felt last week and has day
by day increased. Money is still scarce,
but not so scarce as it was, and it is esti-
mated that the S25, 900, 900 of gold which
has come back to this country has found
its way into the interior of the United
States. Much of 1t now figures in the
bank balances, and much has been absorb
ed by the trust companies. Government
revenues continue light. which shows that
less money than usual is being sent abroad
for foreign goods, which, under the circum-
stances, Is a good sign.
