MEMPHIS. Tenn, April 14.-Robin-
sonville, Miss, a small town twenty
miles south of Memphis, was entirely
demolished by a tornado Wednesday
evening. Seventeen people are killed
and half hundred wounded.
A few minutes after the tornado
struck the town fire broke out in the
debris of Chinese laundry and the
mass of wreckage caught and burned
all night and yesterday. Several
bodies of those killed by the falling
buildings were burned to a crisp
One storm from the east and one
from the west met over the town and
began rotary motion, which tore
huge trees like weeds. The tornado
moved from the Mississippi river dis
lance of seven miles, and swept all be-
fore it
Emma Lusk, wife of the night tele-
graph operator, was in her house with
her husband and three children. The
husband got out, the woman was killed,
and the three children were blown q
hundred yards through the air. They
we're naked when found, but unin-
jured.
Isaac Chapman was crushed under
the ruins of his house and burned
along with three other negroes, whose
names are unknown.
The body of one old negress was
found yesterday in an open field. It
is probable she was dropped there by
the wind.
The property loss in the town will
reach 800, 900.
Thirteen stores, twelve residences,
and a hundred negro cabins were de-
stroyed.
The killed are:
Mrs. Emma Lusls, wife of the night

a SIGNIFICANT SHOWING.
Public Opinion stu in FsvOr Of the Dem
ocratic Party.

Public Opinion Still I'm E0vOr Of the DEM
ocratic Party.
On the whole, the democrats have
done well in the spring elections. Chi
cago elected democratic mayor in
spite of the formidable revolt in the
party against the nominee. In Cincin-
natl and other Ohio towns the demo-
Gratis divided the offices with their OPP
ponents, and got fair share. In st.
Louis the republicans got all the Offices
but one, and this is about the only vic
tory of which they have . right to
boast. Rhode Island has given dem
ocratic plurality for governor; and has
elected two democratic congressman,
both of whom were in minority at the
November election
These results are all the more signid-
cant when we compare them with the
April elections four years ago. The re-
publicans had them just succeeded in
displacing the democrats, who had had
control of the executive branch Of the
federal governments, For four years The
distribution of patronage was in active
progress then, as now, only repubiicaus
were taking the, places of democrats.
instead of democrats succeeding repuf1-
icans. The spring elections OF 1889
showed q remarkable revolt against tine
party that had just succeeded to power.
Chicago, which two years before had
elected republican mayor by 10000
majority, chose a democrat by 12,O00..
Cincinnati, which had given Harrison q
big majority, divided! the Offices, ST.
Louis went democratic;, and majority
OF the town elections,in Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois and Iowa showed democratic,
gains. Rhode Island, which had given
Harrison 4, 436 plurality i'm November.
1888, gave democratic: plurality Oft
AIS. It is true thattthe conditions. of
suffrage had just been changed in that
state, and number of new voters ado
mitted, but the republican, vote, which
had been 20,76 in April, 1883, fell off
to 1880 in April, 1889, while. there was,
large increase in the democratic vote..
ALI these things, taken together,
were. construed by democrats to mean
that the people were notsw satisfied
with the new administration The re-
publican press tried to ridicuie this in,
depreciation, but mark what, followed.
Ohio, elected democratic governor in
the, November following: Indiana,
which went republican, ms 1888, has
been carried by the democrats every
year since. The same may. be said of
Illinois Iowa elected a. democratic
governor in 1889, and reelected him in
1891. The symptoms of dissatisfaction
were,, therefore, correctly. interpreted
in the spring of 1889, by the democratic
press, inasmuch as subsequent. events
fully supported what it then said
The elections of this spring aroA sig.
nifcant to this extent. that they fail to
show any marked change in public
opinion since the November election.
The democratic party. retains, the con-
fdence of the masses Of. the people,

PARTRIDGE, THE PLUNGER,
Given q Bit Of Breathing Spell by the

Given a Bit Of Breathing Spell by the
Chicago Bull Clique.
CHICAGO, April 13.-Ed Partridge
and his fellow-shorts in the May wheat
market are given breathing spell by
the bull clique. Partridge says posi-.
lively that he will not settle because
the beneficiaries would be the engineers
of the deal. The bulls. however, are
in position where they can daily
with the little trader and are appar-
emily only awaiting the proper time to
administer to Partridge the coup de
grace. which will put him out of his
misery.
Last nights closing price for May
wheat was s71< cents, and the opening
this morning was a half cent under the
close, with the market in suspense and
ready to respond to the least manipu-
lation. Prices began to get sick,
shortly after the opening, and an hour
later had declined to the S0-cent point.
At noon May had declined half
cent, and was very unstable product
around 81 to s11f cents
July had the most attention paid to-
it, with the exception of a few min.
utes, and the price broke from the
opening figures of 7eL to 1854. and
swayed to that point twice, fingered
around the next even marking, and,
closed at 7eX.
"a rumor was developed that Armour.
had come to Pardridge's relief. When
asked il Armour had come to his assist
ance Mr.. Partridge said: 81 am not
going, to say anything about that.
Most Of my wheat is margined to 81.
I got. the money without going to my.
real estate. OF course am not going
to say where"
It is said Partridge had some tall
hustling between the close of the ex-.
change yesterday and sun down MAX
ng private settlements with Eggleston
and others for nearly 2,OOO,0OO bushels.
and releasing considerable money
which he could use this morning.
C. A. Pillsbury, who arrived from
Minneapolis yesterday, made several
trips between the offices of his brokers'
and John Cudahy's office to-day. 1t is

that he had not brought money enough
with him, and had to make a. big. ster-
ling draft on his English partners
His shortage was estimated at 30,O0A-
zoe to SO, 900, 600 bhshels.

STILL UNSETTLED.

Hawaii still remains quiet, and there
is nothing in the latest reports from
there to indicate that an uprising of any
nature may be expected. Minister Will
lis has not yet shown his hand. He
may hold a trump card which, when
played, may cause CONSERVATION some
where around the board.
1t is possible that he holds two sets OF
instructions and is waiting for the signal
as to which to follow out. President
Cleveland is shrewd and skillful in every
play that he directs, and there is no
doubt but that he is showing a master
mind in this matter. If he has acted as
he has to feel the pulse Of the people,
any premeditated action which might
have been taken under certain conditions
can be changed and the public be none
the wiser of it.
It's big game that is being played,
and we trust President Cleveland for
winning every time.

A GOOD PLATFORM.

Major Bacon has introduced in the leg
islature a series of resolutions declaring
for gold and silver as money for final
payment, and that there should be no
limit to the cJinage of either less than
the products of the mines of this coun-
try; declaring for state banks, custom
duties for revenue only, and an income
tax.
This is generally regarded as the Ma
ior's platform in his race for the senate.
It is a good one, too, and would be hard
to improve upon.
