Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.

CHEROKEE (la.), July Ga destructive
cyclone passed through the south part
of the Cherokee country this evening,
hewing path ranging from quarter to
three miles in width, and extending some
twelve miles in the country. Reports of
fourteen deaths and large number of in
jured have already been brought to this
city. The path of the storm is marked
by complete desolation, houses, barns
and fences being swept away, crops
ruined and large number of farm ami
mails killed. The course of the storm
was eastward, but how far it extended
cannot be ascertained, as the wires are
down few miles east of this city.
CYCLONE IN MINNESOTA.
LAKEFIELD (Minn.), July Ga cyclone
struck here last night, doing considerable
damage to buildings. Several lives are
reported lost in the country, but definite
details have not been received.
GRAFTON IN. D.. July Ga strip two
miles wide and many miles long was
completely destroyed by hail yesterday.
TORNADO IN IOWA.
ALTA Qowa), July 6.-Meager reports
Just received indicate that a terrible tor
nado passed about four miles south of
this place between Aurelia and Dwell.
Fourteen persons are reported killed and
a large number injured. A telegram
from Fonda states that five entire fami-
lies were blown away, but no list of the
fatalities can be had. d. T. Miller is
known to have been killed. Mrs. Gordon
was killed instantly by the wreck of her
house, and nothing can be found of the
family of seven. No trace can be found
of Ed Sargent and his family of five.
They are supposed to be dead. Sam
Hersham, wife and two children are
missing, all blown away and thought to
be dead.
Trains arriving from the East on the
Illinois Central came into the city with
all the glass i'll the cars broken. The
trainmen say they ran through a severe
hailstorm, but encountered no great
wind.
At Quimby, little town east of Chero-
kee, many houses are reported wrecked,
and at least two persons are known to
have been killed. They are: Mrs. Allen
WarburtOn and Mrs. Molyneux. When
the news can be had from the country it
is expected that the loss of life will be
found to have been greater, as the region
through which the cyclone passed is
thickly populated.

WASHINGTON, July Cdr. Guzmann,
the Nicaraguan Minister, to-day called
upon Secretary Gresham and presented
his letters of recall. He communicated
to the department the fact that the Mica
raguan Government will abolish legations
In all save few countries in South and
Central America. This action is under
stood to be based on economical consid-
erations. AS matter of international
comfy, diplomatic representation in one
country with other is expected to be reci-
procal. 1t is thought unlikely, however,
that this course will be pursued with
Nicaragua. American interests in the
canal are so important that Lewis Baker
of Minnesota, present Minister to Mica
ragua, will probably be requested to re-
main.

FOOTPADS AT WORK
An Aged Man Beaten and Robbed of
Thirty Dollars.

Late last night two roughs approached
an aged man named John Shay, who had
but few hours previous arrived in the
city from Napa, and asked il he was look
ing for work. Being answered in the
affirmative they told him they could pro-
cure him a job herding cattle, and they
would show him the residence of a man
who would no doubt give him employ
ment. Shay went with the strangers, who
led the way to the alley, K and L, Fourth
and Fifth. When in the darkness the thugs
pounced upon Shay, one of them beating
and choking him, while the other went
through his pockets, relieving him of $50.
At late hour this morning no arrests
had been made.

by making some sort of official statement
regarding the Presidents condition"
s'The President is all right" said the
doctor, emphatically.

s'He's suffering from rheumatism, just

Homestcadites Anticipate Trouble,
but None Occurs.
HOMESTEAD PENN, July 6. Wild
rumors went the round last night. To-
day is the anniversary of the Carnegie
strikers battle with the Pinkertons, and
it was given out it would be commemo-
rated by an attempt to burn the mills and
other like incendiary acts would be COM
mitted; that the militia was under arms,
etc. AS a consequence the streets were
thronged all night, very many not going
to bed at all.
1t appears the fears were entirely
groundless, however, as the mills are in
full operation to-day and there is nothing
unusual in appearances. A picnic in the
grove, few speeches this evening and
flowers on the graves of those killed in
the encounter are the only commemora-
tions of the event.
