ALL WERE CONVICTED.

Verdict in the Indianapolis National Bank
 Wrecking Case-Reedy and the Two
 CofIins Guilty Of Aiding and Abetting
 Theodore F. Haughey. President of the
 Defunct Bank, in Wrecking the Institu-
 tion.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 29.-The fed eral courtroom was packed at a. m. to hear the verdict in the cases of F. A. Coffin, r. E. Coffin and A. s. Reed, charged as officers of the Indianapolis Cabinet Go. with aiding and abetting Theodore P. Haughey, president of the wrecked Indianapolis national bank, in the footing of that institution. The verdict was guilty as to all three.
 The verdict finds the two Coffins guilty on all the forty-seven counts in the indictment, charging them with aiding and abetting President Haughey in misapproariating the funds of the bank to the extent of s375, GOO; of mak- ing deposits of worthless paper, against which enormous sums of money were drawn, and of making a deposit of S44,- 900 of fictitious paper in May, 1893, just prior to the banks fail ure, in order to cover up an over draft and deceive the government bank examiner. A. $. Reed is convicted on counts 37 to 46, which charge that he aided in making false entries on the books of the bank. The defendants displayed no emotion on hearing the verdict. Their bonds were increased, and they will go free pending the out come of a motion for a new trial or an appeal to the United States supreme court.
 Theodore P. Haughey, the president of the defunct bank, has already pleaded guilty, and will be sentenced in the near future.

THE LABOR TROUBLES.

The Anarchist Leaders of the La saIie
 Strikers Advocating the Use of Dynamite
 Warrants Sworn Out for Sixty of the
 Leading Rioters. Four of Whom Were
 Arrested Ycsterday-A Missing Deputy
 Sheriff.
 LA SALLE. H., May 2s.-The strik. ing fraternity of this vicinity are very much excited tonight over the numer. ous arrests made by the sheriffs depu' ties, and many threats of trouble have been made. The agitators among the strikers are making an effort to arouse the anarchistic element to riot or to destroy the militia by bombs, on the grounds that the prison CTS being taken are persecuted and abused: that they are compelled to slave for the militia and are being abused by them.
 The leading rioters to the number ot sixty have warrants sworn out for their arrest and in the hands of the deputies. This afternoon and evening ten of that huber have been captured and placed in the military guardhouse. This batch will be locked up in the county jail in Ottawa tomorrow, as will the arrests of each day until all are behind the bars.
 They are principally Russian Poles and notorious characters. Batrowski, the suspected deputy, who was so bad ly beaten by the rioters Friday last, is missing, and the authorities believe he has been foully dealt with or spirited away to prevent prosecution. His body has been searched for in the Hi nois river.
 Sheriff Lentz, of Marshall county, visited Camp Matthiessen tonight for the purpose of requesting Sheriff Taylor to petition Gov. Altgeld for permission to allow Sheriff Taylor to send some troops from La Salle to quell the rioters who have been wrecking trains. He has acceded to the demand and will wire Gov. Alt geld tonight. The Illinois Central road will furnish special train, and the troops will undoubtedly move ip the morning.

ANOTHER FEUD
Started by . Fatal Shooting Array at
 Pilot Rock, Ky.

Ho%xrSsvIrLE, Ky, May 2o.-One man was killed and another perhaps fatally wounded in a shooting affray at a country store near Pilot Rock, miles from here. Noel Edwards had been at the store and started for home on horseback. On the way he was assault ed by Samuel Martin, neighbor, with whom he had previously had some words. Edwards resented the assault and drawing a pistol fired upon Mar tin, killed him almost instantly. John Martin, brother of the man who was killed, and James c. Edwards, father of Noel Edwards, who were present in the road at the time, then took up the fight, and rapid exchange of shots followed. In the battle James Ed wards was seriously wounded, and 1t is feared he win die. Noel Edwards horse was killed under him. Noarrests have been made, and as bad blood has been stirred up between the two families further trouble may follow.

TORNADO STATISTICS.
Some Figures Compiled by Observer
 Hayes, at Wellington, kas.

Hayes, at wellington, has.
 WELLINGTON, Kas., May 29.-E. Hayes, local observer of the state weather serv- ice, has made a special study of torna- does and tornado statistics. He figures from the reports of 1867 recent torna- does that the average length of the tor nado track is 25 miles, the average width 1869 feet, and the average veloc- ity A miles. April, May, June and De- cember are the months in which three fourths of the tornadoes occur, and the hours of greater frequency of the wind-twisters arc between 3:3O and : D. m. Of the 1867 tornadoes from which these statistics were drawn in 233 cases the tornadoes were very de- structive of property. The statistican has marked 3s4 tornadoes as simply de- structive. In twelve of the cases towns were destroyed.
 Although Kansas is more widely feared for its tornadoes, Mississippi leads the list of fatalities from that cause, with death record of 935. Mis- Souri's death rate has been 247; Iowa, 175; Illinois, 36s; Minnesota, 164; Ohio, 154; Pennsylvania, 142; South Carolina, 1O4; Texas, 1O2; Wisconsin, HI. Deaths from tornadoes in Kansas have mum. bered but 76.

 Those officers of the navy who de- signed her and watched her construc- tion from keel to masthead believe that she will prove a superior vessel, and will watch with interest for the trial trip at sea, when it is believed that she
 WILL DEVELOP PHENOMENAL SPEED for ship of her class. As to stanch ness of her hull and ability to carry the heavy battery which is intended for her. there is not doubt, for the construction work done by expert me- chanics employed by the day is sure to be better than that done by contract. The ship is now tied up to the dock at the foot of Main street. All the con- struction work is completed, A few navy-yard workmen are still employed on board.
 PUTTING ON FINISHING TOUCHES, but she is practically completed. The Cincinnati is still under the command of Rear-Admiral Gherardi. but June 14 he and his staff officers will go on board, and. after reading the order received from the navy department will deliver the command of the ship over to Capt. Henry Glass. The officers selected for duty on the Cincinnati by the chief of the bureau of navigation at Washing ton are
 THE PICK OF THE NAVY.
 They are all men known in the serv ice for their ability to handle a big ship and fight it's guns. Capt. Henry Glass was detached from duty at the Mare Island navy yard, He has com. manded the gunboat Monocacy out of China and the training ship Constella. tion at the naval academy.
