FIERCE WESTERN STORM
1t Caused Great Damagein Chicago
and Other Cities,
FEARFUL VELOCITY OF THE WIND,

At Toledo, o., 1t Blew at the Rate Of
Eighty-one Miles an Hour-street Cars
Stalled In the Streets of Chicago-No
Fatalities Reported.
CHICAGO, Nov. 27-The storm which
preceded the present cold snap here was
one of the worst that ever struck this city.
The wind blew gale. Railroad traffic
was greatly delayed, while the street car
companies were forced to abandon some of
their minor lines, devoting their energies
to keeping the main lines open. Dispatches
received here show the same state of af
fairs throughout Illinois. Quincy reports
a bowling blizzard with snow falling fast,
impeding street and railroad traffic and
similar reports come from PEORIA Fair
bury and other parts of the state
Passengers on the Calumet Electric
Street railroad were snowbound in a desc
late portion of the city, and some of them
were compelled to remain all of Monday
night in the cars, being unable to reach
their homes in South Chicago. Car No.
II, which runs over South Chicago ave
nue., was stalled at 10 o'clock Monday
night and remained there until morning
with five passengers, in addition to the
motorman and conductor, on board. A
car of the Seventy fifth street line shared
q similar fate near Stony Island avenue,
Rs did also a south bound car at South
Chicago avenue and Ninety seventh street,
and another at Sixty-seventh street and
Vernon avenue. Each of the cars carried
passengers who spent the night aboard.
When the cars were first stalled they car
ried the usual number Of passengers, but
as the hours passed and no indications of
progress were given the majority of the
passengers left the cars and continued the
remainder Of the journey on foot Some
however, who lived a great distance re-
fused to leave the cars preferring to spend
the night in them to facing the storm.
On Lake Michigan the gale was very
severe and the sea running very high.
Comparatively few vessels are out at this
time of year, and it is not expected that
there will be much loss of life. If any.
About o'clock yesterday morning the
steamer j. Emery Owen ran aground with
two consorts, the schooners Michigan and
Glencoe. Just how the pilot lost his bear
ing is not yet known, but was undoubtedly
due to a binding snow storm In all there
were between fifty and seventy five people
on board the three vessels, all of whom
were rescued. Communication has
been established with a grounded vessel
off Glencoe and it has been ascertained
that none of the sailors are dead, though
all are suffering terribly from exposure.

BUFFALO, Nov. 27.-The gale here has
subsidized. The damage to various kinds
of property has been very great, but no
fatalities have occurred. Most of the loss
has been due to the high water in the
harbor, caused by the prevailing direction
of the wind The water in the harbor and
river has risen at least six feet. Squaw
Island was almost completely submerged,
and some of the residents forced to leave
their homes to the mercy Of the waves In
the Erie basin considerable damage was
done to the fleet of excursion steamers

storm seriously affected the trains sched-

from the east and the west pulled in the
Union depot behind time. The conductors
reported no serious trouble with the snow,
the delay being due TO crippled wire ser

Holmes Connsei in {. Bad Plight

Philadelphia, Nov. 1S,-The argu-
ment for new trial for the convict
ed murderer, II. II. Holmes, was
heard to-day in the Court of Oyer
and Terminer, and this remarkable
case furnished another sensation.
One of the counsel for the prisoner
produced an affidavit in court alleging
to show that Pitezel, the murdered
man, contemplated suicide. Amidst
the silent amazement of the specta-
tors and the shocked astonishment
of the court, District Attorney Gra-
ham proved the affidavit to be false
and showed that Nr. Shoemaker, the
attorney for Holmes who offered it
had paid the woman who swore to it
$50 for doing SO. Shoemaker was
so overcome by this exposure that
he could make no explanation and
at the conclusion fthe argument he
was held in 81 1900 bail by the court
to answer to the charge of suborna-
tion of perjury.
Holmes was in court during the
argument and he has filled percep-
tibly in looks since his trial. lie
has lost the prison bleach which
paled his check and Il hectic flush
has taken its place. His eyes were
bloodshot and dark rings around
them told ofanXious days and nights.
His manner was not as cool and un-
concerned as it was during his trial
and he showed an almost feverish
interest in the proceedings. As
formerly, however, he retained his
self-possession and took notes of
the District Attorneys argument
and prompted his lawyer during his
address,
The argument consumed the en-
tire day aud the court reserved its
decision, but from the questions ask :
ed by the Judge it seems certain q
new trial will be refused.

Cannot H.siprisOn for Fines.

Judge Hare, in the court of quar-
ter sessions IN Philadelphia, on Sat-
urday rendered an important decision
in the haheas corpus case brought
by John Fay for release from tho
county prison. Fay was fined $40
by Magistrate Slevin, on September
23d last for peddling charcoal in the
streets without license, and COM
mitted to prison in default of the
fine. In overturning the magistrate's S
decision, commitment, and sustain-
ing Jaseph l.. Tnll. attorney for the
defense. Judge Hare said the fine in
such case was only a debt to the
city, and the Commonwealth had no
right to imprison the man tor debt.
The Judge said that if the city wants
ed to collect the mony they should
not do it by putting man in prison,
but sue him for it. Prisoner Fay
was consequently discharged from
lcustody.

The result of the recent election
in Sullivan county is reminder
that the young men of our county
are considering the weight of their
ballot and have come to the conclusion
that there is more wisdom in voting
for bread for the table and clothing
for their children than to continue
to vote the Democratic ticket be-
cause their fathers did so. The
National issues of to day are not the
same as thirty years ago. The Re-
publican and Democratic platforms
of to~day only differ on the tariff
question. The former advocates
that duty shall be levied on foreign
goods shipped and sold in this coun-
try, while the latter takes kindly to
our mother country and permits
her goods to enter the United States
free of duty. During the Republi
can administration this duty furnish
ed ample means to keep the wheels
Of our government in motion. Since
1892, our government has run be-
hind several million dollars. Which
is the better platform

The Buffalo Express Republican
paper says: "Tha Republican sue
cess in New York this year can be
called more distinctly tariff victory
than was that Of last year or two
years ago. While the Republicans
deserved popular Endorsement on
State issues, there was certainly
nothing in these to call out such an
enormous vote. The issue of Hill
ism and Maynardism may properly
be held to have warranted the great
outpouring of last year, but those
issues cut little figure this year So
far as the State ticket was concerned
the Cleveland Democrats worked as
hard for the Democratic candidates
rs the Hill men did. The Demo-
Gratis were badly divided on local
candidates, to be sure, but this
should have increased, rather than
lessened the vote on the State ticket.
1t is noteworthy, too, that the Res
publican victory was won this year
in the country among the farmers,
where Hlllism and Tammanyism are
but little understood. The Repub-
Leans went to Harlem Bridge with
the astonishing plurality of 144,OOO.
Last year, in an election for Cow
ernor, they took down to the Bronx
but 1877, 900. Two years ago, the
victory was won practically by Buf-
falo and Brooklyn, the country vote
barely offsetting the Democratic
majority on Manhattan Island. 1t
may be concluded that n very large
proportion of the men who voted the
Republican ticket this year did so
with the determination to remain
Republicans permanently. They
have had all they want Of democratic
rule. The farmers who lave been
selling potatoes at fifteen cents a
bushel, wool at ten cents pound
and wheat at fifty cents a bushel had
most to do with winning this tri~
urnph. Times have been growing
worse and worse among these men
with each new year Of Democratic
policies, and this accounts for the
evcrincreasing numbers in which
they are focking to the Republican
standard. They want the Mckinley
law restored,
