DEATH LIST REDUCED.

Fatalities From the Iowa Storm Less
Numerous Than at First Supposed.
SIOUX CITY, Ia, May 7.-Order is
coming out of chaos in the narrow dis
trict of Sioux county, which was swept
by the tornado on Friday afternoon.
Prompt aid has made the survivors Of
the devastated country as comfortable
as possible. Nearly all the dead are
now buried, and none Of the injured
now living are thought to be fatally
hurt. The Journals staff representa-
tive, ,cho went all over the ground
swept by the storm, says $40, 600 will
cover the property damage, including
houses, barns, outbuildings and fences.
In few places are the crops seriously
damaged, for grain cannot be up far
enough to be killed or lodged by the
wind, and the principal injury in the
fields was by the plastering of mud
which they received. This "mud
shower was a prominent part Of
The Phenomena Of the Storm,
but it seems that the power Of the
wind simply scooped up the black, wet
earth from the surface in several places
and distributed it over other fields.
The correct list Of dead numbers 10.
None have died since Saturday. About
20 persons were injured in Sioux
county.
The mayor of Sioux Center appealed
to Sioux City for aid and a public meet.
ing was held and arrangements made
for sending clothing and money. Off
cials of Sioux county, however, say it is
not needed; that all have been properly
cared for and the people of the neigh.
borhood are we'll able to do it. In the
whole of the territory covered by the
tornado but three farmers were renters.
All the rest were well-to-do and some
are wealthy.

AFTER THE GAMBLERS.

Milwaukee Preachers Attack the EVIL
From the Pulpit.
MILWAUKEE, May From more
than a score Of local pulpits volleys
were fired Sunday at "the gambling
evil in Milwaukee," This oratorical
symposium was the result of several
months OF quiet but effective work
upon the part of the Milwaukee Minis
ters' association. Detectives in the EN-.
ploy Of the, association gathered evi.
dence showing the existence of public
gambling in Milwaukee. The minis
ters laid this before Mayor Koch and
Chief of Police Jansen. and when
those officials declined to act they de-
cided by cooperative means to bring
the matter before the people. The min
listers charge that the gamblers have
the protection of the police and that
policemen have acted as guides to
gambling houses, receiving tips there
for.

NOT FOR HARRISON.

Prominent Republican Politicians Are in
League Against Him.
ST. PAUL, May IA special to the
Pioneer Press from Washington says:
AT a secret conference held here be-
tween seven of the best known Repub-
ican leaders Of the country, the presi-
dental outlook was carefully consid-
cred, and the conclusion reached to
support any one who could win, except
Benjamin Harrison.
The meeting was called by Senator
Quay of Pennsylvania. There were
present besides Quay, Thomas c.. Platt.
James s. Clarkson, Russell A. Alger,
Henry c. Payne of Milwaukee, Samuel
Fessenden of Connecticut and Charles
Foster of Ohio. All the prominent
presidential candidates in the Repubh-
can party excepting only Harrison are
represented in this list. For eight
years Quay, Platt, Alger, Clarkson,
Fessenden and Payne have formed a
sort of coterie within the Republican
party, always having perfect under
standing among themselves, and nearly
always working with the same purpose
in view.
Quay Is For Reed.
Quay called this meeting of his
friends in hopes of being able to con-
vince one or more of them that Reed is
the man they should all go in for.
Quay is much more earnestly in favor
of Reed than Platt is. Quay has an
idea that the silver question is moving
to overshadow everything else in the
next year and half, and on this rea.
s6oning he feels sure that it will be
much easier to nominate Reed and
elect him than to take up Mckinley
whose name is SO closely associated
with the cause of protection. Mr.. Plat
is inclined to agree with this view, but
SO far as can be learned no progress has
been made toward winning General
Alger away from Mckinley, or toward
inducing Clarkson to desert the Allison
standard
Information from behind the doors of
this president making conference is
that in the opinion of the participants
Governor Mckinley is now far in the
lead for the Republican nomination. In
fact, the impression appears to be
strong in the minds of the gentlemen
present in this conclave that it is Nc.
Kinley against the field. There are
also good reasons for saying that the
idea which Quay, Platt and others have
in mind is to get their friends togethe,
on some understanding which will en-
able them to run with the winner and
to make sure that this winner be not
Benjamin Harrison.

Now, how could plead not guilty
