STORMS IN THE WEST

KANSAS CITY, May 10.-One of the
worst sand and dust storms ever known
prevailed in Oklahoma and at one or two
points in Kansas to-day At Pittsburg.
Kan. comparatively no outdoor work could
be accomplished. A dust storm blew nearly
the entire afternoon, cakng everything in
its path. The ground is baked and all crops
are suffering for want of rain. Here, as at
most points throughout Kansas yesterdays
heated spell was followed by drop in tenn
perature of nearly twenty degrees.
At Guthrie, o. T.. terrible windstorm
from the north struck the town this after
noon and the temperature fell rapidly. The
air suddenly became dark with dust and
sand and for a time the people sought
their cyclone cellars in fear of a twister.
Ten miles northeast of Guthrie the storm
did partake of a cyclone and much damage
was done, though as far as can be learned
tonight no person was hurt.

Basis of an A. II. L. Mans Accusation
Against John Mcbride.

COLUMBUS, o., May 10.-The investiga-
tion by the Trades ana Labor Assembly of
this city of charges preferred by Mark
Wild against John Mcbride is absolutely
secret, but the following. from an outside
source, is reliable, appearing in black and
white, and does not violate any confidence.
1t has been given to the committee. 1t
has reference to the $500 which was given
to Mark Wild by John Mcbride and which
as claimed by Wild. was a bribe. Wild as
a Debs man, had been leading a strike of
Hooking Valley railroad employees. The
coal miners strike had been settled and
the miners had returned TO work when
Wilds men stopped the coal trains. The
the money was raised by Mr.. Morris. Of
Cleveland, of the Norris Coal Company.
after the railroad strike had been set
tied. and in consideration OF the fact that
Mr.. Wild had advised settlement without
regard to himself and with the full know;-
edge that he should not be reinstated by
the Hooking Valley Railroad Company. The
railroad company had refused to listen 10
him and he had John Mcbride go to the
company in behalf of the railroad men.
The coal operators ensertained me- the opini5on
of a reward and that Ii would be wrong to
permit Wild and his family to suffer under
the circumstances. The state Board on AT
bitration committee. composed of business
men of Columbus and Nelsonville. also
substantially advised this action. The sub
ject was spoken of at public meeting in
Masonville. so there was not any effort
to cover the matter up. Mr.. Morris handed
the money to Mr.. Mcbride for the reason
that Mcbride had represented the railroad
strikers and was, therefore. the proper
channel through which the money should
pass. The money was promptly turned over
to Wild. who has never denied, but ad-
mitted having received it. The foregoing
is a complete history of the money charges
filed against Mcbride. The inquiry has
been temporarily suspended TO accommodate

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
The statement in your issue of to-day
that Mr.. w. Bourke Cochran intends be-
coming a member of the British House
of Commons at the approaching general
election can scarcely be true. as he is now
an American citizen, and he could not be-
come a member of the British Parliament
without taking the oath of allegiance TO the
british Crown. He could not become a
British subject for some years 10 come.
though il may be that IL he took the oath
when taking his seat I'm Parliament the
question of his being then actually Brit
ish subject might not come up IL would
be rather anomalous. though. IL one who
was still an American citizen were permit
ted to take his seat in the. House OF Com
mons. At the general election of 1880 it
was stated that Mr.: 0Kelly and other
Irish members then elected were American
citizens, and that they would be prevented
from taking the oath. but when they pre-
sented themselves in the House the oath
was administered without objection. IL
may be that a nexception was made because
they were at one time British subjects.

This place is the chosen stamping grounds
of the strikers and all the fights which
have occurred have originated there. AL
though no attempt TO prevent meetings is
made, the police are careful to prevent any
sort of gathering in the streets. The strik-
ers are rather more surly than before. and
the unceasng watchfuiness of the police
is not improving their tempers.
