tho sun crossing the line. but by the
atmospheric Influences.

Baltimore, Aug. IA wind storm of cyclonic proportions, accompanied by a heavy downpour of rain, visited this city this afternoon. Houses were unroofed, trees uprooted, windows smashed, tele- graph, telephone and trolley wires broken, and other damage done within a few minutes that will require weeks to re- pair. The most serious damage was the demolition of St. EliZabeth's Catholic church, in course of erection on East Bal timore street, corner of Patterson park.
 All parts of the city. suffered. The storm came from the northwest. It con tnued at intervals for three hours, but most of the damage was done shortly af- ter the storm, appeared. No fatalities have been reported. although it will be re- ma rka able if the falling trees, demolished out houses or flying house tops did not cause injuries which have not yet been heard of.
 The losses so far reported will amount to upwards of $50 1000. Just before the rain began the mercury at the weather observers office made a record-breaking drop of nine degrees in one minute. The highest temperature during the day was reached just before the storm broke, when 95 degrees was registered.

BIG FIRE IN NEWARK, N. J.
The Plant of the Central Stamping Compa-
 ny Damaged $50O,000.


 ny Damaged $5oO,000.
 New York. Aug 11.-One of the most destructive fires that has visited Newark, N. J., in many years occurred this after noon at the extensive works of the Gen. tral Stamping company The total loss is estimated at $500,000.
 The Central Stamping company is the Newark branch of the tin trust, which has offices in this city and manufacturing plants in St. Louis and other cities. The fire originated n the center of the man building, gained great headway and soon the whole main building was a mass of flames. Cinders fell thickly on neigh boring roofs, and men with buckets of water and hose were kept busy putting out incipient fires. Finally the walls of the main building fell in, several fire men having narrow escapes. The fire swept through the brick extensions and adjoining buildings belonging to the plant and completely ruined them.
 Several frame buildings near the works were crushed in by the falling walls. Fireman John Vanhouten was badly burned by burning tar. James Packer, who was on the roof of the house putting out the sparks, was also badly burned. The firm had large stock on hand, the works having been running on full time, and the buildings were full of valuable patented machinery.
 Senator Ketcham of Essex county, who is secreary and treasurer of the com pany, said the loss would amount to $500,000. The insurance is $250,OOo. The cause of the fire is unknown. About 4S0 hands are employed in the building
