Fierce Running Battle on the Streets of

CHICAGO; July Elm Western des-
perado style man supposed to be
@. b. Cole assaulted and attempted to
rob D. @. McGloin, in his saloon at ca
Adams street, in the heart of the bust
ness district of Chicago last evening.
After seriously wounding McGloin the
thief escaped and made the most re-
markable race for liberty ever seen in
the streets of Chicago. After firing
into the mob that pursued him, and
seriously wounding three citizens, he
was run down and killed by Officer
Rosenthal, opposite the entrance of the
Auditorium hotel on Congress street.
The dead: c. E. Cole.

FIVE PEOPLE KILLED.
DEADLY TORNADO AT BAX-
TER SPRINGS, KAN.
Three Of One Family KlIled-Twenty
Others Severely Injured--Nearly Every
Building Demolished or Damaged by
the Fury of the Storm.

Fort SCOTT, Kan, July ga tor
nado accompanied by violent rain
storm, which was as destructive as a
waterspout, swept through the heart
OF Baxter Springs Friday night, demol-
ishing residences, stores and churches,
killing FIVE persons and injuring
twenty more, several probably fatally.
The dead are:
H. HIBBs.
MRS. WEBSTER, her 4-year-old daugh-
ter and her mother.
JAMES NEAL.
MEALS mother and A. Il. HANBUcK
were fatally injured, and several
others may die.
The storm struck the town about 6
o'clock and continued for two hours.
1t was not anticipated and no prepare
tions had been made to resist it. When
it had abated and the work of rescue
was begun, dozen homeless families
were found on the streets or in the
ruins of their homes
Mrs. Webster and her mother and
daughter were found in their wrecked
house.
Hibbs was killed in his house.
The Baptist, Methodist and Christian
churches were all wrecked. Cooper g.
Hodgkirk's brick store building, the
best structure in town, was almost de-
molished, one wall and rear end being
blown in, destroying the stock of dry
goods. Nearly every other building in
the town was destroyed or badly dam
aged.
Twenty-seven box cars were blown
from the Kansas City, Fort Scott and
Memphis track and the freight and
passenger depots were almost demol-
ished and much damage resulted.
In shaft 40 of the Kansas and Texas
Coal company at Weir City, where
many miners were engaged, the water
rushed in with such rapidity that the
miners barely escaped with their lives.
Every mule in the shaft was drowned.
The creeks were SWOLLEN beyond
their banks within a few hours and
fuller reports from the country round
about cannot but bring news of loss of
life and property from the combined
forces of wind and water.
The Memphis railroads wrecking
train and bridge crews were called
from this city this morning to repair
its depots at various points and small
washouts which will not interfere
with traffic.

The Kansas FLAX Crop.

LEAvENwoRTH, Kan, July S.-J. w.
Hirst, manager of the Leavenworth
Linseed Oil mills, who has travelled all
over the flax growing district of Kan
sas during the past thirty days, reports
that the acreage this year is about
10000 acres-between ten and twenty
per cent greater than that of last year.
In 1894 the yield was l,O43, 900 bushels.
This year it will probably be close to
], g5O, 900 bushels.

Kansas and Nebraska Crops.

OMAHA, Neb., July O.-In Western
and Eastern Kansas and Southern Ne
braska the small grain is now being
cut. The railroad people see in this
fact hundreds of cars of freight and
the beginning of good times again.
Travelling freight agents of local roads
say that there will be more grain
handled this year by the Nebraska
roads than has been handled before
for three or four yerrs, and that the
crop of corn alone will be prodiyious.
Small grain will also be much heavier
than for many previous years.

HAVOC
NINETEEN LIVES LOST AT
WINONA. MO.
Thirty Buildings DestrOyed-The s<Orm
Came Up In the Night and Swept
Away Everything in Its Path-A Min
lister and His Family Perish.

SPRNeFIELD, Mo-, July 9.-About 10
o'clock Friday night terrible cloud
burst occurred on the mountains above
Winona, sawmill town in Shannon
county, on the Current river branch of
The Kansas City, Fort Scott and Mem
phis railroad, and the flood, gathering
in the valley in which Winona is stu
lted, swept down in mighty wall of
water, destroying thirty buildings,
stores and dwellings as though they
were cardboard and causing the deaths
Of at least eleven persons, while eight
more are missing and there is little
aoubt that these also persisted.
Those positively known to be dead
are as follows:
The Rev. G. w. Duncan, Mrs, G. w.
Duncan, Matte Duncan, small child,
Mrs. Crawford, married daughter of
the Rev. and Mrs. Duncan, Crawford
Cert, George Nevins, Mrs. Nevins,
Norma Nevins, a little daughter of
Lloyd Wright, Maggie Cannon and
John Norris.
The bodies of Rev. G. w. Duncan,
his wife and daughter, George Nevins,
were recovered, but the others have
not been found. A slashing rain pre-
seded by stunning wind set in at o
o'clock. While the wind closed the
rain increased intensely until at 10
o'clock it became a tumult At 1915
four feet of water was on the streets.
In fifteen minutes more buildings
Dould no longer stand the strain and
began to careen and dissolve in the
waters. Vivid flashes of lightning
pierced the downpour which came
like the falls of Niagara. Houses were
smashing and in the waters were hun
dreds of men, women and children.
When the torrent had in a degree
subsidized, the men who had seen to
their own families, turned their atten-
ton to others, and by o'clock in the
morning the worst was over Those
who had escaped the sweep of the de-
vastation stood shivering without
clothing or without an opportunity to
dry themselves When day dawned
there was nothing of their homes in
the town. There was no shelter, no
food, no clothing.
As soon as the destroyed telOgraphic
communication was restored Mayor h.
;. Evans telegraphed to surrounding
towns for aid.
Rev. G. w. Duncan, who lost his life,
was pastor of the Winona circuit and
was but recently ordained. He was
formerly an engineer on the Iron
Mountain railroad.
Winona was the principal town in
Shannon county both as to business
and population, having about 700 pop
ulation. The Current River railroad,
q branch of the Memphis route, runs
east and west through the county in
the Hutton valley, and surrounding
the town is great pine lumber region.

Young Girl Murdered.

MARSHALL, Ind, July 9.-The II
year-old daughter of Daniel Shanks, u
farmer living seven miles east of this
place, was murdered last Saturday
night. She failed to return home that
night, and yesterday morning her
brother went in search of her and
found her dead body in pool of water
in the woods not far from the house.
Suspicion rests upon a neighbor,
married man, and the brother of the
dead girl went to his house, called him
out and shot at him, missing him, how
ever. The excitement is intense in
that neighborhood.

Terrific Rain at Peabody.

PEABODY, Kan, July "a terrible

years. The Doyal rose about eight
feet in three hours and many bridges
are in danger of being washed out.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 9.-Swarms

No Ban on the G. A. R.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 9.-Archbishop
Kahn has made a decision that re-
moves the ban placed by some priests
on Grand Army funerals. Under his
ruling, members of the G. A. r. at
tending funerals may enter the church
wearing their uniforms and insignia,
and may conduct funerals in accord
ance with their ritual in Catholic
cemeteries.

Suicide with a Hammer.

ST. JAMES, Mimi, July 0.-One of
the most horrible tragedies ever en-
acted in this county occurred here yes
terday. George P. Johnson, clerk of
the court of Watonawan county and
prominent in state politics, committed
suicide by pounding his brains out
with a clawhammer. After beating
his head almost to pulp he finished
his awful work by clawing his head
to pieces with the opposite side of the
hammer. Mr.. Johnson was com
mitted to the asylum about a year ago.
