Gordon a Physical Wreck.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May e.
The story of how Fulton Cor
don learned of his wife's intrigue
was disclosed day. Mrs. Cor
don had corresponded with
Brown in the name of Paralee
Mitchell, a negro servant. The
letter came addressed in the care
of Gordon at his Office. One day
last week he forgot to bring one
of the letters home and his wife's
uneasiness betrayed her. The
next letter was opened. When
a few days later Gordon put to-
gether the fragments of note
his wife had written, in which
she mentioned that his suspic-
ions had been aroused, Gordon
saw the word Tuesday on another
note. He got a friend to shadow
his wife Tuesday and the tragedy
followed.
Gordon is in bad shape and in
danger of losing his mind from
the ordeal he has had to under
go. Since his release from Jail
heshas repeatedly tainted while
in conversation with his attor-
neys, and is almost a mental and
physical wreck. Evidence is be-
ing gathered to show that Brown
fired the first shot. A bullet
hole in the door entered the wall
in direct line with the side of the
bed on which Brown lay.
The funeral of Brown took
place at Henderson to-day. It
was largely attended. The SER
vices we're simple and the sermon
brief. Business was practically
suspended.

WORK OF A CYCLONE.
Towns Destroyed. Houses Wrecked. Peo
pie Killed and Injured.

| pie Killed and Injured.
SIOUX City, May 3.-Sioux
county was devastated by a ter
rife cyclone this afternoon. The
storm came from the northwest
and struck Sioux Centre, a small
town forty five miles North of
Sioux Centre, a small town As
miles North of this point, at
o'clock. The telegraph reports
from the scene Of the storm were
very meagre, the wires being
down, but it is understood that a
| considerable number were killed
and injured. The first received
by the Sioux City and Northern
railroad from their agent at
Sioux Centre. The dispatch read
as follows:
ga cyclone passed three miles
northwest of here. A school
house near town was blown
down, teacher killed and injured.
The whole country in the track
of the storm is devastated. Sioux
City and Northern tracks be-
tween Perkins, and Doom are
washed out for several miles"
Dispatches from Sioux Centre
at $50 o'clock say that three
school houses and at least twenty
residences and barns near that
place were swept away. AT the
school houses two teachers and
three pupils we're killed and
many injured. One who escaped
says that at least a hundred peo-
pie must have been killed.
Parties have been sent out
from Hull, Sioux City and
Orange city, neighboring towns,
but their work is being carried
on in total darkness and in the
midst of a tremendous wind and
rain storm. 1t is consequently
progressing slowly. CA number
of bodies have already been re-
covered, although the exact num-
Der cannot be learned.
It is said that Perkins, small
town between Sioux Centre and
Doom, was directly in the path
of the storm and was almost en-
tirely wiped out. The wires
leading to it are all down. The
tracks are all washed out and
the roads cannot be safely tray
eled over, owing to the manner
in which they were guided by
the rain. It is consequently no
easy matter to reach it. Physi-
clans have already set out from
Hull, Orange city and Sioux Cen
tire, but are meeting with every |
conceivable obstacle in their eff
FORT to reach the scene of the
storm.
Late this evening news was
received from Sibley to the eff
feet that storm struck there at
5 o'clock p. M, destroying thel
house of John Watterson and in
juring Watterson and his son,
The Sioux City and Northern
train which arrived AT 10 o'clock
this evening brought several
passengers who witnessed the
storm. They reported that thir-
teen dead had been brought into
Sioux Centre at 6 o'clock p. m.
1t is estimated that fifty people
must have been killed. The Nor
thern train barely escaped
smash up in a washout near Doom,
but was stopped by section men
before it passed upon the dan
gerous territory.
AS near as can be ascertained,
the towns which suffered were
Perkins, Sibley, Doom, Hull and
Sioux Centre. There is every in
dication that the number of lives
lost will reach seventy five or a
hundred. -Four school houses
were destroyed while the schools
were in session.
