ton to continue until the next conven-
ton, which it was decided to call on the

STORM IN MINNESOTA.
Three Lives Lost and Much Property s.
verelv Damned.

Three Lives Lost and Much Property Sc
verely Damaged.
St. Paul, Mimi, June s.-Reports re-
ceived in St. Paul up to midnight indi-
cate that the damage done by the
great storm will reach fully 100000.
The loss of human life is not yet
known, but three people are known
to have persisted. These are c. w. Cas-
Teton, of Ash Lake; E. w. Hunter, of
Adrian, and Moses Chadwick, of Mobiles
county. There were at least 1000 cat
tie, sheep, hogs and horses drowned
in southwestern Minnesota. The great
est casualties were at Luverne and on
the Rock river. Two cloudbursts struck
the latter in three hours. and the river
overhowed the country for miles.
Many people were forced to take to
trees or the roofs of their houses, and
q rescuing party was sent out for them
from Luyerne. The current was SO
swift that the rescuers were over
turned and themselves rescued with
great difficulty. A second party saved
20 or 80 people who were in grave
peril. Many business houses were
flooded in Luverne. Across the bor-
der, in South Dakota, at least 10000
acres of grain were ruined by flooding.
Several houses and elevators were
blown down at the town Of Chapel, s.

pERvjShES DEFEATED
Garrison At Firket Routed by the ERyp
isns-l,OOO Men Killed.

Garrison At Firket Routed by the Egypt
isns-1, 900 Men Killed.
5 Firket, Egypt, June s.-This point
was taken by tho Egyptian troops at
an early hour Sunday morning, and
their manner of acquitting themselves
in this, the first engagement of the Nile
campaign, has given great satisfaction
to the British officers in command of
them. The Egyptian forces left Aka
sheh, the Egyptian outpost, Saturday
night. The movement was q surprise,
as it seemed to have been determined to
hold Akasheh as an outpost until the
season was passed and the period ar
rived for the advance upon Dongola in
the latter part of August or September.
The force responded promptly to orr
ders, however, and was soon under way
for this point. The distance is 20 miles
and it took the whole night to &C.
complish the march.
The arrival of the Egyptians at the
dervishes' camp took the enemy com
pletely by surprise. They quickly raj
lied, however, and rushed to their arms.
Far from being routed by the first
skirmish of the attack, they stood their
positions and made stubborn defense
of their camp for an hour and a half.
during which there was hard fighting.
The dervishes were finally put to route
by flank movement executed by the
cavalry. Reports received indicate that
the loss to the dervishes will amount to
1000 men. Among those killed is Emir
Hammuda, who was their commander,
besides many important chiefs. The
Egyptian loss in the fight was 20 killed
eight wounded. Hundreds Of dervishes
were taken prisoners.

CLEvELAND'S VETO.
1t II Anxed to the General Deiclenc,


1t II Adaxed to the General Deficiency
Bill.
Washington, June s.-The president
sent veto message to the house of
representatives on the general defcien-
cy appropriation bill Saturday after
noon. He replies briefly to the criti-
cisms of his exercise OF the veto power
and says he has hurried the prepare
ton Of the message in order that con-
gress may take action in the matter
without delay. The ground for the
veto, is the provision maze relating to
the payment Of the French spoliation
claim.
Speaker Reed laid before the. house
the presidents veto of the general de-
ficiency bill, and it was read. From the
applause which swept over the hall at
the close Of the reading it was appar-
ent that the message met nearly gen
eral approval.
The greater part Of the afternoon ses-
sion was devoted to the presidents veto
OF the general deficiency appropriation
bill. It was vigorously attacked by
Messrs. Mahon (rep.. KY and Gros-
yenor (rep., o. and defended by Messrs.
Cannon (rep.. n.y.. Dockery (dem.,
NO. and sayers (dem., Tex.) and finally
sustained by vote Of 40 to 80.
