A TERRIFIC GALE.
Great Niagara Fruit Belt Damaged by
the Storm.

Great Niagara Fruit Belt Damaged by
the Storm.
NIAGARA FAILS, May 1S.-The great
Niagara fruit belt has been severely
damaged by the terrific gale which pre-
vailed all day yesterday.
The wind began early in the morning
to blow strong from the west and by
noon it was a bowling gale, which tore
young fruit off in clusters. The indica-
tions from the blossoms in the orchards
throughout this section, pointed to one
of the largest fruit crops in years. The
fruit was formed splendidlY. There has
been no frost and fruitgrowers were.con-
graduating themselves on the future,
when the gale came along and changed
the aspect of affairs.
Apples, pears and plums suffered the
most. So fierce was the gale, that whole
branches were torn from the trees.
Small fruits escaped without much dam
age. 1t is estimated that half of the
apple crop is lost and nearly as much in
pears and plums. Peaches suffered
some, but nothing near to what the
others did.

the arerst in Brooklyn Of a couple claiming
to be man and wife. The detectives charge
that they had given worthless checks and
