CYCLONE STRIKES ALABAMA Wyeth City, Marshall County
 Wrecked by Wind. 15 WOUNDED, 6 FATALLY A Man and Woman Were Also Slain by the
 Lightning.
THE FuNNEL-sHAPED CLOUD WAS THERE
Work ot Rescue Going on, and It May De- velop That the Casualties Are Heav- fer Than First Estimated-Fea
 ful Power of the Storm.

Montgomery, June 9.-The pretty little
 town of Wyeth City, in Marshall county.
 on the Tennessee river, and some thirty
 miles west of Gadsden, with population
 of some 300 souls, was completely wrecked
 at Il o'clock this morning by a cyclone.
 Early in the morning dark and threat ening cloud came up in the southwest
 with considerable wind, and all of a sud- den the wind made swoop and struck the town, almost completely demolishing it. Eighteen dwelling houses were de- stroyed, five being swept completely away, and not a stick of the timber was left. The cyclone lasted fully five min utes, and then passed in a. northeastern direction. Trees as large as a mans waist were shaken down like weeds. After the storm passed the work of res- cue was commenced. At this writing 1t is known that fifteen are wounded, and six of them fatally.
 Mrs. Ricketts and a man named Bund- by were badly hurt, and will die. Mrs. Clarke, Mrs. Brown and several children will probably die.
 A 10-year-old boy was found half of a | mile away in a dying condition. Others are badly wounded. The path of the cyclone was about 100 yards wide, and total devastation marks its path. Had the storm struck the town an hour later fully fifty people would have been killed or wounded, as at that time the operators of the basket factory would have been at dinner. Fortunately both factories escaped.
 The scene of the storm is a desolate one now. The work of rescue goes bravely on, and every few hours fresh victim is found. The cloud had the regular fun mel shape, and when 1t struck the town there was a loud report as of cannon, and soon the air was full of flying timber, trees, houses, animals, etc. Several per | sons are missing, and it is probable that l they will be found dead.
 A meeting of citizens held at Gunters- vile raised several hundred dollars for | the sufferers. Fully 100 people are act | ing as relief corps.
 Ed Long and an unknown woman were l killed by lightning.

COMMERCIAL UNION.
That Is the Paramount Necessity of the
 Empire, Says MT. Chamberlain.

GiAhPAICs odyo i<Af. OhuiuDCTldlIs
 London, June 9.@Trhe third congress of the chambers of commerce of the empire began it's first sitting at Grocers' hall this morning. The hall was crowded with del- egates and others. Joseph Chamberlain. secretary of state for the colonies and honorary president of the congress, de- livered a speech welcoming the delegates, in which he promised the representa- lives of Canada that their proposal of bring ing into a closer union the various DOT tions of the British empire by the creation of commercial zolverein would not be met by a. blank refusal from the people of Great Britain. MT. Chamberlain spoke of the paramount necessity for the commer- cial union of the empire, which, he said, was at the root of all the problems with which they had to deal. - It was his opin- ion that a customs union was the most feasible of any of the proposals which aimed at commercial union, and 1t was an essential condition that Great Britain should consent to replace the import du- ties upon certain articles of large produc- tion in the colonies, such as corn, meat, wool, sugar, etc., but he thought the pro- posal to replace such duties should ema- nate from the colonies. and not from the United Kingdom.
 The chambefg of commerce of all the British colonies were represented in the congress. Lords Loch and Knutsford, MT. Sydney Buxton, M. F.; Sir John Lub- beck, M. F., and Sir George Baden Pow ell. M. F.. were among those present.

The Mexican Orange Industry.

Washington, June 9.-The Mexicans are taking advantage of the scarcity of Flor ida oranges, and are shipping their supply of the fruit to this country. Last season 400 car loads were shipped to the United States, but this season fully 800 car loads will be exported. Thomas T. Crittenden, United States consul-general at the City of Mexico, who furnishes this informa- tion to the state department, says that old trees are being pruned, new orchards planted and every preparation made to compete for the American orange trade.
 The Mexican orange season, from Sep tember to December, fits in between the Florida and the California seasons, he says, thus leaving Mexico with practical ly no competition in our market.
