Alleged Filbusters.

MOBILE, ALA, May 25.-SiXty men,
reported filibusters that failed to reach
Cuba on the Bermuda, arrived here yes
terday on the steamer Clearwater from
Colba, Honduras. They are very reti-
cent and very little can be COTTON out Of
them, They are, however, we'll cared
for by Cuban sympathizers. The brief
explanation they give agrees with what
is otherwise known of the Bermuda ex-
pedition. The Bermuda left st. Johns
river, Florida, April q, and made a
landing near Cardenas in Cuba. After
several boat loads of ammunition and
other material had been put ashore and
some of the men, also Spanish gun

The Horsa Expedition.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-In the Su-
preme Court of the United States to-
day an opinion read by Chief Justice
Fuller decided the case of Wiborgetal.,
VS., the United States, involving the
Horsa Cuban expedition, affirming the
judgment of the District Court for
Pennsylvania, Sc n tenci ng Capt.
Wiborg to imprisonment and fine for
engaging in the expedition, and revers-
ing it as to Peterson and Johansen, the
mates of the vessel. The Chief Justice
said the arms and men carried by the
Horsa constituted a military expedition,
in violation of the neutrality laws.
The individuals constituting the body
need not be armed to come within the
intent of the law. Although the statue
was penal one, said the Justice, it was
to receive reasonable construction,
the same as that given to other statutes
governing domestic affairs. All the
elements of a military expedition We're
present on the Horsa. The Chief
Justice said that the evidence did not
tend to show that the mates had such
knowledge of the errand of the Horsa
at the time the vessel left Philadelphia
to warrant the judgment against them
and it was reversed, with Instructions
to fine them new trial. Mr.. Justice
Harlan dissented from the Judgment as
to the defendant Wiborg.

An Iowa Cyclone.

DEs MONIES, IA, May 25,-The most
alarming reports are being received
here this morning respecting the
cyclone which swept over Polk, Story
and Jasper counties shortly after mid
night.
Fourteen persons are reported killed
in the three towns of Valeria; Bondu-
rant and Ankeny. The two latter
towns are in this POLK county. while
Valeria is in Jasper county, directly
east. So far as heard from, Slater is
the only town in Story county which
suffered, but as there is no means of
communication with that section, there
is every probability that the restoration
of telegraph communication will bring
news of disasters as yet unreported.
No details have been received from
Slater further than the bare statement
that the whole town was destroyed.
The same report comes from Polk City,
this county.
LATER.-A telephone message from
Berwick says that courier just in says
that twenty-four persons were killed at
Bondurant, five at Valeria and three at
Ankeny.
The situation grows worse as authen-
tic news comes from the cyclone dis
trict. At Vaeria, it is now known
that fifteen persons were killed, the
number being first placed at but five.
Most of those killed were in the depot
ofsthe Chicago Great Western road,
some of them having justalghted from
train and Others having taken refuge
from the rain. The depot was
literally blown to pieces. The west
bound passenger train escaped the
cyclone but few minutes. Had it
remained at the station five minutes
longer, the list of killed would undoubt-
ed have numbered scores.
A dispatch from Santiago, this county,
says the storm was unprecedented in it's
fury in that section. Three miles west
of the town house was lifted bodily
from the earth, carried some distance
and thrown to the ground, a shattered
wreck. The entire family of occupants
were killed. The roads are almost i'm
passable from debris-fences, out-build-
ings and branches of trees being swept
together in piles. Nothing has been
heard from the northeastern end of the
county, where it is feared that the storm
caused the greatest danger.
A messenger from Bondurant, who
arrived at 8 o'clock, says that K. G..
Scott, a prominent farmer, was killed /;
also that a church at Ankeny was
blown down and several persons were
hurt
MOUNT CLEMENS, MICH, May 25.-
A cyclone passed over this city this
evening, wrecking about fifty houses
and killing six or eight persons and in
juring several others.
PONTIAC, MIcH., May 25.Reports
from Ortonville, Oakwood, Oxford and
Thomas, which are located in Oakland
county, fifty to sixty miles north of here,
say that a cyclone swept these sections
this afternoon. Ortonville and Thomas
were nearly wiped out of existence. 1t
is said that fully dozen people lost
their lives at Ortonville, while at Thom-
as four were killed.

Illinois Democrats.

CHIcoGo. May 25.-The Democratic
primary elections for delegates to the
convention which meets here tomorrow
to choose delegates to the State Con
vention and do other political business
was held in the wards and outlying
towns to-day. Secretary Burke, of the
County Central Committee, said to-
night, when he had received figures
from judges and clerks from most of the
wards, that tbs total vote would average
500 to a ardwhich would mean that
over $4,000 votes were cast, fair vote
compared with other primaries. AS
has been conceded since the majority of
the county conventions declared for
free silver, the delegates will vote
unanimously tomorrow in favor of free
silver and for delegates of like sentiment
to represent Cook county in the State
Convention. All the delegates are also
for Governor Altgeld's denomination.
The "sound money" organization of the
party which urged all Democrats who
favored "honest money" and honest
primaries" to stay away from the poll
ing places had watchers at each place
whose business 1t was to count the
voters and detect any Irregularities so
evidence could be secured in the contest
which will be made against delegates
at-large to the National Convention
According to their estimates only $500
votes We're cast Only one gold ticket
was put up, at Ivanhoe, where 226
voted for silver delegates and 76
against.

NEW YORK MARKETS.
Tho Stock Exchange.

New York, April THE feature Of tho
share speculation today was the fact that
the general list proved superior to the pro-
nounced weakness in American Tobacco.
The stock mentioned. even reduced TO full
shares surpassed any of the list in ex-
tent of trading, and scored an exceptional
loss OF As per cent. closing at the lowest OF
the day. This development was regarded
generally in stock exchange circles with
feeling akin to satisfaction, as demon
straang that the conspirators in the stock
had overshot their mark and would now
be the victims OF their own Vaccinations.
Influences upon the general market were
of a negatively favorable character. 1t
had been expected that the decisive vote
in the house in favor OF the recognition OF
the Cnbans as beiligereats would be
marked on the resumption of business on
the London stock exchange after tho
| Easter holidays by heavy selling of Amer
lean securities in that market. London
cables. however. previous to the opening
of the local exchange reported only trifl-
| ing changes in American rails in either d.
| rection- Consequently the opening deal
| trgs here were characterized by a firmer
| undertone. Other favorable factors were
the Encouragement of gold for shipment.
| despite tho continued strength OF ex-
| change. a report of the increased DISPOSE
ton on the part of the bankers to pur-
| chase commercial paper, and the con-
tinued ease in money. American Sugar
was helped by advances in foreign and
1 domestic grades OF the product. and Union
Pacific trust receipts were unusually ac-
| tive and strong, on the improved prospect
| for readjustment OF the Indebtedness of
| the Pacific railroads to the government.
| The initial prices. while irregular, dis
! played an improving tendency. and inn
| portant fractional gains occurred. Real
izations later caused sharp recession in
| some instances. London sold st. Paul,
| Union Pacific and other international
shares. The traders also put out lines OF
! shorts. but without much impression on
| the prices. The selling movement was ex-
| hausted before midday. and under the
| leadershipof Sugar and Union Pacific most
of the early declines were recovered. The
market closed firm. with fractional gains
| general.
| Bonds were rather duh and without
| change of consequence. although the tone
! was firm The transactions amounted to
| $4,000. Governments were steady on
| sales Of $3.50.
