NEW YORK. May 18.-A special to
the World from Jacksonville, Fla,
says:
There was report here last night
that another Cuban fllibu5tering
expedition is organizing. and that be-,
fore many days large cargo of arms
and ammunition, with a goodly num-
Der of Cuban passengers" will be on
the way to Cuba. The report was
strengthened by another report that
the steamer Laurada was down at the
bar.
1t is certain that Cubans have been
gathering in this city for the past few
days and have been especially active
in certain directions. The govern
ment authorities have been notified
from Washington to seize Laurada.
and should she come into port, there
is little probability that she will come
up the river, even if it is she that is re.
ported to be at the mouth of the river.
1t is stated also that the steamer
Three Friends will soon get off with a
load of ammunition and arms. The
Spanish consul here is very active,
and is keeping the wires hot between
this city and Washington. The reve-
nue. cutter Boutwell, is at the mouth
of the St. Johns, waiting for any at
tempt of steamers to load.

Great Niagara Fruit Belt Damaged by the
Storm
NIAGARA FALLS, May 18-The great
Niagara fruit belt has been severely
damaged by the terrific gale which
prevailed all day yesterday.
The wind began early in the morn
ing to blow strong from the west and
by noon it was bowling gale, which
tore young fruit off in clusters. The
indications from the blossoms in the
orchards throughout this section,
pointed to one of the largest fruit crops
in years. The fruit was formed splen-
didly. There has been no frost aud
fruitgrowers were congratulating
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 damage. 1t is estimated that
half of the apple crop is lost and near
ly as much in pears and plums.
Peaches suffered some, but nothing
near to what the others did.

fenced terrible snowstorm, in which

THE OREGON IN PORT.
Irving NJ. Scott Made a Speech to hi
Worklngmen,

IL.
workingmen.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 6.-Today
was the greatest gala day ever seen in
the Potrero, because the Oregon
steamed up to the Union iron works in
blaze of glory, with the worlds
speed record flying in bold figures at
her masthead. To thousands depen-
dent on the Union iron works, the
music of her gongs was sweet and the
sound of her great whistle called the
residence from their homes. The air
was rent with patriotic cheers, flags
were flying and thousands stood at
convenient view points to welcome
Irving NJ. Scott as he was drawn by
100 workmen in carriage covered
with flags and wretched with flowers.
Then Every bell in the neighborhood
rang, and all the whistles blew in con-
cert. that of the Oregon rising above
them all.
The carriage was decked and orna-
mented until it looked like chariot.
The workmen from the shipyard took
charge of it. Machinists and joiners,
grimy from their work, seized the
ropes until more than 100 were cheer
ing and pulling their employers buggy
through the streets. They carried
shovels and hammers as emblems of
toll, and stopped in front of the shops
after tour of several blocks.
After three cheers and tiger for
the Oregon, for the president OF the
iron works and for the nation, Mr..
Scott, greatly moved, stood up in his
buggy and made a simple speech.
"Boys," began the gray-haired ship
builder, 81 cannot let this occasion
pass without calling your ttention to
an event that occurred on Thursday.
I want to thank you for making it
possible for US to beat the world in
building ships. 1t was only few
years ago that they said we were only
an affair on paper. That we could not
build battle-ship on the coast. But
we got the Charleston and increased
the speed half a knot; then we got the
San Francisco and the Olympia and
now comes the Oregon, grander than
all. (Cheers.)
"Boys. have but few years left. I
feel old age creeping upon me. have
given my life to this work, and when 1
must say farewell to scenes long famil-
lar to me, it will be with the thought
that. with fair treatment, the men of
the Union iron works will never be
be beaten"
This remarkable performance of the
ship was the one theme of conversa-
tion in naval circles yesterday and
today.

Today County Treasurer Michel
publishes a call for county warrants,
and informs US that he has the cash
on hand with which to liquidate about
$4,000 of Wasco county's indebtedness.
The greater portion of these $4,000
were collected prior to March 81, last,
and had this amount been turned in to
the county treasure prior to the ren.
dering of the semi-annual statement
on March 81, the showing OF the total
Indebtedness of the county at that date
would have been about $4,000. For
some reason the taxes collected were
not turned over to the treasurer,
hence the Indebtedness of the county
was reported greater than it should
have been.

by a Cyclone.
SHERMAN, Tex, May 15.-Just a
few minutes before 5 o'clock this after
noon, a cyclone, not exceeding two
blocks in width, but carrying wide-
spread destruction and death in its
wake, swept through the western half
of the city, travelling almost directly
north. The appeeaeh of the terrific
whirlwind was announced by deep
rumbling noise, not unlike reverberat-
ing thunder. A fierce and driving
rain accompanied it.
1t is very conservative to estimate
that the list of fatalities will reach so
while the injured will reach 100. At
least so houses are wrecked. Most of
them were small cottages, except in
Fairview and Washington avenue.
where the handsome residences of L..
F. Ely, Captain J. G. Saller, Mrs. Pat
Mattingly and James Fallas also sue
cumbed. The loss will reach at least
$3.50, 900. and but little if any of it was
covered by cyclone insurance.
