CHAMBERLAIN IN DANGER.
Guarded by Detectives While i'm
This Country

SALEM, Mass. Sept. 30.-The Salem
News publishes story with reference
10 the visit Of Right Hon, Josenh
Chamberlain, secretary of the colonies
or Great Britain, which has created a.
sensation. 1t is said that Mr.. Cham
pertains visit to this country was
largely due to the discovery by the
Scotland Yard detectives, Of the dvna-
mite plot, in which lyman, Ivory and
others were alleged to be implicated. 1t
VIII be remembered that the announce
ment by the police of their discovery
was made after Secretary Chamberlain
left England. The News states that a
few days after Secretary Chamberlain
arrived at Danvers, two detectives be-
gan duty at the home Of Mrs. Endicott
Secretary Chamberlain's mother-in-
law, guarding the premises night and
day, and accompanying Mr.. Chamber
lain wherever he went. 1t was said
that this was the result of the dis
covery that a man had been seen
proving about the house at night.
One Of the members of the Fndicott
family, this afternoon, said that the
detectives employed to watch the man
sion were men supplied by the United
States secret service department and

WASHINGTON IN PATH OF GALE.
Much Damage Done All About the
City, and Even the White
House Shaken.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-The most
generally destructive West Indian
storm that this vicinity has known in
many years passed over the city last
| night, leaving behind it a wide trail
of dismantled buildings and ruined
! trees. Fortunately, no loss of life was
| caused within the city limits, but re-
ports from Alexandria, six miles down
the Potomac river state that four per-
sons were killed and several injured.
The loss in Washington is estimated at
upwards of quarter of million, while
in Alexandria it is as great A strong
characteristic Of the storm was the uni
fOTmity of the damage done, no part
of the city or surrounding counties
escaping, and likewise no part being so
badly damaged as to indicate that 1t
has been specially singled out as an
object of the storms wrath. Quite a
number Of houses were blown down and
there were several miraculous escapes
from death, but it is no loss to any in
diVidual building, but the vast number
Of losses ranging from a few dollars
to several thousands that brings the
aggregate up into the hundreds of thous-
ards. The Metropolitan street railway
probably suffered the heaviest individ-
ual loss; but in its case $35, 900 will cover
fully the damage to it's buildings and
cars. In every section of the city there
were houses unroofed and otherwise
damaged to a greater or less extent
and all the chief streets in each of
the four quarters Of the city were
strewn today with broken trees and
aralye srrn Null n
the 10000 trees in the city, it is esti-
mated, were destroyed by the storm.
Along the river front few boats es-
capped injury. The large excursion
steamers were all damaged to some
extent and less than a half dozen Of
the smaller craft Weathered the storm
at all. All Southern trains were de-
layed, and report damage done to
buildings all the way from Wilmington
N. c., to Washington.
The storm completely shut off electric
communication between Washington
and the outside world and from IL
o'clock last night until this afternoon
not a single telephone or telegraph wire
was working from Washington north,
11:15 the wind blew siXty-five miles an
hour and for one minute it attained the
maximum velocity Of. eighty nai4esesaFs
