ToRNADo,s Fatal work.

Four Killed and TTenty-sfx Others
Injured I'm an Hliiiois Institution,
A tornado which passed over the central
and southern portions of Logan county,
Illinois. yesterday AFTERNOON destroyed thou
sands of dollars worthspf property and de-
molished an immense barn on the farm of
the State Institution. for the Feeble
Minded. Twenty-six persons seeking ref
uge from the storm were buried in the
debris. Four of the refugees, boy pupils
from Chicago. were taken out dead. Five
others were severely injured one of whom,
the farm superintendent, will probably
die. IN
The dead are Sylvestef Baker, James
O'Brien, O'NeiH Mackenzie and Castle
Lebanon.
The State Institution for the Feeble
Minded. containing over 700 inmates,
seemed to be directly In the path Of the
storm. and stringent measures were quickly
taken to prevent q panic.
The tornado passed on to the northeast.
touching next on the farm and stock barns
connected with the asylum, three miles
distant. In the COW barn were huddled
twenty-six persons, including the superin-
tendent Of the farm Jacob Wilmott, TWEEN
ty-four pupils and an attendant. The barn
was wrencted from its foundation and
torn TO pieces. Four of the pupils were I'm
stantly killed. The others, with the ex-
ceptiop Of the superintendent, escaped re-
rious injury. and were shortly rescued
from the debris. Il

DUTIES ON WOOL.
Increased Rates Wanted In the West
Finance Committee Meeting.

Increased Rates Wanted In the West
Finance Committee Meeting.
The advocates in the Senate of an in
crease in the duty on wool held a meeting
yesterday, and decided upon the following
as the rates which they will ask the COM
mittee to fix on wool:
First class, in grease, unskirted, 10 cents
per pound; in grease, skirted. l. cents per
pound; If washed. double. these rates; IL
secured. treble.
Second class, in grease, unslxirted, II
cents per pound; in grease, skirted. Ii
cents; II washed, double; IL secured, treble.
Third class. worth not exceeding cents
per pound. 8 cents duty; worth over 6
cents and not exceeding 10. cents per
pound: worth over 10 cents per pound. 8
cents duty; If secured, treble.
These rates are much higher than those
originally fixed by the Senate committee,
and the wool men regard them as more adj
vantageous than those of the House bill
or than the Mckinley law. There were
present at the meeting a dozen or fifteen
senator's, representing all the states in
which wool is an industry of especial i'm
portance.
at the meeting of the republican members
of the Senate finance committee last night.
For over three hours the questions pre-
scented were discussed in q conversational
way, but no definite conclusions were
reached. Among the senators present who
asked for an increase in the wool duties as
proposed by the Senate were Messrs. Man.
tie, Foraker, Mcbride, Hanna and War
rem. Senator Penrose, in whose state are
large manufacturers of woolen goods. also
attended the meeting. 1t Is probable that
come compromise will be reached soon. hut
the question of just what rates will be
finally recommended Is still open.

Gross AAuses.
when I came to Washington" con-
tinued Captain Castle. 81 expected to find
similar situation with respect to the
civil service. But, from what hear, and
IL cne-fourth Of what hear is true, there
has not been an honest administration Of
the civil service law in the past in the
bureau over which have Been called upon
to preside
than one-half Of his time to considering
complaints made by republican employees
of the Office, most of them old soldiers, OF
their salaries having been arbitrarily re-
said there were more than $50 complaints
of this character. When their salaries
were reduced. democratic employees were
promoted. Capt. Castle said he is con-
WINGED that there Is a wrong sentiment pre-
vailing among the employees Of the depart
ments in this city, the result of the artifi-
cial political situation here. He said the
clerks rely more upon their congressional
influence than upon efficiency to retain
their positions and secure promotions.
Excrtion of influence.
81 have had over one hundred requests
from senators and representatives" said
Capt. Castle, Ito promote their friends In
my bureau. 1 do not think that is In &C
cord with the spirit Of the civil service
law"
lis 1t not likely" asked Senator Pri:ch-
ard, that these requests were for restora-
ton of the salaries that were reduced by
your predecessors
THAT is quite likely answered Capt.
Castle.
Examinations Not Practical.
Mr.. c. P. Rhodes. an employee of the gov
1.f.
mony. Mr.. Rhodes claimed that the civil
printing office were not of practical char
acter. He said they covered branches
which were entirely foreign to the Qualifi-
cations Of printer, and the failure of an
applicant passing in those branches often
served to keep a good man out Of the office.
Mr.. Rhodes said he could take High
School boy, coach him for a week in the
proof-reading instructions in Webster's die
tionary, and he could pass that examina-
ton, although he might never have set foot
in printing Office.
He said that excellent printers are walk
inS the streets today, their qualifications
known to the public printer and their serv-
ices in demand ny him, out they are I'M
able to pass A scholastic examination, and
they are kept out Of work.
Mr. Rhodes told of the expe rience of his
father with the civil service commission,
and drew the conclusion therefrom that
'the civil service commission can keep a
man out Of the office, but can't help him
very much to get in.
Mr.. Proctor and Mr.. Harlow of the civil
service commission were present at the
hearing today, and several times cross
examined witnesses when they were maxi
irg reflections upon the law. They will be
given a hearing some time in the future. in
which they will oring a mass of testimony,
they say. to disp-ove many of the things
which have been said about the commits

The committee then adjourned until next
