Guthrie, q. T., April 2.-It develops
that the loss Of life in the Chandler cy-
clone has been greatly over stated. In

stated. are known to have met death in
Chandler. and in addition 10 these three
were killed in the country outside OF
that town. Fully 200 persons were in
jured. so or 60 seriously, and five may
die A corrected list of the dead at

QUESTION OF LIEN.
Defendant Claims That Proceed
iDgs We're Void.
This Because Account Was Not Filed
Within Twenty Days.

Before Justices Stiness, Tillinghast, and
Douglas was heard this morning in the
Appellate Court the case of James c.
Golf against Il. III. Hosmer on exceptions
as TO the sufficiency of tho lien proceed
ings begun by MIR Golf. " w. Littleiield,
counsel for the defendant maintained
that as on the 18th day Of April, 1895 the
plaintiff flied in the recorders office Of
this city notice stating that materials
used in the construction of a house for
Hosmer had been furnished by Goff and
the notice concluding gives notice that
lie intends TO claim and does claim Il
lien, the plaintiff was bound TO file an
account within 20 days. The account was
not filed until the following August and
MIR Littefield urged that the failure To
file the account within the 20 days made
all the subsequent proceedings under the
lien null and void.
Mr.. Littleiield also argued that the
court in the Bradley lien case had de-
cided that the filing of an intention tO
claim lien was the beginning Of legal
proceedings In these cases he said that
the papers showed that only one paper
was filed and the present one was similar
% these. The court did not think that
the decisions in the Bradley cases went
as far rs Mr.. Littlefield contcnded,
Secber Edwards, counsel for Con main
filing OF notice for intention To claim "a
lien for $l?3. He quoted the decision of
the court in case of Tingley a. White
where it was held that the amount may
be set forth in the notice of intention TO
claim lien but legal proceedings did not
begin until the filing of the account.
His contention was that the stating of
the amount in present case tffit was due
was not an account because IL seemed
that the statute required an itemiZed ac-
count and within 20 days after the filing
of this itemized account petition for "a
lien was filed in the Appellate Court
Mr.. Angel informed the court that he
did not know the exact grounds until
the hearing today as Mr.. Littlefeld' s
motion was To dismiss the claim for lien
because the petition was not filed i'm time
He asked for leave To file brief and Mr..
Littlefiold also expressed desire to have
the same privilege and Judge Stiness an
nounced that briefs might be filed within
"a week

missioner Of immigration McSweeney for
the last week has been delugcd with coll
lect kilograms from one Simon Platzky,
of Nashville, Tenn, asking that Samuel
Forester and his 17-year old daughter
raube, be sent at once TO Nashville. As
10 money was sent wi h which to pur-
chase the railroad tickets the request was
naturally ignored, and the commissioners
finally notified the manager of the tele-
graph office i'm Nashville To accept no
more kilograms from Platzky unless they
were prepaid
Forester is an Austrian, and with his
daughter arrived on the steamer Andalu-
sia from Hamburg about 10 days ago.
He had but $40 and when taken before

60 his cousin, James Silberberg, cigar
manufacturer mt 2l9 Broome street, and
nat his daughter Taube was engaged TO
marry her cousin, Platzky, and was
going to his home in Nashville, Tenn.
Silbcrberg was sent for, and expressed
a willingness to provide for Forester. but
did not offer to advance the money To pay
the daughters fare To Nashville As
Silberberg was unable to furnish the bond
required by the government in cases
where the immigrant is liable to become
u public charge, Forester and his daugh-
ter Were ordered dcported, and yesterday
were to have been sent back TO Austria.
The agent of the Hebrew Societies
stationed at Ellis Island became Interested
in the case and at the last moment had
their deportation postponed.
Miss Taubo Forester has denounced the
actions of her cousin Platzky in violent
Hebrew, and declares that IL she l. al

Lyons, of No. 107 Bond street, Elizabeth,
n. j., starved herself to death She was
sixty years old, and for four weeks had
deliberately refused to eat food She was
reduced almost to n skeleton when death

drove her to desperation.
John Lyons, her husband, was killed by
a switch engine of the Central railroad of
New Jersey some years ago. Then her
son, John, was killed by a train at Phil
lipsburg, Nj. and her second son, William
met like fate at Rome. y. Y, Another
son was scaldcd to death in the Elizabeth
glue works and Thomas Sellers, IA son-in-
law, was killed by n train at Bergen
Point.
Under this succession of fatalities her
mind gave way, and the efforts of her re-
manning children, Miss May Lyons and
Mrs. Julia Sellers, To comfort her, were
in vain.
She was member of st. Patrick's :
church in Elizabeth where she had lived
all her life, and was greatly respected
All her family had been railroad men,
and no accident had occurred to them in
years, when suddenly the series of fatal-
ties began. She prayed constantly to die
and be with her loved ones

Control Markets.
Toledo. April A gigantic farmers
trust is now being organized in this
country Hon. Jonas Stanberry has
been placed at the head of the organiza
ton in this section. Several branches
were secretly organized and the order is
strictly oath-bound. IL originated at
Lancaster Pa, and was incorporated
under the laws of New Jersey az the
Agriculturalists' National Protective as
Eociation.
The supreme body Is made up OF one
representative from each state. Each
state has n subordinate board of direc-
tors, consisting OF one representative
from each congressional district. Fac
district in turn Is governed by board
OF two members from each county. Each
ounty is under the immediate control
OF beard.
II Is the purpose to do nothing this
year in the way of controlling the mar
kots, because the organization is not yet
complete. Next year. however, the
crops will be limited to the actual living
needs OF the members of the organiza-
tion.
II the plan is carried out, not a dollars
worth OF farm produce OF any kind will
be sold for general consumption. After
the year 1898 there will be erected in each
county storehouses in which all products
for the market will be placed. From
these warehouses the products will be

tors may order.

The stock market today opened with
considerable strength. London bought
stocks and the few commission houses
that appeared had buying orders. The
traders were inclined to sell, however,
and seemed determined to break prices.
There was very little activity shown ex-

couraging. Chicago Gas made "A slight
