SCORE Of human lives and upward of
81. 900, 900 worth Of property were de.
stroyed by the terrible tornado which
burst upon this city few minutes past
II O'Clock Tuesday night. The storm
struck near the National cemetery and
tore its way through the entire city.
leaving its path marked by death and
desolation.
Men. women and children, peace.
fully sleeping in their homes, were
without q moments warning awakened
to meet possible death in the fearful
storm, while others, momentarily more
fortunate and who escaped the furies Of
the wind, met far worse fate few
moments later in the flames which
soon ensulfed many Of the wrecked
buildings.
Scene Of Awful GRANDEUR.
The scene following the first terrific
crash Of the storm was one of awful
grandeur. Business blocks, hands ONE
mansions, hotels and humble cottages
were razed to the ground and scattered
In shapeless masses. Several Of the
wrecks caught fire and the inflammable
ttmbers burned furiously.
The city was crowded with rural
visitors, many Of whom were sleeping
at boardinghouses unregistered. For
this reason the number Of victims who
perished in Fort Smith may never be
definitely known. The storm struck
the city near the National cemetery
and swept its way through the heart OF
the town. Leaving Fort Smith il
bounded by Van Buren and continued
down the river, demolishing everything
in its path. News from outsi de points
Is not yet at hand, but rumors Of much
damage as for south as Alma have
reached here, it being reported that a
number Of persons were killed near
that place.
Score Of Business Blocks Gone.
The tornado struck Garrison avenue
at the corner Of Ninth street and made
clean sweep from there to the Texat
corner, totally demolshing score oi
business blocks. The upper floor of the
block on the corner of Garrison and
Towson avenues is used as fiat. The
ruins caught fire from the night lamp
Several bodies were taken from these
ruins, two Of them being so badly
burned that they could scarcely be
identified. Burgess hotel, o Y.story
brick on Towson avenue. was demol
ished. There have been eight bodies
already taken from the ruins. Rescue
parties are still at work at both place.
and expect to find several more bodies
The federal court is in session and

huge trees are uprooted, the lodge de-
molished and the wall torn down.

THE APPROPRIATION MADE.

Attack ON Civil Service in the House Re-
,.. suited in Nothing.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-The civil
service debate which was inaugurated
in the house week ago has ended. 1t
opened with q row but ended very
tamely. There was not even vote on
the appropriation in the legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation
bill for the commission, upon which
the debate was preoipitated. The Re-
publicans who are seeking to modify
or repeal the law decided to let the de-
bate come to close, but it required the
casting vote Of the speaker to accom-.
plish this. There are conflicting state
ments as to the situation in which the
future conduct Of the war against the
civil service law is loft. All the Re-
publican opponents Of the Jaw agree
that the fight is to be kept up, and it is
positively stated by Mr.. Pearson Rep.
N. o. that
Assurances Nave Been Received
from those in authority in the house
that an opportunity will be given in
the future for the consideration Of a
bill to modify the law, but from other
sources the statement cannot be con-
flrmed.
The debate was quite dull until the
closing hour. when Mr.. Simpson. the
Kansas Populist, enlivened it with
some references to the Ohio senatorial
election. Mr.. Bailey, the Democratic
loader, made a clear statement Of the
minority position, which indicates that
the minority will vote to repeal but not
to modify the law. The principal
speech Of the day was made by Mr..
Brosius, chairman Of the civil service
1committee, who defended the law in a
two hours speech.

victory as the present one. Tho op-
position died hard. Previous to the
joint balloting they offered to support
Senator Dodge Of Cleveland for the
short term, with MoKisson for the long
term. Senator Dodge is a neighber Of
Senator Hanna in Cleveland and was
nominated and elected on pledges for
Hanna. Senator Dodge stated that the
senators and representatives from
Cleveland were instructed for Hanna
and Indignantly rejected the PROPOSE
ton.
Fought to the Last.
The opposition knew they were de.
feated before the balloting began, but
fought to the last on the charges of
bribery and coercion. In the joint bal
loting there were no changes whatever
by the senators over their two ballots
of the previous day for the long and
short terms. McKisson received 10
votes and Hanna II. When the roll Of
the house was called it resulted in the
ballots for both terms as follows:
Hanna Sc, McKisson 81, Lentz and
absent The joint ballots for both
terms resulted as follows: Hanna rs,
McKisson 10, Lentz l, absent !. The
official declaration showed that Hanna
had majority Of three over MoKisson
of two over all voting and Of over all
the members in the general assembly.
The demonstrations in the hall were
unusually enthusiastic, but Governor
Bushnell and several other state officers
were not present. -

into the Dreyfus party. a protest against
the cOurt-martial Of Picquart, bearing the
signatures OF leading authors politicians,
and journalists. is being widely circulated
for further names, and will be presented
TO the government.
SENSATION NEXT MONDAY.
This evening it IS reported that NJ. De
Freycinet, Minister OF War, has consent
ed to be interpelated on the subject in
the Chamber of Deputies next Monday
when sensational scene may be ex-
pected.
Another feature Of the case is the tor
rent Of hostile criticism now poured upon
NJ. DE Freycinet, who is accused Of quail
ing before General Zurinden and the
general staff.
Mmtre LaDori, Colonel Picquarts coun-
sell says he is convinced it will be i'm
possible to condemn Picquart on the
charge of forgery, but that the accused
officer may possibly be condemned on the
charge of communicating secret docu-
ments. although their communication was
i'm no way inimical TO the interests Of the
State.
Colonel Picquart continued his evidence
before the Court of Cessation throughout
the whole day, and his deposition is eX-
pected to occupy several days more There
is still some hope that he may receive
Justice. owing to the presence on the
court-martial Of Colonel BOnnat. who IS
q great friend of Picquarts. but NJ.
Clemenceau, i'm Aurore. declares that the
eOurt-martial is packed. and accuses III.
De TreyCinet OF ALLOWING Innocent
man TO be victimzed in order 10 increase
his own chances at the next presidential
election.
