Fatality.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June IAN Eve
ming Wisconsin special from Kenosha,
Wis, says: The most disastrous storm
that ever visited Kenosha county struck
here early in the day, and as result of
the work of the wind, lightning and
rain, a desolate waste over mile wide
is left across the entire county. Only
meager reports have been received so
far. While houses and barns were car
ried away, no loss of human life is re-
ported, but several were injured by
being caught in the wrecks of their
homes. A cloudburst followed the
wind and lightning, completely wash
ing out the crops. The home of Charles
Rogers, four miles west Of the city.
seemed to be the center of the storm.
A big barn was torn to pieces, chickens
stripped of their feathers and cattle
killed, but Mr.. Rogers home remained
untouched, though the family received
severe shaking up.

HAVANA, June 1.-Lieutenant Colo

infantry, accompanied by Paymaster
Moses, his clerks, aides and military
escort, with nearly 100000, left by
special train for Santiago de las Vegas,
but owing to various delays the pay

Many of the applicants, of whom there
were large number, We're without

which point they We're prevented from

was present to identify the applicants,
fact that caused considerable annoy

KINGSTON, Jamaica, June 1.-The

AS He Thinks Necessary to Bring
the War in the Philippines
to a Close.
Otis Has Asked for No More Than
". He Now Has and Are on
the Way.
More Fighting Between Ameri.
cans and Filipinos, This Time
on Mindanao.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The president
stated to congressional caller that
there was not at present any contempla.
ton OF largely increasing General Otis
forces in the Philippines. He said that
nothing han been received from General
Otis which indicated the necessity fo1
more troops beyond the regulars who
are to be sent to relieve the retiring vol
unteers But the president added that
if additional reinforcements become
necessary they would be promptly fur
nished. A number Of governors of states
had advised him that they could fur
nish regiments in short order if the &C.
casion required. But at the same time
the president expressed his strong be-
lief and confidence that the necessity
for mastering in additional volunteers
in accordance with the authority
granted by the army reorganization bill
would not be wise.
Secretary Alger was with the presi-
dent for some time discussing the situa-
ton. When he left the White House
he denied that General Otis had cabled
that 10000 troops would be necessary.
General Otis. said he, had been notified
from time to time that all the troops
he considered necessary would be sup
piled to him, and not word of COM
plant has come from him. I have Just
cabled to Otis giving him definite infor-
nation as to the number of regulars he
would have after the volunteers are
withdrawn. Including the Nineteenth
infantry, which was delayed at Ponce
by the strandlng Of the transport Meade,
he will have $4,000 regulars. I asked
him if more than that number
would be required. We desire
this information because if volun-
teers must be mustered in it will
require all the time between now and
the end of the rainy season to muster
them in, equip them, and transport
them to the scene of action. We could.
If necessary, furnish General Otis with
about 5000 or 5000 additional regulars
without calling for volunteers, but the
sending Of the additional regulars would
reduce the troops at the military posts
in this country to minimum and
cramp US somewhat in Cuba and Porto
Rico. We have absolutely no reason to
believe that General Otis will request
more troops than we can furnish with
out enlisting volunteers.

30 MANILA, June 1.-.6:20 p. m.-De-
tails regarding the capture by Filipi-
nos Of two officers Of the United States
hospital ship Relief have just been OBJ
tanned. The Relief lies in the harbor
in front Of this city. Third officer Fred
Heppy and Assistant Engineer Charles
Blandford, rugged sail on one Of the
ships boats and went sailing along the
shore on the south, opposite the insur-
gent lines. The boat became becalmed
near the shore and some native canoes
with Filipinos on board put ont and
captured the two men, who were I'M
armed, and also took possession OF the
boat. The United States turret ship
Monadnock quickly sent boat with
landing party ashore under cover OF
her guns, and shelled the shore briskly.
Inc natives, however, rushed the pris-
oners into the woods before the Monad-
nocks boat reached land
Persons on board several other ships
saw the affair through glasses, but were
unable to prevent the capture of Messrs.
Heppy and Blandford. Friendly ma
tlves arriving here from the country
around San Isidro and San Miguel re-
port that reign Of terror has prevailed
since the American troops were with
drawn from those parts Of the islands.
The insurgents who are returning there
deal vengeance upon those of their
countrymen who have shown any friend
ship towards the Americans during the
latter's occupation of the territory. The
frlendlies declare that unofending peo-
pie are being murdered daily, and that
their houses are being burned and their
property contiscated. Plenty of sym
pathizers with the instruction re-
manned during the Americans stay,
and they have been reporting these in
stances of friendliness towards our
troops.
The refugees add that the inhabitants
were badly oppressed by the native SOL
diers before the American occupation,
but that their condition is worse now.
Doubtless there is much truth in the re-
ports, though such stories from Filipino
sources are always magnifed.
