 IN SOUTH FLORIDA Cyclone Completely AnnihiIated

 Two Mill Boilers Mark
 Site of Town.

River Junction, Fla, August 1.-The most disastrous cyclone that has ever visited this section of Florida completely anni- Inflated Carrabelle, Mcintyre and Lanark Inn, south of here yesterday.

 The Carrabelle, Tallahassee and Georgia railroad is washed away for a distance of thirty miles. A passenger train was blown from the track more than one hundred yards. Many passengers were injured, but their names are unobtainable.
 Mary Williams coored, was killed at Carrabelle. Numeous others had legs and arms broken. Daniel Neel, of Apalachi- cola had his back broken and is not ex- pected to recover.
 Fifteen ships lying at anchor in Dog Island cove and upper anchorage are now all high and dry in St. Georges and Dog Island. Twelve were loaded with lumber and ready for sea. Nothing remains of them but a mass of wreckage. When the Italian bark Corteria struck she split half in two from stem to stern. The names of

FIERCE RATE WAR.
Railroads of Texas and Louisiana Will
 Battle for Business.

Dallas, Tex, August Manifestations are that fierce rate war in Texas and Louis lana will soon be precipitated. MT. E. P. Turner, general ticket and passenger agent of the Texas and Pacific railway said
 "The Texas and Pacific railway put on a summer excursion rate to Cloudcroft, N. M, a point eleven miles northeast of Fl Paso, at S6 above the Fl Paso rate. This rate applies only from Alexandria, La., La., west on the line of the Texas and Pacific railroad and does not apply from New Orleans. The Southern Pacific rail- way insisted that we discontinue our sales of these tickets to Cloudcroft which we refused to do hence the begging of this rate war. The Southern Pacific then im- mediately put in effect a one fare non- descriptive round trip ticket from New Orleans to Fl Paso. Then the Texas and Pacific in it's turn immediately put in a one round fare trip trcket from New Or leans to Lake Charles, Beaumont, Houston, Galveston, Austin, San Antonio and the in- dications are that the war, just begun. is on in earnest and the prospect is that cut rates will spread rapidly.

CHICAGO EATS BILLY GOATS FOR MUTTON But the Surgeons Say They're OK.
 Only a Trifle
 Strong.
hicago August 1.-The Daily News

Chicago August 1.-The Daily News says:
 Thousands of goats are bought, slaught- cred and placed upon the markets of Chicago and sold as mutton by some pack CTS at the stock yards. This traffic is car ried on most extensively during the winter and early spring up to and including the month of April. The goats and kids are principally of the Angora kind and come from the Northwest, while a few are shipped in from the South. The latter are of the common goat specie and do not find as ready sale as the Angoras.
 Besides being very palatable as a food, the Angora goat and kid are used for other purposes. The skins of the goat are used for making floor-mats and robes for babies, while the skin of the kid is used for trirn- ming furs.
 Dr. W. s. Devo of the bureau of animal industry when asked today in regard to the goats being sold for mutton, said:
 "They are certainly quite free from dis

CASE MOST REVOLVING.
Young Girl Assaulted and Left in Dying
 Condition.

Fort Wayne, Ind, August 4.-William Hilker, a grover of this city, is under ar est on the charge of criminal assault. The case is most revolting. Hilker is about fifty years old, a widower with two grown sons. He delivered some groceries at the residence of Henry Reamer in the outskirts of the city. Minnie Reamer, aged 16, got into the wagon to ride back to the city with Hilker.
 The latter drove to a road house four miles from town. What happened after that the girl cannot tell. Some farmers caught Hilker in drunken condition with the girl in the wagon beaten into uncon- sciousness, with her clothes torn to shreds. Hilker attempted to escape, but the farmers pursued him, but Hilker threw the girl out of the wagon, but held to her foot, and she was dragged along in this manner for two miles, the horse going at gallop. When the farmers caught up with them Hilker a giant In stature, gave them a hard fight, but was finally captured.
 The girl is in a dying condition.

HUMANE OFFICER
Was Severely Beaten by the Cleveland
 Strikers.

Cleveland, O., August 1.-The fact has just come to light that Lucius S. Mellen, ex-superintendent of the City Infirmary and ex-general agent of the Cleveland Humane Society. was terribly beaten by strike sym pathizers last Wednesday.
 MT. Mellen is 6S years old and is in a precarious condition. His family did not report the matter to the police for fear of further violence MT. Mellen rode on a Big Consolidated car Wednesday, He was followed into a shop by a boy, who called to two men within that he had ridden on a "scab" car. The two men seized MT. Mel len and threw him out of the door. The aged man fell on the sidewalk, and the two men and the boy, reinforced by two other men who came along, kicked him brutally. MT. Mellen's condition is very dangerous. He is one of the oldest and most prominent citizens of Cleveland, and has been for years a leader of national fame in church and charitable work.

Richmond, Va. August IA Hampton special to the Dispatch tonight says every thing is going on smoothly there, and the people are going about their business calmly. Two deaths from the fever are re- ported from the home, but no new cases at either the home or Phoebus.

SURGEONS ARE IN CONTROL

Washington, August 4.-Ofncial reports to the marine hospital service from the Soldiers Home at Hampton show that the yellow fever situation there continues fa- vorable. Surgeon White reports to Dr. Wyman that there is nothing suspicious In the town of Hampton. There were no new cases and only two deaths at the home to- day, according to the report Dr. Vickery, the surgeon at the institution, sent to the surgeon general tonight pr. Vickery ex- pressed the opinion that the immune help on theiw way to the home should be stop ped, a, the epidemic seems quenched.
 Surgeon General Wyman, in speaking of the situation tonight, inferentially uttered a worl of caution against too sanguine views of the checking of the epidemic at this time, which might result in a relaxa- tion of the precautions which should be maintained against the spread of the fever He said:
 There are certain factors in the situa- ton which make it encouraging and they are: First, that the disease was discovered very promptly compared with the usual outbreaks, and in an institution where all the inmates are under good control. It was recognized much quicker than it would have been in commercial community, because all the cases ana all the deaths were brought together to the notice of one man. Another favorable factor is that the latitude is not extremely south Neverthe- less it should be remembered that in Bruns- wick, Ga., in 1893, little more than two weeks after the last reported death other cases appeared"

The Method of Extracting Gold.

Gold is now extracted by mixing
the ore with common salt and sui
phuric acid, then adding a solution
Of permanganate of potash. Hydro
chloric acid is formed and chlorin Is
liberated to combine with the gold.
This new method is employed at
Mount Morgan. Queensland, and is
said to have advantages over the
amalganalion and cynide processes,
1t is more searching than mercury,
and can be applied to ore containing
