TORNADO IN NEW JERSEY.
Jackson's Mills at Little Falls, Near
Paterson, DESTROYED.

PATERSON. N. j.. Sept PA tornado caused
considerable damage In the Passaic valley. five
miles from this city and an eighth OF a nile
from Little Falls village this afternoon. The
chief damage was the demolishing OF the mills
OF George Jackson used as a mandatory of
felt and wooden novelties. Jackson's mills were
three in number. The main mill was a three
story frame building. and connected with 1t
was two-story boiler house with an eighty
foot brick smokestack. A two-story store room
was near by. Jackson's house is about 200 feet
distant from the main factory building. 1t had
been raining in the early part OF the day. but
Just before three O'Clock in the afternoon tho
sun came out. In a few moments there was an
unexpected and tremendous downpour OF rain.
and this was followed by an unusually severe
hail storm.
At 3:07 O'Clock. the wind storm broke in all
Its fury. 1t had skirted the western end Of
Little Falls and came from the southwest.
Then in rather circuitous route. it started
northeast. missing Jackson's house by about
thirty feet. A big tree that distance from tho
house was uprooted and lifted In the air
Then the wind hit tho main mill building.
There was one loud crash and the mill building
was thing OF the past. Some OF the heavy
timbers were blown distance OF three hun
dred yards. The S0-foot smokestack was
lIOlu lkb lOuuudtlOuS bO tuht part Ol IL
fell and the rest will have to be pulled down.
The boiler house was also knocked fiat and the
boilers were entirely ruined. The roof Of tho
storehouse was blown Off and was carried by
the wind distance OF fully 800 feet and depos-
tied on the ground without breaking 1t badly.
The tornado then crossed Little Falls turn
pike and went to Idlewild. an excursion park
Of the New Jersey Railroad Company. This
Is several hundred yards distant from tho
mills. Big trees were snapped Off and others
were uprooted and carried some distance by
the wind. Thirty big oak swings were demol-
ished. The roof OF photograph gallery was
blown of and the building was shifted half way
around on its foundations. The big wooden
dancing pavilion was also damaged.
The wind then travelled along the bank OF
the Passaic River until It reached Ryle Park.
the summer homo OF Thomas NJ. Rye The
chief damage done there was the uprooting OF
trees but one big trunk OF a tree that had been
twisted of was driven into the side OF barn
and stuck there so that II looked as IL the
barn was covered by some kind Of n vine. The
storm then crossed the river and tho roadway
was blocked by the trees that were blown
down. Gangs OF men are at work with axes to-
night trying to clear tho roads. Anumber OF
buildings on that side OF tho river were dam
aged.

GENERAL HAVANA STRIKE.
Labor Unions Unite in n Demand for an
EiEht-Hour Day.

Special Gable Despatoh 10 THE sux
HAVANA. Sept. 24.-The dissatisfied work
men who have been agitatng the question OF
a general strike held a great meeting this
afternoon on the Plaza Balboa. All branches
OF labor unions were said to be repre-
sented. The question was discussed from
2 until @ O'Clock and 1t was finally
agreed that a general strike should be
inaugrrated tomorrow morning. Numerous
S4speeches were made and a vote showed that
large majority OF those present were In favor
of the strike. The delegates who opposed the
strike. including the tobacco workers. said
they would abide by the decision Of the major
ity.
The greatest enthusiasm was manifested
when the decis m was reached. There were
shouts OF Cuba Libre." as though the polt-
ical emancipation OF the Cubans had some con-
necton with the grievances OF the workmen
The men do not ask for any increase In their
wages and the fight is simply for an eight
hour day.
Mayor Lacosta and Chief OF Police Cardenas
attended the meeting as spectators. They took
no part In the discussion.
Now that the delegates Of the various unions
have decided upon a general strike 1t remains
to be seen whether the men will go out when
they are ordered to do so. II they do the situ-
alton will be q serious one and famine may fol-

COLLEGE FACULTY RESIGNS.
Professors in tho Medical Department of
the University of Vermont All Quit.

BURLINGTON. Vt. Sept. 24-The trouble that
has been brewing in the Medical
Department Of the University OF Vermont
for year or more has culmin atcd
In the resignation OF the entire medical
faculty. The beginning Of the difficulty was
the failure OF the medical faculty a year agos
last summer Ito reelsct DR.. A. p. Grinnel
dean. an ONCE which he had held for many
years. DR.. II. c. Tinkham was chosen for the
place. This action aroused much i'll feeling
between DIR. Grinnell and the remainder Of tho
faculty The students. as a rule. took the side
OF Dr. Grinnell.
At the close Of the college year a majority OF
the faculty OF the Medical Department form
ally requested Dr. Grinnel to resign his
chair OF Theory and Practice OF Medicine. This
he declined to do The faculty then called
tho attention Of the trustees OF the
University to the matter in written
document charging DR.. Grinnell with
characterization and general disobeGience OF
orders and asking that he be removed The
trustees referred the matter to a committee
consisting OF Judge T. E. Wales. the Hon J. F.
Fineld. Mayor Robert Roberts. DR. W. Seward
Webb and Elk Gov Z. ]. Ormsbee.
1t was decided that the resignation Of the en-
tire faculty would be the best way out Of the
matter. The faculty thereupon resigned. leav-
Ing the trustees free to reorganize the depart
ment as they choose. The members OF the
Governing Board who resigned are: DR..
A. +. A. King. Washington. D. c.; DR.. A.
p Grinnel. Burlington: Dr. r. A. Witthaus.
New York: DR.. ]. II, Jackson. Barre; Dr. A.
NJ. Phelps. New York; DR.. H. c. Tinkham,
Burlington; Dr. J. y. JENNIE, st. Adams
For many years the medical department has
been controlled only in part by the trustees OF
the university. 1t Is probable that hereafter
the control will be more direct
