On Pearl street, near Myers avenue. a

conductor promptly drew his revolver and
fired three shots in the direction from
which the stones were thrown. Three
shots We're fired through the windows of

Nickel Plate station on the west side and
little later two rocks were sent crash
ing through the windows Of n car. No ar

average number. annually. OF tornadces,
which are we'll defined and destructive, is
about twenty-five and their frequency is
quite uniform from year to year. The de-
structlve tornsdoes or cyclones OF great
violence have been twenty -four in eight
years-or three each year. From 1889 to
1896 property 10 the value OF s3l 100000
was wrecked as much as s23, 100000 OF this
damage being effected by three tornadoes
which passed through regions OF dense
population. These were the Louisville tor
nado of March 81 1890, which destroyed
property to the value of $4,000, 900; the
st. Louis tornado of May 81. 1896. from
which the loss was sI3,o00.o00, and the hur-
ricane OF September 90 1896, which tray
eled from Cedar Keys TO Washington City,
doing damage to the amount OF $1,000
600. II will be seen that in 1895 alone
$4,000. 900 worth of property was lost in
two great storms. not counting many small
affairs OF cyclonic order. The rotary
velocity of the St Louis cyclone, Prof
Blgelow says, was 1T5 miles an hour!
In it's note upon the year book mentioned.
the Topeka State Journal exultingly re-
marks that Eastern people and those of
the Pacific coast who have regarded Kan
sas as the home OF the cyclone, will take
notice that the State is not included in
Prof. Bgelow's area OF greatest fire.
quency Happily the same can be said
Of Texas, but neither Kansas nor Texas
can deny that from actual experience they
know something OF what the cyclone looks
like and how ut operates"
The only defense against these anwel-
come visitors, the learned expert observes,
are walls that can stand a pressure Of
from forty to sixty pounds to the square
foot, applied aterally; but. he adds, moth
ing can be built which is likely to with
stand the vortex of a tornado when 1t

THE CLEVELAND STRIKE.

The use OF dynamite by the striking
street car men in Cleveland is especially
unfortunate for them and is setting an
example that the country at large and, in
fact, no community within 1t, will tolerate
or excuse. Violence of an indiscriminate
and recklessly cruel description, the Amer
lean people are not yet, II they will ever
be- prepared for.
These strikers had the sympathy of the
public at the beginning OF their strike
Not only was 1t shown that the company
had violated Its agreements with the men,
but the magnates haughtily and defautly
refused to listen to arbitration, The in
variable reply Of the big officials, while
a question OF u solemn lawful contract was
raised by the men. has been that there
was nothing to arbltrate' This not only
enraged the men. but 1t alienated from
the magnates any sympathy they might
have had at the first. from portion OF
the public. The reply was so brutal, was
indicative of so much contempt for their
employees or agreements, or the public,
was SO smacking OF the arrogance and
tyranny of monopoly, that the whole coun-
try began to question If the big company
had any defense whatever against the
claims OF the strikers.
When the strikers or their aiders and
abettors threw II dynamite bomb under a
loaded car in which there We're women, a
ear that contained people who had never
done the strikers an injury. and reck-
lcssly jeopardzed innocent human lives
M AT ri 1yh har
killed-they not only lost to large de-
gree the sympathy of the public. but they
lost their strike!
In many Instances strikers have won
when they had public sympathy with them
and continued by peaceful methods to re-
tain that good will OF the public through
out the strike. In fact. these are the
only strikes that are successful. 1t is
possibly true that not a single strike has
ever been won by rlotous conduct and
the resort to reckless and indiscriminate
violence!
The Cleveland men. from all accounts
have been badly treated, the company mag
mates have acted tyrannically and con-
temptibly. but when the strikers resorted
To bomb throwing and pulling non union
men on the cars and brutnlly beating
them, they called down upon themselves
the military arm of the law, alienated
public sympathy to large degree and
have virtually lost their fight.
When the dignihed and peaceful pres
entation of the rights OF strikers, coupled
with moral suasion and the good VIII OF
the community, can not win, It is certain
that reckless violence, even to the threat
ening OF innocent lives. can never score
victory in this country-there is too
great a respect for law and order still
left in the United States. The Post sym
pathized with these strikers. but 1t does
not fail to see the tremendous blunder
they have made.
