A dispatch from Elizabeth, n. J., last
night says: A tornado swept over this city
this afternoon, doing great damage. Houses,
churches. factories and all buildings in the
storms path, which was three blocks wide,

The storm came from the southwest and
passed to northeast Its velocity eighty
miles an hour, and its duration ten min

Third Presbyterian and Central Baptist
churches were thrown down. The Byceum
Theater was totally unroofed, and the Star
Theater roof was ripped off and hurled two
blocks away. Scores of dwelling houses

In many cases the wind after unrooting
houses, whipped all the furniture out of
the upper stories and scattered bureaus.
bedsteads and chairs through the air and
deposited them in streets and yards many
blocks distant.
The streets are almost impossible be-
cause of debris. Electric wires are O.. ed

portions of houses. roofs, corniceS, fGrni-
ture and small buildings which were whip

streets and against the sides of buildings

poured down into the houses and buildings
that were unroofed half filled many of the
cellars and ruined everything in the lower
floors
No one was killed or seriously hurt, but
many persons were slightly injured by be-
ing struck by flying debris.

Between and > o'clock yesterday after

unusual severity. The downpour of rain
amounted almost to a cloudburst and it

some sections by hail. The storm spread
over nearly the entire county, and was the
worst since the tornado of three years ago
In Rockville and vicinity there was no hail
and the damage in this section was very
slight, amounting to nothing more than in
juries to trees. In the lower part OF the
county the storm was terrific. In this sec
ton a great quantity of hail fell and grow
ing crops were almost completely destroyed
large number of trees We're also uprooted
and several houses were unroofed. AT Ken

ALEXANDRIA. Va, August 3, 1899.
The question of putting this city in
better sanitary condition and of taking pre-
cautionary measures against the possible
advent of yellow fever is engaging the at
tention of the city authorities. Since in
spectors from Washington were detailed to
watch the cars and steamboats, coming up
from southern Virginia citizens have been
specula ting as to what disposition would be
made of a yellow fever suspect should one
be discovered upon the arrival here of a
train or steamboat. 1t has been suggested
that such suspects would be detained here.
but Mayor Simpson this morning derided
the idea saying that under no condition
would it be allowed Yesterday afternoon
Health officer Miller called a meeting of
the board of health, but. no quorum APP
pearing, the meeting was postponed until
this afternoon at o'clock. DIR. Miller.
when asked this morning, could not predict
what action would be taken. The questions
to be considered. he said, were the i'm
provement of sanitary conditions, and the
prevention of yellow fever. In general DIR.
Miller thought that some recommendation
would be made to the council, which will
probably be called together tomorrow
night Existing conditions bring up the
matter discussed in council last winter OF
