BERLIN, June 1.-THE London corre-
spondent of the Frankfurter Zeitung says:
The idea of having the United States
mediate between Great Britain and the
South African Republic is being favorably
discussed in important commercial circles
here. 1t is pointed out that at present no
power stands so close to Great Britain as
the United States. while at the same time
the fact that the republican form of gov
ernment prevails in the United States would
make Washington's mediation especially
acceptable TO the Beers. IL is also thought
that the prominent social and political po-
sition occupied by the descendants OF the
old hnickerbocker Dutch in the East of the
Union would be regarded by the Beers as a
factor recommending TO them the friendly
Intervention as arbiter.

across the road only remained In the cellar
about five minutes. the father having sug-
gested that the cloud was only rain. They
came up and in an instant the house was
demolished. The dead and injured members
we're scattered among the ruins.
The conductor OF a freight train saw the
cloud and stopped his train before II got
in the storm and when he reached the town
he held his train long enough to bring the
injured to the hospital in Sioux City.

stock and human beings were sucked up by
the terrible funnel-shaped cloud. the air
appearing to be filled with wrecked build

has been reported.
AT Homer an evangelists' tent was

wealthy people near by are Offering all the
assistance that they need. OF course there

hogs from Joe Wilkerson, one of the men
now in Jail. but the county attorney. the
sheriff. as well as members of the grand
Jury who found the bill, stated TO me that
testimony was very meager and that the
