The supreme court has dismissed the

to yellow fever quarantines. The

cular individuals.' Chief Justice

Special Correspondence of the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-One of the
New York penny dreadful papers did q
bit of sharp practice here yesterday,
which Senator Plstt may forgive some
time but is not likely to forget. The
paper was twisted up in libel suit in
New York aud as Plstt could not go on
to New York to testify the court on
tie application OF the paper appointed
a commissioner to take his testimony
here. The paper had its attorney and
a reporter. When the attorney led off
with question Senator, what posi-
ton do you occupy in New York
politics." the commissioner naturally
objected. Then the lawyer raised the
point that only the court in New York
was able to pass on objections and the
commissioner could not do so. Where
upon the commissioner subsidized and
the attorney and short hand man had
it all their own way. Whether Platt
answered or not, it was all good
material and they made the best of il.
Not a question was asked regarding
the matter in dispute, but Platt was
quizzed about every thing he ever did
or dreamed of doing. Finally he got
cross and then the newspaper people
enjoyed it more than ever.
w. J. Bryan is in town hunting is
sues. He says he is against ''imperi-
slism'' but in favor of expansion
on certain conditions. A man used to
uncertain word in the English Ian
guage, which is probably so. Anyhow,
the precise conditions under which
Bryan fsvors expansion did not devel-
op. The position of the traditional
man on a sen-foot barbed wire fence
with a bull on one side and dog on til e
other, is graceful ease itself compared
with Mr.. Bryan's attitude pending tie
democratic convention. Jus now he
is emulsting the man who was in fs-
vor of the "Maine law but ''agin" its
enforcement.
1t looks as though Porto Rico were
to be given free trade with US. The
trend of sentiment seems that way, on
the ground that it will help the island
and won't hurt US. Payne, Of New
York, wants to make il into a customs
district. The Porto Ricans naturally
want full admission, and If they do
not get it will likely carry a customs
suit up to the supreme court. If this
is done and the court should decide, as
il might do, that the constitution COW

People who hare lived here thirty-tive
years say they never saw or heard
such q tornado here as came about 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon. Shade
trees. telephone and electric light poles
and wires are tangled mass and fill
the streets and block the sidewalks.
! The belfry Of the Universalist church
was blown from the roof and demol-
ished. Outhouses and hay barns suf-
tered severely. A thousand shade
trees are broken off or uprooted. D. j.
Spauldings brick warehouse and root
cellar was demolished. Three young
men cleaning brick at the old iron fur
mace took shelter behind a brick wall
which blew over onto them. They are
an badly hurt and may die. The in
1ured are Conrad Olson, Edward Lin
nell and Herbert Adams. The damage
to growing crops is very severe, and
reports from the line Of the Green
Bay road indicate that the storm was
much more severe further north. The
main storm did not last over three
minutes.
