TERRIBLE TORNADO STRIKES
BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA

Birmingham. Ala, March 26.-Short-
ly before ten O'Clock yesterday morning
a fearful tornado swept over the south
ern part Of this city. The number Of
killed tonight is estimated at twenty
five, OF whom five are white. The de-
struction Of property is placed at over
a quarter of million dollars. Eighteen
bodies had been recovered up to seven
p. M, and scores of injured have been
removed to the hospitals.
Among the dead are DR.. G. G. Chap
man of Tally & Chapman's private in
Urinary, and the wife and infant child
of Robert ]. Lowe. chairman of the
Democratic State Executive Commit
tee.
The morning dawned cloudy and
sultry and grew more threatening rs
the day advanced. Clouds began to
gather, and shortly after nine o'clock
sharp lightning flashed from the south
west. The air became heavy and
sitting. The velocity of the wind sud-
denly began to increase, and out of the
overcast sky the dread funnel-shaped
cloud made Its appearance. Hugging
close to the earth, 1t came down upon
the city. The altitude of the cyclone
was not more than scventy-five feet
The negro shanties and cottages in the
lowlands were the principal sufferers.
The large residences on the higher
ground suffered but slightly. The large
trees on the hillside of st. Vinccnt's
hospital were torn mp by the roots, and
an immense quantity of stone was
twisted out of the ground and broken
and scattered over the driveways lead
ing to the institution.
From Eighth to Tenth street the tor
nado bounded like rubber ball, and
when 1t again descended 1t struck n
two-story house occupied by Joseph
Busenheiner and almost razed It to
the ground. The 11-year-old daughter
of John Krunsey was caught under
the debris and severely injured.
Onward the wind sped in its fury,
demolishing trees and fences, until it
reached Eleventh street, where house
owned by John Hayes was lcveled to
the ground. Skimming close to the
earth, the storm swept through n
young pine grove. tearing the trees up
by the roots and hurlins them through
the air like arrows.
Beyond the grove the storm cloud
swooped down upon the negro settle
ments, and cabins We're crushed, not
one being left In the pathway.
Eastward the storm swept. cutting
Its way through another strip of woods,

Lord Lnnsdownc then considers the

He lays most stress. however. upon

GREAT BRITAIN REJECTS THE
HAY.PAUNCEFOTE TREATY

Washington. March 26-The answer
of the British government expressing
its inability to accept the IIay-Paunce-
fote treaty in the form amended by the
Senate was made public yesterday. 1t
says there was no desire on the part
of the British government to change
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, but some
of Its provisions had been regarded
with dlsfayor by the government OF
the United States. and In the Prcsl-
dents message OF December. 1898. 1t
was urged that the national policy
called more imperatively than ever for
the control Of the projected highway
by the government of the United
States.
1t says the drawing up OF the Hay
Pauncefote treaty was the result of
discussions over the building of the
canal by the United States, previous
To which the Clayton Bulwer treaty
must be amended or n new treaty con
cluded.
The British government was not yet

not see how her mnjesty's government
