STORM DOWN SOUTH
A Severe Tornado Near Peterman.
Ala, Does Much Damage.
TEN PERSONS ARE REPORTED KILLED
H. p. salter. His Wife and Child. While
Riding Along o Road. We're Crushed
by Tree Failing Across
Their Wagon.

Birmingham, Ala, April 15.-Spe-
Gals to the Age-Herald from Ever
green, Ala, says: News has reached
here by telephone confirming ru-
mors of heavy loss of life and prop
erty in the neighborhood of Peter
man and Burnt Corn, wrought by the
tornado which passed near there
Monday. Ten persons are known to
have been killed and numerous barns,
residences, fences and outhouses
were swept away, entailing a loss
which will reach high in the thou
sands. On account of the bad con-
dition of the wires communication is
difficult and the only name that could
be obtained of the dead is Henry
Salter, a well-known planter. Sew
eral residences were demolished, the
timber falling on the occupants, kill
ing and injuring all within the build
ings. It will probably be several
days before a correct list of the
casualties can be obtained, as there
is neither telegraph nor railroad
connection. The heavy rains have
rendered the roads almost impassa-
BILE.
Peterman is in Monroe county,
just across the line from Conecup,
and is not within rs miles of rail
road or telegraph station. All news
so far received has come over the
telephone lines, which are several
miles from the path of the storm.
Crushed the Occupants to Death.
Montgomery, Ala, April ia spe-
cial to the Advertiser from Ever
green, Ala, says: A terrific wind,
rain and hailstorm passed over the
western portion of Conecup county
early Monday evening, resulting in
the death of three persons. H. P.
Salter, his mother and child were
riding along a road and were oppo-
site clump of trees when the storm
overlook them. A heavy tree that
was uprooted by the wind fell across
the wagon, crushing all of the occu-
pants to death.

REQUESTED TO EXPLAIN.
The War Department Asks Gen. Baldwin
II He Is Correctly Quoted In Hia Re-
marks ON FilIpin0s and Negroes.

Washington, April 15.-The war de-
partment has taken official cogni-
zance of the reported statements OF
Gen. Frank D. Baldwin, commander
Of the department Of the Colorado,
in disparagement Of the Filipinos
and negroes as soldiers, and Secre-
tary Root yesterday directed that a
formal inquiry be addressed TO Gen.
Baldwin, asking whether or not he
had been correctly quoted. Pending
a reply no action will be taken by the
department. Gen. Baldwin is fresh
from the Philippines and has just
assumed command of the department
of the Colorado. The alleged re-
marks which he is reported to have
made were to the effect that one Of
his reasons for liking the Filipino as
a soldier was the same that gave
him preference for the negro in
the same capacity--that in fight he
was not worried about his safety.
as it did not make any difference
whether he got killed or not.

lTHEBOODLECHARGE
Senator Stone Before the Grand
Jury at St. Louis.
INVESTIGATION At JEFFERSON CITY.


x st. Louis, April 15.-United Statei
Senator Stone was before the CRANE
\ liury one hour and 20 minutes ant
when he came from the jury room hi
said:
II think my testimony will be OF
no value in prosecuting any Doodle
charge. My inclination would be
that my testimony be made public
II the grand jury could authorize II
sI would be glad that the stenog-
i rapher make transcript and have
II published at my expense. After
this is over | will make a full state
ment upon these matters"
Senator Stone said he would go to
Jefferson City tonight to visit his
family.
Senator Orchard arrived last night
from Jefferson City. He stated he
would testify to-day, but had moth
ing more to say.
It is known to q certainty that sew
eral state senator's will be indicted
this week. Indeed, 1t is asserted
that one already has been indicted at
z Jefferson City and one in this city.
Most of the indictments are expected
10 come from the Jefferson City
body, the local grand jury serving
merely as auxiliary to that body.
The majority of the boodling opera
1ions naturally took place in Jeffer-
son City. Much Of the proof is to
be found in this city, where the
bcodlers found they could spend their
Doodle to greater advantage than In
Jefferson City.
The Investigation ut Jefferson City.
Jefferson City, Mo-, April 15.-The
witnesses before the grand jury yes
ferday were Senators Schoenlaub,
Collins and Sartorius, Of St. Louis,
and Former Senator Haynes, of st.
Joseph. Nothing definite could be
learned regarding the nature Of their
Testimony, but It is learned that SEN
ator Collins was asked to explain
how be came into possession Of seven
$1,000 bills, which he publicly dis
PLAYED in st. Louis soon after the
adjournment Of the legislature.
Lieut.. Gov. Lee arrived from Kan
sas City yesterday afternoon and will
70 before the grand jury to-day
story that he is thinking Of resign
ing created much suppressed COM i
ment here last night. Considering
the facts which have come out, such
action on the part Of Lee would not
be surprising. When an effort was
made to see him regarding the proba-
bility OF his presenting his resigna-
tion to the governor, word was given
chat he could not be seen and that
he had left instructions not to adj
init reporters.

A WHITE WEDDING.
The NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Nuptiais Brilliant
AFFAIR How the Bride Was Gowned
Tho Gifts Costly.

Newport, X. l.. April 15.-The we'd
ding of Reginald C. Vanderbilt, of
New York, the youngest son of the
late Cornelius Vanderbilt, and Miss
Cathleen G. Nelson, also Of New
York, which occurred at "Arleigh"
at noon yesterday, was brilliant be-
ginning of the social season of 1908
at Newport. As the marriage took
place In private villa, 1t lacked
much Of the splendor which usually
attends a church function. About
1850 guests, nearly all from New York,
were present. 1t was white we'd
ding. The decorations were white
ION background of green, the brides
maids were gowned in white with
white picture hats; the bridegroom,
his best man and the ushers wore
white puff cravats and white bouton-
nieres. The weather was gray and
cold, with misty northeast wind
blowing from the sea. Rev. Father
Meenan, of the Catholic church, Of
ficiated,
The bride was gowned in heavy
white silk with costly veil of rare
lace flowing back from the crown OF
her head to the end of the train.
Around her throat was tightly
clasped a serpent necklace of rarest
pearls, the gift of the bridegroom.
The ceremony was brief. A reception
followed and an inspection was made
Of the bridal gifts, which were de-
clared to be probably as costly an
array as was ever bestowed on two
young people at the advent of their
married life. Then came the wedding
breakfast. Mr.. and Mrs. Vanderbilt
left for their new villa at Sandy
Point, few miles up the island, dur
ing the afternoon, where they will
spend few days, previous to three
months trip to Europe.
