DESTRUCTION AT
BATTLE MOUNTAIN

Saturday night about nine o'clock a
regular Kansas cyclone swept over the
country just west of Battle Mountain
and considerable damage is reported.
Along its path, trees, fences and sage
brush were torn up and fifty-two tele-
graph poles were twisted into splint-
ers.
The cyclone travelled in a south
easterly direction and its north end
touched Battle Mountain with disas
trous results. Fences were blown
over, chimneys were carried away and
a big wind mill on the Hancock hotel
was blown over, falling upon portion
of the house in the roof and side. Al
though it was only the extreme edge
that struck the town buildings trem-
bled To an alarming degree, badly
frightening their occupants. Tele-
graphic communications were cut off
to western points, from Battle Noun
tain for a number of hours, and a
message from Reno to Carlin to the
lineman at that place was obliged to
go by way of San Francisco, Portland
and Chicago.
The course of the cyclone is plainly
marked for long distance, where all
trees, sagebrush and etc. were torn
up by the roots. Fortunately no one
is reported injured

WRIGHT
JURY
HUNG
After Being Out All Night,
Fail to Agree, and Are
Dismissed

After being out all night, the jury in
the Wright case finally announced this
morning, at IL o'clock, that they could
mot agree, and were therefore dismissed.
The case will not come on for trial
again before the October term of court,
as the witnesses in the case are now all
scattered.
That some Of the jurors were con-
vinced of his guilt there is no doubt,
since no verdict of acquittal was
brought in. 1t is not known, however,
sop what point they disagreed. 1t is
possible that they all thought him gull
sy, but could not agree as to the degree
OF guilt.
As stated in yesterdays Journal, a
large portion of the testimony covered
the same ground as that introduced at
the trial of Charles Monte, who was
.jointly indicted with Wright. In an at
Hempt to prove the whereabouts Of the
defendant at the time Of the murder Of
Guard Frank Ferrell, Of the Oregon
Penitentiary, by Convicts Tracy and
Merrill, contradictory evidence was in
troduced, and no effort was made by
either the prosecution or defense to
establish the unreliability Of the 9th
er's witness. Alvin Jones, Of this city,
testified positively that Harry Wright
was in Salem June 8, 1909, while A.
Harm was equally positive that the de-
fendant was in his employe at George
town, Wash, on the same date.
One Of the new witnesses in this case
was Mrs. Alvin Jones, Of this city, who
testified that when Wright was released
from the penitentiary in May, 1902, he
VISITED at her home on several differ.

called, and he swore positively that he
saw Harry Wright in this city on June
8, 1902, the day before the outbreak.
He testified that he saw him at three
different times during tho day, but did
not converse with him. He said he was
positive in tho matter, as he had been
looking for Wright, intending to prose

ashore.
After he had killed all but one Of
the men, he ordered the last survivor
