Great Destruction Is Wrought
By Terrific Storm.

tation, terrible and complete, was
wrought on all sides Of the Twin Git
les, by the storm of Sunday night
according to reports just received here
Through all the region from AnOka
to Fillmore counties reports tell ot
disaster and loas of life and property
Members Of families are missing
and it is believed they are buried un
der the debris which was strewn
broadcast by the wind.
Many instances of manning are re
ported, and the total loss of life will
not be known for some days.
Crops, which had been cut ana were
ready for threshing, suffered in many
places and standing corn was damaged
by hail and wind Hailstones several
inches in circumference, wrought hav
oc with the crops in some sections
Large sections of railroad track were
swept away south of here and the
mail trains on certain portions of the
Chicago, Milwaukee ana st. Paul road
were run in on improvised tracks
Washouts were numerous, both along
the railroads and the highways, the
rainfall being enormous.
In some of the farming localities
the grain was stripped from the fields
by the furious winds and rain, and
haystacks were completely demolished
Huge trees, which have successfully
Withstood the storms of years, were
uprooted and hurled before the wind
and barns and other outbuildings were
completely destroyed. The damage
done to buildings and crops in the
southern counties will reach many
thousands of dollars, but no accurate
estimate can be formed until complete
reports are received
All sections report that the storm
was cyclonic in it's nature, and from
some points reports tell of funnel
shaped cloud that descended with the
most intense fury, leaving destruction
in its path

New Orleans, August 22.-Showers
today promised some amelioration OF
the high temperatures which have been
prevailing, but otherwise there was lit
tie change in the yellow fever situa-
ton.
SIX deaths during the night prom,
ised that today's total would run about
equal With that of the preceding "a
hours. There was little variation
in the number of new cases in the
early morning report. The medical au-
thorities said today that evidence OF
the fact that the situation is constant
ly improving, insofar as the system of
controlling it is concerned, was to be
found in the fact that cases are now
being reported six and eight hours
after they are taken down. 1t is an
indication of the efficiency with which
the local physicians are cooperating
with the federal authorities Report of
cases promptly on their occurrence
permits immediate screening and thus
lessons the changes for infection of
persons who have not been attacked
One of the cases reported today in
the city was of Salvador Lucca, a sail
or on the schooner at Spanish Fort.
He had been i'll for several days. There
is possibility therefore that others
on the same schooner will be affect
el as we'll as members Of other crews.

Fight Not Won Vet.
While the leaders in the fight
against yellow fever feel that the great
struggle is succeeding beyond their
expectations, there is no disposition
to lull the public into a false sense
of security lest there shall be a relax
alton of the efforts which it is essen
tiai that every householder shall make
if the present control of the disease
is to be maintained. The fight has
not yet been won, said Professor Metz,
of Tulane university, today in urging
every citizen to keep up his enthusi-
asm. We are only on the foothills;
the mountains are yet to be scaled;
the Notifications are yet to be taken
In the next two or three weeks it will
be known whether the disease can be
stamped out or checked. If it can
be stamped out, it will be a miracle.
That it can be held in check is be-
lieved, but the people of New Orleans
must exert themselves to the utmost
With the deaths, however, running
into the fifties and rapidly approach
ing the eighties at this time in 1878. and
the new cases of genuine yellow fever
approXimating 200 against less than a
dozen deaths daily now, there is con-
sidered to be every justification for
the encouragement (which DR.. White
announces he feels over the situation.
Especially encouraging is the situa-
ton above Canal street. The disease
has struggled desperately to gain a
foothold in that section, but has failed.
There have been a considerable num-
ber of cases but they are widely scat
tered and there is not a nest of them
to be found anywhere from Canal to
the upper limits of the parish.
Some days ago President Souchon
wrote to the railroads asking them
to put on small trains to come of the
towns which are in sore distress be-
cause communication is cut off, Gener-
al Superintendent Cushing of the
Southern Pacific has written a reply
that the road is now running trains at
a heavy loss to afford service for non
| infected localities. Travel, however,
| is so light that these trains are earn
ing less than one-fourth of what it
costs to run them, and additional IA

The cases reported from st. Bernard

how difficult it is to keep track OF

the standard stocks was St. Paul with its z1k~point rise. Reiterated rumors of an early issue of it's treasury stock to stockholders and the extension of the system to the Pacific coast were used again to stimulate the speculation in the stock.
 Attention was attracted to the money situation by the heavy transfers to in terior points through the sub-treasury and by an engagement of gold at the sub-treasury which was suspected to be intended for export. The $75o0o0 gold engaged at the sub-treasury is expect ed to go to South America, and this is a demonstration of the ability of the London market to draw on New York to meet its South American obligations. Rates for money were not appreciably affected by these developments nor by the reported large subscription for the Japanese loan. Preparations are begin ming, however, for the December settle- ments, which are largely in excess of those for this period last year.
 An attempt was made to rally the market before the closing, but the re- ,roveries did not hold and the closing tone was decidedly weak, with Reading breaking badly three points just at the last.

YESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKET
Unusual Violence of Speculation fin
 Some Stocks.


 New York, Nov. 2S.-speculation in some special stocks attained unusual violence to-day, and the general market in the latter part of the day showed signs of Weariness in consequence of these excesses and yielded quite gen. erally. Very heavy demand upon this center for currency also had a part in the uncertain tone of the later market. The movement showed some irregular ity from the outset and it was obvious that large profit taking was going on in the midst of the most excited advances in the specialties. The southern iron group and the metal industrials at- traeted the largest share of speculative activity. Tennessee Goals upshoot of 5az supplemented rise of over Il points yesterday, while Leads jump of points was only slightly in excess of the rise in yesterdays market. The dealings in these two stocks were confused and feverish to the highest degree. One after another stock in the list of ob- scure industrials was taken up and put through some such process as this, all though none made quite such mercu- rial fluctuations as the two named. The later reaction in the market made wide inroads on these advances and carried the average level of prices elsewhere well below last night. The most con- spicuous example of strength among

Teddy (aged eighty in the morning
had received instructions from his
father "never to hurry his elders -
once he had asked for a thing he should
rest patiently, waiting their eonven-
fence to get around to It.
Teddy in the evening climbed into
bed without saying his usual prayers
The intimate connection between these
two events transpired a moment later,
when Tetldy's mamma asked why the
prayers had been neglected.
"I've asked God for tree nights to
make Teddy a good boy, an If 1 ain z
it's cause Gods ben KEEP busy
