 Family of l2.

New York, March 3.-Stories of es- capes from the Russian frontier on
 rafts and of massacres alleged to nave occurred iD the cellars of Moscow homes during the recent outbreak there were told here to-day by Rus sian refugees. These stories came from some of the 2,OOO Russians ana Russian Jews who arrived here yes terday on the steamer Pennsylvania from Hamburg and who passed the immigration inspection today.
 Rebecca Isaacs, b years old, on. or the refugees from Moscow, said that she was the last of a family of twelve and that her father, mother, brothers and sisters were killed by soldiers during the late uprising She said for two days she was hidden in dark corner of the cellar in her home, which soldiers entered at intervals in search of the occupants. The other members of the family, she said, were found and killed. some of them so near ner that she heard their unavailing cries for mercy. She is now on her way to West Virginia, having been taken in charge by family named Micnaeio- vitz which is going there.
 Michael Slatovitch, who lived near the Austrian frontier in Russia, es capped with his entire family by cross ing the river Vistula to Austrian ter r1tory on a raft under cover of dark ness.

TO TALK SOCIALISM
Secret Conference Held at the Country Residence of J. C.
 Phelps Stokes.

New York. March 3-The World to-day says: A secret political confer ence was begun last night at the country residence of J. G. Phelps Stokes. Noroton Point. Conn. It will last four days. During that time mat ters of vital importance to the well fare of socialism will be discussed.
 Invitations to the conference were sent our from New York about a month ago. The recipients were eau toned to observe secrecy, as it was desired that nothing should be known of the gathering.
 There were about dozen men 1t the conference last night, but more are on the way. Among those con- spicuous last night, besides Mr Stokes was his brother ill law. Robert Hun ter. who has pronounced ideas about civic affairs. Mir Hunter has been styled socialist but has never ac- knowledged himself as an out and out follower of socialism.
 Mrs Stokes who is said to have at tended to the issuing of the invita- tions. received besides Mir Hunter, several other New York men who are said to be ayoWed socialists. and they took prominent part in the confer ence. Who these men were. Mr Stokes when interviewed. refused to say.
 T have a few gentlemen at my house and we are discussing mattl of interest to all voters" he said. "We are taking up important public ques- tions. That is all l care to say"
 Mr Stokes begged to be excused when asked if most of the conferees were not socialists and if th gather ing would not discuss some means of organizing the socialist party on more vigorous fighting basis. He said be was not at liberty to answer any such question as the gentlemen pres- ent would not like it." :.
 MT Stokes. who was the Municipal Ownership candidate at the last cleo ton for president of the board of d. dermen. refused to talk about the pos hibility of a coalition between the Municipal Ownership party and the socialists in the coming gubernatorial as a result of the confer ance.
 We are talking of things that in- terest every citizen and we shall try to keep our deliberations secret" was all he would say.
 Tie real business of the conference, It is said. will begin today, upon the arrival of Josep Medill Patterson, who resigned as commissioner of public works of Chicago. Mir Patterson who was appointed by Mayor Dunne as a Municipal Ownership man, announced upon sending in his resignation, that ne would in future be socialist.

CITY BANKS NOT AFFECTED
May De Due to Sene Extest to Senator PeeL,.
 Oppositiea.

The banks in this state that are jn-
 terested In the financial enterprises
 or John R. Walsh, the Chicago bank. CT who was arrested yesterday on tbe onler Of the government for fradulant testimony regarding an item of s. Vo,VV, will not be affected in any way by his apprehension. Waterbury
 oahks are not much interested in him anyway and to some extent this is owing to the opposition of Senator Peck to Mir Walsh's schemes that came before the last legislature. Sen ator Peck is president of the Dime Savings bank.
 Mir Walsh was vitally concerned in number of railroad companies which went under the name of Southern In. diana on the stock market. He was promiseuous in Hartford during the last general assembly trying to get Dill passed extending the right of in- vestment by savings banks to the bonds issued by the Southern Indiana. Senator Peck opposed the measure from the outset and did all he could to enlist the services of his colleagues to have 1t reported unfavorably, and he was successful.
 Thereupon Mir Walsh engaged the services of Representative kenealy of Stamford and Healey of Windsor Locks and Mir Healey enlisted Attor- ney Fessenden and his own colleague Mir Culey of Windsor Locks. With this array supporting the bill. the minority on the committee reported fayorably and one day toward the close of the assembly it was rushed through despite all that Senator Peck and his adherents could do.
 Talking about the matter today Senator Peck said he did not think that Southern Indiana bonds were good investment for savings banks. though he had every faith in them. however. There are only two or three banks in the state interested in Southern Indiana. he said. and the amount they have invested does not exceed Sl0.0Dl He was confident that Mir Walsh'S difficulties will not affect these banks fn the slightest degree.

downpOur of rain and then with a
 rush and noise that struck terror to
 the stoutest hearts the tornado de.
 scended upon that portion of the city
 near the passenger depot.
 Tt came toward the city from the
 southwest following the railroad
 tracks which passed through Meridian
 along Front street Among the first
 buildings to go down was the electric
 lighting plant and ne city was
 thrown into stifiing darkness. Con
 fusion reigned. People rushed into
 the streets from every direction. That
 the deaths were not more than an- nonnced is marvellous, but can be ac- counted for probably by the fact that many employees of wrecked houses, depots and offices maintaining large clerical forces had finished the days work and gone to their homes. Front street is devastated. Few houses are left standing there. The path of the tornado was about two blocks wide, extending from the pas senger depot northward to beyond street. Buildings on Twenty second avenue from First to Second street. in a northerly direction, are wrecked. A large portion of the Grand Avenue ho- tel was destroyed. The !. NJ. c. A. building directly opposite was wreck ed and the Old Sulphur hotel and the new union passenger station were de stroyed
 Tn this same area was the Meridian Cement works which the storm wreck ed. Officers of the company estimated their loss at $25O,GO0. A large cotton ware house, where thousands of bales of cotton were stored, was demolished and cotton was scattered i'll every d. rectiOn
 T think the damage will be more than a million dollars. The loss of life is estimated at about thirty-five, many of whom are negroes.
 'sTo add to the terror of the night fire broke out in various parts Of the ruined district. It was known that many were under the ruins of the wrecked buildings. To rescue these was the first task. Vandalism was also soon apparent and to keep back persons who were frenzied with grief over missing friends and relatives, the local militia was called out by the mayor. A cordon of armed men was thrown around the ruined business district. Lamps, candles and lanterns were pressed into service by those en- gagged in the work of rescue.
 Soon after the ruins caught fire an alarm was sent in to the fire depart ment. The firemen worked heroically to confine the fire to the ruined area and by two o'clock their efforts hal succeeded.
 ''Wreckage, ruin and death appear to the eye along the path of the tor nado as it leaus into the country. Tel agraph wires for miles in either direc- ton are prostrated.
 Tn the area struck by the tornado the wreck Is complete. But few build- ngs are left standing and they are damaged. Among the mer- ,antile houses destroyed are some of he largest concerns in Meridian. As to the dead. only the clearing away of he debris and wreckage can give a complete list"
 A d.~ra+nh received at l o'clock this morning from Meridian announced the ieath of B. F. Elmire. proprietor o. Elmire's restaurant Elmire's rela- ives live in Mobile.
