SEVERE WIND STORM
SEVERAL AWNINGS WE'RE BLOWN
 DOWN.
Rain Came Down In Sheets And Tor rents s-Weather Was Very warm Yesterday And storm
 Was Predicted.

The heavy rain and wind storm of last night, which visited Montgomery about II o'clock, was one of the se- verest in this city in many months. The play of the lightning, in long and almost unintermittent streaks, accom- panied by the dash of rain and a lusty wind, for a while gave the city about all that 1t was looking for, and some little uneasiness.
 The wind, So far as could be learned, did the most damage. Several street awnings were lifted from their frames by the force of the storm, and some little wreckage was done to buildings now in the process of erection. Tel ephone and telegraph wires came in for their full share of destruction, and unemen were kept busy on the vari- . ous telegraph dimes reparing a several circuit.
 The storm of last night was not en- tirely unexpected. Throughout the day the extreme humidity of the at- mosphere, which caused much suffer- ing on the streets yesterday, gave warning of an approaching storm. Owing to the condition of the atmos- phere, the weather was considered unusually warm, and ssome wagers were heard expressed that the day would average the hottest of the year.
 One prostration was reported as a result of the heat. About 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon Jack Cook, City Su- perintendent of Live Stock, was sum moned to the corner of Bibb and Tal- lapoosa streets to administer drugs and attend a horse which was worked to the fumigating wagon of the Sani- tary Department. The horse, by be. coming overloaded, had fallen to the cobbles directly in front of the West ern Union Telegraph Company, who're treatment was administered and every attention given the fevered animal, from. doses of medicine to a liberal spray of the hose. Mir. Cook antici- pated the animals death, whose fever in the early part of the evening was 11O degrees.

MORE TROOPS LANDED.
Fighting and Suffering Continue at
 Cnsa Rfamen.


 Tangier, August S-The French war ships yesterday landed 2.000 additional men at Casa Blanca where strife ap- parently continues, judging from the desultory firing heard day and night by those on board the ships anchored off the town.
 The Jewish quarter of Casa Blanca has been sacked. Many persons were massacred in the streets, the city is said to be full of dead Moors and the Moorish quarter is in ruins, having been set on fire by the shells from the big guns of the cruisers.
 All the stores are closed and much hunger and distress prevails among the poor. the foreign consuls have ordered the stores to be reopened and have established a special tariff for food -stuffs, designed to mitigate the sufferings of the poor. E
 The Europeans, who are all safe either on board ships or at the con- sulates are guarded by bluejackets.
 The warships continue to drop an occasional shell into groups of Kabyles on the beach In order to prevent them from approaching the town.
 Adivces, from Rabat say that the Kabyles have given the governor a fortnight in which to withdraw the French controller iof customs. Other- wise they say they will attack the town. The activity among the And jerras, tribesmen near Tangier is creat- ing some apprehension that a surprise attack may be made on the city.

BUILDERS STRIKE
LONG THREATENED TIE-Up OF IN-
 DUsTRY.
On All Buildings In Washington Where Non-Union Men Are Employed Union Men Will Not
 work

Washington. Aug. s.-The long threatened tie-up of the building in- dustries of Washington reached a crisis today when the carpenters, brick lay CTS and other union workmen employ ed on many buildings under construc- tion by contractors affiliated with the employers association we're ordered out.
 The general strike was formally de- cided upon last Saturday by a confer ence of the representatives of seven teen international and national build ing trade unions, but no effort was made to put the strike order into effect until local No l International Brick layers and Stonemasons Union last night decided to join fin the fight against the open shop policy of the employers association.
 Business agents of the building trades union made thorough canvass of the city today to determine how many buildings there are under con- struction by members of the employ CTS association where non-union me- chanics are at work. This canvass was completed this afternoon and the gen. eral strike order waa at once promul- gated. It is estimated by labor union leaders that from 800 to TOO men will not report for work tomorrow.
 Officers of the employers association stated tonight that they would have nc ,dificulty in filling the strikers places. On the other hand business agents of the unions declare that number of the members of the employers associa- ton have signed an agreement to em- ploy only union men and that the union men employed by them will not be ask ed to obey the strike order.
 Among the buildings affected by the
 
 and the Washington Eiks home. The office buildings of the United States Senate and the House of Representa- tives. the new municipal building and the union railroad station are not in- voIved.

Washington, June 27.-The pros
poets are that the treaty between the
United States of Colon bia and the re-
public of Panama, now being negOti-
ated- will not receive its final touches
until next autumn. The United
States government, through the de
partment Of state, has been making
an effort TO get the two countries on
basis where they may conclude
treaty relations.
Friendly Attitude.
Responsive to its labOrs thus far,
Colombia has submitted for the con
sideration of the Panama govern
ment a memorandum which, if &C
ceptable in principle. may form the
basis of the convention between the
two nations. Both governments are
being assisted in every way possible
by the United States government IN
the steps looking to an amicable m

In the proposed treaty the PROPOSE
tiOr $ said to be that Colombia shall
recognize Panama as an Independent
nation, the only country in the world
that has not yet done so.
Debt Assumption.
Some understanding also may be
reached as 10 the amount of the for
eign debt of Colombia that shall
be recognized and assumed by PaHa-
ma in return for the South American
states surrendeTing all claim 10 18TH

United States to assume some portion
of the debt, but the exact amount of
the $1,000, 900, which il aggregates,
has not yet been determined. Colon
bia bonds are now selling at So. ac-
l.
as against 26 al the time of the seces-
