WINSTON CHURCHILL
DEFEATED AT POLLS
Manchester Refuses to Return Young
Leader to Parblament-Resuit a
Surprise.

Manchester, Eng, April 25.-The
northwest division of Manchester by
the heaviest poll cast in twenty years
yesterday reversed its verdict Of 1906
and by majority Of 429 votes urseal-
ed sits member OF parliament, Win
ston Spencer Churchill, liberal, who
has Just been made president of the
board Of trade in the new Asquith
cabinet and who 50 brilliantly wrested
the seat from w. j. Hicks, unionists,
his chief opponent yesterday.
The defeat of Mr. Churchill is a
crushing blow to the prestige OF the
government, and the young and con.
fideut minister, which is bound to
have q marked effect on several pend
Ing by-elections. There will be no dif.
ficulty In finding for Mr.. Churchill q
safe seat elsewhere The liberals may
derive from their defeat what con-
clusion Is possible from the fact that
prior to 1905 the northwest division
seat was held consistently BY the con.
servatives.

New Orleans, La, April 2.-Ove
two hundred persons killed and a
least five hundred injured are th'
grim facts which came to hight this
morning when a little of the wreckagt
of yesterdays tornadoes in Louisiana
Mississippi and Alabama had beer
cleared away. The tornadoes lasted al
together about twelve hours, or from
daylight Friday until mid-afternoon
one following closely upon another
and striking promiscuously one towr
right after another.
The town of Purvis, Mississippi
was completely destroyed, five were
practically blown away and fifteer
Iother villages reduced to more or less
acute stages of ruin. The towns which
suffered the woN damage in addition
to Puryk were Amite, Louisiana, Nc
Callum, McLaurn and Winchester
Mississippi and Albertville, Alabama
In Puryis of two hundred dwellings
and business buildings, only seven
were left standing.
After the tornado had struck, trains
bearing hundreds of injured came
crawling into this city, leaving behind
the fearful scenes of desolation and
ruin. These injured brought details OF
one of the most fearful disasters in
the history of the Gulf states. Many OF
those injured will likely die while 9th.
ers will be bereft of their reason by
the horrifying scenes attending the
storms.
Over half of the dead are negroes,
most Of whom were killed when their
f1imsy cabins were crushed as If they
were egg shells, Most of the badly in.
jured are among this class. II is esti.
mated that between 175 and 200 ne
groes were killed and at least 300 in
jured. The unidentified white dead
early today numbered so.
Effect Of Storm at Amite.
Amite, Louisiana was so badly dam
aged that 1t was put under martial
law at once by order of the mayor.
The storm struck there just about
noon, killing two white persons and
thirteen negroes outright and injur.
ed many others, mostly negroes. The
total death list at Amite will reach at
least twenty-five. Rev. Father Felix
Rumpf was possibly the first person
killed at Amite. He was in the bell
tower Of his church, having just finish
ed ringing the bell. He was crushed
to death by the falling tower Mrs. A.
w. Ogden of Amite was caught by
the tornado as she was driving home.
A tree fell across her horse killing the
animal instantly but she escaped un.
hurt Forty persons were dining at the
Commercial Hotel, when the storm
carried away the roof, but fortunately
none OF the diners were hurt. The
path of the tornado was about two
and one-half miles wide and when It
passed Amite, large numbers of farm
animals were killed.
Greatest Loss Of Life Among Negroes

negroes occurred In the vicinity OF
