Trail OF Ruin
Left by Storm
in Ohio Town
Many People Injured, Homes De-
molished by Cyclone of But Three
Minutes Duration.

YOUNGSTOWN, o.. April 5.-In three
minutes time a cyclonic wind came and
went in the midst of a rainstorm late to-
day, and left in it's wake southeast of the
city a score of injured people, thousands
of frightened ones, ten demolished houses
and hundred partially wrecked. The loss
is upwards Of 100000.
The storm came from the west and did
the heaviest damage in Langsville, where
it razed five houses and wrecked three
others At Hazelton it wrecked the power
plant of the Republic Iron and Steel COM
pany works, crushing in the store and sa-
loon fronts on both sides of one street. un-
rooted and demolished the gable of the
Methodist church, blew in windows of the
public schools, and continuing over hill
uprooted trees and pulled down poles and
wires
Miss Grace Wheat, a teacher, was try
ing to close the windows in a school house
when the wind blew in the panes Of all
the windows around her and the pupils
flew panic-stricken to the hall, where
ianitor controlled them The home of Mrs.
Elizabeth Cox of Langsville was blown off
its foundation and fell upon the home of
George Hamburg. Mrs. Hamburg literally
threw her 6-year-old girl from a window
and jumped herself, but neither was seri-
ously hurt. The house was demolished.
Similar experiences were had in dozens
of homes. The injured include George Gal
lott. whose leg was almost severed with
flying slate and S. T. Glover, a carpenter,
who was pinned in the debris of fallen
building. Galott probably will die The
others will recover

Nice Soft Rugs

Board of Education Looks to Com
fort Ahead of Economy in
School Furnishing.

When the Board of Education met Mon
day night the subject which brought forth
the most debate was concerning the pur-
chase Of rugs for the Walnut Hin and
Howard Kennedy schools. James c. Lind
say chairman Of the committee on sup
plies, recommended that rugs be procured
for the buildings, and Paul W, kuhns
said that he thought it would be much
better TO buy first-class linoleum, as it
would look as well and wear much longer.
Mr. Kuhns spoke al some length about
the difficulty experienced In keeping rugs
clean, whereas Hnoleum could ne kept
bright and neat by few rubs with mop.
Dr. Grant W Williams was also in favor
Of substituting ljnoIeum for rugs, and
made an amendment TO that effect which
was seconded by Mr., Kuhns, Mr. Lindsay
arose and made a speech in favor Of pleas
ing the women. lie said that personally
he thought linoleum better than rugs, but
the fair sex he said, seem to have a
foudness for rugs
"They like to see the pretty rugs about"
he said. "and although a linOleum carpet
may be better, they Ike 10 have some
thing soft to put their feet on. They like
TO see rugs about and you know we have
to cater somewhat 20 the women That's
why the committee recommended the pur-
chase Of the rugs. They are harder 70
keep clean than inoleum and perhaps
won't be kept in as good shape, but the
women teachers like them. and We want

A roll call was taken and four we're In

SENATOR CONCER RESIGNS
New York Legislator surrenders Of.
flee as Aftermath Of Aids Scandal.
SITUATION INTENSELY DRAMATIC
Accused Statesman Trembles ~ He
Makes Final speech and Expresses
one Regret that He Has Not
Denounced "the Gang"

ALBANY, n. Y, April 5.-Rising to
question OF personal privilege in the senate
tonight Senator Ben Congtr, after reading
statement in which he declared he fully
realized that as a result OF the Aids
bribery charge his usefulness as a legislator
was at end. handed his resignation to
Lieutenant Governor White. a duplicate
Of which he later filed with the secretary
Of state.
With ashen face and trembling hand he
read while his fellow senators listened
with intense interest and when he had
finished he sent his resignation to the
desk and quickly left the chamber
Mr.. Conger read how at a private con-
ference where the qualifications Of eX-
Senator Aids for the position of repub!i-
can leader OF the senate were being con-
sidered he was asked to declare his posi-
tion and replied that / would not and
could not vote for him"
Conger then related how. later, ex-
Senator Aids, on the floor of the senate
denied the truth of Conger's statements
and demanded an investigation.
so, he added. the alternative was
presented to me of becoming a liar and
thereby remaining a member of this body
in good standing, or speaking the truth
and thereby materially injuring myself
financially, politically and socially and
bringing upon my family undesirable
notorlety and sorrow. l determined that
the only thing I could do and retain my
own self respect was to speak the truth
whatever the cost. That I have done and
forty Of your number by your votes have
certified thereto.
II do not seek to excuse, nor do / ask
you or others to excuse the part which
took in the transaction of 1901 The one
great and sorrowful regret OF my brother
was that he had submitted to the demand
of the worst gang Of punderers that ever
infested this or any other capital My
wrong, and for it 1 have always been
| ashamed, and sincerely sorry was in stand
ing by and permitting the thing to be
done instead of then and there denounc-
ing it.
II am told" he continued, that some
of your number profess to feel that they
cannot remain in the senate If l am
here.
Il have no desire to remain a member of
this executive body If my presence is to
give offense to any of it's members 1
realize, and from the beginning have fully
realized, that with the feeling here as It is,
my usefulness to my district as a member
| Of this legislature is at an end. l cannot
afford the expense of a further hearing
and another trial, and 1 feel that 1 ought
not to impose the expense thereof on the
state. Needed legislation ought not to be
longer delayed, and so am going to volun-
tarily surrender my office"
Senator Cobb's resolution providing for
the appointment Of committee to prepare
charges against Conger are ended by his
resignation.
