Legislature Has Adjourned Sine Die.
 At noon Saturday, June 10, the Ark ansas legislature stood adjourned sine die. The resolution passed in the house with only five dissenting votes. The senate had previously passed resolution to adjourn on the Sth, and the house resolution was readily con cured in. The resolution to adjourn was offered in the house by Repre- sentative Baker of Independence.
 Another resolution adopted by tho house was one sent over from the senate retaining a number of house and senate officers and clerks for q period of 20 days after adjournment to clear up the work left over after the extra session. The house amend ed the senate resolution so as to in- clude the house expressing clerk

A STORM BRINGS
 DEATH AND RUIN
FIFTEEN KILLED NEAR NEWPORT NEWS, IN PHILADELPHIA,
 5 IN NEW YORK.
Lightning, Wind, Rain and Hail Strike Many Eastern Cities and Cause
 Great Damage.

Newport News.-Sweeping out Of the Southwest with cyclonic velocity, a wind, rain, hail and electrical storm struck the lower end of the Virginia peninsula and left a trail of death and ruin. It is difficult to even esti- mate the number of dead, for many small craft went down in the storm at various points along the James river and in Hampton Roads. Con servative estimates, however, place the dead at not less than 15. None of the bodies has been recovered and nothing is known here of the identity of the missing, as most of them were fishermen from distant counties along the James.
 Great havoc was wrought in this city, houses being unroofed and trees, wires and telegraph poles blown down. Half a dozen vessels moored at piers here broke away and nearly all were damaged. Rough estimates place the property loss and damage at upward oe S100,000.
