HURRICANE HITS
NATIONS CAPITAL
STORM LAsHEs BACK AND FORTH
ACROSS WASHINGTON, LEAv-
ING DEATH AND RUIN.
3 KILLED; MANY INJURED
Many Buildings Wrecked and the
Capitol and White House
Damaged.

Wachington.-Like giant f1a1l,' q
cyclonic storm of wind, rain and hail
whipped back and forth across the
nations capital, leaving death and
ruin in it's wake. Three dead, scores
injured and hundreds of thousands OF
dollars worth of property destroyed
was the toll recorded in the hurried
| canvass made when the city aroused
itself from half an hour of helpless
ness in the grasp of the elements.
Out of blazing sky, under which
the city was swelteringl with the tenn
perature at 100 degrees, came the
storm, roaring from the north, driving
mass of clouds that cast mantle
of darkness over the city.
The gale, reaching a velocity of al
most seventy miles an hour, swept
the streets clear, unroofed houses,
tore detached small structures from
their foundations, wrecked one office
building, overturned wagons and car
riages in the streets and swept Wash
ington's hundred parks, tearing huge
branches from trees and even uproot-
ingf sturdy old elms, landmarks of
century.
Washington's well-kept streets, with
their wealth of trees, were Uttered
with broken foliage, roofs, debris and
dead birds, as if playful giant had
carelessly swished his club up and
down the city
AS the wind wreaked havoc, the
rain came, and in five minutes the
temperature dropped from the hun.
cred mark to between 60 and 70. Then
the rain turned to hail and hailstones
battered on roofs and crashed through
sky!ights and windows.
For half an hour the city, covered,
paralyzed, under the beating of the
storm, every activity suspended. Troll
ley cars, street traffic and telephone
service were halted, government de-
partments suspended operations.

Wilson Confers on Mexico,

Observation-Disclosures Wilson,
sumomned from Mexico City to inform
the Washington administration of con-
ditions in the rebellion-torn republic,
talked with President Wilson and Sec
rotary Bryan submitting chiefly a rec
ommendation that the United States
use it's influence to stabilize the Huer-
ia regime. No policy was evolved-at
least none was announced-but it be-
came known that the presidents ideas
and those of Ambassador Wilson's as
to the course to be pursued are
radically different.

Drops Bombs Around warship.

At the Front, Above Guaymas, Mex
ico.-Didier Massen, from his big BIZ
plane, dropped bombs around the gun
boat Tampico, lying in Guymas har-
Dor. Four bombs were dropped, one
striking within few feet of the fad
eral gunboat. This probably gave
rise to the report that the boat had
been struck. The French aviator e,p-
Grated under heavy fire as he circled
over the town and bay, but returned
unframed. The Southern Pacific of
Mexico railway is being operated by
the insurgents as far as San Bias.
