Especial to the Appeal
ST. PETERSBURG, July H.
The general strike throughout Russia
began today to take on the proper
ticns of a revolution. At Riga 40,-
900 men left their work while in
many other cities in all parts of the
empire thousands of men have
struck. Armed conflicts throughout
the empire have resulted in the
wounding of many police, cossacks
and strikers. Conflicts between the
cossacks and strikers occurred today
in various parts of the capital and
the rattle of rifle firing was continual.
Sores on each side are known to
have been killed and wounded in the
several engagements.

GREAT
DAMAGE
BY HAIL

Mandan, N. D., June 11.-Half a mil
lion dollars is a conservative estimate
OF the damage in a terrific hail storm
Which swept southwestern North Da-
kota yesterday afternoon. The path
of he storm varied from two to ten
miles. 1t originated neal the Montana.
line and crossed Billings, Hettinger,
Star and Morton counties to Braddock
in Emmons. Winter rye, which was
up from three to four feet and the most
bountiful yield in years, was cut to
pieces and is a. total loss throughout
the district of the storm.
Wheat and corn suffered, but part
will come up again. The estimated loss
on these is about fifty per cent.
Southern Morton county suffered the
greatest share of the loss. New Leip-
zig, Flasher, Brisbane, Thinner and
Gwither all report big damage. Win
doWS in houses and stores were
wrecked. Near Brisbane roofs on barns
were cut to pieces by Jagged pieces of
ice measuring as large as six inches
in diameter. Poultry, sheep, cattle and
horses were killed. The loss is large.
Near Fort Rice the ice was six feet
deep in the ravines. Hail insurance
men estimate hat less than 20 per
cent of the loss is covered by insur-
ance. The hail was preceded by a drop
of thirty degrees in an hour in tenn
p~erature, and was followed by a ter
rife rain storm.

GIBBONS PLAYS With
BROWN; UNABLE TO end IT

Boston. June 11.-Mike Gibbons of
st. Paul won the decision over KNOCK
out Brown of Chicago in a 12-round
bout here Tuesday night. The st. Paul
fighter exercised all the ingenuity of a
clever boxer in an endeavor to
straighten out Brown, but did not sue
coed. K. 0. had al ~impenetrable two
arm cover, and it seemed almost i'm
possible to hit him.
Gibbons forced. the fighting all the
way through the match, but simply
was nable to Ian a blow except on
K. O.'s arms and gloves. The ST. Paul
man, by his leading and vigorous eff
forts to make a real fight out of the
match, was clearly entitled to the de-
cision.
Brown had a great left whip, and
-four or five times during the fight it
looked as though it would do damage
to st. Pauls great middleweight, but
the latter's stiffness saved him.
In defensive work, Gibbons display
ed all the c~leverness that the advance
notices attributed to him. But his in
rather disappointed the big house.
Still, to those who had seen K. o. beat
Bob Moha of Milwaukee, it was not a
surprise for the rugged Greek to ward
off a decisive licking. .>, g
There. was not a real blow struck
daring the match. 1t was simply a
case of showing around for twelve
rounds. There was not a single round
in which one hit the other consecutive

appointed crowd, whistled Marching

Evening Grnin Letter.

Chicago, June 11.-Wheat: Has again
felt the pressure Of hedging sales no
only here but other markets as wei!
there was also considerable short
wheat put out by large local traders
weather conditions have been ideal
rains in northwest where needed and
dry and warm southwest. 1t Is belieV-
ed that export business has been good
although no figures are obtainable'
Foreign news more favorable with
rains reported in southwest Russia. We
still advise sales of wheat on all raj
lies.
Corn-Today has had a good break
on reports of rain in Missouri. Local
longs dumped their corn while shorts
were pressing their advantage and
adding to their lines. Support was
rather poor at times, trade believing
tina a reaction was due after the re-
cent large advance. On the recession
good commission house buying devel-
oped. Cash markets here and south
west easier.
Oats-Were easier with corn. Re-
ports of rains in central Missouri
started some selling by pit crowd
which was followed by profit taking on
the. part of commission houses. Sales
of July oats pressing on market seem
ed to come from an important source
We still advise purchase of September
oats on all recessions.
