A HAIL AND RAIN
TUESDAY EVENING
Crops in This Vicinity are Dam
aged BY the Hail-storm.-A
Fierce One-some
Insurance.

The hail storm which pelted this
section late Tuesday afternoon
seems to have been strictly local
in extent, and while it was the
fiercest ever experienced here,
the resultant damage was suppOs-
ed from first reports to have been
light. But later returns put anoth-
er face on the thing. While the
major part OF the heavy cloud
from which the hail came swung
from Cottonwood butte in nearly
an easterly direction over the
prairie, the northern> edge Of it
covered this section and with a
terrific gale Of wind and rain
opened with hail Just west of
town sweeping through the city in
a northeasterly course some six
miles, playing more or less h0rae
with the fall grain fields in its
path.
C. W. Booth, whose ranch adj
joins this city on the west, re-
ports the almost total loss Of 90
acres Of fine fall wheat, with no
insurance.
John Stellmon, whose ranch is
2i5 miles northeast Of town, had
100 acres Of fall wheat totally de-
stroyed except for stock pasture.
and also had go acres of alfalfa
badly cut up. Two windows in his
fine residence were broken by the
hail. He had no hail insurance.
+. Nelson, northeast of the
Stellmon ranch, reports 40 acres
of fall grain ruined with no IN
suranee.
". L. Lyon, still further north
east, was heavy loser, but car
ried some insurance.
Robert Fredericks0n, on the
Tom Gray place, also reports ex-
tensive damage to his crop, as do
Geo. Hines and Fred and Joe
Rainville. of the same neighbor-
hood.
Jacob flnk, y. b. Miller, 1ne0-
1ore Brasch, Mark Harding and
Milan Cook were also hit by the
storm and report extensive dam
age.
The later reports indicate that
well advanced spring grain in that
section suffered considerably. The
total loss viii run into many
thousands of dollars. This was
he first damaging hail that ever
struck Mr.. Booths place as well
is others who were included in
he path Of Tuesday 5 storm.
G. H. Klimfelter, Of Spokane.
superintendent Of the Hartford
company, is here adjusting the
osses in which his company ear

Washington, June 2S.-An im-
mediate break between the Unit
ed States and the de facto govern
ment has been averted by COM
pliance with the American de-
mand for release of the % negro
troopers captured in the fight at
Carrizal
While it is generally conceded
that this move lessons tension
and makes the crisis less immi-
nent no one eonverSant with the
grave problem is losing sight of
the fact that the all-important
question of Carranza s attitude
toward the American expedition
across the border to protect the
territory and citizens Of the Unit
cd States from bandit Outrages,
remains unsettled.
The preparations of the United
States for war viii 90 steadily
forward. There will be no inter-
ruption of the rush of National
