Portland Hatton
Hailstorm Covered
300 Square Miles

Portland, N. D., Aug. 4.-About
300 square miles, an area 20 miles
long and fifteen miles wide, was
swept almost clean Of crops by hail
last night. The district covered
lies west, north and east of Port
land, this city lying near the
southwest corner of the storm belt.
Hatton also was within the storm
area. Nearly 100000 acres were
were hit by the hah.
Hail fell in tremendous quanti-
ties, and the storm is defined as
"the worst in IS years" Hail
stones about the size of fiIberts,
fell in remarkable number, cover
ing the ground, while hailstones
were picked up measuring as much
as eight inches in circumference
those, of course being the excep-
ton.
Heavy wind accompanied the
hail, knocking out windows and
doing great of damage to build
ines generally. There was no loss
Of life or injury, so far as reported.
The Anderson barn in this city
was hit by lightning and burned
during the worst of the storm.

$500, Loss In
Crookston District.

Crookston, Mimi, Aug. 4.-Windows
smashed, awnings ruined, trees broken
off, silos wrecked, crops destroyed and
roads blocked with debris, are some
results of a terrific rain and wind
storm of last night.
Great Northern train No. s struck
barn blown from the state farm onto
the track, but the engine was stopped
in time to prevent damage, but the
train was delayed over an hour. The
smokestack of an elevator was blown
against an electric light wire, which
charged the metal covering on the
elevator making it impossible to get
inside to fight fire started from light
ming.
The deluge quenched the fire. Coun-
try districts report numerous silos
wrecked and standing grain driven in
| to the ground, with little prospect that
| it will recover.
The damage in this county, is con-
servatively estimated at 100000.

Entire Northwestern
District Steam Rollered.

Crookston, Mimi, Aug. 4.-Present-
ing the appearance Of having been
pressed under a huge steam roller,
crops throughout northwestern Min
nesota have been hit the hardest blow
evervisited uAon the district.
Estimates this afternoon place the
loss in crops at $5,000,000. From the
Canadian boundary to a point south
Of Crookston, and from the Red river
to a point 70 to 80 miles east, reports
today bring in the same story of
ruin.
Some Of the grain may recover, but
the fact that so much of the wheat
was rusted or blighted, leaving it
with little or no recuperative quah-
ties, reduces to minimum the hope
that much OF the damage will be over
come.
At Thief River Falls carnival
company's shows were wrecked.
In Crookston three barns and two
dining halls at the fair grounds were
completely wrecked.
Red Lake Falls reports many small
buildings damaged, windows being
blown out. etc.
South of Crookston the storm seems
to have passed without doing dam

CARRANZA
REPLIES
TO NOTE

Washington, Aug. 4.-Eliseo Are
dondo, the Mexican ambassador desig-
nate delivered a note to the state de-
partment, replying to the last Ameri-
can communication to the de facto
government. It announces the appoint
ment Of three Mexican members Of a
joint commission to undertake the
settlement Of border differences. Ar
redondo is authorized to treat with
the Washington government regard
ing the place and date for the commits
sioners to meet.
Carranza apparently rejects the
proposal that the commission consider
other questions than the military sit
uation and limits the discussions to
the subjects originally proposed by
Carranza-the withdrawal Of Ameri-
can troops and the formulation of a
protocol to over future crossings of
troops into either country.

wonder why the blind piggcrs are so
