The Town of Galva Visited by a Young Cyclone. Heavy Rains and High WlsfcM Play H ivof in the t'lty and at Many Other Flares One Killed and Several Injured at dialva. T lis city was visited last night by one of the seversest storms of wind, rain and hail that has been seen here for some tim . Shortly after 6 o'clock last evening- dark ominous looking clouds over spr ad the horizon that caused no little con -ternation about the city . The storm kiajr was not long in mustering her forces and in a few minutes the temperature be can e perceptibly lower, a strong; wind can e up and with it driving sheets of blii ding rain. For a few moments pre ced ng the rain the wind blew a terrific gali;, fenceB, awnings and signs were blown down and trees bent and uprooted. A sign over Davidson's restaurant blew down striking the large plate-lass win dow below and bteaking it in, another at the Crown restaurant next door swung log': and whs just prevented by some by stander from swinging against the windows. At Bamberger's clothing store a iarge plate-glass that had been pre viously cracked was blown in by the gale and a portion of the bill boards at the corner of Twentieth street and Second ayi nue were blown down. The torrent of water that fell filled numerous cellars in different parts of the city and flooded ditches and sidewalks so that it was al mc st impossible to move along the streets after the rain. To make matters worse tb smoke stack of the electric light station in Moline was blown down ana Um entire city circuit of electric lights, besides those in a large number of busi ness houses were extinguished, leaving lh greater part of the city ii. almost total da kness. This together with the flooded co ldnion of the walks made it decidedly unpleasant for pedestrians. The storm was a yery severe 6train on th' syndicate electric lines on nccount of its being so intensely electrified, and would undoubtedly have resulted more se-iously had it not been for the prompt ness and efficiency of Electrical En gi leer Fredericks, who was out from the time th : storm came on until morning. H i had all the currents switched off as Hi ickly as possible, but nevertheless, the sfain on the short circuit in the station w is so .reat that a crank disc on one o: the new Ideal engines whs broken so tl st the latter was disabled, It was mcessary to send a part of it to Spring fit Id for repairs, and in the meantime tie Company was obliged tn cut out The Davis Company's power for the Mos line Central lite and all their other Dovei service, wtich will not be running arain until the engine is repaired. Another of the freaks of the wind last n ght was the breakirg ofl of the trunk o a tree 10 inches in diameter in Fred Hiss' yard on First avenue. In South Rock Island there was consid erable minor damages by wind and hail, tl e most serious of which was that at the 0 lippianock nursery owned by Henry G-ietbje. Nearly 8(10 panes of glass in his hot housc3 were broken by the hail and a large number of plants and dowers destroyed. The houses were completely f! ioded with water, which will be a great inconvenience to Mr. Oaethje in destroy ing beds, etc. The loss will not be less tl an $2(H) besides the inconvenience that hi' is put to. At Milan the storm did considerable di.mage also in the way of leveling fences, etc., trees being blown down but nothing was seriously damaged . About a mile and a half south of Milan the storm again dis p ayed a greater force approaching almost t( a cyclone. It came from west to east aid covered a path about a half mile wide. Barns and outhouses were blown d iwn and fences and sheds were leyeled to the ground. On the farm of John liet ig considerable damage was done. Eis house was unroofed and his barn ard si me outhouses were almost completely d :molished. Jacob Simmons' barn in the some locality was also demolished and hivoc was played bv the wind on the p-emises of Henry Bastian and others. So injury has yet been reported to any o le in that vicinity. The storm was the most serious at Galva of any place in this vicinity. It s'ruck there the fiercest at 8:10 and laBted b it a few minutes, but in that brief space n any hundreds of dollars worth of dam a ;e was done. The wind struck the northwest end of t) e R. I. & P. depot and demolished a p irtion of the building. Two churches and an elevator were more or less dam a red. The Mulford Steam Heating works a id the Hayes wind mill building were b idly damaged and a large number of dwellings were blown down. The C, B. &. Q round house, a frame building with four stalls was also completely derr oi ls bed. Several persons were injured and o le died from the effects of injuries re ceived. The path of the storm was through the center of the town, which is n w said to present a desolated appear a ice. At Alpha there was also a hard b ow but no serious damage was done. The storm was general all over the 'ate. THE PROSPEROUS PEORIA. The Annnal M etiuic of the Ntook. ho i.eis of the R. I A P.-Dirertnr and Offirers Eire ted. The R, L & P. held its annual meeting this morning at the company's offices in the Peoria building, 11,860 shares out of 15,000 total being represented either bv person or proxy. The following direc tors were elected to succeed themselves: R. R. Cable, George W. Cable and H. B. Sudlow, and the following officers were re-elected for the ensuing year: President R. R. Cable. Vice-President A. Kimball. Secretary and Treasurer H R RimI. low. Executive Committee R. R. Cable, Thomas F. Withrow, and H. B. Bndlow. ,,The annual report for the year showed; earning?, $764 395 16; expenses. S496.- 531.37: net earnings, .$267,863.79; paid in dividends, f75.O00; surplus, $57(1.071.72; earnings per mile of road, $6 764 56; operating expenses per mile, $3,152 25; per cent earning to operating, $52 58; per cent operating to earning. $47.42.

The road is one of the most prosperous and popular in the country for its size, all of which is highly creditable to its ef ficient superintendent, Mr. Sudlow who has charge of the active management. City 'oun-il Cleanings. At the cuuncil meeting last evening Mayor McConochie on motion to that effect, appointed Aid. Eanj, Corken and Kennedy to confer with Hon. W. H. Gesl relative to his alleged damages, in con nection with the Second avenue paving improvement. The city ought to force the gentleman who has demanded pay of the city for improvements made to his property, to show by the proceedings enttred by himself, that he has ground for any action whatever before proposing a compromise. Relative to the fire department, the coun cil adopted the report of Chairman Corken of the fire and light committee adverse to the purchase of the apperatus, of the CaVle and Phoenix companies, Aid. Corken taking the view that the city should purchase new outfits throughout in extending the paid fire department. The matter of th" fire and police alarm system was, after discuasion, laid over for a time, the company through its agent Mr. Rolfe promising to remedy defects in the meantime. The system has not proven a success, and Aids. Cork-u and Knox of the fire and light committee are right in their position that if the company fails to make the systim what it was promised to be it should be taken out. Win Hi and r.r Ke-rleetiaa.

The republican congressional com mittee met at the efflce tt City At torney J. L. Haas this morning to Let upon the date of the congressional con vention which Chairman Haas last May called in this city July 7. The commit tee decided to change the time of the convention to August 17. and the place to Bushnell. The basis of representation was fixed at one delegate for every 175 votes for Harrison instead of one for every 200. thus in creasing the number of delegates from 98 to ISO, The action of the committee is a direct slap at Chairman Haas, who, ia the interest of Gest, called the meetinc early in July and ignored the lower end of the district entirely; and the commit tee also ignored the Union's desire for an eirly convention. The committee is evi dently badly rattled, and mav be looked upon to meet again between this and August 17 an J decide to have no conven tion at all.
