WRECKED BY A CYCLONE.
Appalling News Again Comes
From Kansas.
The Thriving City of Welling
ton Laid in Ruins.
Huge Brick Blocks Crushed to the
Earth Like Eggshells.
At Least Fifty People Killed and a
Hundred Injured—Fire Adds
Horror to the Scene of
Destruction.
By the Associated Press.
Kansas City, May ?7.—A special from
Wellington, Kan., says: A cyclone
passed over this place this evening, kill
ing and injuring 600 people. The storm
passed directly through the center of the
town, wrecking everything in its path.
Fire broke oat in the wrecked district,
and is now burning fiercely.
PARTICULARS OF THE DISASTER.
A Journal special from Wellington,
Kan., says: A cyclone tonight ploughed
through the business part of town with
immense destruction to property and
some loss of life; just bow much, is
impossible to tell at this writing. A
heavy storm of wind pieceded the cy
clone about half an hour. A few minutes
after 0 o'clock the cyclone struck the
city, coming from the southwest. Wash
ington avenue, the principal business
street, is lined on both sides for blocks
witn ruins. To add to the horror, fire
broke out among the debris of Oolonel
Robinson's block, and Mrs. Susan Asher
is supposed to have perished in the
flames.
A solid block of brick buildings, con
taining half a dozen stores and printing
offloes, lies in a tumbled heap. Just
across the street a laborer named Fan
ning was taken out of the ruins dead.
It is thought other bodies are in the
pile. T
Hundreds of dwellings were either
totally destroyed or more or leas dam
aged. The city is in darkness, as the
broken mains made it necessary to shut
down the gas works and save destruc
tion from fire.
Hon. James Lawrence, Walter For
sythe and Ed. Forsythe wore danger
ously injured.
Seven bodies have been taken out of
the Phillips house ruins, and a large
force is at work removing the debris.
Two members of the Salvation army
are expected to die from injuries re
ceived.
At Squire Smith's residence, seven
persons are more or less injured.
The streets are littered with tin roof
ing, cloth, awnings and timbers. The
people on the streets are carrying lan
terns, anoHritutterly impossible to get
at the exact facts.
The destruction is simply awful and
every minute adds to the horror of the
situation. The Standard and Mail
offices are wrecked. The opera house
and dozens of the best business build
ings are destroyed. Fine school build
ings and churches are ruined and the
loss will foot up many thousands of dol
lars.
No reports have been received from
other points.
Wellington is the county seat of Sum
ner county, and has a population of
over 10,000 inhabitants. It ia in the
center of a thickly settled agricultural
district.
AWFUL DESTRUCTION. '
A Times special from Wellington,Kan.,
says: The cyclone was terribly destruc
tive. At 11 o'clock fifteen persons are
known to have been killed, and the in
vestigation of the wrecked buildings is
only barely commenced. The cyclone
did not do much damage till it reached
the center of town. On Jefferson avenue
it destroyed the Lutheran church.
Furious work was done within the com-
Eass of the four squares bounded
y Jefferson avenue, Avenue C
and Seventh and Ninth streets.
Every building in those two squares is
demolished and wrecked. Fortunately
the residences in tbat locality were not
numerous, otherwise the loss of life
would have been much greater. The
Phillips hotel was demolished, and
seven dead bodies have been taken from
the ruins. The work of rescue there is
only begun. The house was well filled
with guests, and the loss of life is
thought to be great. The destruction
in the northeast part of the city was
£reat, but definite details cannot now be
ad. Great confusion prevails every
where.
Following is a complete list of the
killed at 2:30 this (Saturday) morning:
Frank D. Campbell, James Hastie,
Leonard Adamson, Ida Jones, Mrs.
Sasber and her sister, Kittie Strahn.
Professor Mayor and Hort Upson are
missing and probably killed.
Lieut. Wm. French and Cadet Samms
of the Salvation army, Mrs. Murphy and
a chijd named Mattie Hodges are badly
injured.
Charles Stoner. Guy Colby, Dick Wea
ver. Carrie Mitchell and Ed. Forsythe
each received injuries more or less seri
ous.
The streets are impassable and noth
ing but ruin exists everywhere.-Atleast
fifteen bodies have already been taken
out of the ruins, and something less
than seventy-five are injured. Men are
working everywhere to rescue the im
prisoned ones. No one now can realize
the extent of the catastrophe, and day
. light will alone reveal the saddest scene
of ruin and desolation ever witnessed in
Southern Kansas.
The Cole & Robinson block ruins took
fire, and strenuous efforts are being
made to rescue the people known to be
buried there.
THE LOSS HALF A MILLION.
St. Louis, May 26.—The Globe-Demo
crat's Wellington special says the loss
by the cyclone will aggregate $500,000.
Two hundred buildings were destroyed.
The house of Squire Smith was levelled
and several members of the household
mangled, probably fatally. The fire at
this hour (3 a. m.) is stilt raging.
TERRIBLE FATALITY.
Wellington, Kan., May 27.—Silva
.and Walter Forsythe, taken out of the
LOS ANGELES HERALD.
ruins of Conrad's restaurant, have since
died. The Grand Army hall has been
converted into a hospital, and there are
now there fifty killed and injured. The
latest estimates are fully thirty dead
and perhaps a hundred more or less in
jured.
BOUNCED THE JURY.
An lowa Federal Judge Creates a Sen
sation.
Dcs Moines, la., May 27.—Judge
Woolson created a sensation in the fed
eral court today by discharging the
twelve jurymen who tried the case of
President John V. Newton of the Dcs
Moines and Kansas City railway. The
defendant, after hearing the verdict in
hie favor, invited the jurymen and attor
neys to an elaborate banquet at a hotel.
Judge Woolson, when he had the jury
before him, reprimanded them severely
and then discharged them. He also
reprimanded Newton and said if he could
he would set the verdict aside and put
him on trial again. The matter has
created a great sensation here. New
ton's trial was hotly fought for ten days.
General Buckland Dead.
Cleveland, May 27.~-Gen. Ralph H.

IS DR. BRIGGS A HERETIC?
THE PBKSBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY SITS
ON HIS CASE.
An Attempt to Send It Back to the New
York Presbytery for a New Trial.
Confession of Faith.
Portland, Ore., May 27.—The Pres
byterian assembly was again constituted
a court today by the moderator. A res
olution was introduced looking to the
return of the Brigga case to the presby
tery of New York for a new trial.
Amendments were offered slightly mod
ifying this action, but with the same
object in view. The parties to the ap
peal were allowed to withdraw in order
to prepare a form of action which would
be mutually acceptable. Pending this
action, the reading of tbe report on the
revision of the confession of faith was
proceeded with.
Just before the closing of the reading
of tbe revision report the parties to the
appeal returned from their consultation,
and revision went over as unfinished
business.
Judge Struvell stated that no agree
ment had been reached, and the mod
erator then ruled that as the committee
of prosecution refuses to agree to the
propositions suggested and to allow the
case to go back at once to New York, tbe
assembly must hear the appeal.
At the afternoon session Dr. Bunch,
for the prosecuting committee, took the
floor and traversed the six grounds of
appeal and tbe twenty-five specifications
thereunder fer an hour.
Immediately thereafter Dr. Briggs was
heard for an boar in rebuttal. His
treatment was historically following the
order of events at the trial in New V ork.
At tbe evening session the report and
recommendations of the revision com
mittee were adopted, and tbe twenty
nine overtures therein proposed were
ordered sent down to the presbyteries
for their action. This ends the question
of revision to far as tbe assembly of '92
is concerned.
United Presbyterians.
Pittsburg, May 27.—1n \he United
Presbyterian general assembly this
morning, the committee on prevalent
evils and means of reforming them
reported at great length on Sabbath
desecration by railways, news
papers, secret societies, murder,
divorce, the social evil, church
lotteries and gambling. The report rec
ommended that the clergy boldly and
openly make themselves acquainted
with these evils in order to be able
effectually to combat them.
It was decided to build a church in
Salt Lake City.
Tbe report on the religious interests of
the army and navy urged congress to
provide an adequate number of chap
lains in the army.
Southern Presbyterians.
Hot Springs, Ark., May 27.—The
morning session of the Southern Presby
terian general assembly was devoted to
the hearing of reports on home and
foreign missions.
At the afternoon session a lengthy
debate took place over the wine ques
tion, the majority report declaring for
fermented grape juice in administering
the Lord's supper, and the minority as
serting that unfermented was the proper
element.
After hours of discussion,the majority
report was adopted.
Southern Methodists.
Westminster, Md., May 27.—The
general conference of tbe Methodist
Episcopal church South adopted a reso
lution favoring the passage by congress
of an amendment preventing states from
passing laws respecting the establish
ment of religion, or tbe use of its prop
erty or credit or money raised by tax
ation for aiding any church, religious
denomination or institution under re
ligions control.
Disastrous Storms.
Brownsville, Ind., May 27.—A disas
trous storm passed through Jackson

of wheat were destroyed by wind and
bail; much fruit was destroyed. J. D.
Johnson and Levi Miller, farm laborers,
were killed by lightning.
Charleston, W. Va., May 27.—A dis

SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 28, 1892.
LONDON CABLE LETTER.
The Political Situation in
Great Britain.
Anxiety About the Dissolution
of Parliament.
A Disposition to Defer the Elections
Till Next Spring.
Strong Opposition to the Proposes! In
ternational Monetary Conference.
The Queen Offers Salisbury
a Dukedom.
By the Associated Press.
London, May 27.—[Copyright; 1892,
by the New York Associated Press.J—
A cabinet council was convened today
for the special purpose of determining
the date of the dissolution of parliament.
Tbe bulk of the Conservative election
agents were of the opinion that it is
urgently necessary to dissolve parlia
ment within a month, as was the case
with the Unionist members. Prior to
the council a number of members bod
an interview with Balfour, and impressed
upon him the necessity of settling the
question without aelay. The almost
unanimous representations made advised
that the dissolution either take place
at the end of June or be post
poned until the spring of '93. Tbe ten
or of the communications made after the
council adjourned, indicates the decision
of the government to proceed with the
Irish local government bill, and tbe
abandonment of the intention to resort
to dissolution. Balfour promised defin
ite declaration on the eve of .the Whit
suntide adjournment. This decision will
enrage the opposition, who, without de
lay, will resort to every device to ob
struct government business, but tbe
majority of the Unionists will approve
it though it will embarrass many.
If Conservative anticipations, lodg
ing from tonight's talk, be fulfilled, no
Gladstone government will be possible
till the end of the spring of '93, and no
home rule till '94, or while Balfour's
local government measure, having a
clear year to operate, must complicate
Gladstone's task in creating a new Irieh
administration.
THE SILVER CONFERENCE.
Reliable authority tells the Associate*!
Press- that Goßchen's acceptance of tjfh
invitation to an international monetary
conference met with adverse CQmme»t
from some of the cabinet members. Jtjpe
opponents hope that certain influences
now being used with the European
government will prevent their tending
delegates. Tbey insist that if - the pro
gramme commits England to anything,
Qotchen should even now withdraw
acceptance. Hfgb financial bouses in
London, Bremen and Vienna oppose the
conference.
REDMOND'S MISSION.
John Redmond, who leaves Sunday
for America, intends to remain enly a
week. He hopes to explain the posi
tion of tbe party to the Irish-Americans,
and refute the cable reports tent by the
enemies of the cause.
A COMMERCIAL CONGRESS.
The proposed programme for a con
gress of the chambers of commerce of
tbe empire will include considerable
protectionist agitation. The proposed
resolutions favor a commercial union
of the empire; tbe establishment
of differential rates between Great Brit
ain and the colonies; preference of
home products against foreign; Great
Britain to grant a discriminating tariff
against grain; an international mone
tary union, with a unification of tbe
currency of the empire. From present
indications the gathering will be the
greatest trade demonstration ever held
in Great Britain.
SALISBURY OFFERED A DUKEDOM.
It is announced that the queen has
offered Salisbury a dukedom in the event
of his retiring from power, but it is
doubtful if the premier will accept the
honor.
Baron De Hirscb's mare Le Fleche is
now the favorite for the derby.
Italian Cabinet Resigned.
Bomb, May 27.—The cabinet has re
signed. The king refused to- accept
their resignations. A-dissolution of the
chamber of deputies is believed to be
imminent.
The resignation is the result of the
narrow margin in the vote of confidence
in the house yesterday. Tbe cabinet
has been in existence only since the 15th
instant.
An Italian Sensation.
Verona, Italy, May 27.—A man named
Marchesini surprised bis wife with a
lover, an army lieutenant, whom he
shot and killed. The parties were in
good position and the affair has created
a sensation.
Stolen Silver.
London, May 27.—Burglars scaled the
foot wall in the near of the store of Map
pin brothers, manufacturers of silver
ware, and carried off 3000 ounces of sil
ver.
The Portuguese Cabinet Resigns.
Lisbon, May 27. —The king has ac
cepted the resignation of the whole cab
inet and charged Ferreira to form an
other cabinet.

Portuguese Ministers Resigned.
Lisbon, Hay 27.—Finance Minister
Martina and Minister of Public Works
Cbanceilleiros have resigned.
Editors at Sacramento,
Sacramento, May 27.—The National
Editorial excursionists arrived hereto
night from Ohico, and are taking a brief
rest. At 2 p. m. they will be taken on
the road for Dutch Flat and other
points of interest in tbe mountains, re
turning here tomorrow night, when they
will disband. The officers were ban
queted here tonight at the Sutter club.
The Swollen Sacramento.
Sacramento, May 27.—The river rose
one inch here today, but fell again,
standing this evening at 26 feet 11
inches. Tbe levees down the river re
main intact, and unless a storm should
come to raiee the river or create waves,
it is likely tbe embankments will hold.
There is some wild talk of parties on the
Yolo side having been shot at while
trying to cnt the levee last night, but it
appears to be more suspicion than oth
erwise.
PONTOONS SUNK.
No Trains Able to Cross the Strait* at
Port Costa.
Pobt Costa, Oal., May 27.—A pon
toon under an apron at Benicia sprung
a leak and filled with water, drawing
the apron down so that the steamer So
lano cannot make her landing. A
wrecking train and pumps have been at .
work all day, but have not yet raised ■
the pontoon. All the Central Pacific :
overland trains have been sent by way
of Stockton and other trains have been
delayed. Tbe pontoon on the Port
Costa side of the straits sprung a leak
and sunk. It is hard to say when trains
will again be able to cross tbe straits.
Benicia, Cat., May 27.—The caisson
under the apron in the slip of the great
ferry steamer Solano sprung a leak,
filled and sunk on Thursday night. It
was impossible to raise it today, and
passengers and baggage are being trans
ferred between here and Port Costa by
means of the ferryboat Solano. No '
trains are running across.
THE MAN FROM MAINE.
j i
BLAINE PEELING GROWING MORI ;
RAMPANT.
The West and Northwest Solid for i
Him—Blame and Estee Is the
Latest Racket. '
New York, May 27.—The Blame feel- '
ing has taken a decidedly bold move- j
ment. Senator Pettigrew of South Da
kota has evidently got his bearings. He
said tonight that he confidently believed
Blame would be nominated on first
ballot; that tbe South Dakota del- j
egation will cast its first vote
for Blame; he would get eighteen
out of forty-eight delegates; four from
North Dakota; half of the Minnesota ,
delegates; five from Nebraska; six from
Montana. California Will go to him
with a rush, and other-states will follow
suit.
J. M. Ashler, of Michigan, a pro
nounced Blame man, said the Pacific
slope should have a place on the ticket,
ana thought Blame and Estee would
sweep the country.
J. Bloat Fassett thought Estee was a
good man, and the Pacific slope ought
to get what it wants; but Estee was not
a soldier, and the candidate for vice
president must be a western man and a
soldier. He thought General Alger was
a very popular man.
4 reporter asked if Fassett was pre
pared <te say Blame would anasiit, the
nomination if he receive4*4M, votes.
Tfeaeett aaio> he did not ask Blame, but
be did not think he would accept under
those circumstances.
,
CALIFORNIA CROPS.
Bountiful Production Promised and High
Prices Predicted.
San Francisco, May 27.—The State
Horticultural society held its regular
monthly meeting today. Reports from
the members concerning the fruit crops
showed a generally fair crop of peaches
in the interior, and light along the caast.
Tbe pear crop in parts, of the northern
belt and in the San Joaquin valley was
reported heavy, but light in other sec
tions. Apricots were reported as being
plentiful, but the crop of cherries,
plums and prunes is light. The grain
crop was reported to be very heavy in
many counties. High prices of fruit for
the coming season were predicted, as
tbe crops in many parts of the country
were injured by the recent storms.
Charges Being Investigated.
Chicago, May 27.—The members of
the executive board of the Farmers'
Mutual Benefit association, the Farmers'
Alliance and Patrons of Husbandry, of
this state, met in secret session here to
day to inquire into the charges of the
National Union company being con
trolled by the National Cordage trust.
The Bed Hirer Flood.
Sbreveport, La., May 27.—The situa
tion in this section is growing more se
rious. Because of the steady rise of tbe
river, a general overflow of the Bed
River valley seems inevitable. Thou
sands of people have been impoverished.
Two more breaks in the levee occurred
today.
A BIG SCHEME.
A Man Who Will Do Universal Adyer
• Using.
The proprietor of a tailor shop at No.
217 South Spring street hr-d an experi
ence with a crank yesterday morning.
A tall man walked rapidly into the shop,
and in a very business-like way asked to
see the proprietor. The clerk showed
him to the proprietor, when he quickly
left a note in his bands and walked out
just as rapidly as he came in, without
giving his name or address. The note
he left read as follows, and it was taken
to the police station to Police Clerk
Bean, who is the favorite with the
cranks these days:
"I can spread your name and business
all over the country and hold it there
forever. Must get help. Will call
about noon tomorrow. Must talk in
private. It is' interesting."
