The men were working for Thomas Phelan, a sub-contractor, digging a trench for a water main. Without any warning, in the midst of their work, a mass of earth came down upon them.

ELEVEN DEAD AT WINONA. Appalling News from Points in Mis- souri, Kansas an@ the Indian Territory. Reports,of devastating storms during the past three days come from points covering a large territory and show that the entire eastern watershed of the Rocky Mountains, from the Nebraska and Iowa lines to Texas, were swept by wind and rain. Friday night the severest blow came. Reports of, loss of life and destruction of property came with every telegram to the Post-Dis- patch, and the downpour, first regarded as a blessing, grew into a wave of devastation. ‘Fields of grain that promised the most bountiful yield in many years were swept bare of vegetation, In several instances the seas of rain were abetted in their work of destruction by tornadoes. It is too early yet to sum up the loss, but the total is ap- falling, and those to whom the angry ele- ments spared life have little left to sustain it. The stories of storm are so similar that a statistical summary is all there is left to tell. The storm focus embraced an area of 200 square miles, with the southwestern corner of Missouri as the center. The greatest loss of life is reported from Winona, Mo., where eleven corpses have been found, with as many more missing. At Baxter Springs, in Southwestern Kan- sas, five were killed and eleven seriously injured by a cyclone that accompanied the storm. ‘i One person was drowned at Columbus and two at Ottawa, Kan. a At Van Huren, Ark., a mother and her babe were drowned. A family of five was encamped on the bank of Fish Creek in the Indian Territory. Nothing of them or their belongings was found, except a part of their wagon en a” pile of driftwood. : At Thomasville, Mo., where the rainfall was four inches in one hour, five persons were lost. Unconfirmed reports are re- ceived of loss of life as follows: Three at Fayetteville, Ark., 1 at Paola, Kan., I at Richards, Kan., and 6 of a hunt- ing party in the Indian Territory. This gives a known and probable loss of forty- three lives. This total will be tncreased when the re- ceding water permits a thorough search. The loss in property can be placed in the millions. Dwellings, fences and farm build- ings were carried off and highway and rail- road bridges swept away. Thirty of the eighty buijdings in Winona’ succumbed. Five residences,’ a church and a ware- house went down at, Baxter Springs. Six bridges went out in Russell County, Kan. About Jefferson City, Mo., many square miles of grain were destroyed. Traffic on the Fort Scott & Memphis Rallroad is temporarily suspended. Reports of damage to property other than above noted come from five points in Kan- sas, nine in Missouri, six in Arkansas and. two in the Indian Territory. The storm spent itself in Illinois, but having lost its force, proved a blessing to crops. 5 The above summartes are only a ftac- on of the loss in property. The greatest burden falls upon the f rs, as the sea- son ig too far spent to t new crops, and suffering will surely follow in the storm’s wake. The country’s granary has been cleaned out. Details of individual suf- fering and experiences would fill volumes ane reset the horrors of the Johnstown sas ter. 1 IN MISSOURI.

RIPPER OF LINGERIE, And Judge Stevenson Put $25 Down en the Docket. Mrs. Shepherd of 931 North Tenth street appeared in the Second District Police Court Monday accompanied by a small boy and a large sheet filled with clothes, which looked like a week's washing. Her husband, Bud, was accused of disturbing the ce. Bud wanted the court to give him hours to leave town without going into the merits of the case. This prejudiced his standing from the start and Judge Stev- enson wanted to hear evidence. The bundle contained the testimony. It appeared that Bud disturbed the peace or pieces of his wife's ang, rather than that of her person. He was drunk and ugly and tore her close into shreds. Mrs. Shep- herd saved the pieces to show to the Court. When she pulled out sundry garments kept sacred from the vulgar gaze when worn Judge Stevenson blushed and was 80 em- bar. assed that he hurriedly closed the case by fining Bud, the lingerie ripper, $25.

She is probably five.feet in height, of de- cided brunette type, with black hair, which she dresses in the latest style, dark but clear complexion, well-rounded form and rather small hands and feet. Her face does not bear the impress of $100,000 worth of pain and anguish, and she looks like a woman who could, upon occasion, become light-hearted and gay. She is probably 38, but — 7 looks that old. On nearly all leading questions this woman who says Col. MacDonald wanted her to be his wife interposed in a mild ‘“‘You will have to excuse me,” but little by little she told the story of her loving too well but not wisely. “I wish to positively deny every assertion Col. MacDonald has made against me. He has gone to extremes to blacken my character and some of his statements are not only ridiculous; they are not worthy of the man. “He claims to have letters from me in which vile language was used. I wrote very few letters to him, and if he says that language unbecoming a lady was used in any of them he tells a falsehood; if he dis- lays any letters in which such language — used they are forgeries. They are not mine. I never wrote such letters. I can see now that he will not stop at anything to ruin me. He threatened to do it and now he is beginning to carry his threats into exe- cution. He told me he had bought off the newspapers, and Heaven knows I wish he had. 0 THRRATS TO PREVENT SUIT. “When my lewyers took the case Col. MacDonald made all kinds of threats in the hope that that would deter me from bring- ing suit, but he has heaped every indignity upon me that it is possible for him to and now he will be held to account. Iam a proud woman and have done R in my power to keep up appearances. This is a painful subject for me to discuss and my heart fairly bleeds when I think of what have suffered at his hands. „We became acquainted in 1881 after the death of ory husband, and our intimacy began July Ii of that year. He neve? made his home at my house, but supported me till the time of our final quarrel in 1891. He was with me a great deal during that time and there was no occasion for me to write letters to him. He was a queer man in many ways, but I cannot sp of the cause of our last quarrel, or what led h break off his promise to marry m would necessitate gong into details, that I a care to do until the case comes. to trial. „It is true that I began to have my wed- ding trousseau made and was making all reparations to be married when he asked or a postponement.

During the years of our engagement I never paid the least attention to other men; never so much as shook hands with one, and 1 gave up friends and everything for him. HAS ALL THE PROOF. Col. MacDonald denies that he ever made a proposal of marriage to me, but I have his letters and all the necessary proof of that. They are in possession of Mr. aGresche, my awyer. He also says I came up behind him at the Fair Grounds about four years when he was in company with two ladies and struck him in the back. That statement is made out of whole cloth.

CALLED ON HIS BEST GIRL. And Wiped Up the Back Yard With Her Step-Father. Frank Jordan of #11 North Broadway called on his “best girl,” Tillie Lobin of 3134 Lasalle street, Sunday evening. She is glad that he did for more reasons than one, as she claims his presence saved her from a beating and much vile abuse at the hands of her step-father, Fred Zimmerle. Sunday night, while seated with her lover on the back porch, her step-father came out of the house, and, she says, called her the vilest names and threatened to beat her, at the same time he ordered Jordan away. Instead of obeying Jordan is said to have grabbed Zimmerle by the back of the neck and literally wiped up the ground with him. Zimmerle had Jordan arrested, but as the former failed to appear in. the First District Police Court onday, the case was continued until July 9. Miss Lobin was on hand bright and early to testify in behalf of her protector. DENNIS GOBS 70 THE PILE He Will Break * for a Time for the ity.

At the next meeting of the committee it was said Tom Barrett was to be ent with a proxy. He was to move at the committee adjourn sine die, if enough votes could be secured to ca ita new o tion was to be form on a plan to be adopted hereafter. Col. Overall and Mr. Wells both said that they had heard no talk of the kind recently, and the whole matter was news to them. They had attended no meeting at which the question was discussed, and any rumor con- necting them with it was unfounded. Mr. Bannerman said he had heard some talk of A reorganization of the commit but he knew of no recent movement of the kind ted. Hugh Brady, Chairman of the City Com- mittee, said that he knew of no movement of the kind. He did not take much stock in the rumor. REQUIRED A SOLOMON.

R. may enter the church 8 their uniforms and insignia when attending nerals and conduct these In accord with their rituals in Catholic cemeteries. The rule prohibiting such attendance has never been uniform among the Catholic clergy, and — — ‘s decision removes all further difficulty. The Arch- bishop came to this conclusion after per- using a copy of the G. A. R. burial service. F. L. Webster, a member of Ransom Post, brought matters to a focus by presenting the matter to his grace for adjustment. Controversies on this subject have been frequent within the past years, and many a funeral procession has n blocked by some priest, who would not allow the cor- tege to enter the church or cemetery wear- ing the uniform of the order upén the plea that it was an infraction of the rules and principles of the Catholic ‘Church.

The opera was presented in attractive style, and the different mu- sical numbers were exceptionally well ren- dered. The honors of the evening were shared by Miss Helen Bertram as Zerlina, William uette ag Fra Diavolo and Jerry Sykes and Frank Déshon in their robber roles. Miss Bertram was in excellent voice. She acted with more than usual grace and vivacity, and gave the character a strong in- terpretation. Pruette made a great brig- and, and met with warm applause for sev- eral of his songs. Jerry Sykes and Frank Deshon kept the audience in good humor in their funny banditti machinations. Their duets took the house. At the end of the last act Pruette and Sykes were ‘compelled to respond to curtain call. Their work was highly commended. The provisions made by Manager McNeary for the protec- tion of patrons in stormy weather are evi- dently appreciated, for the attendance on rainy nights is largely increased over any previous year. : Change of bill at the Roof Garden begins to-night.

DUTYES OF CITIZENSHIP. 9 Every One Should Become American- ized, Says De. W. W. King. In his sermon on “The Duties and Privi- leges of Citisenship.“ Rev. Dr. Wirt King, goatee of the Lindell Avenue Methodist- piscopal Church, yesterday morning, laid down salient ints which should govern all men as relations to their country and home. The duties are suggested by the privileges and by the dangers which lft their menacing heads along the rim of the national horizon. To become Ameri is the first duty of everyone, he said. ig unwillingness on the part of foreigners to become American- ized, the doctor said, has given rise to such factors in politics as the Irish vote, the German vote and the Catholic vote. The principles of Christianity should also be defended by American citizens. The spirit of communism and socialism should be throttled, and the fight against the saloon, the greatest enemy to personal liberty, carried on with alacrity. ALTON NEWS.

As an index of how the people feel on this subject, we invite the attention of the members of the Board to the following resolution, which was adopted in the Mis- souri House of Representatives on Feb. 21, 1893, by a vote of 85 ayes to 22 noes: The railroad property of this State being assessed at less than 5 per cent of its actual value, while farming property is assessed at over # per cent of its value; therefore, : Resolved, That the State Board of Equal- ization are hereby directed to increase the late of taxation of railroad property until such property shall bear its equitable share of the burdens of taxation. The House was at that time strongly Democratic and the resolution was adopt- ed by a majority of Democratic votes. In January, 1895, the House being then Republican, a resolution was adopted by an almost unanimous vote demanding an increase of the taxable wealth of the railroads until railroad property shall bear its equitable share of taxation.“ There can be no doubt that this de- mand, put forward by two different Houses of Representatives, expresses the wish and will of the people. The Post-Dispatch has shown from tbe figures submitted to the Railroad Com- ‘mission by the railroads themselves that their property is not assessed at an equitable ratio with other property. The farm property of Missouri, for example, is assessed at about one-third of its actual value. It is a high estimate to place the present valuation of railroad property at one-quarter of its real value. Another fact which the State Board of Equalization can legitimately consider is the railroad lobby and its relation to legislation, nominating conventions and the like. Any interest that can and does maintain a regular salaried lobby at Jefferson City can afford to pay more taxes. If it did not have more money than it requires for the legitimate pur- poses of railroad business, the lobby would not be there. It is better that this surplus money ‘should go into the State and County treasuries than into the pockets of the lobbyists and their legis- lative ‘‘cattle.” * no — * 1 WEGLECTED STREET IMPROVEMENTS.

Its total adver- tising was 72 cotumns, as compared with 49 columns in the corresponding Sunday a year ago, a gain of 47 per cent. Of reading matter the Sunday Post-Dispatch had 181 columns: the Sunday Globe- Democrat 161 columns; the Sunday Re- public 167 columns.

The Interstate Drill at the Fair Grounds which closed yesterday with the distribution of prizea to the winning companies was a brilliant success in every way. There was not a jar in the orderly execution of an excellent programme. No incident occurred te mar the har- mony of the week. Saturday's rain was the only drawback to a perfect week and that is one t the incidents of camp life in either peace or war of which well- trained soldier boys never complain. The citizens’ committee and the Fair Grounds management are to be congrat- ulated upon the perfection of the arrange- ments for the camp and the entertain- ment of the visitors. Special commenda- tion is due the ladies whose taste, skill and energy made the camp notable for brilliance on the social side of the pro- gramme. It is natural that St. Loutsans should feel jubilant Over the success of the Branch Guards in winning the first in- fantry prize, and over the other successes of our home militiamen. But the prizes were fairly won in a contest that was creditable to all concerned. All of the contestants acquitted themselves ad- mirably. St. Louis has shown that she has the place, the will, the energy and resources to offer unsurpassed advantages for in- terstate militia drills. We feel sure of a unanimous vote of first honors for St. Louis as an encampment city. ORGANIZATION A NECESSITY. The conference of Democratic editors of Missouri who favor free silver coinage, which was held in Sedalia last week, called another conference for the 23d of this month to perfect an organization and to take further steps to give practical effect in the party councils to the free silver sentiment among Democrats. The adjourned conference should be attended by every Democratic editor in the State in sympathy with its objects. It is not sufficient to gain the object of the free silver Democrats of Missouri that nine-tenths of the voters of the party favor that object. Mere numbers do not assure victory in party action. There must be organization and p tical work to give effect to the sentiment of the majority. The fact that the party machine in the State is in control of the opponents of free silver and that the Federal patron- age is at their disposal make it neces- sary for the free silver men to organize for work. The further fact that their opponents have started a movement to effect a thorough organigation increases this necessity. The editors are the leaders and mold- ers of public opinion. Their influence in the councils of the party and among the voters is potent. They should set an example of organization and yigorous work which will stimulate the rank and file to give effective support to the cause. ͤ—E40—d— — — ANOTHER JAPANESE BLUNDER. The recall 6f Lieut. O’Brien, United States military attache at Peking, brings to light unexpected official confirmation of the accounts of the Port Arthur atroc- ities which were published in the Post- Dispatch and the World. Lieut. O’Brien was attached to the Japanese army during the war and was a witness of the conduct of that army at Port Arthur and elsewhere, In a letter to Minister Dun he describes what he saw, and his testimony corroborates in every particular the account of the mas- sacre perpetrated there by the Japs which Mr. Creelman sent the Post-Dispatch and World. If any exoneration of the charge of sensation-making brought against our war correspondent were needed this evidence of an unprejudiced army officer would furnish it. recall is due to the sensitiveness of Japan on the subject of these atrocities. Japan resents the official confirmationof her dis- grace, and, it is reported, has intimated that she is not pleased with Lieut. O’Brien and would regard his recall as a favor. This attitude of Japan towards Lieut. O’Brien emphasizes the blunder the Japanese Government made in failing to follow up the strong words of regret ut- tered by Viscount Mutsu with the pun- ishment of all who were responsible for the Port Arthur outrages. The govern- ment lost the opportunity of rehabilitat- ing itself in the esteem of civilized na- tions by a vigorous repudiation of un- civilized methods of warfare. Its resent- ment of references to the atrocities now merely deepens the stain which its prac- | tical indorsement of the atrocities fixed on the national honor. 6 OO —— CT The Miami News calls Mr. Zeveley’s attention to the fact that “every one of the thirteen counties in the Eighth Dis- trict have declared for free silver at 16 to 1; for an early State convention; and | also for the resignation of veley should — continue to y . 1 > * ap r =) n Sef 3 has ‘ > 5 a ieee: 2 * ** a oriminal neglect of he | @iey It is understood that Lieut.

The Germans ap- pear to be the best patrons of this insti- tution. With the completion of the fire- proof columbarium, incineration may be- come more popular. If tt is true that Secretary Lamont came West to lear what Mr. Cleveland's chances for a third term are, he has doubtless become fully informed by this time. Indeed. the West would be only too glad to let Mr. Cleveland off right now if it could be arranged. Of course there had to be a syndicate to take advantage of the Japanese war to increase the already increased price of camphor. Human greed invades the sick room, the cemetery, or any other place where there seems to be a dollar in sight. = The reverence shown the statue of Sunset Cox by persons supposing it to be the figure ot a saint is an evidence of how much better a politician may appear in bronze and marble than in his own flesh. If every one of the 114 counties of Mis- souri were to promptly declare for silver, there would still be schemes to prevent the calling of a convention. The mono- metallists have no sense of fairness. —,, unn. .. = un.

The only question in the mind of Mr. Maf- fitt concerning Mr. Farris is one of apostolic succession, From the Arrow Rock Statesman. It ie farcical and looks like trifling with the patience and temper of the Democratic masses to call the County Committees to- gether again to satisfy the last demand of Chairman Maffitt. But all the same let ft be done. Let us do every possible thing that may be asked, whether in reason or out of reason, to the end that we may prove the capacity of Democrats to control the Democratic party. After all that has been said and done, our view is that a convention has become necessary and inevitable, and the more the opponents try to prevent the greater will be the force and power of popu- lar judgment upon the burning issue when it finally gains expression. There is no real humiliation in submitting to unreason- able requirements when we know they are made only to worry us into submis- sion to the arbitrary will of would-be bosses, From the Springfield Democrat. Altogether the Democrats of eighty-one counties in the State have expressed their ish for a State Convention. This is mom than two-thirds df the whole number of peounties. Fifty-three counties have com- municated their wishes to the Secretary of the Conference of County Chairmen held at the Planters’ House in St. Louis some days ago, and twenty-eight other counties have expressed the same wish through their county committees or conventions. still the Chairman of the State Committee pro- fesses tgnorance of what the party wants. He is taxing the patience of even patient men to the utmost. From the Parts Mercury. The Democrats throughout the State are making it red-hot for Mr. Maffitt of St. Louis.Mr, Maffitt does not want to give the people a chance to hold a convention, while the people are determined to hold one. From the St. Francois Herald, Chairman Maffitt of the State Democratic Committee still disregards the demands of his party by refusing to call a State conven- tion. When ＋ * J. W. Farris of Leba- non presented him a call signed by sixty- two County Chairmen, Mr. Maffitt dodged the issue by saying that he would act when “officially” notified. No doubt he has been surprised at the rapid rate he has received these “official” requests. A majority of the County Chairmen and County Committees have sent him de- mands for a convention, but he has not yet called the State Committee together” Con- ventions are being held throughout the State and requests fer the convention are daily pouring in upon Mr. Maffitt. It is safe to say that an overwhelming ma- jority of the Democracy are in favor of the convention and nearly two-thirds of the nties have taken some kind of action to it.

Besides its — — in the present conection, it is interesting, as the written testimony of an e-witness of what took place at Port Ar- thur on the occasion &bout which so much has been said in press telegrams of Japan- ese cruelty. The letter is dated December 2. It reads in part: “As to the unfortunate circumstances at Port Arthur I can only speak of what I saw, of cou but I am sorry to say that that little is such as to lay the army open the most severe censure. I have seen a number of cases of the killing of men who not only could have been made prisoners, without difficulty, but who were plainly unarmed and in a position of humble sur- render. I have so seen a number of bodies whose hands were tied behind their backs. Also bodies v much mutilated and having wounds that indicated that they were killed with the bayonet when beyond question there was no resistance. I have seen these and other horrors, not by going where they were to be seen, but in the or- dinary course of my observations of the battle while going to the forts and main points of interest. I saw no new acts of war on the Ad and 23d (November), except the looting of houses and stores. That reat, on until there was nothing left to oot. The letter goes on to assign as a reason for the Japanese atrocities that the army had expected ter resistance than it met; that with such an idea the troop began to clear the way by force and that control over them was lost. The remark is made: 1 do not think this excuse sufficient. Such acts have always met with cerBure and so must this case. IAeut.

Will Not Close His Restaurant on the Century Building Site. Robert H. Klix is a restaurant keeper who claims he is far sighted regarding the value of real estate. Two years ago he se- cured the southwest corner of Ninth and Locust streets, a valuable leasehold, for three years for a song. His leasehold is a part of thé site of the new million dollar Century” Building, and when he was re- quested to vacate he indignantly refused.

POPULISTS ARE WAITING. Will Not Calla Silver Convention at Present. J. B. Follett, a member of the Populist State Committee, says that the reports that have been telegraphed throughout the coun- try that the leaders of the * will soon issue a call for a People’s Free Silver Con- vention, to be held in St. Louis, are, so far as he knows, incorrect. There was some talk of that sort previous to the Memphis Convention,” said Mr. Fol- lett, but I do not think the leaders have any idea of calling a convention now. The Populists are waiting. They want to see what the Democrats are going to do. If they should come out and declare unequiv- ocally for free silver it would no doubt have considerable effect on the action of the Populists. If they are controlled by the National Administration and adopt fts pol- icy they will be wrecked beyond redem tion. e Populists are watching the fight in the Democratic party with great interest, and I haven’t any idea that they will do anything until they see how things are drifting. If there is any movement on foot for a convention of the kind indicated in some of the dispatches, I have heard noth- ing of it.“ ON A WEARISOME TRAMP, and His Family Walking to Indian Territory.

McCourt, a private watchman, was arraigned hefore Judge Peabody charged with brutally beating George Ernst, 12 years old, of 2929 Chouteau avenue. The boy testi- fied that he met McCourt Sunday morning at Pine and Garrison avenue. The latter was under the influence of liquor, and with- out provocation struck him twice across the back with a billy. Ernst reported the mat- ter to the police and McCourt was &rrested.

This man he claims is trying to get the beat back and is doing everything in his power to injure him. T00 OLD TO FINE. So Judge Peabody Gave Them Hours to Leave Town. For equalled. Try it.
