BRIDGE GOES DOWN, AND LETS THE TRAIN INTO THE RIVER. Trj Waslss m a of Dnjnw, Ind, Pea Ujq by Win Cholera at loerdh a Drs-dfal DMd of a Maalao. i.)- special: The Chicago limited einresa train for Boaton broke through a frail iron bridge cm the Boston and Albany Railroad one-half mile east of Chester, and four Wagner cars were crushed, killing fourteen persons, fatally injuring several others, while at least a score are badly hurt. The wreck is the worst ever known on the railroad. The bridge was being strengthened for the big locomotives, and the workmen who were putting in the plates were at dinner when the crash came. The buffet, two sleepers, and a dining car were smashed to kindlings when they struck in the stream twenty feet below, but the two day coaches and a smoker in the rear did not leave the track. The train was seven minutes late at Chester, and the railroad hands say.it was going at the rate of twenty miles an hour when it struck the first of the two spans across the Westfield Hirer. The locomotive seemed to leap across the bridge, as the trusses collapsed and fell over. The conductor was taking tickets In a day coach, and although thrown violently down escaped serious injury. ' A man driving by gave the alarm throughout the village. In a few moments hundreds were on the scene. The shrieks of the imprisoned were most terrible, and scores of people looked on completely unnerved. The heroes of the hour were Dr. Geo. I Wood of CollinaviUe, who went to the train to meet his wife, and the colored porters and waiters in the dining car, who, although their faces were bruised and cut and covered with blood, did splendid work. The village people soon recovered from the shock and were hard at work. The hospital was a group of apple trees in an adjoining ochard, where scores were taken. Ox teams arrived with loads of straw, cushions, bedding, and food. The wounded were soon removed to the houses of N. A. Harwood, Washington Moore, and C. J. Crocker, and all that remained on the apple-strewn ground were fourteen bodies covered with blankets from an adjoining stable. Many of the dead were horribly mutilated, the heads crushed in, limbs torn, and often recognizable only from their clothing. BAYING MA-X-C. mail Two WUl Dte. "A horrible shooting scrape occurred near Butler, Ind., which will cause the death of two and probably three prominent residents. Samuel Deeter, a wealthy and respected farmer residing two miles west of this city, became demented and 'Procuring a revolver shot and fatally wounded Amos Bachetel, Mrs. John Lowe and William Yates. Bachetel was shot in the groin. Mrs. Lowe in the Bide and arm and Yates in the back and arm. After the shooting occurred Deeter then set fire to his mother's barn, burning up all this year's crops, the loss amounting to several thousand dollars. The maniac was finally captured by the officers and is now in safe keeping. Amsterdam special: Nine fresh cases of cholera and five deaths were reported in Leerdam recently. The Dutch-American Steamship Company has notified its agents that all emigrants before embarking must remain five days under the observation of an American physician in the company's hospital. The emigrants will not be allowed to come or go at pleasure, but will be obliged to sleep and eat in the hospital. AppsUns Low of Ufa, Receiver Averill of the Port Royal and Augusta road, wires the Augusta, Ga., Chronicle that the loss of life on the Sea Islands, S. C, by the late hurricane, far exceeds anything yet reSarted and will not fall far short of 600. reat destitution exists among the 7,000 remaining inhabitants and urgent appeal is made for aid in shape of provisions, crops and provisions having been entirely destroyed. Strike far Wage. - Peoria special: The freight business of the Jacksonville Southern Line, running between here and St. Louis, is tied up by a strike, the trainmen re living to worK on tne ground tnat tneir wages had not been paid since June. The railroad officials have notified all connecting lines that freight will not be received until the matter la settled.

Friday's event at tho Capital, says a Washington correspondent, was tho speech of Senator Hill, which wtis a long and euro lolly (iropared effort on tho sliver question. The Sen it tor mads no direct political attack upon President Cleveland, as had been ex pected he would.

He said that rresiaent Cleveland was not a uinmnuum, and added that bo would not follow the gold path marked out by the administration, Here Is what hcsald on this point: I shall refnse to .follow In the footstep of any administration that seeks to place the Democratic party In a false position, that seeks to lead It away from Its traditions, away from the currency of our fathers, away from the party of safety, away from the Democratlo principles and platforms end into tbe very camp ox tne enemy, i ne rroeiaent must rviy upon Republican votes to carry out any such snlcidal policy. I shall not believe, however, that any such course will be taken by the President of his own volition, or even under the insntration of indiscreet advisers, until clearer evidence shall be furnished than now exists, STORM SWEEPS SOUTH. Minions of Dollars' Damage Done at Sa vannah and Other Places. Almost on the anniversary of tho great hurricane of MSI Savannah, Ga, was swept Monday nlgbt by one of the severest storms it has ever known. The storm, which had been predicted by the weather bureau tor several days, tngan early In the afternoon and Increased until It reached a climax between 11 and IS o'clock at night; hiring blown for eight hours In a terrific hurricane. Tremendou damage to property waa caused here and throughout tho South, while the loss of life will be up In the scores. The ruin at Quarantine is Immeasurable Nothing It standing where one of the finest stations of the fc'outh Atlantic was a few hours ago except the doctor's house, and how this weathered the fearful gale Is mlraculom. The wharves were gone, the new fumigating plant which has cost the city so much money Is In tho bottom of the sea and nine vessels which were waiting there for release to come to tbe city are high and dry In the marsh and no doubt will be total wrecks. The Cosnlne was tbe only vessel which managed to keep afloat. Tybee Is reported completely destroyed, with frightful loss of life. The known property loss is already over 81,000,MAir HEADS BROKEN. Chicago Police and Unemployed Panders in Seriovs Collision. In a' short but bloody battle Faturday Afternoon between a score of Chicago policemen and an angry mob of nearly 1,000 idle men the blnecats put tbelr assailants to flight and scattered them to the four winds with broken heads and braised limbs. Tbe battle was fought within the shadow of the City Hall and was the climax of tbe daily parades of unemployed men that bsve been taking place for nearly a week. The last parade, which culminated In a bloody riot, was entirely broken up, and no more will be permitted. Five officers were injured In the riot. At least a dozen of the rioters were badly beaten by tho ofneers' billies. Two of ' the ringleaders, Victor Horovlu and Joseph Wenzel, had their scalps laid open by policemen's clubs and were captured. Four or five of tbe rioters were captured, but refused to give their names. Within ten minutes after the outbreak the mob was dispersed and invisible, and beyond a small army of blnecoats in tbe vicinity cf the city hU there was no sign of the recent battle. The trouble was precli Itated by a U. 8. mall wagon trying to cross the line of parade. . FOBC-D TO TJ8E A REVOLVER.

Most Revlne Their AssetsKansas State Bank Commissioner Breidentbal has i.sucd a circular to all State and private banks In Kansas In which he calls attention to tbe refusal of New York banks to pay drafts, except through the clearing-bou-e, and declares that this action would Indicate that the banks are insolvent, tbe United States Supreme Court having declared Insolvency to be Inability to meet obligations in the usual ordldary course of business, which, applied to banks, means Inability to pay the demands that are made upon them, not In clearing-house certificates, but In cash, lawfnl money. Ho calls attootlon to section 13 of the Kansas bauking law, and continues: "In view of these facts, balances due from Now York City banks,-ln excess of 2 per cent of your profits, will not be considered as a part of your legal reserve until such banks shall again resume payment In lawful money of the United States," Chase a Thief with Bloodhounds.

B. a Dun Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: The Improvement observed last week has become much more distinct and genoral While actual transactions have Increased but little, the change In public feeling Is noteworthy. There are fewer falluies, stlther of banks or of Important commercial or manufacturing concerns, than for some weeks past. Many disasters huve been avoided by a more general pooling of resources and a greater spirit of mututl helpfulness and forbearance than wero seen some weeks ago. Treasury Pays Gold.

HUKDBEDS ARE LOST.

MIGHTY HARVEST OF DEATH IN THE SOUTH. Ruin Wrought on Every Side Scores of Lives Destroyed by (lie Angry loinent Sout herb Coast Strewn wit h a Hurricane's Wreckage. Work of tbe Wind. As communication becomes established with that part of the South devastated by tho furious hurricano of Sunday and Monday, morn comjileto flotailti of the awful visitation are made known. Many places where the storm was most severe are not reached by telegraph, and reports from these points ar-i necessarily slow and inaocurato. Tho cyclone ffow through Port Royal, S. C, at tho rate of 100 miles tin hour, and was followed by a tidal wave that almost swept the town away. One hundred lives are said to have been lost hero. At tho time this is written Port Royal is completely cut off from the outside world, as all the teleirraph wires are down and the railroads washed away. Kven the people themselves have no idea of the extent of damage done. The messenger was unable to give the exact number of lives lost, but without overestimating says that over loo persons were killeu and drowned. He saw himself thirty dead bodies. Others are being recovered, and many are still missing. The suffering and misery the storm has caused cannot bo pictured nor the damage to property be esl imated. Most of the drowned are negroes. The eflc Uauufort and Port Royal were apprehensive in regard to the fate of St. Helena, u small Island four miles from Beaufort. They were unable to hoar a single word from there. There wore twenty-five lives lost betweon Port Royal ami Siabrook, a small station only four miles from the harbor, all of them negroes, who wero plantation hands. Houses were blown down and carried in every direction, and almost a tidal wave covered the town to a dept h of ten and twolvo feet. Only meager reports have been received from other points near Beanfort, and it is feared that uauy moro negroes havo been killed. The Alma Cumming, a largo boat loading at tho Sea Island Chemical Works, was swept from its moorings and liacly injured. The pilot boat Palmetto, tied up at Port Royal docks, was blown to pieces and finally sunk a few yards from its moorings. Every house inPortKoyal and Beaufort was seriously damaged, Livc-i Lost by Hundreds. A passenger train of tho Atlantio Coast line reached Richmond, Va., from Charleston, S. C, having boon delayed twenty-four hours by the storm. J. B. Bcddinacauld, the Southern Express Company's messenger, who was in Charleston during ti e storm, says that the battle of wind and rain began with terrific forco at ono o'clock on Sunday afternoon and C'ntinued without cessation until Monday morning at seven o'clock. While the record of terror and ruin wrought by tho great disaster of 1885 remains unbroken, Charleston stood in the track of thi cyclone which has shaken the old city to her foundation stones. The total damage to property cannot lie told for some days, and tho loss of life is unknown. Not fifty yards' space wits left In the streets that did not contain debris of all kinds roofs of houses, signs, awnings, telegraph polos, etc., which wore scattered in all directions during tho storm. It is reported that five hundred persons havo been drowned on the feea Islands, but this report cannot be verified. Tho Sea Islands skirt tho coasts of North and South Carolina, uoorgia ana r loricia. Storm nt Savunnah, At Savannah, Ga., tho storm, which had been predicted by the weather bureau for several days, began early in the afternoon and, according tou'dispatoh, increased from then on until it reached the climax between 11 and 12 o'clock at night, having lasted for eight hours. The storm ana rain ceasoa lor awhile in tho afternoon. It began again with terrific force and tho work of destruction reigned supremo and lasted until midnight, when the storm spent its fury. All the wharves along tho river lront ana ocean steamsnio companies and Savannah, Florida and Western uauroaa wnarves wero unaer water. The citv streets wore impassa ble on account of debris and fallen tro.-s, twisted roofs, masses uf brick Ienc.es, ana broken umos ana orancnes. It is difficult at tho time this is writ ten to estimate the damage as tho result of the storm, but it was very general, and it is safo to say it will go up in the hundreds of thousands and perhaps higher. Nearly if not quite all the property owners in tho city have been damaged to some extent and some to the amount of thousand. Fourteen lives are known to bo lost, and this will certainly be augmented when details come to hand. There aro forty or fifty othor pei si ns who ai e reported mi-sing, and it is supposed,.as nothing has been heard from them, that their bodies will be found later on. Twelve barks and barkentines which were anchored off quarantine station we,-e thrown high upon the island, and some of them wore carried by the storm across the marshes into an island twenty miles distant from tho quarantine station. Tho ruin at quarant ine is immeasur able. Nothing is standing whore one of the finest stations of the South Atlantic was twenty-four hours before, except tho doctor's house, and how this weathered the leariul gaio is miracu lous. The wharves are gone, the new fumigating plant, which cost the city so much money, is m tno bottom oi toe sea, and nine vessels which wero waiting there for release to go to the city are high and dry in the marsh, ana no doubt will bo total wrecks. Tho Cosnino was the only vessel which managed to keep afloat. It is re ported tnat eignt ot tlie crew oi a terrapin sloop which went ashore on the south end wore drowned. All the bath houses are gone, tho Knights of Pythias' club house was washed away, two of the cottngos of the Cot tage Club aro also gone. The Ranch and Rambler c lub houses wore wrecked and the railroad track is cleaned out. The water swept with tremendous force over "ho island, railroad tracks being carried from 300 to 500 feet. Tho people of Savannah and at Brunswick had warning of the coming storm and took to flight. Hut for this the loss of lifo would havo been terrible. Whole rows of houses wero wrecked and everything in the path of tno wina wont uown. mo Known property loss is already over $1,000,000. Havoc In the Kast. At Baltimore not since the big flood of 18fi8 has such a deluge of water invaded, tho city. Tho wind blew a gale all tlio afternoon, damaging all movable propertv. Mountainous seas wore piled up and rolling in the basin. The waves spread over tho wharves and flooded the streets and buildings adjacent, Mon rowed around in bouts from store to store in tho lower part of tho city carrying morchants and clerks to their places of business und removing valuable goods and books. The streets rosonibled lagooi s rathor than business thoroughfares. The wharves were completely submerged, if not destroyed. New York, Philadelphia, llo-ti n and other cities suffered toa greater or less extent. Along the Coney Island beach everything has been swept away, ami tho roofs of many big buildings were carried for blocks. Tho storm seems to have had its origin in a cyclone arising in the West j Indies and from there swept al iijr the ; Atlantic coast in a north-ast ry direction for a distance of nearly 1,,'rf'O miles. i Stolo a ('ana! float. j Sun-iay night thieve' sb;!e a ci'iii boat on" the Miiwiii m. i Ki-i.- rana'. Which n as tied up t:U.t:l tnir'v mile.-

south of Toledo, Ohio. They next caught a horso in a neighboring pas tore, hitched him to the boat ana liuuled it to Doliituco. Horo tho thieves broke into J. B, Weisonborg's elevator and stole about SUM worth of clover seed. This they loaded into the boat, and a start was' then made for Toledo. After getting through three locks the robbers ran tho boat into tho Mauinec River, hoping the current would carry

thorn down. By this time tho alarm had been given, and the men, being closely pursued, ran tho boat into the bank, t lion cscupoa into wooa county. Tho police havo no clow to the robbers. . RAIN FAILS TO FALL. Hot and Dry Weather Continues In Many Regions Crop Conditions. Washington dispatches In speaking of the weather and crops during tho past week say that hot and dry weather continue J in the Ohio Valley, where the crops have bien injured In many sections by continued drought. Frosts wero reported in Wisconsin, which must have caused some damage. The weather was more favorable in the Northwest. Crops wero generally improved in tho States to the west of tho upper Mississippi, while the conditions were unfavorable In tho States of the Ohio Valley and Tennosec. In the Southern Rocky Mountain districts the season is roporte 1 a- tho most satisfactory for years, while in the Northern Rocky Mountain districts the ground is dry, crops neod rain, and tl o ranges are in poor condition. Tho week va- dry throughout tho centrul valleys, except in portions of Kansas and Nebraska. Over the greater portion f the region named crops are much in neetl of rain, and especially from the lake region southward to tho east Gulf coast. The West India hurricane which passed inland from Florida to Northern New England caused great damago tc growing crops in Eastern Georgia, South Carolina, and portions of North Carolina and Virginia. Generous rains occurred in North Dakota and portions of Minnesota, but tho week was drier than usual from the Rocky Mountain! westward to tho Pacific coast. Alabama reports cotton picking getting along favorably, but the crops are in need ol showers. Northern Georgia reports that corn has been injured by droughts. coitN cnoi' is l-oon. The Farmers' Review Gives the General Outlook as Discouraging. Tho Farmers' Review, which is generally recognized as authority in the matter of crop conditions, this week contains the following: Corn Since our last report tlie oondltlon of corn has continued to deteriorate. Only one In nine of the correatMndents lu Illinois report the crop lu eoou condition. Two-ninths report fair. Over ri per cent, of all the connt report the outlook as very discouraging. In Indiana there has been a great decline in condition, and In only a few eouutles will ther; be an averaaro crop.

-AND-

StomachLiver Cure The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar. It is Safe and Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introdnced into this country by the proprietors and manufacturers of the Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a enrative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure of indigestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of the greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It perforins this by the great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its g :"""t curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengtheuer of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the lungs than any consumption remedy ever used on this continent It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthener and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten or fifteen years to the lives of many of those who will use a half dozen bottles of the remedy each year. IT IS A GREAT REMEDY FOR THE CURE OF

Nervousness, Nervous Prostration, Nervous Headache, Sick Headache, Female Weakness, Nervous Chills, Paralysis, Nervous Paroxysms and Nervous Choking, Hot Flashes, Palpitation of the Heart, Mental Despondency, Sleeplessness, St. Vitus' Dance, Nervousness of Females, Nervousness of Old Age, Neuralgia, Pains in the Heart, Pains in the Back, ! ailing Health,

Summer Complaint of Infants.

All these and many other complaints cured by this wonderful Nervine Tonic. NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de
