The storm was one of the hardest that ever passed over this section. It came directly up from the gulf and' started northward. For hours the wind was terrific, blowing at a high rate, and the rain fell In torrents, wash'Jig away many bridges, endangering thoroughfares and . raliroads. The storm reached the coast yesterday morning and there was no cessation until far into last night. The wires and railroads have been so interfered with that the results of the storm, are just beginning to reach this city. Along the coast the fishing Industry has been severely lnterXered with. Many Tallahasseans are at the various resorts along -the coast, from which no reports have come, and the situation at these places Is causing much anxl'people who returned' on the wrecking train which went to Carrabelle this morning report that the country along the route hows the effects of the storm.

Keystone State Volunteers Pnrtlclpn- . ted In Hard FlKlitlnj?. 8AN FRANCISCO, Aug. I-The record of the Tenth Pennsylvania, which arrived yesterday on the Senator, Is one of splendid achievement. Soon after its arrival in the Philippines it took a prominent part In the first and only severe fighting with the Span lards. This was. during the night of July 31 and the morning of Aug. 1, 1SD8, when tha Spaniards were driven from their trenches near Manila while a terrific typhoon was raging. In this historical engagement the Pennsylvania volunteers participated, with the First California Regiment,, the Utah Battery and the Third United States Artillery. On Aug. 13, 1S3S. the Pennsylvanlans participated in the advance on and capture of the city of Manila. On Feb. 14. 1S30, the regi ment was engaged in the first protracted battle or the campaign against the insur gents, this contest ending on the evening of Feb. 5 in the capture of the strongly rortined ue Luna Church, the regiment being under a continuous fire all day. The Pennsylvanlans were surprised at Guigmenta on March 2D and were almost surrounded by a crescent-shaped formation of five thousand Insurgents. For forty minutes they sustained the full force of the enemy, the nearest reinforcements being two hundred yards in the rear. During one of the engagements Lieutenant Colonel Rarnett was struck In the breait by a bullet, which, however, hit a testament In his pocket and inflicted only a superficial wound. The men mourn the death of their mascot, little Billy Dorn, called Searchlight," because of his red hair. He was picked up in this city and taken to Manila as the child of the regiment. The docking of the transport Senator today was unaccompanied by the blowing of steam sirens and the ringing of bells. The death of Colonel Hawkins seemed to have impressed every one in an unusual manner and along the water front flags hung at half-mast. A detachment of soldiers carried the casket containing the remains from the transport to a waiting hearse. A guard will watch it constantly and when the remains are placed on board the cars for the East a guard will be detailed to accompany it. It has been decided that the men shall march to the barracks at the Presidio tomorrow under the escort of the returned Oregon, Utah and Nebraska troops. Killed and Wounded. WASHINGTON.

AH are ordered to move by Friday. The Yaquis are moving in small detachments from place to place, ravaging the country. All of the tribe is headed for the Batucco mountains.

AN ALLEGED DYNAMITER

STRIKING CONDUCTOR ARRESTED BY TIIF. CLEVELAND POLICE. He Is Supposed to Have Blown Up Street Cars The Boycott Gaining Strength Threats of Prosecution. CLEVELAND, O.. Aug. 2.-The police believe they have made an arrest which may lead to important developments In connection with. the. several attempts to blow up Big Consolidated cars since the beginning of the present s trlke. This after noon John Schoenlhal, a striking conductor. was taken Into custody on the charge of being a suspicious person and has since been detained at the central station, where he will be sujected to a rigid examination by the detectives. Several days ago a well digger named Stokes, living at Nottingham, a suburb, told the police that a street-railroad man had tried to purchase dynamite from him. The report was Investigated and the arrest of Schoenthal followed. The prisoner admits that he is the man who approached Stokes, but he says he made the inquiry, at the request of another man, whose name he does not know. He says he was approached by the stranger, who asked him if he knew where ten pounds of dynamite could be purchased. The prisoner told the stranger that he knew a man in Nottingham who used dynamite and that he might have some to sell. Thereupon he went to Nottingham, saw Stokes, but failed to get the explosive. He reported his failure to the stranger, according to his story, and that was the end of the matter. The police will not say what they think of the story, but they declare they are not yet through with the Investigation, and they look upon the arrest as an Important one. Schoenthal had been employed by the company about four years before the strike began. There was practically no change In the strike situation here to-day. President Everett, of the Big Consolidated, declares Ms company has about all the men required, and that the service now maintained cn the various lines of the system is equal to that which was in force prior to the strike. Mr. Everett states h is receiving applications from some of the strikers for reinstatement, and that a number of union men have already been put to work. He was asked if ha would receive a committee of the strikers should one call upon him. "The company has always said," replied the Big Consolidated president, "that it is willing to receive a committee of its employes, but the strikers are no longer in the employ of the company." The strike leaders, on the other hand, insist not a single desertion has occurred. There Is no indication so far of any check in the boycott movement, although the officials of the Dig Consolidated ay there was a marked increase In. the number of rasscngers carried down town on their East End lines this morning. As a matter cf fact, however, the cars, aside from those of the Euclid and Cedar-avenue lines, continue to run almost empty. Tho "spotters" sent out by the strikers are in evidence everywhere along the Big Consolidated lines. They board the cars if there happens to be any nassengers and endeavor to learn their names. Falling in this, the passengers are followed to their homes or place of business, und as a result in most cases their names jo down on the "list." Many merchants who are taking part in the boycott have changed their tactics on account of threats of prosecution and simply place a prohibitive price on their goods to boycotted persons. Major J. R. McQulgg was to-day appointed acting Judge advocate by Adjutant General Axllne, commanding the Ohio National Guard troops on strike duty here. It is understood the acting Judge advocate will at once take up the legal phase of the boycott so far as it relates to the rsoldiers. General Axllne said to-day the storekeepers who refused to sell goods to either soldiers or civilians could undoubtedly be punished under the law. He added that reports were constantly being received at his I eadquarters in the City Hall showing that many storekeepers throughout the city are refusing to sell their goods to the troops. Business Agent Pratt, of the strikers union, said to-day the boycott had practical ly passed out or their hands. "The people themselves,", he said, "have taken it up and where the movement will end no one can tell." Speaking of threatened prosecution, Mr. Pratt said: "Why don't they prosecute some of the corporations who place men on their black lists and follow them up all over the country In order to keep them, out of employment, sometimes for years? This boycott Is undoubtedly a great hardship to many thousands of people. It is, however, the only remaining weapon with which to fight a powerful corporation like the Big - Consolidated. Should we lose it would have a demoralizing effect upon organized labor everywhere. I have no fear, however, as to the final result. We shall win out." Good lawyers say the boycotters may be proceeded against under the Ohio anti-trust law, which covers conspiracies of all kinds in restraint of trade. One lawyer, who has examined the law, says that merchants who refuse to sell goods to boycotted persons, as well as those who assist in placing the boycott upon them, aiding or abetting It in any way, can be convicted of conspiracy without prcof of the existence of a conspiracy. The penalty provided is a fine of from $50 to 15.0W and imprisonment of from six months to a year and each day that the conspiracy continues constitutes a separate offense. This law was passed at the last session of the Legislature, but the authors of it Intended that It should apply only to trusts. At a mass meeting to-night Thomas Fltrslmmons. former Populist candidate for mayor, made a speech In which he denounced Mayor Farley, holding him responsible for the trouble because he permitted the police to ride on the street cars to protect the nonunion motor men. He accuses the mayor of being in league with the president of the Big Consolidated Company. He also denounced the soldiers as murderers and said, they had outraged little girls and invaded the sanctity of home. Other speeches along the same Jlne were delivered. Adjutant General Axllne said to-night that the threat to arrest merchants who had boycotted the troops was having a good effect. The reports received to-day indicated that the soldiers had been able to buy anything they. wanted. WIXDO W-GLASS WORKERS. Manufacture Invited to Hold a. Wnare Conference Next Tuesday. , PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 2. At to-day's session of the National Window-glass Workers' Association convention a resolution was adopted Inviting the' wage committee of the Glass Manufacturers' Association to meet the worker here next Tuesday for a conference regarding the wage ecale for the ensuing year. It is said by members of the workers' association that a new glass trust is forming. In Pittsburg and that options were extended to-day. The combine claims to have options on 90 per cent, of the plants of the country. President Buina ald to-night: "Our Intention is If the associated manufacturers do not come to an agreement with the men at our first meeting with them to at once prepare a scale for the independent manutacturers, wno represent five hundred pots, and start promptly on Sept. 15. These five hundred pots form about one-fifth of the total number in the country." The new trust is said to be backed by the same manufacturers - who established the American Glass Company, which has existed for the pajst two years as a selling agency. Flint Glass Workers. PITTSBURG. Fa., Aug. l-The wage conference of the American Flint Glass Workers' Union and representatives of the glass chimney combine began here to-day and will continue several days. Since the last fire the manufacturers have introduced lamp-chimney blowing machines, which, in a measure, are expected to revolutionize the trade. The manufacturers will insist on a reduction, while the workers will stand out Arm for an advance in wages. Working rules, which, it is alleged, nave been violated, will come up for consideration. A r.umber of concessions were made by bot: sides to-day, after several lively tilts. President Smith, of the Glass Workers' Union, said a settlement will probably be reached for the hand-made goods at last year's wages, hours of work and rules. It was announced to-night that the workj ers have agreed to accept last year's scale on hand work, and an eight and a half hour

workday was agreed upon. The machine question will be discussed to-morrow. BACKING FOR MESSENGER BOYS.

Terre Haute Business Men Slay Boycott the "Western Union. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Aug. 2. The strike of a comparatively few messenger boys of the company which has the contract with the Western Union, and which is said to be owned by Western Union officials, has aroured what seems to be far more interest than the numbers involved warrant. To-day the boys who struck against the reduction of wages from $15 to from $7 to 112 a month began circulating a petition prepared for them by Congressman Farls asking the company to restore their -wages and "earnestly suggesting that the bright and efficient boys that enter your service are capable of anvanclng In wages, to .$15 a month, especially when they furnish and keep in repair their own bicycles." Business men almost without exception signed the petition and a number tell the L-ys that if the company does not yield they will throw their telegraph business to the Postal as far as possible. The management of the office has been careless and unpopular for many years.- which fact has much to do with to-day's feeling on the part of the public. The boys put to .work to-day were very young. One of them was badly beaten as he left the office with a message. To-night it is announced that men will be employed to-morrow. Eugene. Debs, who happens to be home, has a card In an evening paper in which he calls on the public to help the boys. He says that the reduction in wages has no shadow .of excuse and is robbery in its worst form. Strike of Railway Machinists. PORT HURON. Mich.. Aug. 2. The machinists In the Grand. Trunk shops here went on strike to-day. The action is the culmination of trouble which began when J. . C. Gehring, formerly a Wabash man, was installed as foreman. Yesterday Gehring set a nonunion man at: work. The machinists notified him that unkss the new man wag removed they would strike, but the man was set to work, again to-day in place of a former machine hand. Every branch of the International Machinists' Association and the Amalgamated Association of Engineers who have ren in the employ of the Grand Trunk, were notified and the strike will extend to-day over the entire system. J. O'ConnelL master mechanic of the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, haa been summoned from New York to adjust matters. Two hundred arid fifty men are cut here. Lake Shore Engineers. CLEVELAND. O.. Aug. 2 Grand Chief Arthur, chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, said, to-day, .'no official information had reached him concerning the request of the Lake Shore engineers for increased pay. "The grand officers of the brotherhood," said Mr. Arthur, "will take no action in the matter unless the request should be refused by the. company. In that case we should endeavor to. ad Just the matter." It is stated nearly S8 per cent, of the engineers on the Lake Shore are members of the brotherhood. About one thousand men would be benefited by the advance asked for. "Will .Follow Cleveland's Example. CHATTANOOGA. Tenn.. Aug. 2. President Warner, of the City Electric Streetrailway Company, to-day issued a manifesto to his men to the effect that they must decide between employment by the company and membership In the Railway Employes' Union. To-night a meeting was held and. 60 per cent, of the employes Joined the union. It is stated that a strike will be ordered at once. It is further stated that the boycott will beTesorted to and that organized labor unions of the city will sustain the strike. . Wages Raised lO Per Cent. . CLOQUET, Minn., Aug. 2, The wages of employes of the Northern and Cloquet Lumber Company were raised 10 per cent, yesterday on all classes of labor. NOTHING TO ARBITRATE SENATOR PERKINS'S ".VIEW OF THE ALASKAN BOUNDARY DISPUTE. Canada Has No Right to the TerritoryShe Claims Congressman Hull of the Same Opinion. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 2. United States Senator G. C. Perkins has Just returned from Alaska. Speaking of the boundary dispute the senator said: "I think the matter will be amicably settled without arbitration. There is nothing to arbitrate. It would be Just as reasonable for us to Insist on taking up the old boundary question between the United States and Canada again and declare our dissatisfaction with the forty-ninth degree of latitude. England long ago recognized the boundary for which we are contending. She did this when the Hudson Bay Company (which was practically Canada at that time) executed a lease for ten years from Russia of the territory she is now contending for. - This lease was renewed for a second term; so, what better proof could any one ask of our ownership? These lands, which the Hudson Bay Company leased from Russia, and England now seeks to lay. claim to, we purchased from Russia." The senator said high license has proven a success in Alaska. , Views of Congressman Hull. DES MOINES, la., Aug. 2. Congressman J. A. T. Hull has returned from his trip to Alaska to investigate the boundary question. "To yield to the demands of Great Britain in the Alaskan boundary question would be nothing short of crime," he said. "The boundary is all one' hears in Alaska. It Is the topic of the hour and excitement is at a high pitch. It would be disgraceful for the United States to back down in the matter and allow Great Britain to have Skagway. Skagway is the key to all the trade in the gold regions. It is impossible for any other city to control the mining trade. If we allow England to have Its way in thte boundary matter we virtually turn over the Alaskan trade to England: If we assert our rights. In the matter and retain Skagway we are assured of perpetual control of the Alaskan trade. The trade belongs to the United States. Most of the miners in that country are Americans and desire to buy American products." Miners Seeking Redress. SEATTLE. Wash., Aug. 2. Ex-Congressman James Hamilton Lewis has left for Washington to present to the State Department the claims of American miners against the Canadian government for damages sustained through the enactment of a law by the provincial Legislature of British Columbia debarring aliens from locating placer claims in the Atlin mining district. It is expected that the proposed claims will be made a subject of arbitration before the 1oint hlh commission. Mr. Lewis represents about 1KX) miners, whose claims aggregate $3.0CO.00O. Military Post Burned. SEATTLE. Wash., Aug. 2. News of the destruction by fire of the United, States military post at Dyea, on Friday of last week, was brought to this city to-day.

The soldiers composing the garrison have, with their remaining supplies, been moved to Skagway and are now quartered In one of the large warehouses near the water front. WILL DRAW COLOR LINE. Southern Epvrortn Lenrjuers Desire to Bar Colored Christians. HILLSBORO, Tex.. Aug. 2. Hon. F. P. Works, president of the State Epworth League, says Southern leaguers contemplate meeting at some Southern city to consider the advisability of organizing a. Southern convention.

At Toronto and Indianapolis the negro was very much in evidence, and it is the wish to avoid an appearance of social equality hereafter that this meeting was inaugurated

NEW YORK, Aug. 2. The Herald's London correspondent says: "The last survivor of the frmous band of girls who formed themselves into the Queen's Kiss Society has Just died in Essex, according to the Evening News. The society had its origin when the Queen was only about one year old. . The little princess was being wheeled about the park by her nurse when she was suddenly surrounded by a group of laughing schoolgirls, who recognized the royal infant and insisted upon kissing her, microbes having not then tjeen discovered. The nurse's scruples soon yielded to the persuasion of the shillings which the girls displayed. Each maiden offered her a coin for a kiss. Permission was granted, the royal baby was almost smothered by the children's hearty caresses, while stowed away in the back of the perambulator were the 40 shillings which were the nurse's kissing fees. There was, however, a great commotion in the Duchess of Kent's household when the affair became known, and the too pliant nurse was deposed from her proud position. The maidens subsequently founded a society, and when the young princess became Queen they recalled the incident. "We are." they wrote "the first of your subjects from whom your Majesty received homage." On the occasion of important festivities from time to time they addressed expressions to the Queen, but the members have gradually died, and with the death of this aged lady the Society of the Queen's Kiss has passed from existence. ORIENTAL CASUALTIES. Many Lives Lost In a. Hurricane on the Japanese Coast. . VICTORIA, B. C, Aug. 2. The Oriental steamer Victoria, which has reached here, brings reports of damage done by the big: hurricane which raged along the Japanese coast.' Between 300 and 400 people are said to have lost their lives. According to an investigation by the Japanese authorities 400 houses at Oita were swept into the river by the fall of an embankment, and some 120 men, women and children went down to their death in the falling debris. In AshaJumamuru seventy houses were washed away and fifty people were killed and thirty more are missing. A train was swept from the track and ten people were killed. China also seemed to have suffered recently from storms. On its return voyage from Canton to FanHu a Junk foundered In a sudden squall near Loahknog. About sixty persons, mostly women and children, were drowned. . M. Delcasse Goes to St. Petersburg;. PARIS, Aug. 2. M. Delcasse, the minister of foreign affairs, started for St. Petersburg this afternoon to return the visit of Count Muravieff, the Russian minister of foreign affairs. It is reported M. Delcasse also proposes to arrange the details of the Czar's visit to the Paris exposition of 1500, and the newspapers here Intimate the French foreign minister may raise the question of continental action in the event of Great Britain declaring war against the Transvaal. There Is no truth in the statement published by a New York newspaper to-day that strained relations exist between Russia and France owing to President Loubet having failed to telegraph to the Czar his condolences on the death of the czarewitch. The President did telegraph expressing his sympathy to the Czar, and also sent a wreath to be deposited on the tomb of the czarewitch. Germans Satisfied with Osborne. BERLIN, Aug. 2.-A dispatch received today from Apia, under date of July 27, stays the Germans there are satisfied with tho appointment of Mr Luther W. Osborne. United States consul general at Apia, as acting chief Justice, and regard it as a pledgo of impartial administration of justice. A dispatch to the Cologne Gazette from Apia calls the nomination of Mr. Osborne an unpardonable and unjustifiable abandonment of German interests in deference to Anglo-American feeling. The Berlin newspapers, however, express themselves generally as being satisfied that Mr. Osborne will not neglect German interests in Samoa. No Further Concessions. LONDON, Aug. 2.

Continuing, Mr. Chamberlain said that he was convinced the crown and government would be guided by local public opinion, as to the best system. Trial of Toral and Pareja. MADRID, July 2. At to-day's sitting of the court-martial before which Generals Toral and Pareja are being tried on charges of having surrendered to the Americans before exhausting all means of . defense at their command. General Pareja's counsel read telegrams exchanged with the commander-in-chief showing that Guantanamo was capitulated only on orders from a superior officer and that the town was without either provisions or means of defense.
