Chicago,- April . 28. During a gale
that swept through Jackson . Park yes
terday afternoon, sections of the south
and west walls of the rnanufacturers'
and liberal arts building of the world's
fair were wrecked. This is the biggest
building on the grounds. One tornado
followed another.: About 1:30 p. m.,
the first one hit the big building at the
southeast, corner, and "tore out 100
feet of the latticed woodwork that served
as a wall. Three men were injured in
the wreck. Half an hour later another
tornado tore through the park, and in
its path left the wreck of the west wall,
100 feet long and . sixty-six feet high.
Nobody was injured in the fallV - When
the first section tumbled down all the
employes climbed down from the build
ing. Nearly all of them, were crowded
about the wrecked section:-when the
second tornado did the greatest damage.
Scores of workmen would have been
carried down with the falling timbers
had the west section given way first.
Warned of their peril by the collapse of
the south wall, they hurried down before
the second section fell. . The wind blew
great guns all day, but the laborers kept
at their work. After the first crash
Frank Agnw, contractor for the carpen
ter work on the building, ordered his
men to. make ready for another shock by
bracing the weaker, sections of the build
ing. He was confident that the west
wall would stand against any storm, but
had less confidence in the strength of
the east wall, which stretches 1,718 feet
along, the lake shore and is fully exposed,
to the winds. x Before his orders could be
carried out the -second gale swept through.
the park It also cameirom the south
west and rushed through the building
with frightful velocity; . The tornado
seemed to describe a-circle across the
30-acre floor and strike- the '.extreme
northwest corner of the building. The
first damage was done at - .the southeast
corner. The massive timbers trembled
and shook for an instant before "the
blast. The whole section, rocked, and. 'a
deafening, roar, .sounded through the
building.' One of the heavy wall-piers
at the very corner of the building snap
ped and plunged forward with the cen-.
tef of the. wall and as-, it: fell , it carried
down the next "pier- south of it. The
whole wall crumbled, falling 'down by
piers and trusses, like so many blocks in
a row. In an instant the entire section,
700 feet long and sixty-six. feet high,' was
piled on the. floor. The few workmen
who remained at their posts went down
with the . wreck,' but- escaped injury.
Three of them jumped to save their lives.
This building is the largest fair building
in the world.. It is, 1,700 feet, long by
150 feet wide, and will cost $1,500,000. . ,

Victoria, B. C, " April 28. Grave
fears are entertained as to the safety of
John Ingersoll and Steve Vaughn, who
left last November on a prospecting and

was also on a similar trip to that region
When they left Alert bay they only took

have been made of all the steamers and

National Bank.. Failure.
Washington 4p'ril 28. -In the house,
the committee on banking and currency
yesterday: began the investigation
ordered by the Mutchler resolution into
the failures of the Keystone and Spring
Qarden.National banks of Philadelphia.
Andrew J. Sarden, assistant book-keeper
and collector of the Keystone National
bank, swore that he knew where the
books of the bank were in which false
entries had been made. : The witness
said Lawrence, one of the employes,
kept the books in part of which he made
the forged balances.- The amounts were
doctored by rubbing theni off the book
and making false charges. Sarden said
he saw Lawrence make ah entry for
John Bardsley for $40,000 or $50,000.
He said they put him out of the bank
one night while they doctored the books
and that imitations of his "handwriting
had been on the books, which, upon see
ing them at . first he. thought actually

What Stanford Says. v
Pittsburg, April 28. Senator Leland
Stanford passed through here this a. m.,
and during the 20 minutes waiting at the
depot for a change of locomotives, was
engaged, in a conversation; upon political
events. aiuvhk oLner luinira ne said :
The peoples' or independent party, will-
certainly have a candidate in the-field
next fall. With a national debt of. $2j
000,000,000 ; ' an ' enormous, railway: in
debtedness f half the land mortgaged and
the load growing heavier ; it is time that
measures of relief be taken. In the west
particularly, people feel the need of freer
money. The peoples' party hope to gel
it. ";. I do not . know who their candidate
is to be. I presume Mr. Harrison and
Mr. Cleveland will he the respective can
didates of their parties.,. This is the gen
eral impression in the west." Regard
ing the university at Palo Alto, the sen
ator said he was making accommodation
for 500 more pupils.

Philadeli-uia, April 28. A very dis
a8trou fire occurred here last night des
troying nearly $1,000,000 worth of prop
erty,. killing several people anf injuring
half a hundred others. It broke out on
the stage of the Grand Central theatre"
shortly before the time set for the open
ing of the play and spread with such
rapidity that it had a stubborn hold
upon the. building before the firemen'
arrived. The theatre and the Times
building adjoining were totally! lestroyed,
and several smaller buildings in the vi
cinity wrecked by falling walls. In' the
excitement to get out of the theatre,
many were trampled and received injur
ies from which they will likely die. One
individual, maddened and brutalized,
drew a large knife and cut his way
through the mass of people. Fifty-two
persons were cared for at the hospitals "'J.
in the vicinity. "SeveraL are Teported
missing. The destruction of the theater
proves far more . terrible in its results
than was anticipated. '?ix members of
the ? Devil's Auction Company" lie dead
beneath the fallen walls. Nearly three -score
people are in the hospital suffering
from burns. Of the men and boys ja
hospital, seven are in such a serious con- .
dition that their recovery is doubtful. ,
All were members of the audience. Be
sides those seriously enough hurt to re
main in the hospitals, fully fifty others
were treated for "minor injuries. The
members of the company who lost their
lives are : Thomas Lorella, grotesque, -and
wife Flora, ballet . dancer; Vincen-
tina Chitten, premier danseuse, one of
the Chitten sisters ; Fancheon Cbniters, "
juvenile ; Sarah Gbldsn, ballet dancer r-

Chevenne, Wyo., April 28. The stock-
men imprisoned in Fort Russell are
moving heaven and earth to defeat the
attempt to return them " to Johnson,
county, where the fight with the rustlers -took
place. Four of the ablest lawyers
in the state are working like Trojans on -the
case. What steps they are taking to ,
checkmate their -enemies- they wi?lfc'not '
say. ' They only assert the case shall not
be tried by public opinion. Too much
excitement they think , has been occa
sioned already. . It is how thought tbat-
it was a mistake to remove the prisoners
from Fort McKinley, where, under mili
tary protection, they were safe, and
where, bad they remained, the dangers -of
the return to Buffalo, should it be
come necessary, could have been
avoided., " . -

tance when the gun was discharged and

not known whether it was an accident or
a Suicide.' . - -- -
