TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, APRIL 28, 1904. 11 RAILROAD TO TILLAMOOK Its Fate to Be Decided at Approa ching Conference With Harri man Officials. SWEPT BY SWIRE. Russians Sink a Vessel. Kansas Town Hit by a Tornado. T o K in , April 25 —The eunsers Rossia and Gromovoi, of the Vladivostok squadron, participated in an attack on Gensan today. Thev were accompanied by a third cruiser not yet identified and by two torpedo-boats. Later they en tered the harbor, ordered the crew of the Govo Maru ashore, and then sank her. A detachment of marines was landed, but was recalled, and the warships steamed out of the harbor. The Japanese and many Coreans fled when the Russians approached. Late telegrams say the Russian squadron re. mains off the harbor of Gensan. It is thought here that this Russian naval movement was made in the hope of intercepting some unprotected Japan, ese troopships. (The Vladivostok squadron consists of the cruisers Rossia, Gromovoi, Rurik and Bogatvr. The last is a protected cruiser, and the others are armored cruisers, the four being among the most powerful in the Russian navy. Gensan js about 350 miles southwest of Vladi vostok.) ___ M c P herton , Kan.,April 24.—A severe tornado struck McPherson this after noon, demolishing six residences and c (using more or less other damage to property. Three persons were injured, one seriously. Much damage was done in the county north of here. A funnel-shaped cloud approached the town from the South following the course of a ravine. . The residence ot S. W. Rieff was first struck and the house, barn, windmill and outbuildings destroyed. All the members of the family escaped except a young man who was bruised and scratched. The residence of Mrs. P. S. Fisher was next struck. The building was picked up and carried a considerable distance and demolished, The family had seen the approach of the storm and escaped. The large Fisher apple orchard was ruined. The large residence of Archie Brown, next in the path of the storm, was wrecked and two of Mrs. Brown’s daughters injured. One, struck by the cookstove falling upon her, was seriously hurt. The residence of Peter Sellberg was next wrecked, the family escaping. After wrecking the slaughter-house of S. G. Grant, the storm lifted and passed south, traveling in the direction of Linds borg. Beyond McPherson the tornado fol lowed the ground, taking the path of an old water course. The Tornado passed four miles east of Salina, wrecking tele phone and telegraph poles and farm property. Efforts made to follow the course of the storm by telephone were made but all the wires were down. It is a merical that great damage was not done at McPherson and many per- sons killed, as the toruado barely missed the thickly settled residence district. ’»¿«-ó Xi HEADQUARTERS* FOR DAIRYMEN’ AND S SUPPLIES STEEL STOVES & RANCES (From the Oregonian.) An important meeting between the offi » cials of the proposed Portland, Tilla- mook&Nehalem Railroad and the officials of the Harriman svstein will be held in Portland within the next few days. It is expected that after that meeting actiye steps will be taken towards the construction of the new road over one of the two routes now’ under considera tion. The fate of the road for the time being, however, depends upon that meet ing, it is said, and should the Harriman officials prove obstinate, its construc tion may be delaved indefinitely. Some vital questions remain to be settled at this meeting, but n >0 believed and hoped that they will be settled in a manner satisfactory to the project that has for its object the construction ot a railroad into a country where one is a crying need.
