AN EASTER STO Does Serious Damage to Property in Pittsburg FORTY PEOPLE BADLY INJURED Wrecks a Church During Services and a Panic Results- Heavy Dam ages. Pittsburg, Special.--Oone of the fiercest wind storms ever known in this section struck the city just be fore noon Sunday and did almost in calculable damage to property and in jued many people, some of whom may die. from -the effects of their wonuds Scores of houses were unroofed, many trees were blown down, mill stacks toppled over and telegraph and tele phone wires generally disabled. The most serious --accident reported up to 9 o'clock. was t$e unroofing of the Knox ville Presbyterian church, in Knox ville. The church was filled with an Easter congregation numbering about 600 persons. While the minister. was in the midst of his sermon, a strong gust of wind blew over the large chimney, and lifted a portion of the roof off the building. The bricks from the chimney crushed through the roof and =carried a huge piece of the cell ing, measuring about 40 by 20 feet, down upon the: worshipers in the pews. An indescribable panic en sued and a frantic rush was made for the doors and windows. The excite ment was soon quieted and the work of rescue begun. At least 40 persons were caught by the wreckage and more or less injured. Of this number ve may not recover. The more sen usly injured are: Dr. R. J. Philipps, aged 4O, concus of brain, may die; Curtis Ray 3I~Ight, 4 years old, internal in y , both legs crushed, probably ;latc; Ciarence McNulty, aged 17, , a*rnal injuries, badly crushed, may -Fletcher Bryon, fracture at the r,of the brain, serious; David 32 arm broken, head cut and Sttere',L s - -. ;1 , 1 n , 17,-h% d ad face c Thomas Meherlin, 18, nus and head cut; Evan Jones, 22, se ons scalp wounds; Mrs. Rachgel Schultz, 35, arms broken. None of the other injured are seriously hurt. In none of the other accidents re ported throughout the city were there any . serious in iries to persons, though many narrow escapes are se corded. The towboat, Belle McGowan, was blown over in the Ohio river op posite Mill Run and completely wrec ed. Her crew narrowly escaped drowning, but all were finally rescued by barbor boats. The corrugated iron roof of the union bridge at the point, was lifted from its fastenings by the wind and portions of it carried a dis tance of a mile. The Whittier School, near Mount Washington, was un roofed and its walls badly twisted. Jones & Laughlin's had 14 of their furnance stacks blown down, necessi tating the shut-down of a portion of their plant for weeks. Reports from near-:by towns are not coming in, probably on account of the crippled condition of the wires. It is feared that much damage has been done in those places. As Rev. T. W. English, pastor of the Robinson Run Union Protestant church, near McDonald, was raising his arms to pronounce the benedic -tion, lightning struck the church spire and it toppled upon the roof, crushing It and injuring a number of worship. ers, two of whom will die. The In jured are: Robert Patterson, aged 10, skull fractured, will die; Leon Averill, 11, skull fractured, will die. Mrs. John Patterson, mother of Robert, severely bruised about body; Mrs. Mary Patterson, arm broken and badly bruised; Miss Mary G. Wal lace, badly bruised; Mrs. Averill, mother of Leon, head and arms cut and bruised. The spire and portions of the roof of the Union Protestant church at McDonald was torn off and the build ing considerably damaged, but no one was injured. The Noblestown Presby terian church was also unroofed, but the congregation escaped injury. The Forest Oil Company had be tween 200 and 300 derricks blown down in its McDonald region and con siderable damage was sustained by Its pipe system. The offices of the Monongahela Con necting Railroad, on Second avenue, this city, were destroyed by fire dur -ing the afternoon, because no alarm could be sent in either by telephone or telegraph. The Armstrong Cork .Company's plant on Liberty avenue, between Twenty-fifth and Twenty sixth streets, was unroofed and much damage done to machinery and stock. Reports from the different railroads tonight show that all suffered more or less from broken telegraph poles and crippled service. All, however. were in good shape and trains run ning by 8 o'clock. The baseball park in Allegheny lost one of its fences and a portion of the grand stand roof. More than 2,500 lights of glass in the Philipps' conservatory were broken. The Mon tana apartment house at Pennsyi . vania avenue and Fairmont street, East End, and the Idaho building, which adjoins it, were partially de gahela and Turtle creek valleys will reach thousands of dollars, but no specially bad individual loss is re ported. Almost the entire eastern dis trict of this city is in darkness to night, the electric lighting system having been put out of commission by the storm. The down-town portions were repiared early in the afternoon. The storm, which came upon the city very suddenly, came up through the Ohio valley and passed on eastward. It lasted only about 30 minutes, only five minutes of which was at a ve locity unusually . high. In that five minutes prctically ill the damage done was accom'plished. IN CONGRESS. Detailed Doings of Our National Law makers, HOUSE. Eightieth Day.-Mr. Boreing, of Kentucky, injected an attack upon the Goebel election law into the dis cussion of the Moss-Rhea contested election case, from- the third Ken tucky district, which again. occupied the attention of the House, but Mr. Rhea declined- to be drawn* into an extended debate. upon- an issue not directly involved in the case. He con, tented himself with paying his re spects to Mr. Boreing, charging the latter with ignorance of the law of his own. State. Mr. : Rhea .made - a strong representation of his side of the case, but had not concluded when the House adjourned. The vote will be taken about 2 o'clock tomorrow. The speakers today were Mr. Bowie, of Alabama-; Mr. Porter, of Maine, and Mr. Fox, of Mississippi.. - Mr. Boreing, Republican, of Ken tucky, denounced in. severe terms the Goebel election law, which he de clared was enacted to "crush the pub lic will," and which he said was used to turn out duly-elected- State officers and place in power defeated candi dates. He said it made the election machinery of the State an adjunct of the Democratic organization. Under it the Republicans had been able to elect only 30 members of the Legis lature out of 100, although Beckham had carried the State by only 3,500 plurality. Mr. Rhea drew .a round of applause from his party colleagues when he de clared that if he believed he had been returned to Congress by fraud, injustice or partisanship, he would "- to hold a-aeat itha o 4n~rtu~ he . , regd(ied that his 90I iiot played 'the part he had.'"I s1~all~not say 'anything unkind of or about hI m' said he, "nor against his poli tical associates In Kentucky, and I will not bd taken away from the issue before the House further than to say that his speech disclosed the fact that he is both partisan and ignorant of the election laws of Kentukey." Mr. Rhea declared that the law which lodged the final canvass of the election returns in the General As sembly in Kentucky had existed ever since that State had been a State, and that if Goebel had never lived the law which was invoked and which set tled the contest of 1899 would have. been the same. Mr. Rhea declared that the Republicans controlled the slection machinery in four out of the five election precincts over which thene were disputes. SENATE. Eightieth Day-Throughout the ses sion of the Senate the oleomargarine bill was under discussion. The debate was interesting at all times and some phases of it were amusing. Mr. Hansbrough, of North Dakota, concluded his speech begun Tuesday '.n support of the measure, maintaining that the oleomargarine industry had been outlined by the Legislatures of the many States and that it ought to; be compelled by Congress to take off its mask and place its product upon the :narket for what it really was. Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, declared that the proposed legislation was unneces sary and that there wo,s no more rea son for taxing colored oleomargarine than for taxing colored butter. The pricipal spee'ch of the day was delivered by Mr. Doiliver, of Iowa. He spoke forcefully and at times eloquent ly and throughout commanded the in terested attention of his colleagues and of mf.ny members of the House who had come to the Senate to hear him. He scathingly denounced the oleomar garine industry, declaring that it had put itself in partnership with lawless ness and false pretenses. Mr. Dolliver concluded his speech with a glowing eulogy of farm life and of the Ameri can farmer, Confederate Battle Abbey. Atlanta, Ga., Special.-Trustees of the Confederate Memorial Association at a meeting held in this city last week definitely determined upon Rich mond. Va., as the place to build tihe Confederate Museum. One hundred thousand dollars was donated by the late Charles Broadway Rouss toward the founding of a Battle Abbey in the South. provided a like sum could be raised by popular subscription. In the report submitted by the treasurer of the association it was shown that all of the additional amount had be-en ob tained and pledged. Fun for Schoolboys. The German Navy League has ar ranged for several thousand school boys to spend two days with the fleet under expert guidance. They will be instructed In the- workings of war ships. They will come in relays, be ginning each September, when nearly the whole German fleet will be at Kiel. The object of the plan is to make pa triot of the lads. PATRICK IS GUILTY. Quick Agreement of Jury in Famous Case. MURDERED MILLIONAIRE RICE. the Object of the Crime Was . Get Possession of the Old flan's Valus ble Estate. New York, Special.-Albert T. Pat rick, lawyer, was convicted of the mur der on September 23, 1900, of the aged millionaire recluse, William - Marsh. Rice. The penalty under the statute is death in the elect:ic chair. A scant three hours of deliberation the close of a trial prolonged for nin weeks and replete with sensational in terest sufficed to enable the jury to reach their verdict. The issue of the trial establishes the. charge that Par rick consipred with Mr. Rice's valet, Charles F. Jones, to obtain possession of the aged Texan's estate, estimated at $7,000,000, and that Jones killed his em ployer by the administration of cho form at the direct instigation of r rick. At the close of Recorder G6ff's charge, which occupied the morning session of the court, the jury retired. This was at 1:50 p. m. At 5:55 they no tified the officer in charge that they were ready to return to court, rather more than an hour of the intervening time having been devote.d to luncheon. In anticipation of -a scene of excitement in the event of a verdict of guilty, the unusual step was taken of ordering all women to leave the court room. Among them were the prisoner's two sisters and Mrs. Francis, with whom he boarded. With grave faces the members of the jury filed into their places and some minutes of painful tension elapsed while messengers were endeav oring to find the counsel, who had de parted not expecting a verdict for manV hours. Calm as ever and with confidence seemingly unshaken, the prisoner was escorted In the court room. He walked rapidly and took his stand facing -the jury with head erect, and hands loose ly clasped behind his back. - At the word "guilty" pronounced by Foreman: Machell, in a tone- 1.w, :but distindt: 3a :ion- listless Wfifle the customary poll of the j was being taken. His aged father', Captain Patrick, sitting near him; antt straining to catch the statefihent of the foreman, started for an instant as Its import reached him. A smile af triumph lit up the face of Assistant District Attorney ..Osborne, who hastened from the court Immedi ately after the recorder had, at the re quest of the prisoner's counsel, fixed on a week from Monday as the day dn' which to pronounce sentence. The ver dict was known almost immediately In the corridor where the women relatives and friends of the prisoner were wait ing, and a scene of excitement ensued. Screaming hysterically, the prisoner's oldest. sister ran about the corridor, begging to be allowed to see her brother. Mrs. Francis faited and on recover ing broke from the attendants, and rushed into the court room, from which Patrick had just been removed. There she again swooned. Both women were removed to an ante-room and were sent home in a carriage. Captain Patrick took leave of his son who was led back to the Tombs. He would only say: "It is hard; we'll have to try agai-1." None of the jurors could be induced to reaveal how the verdict had been reached, an agreement having been made to tell nothing. A motion will be made for a new trial when the prisoner is arranged for sentence. DEATH OF CECIL RIHODES. Uiniversal flourning in Cape Town in Consequence. Cape Town, By Cable.-Cecfl Rhodes died peacefully at 5:57 p. n Wednesday. He slept during the morning and again In the afternoon but his breathing became more diffi cult and his strength perceptibly di minished until he passed away. -The government has decided to give Cecil Rhod.es a public funeral. His remas will be brought here from Gro chuur, for the burial service. wI will be held in the cathedral. body will then be taken back t Grooteschuur and will eventually be interred at Matoppo Hills. The news of his death spread through Cape Town between 7 and 8 o'clock Wed nesday evening and caused profound grief. All places of amusement were immediately closed. An open-air con cert was stopped and the audience uncovered, while the band played "The Dead March." The people then silently dispersed. News in Paragraphs.

May 20th The Day When She Will Be Fully Lberated PALNA WILL BE INAUGURATED. It is Decided That The Government Shall Be Turned Over to the Presi dent-Elect flay 20th. Washington, Special.-May 20, 1902, is the new date fixed for turning over Cuba to Its people. The change of date was made, if not at the suggestion, then with the full approval of, President elect Palma and his advisers, Senators Tamana..an. Quesada, who were with him a tthe War Department Tuesday. This date should be a memorable one In Cuban history, for it will not only mark the acquisition of full independ ence, but will be the Cuban inaugura tion day, it having been- determined that President Palma shall be inaugur ated on the same day that the control of the island ceases. All but the smallest details of the c, change has been planned, and these remaining details were under adjust ment at a meeting held :t the War De partment today. Besides Secretary Rtoot President Palma ahd Senators Tamaya and Quesad' General Wood attended. The meeting occurred in the Secreta ry's office. Besidea'the final selection of May 20 as Cuban Independence day, two other imppitant conclusions were reached- The first was that _General Wood should immediately, fipon his re turn to Cuba, Issue a call comvening the first Cut.au Congress on May 10, in order. that the body might employ the ten days following that date in sup plying aiy legislation necessary to the assumptton of full powers in the island. The other conclusion was that there should be no half-way evacuation of the.islatld, tut that the disposition is to move the' entire United Stites con tingent, divil and nilltary, away from not even leaon&a corpor any of the amPs except in the-defensee on-the coast, which will be garrisoned by United' States troops. If this pro gram is not executed It will be for the sole reason that the Cubans themselves through their authorized officials re quest -thgt Ithe departure of the United States troops be delayed for a time.

There is a negro desperado running loose in Horry county, terrifying the. people over there, and the governop has offered $100 for the recapture of the negro, who is really an escapted convict and should be arrested by the county supervisor without payment ci reward. However, the governor comr sidered that the matter is a serious one and deserving of official notice. In a letter from Col. D. A. Spivey.' a prominent young banker, the gov ernor is fully informed of the; con ditions. The letter is endorsed by Sen. ator McDermott. The facts are that John Harrell was sentenced to -19 months on the chaingang for some. misdemeanor. After two days of spr vitude he escaped and not only has, he remained at large but it appearg that no efforts are being made to re-. capture him. The county supervisor is credited with saying that he is pow erless to act; the sheriff says it is none of his business, and the stockade guard says he cannot leave the chaingang to go in pursuit of the escaped convict.. Col. Spivey continues.that the negro is in hiding within a mile of Conway, and is lying in ambush. -He has-made' threats against the lives of some of the best citizens of the county, Including the intendant, the magistrate, and - clerk of the court, the depnty shitiff and others. . He wanted to know If it is.not some* body's business to ..capture this -des perado. The offering of a reward was not asked for, but 'it will no doubt.' bring the negro out of his hiding place. -Columbia State. . The governor Is in a quandary in the matter of paying the ,awyers who are called in to preside over special terms of court. The law provides that these acting judges shall be' paid $10 a day and expenses; bptit 'aed not provide whence the- pay'shall 'omie. - Hereto fore the goveruor. has been paying* these expenses -out" of i his contingent fund. The amount promises to becoms so large this year by reason of ,the unusually large ' ntfirber.: of .speciY terms so held that he- does; iot lines whether to pay these expenses O t let the claims go to the legislat re. The reason why so many counties are seek ing to have special terms of court is because the coQurt dockets .were con gested by reason of the 4-h at old " jury law was tutlonal Govera'r McSweenet icetires' - from.hats to .n The, vernor has.on from 100 or more" who would. like tocatch - gleam of the baleful:ere et dhe tiger.

For the same time In 1900 the sales amounted to $63,937.60,. which.Is less than for the first three months of this year. Therefore It will be seen that the sales this year are about on aspar with the sales of an average year.. The total amount for:last year from this tax was $84,073.43, showing .tt but $7,000 came In after the first of April. If the amount is -yet to be added to- the income for 1901 the re, ceipts. for this year may approximate $72,000. This is about $12.000 short of - last year, but is ample for Clemson college's running expenses. The State exacts a license of 25 cents on every ton of manufactured fertilizer, on the ground that such a fee is necessary in order to pay the' expense of making chemclal examina. tion of the manufactured product. The income fro mthis source is given to Clemson college and is always an amount large enough for the necessi ties of the college. One of the officials in the State treasurer's office said that the farm ers would not need so muchco mercial fertilier if 'they underto the adaptation of soils to the use o fertilizer. He also called attention to the fact that too many farmers neg lect their opportunity and waste the means and material for making splen. - did fertilizer at no cost at all. They# are gradually displaying more energy along this line, but meanwhile the sale of commercial fertilizers con tinues. Thirteen-Year-Old flurderer.
