Bsiistones Called Bun-ways.
At McKcosport hailstones as large as
walnuts fell while the rain poured down in
sheets for a full~hnlf hour. The heavy ins
striking horses caused a number of run-
aways. The lightning struck several build-
ings in this vicinit , and considerable dam-
age Was done. ’1' a greatest injury was
done by the water which came down
White’s Hollow in a stream seventy-five
feet wide. The water was five feet deep on
Fifth avenue at a point below Center
street, and a number of houses which were
below grade were submerged. The water
reached the second story of the Ilcrktolder
residence, causing great damage to that
place and also the place adjoining. It was
by far the heaviest and most unexpected
rain storm of the year.
Killed by Lights-bu.
At Greensborg, Joseph Fry, the gardener
' at St. Joseph's academy, was struck and
instantly killed by a bolt of lightning. A
cow standing near him was also killed.
The heavy rains caused great damage by
the flood in the lowlands in this vicinity.
Cellars and lassement kitchens are flooded.
Lightning also struck Col. Bud’s rialatird
residence, the First Reformed church and
other buildings, doing great damage in
every instance.
Near Washington, Pa, lightning struck
a derrick in course of erection on the Col.
Robert Miller form, shattering it and kill-
ing “’illinm l‘uriitnu, single, seriously in‘
juring William Gates and stunning two

Railroad Tracks flooded.
In Fayette county the ruin fall was ex-
tensive and did much damage to the rail-
roads. In the Third ward swamps the
Southwest Pennsylvania railroad tracks
were flooded several feet deep and trains
were held several hours. The Baltimore
and Ohio is a heavy sufferer. At Bradford
the tracks are covered with water. A heavy
landslide occurred at Oakdale, and salt
was being cleared away a still heavier one
came down, blocking both tracks. The
flood in Mount: creek carried away many
small buildings.
Almost a Clondbnrat.
At Layton Station an immense amount
of mud. rocks and trees come down on the
Baltimore and 0th tracks about 5 o’clock.
The exist bound truck was clear at 90’clock,
but it was again covered for a long distance
by more of the hill coming down. The rain
there amounted almost to a cloudburst.
'f‘rninmen say the streams from the hills
flowed over the track. The west bound
track will not be cleared till late try-night.
At Scottdnle the storm Willi particularly
destructive. Cellars along all the principal
streets are nearly filled with water, and
the goods that many of the merchants had
stowed away are saturated. The creek is
rising steadily, and the safety of two of the
railroad bridges between Scandals and
Fairchnncc is endangered.

steadily since last midnight raised the
water in the river and crock to the highest
point since 18m. The river stands now at
14 feet 9 nine inches, a rise of six fact since
10 a. m. Reports from all points up the
river say it is from liver to eight inches
higher. and it is expected that it will be at
least five feet higher here. On account of
washouts no railroad communications can

Dr. Barrett fell with a bullet in his breast.
The supposed dying man had suddenly
pulled a revolver and tired point blank at
the priest. A series of wild shrieks on the

Wasnixoros, May 3i.—Lcnf tobacco deal-
ers will labor hard with the senate mncern~
ing one provision of the McKinley bill. Tb-
bill repeals the provisions of the existing
law, which limits the sale of leaf tobacco
to licensed dealers or manufacturers. If
the senate agrees to the repeal of this clause
the manufacturer of smoking tobacco, it is
claimed, will be brought into competition
with the farmer. whose leaf “unmsnufac-
tuned," which pays no tax. will be almost
as saleable from the shelf of the retail deni-
cras the manufactured smoking tobacco,
which will have a discrimination of eight
cents on every pound against it. The to
bacco manufacturers have been notified of
the situation. and they will use every effort
to have the duty kept at four cents on the
proposition to repeal the administration
clause chctcd by the senate.
