The track of the storm was from two to fifteen miles wide and 40 or 50 miles in length.

At times the wind shifted so that the storm almost doubled on its tracks, which accounts for the great variation in width. No loss of life is yet reported although many had narrow escapes.

He says that despite the 18- tional sympathies there is a profound ignorance in England and the United States respecting each others constitution. He admits his own ignorance at the beginning of the American civil war in sympathizing with the South. He says the sympathy of the Americans for the Irish in their present struggle arises from the error of thinking of Ireland as an American state, aud that the English are withholding from Ireland powers similar to those possessed by the different ates of the American Union. says the duke, could be more erronious than this idea." Referring to the right of each of the United States to a due share of the general powers of congress and to the checks in its power of self-government which each state allows, he sars: "Mr. Gladstone's proposal violates both these principles, for the corrupt and IMMORAL BARGAIN banishes Ireland from the imperial councils and surrenders the minority entirely in the hands of the local majority.

Auericans will perhaps hardly believe this, but it is strictly true, The pretended limitations and restraints against local tyranny are quite illusory." The duke then appeals to Americans to clearly understand the Unionist constitution, namely, that it has been for Ireland's sake solely that the Unionists have given opposition to Mr. Gladstone's Irish scheme. letter concludes as follows: -It is the Unionists, and not the members of the government. who are fighting for the liberties of the Irish people. Even if Mr.

Parnell were immortal, or if his party represented a far larger numerous majority of the Irish people than it really does, neither he nor they would have a right to dispose of the constitutional rights of Ireland. We do not desire to see Ireland redneed to the condition of being but a tributary province, and banished from the imperial councus.

DISPATCH TO THE TRIBUNE.L Irswien, July 12. -The hot winds and dry weather have injured the crops in Edmunds county to a certain extent, but not near as much as at first reported. The stony parts of the county seem to have suffered very little, the stones nppearing to hoid the moisture. It has rained some the past week, and it is a fair estimation to place the average yield at three-fourths full crop, but even this means a much larger than the average yield of a full crop of small grain 111 Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa, -Last spring the county commissioners of this county refused to grant liceuse to liquor dealers. There are, however.

12 saloons in operation in full the county, all running open and doing a large business. Last week while the commissioners were in session here a petition claimed to contain seven -eighths of the voters of the county was presented to the board, asking it to grant license.

ESPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE TRIBUNE. I DES MOINES, Iowa. July resting spells ench hour Manager Weaver proceeded with the today, completing It just before 6 argument o'clock. It was a masterly array of authorities, and aply applied to the case in hand. Weaver has laboring hard a tedious trial and has shown tireless energy.

He came here in January friendly to Brown, and allowing for this has fought for ways in the ease. He dectined today to sustain Sherman's course, when the later, when he got Brown out, resolved to make it permanent. A little tilt took place between him and Nourse, with honors ensy. Some senators tonight want an executive session tomorrow, but it is very doubtful if they will succeed either in this or in their other desire, to close the doors when balloting begins. It is believed final ndjournment will be had Wednesday night.

Dunnell received 80 and White and Seavely, jointly, 169. There were many votes cast for White and Senvely by boys under age, and many Democrats seem to take a great interest by boldly voting for the political enemies of Mr. Dunnell. In Mantorsville precinct caucus the vote was evenly divided between Dunnell, White and Seavely. Several towns in the county do not hold their primary meetings until the first of the week.

Thus far in this county the forces of White and Seavely are pooling their issues and are making a united warfare against Dunnell- The hay crop in this county is about secured and is in good condition. -The barley begins to turn yellow and will be ready for the sickle in a few days. -The county convention will be held at Mantorvillie July 15.

I SIOUX FALLS, July third and probably last session of Dakota's second constitutional convention adjourned over from May 6, reassembles here tomorrow. The main proposition to be entertained and decided is that of repealing the restraining clause of the constitution.

The Chicago Debate Absorbs Attention in Railway Circles. The Plans of Messrs. Cable and Potter Are Closely Scanned. E. St.

John Is Assistant General Manager of the Rock Island. Poo-Bah Harrison's Plan--An Old Map-Phil's PartnerSparks. CHICAGO, July -Mayor Harrison tonight presented a message to the city council practically vetoing the ordinance passed a week ago, giving the North Side railway company the use of the LaSalle street tunnel, and contrary to the general expectation, no attempt was made to pass it over hie head. The mayor's veto takes the form of an ordinance to take the place of the one passed a week ago. This, after being read, was ordered Pr printed, and will be considered at a meet1ng of the council one week from tonight.

The mayor's ordinance is much less favorable to the railway company than the other. The one already passed asks for the tunnel franchise, $20,0.0 a year, from which is to be deducted sums for various stated improvements, lights. which in the estimation of experts will cut down the annual rental to a riciculously low figure, The mavors ordinance demands a net annual rental of $25,000, all improvements to be paid for by the company. The ordinance offers two alternatives. If the company builds at Clark street a double steel tracked steam turning bridge so constructed as to be acceptable to the city its annual rental for the tunnel shall therefore be 810.000.

If the company builds another similar bridge at Wells street, the tunnel franchise shall be considered paid in full, the payment of the annual rental ceasing with the acceptance of the bridges. As to the improvements in the tunnel for the benefit of pedestrians and teams demanded in the first ordinance they are still required in the second. The fact that the council did not attempt to pass the first ordinance over the mayor's veto is considered an indication that the railway company's henchmen discovered themselves too wenk, or that for some reason the mayor's scheme struck the body favorably. An Old Tine Map. The Railway Register has looking over a railroad map of the United States issued in 1834 and it notes some of the curious differences between now and then as follows: "In Indiana, the Louisville, New Albany Chieago.

then the New Albany Salem, was finished. The Evansville Terra Haute, the Indiana Central, the Peru Indiauapolis, the Jeffersonville, the Lafayette Indianapolis, the Indianapolis, Cincinnati Lafayette, parts of the Pan Handle and the Michigan Indiana; now the Lake Shore, and the Michigan Central crossed the northern part of the state. In Illinois the Chicago Mississippi, now the Alton, and the Terre Haute Alton were in operntion from Alton to Chicago and Terre Haute respectively. The Galena Chicago, Galena Air Line, and Central Military Tract Railway, the latter now a part of the Rock Island, and one or two short ronds were finished. The Illinois Central was partially completed.

South of the Alton Terre Haute the Atlantic Mississippi, occupying the present location of the Vandalia, and the Onto de Mississippi, were projected but not built. In Michigan the Michigan Central and the Michigan Southern, together with a short line from Detroit to Pontine, were the only railways. In Wisconsin there was nothing. In the Southern states there were only a few roads. In Mississippi the single one was a line connecting Vicksburg and Jackson, in Kentucky the Kentucky Central was opened between Louisville and Lexington, and in Florida a little road ran between Tallanassee and the coast.

In Texas and Arkansas not mile was in operation West of the Mississippi not a mile of road was in operation although many were projected. Chief among the latter were the Pacitie railways, three in number. The northern route was to commence at Chicago, cross the Missouri at Council Bluff's and pass through the South, Pass and Salt Lake City to San Francisco. The middle route was to begin at St. Louis and reach the Pacific coast at San Francisco by way of Independence, Conneil Grove, Kansas, Pueblo, then in the Indian Terrory, the Arkansas Valley and the southern border of Utah.

The southern route was to begin at Vicksbuurg. Miss. extend due west, through Sbreveport and El Paso to San Diego. The distance to be 2,850 miles by the Northern, 2,790 by the Central and 2,85) by the Southern. At that time in Missouri the Hannibal St.

Joseph was blocked ont to the Missouri river, and so was the Missouri River. The southwest brauch of the Pacific was projected down to the corner of the state, and the Iron Mountain road to Pilot Knob. Iowa was attracting attention because of the excellence of its soil, but only the river countles had much population. The Lons Missouri railway was projected from Lyons across the state to Council Bluff's, via Des Moines and Iowa City, and the Council Bluff's railroad was located between Davenport and the Des Molues river, near Oska- loosa. Finished.

DENVER, July -The property of the Den ver Rio Grand Railroad Company was sold today at 12 o'clock, by Louis I. Meyer and John R. Stewart, trustees of the consolidated mortgage, who had been appointed special commissioners by Judge Hallett, of the United States circuit court by decree entered 011 May 5, last, The property was purchased by George Coppell, Arnold Marcus, Robert B. Minturn, Theodore H. A.

Trom pe and John J. Hodiger, a purchasing committee acting under what has been known as "Coppell reorgani. zation" for $15,000,000. This bid was in reality nominal as the property way purchased for the benefit of bondholders and stockholders who came in under the plan of reorganization. Less than ditty thousand consolidated mortgage bonds, $100,000 general mortgage bonds and 5,000 shares of stock are now out-tanding.

The property will at once be reorganized under the name of the Denver Rio Grande Itallroad company, and Wm. I. Jackson the receiver, will be made the first president. The company went into default upon coupons falling due on the first day of July, 1834, and bill for the appointment of a receiver was filed July 12 of the same year, so that the foreclosure has been carried through and the sale made exactly two years from the date of the original appointment of a receiver. Under the plan of reorganization the fixed charges will be reduced to per cent 011 the new consolidated mortgnge bonds, and will be brought largely within the net earnings of 1885 which have already been considerably exceeded in the corresponding months of the present year.

No receivers certificates have been Issued and the present indebtedness of receiver is understood to be more than covered by the cash assets in his bands. A Mountain in Labor. CHICAGO, July -The all subject of consideration 111 railway circles today was the solution of the western freight and passenger troubles, which are to be considered at another large meeting tomorrow. Opinions are divided as to the advantages of the plan offered by Mr. Potter last week and the suggestions for series of grOSS money pools prepared by Mr.

Cable, The principal objections made to Mr. Cable's proposition came from the Burlington, Hannibal St. Joseph and Kansas City, St. Joseph and Connell Bluff's roads. The last named road will not go into any pool unless paid $10.000 due it from the Eastern freight Association.

The Burlington fears that Cable's plan is beyond the strength of the Western roads, It is not expected that any definite result will be reached tomor- row. Backs Up Partner Phil. John M. Plankington, partner of Phil Armour, the Chicago pork king, is in the East. When asked about the Chicago, Milwaukee St.

Paul railroad, of which he is a director and one of its chief promoters, he said: road is in excellent shape and we are not going to stop this side or the Pacific.
