BROKEN ELECTRIC WIRES. IN BALTIMORE COUNTY. The Storm in Several Places Behaved Like aTornadj County Fire-Alarm System Wrecked. In every section of Baltimore county the wind created terrible bavoo and did damage estimated at many thousands of dollars. It blew with even more terrific force than the forty-five mile velocity recorded at the Baltimore weather bureau aud everywhere left behind it a track oT destruction.

The fertile hilltops caught the brunt ot its onward rush, but down between the hills it also swept with violence. In several neighborhoods the cyclone took on the character or a tornado. Black clouds massed themselves close to the ground, and with a serpentine movement rushed over the country, sucking ud into the skies vast quantities of material, demolishing and unroofing houses and barns. Such a local tornado swept wjth violence along a narrow path from Cockeysville to Lake Roland, bounded on tbe side by the Northern Central Railroad tracks and on the other by the York road. The roads in many sections were literally strewn with trees, and persons who used the roads early yesterday morniug were obliged to cut tbeir way through the debris.

Trees that have withstood the storms of half a century succumbed to tbe force of the winds as If mere saplings. Fire Marshal James B. Finnan, of Balti-timore county, reported yesterday that the entire fire-alarm telegraph system or the county had been wrecked. Lane trees were blown across the wires and a number or tho boxes were burned out by the wires coming in contact with the wires of tbo electrio light lines. There were twenty-five breaks in the wires between Canton and Govanstown.

and other circuits of the line were as badly damaged. The marshal started out early yesterday morning with a force of men to repair the wires, but does not expct to have them in working order for several days. Fire Marshall Finnan bad a remarkable experience on his way to his borne, near Lake Station, during the storm. He left Baltimore at 11.80 P. M.

on the Northern Central Railroad, and before Lake Station was reached the train was stopped a number of times for the crew to clear the track of fallen trees. After the marshal got out at Lake Station the storm was at its height. Huge tree9 were blown down on both sides of the railroad. The intense darkness made walkinir bad. and several times tbe marshal lost bis way.

He had to keep his umbrella in front of him to keep from running- into trees and several times narrowly escaped being struck by broken limbs. He said he beoame so anxious that be ran nearly all the way to his home. When he arrived there the noise made by the storm was so great that his family could not hear him knocking and he had to break the door open. The marshal said he had traveled through the West and been caught in a number of storms there, but none of them was as severe as the one Tuesday nigbt. BURIED UNDER BRICKS.

An TJnknown Tramp Kilted by a Limekiln Chimney Blowing Over at Texas. The only death in Maryland from the storm occurred at Texas, Baltimore county. Tbe victim is an unknown tramp, who was crushed by tbe collapse of one of the chimneys of the limekiln of Mr. Frank M. Lee, a quarter of a mile above Texas.

Ahout 7 o'clock Tuesday night the man had walked into the limekiln and asked per-misson to dry his clothing. It was not an unusual request, for tramps often ask the same privilege at the and are rarely denied. Foreman Conrad Seeburger gave the man a board and be stretched himself upon it near the kiln, which was then in full blast. Once or twice he was obliged to move because of tbe increasing intensity of the heat of the furnace. The man had said he was not well, and had been advised by employes of tbe kiln, before be went to sleep, to go to a hospital.

He replied he would do so as soon as he reached Baltimore. The first visitor had scarcely fallen asleep, when two other tramps, attracted by the glow of the furnace, peered in, and they too were given hard boards near the tire, where they could dry their rain-soaked clothing. The three men were all of tbem asleeD when a came about half-past 11 o'clock. The east chimney, a huge, towering brick concern, tottered and fell. Tho first tramp was crushed by falling bricks and debris and was instantly kilied.

The other two were injured, one having three ribs on his left side broken and the her receiving a severe contusion on the right eye. The employes of thf kiin were not aware of the approach of the storm and went on with their work as usual. Patrick Keough and William McXicbolas. who do the firing for the two furnaces, then in full blast, stepped into the yard to secure fuel for the furnaces and while there the whirlwind came. Had they en near their furnaces, both wouid have been buried beneath the falliug chimney.

As soon as the collapse of the chimneys was known, Mr. Conrad Seeourger. tbe foremun, who had returned to his home, was sent for and everrbody was set to work to dig out the imprisoned men. When this had been done, tbe dead bodr and the two injured men were sent to the BaLimore county almshouse, about a half a miio distant. Dr.

B. F. Bussey was summoned and dressed the wounds of the two injured men. Tbe tramp who whs killed was about thirty-five years old. He is attired in a black coat and vest, light trousers and white shirt and a brown alpine hat.

He wore no eard.J There were no papers to indicate positively tbe identity of the dead man On tho wrist of bis left arm were tatooed tbe letters 'T. or and beneath them the outlines of a woman's profile. In the debris in which the body was found Mr. Andrew Keough discovered an envelope and a letter. Whether they belong to tho dead man or not is not known.

Upon the front of the envelope Is the address: "Henry Newcorn. H9 Park Row, New York." Tbe postmark is Newark, N. J. Tne date of posting Is obliterated. The other paper found is much worn.

It is an agreement between two persons to sell mea-s. poultry and game ac some place not designated. Hood Tilton is signer for "first part" and E. S. Cunningham for "the second part." At noon yesteaday a coroner's Jury attributed the death of the unknown dead man to accident.

The members of tbiB j'iry were Charles R. Bussey. foreman; Patrick Connor, Conrad Seeburger, Wrn. Gilraore. Eli Poe.

George Wordin. isamuel Doll, Thomas Murray. Thomas Murray, Thomas Dal-ton, John McGlunUs and Harry Shipley. The Inquest was held at the almshouse, and there the body was held. If not claimed it will be buried by the county.

The two tramDS who had such a narrow escape from death are in tbe hospital ward of the almshouse. They gave their names as Patrick Smith and John Martin. Both say tbey are natives of Ireland. Smith told bis story yesterday as follows: "My partner and myself," pointing to Martin on an adjoining cot, "met two weeks ago at Bayonne, N. J.

We were both out of work. We bad beard about dredging in tbe Chesapeake bay, and so we started for Baltimore by way or York. while walking along the railroad track It began to rain and we were drenched to the gkiu. At night we saw a bright light, and on approaching it found it was a lime kilo. We went In and asked for lodgings and were accommodated.

The storm came up while we were asleep." IN ANDTBOUT TOWSON. Prisoners at the County Jail Frightened by the ICoof Blowing Off-Trees Slowed Down. At Towson marks or tbe storm were every where conspicuous, though no very serious damage was reported.

The storm -which swept over Baltimore at a late hour Tuesday night extended all alcnsr the Atlantic coast aad caused loss of life at sea and on land, together with widespread damages to properly. It was a West India cyclone of remarkable energy, which first made its appearance southeast ot Cuba on Saturday last. On Monday its centre reached Florida and on Tuesday had advanced as far as Georgia.

Then came a sudden forward rush, and in less than lourteea hours the central ponit of the storm had leaped from Georgia to Baltimore, developing force as It moved rapidly northward. After selling Baltimore with a grip as firm as any etorai of recent years has had upon the city.it relinquished its hold after a few hours of violent wind movements, and by 8 o'clock vesterdar morning was central over Southern Michigan, having made a sweeo of the United States from north to south in twenty-four hours. In this city the extreme velocity of the wind was forty-five miles an hour. Hurricanes from the West Indies are by no means uncommon in the fail months, but as a rule they do not develop such remarkable energy oa land as on sea. This last storm took an inward curve as it came up the const, and instead of confining its destructive force to tbe waters it spread over the Southern and Central Atlantic States a wide area of low barometers and high winds.

Capt. George E. Hunt, local forecast official for Baltimore, regards the storm as the "equinoticul," a few days overdue. In September of each year the cooling cf the atmosphere by the approach of long nights causes the transfer of great masses of cooler air to tbe southward and produces atmospheric disturbances there which result in hurricanes of tbe kind which has just passed.

IN BALTIMORE CITY. Dangerous Situation of Many Persons from Flying Debris and Exposure to the Tempest. The extent to which Baltimore city was in tbe grip of the storm on Tuesday night was very clearly indicated in The Sun of yesterday. Very few persons passed tbe night without worry because of the manuer in which tho winds had raged around their homes. Thirty-six miles an hour the wind blew for an hour or two before midnight, and at one time it reached a velocity of forty-flve miles.

Many persons were in danger from the fierceness of the storm and the manner in which timbers and bricks were being burled about them or thrown aganist their dwellings. Others were in danger from the flood of water which backed up into the street around tbe harbor. The wind struck the machine shop of William Matthisss, 2112 Frederick avenue, with terriflj force, knocking the rear and side walls into the yard ot the Lion Brewery, which adjoins it on the Calver on road, and demolished much of the brewery property. Scantling, bricks and joists were sent flying through tbe air. One of these Joists crashed through the side wall of 3125 Calverton road, the home of Mr.

'Henry Biemiller, manager of the brewery. Saw the Wall Fall In on Her. Mrs. Liuisa H. Smith, an aged lady, had retired a short time before tbe storm to a room on tbe second floor at Mr.

Biemiiler's. She had not been in bed long before she saw the wall at the foot of her bed fall In against the footboard with a crash. Sleeping in an adjoining room were Mrs. Biemiller aud a young child. Becoming frightened at the noise, Mrs.

Biemiller hastened to the room of ber husband, which Is In tbe front of the bouse. He bad also beard the crash, and together they went to protect their child against danger and then to assist Mrs. Smith, who was hemmed in her room. Mr. Biemiller finally suoceeded in extricating Mrs.

Smith from her perilous position and took her to another room in the bouse. The old lady was painfully bruised about the shoulders, body and legs, and Mr. Biemiller sustained a gash on the left leg. Mr. Biemiller places his loss at $500.

Dorsey, of 2020 Lanvale street, were startled in such an abrupt manner by the storm tbat tbey moved out of their bouse, and spent the remainder of the night in a vac nit dwelling at 1812 Lafayette avenue. The first intimation thev had of tbe storm was a shower or bricks from a chimney on the top of the houso. The bricks were whirled about madly by tbe wind, smashing shutters and windows. After the chimney the roof went off. and then Mr.

Dorsey thought it was time to move. With some assistance from neighbors ho managed to move furniture enough inio the vacant house to make it teuantable until daylight. Took Four Roofs at Once.

People Shocked, Horse and Mule Killed, Fires Started and Houses Charged with the Current. One feature of the windstorm which made it especially dangerous was the large number of accidents in every quarter of the city to electric light wires and other overhead wires. Live wires daugled over the sidewalks and streets, arc lights were burned out, converters destroyed and deadly currents transferred to other conductors of electricity with which the wires came into contact.

Linemen of the electric light, telegraph and telephone companies were busily engaged in repairing the damages all day yesterday, removing dangerous wires, replacing the apparatus burned and injuring tho vicinity of the wires from further danger ot fire until another storm disarranges them as badly as did tbat of Tuesday night. Driven from Home by Electricity. The families of Dr. G. R.

Graham, of 725 Columbia avenue, of Mr. Samuel Davis. 723 Columbia avenue, and of Dr. I. H.

Elderdice, of 721 Columbia avenue, had a thrilling experience with electricity. A McKinley banner had been stretched across from the house of Dr. Graham to the bouse of Mr. Wm. Weikel, at 726 Columbia avenue.

Tbe wind blew the wire cable that supported tbe banner against the electrio light wires, when it was burned in two and fell. The current ran along the cable to the house of Dr. Graham and thenoe to the adjoining houses. A series of flashes occurred in Dr. Graham's house, while in the house of Mr.

Weikel the gas pipes and rain spouting were charged, and every room in tbe house was lit up with electricity. In tho house of Dr. Elderdice the rooms were similarly illuminated, and the bathroom was Tull of flames. Word was sent to No. 10 engine company, but when tbe firemen arrived the light had disappeared.

The pipes leading to tbe bathtub, the spouting about the house and the wasto pipes were found to be filled with small holes where the current had burned them. Tbe excitement was Intense for some moments, and tbo three families took refuge in the street. Horse Shocked to Death. A horse belonging tc A. Revilie, 9 South Strieker street, was instantly killed at the corner of Edmondson avenue and Appleton street at 2.10 o'clock yesterday morning by being driven against a livJ electrio wire by Mr.

James Doyle, of 119 North Fulton avenue. All the lights along that part of Edmondson avenue were out, and it was so dark that neither Mr. Doyje nor the horse saw the wire. Tbe horse dropped as soon as it came in contact with the wire, and Mr. Doyle, in trying to find out what had happened to the animal, had a very narrow escape from the same fate.
