to the house for treatment
A tour of the stricken village revealed she
fact that no less than twenty-five persons
had been instantly killed, and whose bodies
were recovered from the mass of ruins.
They were as follows:
JOHN RENARD county auditor.
GREGG LINDLEY. register of deeds.
EDWARD HALL. banker Of St. Cloud.
GERTRUDE G. FLETCHER visiting refs
tives.
S. P. CARPENTER and two children.
Mrs. FRINK and four children.
CARRIE SMART, domestic at Mrs. Woods
HERMAN BEAGH'S two children.
Mrs. DEVIE E. ALBRIGHT.
A. w. LAKE.
Mr.. SCHUYLER
Mrs SEVERSON.
Mr.. PAPENFUS. wife and two children
Child Of ABNER ST. AYR
There are several of the wounded who
will doubtless die. There are many persons
too who are missing and who are supposed
to be beneath the deadly ruins and it would
not be surprising if the list Of dead would
reach thirty OF thirty-6ve. The third
of S. P. Carpenters children is MORALLY
wounded The child is eleven years of age.
and had large splinter driven through the
body. Mr.. Hurlburt, travelling agent OF
New York, at IL o'clock tonight was lying
In an insensible condition in the Beatty
house. He was riding with Mr. Hull, the
dead banker. when the latter was
killed Mr.. Hurlbert's injuries are
about the heod and face, his arms badly in
jured, and his physicians expect that he can
not possibly survive until morning. The
prevalence of terrible storm made the
work of looking for the dead ana
wounded all the more trying,
and the storm finally became so severe that
the grief-stricken, sad searchers had to
abandon their task, and the physi-
clans of St Cloud, although hay-
ing more than they could possibly
attend to in their own afflicted city, nobly
divided themselves. and several of them
hurriedly drove 10 the scenes OF still greater
horrors in the opposite side of the river
Their services were most certainly needed
for there were the wounded and the dying
who needed prompt and intelligent treat
ment Doctors Jordan, Giddings and Dun
ham of Anoka were also early on the scene
A later dispatch announces the death of Mr.
Hubert.
