A majority of them have not one board
upon another, but were scattered to the
four winds. The detachment of physicians
from Minneapolis was q boon to survivors of
the ruined city. The corps was organized
under DR.. kilvington, and consisted Of Drs.
Higbee, Freeman; @. D. Allen, Lee, Bunker,
schuley and Miller. The doctors We're met
by n giadened committee near where the
depot formerly stood. They We're escorted
over the ruins of Broadway to the Beatty
hotel, which was one of the very few large
buildings which escaped the wrecking ele-
ment, The hotel was used as q receptacle
for the wounded, and it's inmates were I'M
firing in THEN efforts to ALLEVIATE the suffer
ings of those unfortunates who were brought
to the house for treatment.
a tour of the stricken village revealed the
fact that no less than twenty-five persons
had been instantly killed, and whose bodies
We're recovered from the mass of ruins
They were as follows:

tives.

will doubtless die. There are many persons
too who are missing, and who are supposed
to be beneath the deadly ruins, ana it would
not be surprising if the list of dead would
reach thirty or thirty-fve. The third
of s. P. Carpenters children is mortally
wounded. The child is eleven years of age,
and had a large splinter driven through the
body. Mr.. Hurlburt, travelling agent of
the Mutual Life-Insurance Company 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 n terrible storm made the
WORK OF looking for the dead and
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 hav-
ing more than they could possibly
Intend to in their own afflicted city, nobly
divided themselves. and several of them
hurriedly drove to 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 MIR.
Hubert.

could be ascertained in the confusion were
the following:
