ton Of the walls of the third and fourth
stories. The south wall, at the east end.
was blown into the street and Deputy
Sheriff Dougherty was caught and killed.
All the others succeeded in getting out of
the building alive. The jail is located in
the basement of the building and that
portion escaped injury. The prisoners
were alarmed, but became quiet when the
crash had passed and they found them
selves unhurt. Judge Slower had been
holding court on the thir floor and had
adjourned Just before the storm descended
A portion of the roof in falling struck
the chair the judge had vacated.
Across the street, on the northwest cor
ner of Second and Main streets, stood a
two story brick building, erected in 1860
by the Santa Fe Stage company, one OF
the Oldest buildings in the city, from
which stages for the South were started
across the plains in stage days. The
building has of late years been occupied
by United States engineers. Adjoining
that on the west was a three story brick
coffee and spice mill, owned by Smith x
Molfatt, This building was demolished,
a.ling over upon the adjoining one. and
both were completely wrecked. Frank
Smith, senior partner of the firm, was
taken bleeding from the ruins and died in
a short time. Mr., Moffat was badly hurt
and three employees were taken out. The
debris is being removed tonight in the
search for any who may yet be buried be-
meath. The second span from the north
end of the bridge across the Missouri
river. opposite the city. was blown into
the river, the piers being left apparently
uninjurad. A great number of telegraph
wires were carried down with the broken
span. Workmen are busy to night rails
ing the wires from the wreck, and it is
hoped communication in that direction
will be restored by to morrow morning.
The bridge is owned by the Hannibal 4
St. Joseph company, aud is used by that
road and the Wabash, Rock Island and
Kansas City, St. Joseph 4 Council Bluffs.
The bridge owners say they expect to re
pair it in about ten days.
