WIDESPREAD
DESTRUCTION.
Later Storm intelligence.
The Town Of Rosebud a Grea er Slf-
ferer than at First Reported.
1t Has Appealed for Outside Help
Railroad Service and Telegraph
Wires Seriously Crippled.

REDBuD, ILL.,. Nov. 1S.-The cyclone
which passed over this town yesterday
did much more damage than was at first
supposed. One portion of the city was
completely demolished. In this quarter
ninety-three buildings were totally
wrecked. three persons were killed and
twenty were more or less seriously
wounded. The loss of property is pretty
hard at this time to estimate, but it will
foot up to at least $4,000. 1t was one
of the worst storms that ever passed over
the state. The scene following the dis
aster was one of utter ruin and destruc-
ton. The country was strewn with de
bris of all kinds, trees which had been
torn up by the roots and carried hun
dreds of feet away. houses raised from the
ground and scattered over acres of land,
household goods and wreckage OF all
description were streWn and mixed in
an unrecognizable mass.
The work of ~rescuing the wounded
and taking the dead from the ruins be-
gan Immediately after the storm ceased.
The work was hindered by the inky
darkness and could only progress under
momentary flashes of lightning. 1t is
feared some of the injured will yet die.
In many cases the people were left
unhurt in their beds. while their homes
were blown half a mile away. One third
of the people Of Redbud did not hear the
storm and rested quietly in bed until
dawn. Had the tornado's track been 300
feet further north the business portion
of the town would have been destroyed.
The mayor convened the council and
the citizens called a meeting and relief
sistance from the public.
1t is believed that Redbud, which has
tress from elsewhere. will not be forgot
ten. Contributions forwarded to the
mayor will be placed in good hands.

The cause Of the trouble is the storm.
amounting to a cyclone at many points,
which had irs origin in Redbud, Ill.,. yes
t6rday. The opposing forces of winter
and summer net in that remote town of
southern Illinois. and from the clash that
cnsued there resulted at least three dis
tinct cyclunic storms. one going due
northeast, another southeast. and a third
almost due west into Nebraska. Not
only was the storm marked by severe
wind, but also by sIeet and d heavy wet
snow, the features that telegraph
operators have by experience more
learned TO fear. SO great was the

The storm is reported at Omaha today.
The storm played havoc with trains as

This morning there were no wires be
