Beneath tho Ruins, but No Fatalities
Reported-One Town Entirely Obliter-
eted-Great Damage in indianapolis.
MEMPHIS, March "a A-Scattering reports
coming to Memphis from points in west
Tennessee and north Mississippi indicate
that terrific cyclone whirled up the
mississippi valley from the southwest yes
terday afternoon, crushing and sweeping
away everything in its path. Telegraph
wires III every direction were twisted into
tangles and communication with the storm
swept localities is exceedingly difficult and
unsatisfactory
Trains from the east reaching the city
bring reports Of widespread destruction
Passengers on the Yazoo and Mississippi
Valley train told of the destruction of
Tunica, Miss. The Birmingham train due
in Memphis at $3.50 o'clock last night could
not get to Memphis until after o'clock
men being compelled to chop and throw
trees OFF the track between here and Kelly,
which is about thirteen miles from Mem
phis.
The swath of the storm as it crossed
Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham
road seemed to embrace territory between
Coopersville and Olive branch. Dozens of
houses, huge trees and barns were razed to
the ground by the violence of the storm.
The damage at Tunic. 1t is said, was great
At $3.50 the sky in the southwest began
to darken inkily, and low wailing sound
announced storm. Within few minutes
The wind came along with terrible velocity
and with swish and swirl that por-
tended danger. The first blow gave way
20 the cyclone, and houses were crushed
like egg shells.
The ruthless visitor fingered over the
town scarcely two minutes and yet in that
time the greater part of the town was
destroyed. The Knights Of Pythias and
Masonic hall is now a heap of timber.
The roof of the court house was carried
away. When the storm subsidized cries and
groans were heard from the colored school
house, where 150 children had been gath
cred at their lessons.
The building, a two story frame, had
been blown down and beneath the ruins
was mass of struggling children So far
. known no one was killed, but many
were MANNED and bruised, some with
broken arms and some with fractured
akulls.
The full extent of the damage Is not
known, but the loss to property will go
into the hundreds of thousands. Trainmen
In Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham
report that Kelly, Miss, was wiped Off
the face of the earth, not soul being left
