WIND AND RAIN.

Much Damage Done I'm Various Sections OF
Missouri-Wreck of 3 Circus Tent at
SedaIia.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May ga terrific
wind storm swept large section of
northern Missouri yesterday afternoon
and evening, destroying much property
and causing loss of life. Reports from
the localities where the wind is said to
have done its worst are meager, the
wires being down. All the wires on the
Missouri Pacific and Wabash railways
between Kansas City and ST. Louis and
all but one wire on the Chicago & Alton
between Armstrong and Mexico were
blown down. There were heavy rains
outside of the storm belt extending
over nearly all of Missouri and Kansas
The area most severely swept by the
storm extends from the Missouri river
near Jefferson City to point about a
hundred miles north, having width
varying from sixty to 125 miles. Con-
siderable damage is reported at Pacific,
near Jefferson City, but details could
not be secured last night.
The telegraph operator at Huntsville,
Mo-, was sending message to this city
stating that six houses had just blown
down in view of the depot when sud-
denly communication was CUT OH DIV Inc
blowing down of the wires and no
further news from that point could be
obtained.
Heavy storms, involving much dam
age to property, are reported from Mo-
berly and Centralia, and the town of
Ladonia is said to have been entirely
swept away. In the vicinity of Mexico,
Mo-, the country was deluged with rain
and the storm ragged from o'clock I'M
til late last night. 1t was reported
from that place that Henry McCue, a
farmer living eight miles north of
Mexico, was killed by his barn being
blown upon him. Buildings at Mexico
were unroofed and lifted from their
foundations, and the storm was so Sc
we're at the time particulars began to
each this city, about IL o'clock last
night, that few people had ventured
forth to ascertain the extent of the
damage
At Sedalia Ringing Bros circus tent
was wrecked while fully 1000 people
| were under it. Many were injured,
but fortunately none fatally.
At Moberly there was regular
cloudburst. At the fair grounds the
amphitheater, floral hall and other
buildings were wrecked and trees and
telegraph poles scattered in every Dir
rection.

verified as discovery such as the one

bringing the eastern end of Rio Blanco
to the notice of capitalists.
