No doubt many other fatalities oc-
Cured, The property loss is very
large.
The latest show that a terrific cy-
clone, much worse than at first re-
ported, passed over the northern parts
of Iowa and southwestern Minnesota
Friday night and that the destruction
to property and loss of life is larger
than at first reported.
The storm evidently assumed q cy.
ClOnic character west of the north cen
trail part of Iowa in Palo Alto or Clay
county, extending eastward through
KOSSuth and Hancock counties, north
east through Cerro Gordo, Worth and
Mitchell counties into Minnesota, con
tinuing through Mower and Olmsted
counties and spending it's force in Wi
mona county without leaving Mime
sofa.
Reports from Iowa show that EN-
metsburg and the surrounding country
suffered severely and that several were
killed and many seriously injured.
Ir Kossuth county many dwellings
We're blown down and two deaths are
reported.
Parts of Hancock county were also
devastated and three deaths are re-
ported near Brett.
North Cerro GordO was struck and
several parties are missing there.
Malby and Plymouth were in the
track of the wind.
Reports of losses also come from
Mitchell county.
Crossing into Minnesota, three people
were killed at LIE Roy, and the whole
eastern part of the town badly dam
aged. A fire about the same time de-
stroyed hotel and three stores.
Lowther, a small town near LIE Roy,
is wiped out of existence.
Spring Valley suffers heavy losses
and three are killed and others fatally
injured.
The storm then appears to have
passed in a northeasterly direction,
crossing the Root river and striking
north of Preston, through the county of
Fillmore, north of Rushford, and into
Winona county, where it struck the
little village of Homer, four miles
south of the city Of Winona on the
Milwaukee river division, destroying
several houses.
