Colonel McGlincy, His Wife, Son and Daugh-

at Campbell.
HORRID DEED OF BUTCHERY
In Cory Reve1, James C. Dunham Gluts HIS
Savage Passion-Death-Strug
With Demon.

SAN JOSE, CAL, May 27.-Santa Clara
County has hitherto stood aloof and read
with shuddering wonder the stories of
murder and blood and crime that came to
her from distances that robbed them of
much of their realism. The slaughter of
the family and servants of Colonel r. P.
McGlincy-six people-at Campbell, six
miles south of this place, at an early hour
this morning, places bloody page in her
own history as horrible as any she has read.
The murders mmitted by James Dun
ham, 30 years of age, a son-in-law of
Colonel McGlincy, wipes most out of ex-
istence one of the prominent families of
the county. All that is left of the line is
baby, son of the murderer.
No discernible motive explains the
awful crime. The man was not in high
esteem with Colonel McGlincy, and there
had been quarrels between husband and
wife, but the young man was being well
taken care OF, being allowed to attend
school, to lead an easy life, with a GER
tainty of being well-cared Tor to the end
Madness alone explains it, but all who
know him have hitherto rated him as very
sane. The characteristic that had been
noted in him chiefly was meanness, penu-
riousness- The woman who stood by the
bedside of his wife during the time that
the child was born and afterward, said he

from his wagon in the vicinity and in
stantly killed.
The middle span of the roadway above
the railroad tracks on the Eads bridge was
blown completely away.
The Armory, at Seventeenth and Pine
streets, is being used as temporary hos
pital.
At 1880 P NJ. the rain, which had ceased
for time, began afresh and fell in tor
rents.
at o'clock the eastern sky was aglow
with the light of fires in East st. Louis.
East st. Louis suffered probably the
greatest. Messengers came at 7 P. NJ. from
there asking for physicians and nurses.
The steamer D. E. Pike, with thirty pas
sengers on board bound for Peoria, was
blown bottom side up in the middle of the
river and number of persons killed. The
steamer Dauphin, with crew OF six and
twenty lady passengers on board, was
blown against bridge pier and broken in
two. The ladies and two of the crew clung
to the bridge stonework and were res
cued. The steamer Libbie Conger, with
only Captain Seaman, his wife and three
OF crew aboard, went adrift and is sup
posed to be wrecked opposite CsrondeIet.
The Louisville and Nashville eastbound
passenger train had just reached East st.
Louis when the storm struck that city.
The train was overturned, but, miracu-
lously, only few passengers were in
jured. They were taken from the cars by
railroad yardmep. The Chicago and Alton
eastbound local passenger train, which left
st. Louis at 5 o'clock. was on the east side
of the bridge when the wind picked the
cars up and turned them over on their
sides. The iron spans and trusses held the

This is to prevent death to persons COM
| ing in contact with broken wires. Later
reports from the City Hospital state that
only two were killed and six injured as a
result of the roof of that institution being
blown off.
From Soulard street south as far as
Carondelet the wind played havoc with
the residence and business houses in that
territory. The streets are filed with the
wreckage of demolished houses over an
area of fifteen blocks. The number of
bodies already found indicates that the
loss of life in that section will reach at
least thirty.
The body of well-dressed man was
found at Marion street and Park avenue.
Peter Diedrich was killed in the collapse
of big mill at Ninth and Marion streets.
William Ottendale, proprietor of fac
tory at Marion and Eighth streets, and
Benjamin Burgess, an employe, were
killed in the wreckage of the building.
An unknown dead man was found under
the bricks of a fallen chimney at Second
street and Choteau avenue.
Foreman Joseph Carpenter OF the st.
Louis Railing Works on Menard street.
together with his wife and child, was
crushed to death in the collapse of the fac
tory.
The body of an unknown man was
found badly mangled in quarry on De-
soto street.
Alexander Schulinger, dairyman, was
struck by falling tree and killed on
Third and Marion streets.
Fred Watts, aged IL, and his sister,
Theresa, aged 13 years, were found dead in
ruins of their home at 1928 South Ninth
street.
st. PauPs German Evangelical Church
on Ninth street and Lafayette avenue,
Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church on
Eighth street and Lafayette avenue, and
st. Hugo's Catholic Church on Kansas
avenue were totally demolished.
Epstein & Bernsteins wholesale liquor
store at 229 South Broadway collapsed
from the force OF the wind. Julius Marano
was killed and three others seriously in
jured.
The power house of the SculIer line, at
Jefferson street and Geyer avenue, was
totally destroyed and dozen employees
received serious injuries.
The Gem Theater building, on Walnut
street, was badly wrecked by the wind. In
the suburbs dozens of frame houses were
blown down, but up to IL o'clock tonight
no fatalities are reported.
In addition to the river disasters re-
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-05-28

ported later reports add to the losses. All
the wharf boats on both sides were swept
away and sunk. The steamers Medill,
City OF Pittsburg, Belle of Calhoun and
City of Providence were all driven to the
Illinois shore and wrecked. Eleven men
of the vessels crews tried to swim ashore,
but were caught in the eddy of the Pitts
burg dyke and drowned. The river front
is a mass of wreckage. From the Eads
bridge south for two miles every building
is damaged that is not in ruins. The loss
10 shipping is estimated at $400, 900.
Over in East st. Louis the loss of life is
now placed at $50, and the damage to prop
erty exceeds s2.ooO,Ooo. The fire in East
st. Louis was not under control at mid
night. The old building formerly occu-
pied by St. Vincent's Asylum, at Soulard
street, was entirely demolished. In the
collapse of the Sculler Line power house
Frederick Zimmerman, chief electrician,
was killed.
The Liggett & Myers cigarette-factory at
Tower Grove was destroyed, and seven
men engaged in placing in new machinery
were killed. The story that 200 girls are
in the ruins is untrue.
Among the worst disasters in East st.
Louis was the wreck of the Martell House,
of which nothing was left but heap of
ruins. Up to o'clock seven people were
known to have been buried in the ruins,
among them Judge Falk of VandaIia
killed, and Judge Hope seriously injured.
Both are Circuit Judges. Judge Falk has
been holding court in Belleville, trying
what are known as the Viaduct cases.
Among others killed are David Sage. a
well-known real estate man, and his wife.
Their residence on Collinsvllle avenue was
wrecked and both were crushed.
Another building demolished was that
of Philip Strlckler, on the corner of St.
Louis and Collinsville avenues, Mr.. Strick-
Ter, his wife and several children perish
ing in the falling walls. Among other
structures demolished were the National
Hotel at the stockyards, the Clipper
restaurant, the old relay depot and the
