Sr. LOUIS, June 4.-There have been
just So miles Of streets INSTRUCTED BY
the debris as result Of the tornado.
All Of these streets have been made
passable and viii be cleaned up In 10
days. In the city there are $50 miles Of
improved streets so IL can be seen TO
what extent the tornado interrupted the
traffic. The storm district on its out
side lines extended from the river On
the east 10 Tower Grove avenue ON the
west and Olive street ON the north to
Lynch street on the south. This COM
prisos an area Of six square miles. The
extrome limits were three miles east and
west and two miles north and south.
An adequate idea Of the damage can
be formed when IL is stated that II all
the houses damaged and blown down
were on both sides Of one street that the
street would BE- just IS miles long. Tho
figure is given by the street commits
sioner, who has been through the On.
tire district, and from the reports Of his
general superintendent who has cut
roadway through the s. miles of
streets.
m addition TO this there were were
many more streets INSTRUCTED by wires
and the like which are not counted in
the total.
No additional bodies have been re.
covered from the ruins Of the tornado
stricken district in 81, Louis for tine past

Il is feared that a large number Of
people now reported missing from East
st. Louis have found wAtery graves.
In the light Of recent developments IL
seems these fears are not unfoundcd,
for in the past two days two bodies were
recovered from the river Il is supposed
they were blown into the water.
In addition to this, large number Of
Of horses and other animals have been
found in the debris along the banks.
A number Of these horses were fully
harnessed, and as the storm occurred |
when the river front was crowded with |
teams, going to and from ST. Louis with |
the last load Of the day, Il is thought a
number Of drivers may also have been
swept into the stream. There isno way
10 fully determine the number missing. |
The relief committee have only tho
names Of who have been inquired about |
by letter or telegram and no reports Of |
the missing have been made at police
headquarters. Therefore the exact |
lumber is not known and while Il Il
thought all the dead have been /
taken from the wrecked buildings, Il is
expected the death list will be swelled |
when the river gives up Ia |
victims.
Up to date the missing number 20 in
East 81. Louis.
Burial permits for 1902 have been |
issued one inquest for when no permit |
was issued and there has been two add. |
itonanl bodies found
The injured In hospitals number a. Of |
which seven cannot live.
