Bringing Order Out of Chaos, While
the Relief Committees Are Getting
Their Work Systematized-
OmcinI Death Lists.
The Stricken City.

ST. LOUIS, June 3.-St. Louis is grad
ually pulling herself together after her
terrible experience with the tornado,
and the work of relief and repair is
being reduced to system as rapidly as
possible.
Months will elapse before the stricken
districts recover fully from the appall-
ing disaster. Probably years will elapse
before all traces of the storm are en-
tirely o~bliteratcd. Time will never be
when some of the surviving sufferers
shall wholly revive from the shock
they received.
To these people the loss of home,
their restitution and their misery are
merely secondary sorrows; their last
ing grief is the loss by violent death
or from fatal injuries of close and
dear relatives and friends. This
great affiiction Will follow them
Through life. No resident of St.
Louis who passed through the gigantic
battle of the elements, and survived
1t, or no one who has viewed the
wrecked sections since their devasta-
ton, will ever forget the scene. There
are'many who will carry to their,graves
evidences of the fearful experiences of
the calamity. Some of the victims have
lost their reason; others have been per-
mancutly crippled and diSliGured. The
loss of property and homes are in
themselves a terrible misfortune, but
they are as naught compared with the
distressing physical deformities which
the tornado has visited upon many of
<he living victims.

Signs of Rapid Recuperation-The Work
of the Relief Committees.

SA6Ao
of the Relief Committees.
ST. LOUIS, June 3.-In our sister city
across the river recuperation has be-
gun. While an apathetic stupor en-
yeloped hundreds of sufferers, the re-
action among those citizens upon whom
depends the city's progress has been
complete and effectual.
Already the corporations which con-
troll the public transportation, COM
munication and lighting facilities have
accomplished almost half the neces-
sary repairs of their plants; new roofs,
windows, doors and walls have been
placed on damaged structures; street
after street has been cleared of wreck
age; store after store has been re-
opened, and pile after pile OF worth
less debris has been burned.
The marvellous work of t&n relief
committees has commenced to show
IS salutary effects. Families who
had abandoned themselves to
desperation have been neryed
to effort; more than 1000 persons
have been saved from starvation,
clothed with necessary wearing APP
parel, and fully $50 shelterless persons,
already suffering the ailments which
accrue from exposure, have been placed
under temporary roofs.
1t is impossible to calculate the re-
suits obtained by the relief corps, but
its members announce that if they are
not afforded the means with which to
continue their work the consequences
will be almost as unfortunate as the
failure of their efforts would have
been.
The death list from the tornado now
foots up 90, four deaths having &C.
Cured since Sunday. Following is a
list of the identified dead:

FASTEST IN THE ROYAL KAVX.
Great Speed and Power Attained During
the Trial Trips of the British
Cruiser Powerful

NEW YORK, N. Y. Dec. GA special
cable dispatch to the Herald from London
says: The British cruiser Powerful, which
quite recently completed her steam trials,
is at the present moment the fastest ship
in the royal navy. and has thus fully
justified the adoption OF wafer tube boil
ers in vessels of large displacement. The
engines OF the Powerful, as also tho of
the Terrible. were designed to produce
90, 600 horsepower. In her final trip. which
was carried out On Novem Der q, her en-
gines developed an average of 25, $50 horse
power for the requisite period of four
hours. For one-third OF the duration of
her trial the power exceeded 26 900 horse
po ger. The wind was strong and the sea
roush, the result being that the speed at
tanned vas only Els knots, hut it was
estimated that in tolerabiy smooth water
the ship would have steamed at a speed OF
fully 2211 knots The ship was fully down
to her load line during the trials, and
drew twenty-eight feet aft.
