The fire department responded 70 ID
alarms. The streets were full of people
going home from work and panic
ensued as soon as the storm broke, men
were picked up and hurled against the
buildings; horses and carriages were
sent flying here and there, and falling
wires full of the deadly fluid added to
the horror of the scene. Suddenly the
wind veered around to the west and
completed the destruction. It is as.
serted by some of those who have
traversed the downtown part of the city
that there are but few buildings in ST..
Louis that have not suffered in some
way from the storm.
The wagouway of the Eads bridge
on the East st. Louis side is crumbhng

A trolley car, loaded with passengers
bound for the West Side is said to have
fallen through to the railroad track be-
low, but with what result is not known.
The roof of the Republican hall was
blown off and 20-foot section of the
western wall of the city Jail clear down
exposing the interior. 1t was during
exercise hours and 200 hundred prison.
ers exercising in the building were
panic stricken. They were too fright
ened to try to escape.
The tanks of the Waters-Pierce Oil
company, on Gratiot street. blew up

The Consolidated wireworks, Twenty.

totally wrecked. Seven people are
known to have been injured seriously
by this wreck and many more are said
to have been hurt by falling walls.

The roof of the poorhouse, which has
1900 inmates, was blown off and it is
feared that the number Of fatally hurt
is great.
AS to the loss of life on the river, it
is reported that the magnificent steamer
Grand Republic was sunk with all on
board. The steamer d, H, Pike, with
80 passengers on board, bound mp the
river for Peoria, was blown bottom side
upwards. The steamer Conger was
blown nearly across the river and sank

The st, Louis Refrigerator and
W0odenware company's factory, Second
and Park avenue, was completely de.
stroyed by fire, caused by lightning
The loss is estimated at 100000 A
rumor was widely circulated that the
gas tank, near the Consolidated Wire
works, at the south end of the Twenty.
first street viaduct, had been blown
over and crushed in the wire works
building, killing four men to certainty
and possibly more.
Among the houses known to have
been destroyed are the furniture store
of Frederick Otteneds, at the corner Of
Broadway and Soulard streets, in the
southern part of the city, where six men
are reported killed q saloon at 604
South Seventh street, where nine men
are reported in the ruins, and st.
Patrick's church, at the corner of Sixth
and Biddell streets.
To add to the dismal situation the
rain has been coming down in torrents.
It is impossible to get reports from the
police station, where many of the dead
and injured have been taken, but there
is no doubt that the loss Of life is greater
than anything the country has known
since the disaster at Johnstown.
It was at first thought that scores had
been killed at the fair grounds, in the
western part of the city, where the roof
of the grandstand was blown off while
the last race was being run, but it is
now known that the people at the track
saw the storm coming, and passed out
Of the grounds and took ,efuge in the
adjacent fields.

The dispatcher's Office of the Illinois
Central were unable all night to get
any information from any point on
their line south of Centralia. 1t was
reported to them, however, that cy-
clone had swept through all the country
south of that point.
IL is thought that the storm swept
over st. Louis from northwest to south
cast, as 1t is considered probable that
the storm which was reported at Rush
Hill, Mo-, would require several hours
to reach st, Louis, and the storms at two
points are reported as having been long
enough apart to enable the storm to
cover the distance between Rush Hill
and ST. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, May 2S.--Death and de-
,truction reign supreme in st Louis
and vicinity as aresult of the most terri
BILE storm that ever visited this section
Of the country. So widespread is the
destruction in both st. Louis and East
st. Louis that it is impossible to even
estimate the amount of damage and
loss of life. Buildings of ever descrip-
tion are in ruins and as a result hun.
dreds of people are reported dead and
injured. The dead and wounded will
likely reach 1000,
Reports are in circulation that seven
steamers lying at wharfboats on this
and East st. Louis side Of the river have
been sunk, with all on board With
one or two exceptions all the street car
lines in the city are at q standstill and
thousands of people are compelled to
remain downtown or walk home. The
storm began as a hard rain. 1t soon de.
veloped into fierce thunder storm,
with the wind from the east. A little
later the wind had gained velocity Of
80 miles an hour, driving the rain before
it and hardly building escaped, many
being set on fire by lightning.
