NEW RICHMOND IS GONE.
Four Squares of the Business Por- ton Now q Pile of
 Debris.

New Richmond, Wis, June 13.- The tornado that swept out of exist enee the prosperous little city of New Richmond is the most disast- rous in point of fatalities eyer oc- curing in this section. The exact number of dead is still unknown, but it will certainly reach one bun dred and very probably will con siderably exceed that figure. As they were recovered the bodies were brought to the school house of the Catholle and Congregational churches. Thence they are to be taken to the cemetery except in a few eases where bones still stand.
 The bodies were prepared for burial by local and visiting under takers and so soon as identified were marked and disposed of as their friends requested.
 Nurses and physicians from St. Paul who had come down by special train on the Omaha road as soon as news of the disaster reached the Minnesota capital, were of great help all night and day and when the day closed all the se- riousIy injured were believed to have been cared for. Those whose injuries were serious, but whose chances for recovery were believed to be good were quickly sent to tke pospitaIs of St. Paul and Minneapo. lis, where better care can be given them. The slightly injured and those whose cases seem hopeless were kept here and were gwen the best attention possible. The list of dead is gradually increasing during the day and tonight it seemed that 100 might be the minimum estimate of the dead, while the list of the ip- iured will reach and perhaps exceed 200.
