AID FOR THE SUFFERERS.

Surrounding Cities Respond Promptly to
the Appeal for Help.
AS soon as the news of the New Rich
mond disaster had reached the outside
world offers of help and help itself be-
gan to come into the city. St. Paul, be-
ing the railroad center to which New
Richmond was tributary, was the first
to learn of the storm and its attendant
woes, and within two or three hours
the first relief train was started with
physicians, nurses, hospital supplies and
commissary stores for the people of the
stricken city. A second and third
train soon followed and speedily neigh
boring cities in Wisconsin sent in all
they could gather for their needy sister
city. The Omaha and the Wisconsin
Central roads promptly carried through
all the supplies and delivered them to
relief headquarters, whence they were
delivered to the people of the city.
Hundreds of morbidly curious people
from neighboring cities thronged the
ruined town all day and crowded about
those whose hearts had been wrung
with an anguish too great for words.

Governor Scofeld at once appealed tc
the public by proclamation for aid and
ordered the adjutant general to the

guard was ordered to New Richmond
to aid the detachment of st. Paul police

all possible aid to the suffering. AS
soon as Governor Scofeld received a
message from New Richmond which
confirmed the reports of
Death Dealing Cyclone,
arrangements were Immediately made
for sending representatives from the
state to the scene. A conference be-
tween the governor, Major Doyon,
Mayor Hoven and several leading citi-
zens was held, and while the mayor
and citizens arranged to secure supplies
and money in the city the governor and
Major Doyon mapped out a plan of
action on the part of the state.

w. X. Mead, Cresco, Iowa:
Dear Sir:-In your paper of a few

written by your correspondent at

was only intended as a joke on several
OF our fellow towns-men and which
your humble servant requested Mr..
Van Dee to write up in his weekly
items. Now Mr.. Editor, Mr..
Van Dee nor anyone else ever thought
of giving otfense to the persons men
toned i'm the article; far from it. l
know, am to blame if anyone is and
am willing to apologize at any time to
any or all of the gentlemen connected
with this joke or mentioned i'm the
said item. If necessary, | will go fur
ther or do still more rather than have
a wrong impression or construction
put upon the item or anyone con-
nected with it. In conclusion let me
say to one and all connected with this
matter, forgive and forget, and at
your earliest convenience come down
to the banks of our beautiful stream,
crack Il joke with Old Dusty, catch a
few black bass, cat fish. or any other
fish that may be beguiled by your
piscatorial accomplishments. But for
Old Glory's sake do not harbour any

OMAHA, June ia tornado struck
the town of Herman, in Washington
county, and wiped the place out of ex-
istence. AT least dozen people were
killed and nearly hundred injured.
Herman is a town of about 800 in
habitantss on the line of the Chicago,
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha
railway.
Advices received by The Bee state
that every building in the town is de-
stroyed except the public school and a
small dwelling, both of which are on
the outskirts The force of the wind
was terrific as scarcely one piece of any
of the many structures destroyed was
left intact The scene in the streets of
the once thriving and beautiful little
town is one of destruction. Wrecked
buildings and broken furniture, scarcely
recognizable in its dilapidated condi-
ton, are strewn all around, while dead
bodies lie in many places.
Relief Train on tho Scene.
The relief train from Blair arrived
about an hour after the storm and the
work of picking up the wounded was
begun. Willing hands did what they
could to help the injured and in the
course Of an hour the train pulled out
for Blair with 20 injured on board.
They were taken to Blair, as there is
absolutely no place left at Herman at
which treatment can be administered.
All the citizens of Blair have thrown
open their houses to the wounded and
the unfortunates are being cared for by
competent surgeons. Many of the in
jured will die, but some of them re-
ceived but slight injuries. 1t is impos-
slble at this hour owing to the confu-
sion to ascertain the number of dead,
but 10 are known to have been killed
and the list will run very much higher.
Among the badly hurt is George B.
Clyde, the local station agent for the
Omaha road at Herman.
Did Some Heavy Lifting.
A new stand pipe weighing 20 tons
was carried block and half and a
large iron safe was carried two blocks.
The main street of the town is mass
of debris. The railroad tracks are
buried and the train on the st. Paul
and Omaha railroad cannot pass until
they are cleared. A relief train from
Blair carried back SO homeless citizens.
A freight train left Blair at midnight
with medical aid and other relief for
the suffers.
Among the dead are Miss Hopkins,
Postmaster W. S. Richards, Mr.. and
Mrs. Anderson Hopkins and son and
child of S. H. Davis.

Severe Storm in Eastern Nebraska and
Western Iowa.
OMAHA, June 15.-Eastern Nebraska
and Western Iowa were visited by an
unusually severe storm. The day was
exceedingly sultry and about 6 o'clock
in the evening clouds began to gather
and rain poured in torrents, continuing
at intervals all night, and many towns
were flooded. Paillon, the county seat
of Sarpy county, town of about 500
inhabitants, had from three to six feet
of water standing in its principal bust
ness streets. The mill dam went out
and many people were driven from
their residences. In Omaha perfect
flood swept down the streets. At
Council Bluffs Indian creek overhowed
its banks and Broadway from Tenth
street to the Northwestern tracks was
flooded to a depth of from one to two
feet.

Some Place the Loss of Life as High as
Four Hundred.
New RICHMOND, Wis, June 15.-It is
the average resident of New Richmond
who estimates the loss of life most seri-
ously. They claim that hundreds are
missing who were burned in the ruins.
One such is G. A. Nelson, who owned
the Columbia restaurant. His estimate
of the loss is 400 dead. He says that
fully ~ people sought refuge in his
place when the storm came up and that
only four of them escaped alive. Mr..
Nelson says the storm came up with
great suddenness and sounded much
like railroad train crossing bridge.
A moment after the first of the noise
the front of the building was crushed
as though it were an egg shell.

BUSINESS SECTION GONE.

The Tornado's Path Was Through the
Main Streets of the City.
The business portion of New Rich
mond covered space of four squares
each way and was solidly built of brick
and stone. This entire space was swept
clear, foundation walls, and in some
places masses of debris, alone marking
where the business places formerly
stood. Trees that had lined the streets
of the neighboring residence districts
were broken clear off or twisted and up
rooted. The tornado came up the Will
low river from Hudson, where the dam
age was comparatively slight, follow
ing the general course of the river and

frequently happened, were torn asunder
and the fragments were scattered to the
four winds Of heaven. What had been
prosperous, peaceful city of $500 peo-
pie had in few minutes become a
veritable city of desolation. A circus
was in town on Monday and people had
come in from all the surrounding coun-
try to see the show. After the circus
the people had crowded into the city to
do their shopping before going home in
the evening. 1t was at this time the
storm cloud came up from the south
west, bringing death and destruction in
its path. The circus grounds were out
side the path of the storm, but the peo-
pie being in the business places fell a
prey to the all devouring tornado.
Many Bodies in tho Ruins.
1t is believed that the greatest NOR
tality in any one place occurred in the
Basement of the hardware store of
Ward Williams. This stood upon one
sof the most prominent corners in the
business portion of the town and when
the storm approached there was large
crowd Immediately in front of the
building. A large number of people
fled into the basement and in an instant
they were overwhelmed by the ruins.
Several bodies have already been taken
out, but it is estimated that fully one
dozen bodies are still in the ruins.
The family of Samuel Hawkins was
nearly wiped out. They were on the
second floor of their residence when the
storm broke and made rush for the
cellar. Before any of them could reach

NEW RICHMOND, Wis, June 15.-The
tornado that has swept out OF existence
the happy and prosperous little city of
New Richmond is the most disastrous
in fatality yet known in cyclone history.
The exact number of dead is still I'M
known, but it will certainly reach 100
and very probably will considerably ex-
coed that figure. AS they were recov-
cred the bodies were brought to the
schoolhouse or the Catholic or Congre-
gational churches. Nurses and physi-
clans 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 and when the day closed all
the seriously injured were believed to
have been cared for. Those whose in
juries were serious but whose chances
for recovery were believed to be good
were
Quickly Sent to the Hospitals
of st. Paul and Minneapolis, where the
best of care can be given them. The
slightly injured and those whose cases
seem hopeless were kept here and were
given the best care possible. The list
of dead gradually increased during the
day and at dark it seemed that 100
might be the minimum estimate of the
dead, while the list of injured will
reach and perhaps exceed 200.
During the day scattered groups of
rescuers searched the debris where bod
les might be found. A fire company
from st. Paul kept two streams of
water pouring on the smouldering ruins
until heavy rain at the close of the
day just about extinguished the flames
Some of the merchants organized pri-
vate salvage corps and managed to save
some property, but the amount was
small.
Supply of COINS Runs Out.
The supply of collins ran out early in
The morning and at present there are
not enough in the city to bury the dead.
"A sufficient number are on the way
from st. Paul, Chippewa Falls, Eau
Claire and other places.
As is usual in cases of great disasters
there has been large influx of disrepu-
table characters and there have been
several cases of petty pilfering, but they
have not amounted to much. Although
1t is out of their own state the st. Paul
police officers have done most excellent
work in checking general thieving. A
large number of detectives in plain
clothes are on duty watching the ruins,
and it is expected by morning that the
militia will have things so we'll in hand
that the police officers will be with
drawn to their own state.
