RECENT STORM AT ST. LOUIS,
Nearly Six Inches of Water Fell, Re-
sultinE in Much Damage to City
and Worlds Fair Property.

ST. Louis, June 3O.-It was a
gloomy Sunday that was inflicted up
on st. Louis. The rain, not satisfied
with having broken all records for
the past ten years on Saturday, con-
tined to fall during the greater Dor
tion of the day and evening.
According to the local weather bu-
reau, the deluge which ST. Louis has
just experienced, commenced about
two o'clock Saturday morning. Be-
tween that hour and seven o'clock
Saturday night the gauge registering
the rainfall recorded 40 inches.
Then there was a cessation, barring
few drops which fell from time to
time, but not in sufficient quantities
to make any impression until S:5S
O'Clock Sunday morning. At that
time the clouds opened again and
the rain descended in torrents, con-
tinuing at intervals until two in the
afternoon. Shortly after six o'clock
in the evening there was another
storm, and it rained hard and steadi-
ly for an hour OF more. At the
weather Office after it was reported
that between SIS a. m. and D. m
Sunday, the rainfall amounted to go
of an inch. The office was closed at
night, but it was estimated that the
fall during the evening storm would
easily reach 20 of an inch. These fig
ures show that in the ~ hours end
ing at eight o'clock Sunday night the
total rainfall in St. Louis amounted
to $50 inches. almost a half foot.
Considerable damage has been done
throughout the city by the blowing
down of shade trees and the unroof-
ing of a few buildings. The princi-
pal damage, however, was done at
