PARIS GOWNS RUINED.
Half a Million IN Damage By Storm
at the WOrLd's Fair.

St Louis Aug. 20.-Paris gowns valued at
$500, 900 ruined by heavy rains which
passed the Worlds Fair grounds The
gowns In the Palace of Manufactures The
valuation is made by Marcel Estieu. acting COM
missioner general of France, who has investf-
gated the havoc wrought by the water
The gowns were exhibited by French dress
makers in glass showcases, and the rain came
through crevices In the roof of the building and
poured down on the tops of the cases. eventually
leaking through and soaking the garments.
Many of the dresses had been sold. to be deliv-
cred to st. Louis and Chicago firms at the close
of the fair. The damage, 1t is stated. cancels
the contracts.
A more thorough estimate OF the damage done
by the tornado in North st. Louis yesterday
was made to-day by business men and others
interested in property in that vicinity. In addi-
ton to the loss of one life and the injury to
more than one hundred and fifty persons, the
damage wrought by the storm is now estimated
a $150,000. Over half of that amount done
to manufacturing plants the remainder being
divided among dwelling houses. more than one
hundred having been more or less seriously
damaged.
In the Illinois towns of Venice Madison and
Granite City the damage Is also greater than at
first supposed. Two lives were lost in that vi
cinity, and many property owners suffered losses
running from 50 600 down to $50.
After more than twelve hours of steady work
by large gangs for the telephone and electric
lighting companies, the streets where the wind
storm was felt most severely are still Uttered
with debris from wrecked buildings and hun
dredS of feet of telegraph and telephone wires.
Traffic was resumed on the Broadway streetcar
line to-day, after having been suspended for
more than eighteen hours. though the sides of
the street still lined with wires and tee
phone cables and the sidewalks Uttered with
broken poles and other wreckage.
