ONE LIFE LOST N
STORM IN OGDEN
Property Damaged and De-
strOyed Is Estimated at
Over 100000.
Special 20 The Tribune.

Special 20 The Tribune,
OGDEN, Oct 21-It is estimated
that the windstorm of Saturday night
and Sunday did at least 100000 worth
of damage in Ogden and vicinity. One
man, William Gibbs, was killed instant
ly. having been struck by a flying
plank, Small buildings were blown
over and wrecked completely. The
wind peeled shingles off the roof of the
Union Pacific freight sheds cleaner
than a carpenter could have done with
tools. It was no uncommon sight TO
see wagons overturned by the force of
the gale Residences were injured, signs
were blown down, plate glass was shat
tered. and the town looked as though
it had been visited by a hurricane. At
this time it is impossible to give de-
tailed statement of the damage. The
wind blew a gale all day.
The morning Short Line train from
Butte arrived IN Ogden about 10 o clock
a. m, several hours late. 1t lay in Og-
den all day until 100 o o'clock at night.
Then two Rio Grande trains from Salt
Lake succeeded in making their way
through mass Of debris and fallen tel
egraph poles into Ogden. A Rio Grande
train at once departed for the south,
and the Short Line train followed over
the Rio Grande tracks. The evening
train from Butte arrived just as the
morning train was pulling out, and the
three trains slowly followed each other
to Salt Lake
All telegraphic communication be
tween Ogden and Salt Lake was shut
off, and the trains proceeded minus tel
egraphic orders of any kind. They
were forced TO run very slowly. The
trains from the west arrived on good
time today, nut the schedule east of
Ogden is badly shot to pieces. One train
arrived from the east about ] O'clock
this afternoon, and reported that
blizzard was raging in Wyoming. Up
to a late hour this evening nothing had
been heard from the westbound Over
