BATILEShlP MISSOURI LOST A CYLINDER HEAD
Why That War Vessel Staggered Into Port at Santa Barbara.

Santa Barbara. April 25.-An acci- dent to the engines of the Missouri that occurred today in the run of the fleet from Santa Monica to Santa Bar bara proved to be more serious than was at first reported.
 The high pressure cylinder head Of the port engine blew out, and the en- zine room was quickly filled with es- caping steam. No one was injured. The supply of steam was cut off after heroic work by the engine room force and all danger was soon passed. The Missouri came into port under the starboard engine alone, and conse- quently the vessel was out of line when the fleet came to anchor
 A careful survey of the engine will be made tomorrow to ascertain the ex- tent Of the damage. The accident will not interfere with the Missouris con- inuing to san Francisco. where repairs will be made
 A new head has been ordered from the Newport News ship yards. where the vessel was built. to be sent to San Francisco. There were ten men in the engine room at the time of the acci- dent

All Santa Barbara Gathered
 at the Sea Shore
The Sailors of the Battle ships to be Deluged With Flowers.

Santa Barbara, April 25.-The Amer ican battleships fleet arrived here and anchored at 4:2S this afternoon. less than half an hour behind the schedule. despite the fact that four hours Of steaming after leaving Santa Monica at nine this morning was through q heavy fog which caused the speed to be reduced to six knots. Every store in town was closed and all the inhab- itants and thousands of visitors from surrounding towns, and the winter guests to the city who fingered for the fleets arrival were on the 'seashore when the fleet arrived. Despite the haze the smoke of the ships was made out two hours before the an,hors droppedJ
 After ,steaming in q single column all the way from the ports of Los An geles the ships changed into a column of squadrons after entering the road stead here and heading directly for the shore dropped at not more than 1900 yards from the shore. Anchoring here in a column of squadron third va riety Of anchoring was offered at Cal ifOrnia ports. A slight Arrangement of the steering gear of the New Jersey. and the machinery of the Missouri re- suited in the Tardiness of these ships in taking up their assigned berths. The fleet will remain here for five days.
 A festival of flowers has been ar ranged in it's honor. The display will begin on Monday with d floral parade and a battle of flowers Though the city is prettily decorated most of the entertainment fund will be spent upon flower features. A dance of flowers. open air dancing on the ocean boule- yard for the enlisted men. receptions. garden parties. and balls will take up a portion of the long program. A formal welcome to the city was ex- tended Admiral Thomas on the Con necticut soon after the anchOring. Mayor Boeseke of Santa Barbara and Rear Admiral Bowman H. McCalla., |. s.

HALF THOUSAND KILLED
 IN SOUTHERN TORNADOES
An Estimate Which Includes a Known Death
 List of BAY
The Number of the Seriously Injured is Appalling The Financial Devastation Though Tremendous so Far Can Be Only Guessed at.

New Orleans. April 25.-Probably half a thousand lives lost. a hun dred or more persons fatally injured. and many times this number painfully hurt together with property loss run ming up into the millions. is the record SD far of the tornado that originated in the west two days ago. sweeping over 1000 injured. In Texas. Louisiana, and Georgia. It left a path of death and desolation and want in Es wake, seriously interrupted all cOmmunica- ton between the cities in the south and brought about chaotic condition in many smaller towns.
 Mississippi. already sufferer from more than one tornado this year. again bore the brunt of the winds and rails Estimates of the number of those who lost their lives in that state place the death list at between l50 and l1j with over ltd0 injured. In Texas, Louisiana. Alabama and Georgia the death lists are also large with a serious loss of life in Arkansas and Tennessee. Au- thentic information in many instances are lacking owing to the crippled fa cilries for communication. IL will take time to form antyhing like an ac- curate estimate of the damage done io many sections.
 In half d dozen communities martial law has been declared, so terrible is the destVuction and so helpless are the stricken people left by the disaster. Serious disorders occurred in some places. including Amite, La. LOoting and other crimes have been reported but these instances have been rare. Several places have issued appeals for aid. In Mississippi Governor Noel has been asked to provide tents for the homeless
 The tornadoes lasted. in all, a period of nearly ten days. It was Thursday night that damage by tornadoes trav- cling eastward was first reported from points iu Texas This was followed during the next twenty-four hours by similar reports from Arkansas. Louis iana MisSissippi and Tennessee. Last night Alabama came within the flight of the storm and today reports of se- ri1us damage in Georgia are recorded.
 Utter misery of every sor-. was found today in Purvis Miss. by relief parties Despite the fact that of the e500 inhabitants which the little town boasted yesterday morning there were only goo today. still there are not suf- ficient accommodations in the wreck ed village for even the wounded. Ne gro mammics and little black children lay wounded and helpless under the broiling southern sun. Some had broken bones. some were partly crush ed. others had been wounded by sticks and splinters.

 ON FRANKLIN FIELD
One World Record Was Broken and Another Equaled.

Philadelphia, April 25.-The charac- ter and performances of hundreds of athletes in the annual relay races and field sports held in Franklin Field to- day under the auspices of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania. were of the high est order. one worlds record. that of the pole vault. was broken by w. R. Dray of Yale, and another record was equaled. The University of Pennsyl- vania won the blue ribbon event of the meet, the one mile relay for the championship of the United States. Her only opponent was Chicago who ran Pennsylvania to a sensational fin ish.
 The Michigan four mile team. which was given in the four mile event by default. entered the two mile national relay championship and won easily. Pennsylvania second.
 Hill school of PittstOwn. Pa. carried off the national relay championship for preparatory schools. The Brook lyn national training school captured the national relay championship for high schools.
 The one mile championship won by feunSyINana was anNDOdN race rom the beginning to the end. The official time was S:23 4-5 and 3:34 4-5. The worlds record is 3:21 2-5.
 The star performance in the field events was made by Dray. Yale pole vaulter. He covered a bar twelve feet and 1-2 inches. breaking by one inch his own record made last year. He tried to clear feet ten inches but was too tired tO accomplish it.
 In the first heat of the 120 yard hur- de race, A. E. Shaw of Dartmouth. eqUalled the worlds record. 15 1-5 sec onds. held by 4. C. Kraenbelin. but he had very strong wind at his back.
 In the hammer throw NJ. F. HOrr of Syracuse university. threw the ham mer 173 feet ,. inches. two inches short of the worlds record, but the throw was not alolwed because he stepped outside the ring.

The storm first appeared in Georgia at Column bus. on the Alabama line, seems tO have moved in a northeasterly direc- ton. At Cave Springs near Rome where the greate&t loss of life occur red nine persons were killed and many injured. In this vicinity the wind swept a path half a mile wide and five miles long. There was not a house left standing in the storm swept area. Hearn's academy of Cave Springs was badly damaged.

 In view of the fact that to Admiral Evans belongs the credit for taking the warships on the most famous cruise eyer undertaken. il has always been the intention to have the admiral return to the ships for few days so as to take them Into San Francisco harbor and command them until the review al that place bv the secretary of the navy on May $.
 On April 20. when Admiral Evans again resumes command he shall have been away from the fleet for one month. He will be in command of the armada for a little more than a week. as he will retire from the navy immediately after the naval parade on the Sth of May.

A BRITISH CRUISER
 DESTROYED BY A LINER
The St. Paul Run Down the Warship Gladiator.

Southampton. April 25.-The Ameri- can line steamship St Paul. which left Southampton on her regular voyage bound for New York this afternoon in a dense snowstorm rammed and de stroyed the British second class cruiser Gladiator. off the Isle of Wight.
 The first report stated that from twenty to thirty of the Gladiaor's crew had been drowned but later intelli- gence reduced the number of causal- ties The exact extent of the disastor however cannot be accurately known until tomorrow
 No one of the St. Paul was killed or injured but the bodies of Stewards Wridgery and Cowdey. and a Maltese steward. Debras, all attached to the cruiser have been brought ashore. One officer. Lieutenant William r. G. Graves. who attempted to swim to land is missing. Eight injured were taken to the military hospital at Col den Hill for treatment IL is believed that only a few others are unaccOunted for.

rest upon. There was not enough shelter in the town to protect them from the sun. many walls which re- mained standing had DO roofs and by a queer freak of the tornado many trees which had not been uproOted had been snatched off few feet above ground. A grove of trees was muti- lated in this manner so that it ap- peared as if a gigantic scythe had swept through the grove about 25 feet above the ground.
 The greater part Of Purvis' popula ton today were refugees in Hatties burg and LumbertOn. Miss, about 15O being badly injured. or those who remained in town many appeared dis tracted and they told remarkable sto- res of a number of their fellow towns . people who had been killed. Many hurried funerals were held today and a count of the visible dead revealed only thirtyfour. about half of them negroes Many negroes were reported killed in the vicinity of Purvis.
 The manner in which the tornado acted in this village puzzled those who witnessed it. Instead Of entering the town on one Side and passing out at the other. the storm whirled and see sawed about. Once or twice. judging from the lay of the debris today the wind veered so much as nearly to dou- ble on its trail. The result was ter rible for the inhabitants many of whom were caught and either injured or killed after they had apparently es- capped. The usual freaks were played by the wind Twenty prisoners were in the little town jail. The roof was lifted off. but so terror stricken were they that not one gained his freedom. None of the prisoners were seriously injured The wreckage which remained of the site of a lum- Der mill near the town consisted large ly of splinters from the size of tooth picks up to small sticks.
 The total money loss at Purvis is es- timated toady at s200.OO0 These fig ures were obtained from dozens of business men each of whom calculated his individual loss. The state tonight furnished tents the neighboring towns sending supplies. Martial law affords practical safety from footing. The loss at Amite, La. estimated to- night is close to S5OO,O0O. In Washing ton parish. La. the loss is estimated at between S5OO.0OO and S1.0O0 O0O Washington parish is a logging coun- try and much Of the loss there is in timber
