KANSAS IS AGAIN SWEPT
BYFAIAL Wind STORMS
At Least Five Killed and Fifty=Fiv'
Are Injured
Immense Damage Done to Property
Along Route of Storm

Following are the injured in the
Great Bend storm:
Lester Preston, Ransom Mid
daugh, Porter Thomas, r. e. Rucker,
r. E. Brown, T. E. Fulknerson, Clar-
ence Avery, Brakeman Murray, II
unidentified. Most of the victims
in this case were members of the
Santa Fe crew in the train wrecked
by the wind.
The storm spread over a wide area,
however, laid waste many farms and
injured many whose names could not
be obtained tonight. Many conflict
ing reports have been received. Some
had it that none were killed.
At Hoistington, Kan, a tornado
injured a number and greatly damag-
ed farm property. 1t was not so sew
ere, however, as that passing over
other portions of the state.
At Pond Creek, Okla, svere wind
storm slightly injured four and un-
rooted several houses. A binding
rain and hail storm accompanied the
wind in all three states.
Many waslouts demoralized rail-
road traffic. The Missouri Pacific
main line was washed out near Wal
colt between Leavenworth and Kan
sas City. The Burlington and Santa
Fe were forced to annul some OF
their trains. Electrical disturbances
crippled telegraph and telephone
wires and on this account only meag-
er reports from the storm swept area
could be obtained.
