beneath heaps of broken buildings or
disjointed bricks
A table, checked up to be absolutely
accurate, and covering only the terri.
tory within the city limits of Omaha,
was prepared by the Commercial
club. This is what it shows:

hospitals. The restitution was aug
mented when nearly three inches of
snow fell over the stricken district
the day following the storm, making
entirely uninhabitable the houses OF
many wins had prepared to retain
temporary homes in partly destroyed
structures, So far as money might
relieve, conditions were perfect.
Snowstorm Hampers Work.
Shivering from cold, scores of men,
women and children struggled in the
snow to rescue their dead or injured
relatives and friends who lay buried
beneath the homes ard buildings
wrecked by the tornado.
The snowstorm seriously hampered
the work of rescue. More than three
inches of snow covered the debris in
the section of the city which was
stricken by the cyclone.
Many of the injured whose condi-
tons were considered more or less
critical have not been told of the COM
plete wreck which the tornado made
Of their property. The latest reports
give the number Of injured at 652, |
while the death list stands at lip for
the number killed by the Omaha
storm.
GAP Homes Destroyed.
The Commercial club made this
statement Of the physical condition
of the storm section:
Houses destroyed and uninhabited,
553 Houses partially destroyed, l.
2O6 People homeless, $500. People
destitute, 1863.
In spite of the restitution the pub
lie kitchen at the auditorium, where
preparations had been made to feed
1000 persons a day, has had few
calls, most of the destitute going to
the homes of friends.
Privations of the storm sufferers
are being greatly increased by the
snow Women, Juggling at heavy
beams, in attempts to aid the men,
with children wrapped with shawls
and blankets standing about, greeted
the federal soldiers as they patrolled
the afflicted district and aided in the
work of protecting the destroyed and
homes from looters.
Later city officials gathered within
the lines drawn about the district by
the soldiers and distributed clothing
and other necessaries among the suf-
ferers. More than $4,000 already has
been subscribed by individual con-
tributors.

Omaha, Neb.-Th!rteen hundred
families have been given succor since
the relief committee began the work
of caring for victims of the Easter
days tornado Half hundred houses
have been provided with rent paid a
month in advance and furniture, cloth
ing and other household necessities
have been distributed
Many families who were left home
less as a result of the storm have
permitted pride to keep them from
the relief stations and the committee
has put to work corps Of searchers
to reach and relieve this class Of suf-
ferers.
A general supply depot at the audi
forum is being used to supply the re-
lief stations Twenty thousand loaves
Of bread we're among the contribu-
tons which came in one day
Last of Victims Buried.
Three more injured died and the
last Of the original victims Of the dis
aster were buried, a score of funerals
being held
Frank Grojean, Al years old, and
Helen Hodges, s years old, died of
injuries received in the tornado and
Thomas Barrup, As years old, believed
to have been crazed by the shock
when his daughters home was blown
down over his head, ended his life at
a local hotel.
Committees from the Real Estate
exchange are now canvassing the de-
vastated district and will report on
the damage done each piece Of prop
erty and the amount Of money neces-
sary to repair or rebuild it. These
resorts will be used as a basis by the
restoration committee, which is ar
ranging to provide necessary funds
to loan at low rates, or without in
terest, to those needing ii for the re-
building of their homes.
Sympathy For Flood Victims.
Mayor Dahlman has sent to the
mayors of the afflicted Ohio towns an
expression of sympathy, in each mes
sage bespeaking for the people Of
Omaha the hope that reports Of food
disasters might prove to be exagger-
ated
Up to date 112 dead have been iden-
tilted in the city of Omaha, Council
Bluffs and ether adjacent cities re-
port AZ, making a total Of 1874
The relief is proving pitifully made
quate, despite the strenuous efforts
Of those in charge. The central re-
lief committee is working might and
main, but is entirely too small to han
die the situation. There is much real
suffering. But $4,000 has been con-
tributed in cash. OF this amount $780,
600 came from the Big Four railroad
systems and several thousand we're
sent from out Of the state, The state
has since appropriated 100000.
Soldiers Still on Guard.
People Of Omaha began to count
the cost, both in lives and dollars
When a resume was made it was
apparently more appalling than many /
were willing to admit.
Actual count of the dead and in
iursd has lowered the number Of res
idents previously reported to have

SWIMS FROM
BATTERYTO SANDYHOOK
Samuel Richards, IT., Beats Record Made by
Commodore Brown by Hours and 10
Minutes-Miss Pitonof Fails.

The twenty-two-mile swim from the
Battery TO Sandy Hook a feat ac-
oomplished for the first time two weeks
ago by Commodore Alfred Brown, was
duplicated yesterday by Samuel Rich
ards, ir, Of the J. Street Swimming
Club, Of Boston. Richards not only
succeeded in covering the distance, but
actually clipped ; hours and 16 min
utes from the record set by Brown, ar
irving at the Hook hours and II min
utes after he dived into the water at
Battery Point.
Rose Pitonof, also OF Boston, and
Raymond J. Boyle. of Pittsburgh, both
made plucky attempts to cover the
course yesterday, but failed because of
the strong tide Miss Pitonof when
within a quarter Of a mile Of her goal
and Boyle within half mile.
Richards, during the latter part Of
Of his swim, contended against the
food of the second tide, and won his
fight against it. thus establishing an
other remarkable record. Several
noted long distance swimmers, includ-
ing Commodore Brown, have declared
! that no man could ever reach the Hook
by battling with this second tide, but
would have 10 wait in some sheltered
spot until il turned, and continue his
swim with the aid of it's ebbing cur
rent.
Richards dived into the water from
the wharf near the Department of
Docks and Ferries at $40 a. m. Using
an English ovcrarm stroke. he kept
close TO the Battery wall until he
reached the South Ferry. Then he
struck out for Governors Island, which
he reached in thirty minutes despite
tho cross current Of the rising tide.
BY crawling along the sea wall of the
island he arrived at the Erie Basin
at 7:53 o'clock. once I'm the Lower Bay
he found the tide in his favor and
made rapid progress.
He reached Swinburne Island, oppo-
site Coney Island Point, at 1l:4i
o'clock, after losing half an hour IN
the Narrows because Of the cross cur
rents. After he had passed Romer
Shoal, at 1:02 o'clock, the tide turned
against him and the remainder OF his
swim was a constant struggle But
inch by inch he steadily fought his way
until, at 2:5S O'Clock, he wadcd ashore
on the Hook.
Miss Pitonof and Boyle passed
through almost the same difficulties.
The yang woman was unfortunate in
her start and lost about an hour as she
was trying 10 make Buttermilk Chan
mel. She entered the water at the
Barge Wharf at lbs o'clock. too early

Teddy sank his teeth into Joe's right
