RESCUE WORK IN OMAHA CARRIED ON IN
BINDING SNOW STORM

w" 01 ONM
ty Attorney Magney says that all
hooters and ghouls will be severely
dealt with.
An entire regiment of militia is
patrolling the storm district, and
helping the Fort Crook soldiers in the
work of clearing the ruins.
Every church, every auditorium,
every hall, every store-room is being
used to house the homeless victims.
Two hundred and sixty-three persons
had reported themselves utterly des-
titute early this morning. Many
others have not yet reported.
Wagons loaded with clothing and
food are drawn up in long lines be-
fore the relief stations waiting for
those with credentials to call for sup
plies. -
( Checks and money contributions
are pouring in on Mayor Dahlman
with every mail. The city authorities
say every victim of the storm will
be cared for.
The first of the funerals held to-
day was that Of the Krinsky family
of seven, parents and five children.
The family is entirely wiped out.
Neighbors followed the seven hearses
to the cemetery, and acted as pail
bearers there. Ten other funerals
were held today. :.
Plans for the rebuilding of the
wrecked district already are under
way. A corporation viii be formed
and those who need aid in rebuild
ing their homes will receive money
from it on very easy terms.

Omaha, Neb., March 25-While
soldiers, militiamen, city police and
firemen dug desperately in the ruins
of Omaha for more bodies today, the,
first of the funerals of the victims of
Sundays tornado were held.
The city is sheeted in snow; bit.
terly cold blizzard is raging; two
thousand, one hundred and seventy
nine people are homeless, destitute.
Ninety-nine of the ITO bodies taken
from the ruins in the ternado's path
have. been identified. The other
eleven bodies are lying in morgues in
different parts of the city.
Through these morgues is passing
hourly a long stream of friends and
relatives of those who lived in the
path of the storm. All are anxious to
see the bodies; all tremble with fear
as the sheets are drawn back.
The entire death list from the
Omaha storm now is IT. That total
is being added to hourly by reports
coming in from small towns near by,
and by the finding of more bodies.
How many more bodies will be found
can only be guessed at. 1t is feared
the number win be large.
A negro ghoul who was looting
bodies in one of the ruined buildings
was shot through the eye by Fort
Crook soldier early today. Neither
he nor the soldier can be found, and
officers refuse to discuss the matter
