WATERFOWL LOSS
fOOTS UP 100000

watertown, S. D.. June 26.-Water-
town is devoting itself to the work
of caring for those left homeless by
theg storm Tuesday evening. The
Coddington county commissioners in
special session yesterday afternoon,
APPROPRIATED $1,000, a duplicate of an
appropriation made by the Watertown
City commission.
Although the relief committees ap-
spoinetd by the commission and the
commercial club opened headquarters
only last night, the total amount sub
scribed through them at noon yester-
day lis almost $4,000. .
AZ reorganization of the damage done
by the saorm shows lis homes wholly
or partially wrecked and about 100
barns destroyed. A conservative esti-
mate of the total loss is 100000. with
tpraetically no insurance.
About one building in twenty-t five
was insured against loss by winds.
The injured continue to improve and
with exception of James Hagen will
recover. Hagen remains unconscious
as the result of a fractured skull, blu
shows more physical strength.
Reports received here from Goodwin

kbart1s and small buildings on farms by
