MORE THAN SCORE
KILLED IN STORM
Besides Toll in Life, Property
Loss Exceeds a Million.
GETTING BACK TO NORMAL
The Search for Bodies Among the
Ruined Houses Continued
All Day.

Cincinnati, July 8.-With twenty
FIVE known dead, missing and a prop
erty loss that will exceed a million
dollars, Cincinnati tonight was MAX
ing valiant effort to recover from
probably the worst storm in it's his
tory. Twelve of the dead were claim
ed by the Ohio river.
At $3.50 o'clock last night the
storm broke; one-half hour later the
city and it's suburbs lay stricken Its
telephone system had been paralz-
ed, its stret car service suspended
and it's citizens were cropping in dark
ness, trying tc ascertain the toll the
storm had taken.
Two steamboats, had gone down in
the Ohio river; probably a hundred
houses were levelled; half-dozen
church spires had fallen and when
the full extent of the damage was
ascertained late today it was found
that few houses had escaped dam
age.
with electric signs and glass, Will :
in the residence district and in the
suburbs, all traffic was blocked by
trees thrown across the thorough
fares.
Some fifty club houses along the
Ohio river were swept into the
stream and fioated away.
CITY RECOVERING.
Tonight found the city with it's
street car service virtually normal.
The telephone service is rapidly re-
covering and the city had done al
most miraculous work in cleaning up
the debris. Search for bodies in the
collapsed houses continues.
At Terrace Park, suburb, a spe-
cial train carrying race horses from
Latonia to the Eastern tracks, was
wrecked and nineteen thoroughbreds
were killed. Three of their caretak-
ers were killed and a number of
others, including several jockeys,
were injured.
The Kentucky side of the river was
hit as hard as was Cincinnati itself.
Damage to Newport, Covington,
Bellevue, Dayton, Fort Thomas, Fort
Mitchell, Latonia and Ludlow, it Is
believed, almost will equal damage
done in this county.
Three more bodies were recover
ed tonight from the ruins of DEVIL
ing. This puts the total of known
dead at 25.

Thomas III. Peoples and Solicitor
George Bell Zimmerman of South

Gently refused extradition.
South Carolina officials told the
governor today that Pennsylvania
was morally and legally bound to
give up the prisoner. Mr.. Thinner
man said South Carolina was con
cerned in the administration of JUS
tice and that Brown was in no dan
ger except from the electric chair or
the penitentiary. He answered the
charges of lawlessness by saying
South Carolina was not the only state
to have such experiences.
The governor took no action, re-
questing that briefs be fled

Berlin, July 8 (by wireless to Say
ville.)-The battle on the Isonzo

feet, and the waste of ammunition
was tremendous.
