Carroll, Sept. 27.-The arrival here
Of Mr.. and Mrs. M. M. futile, Mr.. and
Mrs. A. e. Tuttle and Charles Page,
who were sufferers from the Gulf
storm, brought great relief to their
relatives and friends. They relate n
remarkable story Of their escape, from
death In the storm and are still suf-
fering from the shock and exposure in
the water.
On the island where they were stay
ing there were but five buildings left,
and the inhabitants whose lives were
saved escaped by fleeing to the sand
hills, and even there many were drown
ed. The women and children were
placed in life boats. The Mesdames
Tuttle were in a small boat which
| struck a rock and was wrecked. They
had life belts on and managed to cling
to the ropes until they were released
| by a cotton ship. The three men saw
| the boat capsize and sink and believed
the women would be drowned. This
was on Monday and It was not until
the following Friday that the women
! learned that the men had been saved
also. They escaped with only the
clothing they wore and were without
| food or water for fifty eight hours.
| They say that press reports fail to
adequately describe the storm.

Provision Heretofore Lacking for
Keeping Proper State Reoords-Rsp-

Up Matter With War Department
at Washington.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Sept. 27.-As the result
of the effort of Frank Lyman Of the
state adjutant generals office, and
others at Washington last week there
is to be a roster of sailors who SER
we'd in the worlds war prepared by
states as we'll as Of soldiers and mar
ines. The roster provisions of the var
ious states heretofore failed to make
provisions for listing the sailors.
The matter was taken up at the state
war history conference attended by
representatives of various states en-
gagged in preparing state rosters. A
committee was appointed with Mrs.
Col Lyman chairman to lay the mat
ter before the navy department. An
audience was gained with Assistant
Secretary of the Navy I. d. Roosevelt
who at once took the matter up and
asked Admiral Washington's depart
ment for an estimate of the cost OF
preparing such a roster. 1t Is Thought
the matter viii be arranged so that
each state, along with its roster Of SOL
diers and marines who served in the
world war, will also haev a roster OF
sailors who served.
While at Washington Lieut.. COL
Lyman secured some excellent photo
graphs which were part of the off,
cial collection there showing important
views of incidents connected with the
16Sth and other Iowa organizations and
war views considered typical of condi-
lions during the heighth Of the con-

The matter was taken into court at
