WIRES ARE DOWN.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, June 23.-Only
meager reports were available early
today of loss of life and property dam.
age caused by tornado which swept
Fergus Falls last night. Both tele-
phone and telegraph wires are down
for miles on all sides of the city and
those who have tried to reach the
scene Of the disaster in automobiles
report the roads are impossible.
Although no report has been re.
ceived it is believed that at least two
relief trains carrying doctors and
nurses have arrived and that other
trains carrying supplies will reach
their destination soon.
Railroad officials here said they
were unable to obtain accurate inform
alton of the conditions caused by the
storm. Efforts to learn the number
Of persons injured when Great North
crn passenger train number l, known
as the Oriental Limited, was swept
from the track have been unsatisfac-
tory. Early reports said that only one
girl was injured and her hurts were
not of serious nature. No mention
has been made Of the members of the
train crew.
The storm swept through the busi-
ness section of the town, demolishing
everything in its path. At least fifty
bodies are said to be in the wreckage
of the Grand Hotel, which was razed,
as was virtually every other building
for two blocks on each side of the
hotel.

BRITISH FLEEr ABsENr

LONDON, June 23- Although re.
ports have stated that six Germans
were killed and ten wounded when the
boats Of the German feet in Scapa
Flow were fired upon subsequent to
the scuttling of the German fleet, the
Daily Mail says that others may have
been drowned and that some may pos
sibly have reached the Orkney islands
and have not as yet been reported.
The main force of the British fleet
was absent exercising at sea when
the German ships were sunk, only
some drifters, small warships and pa.
trolling aircraft being on guard over
the interned enemy squadron
Admiral Won Reuter-. commander OF
the surrendered German feet. saws he
issued an order to sink the ships, the
Daily Mail adds, and did so because
at the beginning of the war the Ger.
man emperor directed that no German
warship should fall into the enemy s
hands. He says that he believed
from newspaper reports, that the
armistice had been ended.
Admiral Won Reuter- visited Germ
any some weeks ago, it being under
stood at the time that the reason for
his trip there was that he was i'll, but
he soon returned and it is believed
that at that time he circulated the
order to sink the German ships by
evading the censorship or making sig
nails to the various vessels, an act
which the close proximity of the Ger
man ships made quite easy. The Mai
quotes the admiralty as denying that
German crews were periodically
changed and saying that the origina
crews remained on board the vessels
5000 Men on Board.
There we're $50 to 200 men on the
big ships and from 10 to 20 on board
the destroyers. Therefore there were
nearly 5000 in the boats when the
feet was sunk.
The prospects of salyaging a few
battleships is fairly hopeful, the Mai
says. None has gone down in really
deep water Bleaching of the sinking
ships proved difficult and at times 9
dangerous matter. One destroyer
sank as it was being towed ashore
British sailors on board having scarce
ly time to jump clear before the craft
went down. About twenty destroyers
out of the fifty that were internet
were beached during the afternoon
The German crews which were taker
to the Victorious were later trans
ferred to other warshipS.
