STORM AND FLOOD
DO HEAVY DAMAGE
MISSOURI KANSAS AND OKLA
HOMA HARD HIT BY TORNADO
AND CLOUD BURSTS.

Kansas City. Mo-Defnite figures
as to the damage caused by lorna
does and cloudbursts which struck
widely separated points in Missouri,
Kansas and Oklahoma were unavail-
able, owing to interrupted wire COM
munication.
However, all information received
here indicated that a number of per
sons had been killed, and that the
property damage would run into
large figures.
Atehison, Kan, reported loss OF
approximately $1,000,000 from high
water in its warehouse district.
Heavy damage was caused in the
Kaw river watershed, extending from
Lawrence to Salina by cloudbursts
which occurred, it is reported. How
ever. few, if any, casualties resulted
from the storms.
Among the early known fatalities
in Oklahoma were four at Porter,
village of 1000 Inhabitants, which
was wrecked by tornado. About 20
persons were injured. one of whom is
expected to die. The properly dam
age is estimated at 100000.
The little town of 500 people was
almost laid waste by the wind which
swept upon it from the Southwest.
All of the buildings on one side of the
principal business street were de-
stroyed and more than half of the
buildings remaining were damaged.
The power house, cotton gin, and
the NJ. K and T. railroad station
were completely demolished. Wagons
and automobiles were wrecked by the
wind. Three horses were killed in
the streets.
In Kingfsher county three persons
several others injured. At Hinton, IL
woman is reported killed, anu eight
are reported to have been killed and
or nine other persons injured.
Twenty-eight dead and several
score injured, was the toll taken by
the tornado, which swept parts OF
Mississippi and Louisiana, according
to reports fran various sections of
the two states reaching here. Tween
ty-four persons we're killed in Mis-
sissippi, four of them white. The
path of the tornado included Delhi
and Rayville. La, Issaquena, Shar-
key, Washington. Humphreys and

TO AID SOL DIERS
SECRETARY CT INTERIOR LANE
CONTINUES WORKING TO GIVE
SOLDIERS WORK AND LAND.

Washington. Although Congress
adjourned without bringing to a vote
the proposed legislation which, if en-
acted into law, would have made 1t
possible for the Department of the
Interior to begin work Immediately
on the construction of soldier-settle-
ments and provide work and homes
for thousands of returned soldiers,
sailors and marines on reclaimed
land, the fact that the bill was favor
ably reported in both the House and
Senate, and the nationwide approval
OF the plan as evidenced by the hun
dreds of letters received daily at the
department, have led Secretary Lane
to take the stand that there is every
reason to believe that similar bill
will be favorably considered at the
coming special session OF Congress.
He is continuing the preliminary
work of investigation as far as the
limited funds at his disposal will per-
nit, and is also endeaYoring to asceT-
tain for the information of Congress
the attitude toward the plan OF as
many men in the service as he is
able to reach through the distribution
of questionnaires at the various
camps and naval stations throughout
the country.
Many legislatures have not met re
Gently, but large number of the
states already have taken action by
appropriate legislation or by the ap-
pointment of committees to cooper
ate with the federal government in
connection with the soldier-settle-
ment plan of the department.

The fire originated in the fifth floor
of the Rose-Lyon building, spreading
rapidly to lower floors. Considerable
Roadway was gained by the flames
before an alarm was sounded When
they arrived the building was filled
with dense smoke, making entrance
almost impossible. Several lines of
hose were carried into the blazing
building, but the men were forced TO

forced the firemen to back off. owing
TO the intense heat. Several lines of
hose were carried on top of adjacent
buildings, where good work was Of
fected.
