LONDON. Oct. 23.-(P1-Unroofed
buildings, shattered glass and fallen
masonry today marked the path OF 4
miniature tornado which swept upon
London last night with a violence
rarely experienced in England.
1t had been raining steadily but
was otherwise fairly calm when peo-
pie were startled by a sudden roar
and whirled helplessly around amid
crashing glass and falling stones,
tiles and bricks.
Oxford Circus and the n%eighboring
streets were the center OF the
storms violence. In that neighbor-
hood parts OF the roofs Of several
buildings we're ripped off. Plate
glass windows Of the big shops were
blown in. Goods and dressmakers'
models displayed in the windows
were whisked out into the street by
the wind.
Passing omnibuses rocked like
ships on a stormy sea TO the terror
of passengers. Two of these huge
automobiles were stopped and driven
backwards by the force of the wind.
The wind lifted off a 'arge part
of the roof the Labor Exchange and
dropped it into the street.
Signs hanging over the street were
torn off by the hundreds.
Only two persons we're injured.
This small casualty list was attrib-
uted to the rain which had cleared
the streets before the <orm broke
in all its fury.
