SIX PERSONS DIE
IN RAGING STORM
Millions in Damage Caused
by Torrential DoWnpour in
Tennessee and Kentucky.

BY the Associated Press.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 30.--Scat-
tered reports from middle Tennessee
and Kentucky today showed that at
least six persons had been killed and
millions of dollars damage caused by
torrential rains and windstorms that
swept the two States yesterday.
The breaking of Cookeville's munich
pal power dam on the Falling Water
River sent a huge wall of water down
the narrow valley toward the Caney
Fork River. already above flood stage,
but did not cause any deaths, as far as
could be determined.
Normally a small stream, the Failing
Water River had backed up for IL miles
and was running feet deep over the
concrete dam when it collapsed. Mount
ed messengers had already been dis
patched to warn residents Of the val
ley and it was believed all had reached
higher ground before the break. How
ever, rescue parties left Cookeville at
dawn today to search the debris for
possible victims.
List Of Fatalities.
In the same general area the small
daughter and wife of farmer were
drowned when Martins Creek washed
away their home as they slept In
Buffalo Valley the two young daughters
of another farmer also were drowned.
while John S. Lewis, Nashville deputy
sheriff, was electrocuted when he
stepped on power wire that had fallen
in a puddle. Three women In scat
tered sections were reported seriously
injured, with score or more slightly
hurt
The greatest wind damage was at
Alexandria, Tenn, where % residences
were destroyed and many other build
ings damaged.
Roads impossible.
In both Kentucky and Tennessee
roads were practically impossible, with
telegraph and telephone lines badly
crippled Crops were washed out,
bridges carried away, trees uprooted
and in many places railroad tracks UNI
dermined, but because of the difficulty
of communication 1t was impossible to
obtain an accurate estimate of damage.
At Louisville, KY, one child was
drowned in a flooded cellar. AT Lex
ington records more than a century old
were ruined when water flooded the
basement of the Administration Build
ing of the University of Kentucky.
No serious food damage was expected
at Louisville, but 1t was feared the Ohio
River would overrun its banks between
there and Paducah.
