darkness temporarily Interrupted tho
search for storm victims last night
3tf people we r known to bo dead on
both skies of tno river and although
the complete death list will never be
known It is believed that It will up-
proximate 400 in the two cities.
The number of the injured is oven
larger and many of the maimed can-
not survive. The property loss will
roach well Into the millions but in-
surance people liremen nud polite
alike refuse to hazard even a guess at
accurate figures. The uiu'urtnlnty re-
garding loss of life and property Is
due mainly to the wide extent of tho
havoc wrought by the storm.
The miles of wrecked buildings as
yet unexplored and the numerous
UDllapicd factories toward the investi-
gation of which little progress has
been made may hide til most any num-
ber of bodies as the police have been
unable to secure anything1 like tin
accurate list of the missing.
In the factory districts many of tho
employes on duly nt tint tune the
storm broke were without relatives in
the city ami their disappearance
would scarcely bu noticed even
though they be buried In tho ruins it
is believed by the police too that
owing to tlio Muldcnnesi with which
tho crash came many tramps and
homeless ones sought shelter among'
tho buildings whien were leveled and
that nothing will be known of their
death until weeks hence their bodies
are found.
The list of known dead in St Louis
Is Kill and In Kast St Louis 1 10.
The city wns in darkness hut nijiht
repairs of the electric wires having
Won scarcely beuii and but few of
the trolley lines aro running. All
over tho stricken-district the debiis-
choked streets are crowded with
sightseers and through the dimly gas
lighted morgues a constant stream of
people is urgod forward by aisles of
police.
Q Hundreds of homes are in ruins
dozens of manufacturing plants and
dozens of business houses aro wrocks
many steamboats are gone to the bot-
tom of the river and others are dis-
mantled. Railroads of all kinds have
suffered great loss and wire nnrt pole
using companies have weeks of toll
and largo expenditures of money to
face before they will be in satisfac-
tory shape again.
The most furious work of the storm
was along llutger street Lafayette
and Chouteau avenues and tho con-
tiguous thoroughfares cast of Joffcr-
'son avnnue.
. The houses are hi the streots with
the roofs underneath buried by brick
and mortar. Und or the brick and
mortar ate household goods of every
dcscriptlonj and on top of all are up-
rooted trees and tangled masses of
wires.
There Is not a tree nor a building
standing In Lafayette park. The
wreok of tho aity hospital is so sur-
rounded by wreckage that it is barely
possible to reach It.
Uy far tho most remarkable froak of
tho" storm was ut this many wingod
house. About 300 pationts were scat-
tered through tlio wards when the
tornado struck but although the en-
tire upper story was cut off clean and
one wing razed to the ground but ono
Inmate wns killed. The viotlm was
loouted in one of tho upper stories-
and was killed by Uying urioic in tlia
deinolud wings. When the wnlU
foil out tho iouf wirao straight down
upon tho foundations und the rafters
after resting upon souud bad castings
enabled the patients to bo rosoued
without serious injury. Tho ontiro
building was rendered moloss and tho
tottering walls will bo torn down and
a new structure built.
Many of tho handsome residences
on Fourteenth street nud about La-
foyetto park aro ruined but the inojt
damage was done qii Sixth Sevontli
Eighth and Ninth und south along
Chouteau avenue in the tenement
house district.
Houses aro to be seon In nil stagos
of demolition from loss of roof to
complete destruction. In soma of
them tho front walls had fallen out
and tho tenants performed their house-
hold duties cared tor their Injuries
or mourned their dead in view of the
orowds in tho streets. From tho doors
of many of tho partially wroekad
houses Jlutternd tho blualc badge of
mourning and soarcoly a house In all
the district that did not havo some in-
jured relative friends or neighbor
within its wind-battered walls. The
path of tho storm is about a half a
mile wide and over four miles long
sweeping through the Uilokly popu-
lated southwest portion of Hastland
and across the river Into Hast St
Louis.
Colonel Wetmore. manager of the
Liggett & Myers tobacco plant which
was wrecked estimates the entire
property damage at 860o00o0 which
will be he Bays almost a total loss
owing to tho lack of cyclone Insur-
ance. Other estimates range from
$15000000 to 830000000 but the
majority of thain arc close to that
made by Colonel Wetinore.
The wreck lefi by tho lorm at-
tracted an army of ptckpoohula nud
thieves and thoy filled their trade nil
day nud all night with but few ar-
rests. There were numerous (natalities of
the robbing of dead bodies nnd fre-
quent throats of lynching tho ghouls
but few wore clumsy enough to bo
caught and thoo yho wero wore
promptly carted off by the police.
Honscholtl goods woro stolen and
In the wreek of tho wholosnlo houses
miscellaneous goods woro carried
a way nlmrtet by tho wngou load.
Many churches in all parts of tho
city suffer from tho storm. HU Fran-
cis Dm Hales' church was completely
wrevked. The .Incobi Memorial

the walls of the Lafayette Fark Pros-
bytorltin church Albion and Missouri

St. Louis is In ruins. The tornado
wliiuh swopt down upon tho city oblit-
erated block after block of business
houses and loft behind in its red trail
of death scores of human beings
burled boncnth tho wnlls of llattened
buildings or crushed to death In the
streets by the Hying debris Tho im-
provised morgues and hospitals are
fairly choked with the dead some
crushed nnd battered outof all human
ahnpu and through them llow a steady
stream of hysterical women and grim-
faced mon looking for their missing
ones. It is almost impossible to make
accurate ustlmntcs of those killed. At
tho various morgues and at St. Mary's
hospital there aro llfty-slx.
Six are in tho Illg Four freight lionso
ruins. llow many more thoro are
scuttfred about tho city in private
houses it is impossible to tell but n
conservative estimate would plnco the
total number at nt least 150. Tho
scene is simply appalling. From the
river bank to the National stock
yards a distance of over a mile
pcnrcoly a building is left standing.
The greatest slaughter was done on
tho island su called. Hero woro
located the Vandnlla freight house
and general olllcu. Of tho river boats'
warehouse nud humble abodes of

Tho place where .formerly houses nnd

literally swept by tho fury of tho
storm.
lu tlio Vandal iu general oflico alone
there were from twenty to twenty-
flvo killed the bodies of some of whom
aro still buried bononth the broken
rafters and bricks. Tho monctnry
loss cannot bo estimated but It will
run into millions.
Freight cars stand in nil shapes and
forms alniiit tho yards of tho dwell-
ings as well as tho railway yards
and several were can led beyond tho
Vaudalla embankment and" thrown

St. Lot'is Mo May 80. Tho fol-
lowing Appeal issued by the Kast St.
Louis relief committee plainly shows
the situation lu that stricken city:
"On Hie evening of May SS7 liOfl
about Sslb o'olook the olty of Kast St.
Louis 111. was visited by ono of tho
modi terrible nnd destructive torua-
doe in the history of the country
and as n result of Its foarful work at
least 200 lives have been lost and the
number of maimed und wounded we
nre unable as yet to ostimato but it
will probably run into thousands.
"The amount of damago to property
is very groat nnd it it impossible at
this time to ascertain but it Is safe to
say that at least U.OOo families are
rendered homeless. A great number
of these must depend upon charity for
shelter.
"While tho loss appears to fall upon
the poorer class of people almost
every citizen has directly or indirectly
suffered. While we regrot exceeding-
ly to oall upon the country at large in
this extremity we fuel utterly unable
to supply the absolute necessities of
thwse alllictpt) people although our
owij citizens' aro nutting forth every
elloj-t itnl are contributing liberally
and indeed mure liberally than their
means allow.
"We therefore appeal to the goner-
ositv of our sister cities and other
communities fur help in this our hour
of trouble.
"We will be pleased to recolve sub-
scriptions and assistance In any form
which may be deemed advisable.
"We the exeoutive committee have
appointed Mr. Faul W. Abt president
of tiie First National bank of this
city treasurer to whom all contribu-
tions can be fitnt."

St. Louis Mo. Mny 50. In a record
of tornadoes kept far sovon years by
the woathor bureau it appears that
the United Statos suffered from an
average of sixty n year. In the coiiso
of seven years tho funnel shaped cloud
was seen in thirty different statos.
Tills is contrary to tho impression
which many have that tho West suf-
fers from a tornado monopoly. Iq
the seven years New York stato
avernged two tornadoes a your and
so did New Kngjand. Kansas and
Illinois at fjrst glance seomed to bo
tho champion tornado states by this
record with Missouri a oloso third.
Kansas and Illinois had an average of
nearly seven tornados a yoar for the
seven years tho reoord was kept
while Missouri had five. Hut when
differenco in area was taken Into con-
sideration and the percentage of tor-
nado clouds to each l.uoo square miles
of territory was worked out It did not
appear that Kansas Illinois and Mis-
souri wero entitled to so much reputa-
tion as breeders of these peculiar
storms. During th seven years tho
percentago of tornadoes to area placed
