Yesterday But Throe
Bodies Found Deep
Fork Doomlnif.
The Cottonwood river is not only
treacherous but agonizingly evasive
as well. It refuse to rIvo up Its se-
crets and will not tell the number of
lives It carried on its surging boHOiu to
the raging Cimarron which in turn
perhaps transferred them to the Ar-
kansas. Despite the fact that fie Hood has
receded and the scene of destruction
in West Guthrie "alloy is laid bare no
more is known at this writing of the
nuaibor of pcoplo who periehed than
at tha time when the cataclysm was
making 4is grandest sortie. Only three
bodies wero recovered yesterday. The
others who perished am either buried
in the quicksands of the Cimarron or
have iloated to the waters of the Ar-
kansas. Time can only toll how many
perished.
West Guthrie yesterday presented a
scone of desolation. I'retty dwellings
had given placo to mounds of mud;
trees were uprooted; gardens obliter-
ated; streets merely yawning gulllca.
All wsb ruin.
It is estimated that 250 dwellings to
say nothing of Btables aud outhouBee
were destroyed or washed away. At
least 200 were askew.
Searching parties weto busy all day
yesterday but little hopo was tho por-
tion of those who have missing oncp.
Stealing tho Wreckage.
J J. Holes and Fred MUllken rowed
to tho Cimarron yesterday with their
wlyes to survey Hood tcenos. They say
between tho railroad bridge and tho
Cimarron wagon bridgo there is a per-
fect jam of wreckage. At the Cimar-
ron railroad bridge there is 8 feet of
wator ur.d a half mile of debris. They
beliove many bodies will bo found at
that placo. Several trunks and chests
were in the wreckage. Mr. Milliken
'phoned The Leader last night and
said somo action should bo taken by
tho authorities to stop tho steulii g of
wreckage. He declares that men hov-
ered over the djbrls llko vultures yes-
terday picking up and hauling away
whatever of valuo they could ilnd.
To Search For Owen's Jlody.
Tho A. U. U. W. lodge hold a moot-
ing laBt n'ght and decided to institute
a search for the body of George Owen
a member of the order. A commltteo
composed of J.J. Holes chairman; T.
It. Tingle Lee Uomshor Frank Gotch-
ell and C. J Tuohey was appointed to
take charge of tho search and also to
relieve tho sufferings of all members
of tho order aud their families.
Miles of Track Gone.
E. E Ilrown of tho Times-Journal
and Telephone Manager Wllsou came
up from Oklahoma City as far as How-
ard on the train yesterday. From
Howard they walked to Guthrie Wil-
son says the scenes about Seward aro
appallingr The destruction is im-
mense. Four iniles of Santa Fe track
was washed away and a half a mile of
track cannot be found. In some places
the rails were twisted and turned over.
A big force of men is at work repair
ing the trackB
Noble Ladies Do Good Work.
Groat work Is being done by the
Ladies' llenovolent Roolety. Tho ladies
are ocoupylng the ltrooks building and
all day yesterday thirty members were
engaged In making garments for flood
sufferers.
Cimarron Killed With Debris
Col. Hob Mclloynolds and Manager
Illlncoe of tho Ullncoe A. Thompson
lumberyard were tho first to venture
down the Cottonwood yesterday moinlnpj
Their boat was cast loose at the foot of
Noble avenue and shot down the stream
with the speed of a mill-race. Col. Me-
Reynolds thus describes the scene. "The
wreckage of buildings and furniture was
to be seen on either side; bedding and
cl thing hung high In the branches of
the tree that fringe either shorn. Nov.
aud then we taw huge drifts of the
wreckage piled vy among the tree an
Isdoscrimlnate mass of household beloi g
Ings and carcasses of dead animals. The
current was so swift that with the Hat-
bottomed unwleldly dinkey joat we were
in we dared not nuke a landing; besides.
it were useless at tho present stage of the
water as It would have been Impossible
to rescue any bodies. There were pi opin
along the banks carrying away any arti-
cles of value obtainable among the ds-
hrla Whan wa rnHphul th fMmarmn
NOT RISEN.
mer tin' scene was appalllug Thor
wero huge choppy waes that hreatened
destruction to our boat every Instant.
Hv wntor mirks I saw the Cimarron had
only recently rl'en about thro feet and
you can Imagine what mighty cascades
must have formed Wednosday with a
voluino of water a mile wide and fifty
feot In depth plowing Into It. Ns boat
could possibly have lived any moie
than It could have shot Niagara Fall.
To others who contemplate tho trip I
wish to warn thorn to keep away from
the palisades like bonds uf the Cimarron
at the rains are causing huge mussos of
earth to rail Into tho river e imu u
narrow escape from one of those laud-
slides before wo leached tho Cimarron
bridgo."
Aged Womnn's Experience.
Mrs. llachel McKlnnoy aged W
climbed upon an arbor and clung tlurn
for hours until knocked olf by flouting
.sidewalks. She foil into tho Hood wont
under twlco was uarrled some distance
and struck a house to which she clung
and latei broke In a window with her
hands and climbed In remaining there
until 3 p. m. when she was rescued Her
hands are badly cut by glass Iml other-
wise shots iiniujuied.
Luck of Newcomers.
Mr. and Mrs. K. M. Washington who
lately moved to Guthrlo from the coun-
try wero caught In tho flood and barely
escaped with clothing enough to cover
them wading waist deep In the water
and carriiiti their cfilldrtn who wore
barefooted nnd bartiheaded. They did
not hear tho alarm and knew nothing of
the danger until the "water dashed upon
the house. '

Ashcroft. J. F. Loe teacher and an-
other man wero clinging to tho top of a

When t lie tomb wusreuehed. a strange

hecined to be liliich hllbx-ks. This
somber background wits formed by tho
thousands uf spectator who filled tho
HtuniU built up front the ground ou
both shies of the tomb to the level of
the steps that tend to its musslve doors.
To the south where the loopiirouml
the oval met the lttversltle drive thero
were two solid lines of Immunity. On
all four sides of the monument ovul
the Ntunils were ptickeii to overflowing
while feeing thoso crowds was the
great muss of uager slgliUeocs who
had not been utllolally provided foi.
The solemn service of dedication
