I DEATH IN THE STORM'S WAKE.
TheTerrlble Calamity That Has Be
fallen Pennsylvania Cities.
A Hundred Victims of the Storm's
Fury at Reading.
Searching for the Dead-
Kkadino, Pa., Jan. 10. The cyclone
of yesterday left the entire city in dark-
ness, which wa9 only relieved by the
electric lights and huge bonfires, which
shed their lurid glare on the scene of
death. All night long brave and willing
hands assisted in the work of rescuing
the victims of the mill accident. The
list of fatal cases will reach 100, and may
Iw more. The hospital and undertaking
establishments arc filled with victims.
Physicians are all busy, and many pri-
I vate houses have been opened for the
accommodation of the injured.
For the purpose of offering need aid,
I Mayor Kennedy, at 2 o'clock this morn
ing. issued a proclamation appealing to
professional, business and other citizens
who may be able to favoriably report, to
meet at the court house this afternoon at
1:30 to divise ways and means to aid the
injured and assist the families of those
who perished last night in the fall of the
silk mill, and at the Philadelphia &
Ueadiag paint shop.
The work of rescue was greatly retard-
ed by the singular manner in which the
mi n 1 t. i- 1 r 11
null collapsed. It did not fall, but was
I llilc rrnulmrl 1..Wn fall;,,, in ,.nn

iiseit. JNot a vesiage ot tne walli are
maining standing above the stone foun
dation, the rafters and timbers of the
I .,;,,;.;;,, ii ,i;P-tiMna Aa
noonDS projecting 111 all directions. AS
the building was steam heated, the ruins
did not take fire, otherwise not one of
the unfortunates could possibly have
escaped death in its most appalling form.
Teams of every description, omnibuses,
funeral coaches, fire wagons, hospital
vans, and private vehickles were pressed
into service, and were running rapidly
to and from the scene of disaster all
night long, bearing the bodies of the
wounded, dying and dead to their homes
or the various hospitals.
From the statement of some of those
who escaped from the building it appears
to have gone d.qwn, in an, jnsant. There
was a loud crash of breaking timbers,
and the persons in the mill rushed toward
the main doors. A good maty succeeded
in getting out, while four girls saved
themselves by jumping from the third
story windows. The first rumbling noise
was followed instantly by the falling of
the building, tlje ujjp.r stories, going
first with their load of hqman beings.
Had it not been for the fact that hardly
anv of the hands were on the third and
fourth floors at the time, scarsely a life
would have been saved.
Up to 8 o'clock this morning a large
majority of the victims were in the ruins.
George Grinishw, jq&t b,efqre. daylight
gave out a list of tle killed and. missing
and thirty-four injured, who are ac
counted for. Tlje list accQtjuts for
about two hundred of the employes.
This afternoon a largely attended
meeting was held at the court house to
deyise means for the relief of sufferers.
Over $5,000 was subscribed in an instant
The work of hunting for the dead con
tinued all day, and tb,e scenes surround
ing the mill were but a repetition of
what ensued during the whole of last
night It has been determined to push
the work of rescue all night.
THE MILITIA CALLED OCT.
The incoming trains this morning con
tinued pouring into this city their crowds
of strangers, and at noon it was estimated
that 10,000 persons surrounded the scene
if the silk mill disaster. These greatly
interfered with the work of, removing
the debris and taking out the dead and
finally the Reading artillery, the city's
only military organization, were called
out and ordered to the ruing to keep
ba k the crowds. This morning eight
more bodies were taken from the ruins.
I'll j confusion is great, and a full list of
the dead and injured is not obtainable.
Considerable money has been contributed
for the relief of the sufferers and benefits
have also been arranged.
The latest estimate of the killed has
been reduced to fifty, but this is nncer-
t -in, as no one knows bow many human
beings still lie beneath the mountain of
brick, mortar and timber.

The exact number of victims will not be
known for seueral days yet until the
debris is all cleared away.
The death list now foots up to 11,

of tue wounded are in a critical condition
anu ineir ueains are momentarily ex
pected. None of the men reported miss
ing have been heard from and is is be
lieved that at least eight persons are still
buried in the debris.
The rescuing party numbers fully 100
men, but they are not making much
headway. The police are satisfied that
at least twenty persons are still in the
wreck. An order has been issued by the
police authorities telling all persons hav
ing friends or relatives missing to report
them as early as possible at police head
quarters. At 1 o'clock this afternoon the list of
dead had increased to fourteen. A tour
of the hospitals this morning showed all
the wounded doing well with the excep
tion of seven, who are in a critical con-
dition.

THE DAKOTA LECISLATUE.
Bills Introduced Providing for Two
Constitutional Conventions.
Hismakck, Dak., Jan. l!. A number
of important bills were introduced in
the legislature yenterday. One in the
reconvening of the constitutional con
vention for South Dakota to consider the
question of changing the name and
boundaries of the proposed state of South
Dakota. It gives the constitution power
to make provision for the flection of a
state legislature and state otlicers. This
bill contemplates that the same delegates
who acted in the last convention phall be
delegatis in the next. A bill was also
introduced in the council providing for
a constitutional convention to be held in
llisinarek on April 510, to prepare a con
stitution for the proposey state of North
Dakota.
la the house action is being taken to
relieve Dakota of the reputation she hns
gained for divorces, and lor beiny the
asylum of eloping anil runaway couples.
It extends the time of residence required
before action for divorce can be brought
from ninety days to one year.
The bill of the greatest interest to the
railroad interests of the country, and
especially to the manipulators in Wall
street, is one introduced in the council
repealing the gross earnings tax, which
iniposeg a tax of 9 per cent on the com
panies doing business In the territory.
mi ...
I ne ouject or repealing this law is to
force the companies to pay taxes on their
lands, which, in the case of the Northern
Pacific, would this year be over foGO, 000.
The Northern Pacific claims that its lafid
is exempt from taxation by congressional
enactment, but tfcc recent decision of the
