Twenty buildings were almost completely wrecked and hundreds of tents and great quantities of merchandise wero strewn over tho prairie. The town people aro busy this morning and soon tho wreckage will be cleared away and buildings replaced. The damago will amount to several thousands of dollars, but cannot be estimated ac curately at this time. Known Injured: Sam P. Nelson, Kansas City, may not, re cover. Don Warren, Story county, Internal, but not serious. Several others were reported Injured, but It Is believed tiono will die. The storm struck at about 8 o'clock and tamo up without warning.

Tho damage done there, however, appears to hnvo been slight and no one is reported injured. BURNES MUST SHOW BOOKS Administrator of Immense Mlsaonrl Estate llaa Malt on Hand to Hurry Dlvlxlon, KANSAS CITV, Aug. 22. A special to the Star from St. Joseph, Mo,, says: A suit for trio division or the Durnes family estate, estimated to be worth .between (10,000,000 and $12,000,000 .has been filed hero by Mary n. Moore, on of the holrs, wife of General Milton Moore cf Kansas City. A receiver is also nsked for the estate, of which Lewis C. Durnes, president of tho National Hank of St. Joseph, Is administrator. Mrs. Moore claims ore-seventh of about one-third of the estate, which covers' valuable property III St. Louis, St. Joseph and Joplln, Mo., and Leaveuworth and Atchison, Kan. The suit charges Durnes with withholding the books and refusing to permit an Investiga tion of the affairs of tho estate. Among tho other defendants Is Ellas Oatcha, man ager of tho famous Qranby mine in tho Joplln district, valued at $5,000,000. The Durnes family had been prominent In northwest Missouri since pioneer days. Threo of tbo flvo brothers, Daniel D., J. N. and Calif F,, controlled the commercial and political destinies of that part of the state for many years. They located at Weston, Mo., and, became rich through merchandis ing and when Weston became decadent re moved to St. Joseph, where thoy engaged In the banking business and other commer cial enterpriser Much -of their earnings were Invested In lands and today the es tate Is one of tho largest in tho state of Missouri. Daniel D. Durnes was the acknowledged head of tho family until his death and by his will he bequeathed to his two brothers all of his estate and' also all of ht .children, with the request that the 1st. ler, be adopted, reared and cared for and After Dinner To assist digestion, relieve distress after eating or drinking too heartily, to prevent constipation, take ' Hood' Pill old everywhere. 25 casta.

Humes became the head of tho fam ily on his brother's death and continued In control of the estate until he was stricken with apoplexy In congress. Soon 'afterward the entire estate, excepting a part of the holdings of Mrs. Mooro were merged Into a corporation, which obtained a charter, with capital stock of 1100,000, divided into 1,000 shares of. $100 each. Mrs. Moore, tho plaintiff In' the suit, did not become a stockholder, ns she, had dis posed of the major part of her property. Calvin Durnes managed the corporation and its value had almost quadrupled Itself at the time of his death, In 1898. He left no will. .There was In trust 150,000 shares of the corporation and slnco his death there has never -been a division of ...this money Mrs, Moore alleges that Calvin ,F.

FRIENDLY FLEET FOLLOWS CHALLENGER Nrrrr Stennt Whistle In the llarhor Screams Salute to Sir Thomna' Yacht LotiKer Trip Mnr lie Taken Outmlrie the' Honk. NEW YORK, Aug. 22. Sir Thomas Lip ton's new challenger for the America's cup, Shamrock 11, had its first trial spin in New York lower bay today and,' al though it only .lasted ninety minutes, it was a most satisfactory performance from start to finish, . Sir 'Thomas Llpton nnd Designer George L. Watson, both of whom were on board the yacht during Its trial, expressed them selves as perfectly satisfied with the re sult. In sailing about eight miles to wind ward against a two-knot breeze the boat covered the distance In fifty-seven min utes and tho reach back -of six miles in forty minutes. Tho wind was fresh and fairly steady from about south southeast and of about twelve knots' strength. The yncht carried mainsails, working topsail, forestaysall and Jib. At times, while on the wind, the yacht put its lceratl under a trifle, but Bhowed Itself well able to carry sail and appeared to be quite as stiff as either Constitution or Columbia. Its sails set remarkably well tor the first time out. The mainsail, a splendid piece of duck with narrow cloths and wide seams and of the crosscut' pat tern, was set for tho first time today. It fitted to perfection, with the exception per haps of a slight looseness In the leach, which can bo remedied by Inserting three batters, for which pockets are already sup plied. The headsalls Bet well, as did the jlb-headcd topsail carried. The trial wafl all In smooth water, ex cept during tho last mile of the windward work, when Shamrock passed out by Coney Island point. Tliero a slight easterly swell made It pitch a little, but not enough to stop Its headway to any extent. Tho boat makes very little fuss under Its lee bow and carries hardly any quartering wave. Its. wake Is clean and smooth and, from observations taken from directly astern while It was closely-hauled, Its sails trim very flat and It Is able to lie within four points of the wind with every, sail full. Many thought its "pointing" was fully as close as that of the Ilcrrcshoff boats, but that remains to be seen. Yncht U "Well nalunced. Tho yacht is bo perfectly balunced "on the wind" that It carries neither lco nor weather holm, Its long tiller being exactly amidships. During tho eight or ten tacks It made to fetch from Its anchorage, to tho buoy at tho Junction of the swash and main ship channel, where It turned back, tho average time from "full to full" In stays was about seventeen seconds. It was plain, however, that Captain Sycamore was not putting 'the boat through its best paces In that direction. The crew trimmed and handled sails with that smartness and pre cision that shows experience and a thorough ltuowledga of their ship. Sir Thomas Llpton announced upon bis arrival at Shamrock's anchorage off Stable ton, Staten Island, this morning, that Sham rock would sail at 3:30 p. m. After a thorough Inspection of the yacht on deck and below he held a brief con Bultatlon with Captain Sycamore and Navi gator Hamilton, then going over to tho Associated Press tug Unique, ho greeted all tho newspaper men most cordially. Then he and his party went on board Erin to lunch. At 2:30 p. m. the cover was taken off Shamrock's mainsail and In fifteen minutes that wonderfully handsome Ratsey creation was hoisted. 'Sir Thomas boarded Sham rock from his launch at 2:25. He was ac companied by Designer Watson, Hon. Charles Russell and J. R. Illlllard. As1 Scon as the anchor was hoisted the Jib was broken out from(lts stops and Sham rock filled away on the starboard tack, heading across the bay for tho Day Ridge shore. ' , Steamer ijnlnte the Yncht. As It came In stays two minutes -later tho. forestay. sail was Bet and the yacht was then fairly under way for Its trial spin. Every passing steamer saluted the handsome yacht as It slipped away to the southward at a pace that sot the spec tators wondering. Short tacks brought it well out Into the Narrows. As It passed but by tho forts It caught tho freshening Drocze from seaward' and, heeling down, traveled still faster, giving the tugs aomo trouble" to keop up. The boat spun about to tho starboard tack In sixteen, seconds and stood Into Gravcscnd bay for six min utes. . Coming back, then, Shamrock stood across the main stilp channel to Craven Shoal buoy and on tho next tack fetched Coney Uland point, going at an eleven knot olip. All hands, except Captain Syca more and Navigator Hamilton, were snug gled 'close up under tho wcatberrall. .Syca more' stood down to leeward, handling the tiller ropes, with Hamilton at his elbow, watching tho west bank buoys, ready to give tho word "ready about!" Just when It looked as if Shamrock, by lis excellent pointing, would be able to fetch clear down to the southwest spit on the port tack andwhlte Us rail was awash under tho pressure of the still freshening breeze, down went tho helm and around it spun to tho other tack when opposite the swash channel buoy, and it was kept off for home. Good Work to Windward. The windward work had been a splendid exhibition and now Shamrock began to run nway to tho northward at a twolve-knot clip, with Ita great mainsail and Its pon derous boom swung broad off to port. Sandy Hook boats, steam yachts, tugs, In fact, every vessel that had a whlatlo, sa luted Shamrock and its two consorts, Erin and the tug James Lawrence, all the way up to the anchorage off Stapleton. Shamrock lowered .Its mainsail out In the bay and tho running time wan calculated up to the time that It began to lower Its mainsail. After tho yanht'B anchor was down Sir Thomas boarded tho Asioclatcd Press tug and told the reporters that Shamrock would go out for .a long trial Bpln tomor row, extending down to Sandy Hook, and perhaps, It thero was clear weather and a good brczc, It might try to cover tho Amer Ica's'cup course outside tho Hook of fifteen miles to windward and back. Sir ThomaB with a party of guests will go to Oyster Day In Erin On Saturday to 'witness tho races between Constitution and Columbia on Long Island sound, under tho management of tho Seawanhaka-Cor-Inthlan Yacht club, whose guest he will bo at dinner thqt night. Shamrock will moor. at, Sandy Hook after Its trial tomorrow and will -not come to New York again until It Is time to be measured and. docked for the cup races, David Darrie, Sir Thomas Llpton'a rep resentative, announced tonight that Sham rpek will bo towed down byErln about 11:30 a. m. tpS.-py? zVa wlu'tt Its trial sJn '.ora off Sandy Hook.

Old Defender He ope im Kntlre (Inrntton of Which Hunt Shall Gnnrd the Cup. OYSTER HAY, N. Y., Aug. 22. Columbia gave Constitution a good, sound beating today twice around the Seanwanhaka tri angular course. On corrected time the oldor boat won by two minutes and five seconds, und on elapsed time by one min ute and thtrty-nlno seconds. Dut the figures do not represent tho de cisiveness of Cblumbla's victory, for as a. matter of fact It beat tho new boat twice. The first time around the triangle of four teen and three-quarter' miles Columbia gained over Ave minutes. Then a shift of wind on the short leg across the sound put Constitution upon even terms, when a new race rns practically started, the breeze now coming true again. This tlmo Columbia gained over a minute and a halt. It was a day of fluky sound breezes, but If either boat got nny adrantago from the frequent change In tho wind it was Con stitution. It was at no time a whltecap breeze and the sea was smooth, conditions Which havo heretofore 'always favored Con stitution. The new boat did not seem to havo any of tho speed it has shown tn light airs. It was sluggish ou tho starting line and, although the two yachts crossed al most at the same minute with a one-gun start, Columbia romped off and took a lead of an eighth of a mile while Constitution was gathering way. To bo sure Constitution was trying a new malnsnll and It set very badly during tho first r,ound, but It kept getting better and better nnd for tho last fifteen miles of the course was drawing very well. Then, too, the club topsail was almost useless In tho windward work., The club was badly bent and tnu canvas did littlo work when Constitution was closchaulcd. Hut all this does not account for Its de feat. Even on the last leg of the race, In a close race, when tho boats had exactly tho same wind and Constitution's sails wero apparently drawing for all they were worth, Columbia added over a mlnuto to Its lead. With the International contest less than a month away, today's raco reopens tho whole cup defender proposition, and the yachtsmen aro guessing again. Where Columbia Gained. Whon tho day' raco started Columbia was ten seconds ahead and In the better berth ,and when It had rounded the first mark It had gained fifty-eight seconds. On the rext beat of live and a halt miles to the second mark Columbia .made the- great est gain of the day. It both outpointed and outtootcd Constitution and was leaving the latter adtcrn in a most surprising manner. The wind was blowing not over nine knots and was serving both boats alike. After rounding the second mark and coming down to the- home mark Columbia was first to run Into the calm streak between .tho winds. Constitution, keeping out In the sound and carrying the northerly breozc down with It, ran up on Columbia before tho latter was able to trim sheets. Dut notwithstanding this when1-the first round of the course was finished Columbia had gained five minutes and eighteen seconds. Doth broke spinnakers, with 'booms guyed well forward, and stood for the first mark on the second round. About a mile short of tho turn Columbia ran Into a calm. Con stitution carried wind up with It and closed up the gap. Columbia a Smart Mover. For some minutes the two boats drifted along side by side. Then an easterly breeze came up and Columbia, being to windward, took It first and luffed around the mark. After turning the wind headed Columbia and Constitution ran. up alongside almost oil even terms nnd to windward. Barr was not to be outdone,' however, and he luffed out, carrying Constitution well Into the sound and high of. the mark. Then he bore away and stood for the mark with a good full. After rounding the two racers camo for tho finish llhe with" a close reef, the wind -now blowing a good' ten-knot gait, the strongest of tho day. It was a constant and sure gain for Columbia all the way home and the two boats crossed the finish line nearly two minutes apart.. Columbia sailed to Its mooring at Gtcncoe, while Constitution came back Into Oyster bay in town. Mr. Duncan, on coming ashore to the clubhouse tonight, said that he had no explanations to make tor the defeat of Constitution ex cept that the club of tho big topsail bent up so much that the sail was almost use less.

STAR PLANT PREPARING TO RESUME Corporation Men "Feel Well Satisfied vrlth the Prospect dm cnuir Stone Doomed for i Arbitrator. j PITTSBURG, Pa.. Aug. 22.-Atlde fr.un the partial equipment of (he Star plant ot the Amorlcan Tlnptate company, and tho preparation for Its Immediate rrsumptlcn of business, thero were no special develop ments In the strike situation in this city today. No further troublo occurred at the Pennsylvania tube works and at a.l ctber strike points quiet reigns.' The Amalgamated people point with pride to the conduct of their members in re straining themselves from violence when they see nonunlonlsts being marched Into the mills, to take their place. The Incident at the Star plant this morning Is given as an cxainplo of special strength nnd, to us'j an Amalgamated official's expression, shows that the men have been educated to th knowledge that their strongest weapon In such cases Is silence and submission until It Is demonstrated that the mills cannot bo operated successfully without the aid of the skilled men now on strike. ' The steel men, on the other hand, are highly pleased with their success in man ning the Star plant and say that If the men thoy secure nro not molostcd It will be but a short time until all of their mills will be In full operation and doing good work. Whllo the strikers claim that four ot the new men at the Star plant have deserted the company and say that others wcuid leavo It thty could get out of the mill, Su perintendent Harper maintains that he has 100 men at work, that none has deserted and that the men ran go and come from the mill as they please. Strikers VlKllant but Quiet. Tho Painter mill has 250 men at work and tho management expects to be running full handed by next week. Two mills are being operated at the Lindsay & McCutcheou plant, ono ot them the tcu-tnclT mill. No Blgn ot a break in tho Carnegie Upper and Lower Union plants made Its appearance todAy. McKeesport is still completely tied up, but an attempt may be made to start the Domler tlnworks tonight with men from oitslde points. Tbo strikers are still vigilant as pickets, but aro keeping quiet and making no threats. At Irondale the tlnptate company gained another victory today by the successful start ot one act ot rolls. There are said to be enough men In the plant to man ono mill ono turn and the company officials say that now the break has been made they will get the men back. A delegation of strikers from Wellsvlllo went to Irondale tonight with the Inten tion of having a talk with tho men at. work and to try to persuade them to quit. , At Amalgamated headquarters In this city tho day was devoted almost entirely to routine business and nothing ot unusual Importance occurred. President Shaffer said tonight that no movement has as yet been mudo by cither side looking to arbi tration t mediation. There was, however, a tendency among many ot tho labor leaders today to discuss the possibility of arbitra tion and on every side was heard mentioned the name of Governor Stone as an arbi trator or conciliator, and It Is said he will be asked to tender his good offices In this direction. ' FEARS THE OMNIVOROUS WEST Austrian Economist Sounds nn Alarm (to Central,, Europe America m Commefolal Conqueror. f VIENNA, Aug. 22. Prof. Edwin Suess, the eminent publicist and paleontologist, has given an Interview respecting the in dustrial and political preponderance of the United States that attracts much attention, especially as it confirms the anti-American views' of continental manufacturers and economists. The professor, surveying International relations from the standpoint ot a political philosopher, observed that while tho French revolution was occasioned by tho abusos of tho privileged classes, tho pres ent situation has been caused by a revolu tion ot material conditions. .Tho .declining national sentiment should bo replaced by a movement for tho oommon dofense of the central European states against the Amorlcan, trusts, which are moving to con quer tho foreign markets more surely than thoy could be conquered by, battleships. The' American balance of trade has reached an. unparalleled figure. .It was a serious question if the present political units .of central Europe are strong, enough to make an effective defense, taking Into account the physical, conditions. Tha present shift ing of tho center of gravity ot tho world's forces would create threo great units China, Russia and America. When China was equipped with railroads the people would find that It had tho most capable merchants and the cheapest labor. Rus sia would havo the largest army and be the greatost peasant .state. European capital would flow to the United States and would be an important Increase of Its economic prosperity. , Of the three the United States had de cidedly the lead. The policy was commer cial sggresslon, beyond a doubt, and states like the American union and Russia had gained far moro in tho way of the mobiliza tion of their powers from tho construction ot railroads than such countries as Oor many and Franco.
