In St. Lou la and vicinity aa a reault of
the moat terrible storm I hat ever vlslt
ed t up I aection. ilulldlnga of every
description are In rulna, and, as a re
ault, 'hundreds of people are reported
dead and Injured, but, until order la re
stored, It will be Impoaalble lo make
any definite statement. Reports are In
circulation that seven steamer* lying
til wharf boats have lo-en sunk, with
all on lioard.
The city was left In darkness, us the
electric lights and trolley wire* were
blown down.
The storm broke out about & o’clock
Wednesday afternoon after u most op
pressively hot day, and the rain begun
to fall. It soon developed Into a fierce
thunderstorm, with the wind from the
east. A little later the wind had
gained a velocity of eighty miles un
hour, driving the rain before it and
tearing loose signs, cornices, chimneys,
and everything in Its way. Matty
buildings of every description were de
molished. and others set on Ore by
lightning and crossed wires.
The street* were full of people going
home from work, and a panic ensued
as soon as the storm broke. Men were
buildings, horses and carriages were
sent flying here and there, and falling
wires, full of deadly fluid, added to
the horror of the scene.
.Suddenly the wind veered around to
the west and completed the desiruc
f Ion. It hsasserted by some of those who
have traversed the down-town part
of the city that there are but few build

races stopped his work long enough to
remark: "There goes the grandstand.”
Then his wire collapsed and nothing
more was heard from him. In a few
seconds the same message was re
ported from Lexington. Ky.. with the
additional Information that fully 150
people were dead. ThlH Information
was subsequently corroborated by the
operator of the Wabash road at Deca
tur, who said that In his second mes
sage received from Fast St. I/Ouls It
was declared that the grand stand at
the races was down and that fully 150
people were burled in the ruins.
At Fast St. Louis tnc destruction
seemed greatest. H. C. Klee, Western
(,'nlon manager at the relay depot,
climbed across the demolished bridge
and reported the National hotel, the
Tremont House, the Martell House, the
DeWolf cafe, the Hexel Milling com
pany's mill, Horn's cooper shop, and
a great many dwellings east of there as
far as Fifth street, gone and many peo
ple killed. The Haltlmore and Ohio
and Vandallu round-house, the Stand
ard oil works, the Fast St. Ixtuls and
Orescent elevators, and twelve freight
hoBses on the levee, are demolished.
I)lu«l«r> on Water.
The steamer J. J. Odell of the Illi
nois Kiver packet was blown from Its
wharf at the foot of Morgan street,
crashed Into the second pier of the Fads
bridge, and sank. Her boilers blew up
before she disappeared. She had a
crew of 12, and three women passen
gers, besides her captain, Oeorge Town
send an old rlverman, who bad his
home In 8t. [/nils.
Three of her crew, Jack Morrissey,
I’at Milan, and a man named Moore,
reached land safely. The two former
jumped before the explosion and caught
driftwood. Moore was blown overboard
by the explosion, and was cut about
the head, but managed to swim ashore,
Three others of the crew clung to the
pier and made their way up to the
bridge proper. There Is no way of es
timating the number of lives that were
lost oil the river craft.
Holla »f Hatuo House l,oal.
The tug Belle of Haton Rouge, which
whs anchored up the river, was carried
far down the river, rolling over and
over, and finally struck the raft of the
Wiggins Ferry Company at the front
of Choteau avenue, where It sunk.
As the first evidence of the approach
ing storm began to appear every en
gineer on the river got up full steam
In order to be able to combat the ele
ments. Had It been anything but a tor
nado It Is probable this would have
aided the crews of the steamers In sav
ing their craft. Hut the onslaught was
so violent that the crews found their
efforts only sufficed to aid them slight
ly In directing the <ourse of their
boats.
The steamer Pittsburg of the Dia
mond Joe line, the steamer City of
Vicksburg and the Providence of the
Columbian Exposition Company, the
Captain Monroe of the Anchor line, and
many of the smaller craft were pitched
and tossed about until the final blast
rent them from their anchorage.
The storm Bwept diagonally across
the river and struck the Illinois hunk
with increased fury. The loss of life In
the water on the east side seems to have
been light, as everybody was cautioned
not to Jump and everybody was carried
afely to land.
The Itelle of Calhoun and the Llbbie
Condor, which were moored near Clio*
teau avenue, were almost totally broken
up The El leu Q. Smith, the harbor
■ at, was blown away down the river,
md was wrecked near Arsenal Island.
| It Is thought no lives were lost on this
j boat. Ti e steamer Ed Harvester of ihe
Missouri Valley Transportation Com

carried down ihe river.

decks.
When the boat struck the bridge
those on board had to dodge to escape
the iron work of the structure. The
mate saw there was no hope if they
stayed on bourd. Jennie Mitchell was
the first to climb on the Ironwork. She
wus assisted by two of the men, while
the mate stayed on deck to help Emma
Nolan. As she swung herself to the
wrecked part of tne bridge Is Just east
of the big tower, near the Illinois shore,
and extends east for about 300 feet.
The entire upper portion, traversed by
street cars and carriages, la carried
away, while the tracks beneath are
burled In the debris, in some places
eight feet deep. At midnight a report
er penetrated the mud and debris to
the burning St. Louis refrigerator ware
house. Several Injured Bremen had
been taken from the wreck. an.l three
more were known to be In the ruins.

beams the boat drifted away, and sank
before the eyes of the horrified crew.
Slowly, with the wind blowing at a
force that caused the big structure to
rock like a cradle, the three Brave men
assisted the women on the laborious
climb to the roadway. Several times
they were nearly blown off. They dual
ly reached the railroad track on the
bridge, where they lay down until the
full forte of the storm was passed. Then
they crawled to the Washington avenue
station.
There were rumors Thursday that
the excursion steamer Grand Kepublic.
belonging to the Columbian Excursion
Company, had gone to the bottom vlth
500 excursionists. An officer of the com
pany promptly denied this. He said
the boat left St. Ixtuis at noon to go
to Alton, where It was registered for an
excursion at 8 o’clock that night. The
storm might have blown the boat away,
but in that case only the crew would
have been Imperiled, and these men
could swim to safety. She is safe.
Wild Kao* with Death.
While the storm was at its highest
the passenger train on the Chicago &
Alton railway pulled out on the bridge
from the Missouri side. It was on Its
way east. Engineer Scott had only
proceeded a short distance when he
realized the awful danger which threat
ened the train. The win 1 struck the
coaches, at first causing them to careen.
At that time he was about half wi#y
across. Overhead the poles were .'map
ping and tumbling Into the river, while
large stones were shifting loose from
their foundations and plunging into
account. Down wires, wild currents
of electricity, crushed buildings, all
contributed to this element of destruc
tion.
The alarm Hystem was paralyzed.
Approaches were blocked; a $200,000
conflagration on the St. Louis side was
supplemented by a dozen lesser fires,
In East St. Louis a mill was burned,
and two other considerable losses were
sustained. To the enormous total the
fires added at least $500,000.
The Catholic church of St, John of
Nepomuk, at the corner of Twelfth am)
Soulard streets, was razed to the
ground, except the front, which stands
like a tower, all the side and back walls
being completely destroyed. It was a
very large and handsome church. Now
there only remains the arches and tur
rets of the front and enough of the
walls to show the beautiful style of its
architecture. The debris lies In the
street at the side and inside the build
ing. the side walls Just projecting above
it.
There Is scarcely any debris in front,
leaving the front view very natural ex
cept for the ghastly vacancy shown
through the windows.

H. W. Fraukenfeld, the St. latuls
weather ofllcer. was a busy man during
and after the storm In an interview
he said:
"For the past week the weather in the

out the state of Missouri high tempera
ture and humidities prevailed with
south winds. The day would be popu
larly termed ‘warm, hazy, muggy.'
“Although reports are missing, owing
to the widespread destruction, it is now
evident the storm area moved slowly
east during the day. The barometer
commenced to fall at 9 o'clock and by
noon It had fallen a thirteenth of an
Inch. About this time the sky became
covered with dark, thickly-cumulated
strata, which by 6 o’clock formed a
mass of stratus cloud, which commenc
ed to assume a light-green color in the
northeast.
"This green color slowly advanced
from the northeast, spread more to the
west and north. At the same time the
temperature commenced to fall.
“The normal cyclonic circulation thus
brought winds of different tempera
tures and humidities Into an upper posi
tion, with the results that a decided
Instability was produced In the atmos
phere und u violent secondary storm
center was created. The barometer
continued to fall rapidly and by 5 p. m.
it had fallen .25 of an Inch since noon.
The wind was becoming variable, with
a tendency toward a northerly direc
tion until lightning und thunder had
commenced, at 4:30 p. m.
“At 6:04 p. in. the storm broke forth
in all its fury; the wind changed sud
denly to northwest, with rapidly In
creasing velocity, and the rnln fell In
torrents. The green cloud still remain
ed In the west und north, but the storm
moved toward the southeast with large,
angry detached musses of cumulus
clouds crossing each other. At 4:16 p.
m. the wind churiged from the north,
having the greatest velocity In the his
tory of Ht. Louis. About 6 p. in. the
wind had reached about 62 miles and
later on It chunged In Its direction to
the southeast.
“From 6:04 p. m. to 6:04 p. m. 1.38
Inches of rain fell. When the ruin end
ed at 9:05 p, rn. 1.53 inches had fallen
in all. The electrical storm was of un
usuul volume. The sky was almost one
continuous blaze of light und the clouds
extended far Into the south."
