MIKXCIIEI) 11Y CI.OI'I'LLUHSTS. ST. Loins. June 22.—Tho heavy storm which swept through Kansas Friday has, as far as heard from, done incalculable damage to growing crops. At Tort Scott large dams broke about fifteen minutes after the storm began and the bottom lands were completely flooded, houses were swept away like straws, and It is foared that many lives are lost. The water in what is known as Huck run bottoms Is fully a mile in width. Numbers of men, women and ohildren can bo seen on roof tops and in trees by spectators. but it is impossible to reach them. During the storm and overflow last night at lluck run a rescuing party were compelled to abandon their boat.: two of the men saved their lives by catching hold of the trees, but the other, John Connalln, aged 10, cunght hold of a limb which broke, and ho wits washed away. There is no doubt that he was drowned. No other lives were lost.
KANSAS CITY, MO., June 23.—The Star's Kunsas specials report a terrible rain and windstorm in tho vicinity of Osceola Friday night. About six Inches of water fell. IS rent damage was done to growing crops. A passenger train on the Kansus City, Osceola & Southern road was ditched 3 miles from there, killing Engineer Lighter and a man named Crandall.
At Arkansas City, southwest of Fort Scott, the storm developed into a cyclone. Little damage was done In the city Itself, only a few barns and outhouses on the southern edge of the city being demolished. Fifteen miles from the city the cyclone destroyed the homes of John Bowman, M. Bennett, Sam Hrown, K. Kersey and William Hrown. All the inmates escaped without serious injury except Mrs. Elizabeth Bowman, mother of John Bowman, who was fatally injured. A daughter of Mr. Bennett was in the cellar and was burled under the falling debris, but escaped unhurt A large number of barns and granaries were also wrecked. The damage to crops in a radius of 20 miles from Arkansas City is estimated at $50,000. Much of the wheat there was in the shock, and, although drenched with rain, a great part of*1t en be saved. The principal damage was to growing crops.
At Emporia the storm fcas a tornado, accompanied by an extraordinary rain. Three and a half Inches of wuter foil in less than t\vo hours. Nearly every cellar In tins city was flooded and floors of many houses weri3 covered with water, as tho rain poured down faster than it could be drained off.
The wind blew a hurricane, but did no particular damage In tho city beyond breaking down shade trocs and shrubs, in the country the. crops were leveled to the ground and along the creeks which overflowed their banks were washed out and ruined. The damage is estimated at 850,000.
At Chanute, Kan., the worst wind and rainstorm ever known struck tho town and lasted about forty minutes. Several buildings were badly damaged. About '2,000 acres of wheat near the Neosho river east of the city wore ruined, entailing a loss of about 820,000.
The storm could not have come at a worse time for the crops. Wheat was Just ready for the reaper, and at some places had already been cut and stackod. Much of the crop where the storm raged is a total loss and the rest has been badly damaged. Corn had just got a fair start and was in no condition to withstand a heavy storm. Much of It was washed away and much will have to be replanted. Comparatively meager reports have been received from the country districts where the storms occurred, and a full estimate of the damage to crops cannot be made. From the facts at hand, however, it is ustlmated that the total loss will not fall far short of a full half million of dollars.
