THOUSANDS SCATTERED BYSTORM Wind Sends Downtown Crowds Scampering for Shelter. The storm whipped into tlio downtown district as the hosts of early theatergoers and late workers milled through the business streets. As the first yellowish tinge appeared to the west followed by an ominous, funnel-shaped cloud rolling down upon the city, thousands scampered to shelter. Then, with a roar, the wind played havoc with business property, buckling huge plate glass showwindows, ripping signs and standards from their posts, smashing ornamental street lights and in some instances uprooting the poles, breaking small windows, and then sweeping off toward the east, leaving the streets littered with glass, automobiles wreckage and debris. Snowshovels Used K. "Washington St. for practically three miles was strewn with wreckage. In the downtown district, snowshovels were pressed into service to clear the sidewalks of shattered glass. Illinois St. front Washington to Market Sts. was strewn with glass and pieces of building cornices. An electric sign on the south side of the Apollo theater was blown thirty feet north in front of the Durand Hat Shop. Windows were blown In at Levinson’s Hat Shop, Illinois and Market Sts. Rink’s, McAnn Shoe Shop and Rauh’s on Illinois St., between Washington and Market. A cornice was blown to the sidewalk off the building occupied by McAnn's shoe store and Durand’s millinery, and the sidewalk was roped off. Dresses Ruined The entire glass front was blown out of the New York Waist store, 34 E. Washington St., and a large stock of dresses ruined by water. Similar damage, but to a less degree was done to Morrison’s, 26 W. Washington St., Wasson’s, Charles Dresses and Furs, Ayres, Hooks Drugs, Washington and Meridian Sts., Hart & Company, 16 E. Washington St., Howard Furniture Company, 18 E. Washington St., Liggett’s Drug store, Pennsylvania &

completely ended their health troubles that they can give up taking medicine for time to come. One of the latest indorsements of this kind was given to the Konjola Man, who is at the Hook drug store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., this - city, by Mr. Roy Hodges, 412 South Ritter St., Indianapolis. “I have been free of stomach trouble over S months,” said Mr. ~~ Hodges, ‘‘and I have never lost a day at work since I got this medicine. “My trouble first started with indigestion over two years ago. Finally I was suffering badly, and everything I ate disagreed with me. My stomach would bloat up and swell with gas until it was hard for me to breathe. My heart seemed to jump and flutter, and very often I was subject to nausea speflls. Besides the stomach trouble I was frequently disturbed at night, due to weak kidneys, and my back was always' sore and achy. ‘‘l decided to try K|njola, because several people told me about this medicine. Four bottles completely ended every form of misery that I had, and in the five weeks I gained about twelve pounds. That has been over eight months ago, and I wish to state that no one would ever know I had a sick day in my' life. I had to lay off from work very often, but as I said before, I had been on the job every day since I got Konjola. I relish my meals and never have a touch of indigestion afterward. The bloating is ended, and the shortness of breath has stopped. My kidneys are stronger and I never have to get up at nights. The pains are gone from back, and all the other miseries I had* are ended. "This Konjola Is the first medicine that ever made me a well man, and of course I ■ shall never forget it.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Pennsylvania* and Market Sts., Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the local public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola Is also for sale by every Hook Drug Store in' this city, and by all druggists in outside towns. — Advertisement.

This is a scene in the 300 block N. Keystone Ave.. one of the streets hardest hit by the tornado, Wednesday night. Two damaged autos in the path of the gale are shown.

Woman Uninjured Despite Leap Mrs. Roy Varina, 2817 E. New York St., narrowly escaped serious injury and perhaps death in the tornado, when, dazed, she leaped from a second story window of her home sidewalk belofr. Mrs. Varina .was closing her upstairs windows when the storm struck. She started downstairs when the house began trembling. Sho fell on the stairs, picked herself upjt the foot, went back upstainr and leaped from the window. She was uninjured, but suffered a nervous shock. The house was considerably damaged when several large pieces of lumber were driven through the walls.

Washington Sts., Gordon Furniture Company, 127-129 E. Washington St., Indiana Trust Company building, Pembroke Arcade, including Dailey's restaurant inside the arcade and the Piggly Wiggly, 137-139 E. Washington St., Daniels Ready to Wear, Norman Furniture Company, Goldstein Bros. Department Store.. Goldsmith Drugs, Washington and Alabama Sts., and further damage east on Washington St. Driverless Car A driverless automobile propelled by the wind at 30 miles an hour north of Washington St. cn Meridian St., was reported by Arthur Gillian, Armory employee. A near panic was averted in the Apollo theater when Earl Gordon, organist, Played loud to drown the roar of the storm raging in front of* the theater. Similar situations prevailed in other downtown theaters. Clogged sewers in thet -downtown district, espeCiaiy at Meridian and Washington Sts., where water stood above the curbs, ruined shoes and stockings of throngs attracted downtown by reports of the storm. A bit of comedy was injected in the dismal downtown scene by a floating city waste box top bearing an appropriate advertisement for a coming thetrical production, “Carnival of Venice.” A tin sign of George Hitz, commission merchant, Virginia Ave. and Delaware St. was blown a full blocK and lighted on the Washington St. trolley wire. Street car traffic was tied up for more than an hour on Washington St., when an eastbound Washington street car was derailed at Pennsylvania St. Large forces of workmen were pressed into service cleaning glass from the sidewalk after the storm had passed. Auto wreckers were* kept busyifor several hours removing cars in the downtown district which had been rendered useless by the wind and rain. Streets were transformed Into minature rivers by the torrential rains which accompanied the wind blast, adding to the discomfort of persons cabght downtown when the storm whipped into the city.

The interconnection system was planned to minimize service interruptions through such storm damage, he said. Trains on Time Union Station trains are reported on time. The Big Four from Elkhaii was the only one reported one hour behind schedule. Telegraph lines, most of which "shot” after the storm, were vapidly being rehabilitated. Communication with Chicago was re-established early, but wires were still out between this city, St. Route and Columbus, Ohio, on the Western Union and between here and points east on the Postal. It was expectedjto have them repaired in a few hours. J. Walter Hannon, city plant superintendent of the Indiana Bell Telephone Company, estimated damage to telephone company-property at SIOO,OOO. Although hundreds of poles were down on the east side and thousands of yards of cables dragged into the streets, it was remarkable that only 2,000 phones were out of order. All toll lines were in order and workers were brought In from other Indiana district offices to aid in rehabilitation work here. Gas company officials reported pipes torn lose and about fifty meters broken In basements of wrecked houses. Crews were busy throughout the night plugging the leaks to prevent danger of explosion. Work had been completed early today and damage was slight so far as com- | pany properly is concerned, it is understood.

A general air of wonderment as, to what actually happend prevailed today among persons injured in the storm. So quickly did the wind strike that practicaly all agreed there was no preliminary warning of the great speed of the air. “I don’t know yet what happened,” said R. .T. Lindley, 329 N. Oakland Ave., riding in an automobile with j Hollie Kratzer and Marie Cagley, | Kokomo when the storm struck. “We were riding south on Rural i St., at a nominal rate of speed,” he \ HOUSE CUT IN TWO AS ROOF GOES Resident Flees to Cellar as Home Is Smashed Up. “My only thought was. ‘Oh.

There was a hole in the bedroom. The chimney had been | shoved down and a terrible noise was coming through the hole. We ran back downstairs. Finally we got up courage enough to venture upstairs again. We went into the llv- ! Ing room. “Somebody else’s roof had intruded. Tn fact two roofs. They had chopped off the whole front end of our living room.”

BATH SCHOOL’S JOY DAY SMOTHERED IN TRAGEDY

Bu United Premi BATH, Mich., May 19.—This was the day of the school picnic For days, Bath mothers had been cooking and baking for the great children’s day of the year. Big frosted cakes, mounds of homebaked bread, baskets of sandwiches and tubes of pic'kles were being made ready. Dresses of the little girls were starched and ironed. Sunday suits were waiting for the l ys. "Dates” were made among the older members. It was a community affair at which everyone was going to turn out. Examinations at the school were scheduled to end yesterday and the atmosphere there was full of the suppressed excitement that precedes such a holiday. Town Stunned Today dawned and the village of Bath was preparing, not for the joyful picnic, but the mass burial of its dead. The pitiful little bodies which had been taken from the dynamited school lay in sorrowing homes. Mothers sat in their homes, disconsolate. Fathers gathered at the ruins of the school, where State troopers were still supervising the work of the searhhers. Other dis-

BIG BLOW WAS TORNADO, WEATHER MAN DECLARES

The 76-mile gale which wrecked two districts of the city and played havoc in the downtown district Wednesday night, was classified today by United States Meteorologist J. H. Armington as a tornado. “I have had very little time to make a complete study of the storm T>ut from what I have already seen I would say that It had all the earmarks of a tornado,” Meteorologist Armington said. Continued bad weather was promised Indianapolis and vicinity for tonight and Friday. The official forecast read: "Cloudy tonight and Friday: possibly thunder showers.” I The temperature was falling this morning, indicating that a cool spell

, said, “when we pulk% into the intersection at New York St. “Suddenly the car was lifted into the air, and swept east on New York St. It brushed against the curb, grazed a telephone pole and finally ended up by rolling over and over and coming, to a stop upside down.” i Kratzer and Miss Cagley were I painfully injured. Lindley escaped ] with cuts and bruises about the head. Cling to Door ; Mrs. Dorothy Kremm, Canton, 0., I narrowly escaped death when the ! wind swept away n porch on which ; she was standing at 241 Hendricks . i’l. She had been visiting Martin i Kremm, her father-in-law at that ■ address. “I had started downtown,” she ! said, “hut missed the bus on the c*r- ! tier. I saw the rain coming and 1 dashed hack home. As 1 started to | open the door, the porch was literally swept out from under me. j “I clung to the door and the wind ! jerked it off the hinges, sending it 1 into the hou: e with me holding on. Finally I came to rest up alongside the piano.” Then site pointed to two discolored j eyes and lacenations on her head as I evidences of the colliSioTr: Prank of Fate j By some strange prank of fate, • Mrs. Marie Dihlerstadt, who lives in | ti e other half of the double house in I which Mrs. Kremm was staying, i opened the back door and started tj into the Kremjn home for a visit just tis the front ddor was blown from its Hfinges. As she walked into the fore part of the house she was struck by the | door traveling through the front , room and sustained a possible [me- ! tured skull. f ■ Mrs. Lura Stewart. 70, was pinned ! beneath wreckage and doctors at the hospital said that she had probably sustained a punctured lung. X-Ray pictures were to be taken today. Mrs. Andrew Sheets 2030 E. Washj ington street, was at a loss as to what actually happened to h%r 12year old daughter, Frances. “We were at home,” she said, "and suddenly there was nothing around us. It seemed like the wind just i eamo along and took everything away from us and deliberately left us there.” Both Mrs. Sheets and her daughter ! were bruised and lacerated by flying debris.

traded parents waited at the hospitals in Lansing where the injured had been taken, suffering with their suffering children. It was the tragic aftermath of a ; community taxation dispute, similar to disputes which have occurred in school communities the country over, tut never before with such a frightful outcome. The financial burden which the taxpayers carried today was hardly noted in the general grief, hut it was that burden which sent Andrew Mehoc mad and caused !>te twisted mind to conceive the punishment he visited upon his neighbors. Scenes of Sorrow The sound of the terric explosion was heard for miles. Mothers and fathers came on the run from every home in the village and its nearby farms. For hours, others were coming from-outlying sections as the news spread. “Womfen frantically pawed over the timber and broken bricks held together by mortar, heavier than the average man could think of handling without a crowbar,” one observer said. One by one. the small bodies were carried out and laid ‘n rows under blankets. Parents psssed down the line, looking for their own.

w.-':S following in the wake of the storm. Although very little wind was reported outside of Indianapolis, heavy rains were recorded throughout central and north central Indiana. Reporting were: Among the towns: Anderson, 3.90 inches: Kokomo, 2.73 inches; Logansport, 2.26 inches: Lafayette, 2.60 inches; Farmland, 2.10 inches: Bloomington, 2.34 inches; Ft. Wayne, 1.34 Inches; Marion, 1.62 ~lnche; Terre Haute, 1.54 inch; Columbus, 1.45 inch; Madison. 1,32 inch; Bluffton, 1.30 inch; Paoli, 1.63 inch: Wabash, 1.52 inch. The precipitation lp Indianapolis, according to Armington, was .51 inch. _

WIND BLOWN BITS IN STORM WAKE (Continued From Page 11 street and a vacant lot west of Liberty Hall, 320S E. Michigan St., were strewn with broken timbers and limbs of trees. A number of windows were broken in Liberty Hall, while the roof of a garage and service station next to it on the east crashed In. The number of cars buried could not bo ascertained, but it was known that at least one truck was in the room at the time. The owner of this told a reporter he had to start to Toledo with it this morning and was wondering how he might get it out of the debris. Most of the east part of the city was plunged in darkness, residences, streets, boulevards and part of the time parks were without lights. Peoples Motor Coach busses were operating over E. New York St., jammed with passengers leaving the downtown district, many of them curious to see tho damage done by the storm. Though the residence of Dr. Paul Shinholt, 460 Kealing Ave.. still bore a "garage for rent” sign, the garage today was in the middle of the street whore wind tossed it. The home of Ownie Bush, manager of the Pittsburgh National baseball team, at 207 N. Wolcott St., was badly damaged. Mis mother, Mrs. Ellen Bush, was uninjured. John Gasper, 210 Hendricks Pi., went upstairs to get a candle when the lights went out. As he reached the top of the stairs, the roof vanished. Gasper raced down and reached the street as the house collapsed. 'S’ W. E. Beatty, 32 N. Keystone Ave., who returned home when he saw the storm approaching, held onto his daughter, Mabel Ellen, 10, to keep the high winds from blowing her out of the house. Beatty sensed the approaching cyclone at his dry goods store 2218 E. Washington St., and took his daughtdl* home. They no sooner had arrived when the wind blew glass from windows and bricks and timbers through tho house. About half of the house collapsed. * “There was such a terrific noise that Mabel could not hear me call her for an instant. Finally a flash of lightning enabled me to see her. I called and ran to .her. “Just as T grabbed her clothing Ia terrific wind nearly blew us into the street. With timbers and bricks flying on all sides I held my daughter between my legs and made up my mind that whatever came it would strike me first,” said Beatty. Parts of the wooden fence enclosing the Indiana Woman's Prison were blown down and Michigan St. was cluttered with broken trees near the Arsenal echpieal grounds. Without police supervision motorists were for the most part complying with traffic directions by citizens. A Times reporter encountered difficulty in trying to enter N. Jefferson St. south of New York, where residents directing traffic were determined no one should go. The porch of a house at this corner was partly blown away and other debris cluttered the street. A coupe near Michigan and Dearborn Sts. was carried by the wind over the curb and lodged against a treet in the public lawn between the street and walk. The force of the wind carried a a car before it, when the driver, an Indiana Bell Telephone Company lineman, put his machine in reverse and tried to back Into the current. Many houses along Michigan St. east of Gray St. had broken windows and fences and trees were damaged badly. The same was true of other streets In this vicinity crossing Michigan St.

Nearer E. Tenth St. and north toward Brookside Park property apparently was damaged little. Trees being scattered in yards and Btreets., At the home of Chester* Johnson, 1346 N. Parker Ave., a treo from a neighboring yard was carried across Johnson’s property, striking the side of his house and knocking down a fence. At a number of places in the east side water was standing in streets where sewers had become clogged with branches. The garge in rear of 44 Parkview Ave., occupied by Joseph H. Schaub, was blown into pieces. The building was lifted off its foundation, but left the machine undamaged. Parts of the garage were blown over the neigHborliood. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Daly, 2106 E. Washington St., escaped possible death by being downtown at the time. The house was torn to pieces. , Mrs. Dora Cantlon, living E. Washington St. was alone in her bedroom: "Yes, I was badly scared,” she said. “Although the roof of my home is torn off, I am happy that my children and I were spared.” A wooden beam from the lodge hall struck the two story house of Mr. and Mrs., R. A. Lee, living In the third house east. ■ " ■— / Patrolman Ned Hoagland was pne of the first officers on the scone and searched wrecked building fhr injured persons. The area hardest hit was about eight squares east and west and three squares north and south. The area was bounded by Walcott and Beville Ave. and New York and Washington Sts., Hoagland said. An ice cream truck owner abandoned his wagon in Jefferson Ave., north of Washington St., when the wind turned the vehicle across the street. The rear of a warehouse on northwest corner Jefferson Ave. and Washington St., was blown into the

street. Timbers were hurled several hundred feet. D. D. Dolan of St. Louis, who is driving to Detroit arrived in Indianapolis shortly after the storm. He said he passed through a “cloudhurst” at Effingham, 111., and found flooded road's along the route, but little property dumuge. There was little wind, he said. B. F. Overtree, 214 N. Jefferson Ave., returned home with members of his family after the storm and solicited the assistance of neighbors in finding his home. He found the roof of his home on the bed and the residence demolished. Typical of the freaks performed by the storm was tho fate of a Ford sedan at Oxford and Vermont Sts. The wind picked the car up and deposited its rear across the sidewalk. Then the wind slapped several boards against the side of the car wrapped them securely with a mass of telephone wires, wound round and round the auto. For trimmings the gale deposited a bread box on a fender and then gracefully drappetf a free across the whole. A huge stone face woman used to decorate the top of the building at 25 N. Illinois St. The woman looked down at the street. The storm tore loose tho half ton,stone and the lady crashed on her nose on the sidewalk. The pluttering debris dented a Ford parked at the curb. Miss Mable Pressley, IC. daughter of Richard Pressley, police emergency driver, was on the front porch of 408 N. Dearborn St., with a party of young folks. The freqkish wind picked up a phonograph inside the house, carried it through a window and struck Miss Tressley. Her shoulder was-injured. Thousands of motorists rushed for the wrecked area Lil the east end. Dozens of volunteer traffic directors sprang into action and kept a sentblanue of order. E. Washington St. for at least twenty blocks was impassable because of wreckage and spi'ting live wires. Police got their first warning that a tornado had truck when the big tree in front of tho county jail was uprooted and hurled across Alabama St., toward police headquarters. The wax figures in some Washington St. department stores presented sorry pictures after the storm had done its worst. Hundreds of dollars worth of silken finery was damaged. One grand waxen dame was flat on her face. Two others were hurled together as if they had died in ehibrace. Two thirds of the police department was on duty in the wrecked area within two hours after the storm struck. The entire traffic department was thrown into the section as soon as police realized conditions. From Keystone Ave.. east in Thirty-eighth St., to Pendleton Pike, trees were strewn across the roadway. Efforts of persons living in the vicinity to get to their homes were delayed until ‘he debris was cleared from streets. Persons horded In the Log Cabin barbecue, Thirty-eighth St., and Keystone Ave., and prepared to run to safety in the cellar in a nearby grocery store when the barbecue place seemed about to leave the ground.

Bus transportation in the north j part of the city was paralyzed when I many of the motors were drowned I out. One driver said the wind was j strong enough to push his seven-ton | bus more than a block, after the en- j gine ceased functioning. Garland Landis, 1810 E. Washington St., clerk at Neidhamer drug ; store, 2102 E. Washington St., and Ray Kunz, pharmacist, treated approximately thirty-five people suffering from minor injuries. The majority were cuts inflicted by glass. Ernest Ley, 22, of 232 S. Rural St., was seated in an auto at Hamilton j Ave. and E. Washington St., when j the Odd Fellows building there col- ] lapsed. James F. Cunningham, 24, of 48 N. Dearborn St., was in- the Panhandle Smoke House, poolroom in the basement. There were about fifteen men in tho poolroorfi when the cyclone struck. None was injured. A fifty-foot chimney blown down at the Holt Ice Company plant, North St. and the Canal, dragged down electric wires and blocked the street. Miss Lula Johnson, 21,.0f 234 N. Tacoma Ave., received cuts on an arm and Emmett Sharp, 62, at the same address, had his shoulder and collar hone broken when the house was blown down. Dr. E. M. Hurst, Zlonsville, was passing. He rushed into the house and carried the injured to his car and tried to persuade the mother of Miss Johnson to go to the Methodist hospital with them. The mother, slightly injured, refused to go because her husband and other children were at a movie show and slio feared they would be terrified when they returned and found them gone. So the mother was carried to a neighbor’s home and her wounds attended to. The Indianapolis Street Railway Company threw what busses it had available into service when blockaded tracks stopped service upon the E. Washington, W. "Washington, E. Michigan and E. Tenth St. lines. The busses were operated along the regular routes to blockaded points and around the blockaded by clear streets. Officials hoped to have all lines' cleared this morning. The company suffered comparatively little damage to powen lines, excepting on E. Washington St. A taxi driver dozed In his car outside the Terminal station when the tornado struck downtown. He heard the roaring and crashing from Washington St., looked up Market 'St. toward the Statehouse and saw several dark objects tearing through the air thwarri him. With a wild yell he broke from his car and sought safety in the Terminal Bldg. The dark objects were laundry boxes from in front of the Fame hack of the Capitol thearter, a block and a half awajt around the corner. The wind gracefully turned t>ie corner with them and then wheq it got them opposite

the terminal train shed it turned then and dumped them inside. The storm first struck near the city at the suburb of Ben Davis, six miles west. Striking the town in spot 6, the high wind uprooted trees, billboards and high fences. First damage was at High School Rd. and Morris St. The wind raised for a half mile, but dropped again at tho intersection of Morris and Washington Sts., which is known as Mickleyville. A frame building occupied by the Standard garage was leveled. The timbers were strewn along the road for sevoral hundred yards east. Afterwards the wind apparently raised and did not lower again until it reached the Indianapolis baseball park, 1000 W. Washington St., where it twisted signboards and fences to splinters. The gale prevented a clean shave for James H. Flynn, 206 N. Hamilton Ave., who was alone, in the bathinoni shaving. He was blown into the street as a wall gave way. Cecil Flynn and James Flynn, i sons, were returning home from oppolste directions and got within 100 feet of tho house. From their autos they watched the storm wreck their home. They were uninjured, and the only damage their machine suffered was one flat tire each. They, with another brother. John, surveyed the neighborhood and aided other victims. Julia, a daughter, was returning home on a Michigan St. car which was blown off the track and struck a pole. She was not hurt. City Fireman Marion T. Harrison, 53 N. Keystone Ave., was,awakened by the storm as gently and as dangerously as though it had been the Argonm* offensive. A flying beam hurtled through the side of his bedroom wall, shot across the bed with
