THE MORNING PKEGONIAN. SATURDAY, MAY 13, 1905. BURY THEIR DEAD Snyder People 'Devote Whole Day to Funerals. RAIN AGGRAVATES MISERY Heavens Pour Water Through Leaky Hoofs on Injured People Two More Injured Found Cry for Building Material. SNYDER, Okla., May 12. Nearly 100 corpses -were burled here last night and today, removing: the most gruesome evidence of the tornado which nearly destroyed the town Wednesday night. 2sone of the injured died during the night. Some of them have been kpt Bllve only by the skillful efforts of physicians and nurses working In the emergency hospital. Ab soon as daylight came people wcro ft work getting ready to perform the Ust rites for the dead. Three carloads of coffins arrived during the night from Oklahoma City, together with a dozen undertakers from the convention of un dertakers In session there. "Workmen also came in on a special train fur nished by the 'Frisco Railroad, and the work of burial was carried on with utmost dispatch. Itain Pours In on Injured. During the morning a heavy rain came up and rendered operations dif ficult. The floor of the morgue was covered. with water. Most or'tfce build ings that remain standing admitted etreams of water through the roofs, end the temporary hospital where the Injured remained leaked liko a sieve, wetting a number of the patients. The rain, which was accompanied by some wind and hail, served to frighten the residents, but those who were able kept bravely at work throughout the water and mud, caring for their suf fering Injured and burying their dead. Several of the newly-made graves were Ailed with water. Two More Injured Found. Tjvo more Injured were discovered under some debris early in tho morn ing, but neither was identified. They were pinioned under a house-beam. One, a man, was delirious, and the other, a boy, was unconscious. Owing to the failure to keep any records at the outset, there has been great difficulty in securing an accurate list of the dead. The Associated Press representative secured the first list ap proaching completeness on Thursday afternoon, and but few alterations have been made. The two or three bodies that have been found since have not been Identified. Responses of a generous nature have been made by many cities and towns In the territory; several thousand dol lars' wortb of food and clothing have been sent in and placed in charge of the local committee for distribution. Relief work has also been furnished sufficiently to meet every requirement. Vandals Rob the Dead. During the day complaints were made to he City Marshal that bodies of the dead had been robbed by van dals, and he issued an order that badges must be worn by every person in town. The order was accompanied by a warn ing that those who refused to wear tho badges must go to jail or leave on the first train. The Engineering Corps, a division of the Oklahoma National Guard, arrived from Xawton during the afternoon and went Into camp. It Js presumed that the mission of the company is to as sist in preserving order and protecting property. One of the most remarkable shases of the disaster Is the great percentage of killed. There were remarkably few minor injuries in proportion to the dead, and the killed exceed 10 per cent of the total population of the town. The number of dead, as nearly as can be ascertained, is 95. Tonight there are few unburied bodies left .and Interment will be com pleted In the morning. Building Material Needed. The citizens will then turn their at tention to the erection of suitable hab itations for the ll'Ing, many of whom are now compelled to live practically with no shelter, while buildings that are habitable are filled to overflowing. A second appeal has been sent out by the local committee, stating that food and clothing have been received in abundance, but the necessity of ma terials to build homes for the homeless Is pressing. It Is thought that about 10 or 12 of the most seriously injured will die. VISITOR DESCRIBES SCENE. Many Injured Will Die All Hap pened in Five Minutes. OKLAHOMA CITY, May 12. Mayor J. F. Messenbaugh, of this city, returned from the storm-stricken town of Snyder today, and, when asked about the condi tions prevailing there, said: "The dead will number fully 100. and I think that It will run bej-ond this num bcr. as many entire families are missing and cannot be accounted for. either among the dead or injured. Besides, the reports from the surrounding country are very meager, and will undoubtedly add later many more to the awful list of vie Urns. I should judge that the injured will number 200. about 20 per cent of whom will die, as there are many whose Injuries are pronounced fatal by the attending physl clans. "Every building in the town is damaged. and three-fourths of them are good only for kindling wood and cannot be repaired at all. Everything north of the track Is completely destroyed, even the grass being killed. The ground looked as if It had been run over by a big harrow. Track of Storm Traced. "The track of the ptorm has been de termined for a distance of about 22 miles, but the dead and Injured In its track will not be known for some time, as every one In the vicinity of the - storm Is nerve racked by the awful sights that he has had to see. and Is in a bad condition to report accurately such a disaster. "Thirty boxcars belonging to the Frisco Railroad were smashed to pieces, and the roundhouse Is a pile of ruins, as are also the cotton gins. "There is plenty of help on hand to take care of the wounded and homeless and to perform the last sad rites of the dead. About SO graves were dug yesterday, and those who are to be burled at Snyder will soon be consigned to their last rest ing-place. while others will be shipped to other towns for burial. "The train which left here last evening got Into Snyder this morning at 3 o'clock and turned around and came back to this city, arriving here at noon today. Twelve dead and injured were taken to Lawton on that train, and five were brought to this city on the way to Norman. All Was Over in Five Minutes. "Those who passed through the Urrlble storm say that the full force of the storm did ,not last over five minutes, coming just after a heavy rainfall, and no premonition of the storm was given. "It is stated that many of the buildings In the town -were covered with cyclone Insurance, but how many and to what extent it is impossible to find out at this time. The scene in and around the town Is one that, once witnessed, would never bo forgotten the army of willing workers taking care of the injured and preparing the dead for burial, the utter destruction of dozens of buildings, the dead bodies of hundreds of horses, cattle, hogs and chickens, the scattered households from hundreds of homes, weeping children hunting for parents, the husband seeking his wife, others looking for friends and relatives all go to make a ecene that words cannot describe, and reminds us that' one with force mightier than ours holds us In the hollow of his hand. Fully 20 per cent of the injured will die; nearly all are injured in the head, and death resulted with 00 per ent of the victims from injuries about the head." RAINSTORM ADDS TO MISERY Damages Merchandise and Makes Roofless Houses Uninhabitable. SNYDER, Okla., May 12. A very heavy rainstorm visited this place today, which caused much distress among the homeless and those whose belongings have been partially wrecked. Considerable damage has already been done to a number of stocks of merchandise which were not materially Injured by the tornado, as the building had been unroofed or otherwise rendered incapable of affording protec tion from the rain. This will add to the total of property loss to the extent of thousands of dollars. Those whose houses were damaged, a number will suffer added loss, while most of tho few rooms which were available for sleeping .purposes last night will now be rendered unfit for occupation owing to dampness.

MAY DECLARE STRIKE OFF Manufacturers of State Back Em ployers Association White Non-' union 3Icn Supplant Ne groesSocialists Mix. CHICAGO; May 12. Three severe blows were dealt to the causa of the striking teamsters tonight and as a result the governing body of the organization, the Teamsters' Joint Council, will meet to morrow night to decide whether the strike shall bo called "off. The decision to call this meeting followed a two hours' .session between the officials of the Team sters Union and the Teamowners' Asso ciation. The members of the latter body have all through the present strike been fa vorable to the teamsters rather than to the. Employers' Association. Tonight, however, the teamowners Informed the teamsters that their cause was lost and that the best thing they could do wag to call off the strike and do it at once. The teamsters demurred, but the teamowners were obdurate and the meeting of the council was set for tomorrow night. The second blow also came from the Teamowners Association, when the res ignation of John C. Drlscoll, its secretary, was tendered and accepted. Mr. Drlscoll has been an official of the association since its inception several years ago. and during the present strike has been a po tent factor on the side of the teamsters. There was much dissatisfaction among the members with certain actions of Mr, Drlscoll in connection with the strike. The exact nature ot tho difficulty that led to his resignation Is not known. The third blow was administered at the meeting of the Illinois Manufacturers' As sociation, which Is made up of business men from all parts of the state. At secret meeting held tonight the members of the association decided that they would uphold the cause of the Employers' Apso elation, which has been conducting the light against the strikers, and that they would do all In their power to make the Employers Association a permanent In stltutlon. Many Men Laid Off. Employers today began the execution of a new policy as to the teamsters strike. men In various manufacturing industries being laid, off because of the lack of busi ness brought about by the strike. At the Employers Association It was said the number of the men laid off because of dullness In trade and consequent lack of demand for certain manufactured goods would run Into the thousands, and would continue unless normal business condi tions returned soon. Hundreds of wagons were sent out to day by strike-bound houses, advertise ments for teamsters filled the newspaper. and on every side was evidence of aggres siveness of the employers. The depart ment stores particularly caused large ad vertlsements to appear simultaneously In the newspapers announcing that men are wanted "to fill permanent positions" as teanisters and deliveries. Protection was promised to drivers, and the character of men the department stores desire to re cruit was indicated by the fact that ref erences are required from applicants. Most of the advertisements state that "union or nonunion men" will be accept ed. Kinsley's restaurant, famed as the scene of banquets, where Presidents and royalty have dined, has been turned Into a hotel, where nonunion colored and white teamsters are housed. More than the usual number of teams. about 10M It was said; made deliveries today, guarded by 2100 pollcem-n. and about the same number of Deputy Sher iffs. A large, number -of negro strike breakers have been dropped and their olaces taken by white men. The health authorities have decided. to vaccinate all the negro teamsters brought from the South, as a precautionary measure, as there are 100 patients In the smallpox hospital. There was practically no Interference with the nonunion drivers, and but little disorder today. Socialists Take a Hand. Socialists of National reputation. In eluding William Mallly. former Xa tlonal secretary of the Socialist party. and Seymour Stedman. prominent In the party arrived in Chicago. It Is-said they came here to argue with the union labor leaders on the power of the ballot. Up to this time the Socialists never have been cordially welcomed by the teamsters, who. relying on strikes, looked upon the ballot as something of no value In cor recting ineir grievances, nut. as a re sult of the crisis In the teamsters af fairs, the Socialists were received cor dlally today by President Shea, of the teamsters, and an amicable conference fol lowed the arrival of the visitors. Spread of sympathetic strikes among public school children received a new im petus today when pupils of the Carter H. Harrison School, at Twenty-third street and Wentworth avenue, went on strike when the wagons wjth nonunion drivers arrived at the building to deliver coal.

E CHARGES ALEXANDER AND TAR BELIj WITH PLOTTING RUIN. Whole Story or Equitable Told With Vigor in Suit for Removal of Alexander as Trustee. NEW YORK. May li-James W. Alex ander, president of the Equitable Life Assurance Society, was served todny with the summons and complaint in the suit brought against him by James H. Hyde. William H. Mclntyre. Annie F. Hyde and Mao B. Ripley. In which the plaintiffs desire the removal of Mr. Alexander from his position as trustee of the Hyde stock and demand an accounting. The complaint charges that Mr. Alex ander "has for many months past been secretly engaged In organizing and car rying on a conspiracy, .the purpose of which was to take the power of conduct ing the management of said society away from the stockholders without the consent of the holders and to confer this power ostensibly upon the policyholders, but In a form In which he expects to be able to control the management through proxies secured by agents of the society from policyholders." The defendant Is charged with Inaugur ating a "secret conspiracy by joining with himself one Gage Tarbell, second 'vice president of the society." and 1C is al leged that all "overt acts in the said con spiracy were committed with the aid and connivance of said Tarbell." After reviewing all the grounds cov ered by Mr. Hyde In his public letters" and all other features of the controversy, the complaint charges Alexander with a "wilful design to prostitute his trust so as to sezlc for himself the control of the property." Mr. Alexander Is further charged with circulating numerous scandalous stories about Mr. Hyde's management of the so ciety and his private conduct. Mr. Hyde denies all these stories and specifically names the charge that he had given a masked ball at Sherry's, charging the cost to the Equitable Life Assurance Society: that there were Improper and scandalous occurrences, such as dancing a "can can" on the dining tables, or that he was connected with the purchase, sale, promo tion and underwriting of securities of the United States Shipbuilding Company. Mr. Hyde says thnt Mr. Alexander has been an equal sharer with him in all profits and losses In the financial trans actions. The complaint declares that these false charges have had the effect of seriously impairing public confidence in Mr. Hyde and that the defendant "greatly damaged said trust estate, and has at no time ac counted for said damge or for his admin istration of said trust." The plaintiffs pray for judgment of the court, "removing the defendant from his office as trustee and requiring him to ac count for the Injury done to said trust estate by him."
