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."

They Are Beaten.
MAY DECLARE STRIKE OFF
Manufacturers of State Back Em

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

breakers have been dropped and their

authorities have decided. to vaccinate all
the negro teamsters brought from the

there are 100 patients In the smallpox
hospital.
There was practically no Interference

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

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."
