Babe Carried Mile and Unhurt—Bod­ ies Miles From Home. Kansas City. — Twenty-six persons are known to have been killed and many injured by a storm that passed over Central West Missouri late Mon­ day, demolishing buildings, tearing down wires and leaving the smaller towns and country homes completely wrecked. Reports indicate that the storm, after doing many thousands of dollars’ worth of damage here, passed to the Southwest, wrecking all build- ings in its path. In Bates county, Missouri, the Northwestern section was swept for five miles and nearly every building in a track half a mile wide was demolished. Here 13 deaths have been reported. From Sedalia, Mo., two deaths are reported, while rumors, unverified as yet, make the total much larger. The storm struck Bates county half a mile from Merwin. There, when the home of Henry Cameron was destroyed and his three children killed, the wind picked up his baby, and it was found uninjured a mile from home. The bodies of Gibson Groves and Fred Groves were found a mile from their home. They were in the building when the storm struck. Telephone wires throughout Bates county are down and the reports have been brought in by messengers. In the country surrounding Sedalia the wires are down, but aid is being rushed to the outlying towns by War- rensburg, Sedalia and Windsor. Nothing has been heard from the district lying between Windsor, Mo., and Butler.
