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.
