St. Louis, April 29. — A special to
tho Globo-Deuiooiat from Kirksville,
Mo., gays:
A gathering storm th at had been
threatening all afternoon broke upon
Kirksville at 6:20 o’clock tonight in all
the fury of a cyclone. A path a quar
ter of a mile wide and as clean as the
prairie was swept through the eastern
portion of the city, and 400 buildings,
homes and mercantile houses were
leveled to the ground iu scattered
ruins.
In the heavy rain th a t followed the
people who had escaped turned out tc
rescue the injured. Fur two hours not
much was accomplished, as all was con
fusion, hut by 8 o’clock 40 dead
bodies lmd been taken from the mins.
It is expected th at the list of dead will
reach between 60 and 70, if not exceed
that. Nearly 1,000 people were mote
oi less injured.
Daylight will be necessary befoie an
adequate conception of the destmetion
of life ami property can be had. Each

Intense darkness prevailed aftei the
cyclone, and the rescuers were at a <1 is
advantage for a shoit time, until file
bioke out in a dozen (daces in Die

No attem pts were made to extinguish
the tire, and partly because of the
need of light. On both sides of the
storm ’s path the debris was pDed iiigi:
and burned fiercely, in all probabil
ity a number of bodies have been iu

The storm fiist struck the eastern
portion of the city, near that part oc
cupied by the boarding-houses of the
students of tiie Ameiican school of
oseopathy, the state normal school anc
McW ard’s seminary. It was just sup
per time for the students, and it is
thought very probablo the list of dead
w ill be well tilled with students, as a
large number of these hoarding-houses
were demolished.
As far as known tonight these three
institutions of learning escaped the
storm.
The storm went northwest and wiped
out P atterson’s uurseiy, pulling trees
out of tho ground and hurling tnem
through the city.
A second edition of the cyclone fol

Manila, April 29.—General Mao-
A r t h u r ’s division crossed the Rio
Grande today, and advanced on A palit,
completely routing the flower of the
rebel army.
The enemy were very strongly en
trenched on the river bank near both
sides of the railroad bridge. G eneral
Wheaton sent Colonel Punston across
with two companies of the Twentieth
Kansas regiment, a couple of privates
Bwimming the swift stream w itiia rope
under a galling tire for the purpose of
guiding the raft.
The men crossed in squads of 20, and
attacked the left flank of the rebels,
who scuttled like rabbits into coveted
ways and trenches. The rest of the
regiment was compelled to cross the
bridge in single file along the stringers.
All of the wooil work and much of the
iron work had been removed.
The
First Montana followed the Kansas
actosa the bridge.
The First Nebraska regiment, acting
ns a reserve, attacked the rebels in
three lines of trenches, diiving them
out, killing 16 nml wounding many.
In the meantim e a large body of F ili
pinos, estimated at no fewer than
3,000, led by General Antonio Luna on
a black charger, th at was evidently
coming to reinforce tho rebels who were
engaged w ith the Nebraskans, appeared
in the open field about two miles to
the left.
Emerging from the jungle, the en
emy formed an open skirmish lino
nearly two miles in length, with very
thick reserves behind. They advanced
at double-quick until they were about
2,000 yards fiom tho American line,
when General Wheaton ordered his
ttoops to fire.
The rebels, who were evidently un
aware th a t the Americans had crossed
the river, broke aud ran in the direc
tion of Macabehe. The other Filipinos
fled toward Apalit station.
The heat in the early part of the af
ternoon was terrific, but a drenching
thundeistorm , which name later, great
ly refreshed the Americans.
Most of the rebels fled to Apalit
station, where trains were awaiting
them. They left hurriedly, presuma
bly for San Fernando.
The towns of San Vincente and
A palit were simultaneously burned and
evacuated by the natives.
Twenty piisoners were captured, in
cluding a Spaniard.
The American troops also captured
a brass cannon and a quantity of arms
am! ammunition, and the same evening
they captured a Maxim gun on the rail*
road.
The fighting lasted from noor until
4 o’clock. The Ameiican loss is one
man of the Montana regiment killed
uml three officers and six mon wounded.
