RETREAT IÜ THE PAID Of fl STÜRM General Kirksville, Mo., Visited by a Terrible Cyclone. A HUNDRED One Thousand PERSONS KILLED More or Lew Injured — II mi d red a of Homes »nd Stores Lev eled to the Ground. St. Louis, April 29. —A special tc the Globe-Demociat from Kirksville, Mo., save: A gathering storm that had beer threatening all afternoon broke upon Kirksville at 6:20 o'clock tonight in al: 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 in scattered ruins. In the heavy rain that followed the people who had escaped turned out to rescue the injured. For two hours not much was accomplished, as all was con- fusion, but by 8 o’clock 49 dead bodies had been taken from the ruins. It is expected that the list of dead will reach between 60 and 70, if not exceed that. Nearly 1,000 people were more or less injured. Daylight will be necessary before an adequate conception of the destruction of life and property can be had. Each blanched face reports a new calamity. ! I 1 | j j ' j j I The Debris Burning'. Intense darkness prevailed after the j cyclone, and the rescuers were at a dis advantage for a short time, until tire j broke out in a dozen places in the ruins and shed light over the sc'ene. No attempts were made to extinguish the fire, and partly because of the need of light. On both sides of the storm’s path the debris was pi'ed high and burned fiercely. In all probabil ity a number of bodies have been in cinerated. The storm first struck the eastern portion of the city, near that part oc- | cupied by the boarding-houses of the students of the American school of oseopathy, the state normal school and McWard’s seminary. It was just sup per time for the students, and it is thought very probable the list of dead will be well filled with students, as a large number of these boarding-houses were demolished. As far as known tonight these three institutions of learning escaped the storm. The storm went northwest and wiped cut Patterson's nursery, pulling trees cut of the ground ami hurling tuem through the city. A second edition of the cyclone fol lowed the first 20 minutes later. It came as an inky black cloud, widely distributed, and covered the whole town, but passed above the houses, do ing no material damage and gathering | fury as it went. It undoubtedly i struck the ground a few miles out ol [ Kirksville. BY RAIL. Mae Arthur A gain Filipino Army. Rout« Manila, April 29.—General Mao- Arthur’s division er<-s<<d the Rio Grande today, and advanced on Apalit, completely routing the flutter of the rebel army. The enemy were very strongly en trenched on the river bank near both sides of the railroad bridge. General Wheaton sent Colonel Funston across with two companies of the Twentieth Kansas regiment, a couple of privates swimming the swift stream with a 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 wood work and nnrii of the iron work liad been remove 1. The First Montana followed the Kansas across the bridge. The First Nebraska regiment, acting as a reserve, attacked the rebels in three lines of trenches, driving them out, killing 16 and wounding many. In the meantime a large body of Fili pinos, estimated at no fewer than 3,000, led by General Antonio Luna on a black charger, that was evidently coming to reinforce the rebels who were engaged with the Nebraskans, appeared in the open field about two miles to the left. Emerging from the jungle, the en emy formed an open skirmish line nearly two miles in length, with very thick reserves behind. They advanced at double-quick until they were about 2,000 yards fiom the American line, when General Wheaton ordered his troops to fire. The rebels, who were evidently un aware that the Americans had crossed the river, broke and ran in the direc tion of Macabebe. The other Filipinos fled toward Apalit station. The heat in the early part of the af ternoon was terrific, but a drenching thunderstorm, w hich came 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 Apalit were simultaneously burned and evacuated by the natives. Twenty prisoners were captured, in cluding a Spaniard. The American troops also captured a brass cannon and a quantity of arms and ammunition, and the same evening they captured a Maxim gun on the rail road. The fighting lasted from noon until 4 o’clock. The American loss is one man of the Montana regiment killed and three officers and six men wounded. THE WAR IN THE REBELS SHE FOR PEACE the SAMOA. Engineer Corp« Return«.
