SCORES KILLED BY THE WIND
TERRIFIC STORM SWEEPS ACROSS
THE COUNTRY.
From- Texas to Pennsylvania Dead
and Injured Are Reported Heavy
Property Damage.
-
Kansas City, Mo. More than sixty
persons are reported killed and hun
dreds were injured, some mortally, by
a storm of tornado intensity which
raged over central, western, southern
and parts of eastern states. Property
damage will run into the millions.
Definite information has been re
ceived accounting for at least forty
persons dead, with reports from
points temporarily cut off from wire
communication by the storm adding
hourly to the list.
Reports from Alabama show the
loss of life was heaviest in that state,
the number of dead there being al
ready definitely, placed at -twenty-eight,
with additional fatalities re
ported but not confirmed. The town
of Lower Peachtree was swept away.
Two are dead in Indiana, two in
Tennessee, three In Ohio, two in New
York, one in Michigan ' and two n
Louisiana.
Accompanying the death lists are
estimates of injured totaling more
than a hundred, with additions com
ing in at brief Intervals.
Coming up out of the southwest
early In the morning, the storm swept
with startling suddenness diagonally
across the country from northern
Texas to Western Pennsylvania and
New York, bisecting the Mississippi
Valley and moving northeastward
across the Ohio into the Great Lakes
region.
Shifting winds of great violence, ac
companied in various sections by
snow, sleet and hall, characterized the
storm, easily the most destructive of
the year.
The property loss was great all
along the storm's track. Resides de
molishing or unroofing buildings and
felling trees, the high winds, rain,
hall and sleet did serious damage tn
early crops, according to reports.

Madeiista paper In' the City of Mexico,

stabbed to death or strangled and not
shot down In the manner Huerta de
clared. , . . i
Alcalde arrived on the steamer from
Acapulco where be went after the Ma
dero assassination.

dero was shot to death and Suanz
was strangled in the palace thevnight
of February 22, and that their bodies
were taken to the prison in a motor
car," he said.
"The so-called assault was merely a
ruse. If the motor car was fired on
It meant that the guards were only
pouring lead Into two dead bodies.
Madero and Suarez positively were
murdered hours before the prison In
cident, at the instance of General
Huerta and the other conspirators."

A KANSAS CITY VIADUCT FELL
BRIDGE OVER BELT LINE TRACKS
WEAKENED BY RAIN.
Structure Collapsed Just After Loaded
Street Car Had Crossed No
One Injured.
Kansas City. The ' old Brooklyn
avenue viaduct over the Belt Line
yielded slightly as a southbound
trolley car trundled across It at' 6:40
o'clock in the morning. v When the car
was stopped one hundred feet south of
the viaduct the south span of the
structure was falling toward, the steam
railway tracks, one hundred feet be
low. Steel and timber supports
crashed.
The whole viaduct settled lmmedl
ately afterward and by 8 o'clock the
long central steel span swayed until
It blocked the Belt Line traffic.
It was noticed about 2 o'clock the
day before that the' supports of the
viaduct wre weakening. C. A. Ringo,
a traffic superintendent tor the Metro
politan Street Railway, inspected it
and reported that a masonry abutment
was crumbling.
With that report on file the heavy
Saturday afternoon and night street
car traffic was allowed to pass over
the viaduct Late in the afternoon
John V. Hanna, chief .engineer, and
Frank Tibbetts, bridge engineer of the
terminal company,. Inspected the via
duct.
"There was no cause for alarm
then," said Mr. Hanna. "The viaduct
was safe enough to stand any traffic.
We ordered a close watch maintained
to prevent any accident. Water seep.
ing down behind the south abutment
caused the collapse drainage water
from the recent rains running down
the street car tracks possibly. That
forced the abutment to bulge."
Terminal company wrecking crews
made six ineffectual attempts to pull
down the sagging spans and clear the
steam railway tracks so trains could
pass. A locomotive, a hoisting crane
and a legerwood engine were used
The cable snapped bIx times. It was
4 o'clock In the afternoon vrhen the
span was torn loose. In the process
a water main, was broken and before
It could be stopped the Belt Line was
covered with water a foot deep.
