DEATH LIST GROWS.
Concluded from Page U
Nearly all South St. Louis la prac
tically destroyed. Wrecked buildings
and those partly damaged cannot be
repaired. It will be fully two years be
fore the effect of the hurricane are ef
faced. WORK OF RELIEF BEGUN.
East St Louis, 111., May 29. East
St. Louis is waking from its
stupor of terror, and things are be
ginning now to shape themselves to
the amelioration of the condition of
the afflicted and the preservation of
the property left after the work of
the hurricane.
A relief committee has been formed
with an auxiliary womans' corps.Money
Is being subscribed, the town Is thor
oughly policed with local constabulary
and two companies of militia, streets
are being cleared, homes made habit
able and a feeble effort at being cheer
ful to the distress Is being made for
the townspeople.
The bright sunshine has served to
lighten somewhat the load of sorrow,
but now In their sober moments the
completeness of the disaster appears
the more appalling.
The only body discovered this morn
ing was that of George Lucky, a 4-year-old
boy.
Last night the Island, where the de
struction of property was so frightful,
was guarded by both the police and
militia. The scene on the Island was
a ghastly one during the night. The
people wandered through It until most
daylight In a meaningless sort of way,
many of them because they had no
other place to go and others drawn
there by curiosity.
Nothing had been done to clear away
the wreckage which still lay piled as
the elements had thrown It In Indis
criminate masses. Dead horses abound
ed, and already sickening odors rise
into the night air.
With the appearance of the sun this
feature became more obnoxious and
the stench was frightful, but so busy
and exhausted are the citizens that it
Is Impossible to tell when the carcasses
will be removed.
DEATH FROM INJURIES.
John Plank and Miss Clara Herman
died today from the effects of Injuries
sustained In the cyclone. The young
lady, her father and mother wore
burled beneath the house they occu
pied. Mrs. Herman was instantly
killed and Mr. Herman wus so badly
Injured that his death is only a maitter
of time. There are no other members
of the Herman family.
The death list in East St. Louis Is be
ing increased by the finding of bodies
crushed and mangled almost beyond
recognition. The following additional
list of dead In St. Louis was given out
at police headquarters this morning:
Mrs. Emma Sullivan, H. Wlntcrmnn, a
contractor; George Lucky, the seven
year-old. son of Mrs. George Lucky;
Mlko Btlcker, a lad of 16 years; Mrs.
Eliza Hennesyy. Peter MnnJey, Thomas
Griffin, a survivor of the six hundred
British cavalrymen of Balaklava
fame.
Mrs. Horace Trump was at the bed
side of her sick sister in their home.
In her arms she held an Infant. On the
floor by her was a four-year-old child.
The storm wrecked the building, kill
ing Mrs. Trump and both children.
The sick woman was saved.
Halllsy's hotel, situated just south
of the bridge in East St. Louis, was
one of the buildings overthrown. It Is
estimated that of Its Inmates at the
time of the dlsaser at least a dozen
are still under the ruins. It is feared
that a large number, how many it is
not known, lie crushed under the
wrecks of the Martell house, the Durant
house and the Relay Retreat, which
were all hurled together Into Cahodla
creek.
VANDALS APPEAR.
Governor Altgeld Is in command of
the militia companies called out to as
sist in the work of rescue and to protect
the city from vandalism and being
looted by swarms of thieves who are
reported to be on their way to East St
Louis. One hundred special policemen
were sworn In this morning and are
now patrolling the Are and wind-swept
territory. The situation on the east
side of the railroad, while very serious,
might be worse. The freight yards of
every line on the river front were com
pletely covered with overturned cars
and the wreckage of their freight
houses, but the superintendents, with
large gangs of workmen, set to work at
an early hour yesterday morning to
clear the tracks and by evening the
Wabash.Clover Leaf.the Ohio and Miss
issippi and the Baltimore and Ohio
routes, announced that they were In
shape to receive freight at their yards
on the east side. The Illinois Central,
the Vandalla and the Louisville and
Nashville and the Big Four were the
chief sufferers on the river front, but
the Vandalla and the Louisville and
Nashville have each commodious
freight depots on this side of the river
In the north end.
Hundreds of homeless slept in the
open air last night. The public build
ings were thrown open for the accom
modation of the destitute, and these
places were crowded to their capacity.
Food for the hungry was furnished lib
erally by citizens and keepers cf restau
morning thousands surrounded the tem
porary shelters. All night and this
morning thousands surroundedthe tem
porary morgues and heart rending1
scenes were enacted as relatives came
to take away the remains of their loved
ones and parties seeking to Identify
some of the unknown dead, made the
rounds of the silent forms. Hundreds
of furniture wagons, carts and in many
cases buggies and private vehicles were
brought Into requisition this morning to
move away whatever of the personal
property can be dug out of the ruins,
or, at. the risk of lives of the salvage
corps can be gotten from the lower
rooms of residences, the walls of which
are tottering and threatening every
moment to bury those beneath. Fortu
nately the weather Is fine and there are
no indications of a rainy spell.
ALTGELD'S MISTAKE.
The published statement of Governor
Altgeld that he did not believe the city
was in need of outside aid has not been
met with a kind reception. Mayor Bad
er and the reBt of the townspeople here
feel that they are In most urgent need
of all assistance they can get. There
are hundreds of persons here with no
homes, no money and even without a
stitch of clothing of their own to be
provided for, and assistance, from other
cities will be required.
Governor Altgeld Is not blamed, but
the citizens believe that he did not
thoroughly grasp the gravity of the sit
uation owing to the shortness of hl9
stay here. Mayor Bader, in speaking
of the situation, said:
"As near as we have been able to
count u: nearly 600 houses have been
destroyed, with not less than from three
to six people In each of them. Their
clothing In great part was destroyed,
blown away, if you please. So was
their furniture and bedding, and few of
them have any money to buy more.
"We have been obliged to appeal to
the outside .world for aid, and I hope
that It will be responded to readily for
the emergency Is dire and pressing."
. TAYLOR.

court In the rear of hla hotel on Oak

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York. May There were no traces
of the weakness whleli characterised yes
terday' stock market. In fact, specula
tion throughout presented quite a Arm un
dertone. The change tor the better was
due principally to the desire of short to
cover up their contracts over the double
holiday, although Judgd Wheeler's deci
sion In the Joint Traffic association case
is beginning to be beter understood by the
street and this had not a little to do wl'h
covering movements. Beside the enga:s
ment of gold tor shipment to Kurope to
morrow red below estimates, fl.800.UUV be.
lng engaged for export. Against this
withdrawal a national city bank turned in
fl,OU0,000 of the metal to the sub-treasury
In exchange for legal tenders. A good deal
has been said of late about heavy ship
ments In case treasury officials should de
cide to lower the premium on tine gold
bars. Today the local assistant treasurer
received notice to sell bars at ht premium,
but there was no rush for bars as antlcl.
pated. Now that the banks, however,
are showing more disposition to turn !n
their gold and strengthen the government,
less anxiety is felt about the efflux. Tb
Improvement in prices ranged from 4 to
2 per cent, and was well distributed.
Sugar was notably firm, brokers connect
ed with refining Interests being anions,
the largest buyers. Rubber stocks were
heavy and lower, the common falling 2 to
21. and the preferred 2-f to SO1-. It was
rumored that there wore fresh dissension
among the insiders, but the stories couM
not be confirmed. The common subse
quently rallied 1. and the preferred 1
per cent. Toward the close the dealings In
Sugar assumed law proportions and tl'e
whole list developed more animation.
Speculation closed firm in tone. Net
changes show gains of i to per cent.
In the general list and 2ln Consolidated
Gas. Total sales were 92.776 shares.
