The Work of Rescue.
The work of rescue. which began imme-
diately after the storm and has since con-
tinued, will not be completed for a
week or more. Voluntary rescue parties,
squads of police and companies of the fire
department are scattered about the dev-
astated district searching the” rains for
bodies. Every few minutes the and
shifting of the crowds and the signal 3
for a conveyance told of a growsoms find.
and the occasional identification of the
mangled remains by waiting friends added
horror to the scene. in the eastern por-
ticn of the wrecked locality are a number
of factories. and in the ruins of these it is
believed a large number of bodies will be
found. The great piles of brick . and
broken timbers yield slowly to the attack
of the searchers,-eud it is probable that all
the victims of the storm will never be
known. -
The path of the storm through south
St. Louis Is a scene of death and ruin.
The greatest damage was done between
Russell avenue on the south end Chateau
avenue and Pappln street on the north.
Within that territory from the wsstsrn
city limits to the river the wreck lsbe

be told The most wholesale slaughter
was at Seventh and Rutgers streets, where
in persons were crushed to death in the
hiockhenheimer saloon and boarding
house.‘ Many others were buried in adja-
cent houses In Rutgers street.
The rain was so complete that the police
volunteers did not know where to begin
the work of clearing away the debris.
At the storm's height, When the rotunda
of the Lsc'ede hotel was crowded with
tenor strlc (en people who had sought
refuge from the wiud's fury, a panic was
almost precipitated by the falling of a
