More Are Believed to Have Been Killed, and Hundreds Were Injured—Cherry Hill, a. New Jersey Village, Wiped Out. Gotlien and Union Course Swept. HACKENSACK, N. J ., July 15.—A terrific storm swept over this section Saturday afternoon, doing great damage. At Cherry Hill, a small village a few miles from this place, it developed cyclonic fury, attended by- the demolition of the village and a number of deaths. Cherry Hill received the full sweep of the Wind’s fury, and. within a minute after the storm broke 27 houses, nearly the entire number in the village, were wrecked. The cyclone made a clean path through the center of the place, carrying everything before it. Houses were unroofed or thrown down, trees were uprooted and the crops in the fields leveled to the ground. At the present time it is known that five Were killed, and the injured are numbered by scores, many of them, it is believed, fatally. The dead are: Conrad Friederman, h0- tlekeeper; three unknown Polish laborers and a child of William Ahrens. The storm came from the northwest, heralded by great banks of clouds and a stirring breeze. The atmosphere was warm for a. time and then cold, and after a sec- ond rush of warmth came the cyclone, car- rying death and destruction in its course. The storm center was about 300 feet in width, and the strip over which it passed is a mass of ruins. N ot a building in its path was spared. Those that were not completely demolished Were unroofed or moved from their foundations. Great masses of wreckage were carried through the air by the gale, adding to the destruc- tion. ‘ Lives Crushed Out. Among the buildings wrecked was the Dutch Reformed church, a brick structure, recently erected. The depot, standing be- tween the’ tracks of the New York and New J crsey railroad, was demolished. The wind first tore the roof from the building and landed it 100 feet away. Then the walls fell. The station agent was taken from the ruins later badly injured. The freight depot was also wrecked and the big platform carried several hundred feet from itsplace. Opposite the depot VVGB the-hotel of the village. kept by Conrad Friedcrman. In the hotel at the time besides the proprietor were his wife and three children. Just as ' the storm broke he hurried them into the street, fearing that the building was un- safe. Then ho returned to secure some money in the cash drawer and had reached the door to the street when the whirlwind struck him. He was caught up and hurled 15 or 20 feet to the ground. As he lay there the building toppled over upon him, crushing out his life. His son Willie was fatally injured by the falling timbers. The infant of the Ahren’s family was lying in a crib when the crash came. The house was unroofed, and a flying stick struck the child on the head, tearing off one of the ears as cleanly as though sever- ed by a surgeon’s knife, and causing death. When the husband, who is a New York business man, returned, the sun was shim ing brightly, and his wife was sitting amid the ruins with the body of her dead child in her arms. Two of the Polish laborers who were killed were known as Hen and John and were employed on the farm of Nathaniel Zabriskic. They had sought shelter in a. barn, which was carried away by the storm. Half an hour later their mangled bodies Were dragged from the ruins. The third Polo killed met his fate in a similar wa . y Governor “'erts Asked For Aid. Hardly a person living 'in the track of the storm escaped injury. All are cut and. bruised, and many, it is thought, are fa- tally injured. Alexander Jones, the vil- lage blacksmith, was buried beneath the timbers of his shop. He was taken out badly bruised and sent to the hospital. It is not thought he will recover. At the hamlet of Fairmount, a, few miles from Cherry Hill, six houses were blown down and a dozen persons injured. The news of the disaster at Cherry Hill was soon brought here, and all the avail- able physicians in town were started at once for the scene. Governor Werts has been asked to send tents to the homeless. The storm swept from Cherry Hill to Underclifi; There its effects were not so disastrous, for it merely grazed the vil- lage. Many trees in that vicinity Were up- rooted, and the roofs of several houses bor- dering on Undercliff were started from their foundations. Mid-New Jersey caught an end of the western visitor. Somerville felt a corner of hit, and a hailstorm swept through the Rockaway valley, stripping the fruit trees. No one can yet estimate the damage done in that section. In Somerset county the grain crop is flattened and will probably prove a total loss. . Plainfleld caught a portion of the storm. Skylights, conservatories and greenhouses were battered in by the hailstones. The damage in Plainfleld will amount to thou- sands Of dollars. THE STORM (_)_1_I__ LONG ISLAND. One Woman Killed, Sixteen Persons In) ured and Thirty Houses Wrecked. Woonuavnn, N. Y., July 15.—Wood- haven and Union Course suffered almost as much as did Cherry Hill, N. J. Houses Were unroofed and blown down. Only one fatality so far ‘has fb‘een reported, but 16 are reported injured. The storm at these points was similar to that at Cherry Hill—re. whirlwind. Houses Were blown down” 9nd trees uprooted in the path of the storm. The tract over which it swept Was: a mile long by an eighth ofla mile wide. The dwellings of Henry Wells and Wil- liam Smith on Shaw avenue, Union Course, were lifted from their foundations and turned completed over. Harry Smith’s hotel 'at Un’ion‘cdurse' station? nested! Wrecked. The wind0ws. Were blOwn out and the roof carried aWay. The big horse sheds. were demolished». , Union Course schoolhouse, a brick building, was blown down. The wagon and ,igblacksmith shop of Fritz Shifar, on the Rockaway road, was completely demolished, and 20 wagons in the shop were destroyed. ' Mrs. Jennie Petriquan, who lived at Union Course with her husband and moth- er, left her house just asthe cyclone swept along. The air was full of flying debris, and she was struck on the head by a rafter, torn from the roof of the adjoining school- house. Her neck was broken, and she died. Thirig' dwelling houses were completely wre'"0ke . They were mostly occupied by poor people. The residence of William Blue was damaged, and a stove was upset. The house cpught fire and was burned to the ground‘. _ ' The roof was torn frcm the Catholic schoolhouse on Third street, Woodhaven. The roof of Smith’s hotel was found a mile from the site of the hotel. The real estate office of Henry Bennett at Union Course was wrecked. ' Of those most seriously injured scarcely one escaped a transit through the air. Missi Ada Bainbridgo was in an outhouse when the cyclone struck it. House and girl Were carried,,several hundred feet, the girl be- ing severely bruised, but not seriously in- jured. Mrs. Henry Goodman of Union Course was injured in the head by debris. Mrs. James Fanning was seriously injured about the head by the fall of an outhouse. GOTHAM FELT THE BLAST. It Is Feared That Several Persons Were Drowned In the Harlem River. NEW YORK, July 15.—The upper part of the city, from One Hundred and Tenth street to Fordham, was swept by a fierce storm of wind, rain and hail. The storm raged for 15 minutes, during which time thousands of dollars’ worth of damage was done. It was with a light rain that the storm started. In a. few minutes this light rainfall turnedth a downpour, accompanied by a high wind. It had not rained more than five minutes when hailstones came, the size of hickory nuts. Frightened people ran through the streets, looking for places of safety from the falling hailstones and the falling glass and the bricks that were blown from the tops of houses. Trees were uprooted, awn- ings ,torn from their fastenings and carried high in the air and signs blown down. Horses dashed through the streets, being left by their frightened drivers to care for themselves. Along the Harlem river the scene was wild and fearful. Boats were capsized, and sails were blown across the waters, which were whipped into team by the fury of the wind. Two boats; in the Harlem river. just off the Madison avenue bridge, Were seen to capsizo. J fist at that time the waves were pitching high. Many peo- ple saw these two boats go under the wa- ter, saw many people on them that were thrown into the water, saw them battling with the waves, but were not able to give them help. It is feared that several were drowned. PAINT- Ready Mixed Paint, 24 shades in half pint cans, 100. Stains and Varnish 2c per can. Kalsomine 5c a pound.
