Wbst Brjratuon.Wls., July 10. A wind storm of tor rlOo violence swept over Superior to-day. carrying death and destruction In Its path.

I The wind was accompanied by pouring rain. Ths air was heavily with electricity. The storm lasted only about thirty minutes, but during that period many thousands of dol- i larsof damage was done, besides the taking I of at least five lives, and the visiting of terrible injuries upon many persons. During ths progress of tha storm an alarm ot fire was turned in from the Fifth ward, and the department responded to And the new lares three-story frame hotel on Third street, near Lamborn avenue, a mass nf ruins. The struc-tuie had blown down, and the cry went up from hundred excited Individuals that the wrock was the tomb ot many men.

The news flashed over tbe city with startling rapidity. Hacks and drays containing their loads flew to the soene of the dlsastor. Meantime the rain was falling in torrents, and tho lightning was crashing like artillery. The building Is a complete) wrook. Iu spite ot tbe pouring rain the visitors at the scene rushed In and assisted the firemen.

Men In all professions nnd walks of lite stood (Shoulder to shoulder and worked with only the thought of humanity' sake. The work la still In progress, fresh men taking the places ot those who give up through fatigue. Fully 3.000 people are at tbe ruins. At a late hoar to-night the dead, as far aa known, are? John Laur, married, wed 86. Charlss Lucius, single, 24, Herman Paussey, single, 26.

Doctors Connor nnd Wylle did excellent work In the matter ot caring lor tbs Injured and providing for their conveyance to St, Francis Hospital. The Assistant Chief of the Fire Department broke his leg during the work of rescue. While rope was straining on a ma-a of broken framework, the crib work to which It was attached parted and struck him. Ascone of intense exoltement reigned. Men worked with desperation, and many a good suit ot clothing was gladly sacrificed to tbe work of resouo.

It was pitiful, too. Women ran about regardless of the rain and mud. wringing their hands and crying, filled with the torrlble foor that their husbands or broth-ois had been tarried In tbe ruins. An eyewitness ot the disaster says he saw a erow ot workmen run into the building to seek shelter from tho storm. Fully thirty or forty men must have been Inside.

They were dls-trloutad over all tee floors. It appears that thaitfattjoo tha. third- floor took warning first1' and five were seen to jump nnd set away in safety. This disaster wns the central feature, bat much damage was done In all directions. Tha ateel hoisting and convoying apparatus employed by the Silver Creek and Morris and Ohio Coal companies wa- badly damaged.

How much cannot be ascertained at present, but it will bo very costly and delay the handling of coal from vessels.
