The terrific gale which swept Chi- cago and suburbs early Monday morn- ing, Match 24, was the heaviest storm that this district has experienced for many years. Several people were kill- ed, scores were dangerously injured and at least all buildings were wrecked and the roofs of as many more blown off. Several greenhouse establishments were partially destroyed with Hoerber Pros., of lies Plaines and the Well- worth Farm Greenhouses the principal losers. The following Is a list of the ranges in this vicinity that were ,bun- aged by the storm : Des Plaines—Hoerber Bros.' large range was severely damaged and sev- eral houses were almost completely de- stroyed. Two of the houses in the south end were blown down entirely and the house adjoining was almost down also. About eight houses in the other end where roses and carnations are grown are also badly damaged but repairs are rapidly being made and it is expected that nearly the entire crop with the exception of the three houses that are down, will be saved.
