SWEPT BY STORM.
Furth er Particulars From the Hur.
ricene CT Martinique.
It's the Worst Visitation Since the Yenr
IS11-Ninety Fatalities Are Known
OF, and Every Hour Adds
to the Horror.

Official advices received Thursday,
state that the calamity which has
visited Martinique is the most severe
since the year 1917 So far as can be
learned, there have been ninety deaths
rs the result of the hurricanes vista
tion; but it will be some time before
the full extent of the disaster Is
known. Port DcFrance alone had
twelve deaths At st. Pierre five peo-
pie are known to have been killed, but
it is feared that this number does
not represent the entire loss of life in
the capital. As the reports from the
various sections reach st. Pierre, it be-
comes evident that the extent of the
hurricanes devastations has not been
much exaggerated Destruction of
property and loss of life are reported
from all parts of the coast. The latest
reports received at ST. Pierre from
Lamentine show that the hurricane
counts ten victims in that place alone,
in addition to large numb Der injured.
At Francois there have been six
teen people killed and large
number injured, and at Rivieri
Pilote there have been two or more
deaths. and SO on from all parts of the
island comes the tale of woe and DESC
lation. La Trinite sends in list of
its dead at ten, and numbers of more or
less seriously injured. The damage
done to shipping and property may
safely be classed as stupendous. About
two-ffths of the island was under cul-
tivation, and the mountain slopes were
covered with forests; all the cultivation
and all the forest in the path of the
hurricane appear to have been swept
away. The numerous sugar, coffee,
cotton and cocoa plantations, which
have felt the force of the tornado, seem
to have been utterly destroyed. Houses
and barns, store-houses and stables,
have been crushed out of existence, and
a considerable period must elapse be-
fore the island recovers from its terri
BILE visitation. Every hour adds to the
list of horrors already long enough to
startle anybody. Some Of the poorer
classes of people have lost their all, and
the same may be said of number Of
the richer planters
