official death list shows a total of forty
three lives lost in the tornado which
swept through Fort Smith Tuesday
night. Not less than seventy others
are injured, large number of whom
are seriously hurt, and several are ex-
pected TO die. The work OF removing
the debris and excavation of the ruined
buildings progressed yesterday. Two
bodies were dug from the ruins of the
Smith block. from which eleven had
previously been taken. The full extent
of the storm may be comprehended
from the fact that thirty-five miles
northeast of the city a quantity of tin
roofing from Garrison avenue buildings
was found.
An unknown woman was taken from
the ruins of the Burgess hotel yester-
day and identified as Mrs. Ida Ennis,
cf Elm Springs. Ark. Her brother is
missing, and it is believed his body is

and fifty buildings were demolished and
