(By Associated Press.)

New York, June 12-The morgues
and undertaking shops in the metro

of more than three score men, women
and children, victims of yesterdays
brief, cyclonic thunderstorm.
Marine police were graphing Pei
ham bay and Long Island sound, off
City Island, where the greatest toll
was taken among Sunday canoelsts
and where fishermen predicted they
would find at least score. Eye-wit-
nesses estimated the dead at even a
higher figure.
The death list leaped ahead when
an incoming tide returned eighteen
more bodies that had been swept out
to sea last night. Four more bodies
were recovered at Hunters Island and
two were reported to have been pick
ed up at Tavers Island.
City Island-haven for Sunday
pleasure-seekers and amateur fisher
men-was the hardest hit point in the
metropolitan area, but casualties, by
drowning mostly, were reported from
many other points.
The beach at City Island today pre-
sented a desolate spectacle. Several
hundred persons, relatives Of the miss
ing victims waited in little groups
among the wreckage on the sand for
some word of the fate of their loved
ones.
Marine squad police, exhausted by
their all-night vigil, continued their
cruise keeping sharp lookout for ad-
ditional bodies.
e.. Thousands of roWboats and launches
dotted the sound off City Island, just
before the breaking of the storm;
when it had passed, the water was
strewn with overturned craft, and the
buildings on shore resembled a battle
torn village in NoMan's Land. Many
parties hurrying for safety saw people
struggling in the water, but dared not
stop for fear of capsizing their own
craft. The rescue work started i'm
mediately, but darkness and the panic
stricken crowds hindered the labors
of the volunteer life-savers.
Property damage. estimated at from
100000 to several times that
amount was done by the tornado.
