About 100 Injured and VIII
Iage Ruined When Furi-
Gus Gale Sweeps Down
Sunday Afternoon

NEW YORK, June 12.-(By the
Associated Press)-The death toll OF
the brief but terrific hurricane that
swooped down on the metropolitan
area late yesterday passed the sixty
mark today with indications that the
total number of dead might go much
higher.
The death list leaped ahead when
an incoming tide returned eighteen
more bodies than had been swept
out to sea last night. Four more
bodies were recovert at Hunters
island and two were reported to
have picked up at Travers island.
City Island-haven for Sunday
pleasure seekers and amateur fish
ermen-was the hardest hit point
in the metropolitan area, but casul-
ties, mostly by drowning, were re-
ported from many other points.
The beach at City island today
presented desolate spectacle. Sew
eral hundred persons, relatives of
the missing, worn by hysteria, wait
ed in little groups among the wreck
age 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 a sharp lookout for
additional bodies.
Full List Not Known
The full toll of the storm may not
be known for days. The crowds
that thronged City Island. yesterday
were drawn from all parts of the
metropolitan district, and probably
numbered many persons from dis
tant points, who had gone to the
island to escape the broiling heat
of a Sunday in New York.
The list Of missing, being compiled
at the police bureau, grew steadily
BY noon fourteen persons had
been listed as missing. Police said
many others were probably missing
who had not been reported.
Boatmen at City island said there
were forty-six small boats as yet I'M
accounted for. Occupants of many
of these undoubtedly saved by
United States coast guards and by
members of yacht clubs about the
island, who put out as soon as the
terrific blow had subsidized. But the
police believe many more were lost.
There were at least $50 small boats
and canoes out when the squall
struck.
The Hudson and Harlem rivers
claimed their toll of canoe and small
boat victims also, while six persons
were killed by the fall Of trees up
rooted by the gale.
All the damage was wrought in
less than a quarter Of an hour. The
New York weather bureau reports
the storm lasted officially but five

CHARGE c. D. P. WILL
TRY To BUY ELECTION

WASHINGTON, June 11.-An
other sweeping charge that Repub
leans were building up mammoth
campaign fund to buy next fal
election was made in Senate Satur
day by Senator Pat Harrison, Mis-
sissippi.
Declaring large manufacturing
interests, specifically protected by
the McCumber tariff, were giving
campaign contributions of $4,000
each, Harrison said tn "sky was the
limit in Republican efforts to secure
a fund to buy elections"
Harrison charged the fund ha6
the backing of certain members Of
the cabinet and senate, who "were
personally interested in companies
benefited by Republican legisla
ton"
The initial drive for funds, Tiari
rison said, was instituted at a meet
ing here two days ago, which, he de
clared was attended by Vice Presi
dent Coolidge and members Of The
cabinet and senate.
"a newspaper account of that
meeting" Harrison asserted, "said
the vice presidents speech was a
'humdinger.' I looked into die
tionary and the nearest approach tt
'humdinger' :. could find was hum
srSG|
We President Coolidge, occupying
: the chair during Harrison's TRADE
against the Republican party
smiled when the Mississippi senator
referred to his speech.
with all hopes to win by deed
and promise, the Republicans, in q
final, desperate effort, have called
the fat purse boys to the rescue -
Harrison said. "They are working
from the White House, from tie
senate and in secret conferences in
hotels all over the country" he de-
clared.
Senator Medill Mccormick, I'LL
nois, chairman of the senate commit
tee, answered Harrison briefly:
THE American people know the
Republican party assumed full re.
sponsibility in that trying period
following Democratic mismanage-
ment of the war, and that we had
a tremendous task, with a tremen-
dous deficit to make up.
'They also know the Republicans
have reduced by $S.O000OO,O0O an
nually that deficit. They know, too,
that within the last ninety days. g.
100000 have gone back to work, fer
despite this filibuster on the tariff,
there is promise that it will become
a law. With it will come prosperity.
II count it no offense against good
citizenship because leaders of the
Republican party are preparing to
lay these true facts before the
American people,"
Mccormick repudiated Harrison,s
charge that the 'sky was the
limit" for campaign contributions,
adding, "the sky is the limit for
the false charges by opponents of
the present administration"
