BRTIANY STORM TOL MAY B 30 42 Ships Are Still Missing After Furious Hurricane September 19-20. By Radio to The Star. PARIS, France, October 3.—The fishing fleet from Brittany suffered an unprecedented disaster during the tragic night of September 19-20, as the death toll of the furious hurricane which swept the coasts of South Brittany is believed will be at least 200 fishermen and may reach 300. As the crippled £hips were coming back to their ports slowly, it was im- possible so far to giv: an accurate account of the sufferings, but now it must be admitted that, 13 days after the fury, all the boats which escaped have returned and 42 ships, with about 00 men aboard, are still 3 Already the death roll of Ips which returned is 46 men, leaving 39 ‘widows and orphans. To this group of men “lost at sea” it will probably be necessary to add some day 200 or 300 others. Adding to this total the little orphans and widows left in a state of extreme distress, the tragedy directly touches about 500 persons. ‘The extent of the disaster proves the strength of the storm, which swept the coasts without, any warning. Tunny fishing ships are sma!l but sturdy craft. They can_ resist the stormiest 'seas as long as they have their sails, but as soon as their sails are destroyed they can easily be overturned by waves.
