Its foil strength passed some sixty miles north ot here out to Labrador and the Atlantic, leaving a swath of debris behind. The only news received from Lower Ontario i» rout incoming trains. It will take weeks to restore telegraphic communication. Four houses were uuroofed at Monlinetto, on the Cornwall canal. Oscar Bor wick, Jr., was killed by a falling chimney. At Renfrew every barn was rased and forty head of cattle were killed. A party of lumber men had their huts swept away, and two of them were so badly injured by falling trees that their lives are despaired of.

Just as the city clocks tolled the hoar ot six this morning the workmen found and carried out from the rear of Weldints cellar the body of Dr. J. L. Reed. Dr. Heed was over eighty years of age, and was widely known, especially in Philadelphia. This swells the number of bodies found to fourteen. The police have now nine names on their list of missing. As the work goes on to-day it is thought the greater part of these will be transferred to the death roll. Certain it is the mins have some horrible secrets yet to reveal.
