THE GREAT STORM.

Waves Thirty to Forty Feet High on Lake
Superior-Missing vessels-An Unknown
Steam Barge Sunk-Surety that Mono of
the A1penas People Survive.
DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 22.-The schooner
Mary Garrett, coal laden, which left Cleveland
one week ago for Amherstburg, at the mouth
of Detroit river. has not been heard from
since, and it is feared she ia lost with all on
board.
Propellers which arrived here to-day report
the storm last Saturday on Lake Superior one
of unprecedented fury. The Arizona, of the
Lake Superior Transit Company's line, expe-
rienced great difficulty in making Duluth har-
Dor, the waves running from thirty to forty
feet high. The India, of the same line, broke
her wheel chain, fell into the trough Of the
sea, and rolled fearfully. Her final escape
from foundering was almost miracle.
rived in port to-day, after having been out in
the greater part of the terrific storm of Friday,
Saturday, Sunday and Monday. She was bad
ly shaken up, but not seriously damaged.
It was learned to-day that steam barge,
name unknown, is sunk off Two Rivers, Wis,
about ten miles higher up, and that her masts
are visible above the water.
The Tribune learns that the paddle house of
the wrecked Alpena, which came ashore at Hol-
land. to-day, is ingeniously arranged to float
and support a number of persons. That no.
body remained upon it is sufficient proof of
the fury of the storm.
CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-The only additional news
regarding the missing propeller Europe, is a
dispatch from her owner, saying that the Mel
son, her tow, had been let loose, and is now in
port at South Manitou. He believed the Europe
to be wind bound in some place. and that she
will turn up safe.

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-Cables lower on wheat.
and, as in duty bound. our market opened
Nc off. But on report of great destruction to
stacks in Minnesota, small receipts and alb
sence of sellers, the bulls took hold, and We
close 2c better than the opening. 1t is all
very we'll to talk about great damage by the
storm, but guess it didn't all blow away, and
the secret of our advance is that the bulls are
the best betters, having got the money, nerve
and power. There is where the gazelle comes
in. Besides this the trade is so enormous that
100000 bushels in store is not enough to
back it. We ought to have 20, ,00O, ,OO0, and we
will get it 10y and by. The boss, to-day,
thought it was about time to show that he Is
still alive, and as usual, the old reliable; so ne
just took hold of corn and lifted the
price go.
Oats opened weak under very large receipts,
but somehow or other horse feed seemed cured
of the epizootic and closed lively and higher.
Provisions, lower, with a more active mar
ket; but it is now evident to me that 1t is the
packers working the market to get trade start
ed. told you SO the other day, and for every
DAY that passes my theory proves to be more
and more correct-the man who buys now
would not be liable to lose much. But for
some time he should work on small profits, buy
on the breaks and sell on bulges. There is no
long deal on it yet.
