COOL AND COMFORTABLE.
The Present Weather Partly Due TO
an Erratic Cyclone.


Yesterday brought genuine cool wave.
The rains and storms in the West and
Southwest lowered the temperature until
it was as cool and pleasant as an October
day. In fact it was the coolest day since
May. The mercury when it was at its
highest was but 80, and 1t was
eight degrees below that for several
hours during the twenty-four. 1t started
in the morning from the 70 mark.
A clear sky was overhead all day with
the wind from the northeast. That ls
still the prevailing direction of the wind,
which indicates that the air is rushing to
the southwest, where the cyclone is di-
Viding interest with the Mexican war. AT
Galveston the velocity of the
wind was fifty-three miles an hour
before daylight. The p. m. cipher was
''infrm," which, translated. means fifty
miles an hour. At IL p. m. the cipher
dispatch for velocity was ''languid"-siX-
teen miles an hour. Ii an "intirm" cy-
clone can make fifty miles an hour Gal
weston has cause to congratulate herself
that she did not get good, healthy, able
bodied one which would probably make
200 miles minute if it was in anything
at all of hurry.
The difference in velocity at 3 p. m.
and IL p. m. was proof That the storm
had passed Galveston. 1t is still the
opinion Of the signal observers here that
the cyclone VIII not give Georgia tee GO
by. 1t seems to be habit cyclones have
OF coming this way about this season of
the year. The memorable one of 1881
struck Savannah Aug. 81, and last year
IA heavy one passed on Aug. "a. The
one Of five years ago came up
direct from st. Thomas, w. 1.
Sometimes the storms dissipate
IN the Gulf, but at other times their speed
is accelerated while sweeping over the
waters of the Gulf. Last night the cyclone
was east of Galveston, but had not
reached New Orleans. 1t was expected
there, however, for The Crescent City sig
nal office predicted foul weather for the
next twenty-fOur hours, although it was
fair when the prediction was made.
Heavy rains are accompanying the storm.
Its slow progress yesterday and on Thurs
day night was on account of the turn
which the cyclone was making. After
travelling away across She Gulf from the
east side it started back. A slightly fall
ing barometer on the Gulf coast showed
that the probable course of the storm will
be between east and northeast.
