How Tbs Simmer Resorts Earaa

ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., Nov. 2L-The storm
has abated and the sun is now shining brightly.
A survey Of the situation shows that no such
destruction of property on this beach has been
known since the Incorporation Of the city. Hun
dreds of property-owners from Philadelphia and
other localities have come down, fearing their
property would be swept away last night. The
tide rsceded to-day, and the ses. under the in
fuence of q strong northwest wind, was beaten
down, but the result, especially in the lower por-
tons of the city, 10 ore OF almost complete
destruction. The work of the waves was quick
and complete, and the individual losses are nu-
merous. In the Excursion House district the
destruction of the property is enormous, al
though unexpected, AZ the survey shows that for
twenty years the beach in that section has
changed but little, and danger from storms was
not anticipated. The beach. to-day. is lined
with thousands OF residents and visitors, includ-
ing photographers and artists, sketchingt the
ruins. Many of the sufferers by the storm are
people Of moderate means, and their losses will
be severely felt in the coming winter.
CoHAssETT, Mass, Nov. 21.-Summer cot
tages and similar structures On the water front
are wrecked and their ruins line the beaches.
Many Of the beautiful drives to the summer res.
idences are washed away or badly quilted and

TO land property is along Crescent beach, be-
tween Green hill and Gun rock. Along this
stretch is a line Of from twenty to thirty small
summer cottages, averaging in size about twen-
ty by thirty feet. There 10 not a single one of
these that does not bear marks Of the terrible
force Of the storm. Some of them were lifted
from their foundations and carried back several
feet The total loss to property on this beach
will reach many thousand dollars. At the At
lantic House the damage by water to carpets
and ceilings Is estimates at s., 900.

AN EXCITED SOUTHR0N.


MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 2L.-The Dispatch,

Numerous Vessels Caught in the Gale and Ice
with a Probable Loss OF Many Lives.
MONTREAL, Nov. 2I.-One of the most severe
storms Of snow and wind known here for years
broke over this province and Ontario Sunday
evening and still continues. The wind at times
blew as hard as seventy miles per hour. The
streets and surrounding country are covered
with snow-drifts, ten feet deep in places. and
the most severe cold prevails. Horsscar lines
here have stopped running. four people
were picked up in the streets by the police On
Sunday night unAbls to make their way through
the storm, being either benumbed by the cold or
bewildered by the winds.
The storm was felt more severely on the lower
St Lawrence than anywhere else. The steamer
Pomeranian. bound for Liverpool, which was
grounded, also made an attempt TO reach Que
bee on Sunday with the aid of four tugs. She
got as far as Battiscan, forty-four miles this
side of Quebec. whore she anchored for the
night. Yesterday not only the steamships but
the tugs, too. were frozen in solid. The Pomer-
anisn will not get through this season. Her
bows are badly cut by the ice. and the channel
being so narrow she will probably be forced
ashore on the rocks and become \ total loss.
The Allan Steamship Company. which owns her.
will lose over $500, 900.
