Fishermen who managed to make
their way across the inlet from Long
port and Atlantic City brought startling
rum0rs of damage by fire and water.
Their information was meagre and an

and created much excitement.

The entire boardwalk is said to have
been swept away. The streets in the
northwestern section of the city are
under water and cellars of cottages and
The inlet is a scene of desolation and
ruin. The entire inlet appears to be
black with floating wreckage. The
whole beach front from the inlet to

while the waves, high and mighty, keep
up their constant thunder.
Three houses have been washed away
at South Atlantic. Longport is entirely
cut off with a big washout just north
Of the cottages.
Communication Restored.
The Reading railroad succeeded in get
ting the first wire into Atlantic City &C
3 o'clock. The joyful news sent over it
was, No hotels destroyed and no lives
lost Another despatch says, Several
boats are now on their way here, sup
posed to contain newspaper reporters.
"A later dispatch says that il Is hardly
likely that communication by rail can
be established for two or three days.
The company succeeded in locating
the break on its line at the drawbridge.
and was glad to find that the current
was complete after the break had been
repaired. Two cottages are said to have
been washed away on Baltic Avenue.

disaster is the greatest that has occurred
in the coal regions for years. In some
places the earth has gone down over
twenty feet. The loss to the mine own
ers will exceed 100000. Luckily there
were no dwellings on the tract. The
cave in affects about thirty acres of min
ing property belonging to the Delaware

WILKEsBARRE. Pa. Sept. l2. Over
1000 miners were thrown idle b ~
extensive cave in the Delaware ane
Hudson company's coIlieries ct Ply
mouth. Thirty acres Of surface went
down twelve feet. and with crash that
caused the earth throughout the entire
Wyoming valley 70 tremble. Suspect
ing that an earthquake had occurred
people rushed from their dwellings.
and FOR time there was great excite
ment.
The truth was not known until morn
ing. IL was then ascertained that an
immense cave in had taken place in No.
ID. and III. colIiery. An area Of about
thirty acres, known as the Bennett vein,
had caved. The place had been work
ing, cracking and falling 50 badly that
the foreman, Joseph Sleever, sent the
miners of the east gangway, which con-
tains thirty chambers, home IN the
morning. and the colliery quit work at
noon. That part Of the mine which col
lapsed had been worked out several
years ago.
The sudden rush Of air incident to the
fall would probably kill the men who
might be working in other gangways of
the mine. Fortunately every one was
out of the colliery when the cave took
place. After everything had settled the
mules were found alive in the stable,
which is situated at a safe distance from
the fall. The cave occurred in the mid
die lift, and win not materially inter
fere with the future operations of the
colliery. Had 1t not been FOR the fore
thought of the superintendent in order
ing the men from the mine before the
cave occurred. it is reasonable TO sup
pose that upwards of 200 lives would
have been lost
