| ST. JOSEPH, Mo. Oct. 27.-My last
| letter gave forecasts of a storm wave to
cross the Mississippi valley from 25th to
9th. From that date to November or
10 will occur the tifty-two day rain
period and the heavy storms that belong
to the equinoxes of Venus. In fact No
vember will be noted for great weather
disturbances, especially for tropical hur-
rlcanes and Northwestern billiards. In
the Northwest people will imagine that
winter is coming on ferociously and
early, but after the November storms
are over beautiful weather will return.
Numerous first class disturbances will
occur in November, among which will be
the equinox of Venus at thirty on the
9Th. mercury crossing the SUMS equator
at 23l on the 18th, and the moon cross
ing the earth 8 equator on the 9Th and
22d. / estimate the relative force of the
planets, in their influences on the storms
and weather, the first having the great
est force, the second having the next
greatest, etc., az follows: /. Moon
crossing the earth's equator. 2. The
earth's March equinox. 8. The earth's
September equinox. 4. Earth passing
the SUMS equator. 5. Venus equinox
at 80. 6. Mercury crossing sun e equa-
tor at 23l. Z. Venus equinox at 210.
8. Venus passing sun IS equator. 8. Mer-
curry or Venus crossing the esrth's equa-
tor when near the earth. 10. The moon
running South or North. IL. Mars pass

The regular storm waves are inde-XF
pendent as to their movements from
west 10 east in this latitude and around
their centers in the Pacific, Atlantic and
Indian oceans, but are caused TO increase
Or decrease in force by the electric force
Of the planets.
do not know the cause of the storm
waves but L believe them to be perma-
lent electric organizations that move en-
.lrely around their centers In the oceans,
ollow the sun near the equator and
move entirely around the earth in this
attitude in about twenty-three days.
About the first days of November the |
hurricanes will begin to increase in force. |
OUR principal interest is in those that |
move around the center of the North At
antic ocean. Wherever they may be,
hey will develop their greatest force
bout November 8. These slow moving |
forms require as much as q week to |
move from the west coast of Africa to {
he Windward islands northeast of South
america, and another week to move
through the Gulf Of Mexico and I'D the
atlantic coast. l am not yet able to
i've the date on which these hurricanes 7

7ould investigate in the right direction.
believe they move around their center
] about twenty three days, the time re-
u:rsd for the storms in this latitude TO
owe around the earth. While these Q
urricans are at their greatest force on |
ne ninth l expect severe blizzard in
be Northwest.
The next storm wave will be due TO
ave the Pacific coast about October 80,
ass the Mississippi valley from October
| to November 2nd, and reach the At .
'utic coast about the 3rd. 1t Is not ex-
ected TO be great storm but the one Z
