Month of November will be Noted for
Great Weather Disturbances.
The Relative Fore. OF the Planets In 1h'ir In :
fluence on the storma and Weather
Cause Of Storm Waves.
Special TO the Gazette.

OF. JOSEPH, Mo-, Ocl. Z3.--Ny ias'
letter gave forecasts of a storm wave to
cross the Mississippi valley from 10Th to
eth. From that date to November 9 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 drst-class disturbances Will
occur in November, among which will be
the equinox of Venus at thirty on the
6th. mercury crossing the suns equator
at 23l on the 18th, aud the moon cross
ing the earth 3 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., as follows: /. Moon
crossing the earth's equator. 2. The
earth s March equinox. 3. The earth's
September equinox. 4 Earth passing
the SUMS equator. 5. Venus equinox
at 80. 6. Mercury CROSSING suns equa-
tor at 23l. 4. Venus equinox at 2l0.

The regular storm waves are indie
pendent Is to their movements from
west TO east in this latitude aud 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 believe them to be perma-
nent electric organizations that move en-
trely around their centers in the oceans,
follow the sun near the equator and
move entirely around the earth In this
latitude 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,
they win develop their greatest force
about November 8. These slow moving
storms require as much as a week to
mQye from the west coast of Africa to
lxbWindward islands northeast of South
america, and another week to move
through the Gulf of Mexico and up the
Atlantic coast. l am not yet able to
give the date on which these hurricanes
will pass given point. This might be
known If the national weather bureau
would Investigate in the right direction.
/ believe they move around their center
in about twenty-three days, the time re-
CURED for the storms in this latitude to
% owe around the earth. While these
hurricans are at their greatest force on
the ninth / expect a severe blizzard in
the Northwest.
The next storm wave will be due to
leave the Pacific coast about October 80,
pass the Mississippi valley from October
81, TO November End, and reach the At
lautic coast about the 3rd, II is not ex-
pected to be a great storm but the one

ter-Is expected to be q destructive
