The san Francisco CdH estimated the damage

sixtr-mie gale of wind were reported there at )

Lieut. Finley, chief OF the weather bureau,
has sent out bulletin giving the course OF the
storm. Beginning at Vancouver island it spread
eastward over the British provinces until 1t was
held in check by al area of high barometer
with temperatures of from 10 to - degrees be-
low zero. It then swept south over Montana,

CITIES.
THE CALIFOR%IA STORM OVER.
Clear and Pleasant Weather Succeeds
the Rain ard Hurricane.

SAN Francisco, Dec. 1.-The storm
which began here az midnight on Satur-
day. and which partially broke away on
Monday, began again on Monday night.
and continued without cessation until
last night The storm reached its greatest
intensity during Tuesday night, when the
wind attained velocity of seyenty-two
miles an hour. In their destructive force
the wind and rain caused greater damage
to telegraph service than ever before
known. 1t was not until this afternoon
that telegraph communication was re-
sumed in partial way to outside points.
Several washout occurred on the railroad
lines between this city and San Jose. Cal.
and caused the steppage of trains for
twenty-tour hours, but no other damage
of serious nature has been reported on
railroad lines in other parts of the state.
The rainfall was gfeatest in the upper
Sacramento valley, where it was
nearly nine iaches, and the
Feather river has, risen eight feet.
The American river has also risen rapidly
above Sacramento, causing log booms to
give away and covering the sandbars in
front of the town of Folsom with stray
logs. The temporary supports of the new
steel suspension bridge at that place were
carried away and tie great structure fell
into the river, causing; loss of over $780,
900. In San Joaquin valley little or no
rain has fallen.
In this city and ticinity the rainfall
during the storm was nearly six inches, or
about one-fourth of the average total rain
fall for the year. At the suburban towns
of Tiburon, SausiaIfto and Belvidere,
where several yacht clubs make their
headquarters, nullber of houses were
damaged and number of yachts and
small crafts at anchoe were badly damaged
or wrecked. At Mill valley, on the mar
row gauge road, the wind was strong
enough to blow car off the track at an
exposed trestle. but no one was injured.
This morning broke clear and pleasant
and the weather has remained SO during
most of the day.
