Tho New Calvary Baptist Church Blown
Down--western Union and Postal Wire
Difficulties,
WASHINGTON, Oct 14.-The storm
was very severe in Washington and the
damage great. Associate Justice Brown
of the Supreme Court had an artery in
his head cut by plate glass window,
which was blown in at his residence,
and he came very near bleeding to death
before medical assistance could be OBJ
tanned to tic the artery. He is reported
out of danger this morning, but will be
confined to the house for some days,
The walls Of the new Calvary Bap-
fist Church blew down, fortunately
without injuring anybody. Damage to
police and fire alarm service was greater
than ever known before. The city lay
all night at the mercy Of fire with a
gale of unequalled violence blowing.
The tide on the river rose to an unpre-
cedented height. Considerable injury
was done along the wharves. Trees
We're blown in every direction, and in
some instances delayed the traffic on the
street railways for hours.
The Western Union and Postal Tele'
graph Companies suffered greatly from
the storm. Both companies were Obliged
to refuse business to all points, theonly
wires that worked satisfactorily being
those running to Baltimore.
The United Press lost control of al
its leased wires between 6 and O'Clock
in the evening.
when the late collections of mail from
the street boxes was made the collector
found nearly all the letters and paper
water soaked, some of them being Sc
badly disfigured that 1t will require con
siderable effort on the part of the de
partment to ascertain the destination o
the matter. The Pennsylvania railroad
suffered more from last nights storm
than on any recent storm disaster.
