Storm Notes.

1t is reported that Mr.. Henry Ambos of
Thunderbolt, is seriously if not fatally in
jured by his wharf turning over on him
during the storm.
Observer Smyth and his assistant, Mr.
Dey, were kept pretty busy from day
break Sunday until after midnight watch
ing the several instruments and the
progress of the storm as indicated by
them.
1t was reported in the city yesterday
that a chimney at Mr.. John 0. Smith
house, on the Thunderbolt road, had
fallen on him during the storm, and that
it had broken both his arms. The extent
of Mr.. Smiths injuries could not be as
certained this afternoon.
1t is generally conceded among the rice
brokers that the rice crop is almost a
total loss The plantations on the South
Carolina shore can be seen from the city
entirely covered by the water The
early rice, which was just being
harvested, is all whipped out, and the
June rice will be ruined by the salt water
which covers it.
Considerable anxiety was apprehended
concerning Messrs. George Walthour,
bookkeeper at Teideman Bros, and
Harry Walker of the KnickerbOcker
Ice Company. They had gone fishing

not returned. Tcl1eman Bros heard
subsequently that Mr. Walthour was
SAT e at Warsaw, where he remained dur
in. the storm, not being able to get TO the
city. Both gentlemen returned yester-
day afternoon safe and well.
The beacon light on Tybee beach, the
range light for Tybee light was blown
down during Sunday night.
Capt. Carter went down the river yes
terday to see if the government works
had yielded in any way to the storm. He
found that the works had not been in
iured but that the contractors plant was
a total loss. Dredges Nos. 5 and Z were
up on the Tybee railroad and were entire
wrecks. The contractors will suffer a
heavy loss. The lights all along the river
were considerably damaged.
Messenger John Harrison Of the city
exchange, had an experience Sunday night
during the storm. Mr.. Harrison lives at
2l1 Charlton street. He got up to take a
look out of his window on the second floor
at II O'Clock AS he did so tree across

THE TWO STORMS COMPARED.
Observer Smyth's Figures Tell the
Tale of the TWO Hurricanes.

Observer Smyth's Figures Tell the
Tale of the Two Hurricanes.
The following are the comparisons of
the weather records of the storms of 1881
and 1898, as taken from the records at the
weather bureau. Observer Smyth pre-
dlcted the cyclone as early as last Friday
morning, warning mariners to
keep themselves advised as to
the cyclones progress, as it
was moving this way. Satur-
day morning he followed up this
prediction with more emphatic
one stating that the storm was advancing
from the southeast and was expected to
strike Savannah at almost any moment.
VI the storm he says:
The day opened cloudy and threatening
win brisk northeasterly wind gradu-
ally Increasing. Savannah probably
caught the center of the storm as there
was lull sometime after midnight,
winch was probably caused by the
storm center passing over station.
Mr. Smyth had no reports of the storm
IRON other stations, and consequently
could give nothing definite with re-
gard to it. He thought, however, as
near as he could calculate that the
storm was between 800 and 1000
niles wide, that it recurved somewhere
near the South Atlantic coast and passed
vi TO the northeast. The total rainfall
between $3.50 a. m, Sunday, and o'clock
'iIS morning was $3.50 inches The tenn
pefature remained about stationary be-
tween Il and 81.
Inc following is a statistical record of
'le wind velocity as it was recorded at the
weather bureau from hour to hour yes
terday:

William Thompson and John Rivers
were committed to Jail yesterday on war
rants from Justice McDermott's court
charging them with the larceny of car
brasses from the Central and Savannah,
Florida and Western railways. They are
said to be old hands at the business.
George Mcintosh, convicted in1S92 of an
attempt to commit murder upon John K.
Fenwen, was granted a new trial by
Judge Falligant yesterday and immedi-
aJelY plead guilty to assault and battery
for which he was assessed SO or twelve
months on the chain gang.
The Beebe alimony suit was on in the
Superior Court yesterday, and witnesses
were introduced both for the plaintiff and
the defense. Some of the witnesses in'the
case live in bingham county and they
win be brought here by Thursday, to
which date the trial has boon continued.
The Franklin base ball club defeated
the Star base ball club by score of IL to
4 yesterday afternoon. The batteries
were MoskOvitz, Cooley and Collins for
the Franklins, and O'Neill and Sauls for
the Stars. Collins, of the Franklins,
made twO-bagger when the bases were
full.
The rainfall at Augusta for the twenty
four hours ending at 8 o'clock yesterday
morning, was 3.74 inches. Maximum
velocity of wind tifty-two miles per hour.
Observer Smyth was only able to get in
a few reports from sub-stations in the
Savannah district No reports whatever
were received from the regular weather
bureau stations.

A horse attached to a dairy wagon was
knocked down by live wire at South
BrOadd and Barnard streets yesterday
afternoon. A loose telephone or burglar
alarm wire had fallen across the trolley
wire of the Barnard street line and be-
came charged with electricity The
horse struck the wire with his foot and
fell in the street. Assistant Superinten-
dent Dow, of the Belt Line, happened to
be on the scene and Immediately ground
ed the wire by bringing it in contact with
the rails. The horse was then dragged
back. He did not appear to be seriously
hurt.

GETTING THE WIRES UP.
The First Connection With the Out
side World Last Night.

The First Connection With the Out
side World Last Night.
Very little could be done with the tele-
graph wires last night, as it seems they
were torn down everywhere over the
entire radius of the storm.
Most of the Western Unions wires go
out by the way of the Central Railroad
and between here and the Charleston and
Savannah junction about so poles were
blown down. The work of repairing
them was begun yesterday, but it was inn
possible to locate at once all the breaks.
So Savannah remained for some hours en-
tirely cut off from communication with
the outside world except by rail.
Yesterday afternoon, however, the
company mana red to get wire to Jack
sonville. This was the only wire to out
side points at any distance that could be
used at all, and up to a late hour last
night that one wire was kept hot carry
8 ing out messages of the destruction in
n Savannah and bringing them in from other
points.
Linemen were at work all dav upon
the telephone wires, but very few of them
were put in good condition. The lines on
Whitaker street and some of those on
Bay were in working order, but elsewhere
no connection could be obtained. Mana
ger Polk says they will all be in working
order within few days.
The electric light wires were still
tangled last night, and the city was in
darkness except for the moon and gas.

TIE STORM OF 1854.
The Hurricane That Swept Savannah
in That Y ear.


There was no national signal service,
and nothing in the nature of a weather
bureau in 1854. The ship news depart
ments of the daily papers in those days
afforded whatever meteorological fore
casts they happened to get in a general
way.
Thus on the early morning of the great
gale of thirty-nine years ago the MORNING
News noted "the preva-
easterly wind'-only that and nothing
more. Yet it was a premonition of the
unleashed furies of wind and rain which
| that same day broke upon Savannah, and
which continued in mad riot until 10
o'clock at night.
At2 o'clock p. M, Sept. s, 1854, the
wind in this city had taken on the proper
tions of an unprecedented hurricane, and
it was at this hour that the epoch of de-
structiveness to property fairly set in.
THE wHARvEs FLOODED.
Three feet of water covered the wharves
and cotton yards, and tin from the roofs,
tiles, shingles, slate, shutters, signs and
broken tree limbs filed the air or i'm
peded the thoroughfares. The wall of
the Georgia and Iron steamboat compa-
MES fell with crash, many large store
houses gave up their roofs entire, the
Methodist church was partially uncov-
cred, and the MORNING News Office set the
early example of yielding up its protecting
tinware, and Hutehinson's Island was
then, as ever since, a scene of devastation,
and reports of loss of life among its negro
denizens made even more lurid the woful
accounts that, authentic and otherwise,
kept pace with the progress of the gales
undated fury. AT that time, however,
Hutchinson's Island was in high state of
cultivation, and the bright, well ordered
| array of residences and other structures
afforded pleasant view as daily OBJ
| served from the city.
HUTCHINsoN's ISLAND SWEPT.
But the storm of 1854 utterly wrecked
it, dismantling and demolishing merci-
lessly, sweeping away every
substance which could be floated, sub
merging the rice fields and farms, and
drowning over thousand cattle. So
rapidly did the tide rise that both escape
and assistance were early rendered i'm
possible. From this side the progress of
humiliation could only be helplessly
viewed through spy glasses.
The shipping in port suffered severely,
vessels breaking away from their moor
ings, and one, a brig, being blown upon
the wharf. Tybee, then a considerable
harbor, contained several large vessels.
They all had a rough experience.
Yellow fever was raging in Savannah
at the date of the hurricane visitation of
1854, and on the day Of the storm there
had been thirteen interments growing out
of that fell epidemic, of which number
| two were Savannahians, one a South Car
Gilman and ten were natives of Ireland
On the date of the gale the mortality
numbered Is, of which II were victims of

s,ructed about two feet of the dykes APP
mar above the water.
AtCamp No. 1 no damage was done to
the stockade or buildings, and no one was
hurt.
THE NEW CANAL UNINJURED.
The new canal there stood the storm
,-sl. none of the bridges or trunks were
;rfured. and that portion of the canal
dvkps which had been constructed for
some time was not injured at all. The
recent work which was not yet fully set
lied was considerably washed by the rain
and waves, but in no place did the water
go over the dykes, excepting just about
195 feet above the outlet trunk In this
reach of the canal the strong northeast
wind had a fair sweep and drove the
waves with fury against the dyke-the
tide being then about full flood, a break
WAS made through which the water
flowed, cutting the Montgomery cross
road Just west of the trunk bridge, and
damaging it considerably The fury with
which the waves DedJ against bH6 trunk
bridge is marked on the bridge ratings
within a foot of their top. Some dead fish
were also found on the bridge this morn
ing. no doubt killed by being driven with
force against it and then being tossed by
the winds on It. The bridge is not injured
in any part
THE SKIDAwAY BRIDGE.
The bridge on the Skidaway road on
the causeway across the marsh just west
of the Isle of Hope is gone and the cause
way is greatly damaged Trees were
blown across the roads in many places
and some of the roads are cut very badly
The Meridian road is not injured in any
place. Quite mum Der of old bridges are
gone, or broken to pieces on various roads.
The gangs of hands were employed yester-
day in cutting out the trees which had
fallen across the several roads and at
tending to such other work as is most ur-
gent.
The Musgrove water shed asserted its
majesty and the whole swamp is lake.
Springfield canal seemed to it in compari-
son as pipestem to hogshead.
