TIE LOSS At SAVANNAH.
Fears for Two Steamers from New York,
Which Are Long Overdue.

|
SAVANNAH. Aug 2o.-Scveral bodies Of ne
groes were found in the marshes near this
city this afternoon. In all fifteen bodies have
been found in this vicinity. and many arc
missing. Among tho missing are DR.. William
! Duncan, one OF the m ost prominent physicians
| in southwest Georgia.
Charles A. Cunningham and Charles 4. Don't.
two prominent citizens, who were out on u
maroon" They are believed to be drowned.
1t Is probable that the loss OF life will exceed
that OF the big storm OF 1881. when over fifty
| lives were lost.
| Fifteen vessels are ashore on Tybee Island
| carried more than 800 feet inland. Competent
| shipping men say tho loss on these vessels
| will be fully 100000.
The steamship William Crane. Capt. Foster
from Baltimore. arrived this morning. thirty
six hours overdue. For ten hours Capt Foster
| was lashed to tho wheel In tho pilot house.
| For two days the passengers and crew had
| nothing to eat but crackers and sandwiches.
| Cabins on the starboard side were washed
| away and others flooded.
| Considerable other damage was done. Tho
| entire vessel WAS flooded with water. Several
times the Captain was about to give up.
The winds velocity exceeded 100 miles an
hour The steamship City OF Savannah from
New York Is fifty hours overdue. 1t is feared
that she Is lost.
She carried n crow OF about thirty-hve mon,
and Is thought to havo had good good list
OF passengers
The William Crane passed the wreckage OF q
large passenger steamer Off Charleston har-
Dor. and it Is feared that it was that OF the
City OF Savannah which should have been Off
that point some time ahead Of the William
Crane.
Some Snvannahians were passengers on tho
rp,1 h. tn,k
City OF Birmingham. from New York. Is also
overdue.
News from tho Turpentne belt show that
immense damage was done to tho pine trees.
Thousands Of them are down and the tur-
pentine operators have met with heavy loss.
News from the rico islands Is hard to get and
1t will be several days before the full damage
Is known. After the water reccdes the loss
can be estimated.
The lowest estimate Is one-fourth OF the
crop or 100000. 1t may run much higher
than that.
Tybee Island. n seashore resort. WAS swept
by tho waves. Two-thirds of the dwellings,
and club houses on the Island were swept out
to sea or blown to pieces.
Tho Tybec Railroad was damaged to the
extent Of $4,000. The Charleston and Savan-
nah Railroads condition is unknown. Travel
has been suspended since Sunday night.
There Is no reason to reduce the first esti-
mate of tho loss in Savannah and the section
within twenty-five miles OF 1t rs one million
dollars

| United States naval stores are kept They
were building large dry dock. Only two Of
these were white men. one a mechanic en-
physician of the island.
Other white people on the island had most
miraculous escapes. The water swept over
the entire island and carried almost every
thing away For hours 1t was between fifteen
and twenty feet deep. with wind blowing a
gale
The people OF Beaufort and Port Royal were
apprehensive In regard to the fate OF st.
Helena. a small island four miles from Beau
fort. as they were unable to hear single word
from there. Mr. Averill says that Just as he
left Port Royal reports OF several fatalities on
the island were received.
Several prominent citizens were killed.
There were twenty-five lives lost between
Port Royal and Seabrook. small station only
four miles from tho harbor. All were negroes
who were plantation hands. One negro family
Of seven were lost and several other families
were wiped out Three strangers were
drowned. one In Beaufort, two in Port Royal.
Their bodies were recovered. but not iden-
titled
Houses were blown down and carried in
every direction. Only mengre reports have
been received from other points near Beau
fort. 1t Is feared many more lives have boon
lost. largo steam pile driver owned by Capt.
Kramer OF Charleston was carried up the
Coosaw Rivor 500 yards and land cd In a marsh.
All the dredgcs Of tho Coosaw Mining Com
pnny were washed ashore and most of them
were injured. The steamer Pilot Boy OF
Charleston. which was tied to the Waterhouse
docks. was swept away. carrying along large
part OF the dock. The steamer was followed
by three tuRs-Juno. Weymouth. and Alliance
and all four boats were swept up on tho
bluff and left thcre high and dry.
Three pilot boats were swept into tho marsh
800 yards from the channoL Two were totally
wrecked. The Alma Cumming q largo boat
loading at the Sea Island chemical works. was
swept from its moorings and badly injured.
The pilot boat Palmetto. tied UP at the Port
Royal docks. was blown to pieces and sunk
few yards from her moorings. The Coosaw
Mining Company estimate their loss at
$4,000. Every house in Port Royal and Beau
fort was damaged.
Port Royal is village situated on an island
four miles south OF Beaufort, and near Port
Royal entrance. 1t is thirty miles north of
Savannah.
Although 1t is the eastern terminus OF the
Central Railroad OF Georgia. and is a seaport.
with good harbor it had but very limited
population. being credited By the last census
with only 524.
II the loss Of life there is as great as is indi.
Gated by the dispatches. the village must
have been almost swept away.
