WEDNESDAY EVENING DEC 6. 1899
Thc shin ofthe INnture.

A ship TO be 1000 feet in length, 50
feet wide and 20 feet deep, of $4,000
tons displacement, with speed OF 30
miles per hour, is coming unless Darius
DAWSON, the naval and marine archi-
1cct, is mistaken. Mr.. Dawson is well
known among the naval and marine
co.'s ructors OF this 20 niry, having
been identified with the business for
many years. He made plans for rams
aud other boats for the government
durng the war, and many of his ideas
in the connection of fast steam vessels
have been successfully adopted. Mr..
Dawson is now working upon The
=, lans for the 1000-foot vessel, which Is
TO be built in this country.
He says that the essential feature OF
the new vessel, as to shape of her huh,
has been incorporated 10 admitted e2-
tent in the Lucania and Campanis.
This feature is the long, tapering stern,
running out behind the vessel like Il e
tail of a fish. 1t was still further ap-
piled in the building ofthe new L. 5.
w,rship Columbia. Mr.. Dawson attrib.
utes the Columbia's high speed and
that of the Campaaia and Luc mia to
the tapering stern That will be one ot
the main novel features about his l00C
foot ship. Although she will be 1850
feet in length on the water line, she will only
bc 700 feet in length on the deck. This Is
because she is to have projecting bow and
projecting stern each $50 feet long. This Is
in direct contradiction 10 all the existing
steamers, which are longer on the deck than
on the water line.
The tapering stern Mr.. Dawson says,
allows the water TO close i'll easily after the
passage OF the main body, aud the vessel
makes no drag or suction after her passage.
which would be merely pull on her strength
aad hold her back. The extended ends serve
Tor bu0yancy aud divert AMI dispeIse the
solid impact and persuasive force of heavy
seas from the main body Of the vessel. The
az ran of the vessel by this method resem-
lies exactly the tail Of a fish, easily closing
tic channel already cut so clearly forward.
III ship is to have four nropellers 50 placed
in deep solid wa c. rs rot rCe rr inteif. 7,
with each other, two being on each side OF
III, keel The engines to drive them are I"
it..5O,00O horSc-p power. Mr., Dawson would
net say where the leviathian is TO be built OF
who are backing the scheme. But he assert.
I'd confidently that such ship is coming and
hat she will make the Atlantic passage i'll

TERRIFIC AT PENSACOLA.
Two Buildings Blown From a Wharf
Into the Bay.

Pensacola, Fla, Oct. 3.-The most de-
structive storm that Pensacola has ex-
perienced in twenty years began at
o'clock yesterday morning and ragged with
increased fury until late yesterday even
ing. The nearest approach to yesterdays
gale was the storm of 1881 The storm
had been brewing since Saturday Hard
rains fell Saturday afternoon and Sun
day, but a storm of such great intensity
was not expected by any one. At a. IN.
yesterday the wind freshened and the
rain increased. By5 a. m. terrific south
east gale was blowing, which continued
at the rate of fifty miles an hour until
noon, when the wind shifted to the south
and increased to sixty miles.
Between 2 and 3 p. m, it began
to shift to the southwest and at 2 AS D. m.
the storm had reached its climax, the
wind at this time having reached a veloc-
ity of 66 miles an hour. The rain fell in
torrents and was swept in binding sheets
through the streets. AT the Bay front
people stood in drenching rain, watch
ing the mighty elements in their work of
destruction. No loss of life has been re-
ported, but upon every street uprooted
trees, broken fences and roofiess build
ings testify to the storms force.
BUILDINGS BLOWN INTO THE BAY.
Ou Day SUEteb WudIl d IdiEt DuuuluB
used by Warren & Co. for smoking fish
was blown into the bay. 1t was stored
with cured fish, and their loss will be
great. On the same wharf dwelling
with its contents was lifted from its foun-
dation and dropped into the bay. The
greatest damage was on the bay.
The Portuguese bark Josephine and the
Norwegian bark Wilhelmina were blown
on the beach. One of the vessels is in a
dangerous position, but it is thought that
both can be floated.
The fishing smack Isabella is also on
the beach. Before the storm reached it's
height several steamships that were
taking on cargo, raised fsteam and ran
down to the lower bay, where they had
plenty of sea room. Every stick Of tim
Der in the bay was cast adrift and is now
strewn along the beach for miles.
Railroad communication is cut off. The
mail train on the Pensacola and Atlantic
road, which left here for Jacksonville
yesterday morning at 80 o'clock, could
not goifarther than Bohemia, on the bay
shore, and was compelled to return. The
l :35 p. m. train on the Louisville and
Nashville road also encountered wash
outs and was compelled to return to the
city. The only traing, reachiu the city
during the day was from the north at 4 :35
o'clock a. m.
All telegraphic communication was cut
of before 10 O'Clock yesterday, the wires
being down in every direction, and no
news of the storm could be sent out last
night

picious. DR.. DeSaussure arrived here
this morning and went direct to Wares

picious cases there. DR.. DeSaussure re-
turned here this afternoon and after in
spection pronounced the city all right and

A telegram was received here from Sa-
vannah late this afternoon inquiring
about suspicious death at this place
which was reported there to-day. There

the case he pronounced his ailment mala-
