Na!uc OF property saved in this sec
iron by timely warnings given of the re-

total of 1856 vessels, from ocean steam
cfs to fishing sinacks, valued with their
careoes at $7,i00,000, We're probably de-
taiheu III port by the warnings during
the passage of these storms and IT Is
tair TO conclude from the OK perience of
those vessels that encountered them
that an immense saving in property
ana very probably In lives must have
thereby resulted.
