Storm at Atlantic City.

ATLANTIC CITY, Oo1 13.-The oity was cut off from the outside world last night, both the Reading and Pennsylvania rail road companies posting notices that trains could not be run in or out of the oity be- cause of the damage done to the roadbeds. The high tide washed away the roadbeds in many places. Charles Mason and his family were driven out of their home on the meadows by the water inundating the first floor. The husband put his family in cart and pulled them to road con- neoting with this city and then transfer red them to a friends house. A similar case is reported from Chelsea, below this city, where Mir and Mrs. Whitaker were taken in boat from their home, on Hum mock square. The steamboat wharf, 500 feet in length, was washed away, and a frame building adjoining the i'll fated Casino, where the Elk disaster happened two years ago, was torn down by the waves, and two sections of the old boardwalk in Chelsea are gone.

The Georgia Election.

A TLANTA. Oct. 10.-Advices received by The Journal from combined official and unofficial sources fix the total Democratic majority at 36, 12e at the state election. This estimate is based upon the vote for Atkinson for governor, which is in many cases less than that cast for the other state officials. It Is not believed that the off, cial returns will materially alter this esti- mate. The legislature is almost solidly Democratic in both branches, insuring practically the unanimous election of ex- Speaker Crisp to the senate to succeed Senator Gordon. Two constitutional amendments were voted on, and both were carried overwhelmingly. One Is to pro- vide for the increase of the supreme court from three to six justices and to provide for their election by the people. The other is to make the state school commissioners elective.

Storm on Now England Coast.

BOSTON, Oct. 13.-The West India hur- rioane, which has swept the New England coast for the past 3S hours with almost unparalleled severity, completely tying up shipping, has subsided, and the worst has probably been experienced, while for the first time during the entire blow rain is falling The hurricane, while probably not severe others which have come up from the tropics at this time of the year. has nevertheless been heavy enough to kick up one of the ugliest seas ever seen along the New England coast or in Massa- chusetts bay, so that not vessel of any description has left port since late Satur- day afternoon. Every point along the coast from Newport to Eastport reports practically the same condition.
 The highest wind velocity In this city was 50 miles an hour. This Is the highest since Feb 6, at which time the wind blew 5S miles an hour from the southeast. At Block island, where the wind reached a maximum of so miles, one-sixth of an inch of rain had fallen.

POPUlISTS' MANIFESTO.
It Is Regarded as a Rebuke to Thomas F
 Watson.

CHICAGO, Oct 14.-The national com mittee of the Peoples Party has issued manifesto which, 1t is intimated, is in the nature of a rebuke to Thomas F. Watson who has insisted upon "the middle of the road" course. The manifesto says In part
 Your national committee indulged tn, hope that the patriotic action of the Peo ple's Party in national convention in subordinating the interests of party to tn, success of the vital issues involved in thls pampaign would be met by equally unselt ish devotion to a common interest on the part of the Democratic party, and that all the friends of silver could present solid front against the minlons of greed by sup. porting one ticket-the truly cooperative ticket, Bryan and Watson, But, this hope being disappointed, there were but two courses left one of which must be adopt ed: First, to run straight Bryan and Watson electoral ticket in every state which, on account of the failure of the Democratic party to support this ticket, would have effected the same result in this campaign that would have followed the nomination of a straight Populist tick. ct at St Louis-namely, the election oi Mckinley and the triumph of the gold standard
 The other course left open to your com. mlttce that was consistent with the action of the convention in nominating Mir. Bry- an was to do everything in its power to unite the voters of the country against Mckinley and to overcome the obstacles and endorsements which, if the Dem ocratio party had put the cause first and party second, we would not have encoun- tered
 This could only be accomplished by ar ranging for division of the electoral vote In every state possible, securing so many electors for Bryan and Watson and conced- Ing so many to Bryan and Sewall.
 At the opening of the campaign this, under the circumstances, seemed the wisest course for your committed, and 1t Is clearer today than ever that 1t was the only safe and wise course If our votes were to be cast and made effective for the relief of an oppressed and outraged people Fol lowing this policy, your committee has arranged electoral tickets in three fourths of the states and will do all in its power to make the same arrangement in all of tho states. By perfecting this arrangement every sincere opponent of the gold stand ard giving loyal support to these joint electoral tickets, the Peoples Party will not only secure in the electoral college for Bryan and Watson several times as many votes as we could have possibly secured by making a straight fight, but we will se- cure the defeat of Mckinley and the gold standard, which should now be the great est desire of every citizen who believes in the principles of true Democracy as taught by Jefferson and of true Republication as represented by Abraham Lincoln.

 NEW YORK, Oct 13.-A veritabls hur- ricane has swept over this section of the country. The wind blew with terrific force, reaching, at Sandy Hook, a velocity of 75 miles an hour. The tide rose to a height many feet greater than has been seen for years, and the waves all along the Atlantic coast swept in with force that carried everything before them and did damage to the amount of many hun dreds of thousands of dollars.
 Sandy Hook and points along the Jer- sey coast felt the fury of the storm most of all, but Coney Island experienced the most direful results The beaches were swept clean, pavilions were overturned and carried seaward, bathing houses, boardwalks and everything not far inland on the famous island was Sorn up and carried out on the raging waters
 At Brighton Beach the stonewalks in front of the big hotel were under water. and toward the end of the afternoon the famous Seidl Concert hall was inundated and partially carried away. The we'll kept lawns in front of the Oriental hotel and Mdnnattdn bedCn nOt6l were lalu waste and the lower portions of the hotels food ed. Innumerable smaller buildings were simply picked up bodily and carried away by wind or waves.
 At such place as Far Rockaway the fury of the gale is indesoribable Those houses which were built on sand were washed away, and those higher up, which for years have beep out of reach of the highest tides, were Hooded.
 The damage at Coney Island will reach fully $500, 900 and at Far Rookaway about $50, 900.
 Along the Jersey coast most of the dam age done was to piers and to break waters. Preparations had been made, as forewarn- ings of the storm had been given some days before. As yet very little damage to shipping has been reported, for, on account of warning, many craft delayed sailing, and others that had cleared returned for a fa
