COAST SWEPT CLEAN
The Worst of the Damage Not Yet
Told,

NEW YORK, Oct 1.-THE great
storm of SO has not been relegated to
the annals of the past and the story
has not half been told No one has so
far been able to estimate the damage
wrought by the wind and ethe. waves,
nor to say how far reaching was the
fury of the gale. But as far as the
eye can see from any point along the
shores of Long Island, along the Jer-
sey coast over the lew lands and in
some instances over the highland,
wherever one may turn, there are evil
dences that hurricane has been pass
ing through this section of the country
1t was the tail Of storm that came
from the midas, broad and destructive,
lifted the seas to a giant height and
forced in the waters with a sweep that
carried them high over the land to be-
gin the work the wind and rain would
finish.
For two days and night the gale
blew with increasing fury, and today
there was a steady down pour of rain
to complete the miserablef devastation
already we'll done. Thousands have
spent the day at the beaches AT
Brighton Beach and at Manhattan; at
Edgemere, at Far Rockaway and at
dozen other points along the sea line,
the incoming waters swept under the
very foundations of the buildings. One
wick at Sea Isle City, the finest strucr-
ure Of it's kind in that Section The
reports that have alreadyJcome in are
to the effect that In some sections,
whole districts on the3roast were swept
clean of the frame buildings Jersey
City was, in places, practically mum
dated The railroads In that section Of
New Jersey were sufferers to the ex-
tent of srspendingee business for a
period and many towns In that state
were cut off.
Householders at Asburys- Park and
Long Branch gathered to see the fury
of the sea and stood amazed and terror
stricken at the wonders Of the waves.
But Coney island was the great suffer.
Seidlitz hall at Brighton is totally de-
stroyed. 1t Is believed that several
hundred thousand dollars would not
cover the value Of the places destroyed
Yesterday the tide was higher than
anybody RENE mbered 1t to be, but early
this morning, long before silnrise, it
had reached maximum still higher
than at the previous flood 1t only
needed this to complete the devastation
along the beaches The seas swept over
the adjoining districts hundreds of feet
beyond what long ago had been fixed
as the line Of safety. AS a result.
dwellings were flooded and today some
of them are not yet safe from collapse.
Two of the steamers Of the Ocean
Steamship company, the Necoohee and
Cate City, arrived from Savannah to-
night after a terrible experience of
five days Of gales AMI hurricanes
Tor hours the vessels barely made any
progress against the terrific seas and
strong gale which ragged with hurri-
cane force. The Gate City fell in with

Clever Operators Rum to Earth at
Indianapolis.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 13-This after
noon, the local detectives, assisted BY Chief
OF Detectives Hager, of Louisville succeeded
IN locating in this city the Headquarters OF

Inc scheme Is not a new one but the detec-

was known as the directory scheme There
were agents to canvass all of the leading cities
each representing that he was business agent
for directory of national circulation The
victim took out an advertisement, for which
ne secured no return, no such directory ever
being issued. Not only this but he signed
a receipt which was sent to the clerk Of
courts and doctored up until 1t turned out
to be another valid contract and was col
lected on later, and so on.
The concern also Is known to have dealt in
fake watches, and went by a dozen different
names, such as The Rose Publishing com
pany and Mercantile Publishing COMPANY.
The arrest Of one of the agents in Louis
vile led to the discovery Of headquarters at
S712 East Washington street in this CITY. An
paratus Of all kinds for raising and chang
ing contracts, printing bogus circulars etc.
was found. The police are searching for

TALL GOLD STORIES.
Brought by Returning Miners From
the Yukon.

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 13.-Chris Harring-
ton, one of the large party of Yukon miners
who recently arrived. left this city last night
for San Francisco. Harrington is one Of the
lucky ones, and, according to some Of his
friends here he carried with him $4,000 in
gold that he dug out on the Yukon He has
claim up there that is yet worth a good
$780, 600.
A returned Seattle man says that johnny,
Miller, as he is called, a miner widely known
on the river, came out with 200 ounces or
$40, 200 of gold, which he secured the past
year, that representing all profit. Miller

them 81 an hour. He took the Bertha for
San Francisco.
The Seattle mentioned above has an excel
lent claim, and it Is now being worked dur
ing his absence. He says it pays $61 to the
man per day.
AS an incident OF the way money goes on the
Yukon, this miner stated that on the day they
left there $14, 600 was paid to the company for
tickets alone. That was on Sept. s. The men
who came out on that day brought from $500
to SIS, 600 to the man.
Yet said this miner, in telling of the
above incidents; cit is not all gold and glitter
on the Yukon, and that is just why / do not

adrift without food or water for nine
days. Their condition when rescued
was a most pitiable one, and so. faint

to- tie lines to them and haul their

ship. The particulars of the terrible
suffering of the men are meager, as
they are still too, weak to go into de-
tails.
The Lovise. in command of Capt. An
derson, left Mobile Aug IL for Rosario,
with full cargo of lumber. She ex-
perienced the September hurricanes
and was badly disabled Her condi-
ton became so bad that all hands had
tosleaye her in two small boats. and
until the Evelyn hove in sight they
had not seen a vessel for nine days.
Under treatment received since on
board the Evelyn, the unfortunate men
are recovering Slowly.

Finally, the condition. of the vessel be-
came such that the crew could no
longer remain on hers SO they put off
in the remaining two small boats
hardly dreaming that they would ever
see land again. Their struggle was a
desperate one. Days of anxiety and
suffering soon told on the unfortunate
men, three of whom, lost their minds
They raved and finally sank in abso-

hove in sight these poor fellows lay
helpless in the bottom Of the boat They
were too weak to realize that their
rescue had been effected.
Capt. Horner did everything possible
for the suffering sailors, and there is
now hope of their recovery.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-Archbishop
Ireland arrived here tonight from St.

to the criticisms Of his public advocacy
of McKinley's cause. saying that there

Catholic university and will be present
at the meeting Of the directors to be
held on the 21st, to select the successor
to Bishop Keane, whom the pope de-
posed as rector Of the university.

safety in their work. Included in the plumber
taken were three pairs of trousers, a coat,
vest gold watch and other jewelry and a
quantity of ladies' clothing
The robbery was discovered when the
parents awoke, as they did after seeming
effort. Mrs. Lang is certain she heard the
baby crying, but was seemingly powerless
from the effects of a drug. She was quite
indisposed yesterday and showed nauseating
symptoms. Her husband appeared to be quite
well and thought he had probably been given
drug, but not in so large a quantity.
