AT CHEVY CHASE.
Track of the Storm Marked by
Wrecked Buildings.

Almost the entire line Of the Chevy Chase
railroad from 18th ard U streets to Chevy
Chase and beyond. even to Kensington, is
marked by wrecks Of trees, windmills,
sheds and outhouses, &C., but the line was
opened this morning shortly after schedule
time and travel was not interrupted. All
the buildings along the route suffered more
or less damage, but so far as reported
this morning there were no casualties. The
small staten at the entrance to the Zoolog-
ical Park was completely gutted by the
wind, the refreshment cases and contents
being blown clear across the road. leav-
Ing standing only the skeleton frame of
the building. AT the country home Of Mr..
c. c. Lancaster, On the Pierce Mill road,
the storm did considerable damage, and
the inmates were badly frightened by
their threatened danger. The roof was
blown partly off and the tall windmill
blown down. and the wreck ratified against
the walls Of the cottage in a most omi-
nous manner. Most OF the families In the
vicinity remained up together all night,
being too frightened to separate and go to
bed. The conservatory and green houses
of Mr.. John Morgan, near the intersec-
ton of Grant road and Connecticut ave-
nue. exter ded, suffered severely by the
storm. the walls being blown over In places
and nearly all the glass broken. A car
rage shed near the dwelling was razed
to the ground and the parts scattered In
were two buggies In the building at the
time, and, singular to state, they were not
even scratched by the destruction raging
around them. Across the road at Fair
field the wind blew all the heavy wooden
chairs off the porch far down into the
garden and slammed and banged the shut
ters until there was hardly a sound pane Of
glass left in the house. The water tank
on the high tower just beside the house.
which is familiar sight to all travellers
on the Connecticut avenue extension, al
though filled to the brim with water, was
blown like a feather from Its high estate
and smashed into splinters against the
small cottage near the junction of Chapel
road. The roof of the cottage was broken
in and part Of the side wall carried away
There was similar destruction of trees,
plants. windmils and small detached build
ings at various other places further out
to Chevy Chase, and beyond the District
line. but no fatalities or serious accidents
to persons are reported. The village of
Chevy Chase sustained no serious damage,
although broken windows and uprooted
trees were common to nearly every dwell
ing place.
