HURRICANE.
Sweeps the Atlantic Seaboard Doing
 Great Damage.

NEW YORK, Oct 13.-A veritable hurricane has swept over this section of the country today. The tides rose to a height of many feet higher than has been seen for many years, and the waves all along the Atlantic coast swept in with a force that carried everything before them and did dam age to the amount of many hundreds of thousands of dollars. Sandy Hook and points along the Jersey coast felt the fury of the storm most of all. But Coney Island experienced, so far as has been learned, most direful results. The beaches were swept clean and pavil- ions were overturned and carried sea- ward; bathing houses and board walks and everything not far inland on the famous island were torn up and piled high beyond the coast line or carried out to sea,

M'KINLEY ON TARIFF.
It Is One of the Most Important Acts
 for the People to Perform.

CANTON, Oct. 13.-In the course of his address to the Monongahela, Pa., delegation Mr. Mckinley said: "I do not know of anything that will pre- serve the credit and honor of the gov- ernment better than protection, for it is proud fact in American history that in all years, at least for the most part, under which we have had pro- tective tariff, we have always had am pie revenues to conduct the expenses of the government. Now that policy wisely and judiciously applied in pub lie law, is one of the first and most important acts for the people to per form. They cannot perform it, how ever, without a Republican congress and Republican president

these two propositions: First, that Wisconsin will give Mckinley 75,OOO majority; second, that Mckinley will receive 250 electoral votes" Con Hull of Iowa writes: "The silverites are more active in Iowa than they have been since the cam paign opened. I cannot imagine wha; they base their hopes of success on, bu, they are evidently trying to make
 some headway here. So far as the farmers are concerned, am satisfied they are all right. Our state commit
 tee thinks Mckinley will go over
 50,0O0, and maybe make it 75,000.
 If other states will do as we'll as Iowa,
 I am very certain Mckinley will be elected by an overwhelming majority. ,"

THE CASTLE CASE.
The Accused Shoplifters Arraigned and
 Remanded Back to Jail.

LONDON, Oct 13.-A& the Marlbor- ough street police court today MT. and Mrs. Walter M. Castle of San Fran cisco, arrested at Hotel Cecil Tuesday last charged with stealing a quantity of flrs, etc., from various dealers of this city, were arraigned on remand and after short hearing were again rernanded for week, bail being al lowed in the sum of $150,000.
 MT. Castle walked calmly to the dock and a moment later Mrs. Castle was led in by two police.een. She was stylishly dressed in dark brown with a blue cloth cape, having the collar of the cape turned up to partially hide her face. She sobbed violently, and while in the dock her face was buried in her handkerchief. She became hys- terical when the first witness was called and the police brought a bench | upon which both prisoners were al lowed to sit together. MT. Castle put his arm around his wife, supporting her any trying ito pacify her.
 | MT. Avery prosecuted, for the treas ury. He detailed the circumstances of l United States embassy had informed him that the Castles bore high repu- tation in San Francisco He said this was not a case of wealthy purchasers ordering goods for which they did not intend to pay, but was a plain case ot ordinary shoplifting.
 Avery read the following list of ar ticles found among the prisoners eff. fleets, said to have been stolen Eighteen tortoise shell combs, sever hand mirrors, two sable boas, two muffs, two neckties, seven gold watch es, nine clocks, seventeen valuable fans, sixteen brooches, seven tortoise shell eyeglasses, two plated toast rack. marked Hotel Cecil" and a large number of smaller articles.

Expedition Going to Ec-
 uadOr.
New York MilIiOnaireS Going to
 Get 1t Out.
Secured More Than a HunGred Claims in That Country and
 Look for Bonanza.

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-The money of New York millionaires will, M possible, make bonanza out of an in- dustrial enterprise that the easy going Spaniards gave up in despair 300 years ago: that speculative Brftons tried to revive with insufficient capital and ig- nominiously failed.
 1t is to dig gold out of the wild, mountainous regions of Ecuador.
 Within two years several competent engineers have been sent there Ito ind out whether the game was worth the candle.
 They invariably reported that there was plenty of gold, but it would cost millions to get it. t
 The latest engineering party to visit this region returned on a Pacific Mail steamer last Thursday. It was headed by William Van Slooten, a mining en- gineer. He has made two trips there. After he returned from the first trip, the South American Developing com pany was incorporated in West Vir- ginia, about six months ago.
 The party of engineers of which MT. Van Slooten was chief was sent out by one of the strongest Financial combina- tions ever organized to go into the min 1 ing business.
 It included Mrs. w. H. Vanderbilt's nephew, w. A. Nissan, who, it is un- derstood, represented the Vanderbilt | interest; a nephew of John G. Heck sher, who was understood to represent his uncle, a rich iron manufacturer in Philadelphia; w. E. Newberry, son of the late scientist and geologist of Co., lumbia college, and James B. Lowell, grandson of James Russell Lowell.
 When reporter asked for informa- tion about the incorporators yesterday, MT. Van Slooten said
 ''It is none of my business to reveal the names of my principals. eTIhis is a private enterprise. There is no stock for sale, and we are not anxious to talk tllrough the newspapers.'
 Did you find gold in Eeuador?'
 An abundance of it The veins there are far richer than they are in the South African gold fields"
 The men interested in the South secured more than 100 claims in Ecua- dor, each claim being 6O0x15OO feet, or fraction more than twenty-one acres They have already established a plant, and have. so their engineers report, secured greater results than were expected.
 With a Liberal expenditure of capital they expect to reap profits that will
 make the Transvaal results look in. , significant.

ATLANTA, Ga., Odt. 13.-A special to The Journal from Thompson, Ga, says: Thomas D. Watson is still con- fined to his room acting under the ad- vice of his physician, who informed The Journal correspondent this morn ing that while MT.

Clark is very properly keeping dark his operations of his wonderful mine. He is said to have subscribed $300,000 to the Bryan cam paign fund. Probably he has, and the only strange thing about it is that he has not subscribed more. He could well afford two or three millions. The election of Bryan will mean at least a dozen millions more Ito him, and probably scores of millions. He ought to subscribe more
 Should Bryan be elected, and then should free coinage act be passed, two visions that are becoming more and more beautifully hay. MT. Clark will make the silver fairly flow from the United Verde. He will ship out silver bullion almost as he does copper today. He has blocks of silver laid out that are solid ore, larger than the biggest business block in Los Angeles. This he will put his miners on; he will put in operation the plant that he has been preparing with a view to such a process, and a hundred millions or so of silver will be turned in on the hints of the United States.
 ''nhe estimate has been made that silver can be produced here for 12 cents an ounce"
