currents carrying debris of all kinds
down 20 the business sections, break
ing down fences, sweeping away trees
and filling cellars and first floors OF
dwelling houses and factories. Scores
Of families were held prisoners In their
homes until the waters receded. Fac
tories and business places were in
undated, and the loss TO business con-
Germs will amount TO more than $780,
900.
The greater part OF New Jersey, TO n
distance OF many miles from the coast,
was deluged. Large farms became
swamps, with buildings here and there
dotting the surface OF the water like
islands. AS in the storm OF three weeks

ferer. The damage there is estimated
at from $4,000 TO 100000 The storm
