STORM ON THE IAKEI
wild Wind and Waves Work TERRIBLE
Havoc


From all over the great lakes Wednes-
day came tales of wrecks, dangers and
narrow escapes in the terrific gale of Tues
day night The storm was defined by the
weather authorities as a cyclone. with its
center between Chicago and Grand Ha-
ven. Mich. Tales of numerous wrecks
and dangers came from all points in the
southern portion of Lake Michigan.
These reports not only told of vessels
wrecked and cargoes lost. but many re-
ports were made by captains who made
port in safety. telling of vessels in dis
tress sighted when the seas were so high
and the wind SO fierce as to make any at
tempt at rescue impossible. 1t will be
several days before all the dreadful story
of the storm can he learned.
SO far as Chicago is concerned. the
storm was the most disastrous of recent
years, not excepting the great gale of
May, 1894. Old tugmen say that the
waves were higher than at any time since
1889. when the lake shore road and part
of Lincoln Park were washed away. Lin
coin Park Commissioners estimate the
damage done by the storm at $4,000.
Fisk Hall, the large new building of the
Northwestern University, was for a time
in great danger of serious injury from the
high waves. The wall that was built out
into the lake to protect the building from
just such storms was washed away at
loss Of $4,000. The steamer ii. A. Tuttle.
laden with grain from Chicago, went down
off Michigan City, the crew being taken
off by life savers.
