MANY SHIPS DRIVEN ASHORE
Reports From All the Affected Dis
tricts Not In Yet, and 1t Il
Feared Loss of Life
May he Great.

Tallahassee, Aug. 5.-Reports brought
in by the relief train show that the ruin
wrought by Tuesdays storm has been I'M
derestimated. Carrabelle, a pretty sea-
coast village of 600 inhabitants, on the
gulf, is literally wiped off the face of the
earth. Not a house is left standing. The
people are camped out in the woods and
are suffering from lack of provisions.
Fifteen lumber vessels are high and
dry and greatly damaged, and many
fishing vessels were driven out to sea,
and much anxiety is felt for their crews.
All the wharfs were destroyed, together
with 100000 feet of lumber, $4,000
barrels of naval stores and other such
merchandise.
Two negro women and six children
were drowned, it is reported. though 1t
is feared that the total number will be
10 or IL when all reports are in
Much property was damaged at La
mark, St. Teresa Mcintyre Panacea
Springs and other points contiguous to
Carrabelle on the coast All through the
inland country much loss is reported
through damage to crops, buildings,
bridges, etc. 1t will be week yet be-
fore full reports can be obtained. Moth
ing has been heard from the steamboat
Crescent City, reported lost, nor has any
news come from Apalachcola.
Rumors of Several Drowned.
H. D. Rohrer of st. Marks is reported
to have been drowned, and there are ru-
mors that the loss Of life will reach II.
The water is five and six feet over the
lower floors Of all houses, and domestic
animals are mostly all drowned. 1t is
feared that on account of the condition
of the soil houses in the submerged dis
trict are badly wrecked. Several houses
have dropped from their foundations and
have been destroyed in the fall. Hun
dreds of trees have been blown across
the railroad tracks
The storm stricken district seems to
extend along the gulf coast from st.
Marks to Apalachicola. ST. Marks is
directly south of Tallahassee and not
over 20 miles distant Apalnchicola is
SO miles from Tallahassee in south
westerly direction and is reached by the
Carrabelle, Tallahassee and Georgia rail
road, running from Tallahassee to Car
rabelle. thence by the United States mail
