distorted, q mass of wrecksge.
The water In the swept section was
from l3 to Is feet deep. No building
could hold its parts together with the
wind raging at Q rate of 100 miles per
hour.
Those who passed through the ssor m

deafeninR crashing Of buildings and
the mighty voice OF the wind drowned
the rush of the devouring waves.
Moments Of lull would come, and
then piercing ard heart rendir g
screams OF women and children could
be heard from all directions.
Dead, dead, everywhere; up ore
street and down another, into the hiG-
den recesses entangled with debris, ON
down to the waters edge, and then f. r
out on the bosom of the guilt tossed Il e
victims of the previous night.
GALVESTON, Sept. 13.-One of the
most pitisble sights of the aftermath is

Thirty ships of all sizes and
