DAMAGE AT NEW ORLEANS
Portion Of the City Inundated and SOIKe
Wrecks RepOrted.


Wrecks Reported.
New Orleans, Aug. 16.-The storm
which developed here Wednesday after
noon continued throughout the night,
and a heavy wind was still blowing
yesterday morning. The wind and rain
was general along the coast and many
trains belated.
Reports from Mississippi Sound indi-
cate considerable damage done to small
bridges, bathing piers and wharves
Some small boats were damaged, but no
lives reported lost.
Wires running to Port Eads are still
down and communication with that sta
ton is difficult. The backing up of the
water in the river caused the overflow
Of much lands lying along its banks
around and below the fort. Much Of
the rear sections of New Orleans are
under water. A number Of man ufac.
tories have been invaded and tempora-
rily shut out of business. There il Q
foot of water in many homes. Scows
were brought into requisition to enable
people to get from their homes to high
or portions of the city. A hard and
steady wind backed up Lake Pontchar-
train into the old and new canals and
both of these overlooked their banks for
. considerable distance.
Hundreds of the business men Of New
Orleans live along the gulf coast during
the summer and thus far have been I'M
able to reach the city.
Reports from Milneburg says the big
excursion steamer New Camelle, lying
at the wharf there, was capsized and 10
pounding heavily against the pier. No
report of the loss of life by her sinking
has been received. The tugboat Nep-
tune is also reported capsized.
Much apprehension is felt in the city
Of extensive damage to rice by the
storm, though the prostration Of tele-
graph and telephone lines makes it diff
ficult to obtain accurate information.
Reports from the rear of the city say
an area Of about two miles in extent
thickly populated is flooded to the
depth of two feet and there is much
suffering among poorer classes in con.
sequence. =
Local Forecast Officer Cline gave QUE
the following yesterday morning:
Hurricane signals along Louisiana
and Eastern Texas coasts Storm OF
Louisiana coast undoubtedly Of great
intensity, moving northwest and will
strike the coast between the mouth Of
the Mississippi and Galveston, causing
hurricane winds from an earterly direo-
ton on the Louisiana coast and north
erly on the Texas coast"
No advices have been received from
Grand Isle and Cheniere Caminada.
Many Louisiana people spending the
summer at Grand Isle which IL ada
cent to Oheniere, are reported lost.
Over 1000 lives lost at Cheniere when
that neck Of land was swept by q
storm few years ago.
The Mississippi river In front Of this
city is like miniature gulf and many
harbor crafts have had to hug the shore
in order to avoid being swamped.
The regular westbound Texas and
Pacific trains could not be sent out be-
cause the transfer boats which carry
the trains from this side to the other
side Of the river were unable to make
their landings.
All tugs in the harbor were engaged
in trying 70 save the fleet of about 400
boats lying above the city. Between
six and ten boats have already been lost.

Unclaimed

Nearly every bank of old establish
ment has on deposit sums Of unclaimed
money. The aggregate Of all these
sums, if it could be told. would aston
ish the world. These moneys in the
Bank Of England are estimated vari-
ously, some placing the aggregate
amount at less than 100000 and some
at many times that sum. In the Bank
of England, as in all banks in this
country and in England. the total
amount is made up of small sums. Ac-
:cording to law, the Bank of England
should give public access to the list of
such lost moneys, whereas it never does
anything of the sort. When challenged,
1t invites legal action. but no one cares
for a legal contest with the Bank of
England, SO the question never is faced.
How do these unclaimed moneys ac-
cumulate? Largely through the omis-
sion Of stockholders to claim dividends
and through the fact that many people
die without leaving behind them a
strict account of their investments.

COTTON EXCHANGE TO ACT.
Members Want n General Meeting to
Consider Cotton Shipment Delays.

Members Want n General Meeting to
Consider Cotton Shipment Delays.
With a view 20 obtaining remedial
action by the proper authorities the
members of the Savannah Cotton Ex-
change yesterday circulated a petition
which was freely signed, asking Pres
ident Shearson TO call a general meet
ing, and TO invite the officers of the
compress company and the railroads
to be present The complaint about
DELAYS in the movement of cotton des-
tined to the port is such that some
thing may have to be done at once to
straighten things out.
The object of the meeting II is deslr-
ed for the President of the Exchange
to call, is to find out where the trou-
BILE is, and to do whatever is possible
TO facilitate the movement. One firm
complained yesterday of the hardness
in the arrival of sea island cotton con-
signed to it. Others are dissatisfied
with the way cotton is being brought
TO Savannah, their objection being the
slowness of the movement Whether
the fault lies with the compress, the
railroads, or both, is a question, but
conditions are considered such as to
call for decisive action by the Cotton
Exchange.
"Of course we have our ideas as to
the sources of this check in the move
ment," said one man, but it is not
proper to say anything in advance OF
the meeting. l have had talks with
many members of the Exchange since
the request for a general meeting was
circulated, and they think il the prop
er course to pursue. A faulty cotton
movement is too serious a matter for
the port and the city to stand without
efforts to correct IL"

Kirk, one of the wealthiest planters
in the state, and the founder of the
pleasant village of Bluffton, which he
settled as his summer home. and was

was a graduate of the Charleston Cit
adel Academy and also of the Univer-
sity of Virginia, and was typical gen.
tleman of the old school, well educated,
courteous and brave. He was 20 years
of age.

The jury which returned the verdict
that caused so much surprise and talk,
was in the court room with the other

Rev. Bascom Anthony, who followed
the case from start to finish, express
