Galveston. Texas, September l6-Thc
following report was received by the
weather bureau IN regard to the tropical
storm in the gulf at 3:1S o'clock this az

p. M: Tropical storm has apparently re-
curved over the Yucatan channel into the
gulf and is likely to move slowly into the
ward. Considered unsafe for vessels
bound across the gulf Garrison
This message simply confirms the opinion
Of the weather bureau officials that the
storm is in the gulf and 1t depends on
what direction 1t takes now where II will
strike, II 1t continues coming northward
as Indicated In the above dispatch to be
likely II will either strike the coast OF
Texas or Louisiana. The storm is now in
the gulf and the next reports are expected
from the observers Of the gulf coast
The barometer In Galveston at o'clock
this evening was 1914 having fallen from
$3.50 since u O'clock. and threatening
clouds are coming In from the gulf. The
wind continues northeast Mt the rate or
ten miles an hour. Observer Taylor says
that the direction Of the wind Is doubtless
Influenced by the hurricane, and as II
usually blows toward the storm center the
present wind would indicate the storm TO
be southeast Of Galveston. II Is Thought,
however, to be a long distance away.
The following advisory message was re.
ceiyed by the weather bureau at lo]C
o'clock tonight;

ia the belief that the storm Is stu In the

Is no way to locate the West India hurrl
