STORM IN SAN FRANCISCO
HURRICANE. ALMOsT-SENDS VESSELS
FLYING AND DEMOL1SHES
BUILDINGS.

San Francisco, Feb 25.-one OF the heaviest SOUTH
west storms that has been experienced IN many
wears struck this city this morning. The wind Die"
forty-fve miles an hour in the city, while at Polnt
r7evae If reached a rate of sixty miles. Ships
jagged their anchors or broke their moorinss at
their docks a fishing boat was capsized, the tele-
phone and electric wires went down, and awnings
shade trees and fences were wrecked, and peoes-
TRANS were greatly inconvenienced.
Teegraphic communication with the outside world
was cut off. The full force Of the storm was felt
on the bay and the bar was so rough that vessels
were unable to leave port
North of the ferries craft of all sorts were tossed
about like eggshes The violent south wind stirred
the bay into a rolling, tempestuous sea, against
which anchors were almost futile. Swell after swell
pounded the vessels and sent them drifting IN dan
gerous proximity TO one another, drove them close
to the piers and to the islands and kept the tow
boats busily engaged in efforts to prevent disaster
The transport Solace, with nothing but 300 tons
of coal to keep her down. broke from her anchorage
and careered about the bay like a drunken sailor.
She drifted broadside until collision with the
government steamer Albatross seemed imminent,
but she veeered off in the nick Of time. The wind
and the swell caused her to drift heplessly sending
her finally toward the transport wharf In Folsom-st
The officers OF the service gathered on the pier,
fully expecting the Solace to crash into the wharf.
Fortunately the direction OF the swell carried the

The signal officers of the reservation say that at

were wrenched from their positions and after being
carried high in the air were landed yards away,
where they were afterward gathered up by the rain
soaked soldiers, who fought hard to save them The
majority of the tents simply collapsed under the
pressure of the wind.
In the residence portion of the city bordering on
the military reservation much damage was done 10

HURRY CALL SENT TO NIXON.
URGED TO COME HOME AND NIP A PLOT
MATCHED BY o. II. p. BELMONT
AND CUMMINGS.

Lewis Nixon. chairman of the Finance Com
mittee of Tammany Hall. whose spurs leader
are yet 10 be earned. has been appealed TO by
several would-be Congressman to come home
and put stop to the Vaccinations OF the Tam
many Congressman. Mr.. Nixon is now in Flor
ida, and has sent back an unsatisfactory reply
TO the requests made OF him.
The friends Of John w Keller former Chart
ties Commissioner. are trying to get him the
nomination in the district now represented by
o. II. p. Belmont. Mr.. Keller's friends say that
on account of the redistricting of the State 1t
is time for a deal all round and that some
of the more inefficient Tammany congressman
should give way to blood. Word reached
this city yesterday that Messrs. Belmont Cum
mngs. Creamer. Sulzer and other members of
the House representing metropolitan districts
are planning to pre-empt. as it WERE certain
new districts. without reference 10 the wishes
of Mr.. Nixon or any one else. 1t is alleged that
Congressman Amos ]. Cummings has arranged
with o. H. p. Belmont TO next fall in the
new With District. and allow Mr.. Belmont 10
run in the district now represented by Mr.. Cum
mings. II is further alleged that Sulzer and
Creamer have made some sort of a dicker de-
signed to keep them both in Tammany dis
trlcts Concerning Mr.. Belmont. 1t is said that
unless he moves 10 some new Democratic dis
trct next fall, he will be beaten. as the new
district lines make his resident district Repub-
lican.
senator Inn sullivan Is alleged to have sent
telegram TO Nixon urging him to take imme-
date action If he is going to stop Belmont and
cummings from carrying out their deal. Mr..
NlXohs reply was that ordinarily such matters
were decided by the people of the entire district
ihat Is the position that Mr.. Sullivan wants to
nave him take. but he wants him to take IT
good and hard" and do 1t at once. II is sus-
pected that Senator Sullivan has leanings tow
ara congress nomination for himself and IL
cummings ana Belmont arrange things that
Cummings runs in the new With IL may inter
iere with Tins" plans. The proposed new deal
is intended to prevent Perry Belmont from be-
next fall.

ing before the Senate" This resolution may not
be pressed. owing to the action Of the majority.
The adjournment Of the Senate for the day
was decided upon at the forenoon conference
of the Republican leaders. The announcement
or Representative Crump's death reached the
senate yesterday but withheld until to-
Gay. When the Republican Senators were IN
FORMED OF this fact they were only too willing 10
use the announcement to secure an adjourn
ment, and their Democratic colleagues were just
as willing that it should be so used. All Sena-
tors recognized the fact that the Senate is under
a somewhat serious tension, and all felt that
both time and temper might be saved by stop
ping for twentyfour hours for a general con-
ference and exchange of views over the sltua-
ton.
The Republican members of the Committee on
Privileges and Elections were in consultation IN
the afternoon over the resolution which II was
proposed to bring to the attention of the Senate
tomorrow through the committee. providing for
the suspension of the two South Carolina Sena-
tors. None of the Senators present at the con-
ference would consent to disclose the details OF
their proceedings but il was learned in gen
eral way that considerable doubt was expressed
by some of the members to the regularity or
the suggested proceeding, holding that the sus-
pension Of Senators, even by the Senate ITSELF
would be subject to criticism. The feeling was
general that the problem is a difficult and intri-
cate one, and the opinion was expressed that 1t
would be impossible to formulate a line of action
that could be put into execution at so early a
date tomorrow. Senators Burrows and For
aker were appointed a subcommittee TO consult
authorities and suggest a form Of proceeding
either in the way proposed or on other lines.

SHOT IN AN ARMORY; MAY DIE
TwENTY-SE REGIMENT MAN ACCI-
DENTALLY DISCHARGES RIS RIFLE.

Harold A. Green, clerk. of No. rs West
Sixty-1fth-st., a member of Company K, OF the
22d Regiment. was accidentally shot last night
in the armory of the regiment. The bullet
passed through the fleshy part OF the body
derneath the left armpit, and lodged just in
front of and very near the spinal column. Dr.
Brown, of the Roosevelt Hospital to which
Green was taken said that the wounded man
would probably die. If he lived, he would al
most certainly be paralyzed for life.
Company K had been at rife practice. AS the
members OF the company were going TO put
away their guns Charles F. Granstead, OF No.
as West sixty-1fth-st., explaining to one
of his companions, John Dean. of No. 442 West
Fifty-eighth-st, how easily he had made his
high score Behind them walked Green.
Look how easy that trigger works. Gran
stead said to Dean, it is alleged.
The trigger snapped, and a cartridge that
Granstead did not know was in the rife ex-
ploded. The rife pointed backward under
Granstead's arm. Green gave a cry and sank
TO the floor.
Granstead and Dean were locked up in the
West Sixty-eighth-st. police station.
