IN PATH OF THE STORM.
The Dolphin and the Culgoa Must
Have Encountered the Hurricane

Two warships were In the path of the
hurricane which swept the Atlantic coast
of the United States YESTERDAY. These are
the dispatch boat Dolphin and the supply
ship Culgoa. The Dolphin left New York
Saturday for Key West. on her way to New
Orleans. whence she Is to take Secretary
Taft and party to the Isthmus of Panama
Proceeding under ordinary steam the Dol
phin must have encountered the gale some
where near Hatteras, which is one of the
worst places on the coast IN bad weather.
The officials of the Navy Department have
no doubt however, that the Dolphin rode
out the storm IN safety and Is now well
on her way TO Florida. Although she rolls
considerably In a sea way, the Dolphin is
stanch and seaworthy and Is manned by
competent officers and crew. She Is not
due at her destination for two three
DAYS. that no concern need be felt In
tae absence of information of her where
abouts in the meantime.
While the storm at It's height the

the schooner Wilson and Hunting. which
she ran down off Barnegat light last
Wednesday night. The Culgoa left New
York Friday. and was to have towed the
wreck. Ia case it found, into Delaware
breakwater. So far, however, nothing has
been heard from either the Culgoa or the
wreck and 1t is supposed that they have
been blown out OF their course. The Gull
goa is an excellent sea boat, and is said
to be equal TO any sort of q storm, so that
no apprehension is felt at the department
as To her safety.
