TERRIFIC HURRICANE.
Big Wave Sweeps Florida and
Cubs-3oo Lives Believed to have
been Lost-$2, 100000 Loss to
Shipping.

The telegraph records most fearful
storm sweeping the southern coast of
the United States on Thursday last.
The details are filled with horror, more
than three hundred lives being lost by
a great tidal wave, which swept over
Elliotts Key, small island off the Flor
ida coast, 25 miles south of Miami on
the line of the construction work on the
road.
The dispatches say the steamer st.
Lucie, which was sunk had 1876 persons
aboard, most of them laborers on the
railroad. The same wave that enveloped
Elliott's Key, where the st. Lucie was
lying, crushed the steamer. Twenty
five of the persons aboard were killed
or drowned.
One of the railroad building boats, used
as sleeping quarters for laboreis, which
was stationed at Long Key, between here
and Key West, went adrift with 2lO men
on board. 1t was blown into the Gulf of
Mexico and wrecked.
All who were not drowned chung to
the wreckage and the changing wind
blew them eastward to point fifty miles
east of Key West. There were forty-one
men clinging to one piece of wreckage
when the Spanish tramp steamer Jennie
sighted it and rescued them, landing
them at Key West
Further dispatches say the hurricane
was accompanied by terrific downpour
of rain which swept over the city and
harbor of Havana and the provinces
of Havana end Pinar del Rio, western
Cuba, on Wednesday and Thursday,
resulting in the loss of twenty lives and
the destruction of 100000 worth of
property, and came near causing the
United States to lose the armored
cruiser Brooklyn, famous as the flag
ship of Commodore Schley in the battle
with Cervera's fleet off the entrance to
Santiago Harbor.
The Brooklyn, with the other United
States warships lying in Havana har-
Dor, was hard pressed by the terrific
wind and the high sea. At the height
of the hurricane the big cruiser dragged
her anchors and went aground on the
mud off La Regia. For a time her posi-
ton was perilous, but by heroic work in
the engine room-the same kind of effort
that kept her at the head of the column
Of warships which pursued; sank or cap
tured Cerveras fleet she got off without
damage.
The cruiser Denver, the cruiser Mime
apolis, the battleship Texas, the auxiliary
cruiser Prairie and the supply ship Celtic
all dragged their anchors more or less,
but prompt seamanship averted collis-
ions.
The 1000 American soldiers and ma
rines at Camp Columbia were put to
great inconvenience by the storm. Near
ly all the 400 tents in camp were blown
down, but there was little actual dam
age.

Going Skyward.

The price of silver bullion is now 1913
cents per fine ounce, the highest price
reached since the repeal of the Sherman
law in 1893, when the government ceased
purchasing silver. The government is
now purchasing at the advanced rate for
coinage into subsidiary cous. The
causes that are operating to increase the
price of silver are the entrance of the
Mexican government into the money
market as heavy buyer for subsidiary
coinage and remarkable increase in the
exports of silver to India
