Beach Washed Away.
Ivy Associated Press,

NORFOLK. VA, Jan. 9-Confirma-
ton was received over the weather
bureau telegraph wires this afternoon
that stretch of beach 800 feet long
at Oregon Inlet. n. c., was literally
washed away during the storm of
TUESDAY. carrying with it ten tele-
graph lines and the cable running
to Hattefas station. From Is inches
TO three feet of water now covers
the former position of a smooth
stretch OF beach. Linemen ont re-
pairing the wires along the storm
swept North Carolina coast discoy-
cred and reported the peculiar ac-
cident. The location of the strip of
beach is Just where the cable lcaves
the land TO cross Oregon Inlet The
beach is said to have projected cane
Ike, into tho inlet and was only n
few inches at the highest point above
tidewatcr level
1t Is not believed that landslide
occurred, but that the offshore hurri-
cane forced the tide ont further than
usual and blew the sand off the
beach to the sea.
Men are now graphing to find the
lost cable and to ascertain II there
is any material change in the bot
tom formation OF the inlet. Reports
are to the effect that Tuesdays
storm was tho most severe that has
swept EIatteras in generation.
