MAY BE DAYS BEFORE

New Orleans, July 22-The full
toll of life and property exacted by
the hurricane which swept the west
ern gulf coast yesterday may be sew
eral DAYS In the counting. Levelling
telegraph wires and destroying other
means of communication with the
outside world, the hurricane swept
along the gulf bordering the shore
from points In Cameron parish, La,
to almost the southwestern extremity
of Texas.
AS far as can now be ascertained,
the storm vented its fiercest force
ubon the city OF Galveston. There
the practically impregnable sea wall
kept back the onrushing waters OF
the Gulf, sorced many feet high by
the driving northeast wind and send
ing their spray oyer the sea- guarding
battIements of the city. Reports re-
eeived from there indicate that the
loss of life is confined 10 the unfor-
turates caught in the gale on Tarpon
pier The property damage as trst
totaIed viii hardly exceed 100000.
That loss of life and property dam
age have been caused at other points
along the Texas coast and possibly
in Cameron parish, Louisiana, is the
belief now entertained. To the res
toration OF wire communication with
many places along the coast today
was followed by reassuring news, but
other points it was impossible to
touch with, and it is feared that Sc
rious results may have been expef-
fenced in the latter.
MANY LIVES LOST.
In Matagorda county, about sew
enty-five miles southwest Of Calves

Its intensity was diminished soon at
