NORWICH DIDN'T SUFFER
GREATLY FROM STORM.
Washout at oceum on Trolley Line
Some Anxiety as to the Dams Along
the Streams.


The storm of Friday was one of UNI
usual severity the rain coming in tor.
tents while late In the afternoon it was
accompanied by a high wind which
threatened to do much damage but 1t
was not learned that much damage
was done In this vicinity although
many tree limbs scattered about show
that it had its effect.
The rain amounted to two inches or
more having measured 1.56 In the mid
die OF the afternoon. FairView reser-
voir gained three inches by noon be-
ing 80 inches below highwater mark
and a gain Of several more Will re-
suit before the full benefit is received.
The Shetucket river was high and
thre was strong current. In the Yam
tic It was UP under the Chelsea Boat
CLUB. Many took occasion q have a
look at the Greeneville dam which is
shedding quantities of water and maxi
ing a pretty sight. Owners of dams
along the river have been giving them
attention and there has been some
anxiety over the large volume of wa
ter coming down stream. At the I'm
cas- Power dam it was found that they
were taking care Of it alright and the
same was reported at Baltic though
there is big body Of water back Of
both of them. The usual watchers
were at the Greeneville dam at high
water and the mills along the stream
were obliged to give up the water of
their water wheels because of back
water. This was so at the Hubbard
Paper mill and the Bleachery.
Inc wires were well blown about
by the storm and in some sections the
electric lights were out for a portion
OF the evening. After eight o'clock
! however the rain stopped and the
wind died out making a peaceful night
IN contrast with the aftrnoon.
Washout at Occun.
Friday nights heavy rain caused a
Washout on the trolley line at Occum
hill about o'clock, the rails and ties
being quilted clear for a distance OF
several hundred feet, and passengers
| had to be transferred around that
point all the evening. This made the
schedule to the north about half an
! hour late before the night was through

One of the worst wind and rain
storms of years passed over New
London Friday, seriously interfering
! with traffic on the ricer. The ferry
