TERMINALS HIT
BY HURRICANE
THREE MEN INJURED WHEN
CLYDE STEAMER LISTED,
KNOCKING OVER LUMBER.

The tail-end of the hurricane which
has been doing SO much damage in
this vicinity recently, struck Bruns-
wick yesterday afternoon shortly be-
fore 2 o'clock 1t seems tha: nc
gale blew with great velocity for just
a few minutes in the southern eul 0f
the city only, while other sectious fett
only a light blow.
At the A, B. & A. terminals the
wind blew with great velo ity for a
short time. The Clyde line steamer
Santiago, which was moored at the
terminals, was blown from her moor
ing, Tut no damage resulted. 1t seems
that the steamer caught the full effect
of The gale, and larpe ropes, four
or five inches in diameter, were part
ed.
The steamer listed somewhat, fall
ing eavily against the wharf, causing
"a large pile of lumber to overturn. A
number of colored laborers were at
work under the lumber pile, and when
it fell three or four of them were
caught, two being quite seriously in
jured. One negro had his leg brok-
en-, another's back was sprained, while
still another was more or less in
jured. DR.. J. A. Butts was summoned
and cared for the injured laborers.
Those who were on the dock at the
time claim that had the storm pre-
vailed for any length of time serious
damage might have resulted. The
top of box car was blown entirely
off and some other little damage was
done.

call:
Bring those boats back, they are
