SCHOONER BURNHAM
HERE FIRST TIME
Principal Owner, William e.
Burnham, for Whom Yes
sci Is Named, Rides on
Last Lap of Her Trip.

The four masted schooner William
E. Durham, with the Bridgeporter
for whom she was named aboard, went
through the bridges late yesterday af-
ternooa to the Frank Miller Lumber
Co., on the last lap of her first trip
to Bridgeport.
The Burnhan, one of the largest ves-
sells that has ever gone through the
bridges, draws II 1-2 feet of water.
The main channel is dredged for 10
feet of water at low tide.
In tow of the tugs Robert McAIlister
Glenn, Captain Elmer Sherman, of the
Bridgeport Towing Co., the schooner
was moored to the wharf Of the Frank
Miller Lumber Co., just before dusk.
There was no difficulty in towing the
craft to her destination
The Burnham arrived here early in
the week, and anchored in the outer
basin waiting the departure of other
vessels at the Miller docks. Yester
day the Towing Company notified
William z. Burnhan, the principal
owner that the vessel was about to
dock.
He was driven to the waterfront in
his automobile and taken aboard the
McA1lister, which carried him out to
the vessel. He went aboard the
schooner as the two tugs hauled her
to the dock.
The w. E. Burnham was launched
in Rockland Me-, in 1909.

THREE STORMS
RAGING HARD
AT SAME Time
Shipping Endangered In
Many Places - Wind
Reaches Velocity of 70
Miles An Hour

New York, Jan. 3-Three storms of
extraordinary proportions, reported
this afternoon by the telegraph and
telephone companies, were causing
damage, while a special storm warn
ing posted all along the Atlantic sea-
board gave promise of additional trou-
BILE tonight. One of the storms was
in the northwest where it was said
communication was badly interrupted.
The second was in the middle west
with wires between Chicago and this
city down in many instances and in
others working badly, and the third
was a near hurricane with the center
north of Norfolk, Va
Shipping was in grave danger. The
great Atlantic fleet, gathering in
Hampton Roads preparatory to start
ing for the southern drill grounds, was
in a bad harbor for a heavy blow.
The chief alarm was that the little
torpedo boats and destroyerS might be
in danger, the battleshfps and cruisers
being table to care for themselves
Norfolk and vicinity was cut off en-
tireIy Unofficial wireless dispatches
said that a heavy wind-bt was blow
ing 20 miles an holTr-had backed the
water of Norfolk, Newport News and
vicinity. Many small craft such as
oyster boats had. been damaged but
it was not believed there had been
loss of life.
Nearly every governmental station
reported a low barometer and further
damage from the storm was feared.
