HIGH WIND AND
HEAVY RAIN The
DAYS FEATURES
WIND ATTAINED A VELOCITY
AT ONE TIME OF SIXTY MILES,
BUT ONLY FOR A VERY SHORT
PERIOD.

High wind and heavy rain prevail
ed here yesterday, but there were
many persons exceedingly apprehen-
sive throughout the day lest the ele-
ments take on q more belligerent at
titude, and the reported gulf hurri-
cane curve over this way instead of
tearing through the northern gulf
over by the Texas coast.
The weather bureau showed that
the very highest velocity attained by
the wind in Pensacola was sixty
miles, but this was for but very
short period. Rain in torrents fea-
tured the afternoon especially, and
at 5 o'clock, the downpour- was the
heaviest of the day, the rain appear
ing to come down in binding sheets.
There was not the least damage re-
ported in the harbor, where shipping
casualties were looked for had the
hard weather have become any more
boisterous. Ships in the stream had
couple of anchors out to forestall
any such an occurrence, while those
at the wharves, exposed to the play
of the elements, took precautions to
guard against accident. The bay was
too rough for smaller craft during the
entire day, and all work in the harbor
of all kind was suspended. Not ves-
sci anchored in the stream worked,
and very few at the docks were TAX
ing cargo throughout the entire day.
The small craft which did venture
into the harbor toiled hard against
the rough water, and came back only
after quite a battle. No pleasure
boats were operated, although many
inquiries were made for excursion
steamers to Santa Rosa island, many
persons. desiring to see the great surf
which was reported rolling especially
during the afternoon. Had one Of
the larger excursion steamers have
made a trip to the island yesterday,
it is possible it would have been ac-
corded a heavy patronage.
Hundreds Of persons visited the
water front during the day and noted
that the water was some eight or ten
inches higher than usual. It was
stated last night there was higher
tide than usual, although not q rec
ord tide by any means.
No vessels went to sea yesterday
although there are several awaiting
more suspicious weather conditions.
The schooner Margaret Thomas ar
rived light from Penambuco, and re-
ported some heavy weather in the
gulf. Two fishing smacks also reach
ed port during the day, both of them
reporting some exceedingly heavy
weather on the gulf. The sea, how
ever, was with them, and they rornp-
ed to port in quick time.
Persons who knew of it were busy
specializing upon the probable loca-
ton of the Italian bark Flora, which
sailed about four days ago. The
skipper of this vessel announced
when he noted the displayed signals
that he wohld anchor his vessel In
side the bay until the hurricane could
be more definitely located. He chang
ed his mind, however, before the tug
turned his vessel loose and continued
to sea. His bark, the calcslations Of
water front people made out yester-
day, must have fell in line with the
hardest Of the gulf disturbance, and
some little anxiety is awaited regard
ing his experience.

White was appointed ambassador to Italy by President Roosevelt, and re- rnained at Rome for two years, when he was made ambassador to Trance. His service in aris continued until December 1909, when President Taft sent Myron T. Herrick to Paris as his successor.
 MT. White is g. severe critic of the diplomatic policy of the United States, by which new ambassadors and min isters are appointed at each change of the administration at Washington. As as case in point he recently discussed the recall of Ambassador Herrick, saying:
 t'In no way could our sympathy for France have been shown better than by his retention and in no way our indifference have been shown than by his recall I am not criticising the present administration. consider that President Wilson has done as much, or more. for the diplomatic ser vice, than any of his predecessors. MT Herrick himself remained longer than usual when change in parties occurs What am crfticising is the system which practically compe1s a quick change of ambassadors every time a new party gets into power. To recall MT. Herrick was against our interests and the interests of the French republic.
