MUCH TROUBLE IN
STREET L|GH 7 ING.
DURING THE STORM
POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT
ED MANY SCENES OF TROUBLE
AFTER THE SEVERE WEATHER
OF TUESDAY NIGHT.

Policemen In all parts of the city
had some lighting troubles to report
following the storm of Tuesday
incandescent street light were dark,
according to the complaint book at
the police station yesterday. Poles
were reported afire in several places,
globes were broken, live wires down,
over which police stood guard until
the electric company could be notified,
and general disarrangement of the
street lighting and police patrol call
systems was the result of. the unus
ually heavy rain and high wind.
A pole was reported burning at
sos o'clock Tuesday night on Greg
DRY street, between Alcaniz and
Cevallos streets. At $50 o'clock the
scaffolding on the south side of the
San Carlos hotel was reported demol-
ished. At 9:10 o'clock pole was re-
ported afire at Perdido wharf,
Waterman there reporting the trou-
ble At 9:15 o'clock a live wire was
reported at the corner of Palafox and
Intendencia streets, and globe was
reported smashed on light near the
corner of Tarragona and Wright
streets. In all twenty-four street
electric lights were reported dark in
all sections of the city.
The police patrol and fire alarm
call system was disordered, and the
city electrician and his assistants were
busy all the forenoon yesterday look
ing after this trouble. Mr.. LeBaron,
the electrician, had an appointment
with the commissioners yesterday
morning which he was unable to keep,
because of urgent attention being
given the police and fire call systems.
Last evening, however, things were
working all right, and the street
lights We're illuminating their respec-
tive spheres in all sections of the
| city. 1t was said that Tuesday nights
troubles were more extensive than
had been experienced in the recent
past.

dawned was we'll up into the slip. She
was towed back to a former anchor
age a little later.
Possibly the incident which will
average up the most considerable
damage, was that when the Spanish
bark Juanito collided with the Nor
wegian bark Superior, the Spanish
vessel dragging her anchor and final
ly coming up with the Superior. The
former was loaded and almost ready
for sea, while the Juanito had lust
hauled into the stream the day be-
fore and had only a few thousand feet
of lumber in her hold. The Spanish
vessel was considerably damaged, and
some damage was sustained by the
Superior, the latter, however, not
suffering to the extent of DELAYING
her departure. The other vessel.
however, will have to have a lot Of
work done before she goes to sea.
Two vessels which were at auarar-
tine, the Danish barkentine Arken and
the Norwegian bark Dova Rio, rode
through the storm nicely, suffering
not the least. Both were towed over
to the city anchorage yesterday, the
Danish vessel berthing at the G., F.
& A. wharf later in the day.
The tugs Nellie and Dixie worked
practically all night, answering calls
for tugboat assistance, and these two
steamers were the ones which sue
ceeded in disengaging the Norwegian
and the Spanish banks, which gave
promise for the time being of really
doing a great deal of damage to one
another
A barge of the Trobuk Towboat
Company left her anchorage in the
stream, or broke loose from a vessel
where it had been moored, and the
last seen of it was when it went east
toward Milton. A tug was despatched
early yesterday to look for the
lighter, and report last night had Il
that the barge was being returned
safely to the city.

LITTLE DAMACE IS
SUFFERED BY THE
SHIPPING IN PORT
TWO VESSELS WHICH MIXED
WHEN THEY DRAGGED AN
CHORS, AND TWO SMACKS
WHICH COLLIDED, INJURED.

Considering the height of the wind
and the almost unpreparedness of the
shipping, very little damage, COM
paratively speaking, was sustained in
the harbor, although number of
vessels dragged anchors for some con-
siderable distance, and at least two
deep sea vessels were slightly dam
aged.
The smack Barcelona, as stated
herein yesterday, broke from her
moorings at Baylen wharf during the
height of the storm, and drifted over
to Palafox wharf striking and pound
ing the smack Dorothy. The BARGE
Iona, which was iced and ready for
the snapper banks, appeared to have
suffered the greatest, although the
Dorothy was damaged slightly.
The Norwegian bark Alphonse,
which was moored at Perdido wharf;
parted her forward lines and swung
around, going all the way and land
ing her opposite side to the wharf.
Captain Rosstad said yesterday that
the side of his vessel from the wharf
| had been painted and it was his in
tention to have the other side painted
| when he left the wharf, but the wind
| and waves and saved him the trouble
| and expense, and had not injured his
vessel in the least, although a con-
siderable portion of the wharf was
pulled up.

Vogesen and Rudolf Blumberg, which
were anchored in the bay, dragged
their anchors for some distance and

LET TER ARRIVES
FROM CAPTAIN WHO
SIGHTED SCHOONER
FISH COMPANY RE-
CEIvEs CONFIRMATION OF
WIRELESS REPORT OF THE
: DISTRESSED FISHING CREW.

Confirmatory of wireless message
which was received via Tampa, re-
porting the plight of the fishing
smack Ida S. Brooks, letter was re-
ceived by the Saunders Fish Com
pany yesterday from Captain Kramer,
of the British steamship Jose de Lar
rinaga, who had arrived at Calves
ton, and who wrote of the plight of
the smack named.
While a little more details were
contained in the letter, about the only
unreported feature of the fishing
crews predicament was the fact that
the position was given wrong, and
that, instead of southwest, the smack
was sighted and succored some 250
miles from Pensacola, to the south
east. This places the vessel about
where the local fishermen had sup
posed Capt. Cooney and crew should
be, and cleared up the situation con-
l.siderably.
The captain Of the steamer wrote
that he had sighted the smack two
days before Christmas, and that he
had picked up the signals of distress
being set. He said he bore down
upon them and found the smack with
barred poles, and in a heavy sea, al.
though there was no desire on the
part of the captain or crew to leave
the vessel. The only request made
by Captain Cooney was that theil
position and plight be reported, which
the steamship did without loss of time
the message being picked up by the
station at Tampa, and thence wiret
overland to the owners here. Captain
Kramer stated that the smack re
ported it had a sufficient supply Of
food but wanted some oil, which wa!
freely supplied. When the steamer
left the smack, the letter stated, j;
jury rig had been set up, and a mes
sage from Captain Cooney, announc
ing that he had arrived at some poin
on the Florida coast, is being looket
for every day.
Tt was also stated in the letter tina
the smack's sails were only cut ava,
after the vessel had heeled over, ant
was going down before the heav,
weather, when Captain Cooney or
dered the sails cut away, his order
having been obeyed without delay
No lives were lost, and all was a
well as could be expected under tn
circumstances, the letter intimated.
