Wind Blowing Sixty-Five Miles
An Hour And All Streets
Under Water
NO HARM HAS BEEN
DONE TO SHIPPING
Huge Waves Break Harmlessly
Over Sea Wall-No Damage
From Wind

Galveston, Texas, Sept. 14.-With
e5-rile wind, high tides and heavy
seas, the tropical, storm struck Cal
weston this morning, tidewater from
the bay flooding the business section
of the city and the north side of the
island with three feet of water. Huge
waves broke harmlessly on the sea
wall and there was no material dam
age from the wind. Shipping in this
vicinity weathered the storm. The
wagon bridge across the bay was not
damaged and tonight was open to
traffic.
Two thousand feet Of track on the
causeway and railroad bridge connect
ing Galveston with the main land was
washed out. destroying rail communi-
! cation with the outside world but Of
fcials of the Gulf, Colorado and iSan-
IA Fe railroad said this would be re-
paired within twenty-four hours.
Water early tonight still stood to
the curb in the streets for five blocks
from the bay, and residents went
about necessary business in boats. top
boots and bathing suits, accepting the
situation good-naturedly.
Galveston residents apparently re-
,garded the approach Of the storm with
equanimity and took it as a matter OF
course when. it struck. At midnight
there was a light wind and no rain
bat the streets were practically de-
serted. ~
Small crowds gathered on the boule-s
ward which skirts the sea wall, but
they soon dispersed. Later, when the
water backed in from the bay, refugees
began struggling through the streets,
carrying bundles and babies, some OF.
them in night raiment
A number Of refugees found shelter
in Office buildings. Others were hous-
ed in the court house, the public lib
ary and the city schools.
Water was standing in Market
street. center of the business section.
when some stores were thrown open
and emergency workers began carry
ing merchandise to top floors. The
work was finished before the water
entered the buildings.
Wheat and other grain stored in

moving to the mainland for two days
and it was said there was little left to

train loads of wheat was hauled out
yesterday.
When day broke the rain, which for
a while had ceased. began to fall
again. Pieces of driftase hoated on
the water in the streets. A buggy
and an ice wagon appeared and here
