STORM CREATESHAV0C
 WITH SHIPS IN SOUND !.
 SIX BARGES ARE SUNK
Men, Women and Children With Dogs, Cats and Pigs Are Taken Off Sinking Boats Which Were Carry ing Sand Cargoes to Bridgeport.

Twelve persOns-six men, four women and two children, the personnel of six sand and gravel barges enroute from Huntington, L. l., to Doherty Brothers in this city, in tow of the Goodwin Gallagher tug "PhoeniX" were rescued last night, when the boats, tossed for several hours in the high sea of Long Island sound, lost the battle with the waves and went to the bottom.
 The tug made a haven in Stamford harbor after the most narrowing eN perience, during which it was expect ed that the lives of 30 persons on the bargeS and the tug would be lost Fortune rather than fitness to stand the storm saved all hands and when they reached Stamford early this morning, all were worn out from the tasks that had been overcome.
 The six barges left Huntington late yesterday afternoon and no serious weather disturbance was anticipated. When half way across the Sound, a stiff wind that finally attained a ve- locity of nearly 80 miles an hour came from off the shore and with It a high sea was stirred up.
 The barge captain had no choice about which direction he would take and headed for shore against the wind. After short time it was apparent that the entire convoy was In peril and it was decided to take the crews off the barges and if neces- sary cut loose from them. It meant in two cases that women were forced to jump from one sea tossed barge to another in order to be rescued.
 The first of the six barges was swamped before the twelve persons had been safely landed aboard the tug and sunk in a few seconds, car rying the second with it in a shor. time. Lines were then cut and the Phoenix took up the dangerous bat tie alone
 With the persons rescued were two dogs, a cat and a pig. Report was made to the New York office of the company and the local firm was today advised of uDe sinking of the barges and the consequent delay in the de- livery of the sand and gravel which were to have been used in building work here.
 While the storm damage generally along the shore is reported slight, there Is no question of the violence of the squaIl The steamer Park City was unable to return to Bridgeport last night from Port Jefferson. the officials of the line fearing to take any chances
