ONLY One WIRE
FROM LAKELAND
ON COAST Line
Communication With Richland
20 Miles North on West Coast
Division Only Outlet

John O'Donald, chief dispatcher for
the Atlantic Coast Line stated at 1:30
that the only line working from his
office was one to Richland, twenty
miles to the north, on the West Coast
or Waycross division. For a short
time this morning a line to Fort
Myers was in order, and it was re-
ported that the wind there had not
been strong enough to do great dam
age, but that the city had suffered
from high water. There is said to be
great damage to the docks at Fort
Myers and Punta Gorda, and a trestle
is reported out near Fort Myers Both
south bound trains Tuesday turned
back at Fort Ogden. 1t is expected
that No. SO today will get within four
miles of Fort Myers. Trains to Port
Tampa are said to be turning back
at Tampa. Men are out working on
the lines in all directions and it is
expected that the system will be re-
instated by night. The trouble with
the wires began Sunday night, and
failed completely at three o'clock yes
terday. Since then excepting for the
short time that the Fort Myers line
was in, there was no fire working
into the dispatcher's office until the
Richland wire came in at about noon.

TAMPA'S BAY SHORE DRIVE
WAS DEEP UNDER WATER

With too much water to look at
and none to drink and with no cleo
trio power in their Tampa home, Mr.
and Mrs. l.. S. Hildretn set out by
auto for Lakeland yesterday evening
and are guests of Mrs. Hildreths par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. j. w. Buchanan,
Sr.
The trip to Lakeland over the brick
and asphalt road was made with no
difficulty so far as the road was con-
cerned, but the storm was raging
around them.
Mr.. Hildreth gives an interesting
account of conditions in Tampa.
On the Bayshore Drive, a south
east wind drove the high tide four
blocks from the seawall. The water
came into the second story of homes
near the bay, and submerged the
white way system, except for a
glimpse of the globes between waves.
The Bayshore Drive is Tampas
choice residential section, and the
damage in the homes is thought to
be great. The tide turned at four
o'clock.
Plate glass windows on Franklin
street were blown in. Roofs, trees
and other debris blocked the streets.
The electric power was turned off on
Monday night and the city water was
shut off at four o'clock Tuesday.
Mr.. Hildreth states that the resi-
dents of Tampa were very apprehen-
sive under the storm conditions.
1t was reported in Tampa Tuesday
that Port Tampa, Pass-a-Grille and
Seldom Island, which is phosphate
shipping point, had been all washed
away.

New York. Oct. 26.-Foreign rails,
especially the Mexican group, were
buoyant at the opening of today's
stock market. Mexican Petroleum, as
a result of it's semi-annual statement
of earnings, made an early gain of
IA points. Initial dealings in that
stock included one lot of 5000 shares
at LOG IA to 10S against yesterday
final price of 103 IL. Pan American
Petroleum, General Asphalt and
Houston Oil were 1 to IL points
higher. Rails made Indifferent re-
Spouse to latest developments in the
labor situation, although coalers
showed decided firmness. The usual
industrial leaders registered only
nominal changes. Exchange on Lon
don was at it's highest quotation in
six months and the German mark
strengthened.

First American Novelist.

The man who is usually referred to
as the first American novelist and
whose claim to the title seems to be
undisputed, was Charles BrOckdeD
Brown, who was born in Philadelphia
In ,1771. and died in 1910. His best
novel, "Wieland." Is a morbid horror
story, based on ventriloqulsm, and
while improbable It contains scenes
of great power. He published several
other novels, and In 1870 book on d.
vorce and marriage whichsenunciated
many views then considered very radi-
cal but now widely accepted. No other
novels than his were published by a
native American until the appearance
Of 1.-THE Spy" by James Tenimore
Cooper, in 1881.

STORM NOTES
Continued from page u

The beautiful grounds at the Lake
Hollingsworth Drive residence of Mr..
and Mrs. C. M. Clayton present a
scene of desolation. Fifteen large
and beautiful oak trees have been
blown over and the wide expanse OF
lawn strewn with broken limbs and
piles of Spanish moss. Mrs. Clayton
said that hurried survey of the or.
ange groves revealed comparatively
small loss in fallen fruit but the res
toration of the grounds will entail
considerable expense.

was much less.

HUGHES WANTS
EXPLANATION
CALLS ON BRAND IN FAILURE
TO hARMoNiZE WITH U. ..
NAVAL POLICIES.
FRANCE WANTS FLEET
PLANS PRESENTED TO CONFER
ENcE HAS FULL AUTHORITY
OF FRENCH GOVERNMENT.
western Newspaper Union S.-. s.rics.,

woshinyton.-Secret Hughes as
chairman of the armament conference
has communicated directly with Pre-
mier BRAND of France regarding the
situation which has developed as
result of the stand of the French del
egntion on naval ratios. Mr. Hughes
is understood to have called the at
tention of NJ. BRAND to the uDexpect-
ed nature of the French proposal ana
to its failure to hnrmoniZe with the
basic principles upon which the liInita-
ton of naval armameats plan was
drawn.
Proposals made by the French dele
gntjon by the naval committee includ-
ed n definite schedule of construction
which contemplated the replacement
by 1941 of the present French battle
fleet by ten new ships totaling 350,OOO
tons.
The proposals and the accompany
ing schedule of planned construction
were presented with the full author
ity of the French government. 1t was
learned on best authority, and were not
as has been indicated in some quar-
tiers merely "a tentative departmental
plan
The first new ship would he laid
down in 1926 under the French plan
submitted to the committee, and each
year the keel of an additional ship
would he laid to gradually replace and
augment the present capital ship ton
mage of France, which, in the opinion
of her government is antiquated in de-
sign and inadequate 10 properly pro-
tect the nations interests.
Authoritative French opinion as OBJ
tained tonight, was that the plan and
its resulting ratio for France was en-
tirely reasonable. 1t was made plain
that there was no disposition to modify
the proposals in their Vital features,
or to accept the 175,0O0-ton-ratiO pro-
posed by the American delegation.
The naval experts of the French del
egation estimated that the last of the
new shops would be ready for service
in 1911, or not before ten years after
the period of the naval holiday con-
templated in the limitation agreement
now before the conference.
Essential features of the French
plan were submitted in table Illus
trating proposed construction, as fol
lows:
Year. Capital Ship Tonnage.
1926-184.OOO GALL old dreadnaughts.)
1931-2OO,OOO (two new and six old
| dreadnaughts)
1936-235,0OO Gone old and seven new
| dreadnaughts.)
| 1941-3J0, 900 (ten new dreadnaughts.)
An analysis. 1t was explained, woult
show that the French navy after ter
years would figure about 100000 tons
Of capital ships, including two new
| dreadnaughts, and that this would bt
only 10000 tons, representing approx
mately the tonnage of the two new
ships over the allotment made tt
France under the American plan.
