Telegraphic cotniuunlcatleu with Atlan

be finished te-day. The cilv was sub
merged and twenty theii'-und tcople in
Ereat terror and distress while a violent
urricane provalled. All supplies hnd

the swaying mils supported only bv the

cseapes, arrived at Pleasant vllle, drenched,
biulscd aud oxhuused.
Thore had been no news from Atlantic
City slnce Tuesday, and en the afternoon ut
thai day the correspondent writes: " 'Will

been steady and alarming. It dashed tip
the ocean avenues and ever the open lets,
tearing up and shnttcrlng the boardwalk
and pavilions, uprooting foundation piling
and casting bath houses, restaurants and
. ether structures Inte neeiifu sod mass of de
bris. It came rushing ever tlie meadows
by way ofthe swollen thoroughfare, flood
ing the railroad tracks and the many dwell
ing heubes en that exposed area, carrying
terror and desolation.
It swept In mighty volume ever the inlet
district, completely submerging semu of
the beuses, overturning ethcisand wreck
lug the yachts nud beats. The waters were
being lorced in from the thoroughfare by
a regular hurricane, with u velocity vary
ing, it was suited, irem CO te 65 miles an
hour, and from the ocean propei by a Heed
tlde or ground swell unprecedented. The
ra n begau falling in torrents Tuesday
morning, and all tbreimh the dav ndded
its volumes te the general Inundation, and
when dreary nlglitfnll enveloped the city
nearly every feet el It was submerged, the
Heed varying in depth te llve feet.
Hetel guests hurried te the railroad do de do
iels as II their very llfodependcd en speed,
and once there thev did net howl the ex
perienced people wne said mat the mead
ows wero flooded aud n safe passage Im
possible. They lushed pell-mell into the
cars, and actually forced the railroad men
Inte making an attempt te reach the main
land. Thcre w ere four trains in all. Kach
hnd a locomotive In the front aud one in
the rear, when they headed for the Heeded
meadow land and lliev crept along ever the
hidden tracks as if fearful eHi fatal plunge.
They all went out between the hours of ()
nnd U In the morning, Justus the high tlde
was Hearing its lull limit. The liuriicane
tee was gaining iu strength, and its llcix'e
sweeping gusts threw the waterlu velumes
agaliibt the car windows and inade the
heavy ceachts rock te and fro as If in
momentary danger of overturning. It was
then that u feeling of dicad and terrer
filled the indibcrcet passengers, who, but
a short lime belbre were gleclul in
their anticipations of a speed v es
cape from the storm-wrecked clly.
Their engines worn plowing through two
feet el water, which threatened every
moment te put out their flre-. and as there
was a veritable sea ahead liiere was no
alternative but te return, se the engines
were reversed and the nip back begun.
Hardly a furlong had been co oral, how
ever, when the (Ires were extinguished bv
the rushing torrents of water, which now new
dashed against the cars with tmrillc force,
breaking the windows and completely en
voletiing the trains In sheets of sprav.
"iirai ii uecauie Known 10 me pusscii-
f;crs that their trains were helpless and ut
he mercy of the rising waters, there was a
scene of cousternntioii among them that
beggars de-.ciinllen. We.neu -remicd
and fainted, children cried, and stout
hearted men for the nonce gae wuv te the
general despair. All ellerts te modify the
awful despondency seemed unavailing", and
it was only when the conductors went fiein
ear te car aud shouted themselves hearse
te the effect that lcllef engines had been
telegraphed for that the frightened passun
geis resumed a mera hepetul nir, and pa
tiently awaited the appieaih of their res
cuers. When they did ceme, it took a
mighty ell'ert te pull the trains ever the
sunken and twisted tracks, and It w libit
o'clock In the afternoon before the last
train lead of weary passengers was pulled
slowly Inte the Camden .v Atlantic depot.
As night approached the guests at the
ocean front hotels stampeded in cieuds le
the Atlantic avcuue houses, many uviiig
fabulous prices for cartiages, as high us
fi5 a trip. The force of the waves was
appalling. Whele squares of the board
walk were thrown high into the air, the
shattered timbers tailing down in a shower
of small nieces; pavilions, bath beuses,
booths and ethor buildings were raised bod
ily and carried out te sea or thrown en the
beach in a mass of ruins. Onlvthc main
pavilion of the costly Iren pier remains.
Kire and water was the dread combina
tion which assailed the dozen or mere
buildings en the olevated urea below Texas
avenue, knew n as I.ce's Ocean Ten-ace.
This btreiigly protected spot Juts out into
the ocean, and the owner of it is reputed
as having rcinuiked, utter he had com
pleted n stout wall in ou ml it, that he would
' defy the Almighty" te destroy his well well
fertilicd terrace lucsdax morning's, high
tide, however, been bioke through the sea
wall and dashed around the building.
The women and children w cre carried te u
pl.ice of safety llrst, and then followed the
movable furniture, lint long before the
men hud completed their task, the build
ings, some of them tliree sleiies high, suc
cumbed te the waves and toppled e er sea
wards. They rem lined in thlsceudithiu
until midnight, aud then when the ('light
ened mid nervous hotel guests were on en on
deaveiing te get a few hours' lest, a sheet
of llaiue was seen te el met up lreni the
ruined buildings, unci in an instant the
thrilling clang of the liie bells rang out
above the lear ofthe wind and waves.
Poiple ut the hetels sprung from their
beds in terror aud rushed pell-mell te the
low er halls, the innieritv of them, men and
women alike, clad hi nothing save their
scanty night attire. A guest at the Man
sion beuse, where there" wereevci 'M) peo pee
p'e, thus describes the sc-ciie: ''The women
came rushing down stairs with blanched
faces, wringing their hands and crying us
if the day el judgment had ceme and they
each had a scere te kettle. Outslde banging
shutteis, creaking signs, the howling hur
ricane, the hiss and swish of the swaying
trees, the rushing, clanging 111 e engines,
and thogenoral commotion attending u lire
at night, struck terror Inte the hearts of
tlii'Mi women, and they huddled together
in the parlors and prayed."
When the high tlde struck the meadow
slde u stampede for llfe began. A sick
woman wns carried by two stalwart
brothers te a place of safety. A mother
and lather, thinking only ol'Velf-preserva-tlon,
deserted their babe in the ciadle, and
en returning in a bout found the little ene
a corpse. Men swam out from their Heeded
houses, bearing In their arms their babes,
wives, methers or bisters.
At Cape May the lleach in ci.tie drive is
destroyed, and cast ofthe Stockton several
cottages were Heeded and wrecked, but the
damage does net appear te haw been great.
At May's Landing several large schooners
were tern from their meeting and carried
inland. Tliree sthoeucrs wne wicrkcd

men ure known te hae been ucd. The
shipW. It. Grace Is if-heie en the point of

AtOceau City, Maryland, the situation
wus alarming in the extiemc. The
large columns suppeiting the perches
at the hotels and cetUgesaru washed au a v,
the doers and windows uie broken down
aud the furniture Is (leuting about the
beach. The seas hist night were breaking
lothebccond story ofthe Atluntlc hotel and
Congress hall, ana huge waes who run
ning through the hotels six feet deep. The
life-saving btatien was damaged, and the
crew were preparing le desert it last night
A special train was sent ever last night te
rescue the dwellers en the beach. The
work was ucceinplbhcd by a large number
10.
of stout men joining hitnds mid wading
through water wnlst deep. They brought
the ladles te the earn otie by one" seated en
their joined lands. In this way nil were
saved. It was a perilous undertaking, and
several times the rescuers were knocked
down. Mr. Steckcs, ene of the reviling
party, was washed out te km, but an in
coming wave threw him back towards the
bench and he was saved.
Between Oce.an View and Bea lsle Clly a

Corjieral Tniincr has resigned. He sent
a letter or resignation te the preslilcnt to te
'Kht at midnight exactly by Marshal
Ransdell, who bus been (lie mutual friend
In Iho mailer, le the effect that IiihhiiiucIi as
he had evidently beceme a source of rm
lKirrassnuiiit te Iho admlniHtratlen he de
sired te rellev e the stress.
One orthe objects el Soniiter Frank Ills
cock's visit te the capital wus te discuss the
lauucr case. Lnte Monday ulloriieon,
when Mr. Hlsceck liml nlrmiilv mnr,.....,
at length with Mr. Hurrlseu. he drove te
tlm pension eillcc. He nud Mr. Tnuner
tulked together In the llttle side room. Sen Sen
aeor Hlsceck's errand was te see If Cori-eial
1 miner would net resign his place volun
tarily. It was represented thnt the president had
ceme te (he eoncluslen that the commis
sioner or pension must jru, though only
with great dlHlculty, but that he must go
there was no lenger any doubt. Ne ex
planation would avail, no meicy was te be
expected. The shock te the party, Mr. Hls Hls
eock set forth, would net be great if Mr.
lauucr went peaceably. Ir he appeared
le resign goed-nnturodfy and or his ncceid
the administration would be well pleased.
Hut Iho corporal was led le understand
with cual cerlalnty that Mr. Neblo had
nsisted that the cabinet efllcer and the
bureau chlef could net get nleng together :
that under the free Interpretation or the
tensions law the Interior department w euld
be Hcandullzcd, and that (he secretary would
net be the one te go.
The commissioner ofpcnslens was natur
ally start led at the suddenness or this re
quest. He hud passed Iho cabinet meeting
surely. He wus holding his tenuuii. A
slateinent prepared from Iho olllce books
he felt showed that most or the chaigcs el'
extravagance wero thnmsolves extrav
agant. Soineortliocorpoial'H host friends
advised him novcrle resign, thai it was
net soldierly te ritlre under lire, that (he
president might reiiuest a resignation, but
would net dismiss film,
Mr. Tanner went le bed Monday evon.
Ing without having decided what te de.
'me suggestion ei Mr. Hlsceck was, of
Miiiise, llttle else (han iidrmiuid fiem the
oecullvo;uiid (here was no cabinet ofll efll

Ihein weie hull' 11 de?iui. Ycslerdny morn
ing the corpeinl wus still litdeubt. Alter
he reached (he pension olllce he telephoned
his Mend, Daniel Ibiiisdcll, inurshal of
the district or Columbia, le ceme (e his
room. This wus (he ftlcnd and neighbor
of (he president who had bi ought Iho coin cein coin
nilsslenor early word (but Mr. Harilson
desired hlm (e be llbeiul with the soldiers,
buthe liiiist keepjillhiu Iho limits of the
law, mid, mere than all else, he must step
talking. Marshal llausdell, after 11 visit te
Iho WhKe Heuso, left 110 doubt In the com
missioner's mind, inherit had been uuy be bo be
lere, that the president wns determined le
remove hlm, mid that at ouce if he did net
reslpi. It was net that he hud broil forced
toreslKn. He was te dolt willingly and
goed-naturedly. The inference was (hat
he could easily be transferred te soine
ether position in the goveriimcnt, though,
of course, Mr. Harrison had made no such
premise, mid Mnrshnl Huusdcll could net
mnke nny. It nppcurcd that II' the
resignation did net ceme (o-nieirow It
would be demanded openly. Thcie could
he no delay until Mendny.
Mr. Tanner nttended te the duties or Ids
olllce during Tuesday. A row Mends
called, mid soine eriliem advised hlm. The
commissioner, accompanied bv Mm. Tan
ner, loll at I o'clock for his home In
Georgetown, apparently disconsolate.
Muishal Ransdell spent all Iho evening
at Commissioner Tannei's houte lust night.
Twe or lliree ether friends of the corporal
had culled. It wus Iho same old problem.
The question wus hew might Secretary
Neblo be sallsllcd, and hew ut the same
tlme might Iho corporal wille 1111 honest,
solf-res-tecllng lcUcr of reslgiiiideii. Tlie
ground wus (hat the secretary and the
commissioner were net compatible. Hut
should Mr. Tanner, belng under Investi
gation by u committee, with which he had
nothing te ile and before which he had net
been called te testily, admit, by net saying
anything about It.that hehud been entirely
te blame?
II he wrole the desired kltur it was net
certain that either his friends would mi
,'crstaud IiIh -tositleu or (hat KepublKuiis
generally would. Marshal Ransdell was
hejtclul that some amicable arrangement
might yet be made by which the change
would be satisfactory te the coreiul and
geed politics at (be same tlme. It Is be
lieved thnt two Icders of resignation were
prepared, ene short and le set forth (hat
iliilereuces existed between the secretary
ofthe Interior and the commissioner ns te

notorious that biue.ui chiefs und net cabi

although 1111 Investigation wns In progress
berore which the accused had net been pur pur
mltted te defend himself, he respeitlully

A second letter, six (lines us long us the
llrst, iierenllug te ncveui.t set lerlh nil the
diflcienees between Assistant Secretary
Hussey and Mr. Tmitier, and answered
sciiutlm the charges made-against himself.
It did net apptarthut tidier Inter would
