Sixteen Persons Periashed Im City and Many Faialities and Much Dam- ange Is Reported From Outiylag Dis- tricte=Fifty Houses In Caplial Were Wrecked — Street Car and Electric ‘Light Service Held Up. Storm, HAVANA, Oct. 20—As a result of the worst cyclone that Havana has ex perienced since 1584 and that shut off Cuba from the rest of the world for mote then thirty-six hours, sixteen per son= ape known to have lost their lives, scercs were Injured and great damage caused to property. The Prado and many parks In the city have been practically destroyed, and thirty-five lighters have been sent to the bottom. All electric communi- catién within the city and with the outs world was cut off. The whole American fleet of warships that lay at anchor in the harbor was menaced, snd one of them was blown ashore, but soon floated again. The troops and sallors, however, es caped injury, and the fatalities are confined {po natives Mote than 1000 of the tents In Camp Columbia, where the American troops are lodged, were blown to tat ters, and a few of the soldiers were slightly injured, the majority, however, escaping with a good drenching The Brooklyn dragged her anchor un til her stern grounded In the mud off La Regla. She was stranded for many hours, hut got off without Injury. Harry Fesdick, an army teamster. with the Twenty-eighth infantry, from Sioux City, la, sustained probably fa- tal Injuries He was crushed by a tree whieh fell through the barracks in which be was sleeping. Fred Sut clife of Fort Suciling bad his head sarieusly injured, and Thomas Shenealt of Reading, Pa, sustained injuries to his back One hundred and fifty tobacco barns in the Alquisar district have Lecn de- stroyed. TBe receatly planted tobacco crop also has been seriously damaged. Enetmous damage is reported from the Guira section, the center of the banana and plantain growing industry. These crops are sald to have been practically totally destroyed, Many small farm: ers have lost their all and are in great distress Tue csulsers Denver and Minneapo- lis, the battleship Texas, the auxiliary cruiser Prairie and the supply ship Celtic all dragged their anchors wore or less, but prompt seamanship averted collisions. These ships were all made fast to permanemntly amchored buoys, which »ever before were known to have dragged. The damage sustaioced by the squadron amounts to little. Two boats were lost, and sowe of the lighter deck Attings were carried away. The bridge of the Prairie was displaced Two ceasting schooners were driven high om the rocks at the Malacon. The crew of oae managed to get ashore, was dpewned. The chartered army transpett Cubano, from Newport News with horses and mules and a few teammsters, bas arrived here after a ter rific struggle with the hurricane at sea. In Havana city about fifty houses were more or less Injured, but owing to the massive construction of roofs and walls the damages are serious In only a few instances. The buildings of the University of Havana sustained damages amounting to many thousands of dollars. A partition wall in the American legation was blown down, The office furniture was rulued, and the books and records of the legation were wet through, Eight persons were killed and four were injured by the collapse of a tene- ment house om Inguisidor street. The other fatalities resulted from falling signs and cornices, contact with live wires in the city or by drowning in the harbor. The great unoccupled brick bullding covering the old United rail road wharf, near Regia, wus totally demolished. The street car service lo Havana has been partly resumed, but the bowlders that were washed across the track of the suburban line along the sea’ front have not yet been removed. One of the wrecked schooners Is now perched on the rocks In frout of the Sants Clara battery, 100 feet from the water, while the other is crushed and battered against the sea wall at the foot of the Prado, Oable communication with the out- a A fa. $0 ¥uddenly on been sent by a weather observer by telephone. The Rev. Loveat Gungoiti, a noted weather observer of Belano College ob. servatory, telephoged to the American camp at half past 7 o'closk Wednesday night that a cyclone was coming and would sweep the city within an boar The officers promptly gave orders to secure all prgperty, and the soldiers jumped to the work. Exactly at half past 8 the blast hit the camp, and rows of tents went down like paper walls, the poles flying through the air. The men, however, had sought refuge in the barracks, and these resisted the fury of the wind. When the telephone message was re- celved word was sent to the captains of the various warships, and they pro ceeded at once to make all snug and take every precaution to save ships and men. Asx a result the Minneapolis, Texas, Deaver and Prairie rode out the gale in safety, but the cruiser Brooklyn dragged her moorings and at the height of the hurricane touched bottom. She was got off, however, with no damage The cyclone began in a heavy rain, which started about 6 o'clock. The wind rose rapidly and increased with great fury until at midnight it was blowing at the rate of eighty miles an hour. The streets of the city wer: del uged, and many of then took og the appearance of rivers, while stores and cellars were flooded and street ears were swamped. Great bulldiugs shook Windows and doors gave way, and signs and all superstructures pot tight ly fastened were blown into the strects aud parks The noise made by the howling tem- pest was intensified Ly the crashing of glass, the ripping sound of tin and tiles torn from roofs and the thud of houses blown down in the poorer quarters It was doe to the falling of houses that so many fatalities occurresl. The occupants who had sought shelter from the rain and wind were cfught in the debris, and many of them died before they could be rescued. It was almost impossible for anybody to venture out to the relief, and little was done in the rescue line until morning Then it was that the full extent of the devastation wrought by the furious cyclone was realized The beautiful Prado, that has been the pride of the city, presented a sad sight. Only six frees remained standing out of the scores that shaded the thoroughfare between the Malacou aud Park Central The beautiful vista of the day before was pow a wild path, strewn with thick uuderbrusl, and the park itself was stripped of Its magnificent trees The laurels were nll uprooted, and only a few stately palins withstood the fury of the binst The greatest mouey loss, which is es- timated at $2,000,000, occurred in the harbor, where thirty-five lighters, many of them loaded with valuable merchan- dise, were sunk * Nineteen belong to the Ward line and others to Joseph E. Gonzales. Two coasting schooners were blown ashore, one at the Malncon and the ather at Vidado. This latter suburb suffered severely Reports of heavy damage from towns in the interior of the Island are coming in gradually. It Is said that the town of Matanzas Guannjay has been practi. cally destroyed, and It is reported that there has been much loss of life in other places where the hurricane was most severe, The cyclone struck the island at Or temesia and swept through Pinar del Rio, Its center passing very near and a little east of the city of Havana. The city was in darkness all night, Lut not a crime was reported, as the storm filled everybody with fear, and they ouly thought of self preservation. Most of the damage done by the storm can be repaired in a short time, but it wiil take years to restore to thelr former beauty the parks and streets where trees were blown down. STEAMER ST. LUCIE LOST. Twenty-eight Dead — Fishing Fleet Reported Missing. MIAMI, Fla, Oct. 20.—The steamer 8t. Lucie, Captain Bravo commanding, has sunk off the Florida coast.
