A Terrific Storm Raged Along
Atlantic Coast
LOSS RUNS INTO MILLIONS
Paterson, Passaic and Burlington, N.
J., Suffer Heavy Damage.
WRECKS ALONG VIRGINIA COAST
Paterson. N. J., Oct 12. For 4S
hours Paterson was at the mercy
of the Passaic river. The waters have
maintained a height sufficient to cut
the western half of the city from the
eastern half and almost all means of
communication by bridges have been
destroyed. Two bridges above the falls
depth of from two to six feet, and
iruch of the surrounding country was
also under water. In East Burlington
it is estimated that 90 per cent of
the houses are Inundated. Many fam
ilies are in want of food, and the mayor
and the chief of police made a tour
of some of the streets in a batteau
and furnished food to ti.ose in need.
The town was entirely cut off from
communication except by telegraph and
telephone, and unless the water re
cedes soon there will be a general
scarcity of food. No trains are run
ning on the Camden and Amboy divi
sion of the Pennsylvania railroad,
which passes through here.
The water rushed down the main
street so rapidly that people who
navigated through the town in boats
had a difficult time of It Some
buildings have become undermined,
and unless promptly repaired will
remain. Seven other bridges In the . probably collapse. The flood cut a new

direct loss of money and property
than the fire of nearly two years ago.
The gross loss then was $6,000,000,
with an Insurance of more than $4,

at considerably more than $2,000,000,
with no insurance.

these about 150 families are being

COA0T STREWN WITH WRECKAGE
Damage to Shipping Along Virginia
Coast Will Be Heavy.
Norfolk. Va., Oct. 12. The Virginia
coast from Cape Henry to Dam Neck
Mills. 12 miles south, is strewn with
the wreckage of several ill-fated craft
All communication with thp seashore
is cut off, but it is known that three
vessels have1 been wrecked and sev
eral lives lost Of the coal barges
Ocean Belle and Georgia nothing is
now left except mites of wreckage on
the shore. Captain George H. Adams
and Seaman Charles Peters were
drowned, while Joseph Peters, Peter
Lopoa and M. Payne owe their lives to
the heroism of Surfman Charles Capps.
of life saving station No. 2. All these
men were on the Ocean Belle, and
when this barge was dashed ashoro
the waves swept her decks clear of
rigging and chow. Capps plunged into
the surf, and after desperate struggles
brought nil three men to land.

laden, from Pcnsacola, Is n total wreck
on the coast three miles from Dam
Niek .Mills. The crew Is s i'".
The passenger steamer r .lorted off
shore In a dangerous poslii was the
Old Dominion steamer Hiiulllen, from
New York. The Hami!'"n reached
Norfolk after a terrible experience in
the gale. The sUnnier was not dam
ngod to any great extent, but the suf
fering of the passengers, particularly
those In the steerage, was heart-rending.
Locked in the bowels of the plung
ing and lurching ship, those foreign
ers, men, women and children, became
panic-.stric k( n, and their shrieks of
terror could be heard above the gale.
Many of them were bruised by the
tossing of the boat, and three received
fractured limbs, aside from other
hurts.
Among the first-class passengers the
fear of death In the storm was as
great as among those below. Life
preservers were worn constantly by
nearly every or.c, and some women be
came hysterical and collapsed.
A tour of the coast revealed scenes
of havoc In the path of the gale. At
Ocean View the immense pleasure
pier is a total wreck, and the damage
to the club houses, cottages and ex
tensive bulkheads will run far into
the thousands. The handsome new
home of the Hampton Roads Yacht
Club is one of the worst sufferers, but
all along the bay shore the damage
is great. At Cape Henry tne bay and
ocean beach is covered with the wreck
age from small craft, and the mam
moth double-decked pavilion is badly
damaged. The loss at Virginia Beach
exceeds that of any other place here
abouts. The wide boardwalk, extend
ing for two miles along the ocean
front. Is practically demolished, the
portions left standing being in such a
condition as to require rebuilding.
Cottages are partly unroofed and
porches washed away by the sea that
threatened to engulf the entire resort
