VAGE SIX. THE MOKNING ASTORIAN, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1901. GREAT GALE, HITS COAST Storm of Unusual Fury Rages Ov er Northwest, Paralyzing Shipping. , ; 1 - ; - - MAY LAST FOR SOME DAYS Marines Report Yesterday's Bar One of Worst They Have Ever Seen Other Marine v Happeulnjfs. The storm which came up Saturday night Increased In fury Sunday and lace that time a very severe gale has raged along the north Pacific coast. The wind lashed the sea Into fury and shipping has been completely paralysed. The gale reached its height early yes terday morning, when the wind howled along at the rate of 70 miles an "hour or more. Captain Wicklund, of the Hammond life paving crew, said last ' night that the weather was as bad as any he had ever seen at the mouth of the Columbia, and similar reports are made by other persons who visited the mouth of the river. ' Testerday the bar was breaking very badly. When the news came of the stranding of the schooner Howe on North beach Captain Dunwoodie, of the revenue cutter Perry, started Imme diately for the scene. The Perry went down to the mouth of the river, but could proceed no further. The bar was breaking in a terrible manner and a ' glance at the white seas Indicated only too plainly that no vessel could live there. The tug Tatoosh was unable to cross out, and Captain Dunwoodie de termined that be could not trust the perry (o the fury of the gale. The cutter was therefor compelled to put back into the harbor. She bad started for the cen of the disaster with the Intention on the part of the master to take the Point Adams life crew to the rescue of the unfortunate mariners, but the trip was abandoned on account of the storm. The government transport Dlx Is still tied up la the lower harbor, waiting moderation of the gale, and there is lit tie prospect of her immediate depar ture. The detention to this vessel will doubtless cause much Inconvenience to the department. . The steamship Ore gon Is also weather bound. She is ly ing at the mouth of the river. The Indications last night were for continuance of the heavy weather and it is likely no vessel will arrive or de part for a few days to come. hastening with the revenue cutter Per ry to the mouth of the river In an ef fort to render assistance to the crew of the schooner Howe was generally com mended yesterday. It was only re gretted that the cutter could not have gone to the scene of the disaster and assisted in saving the men. SHE AVERTED A PANIC WAS TWICE OVERDUE. French Bark La Bruyere 230 Days ; Out From Shields to Astoria. The French bark La Bruyere. which arrived In at Astoria Saturday after noon, has been longer on the way than any cargo ship that has reached port lor several months, and has had the distinction of being twice on the over due list on the same voyage. She left Shields early last May and did not reach Port Los Angeles, her first port of call, until late in December. After discharging part of her cargo there, she sailed north, but was so long In working up the coast that underwrit ers were again quoting reinsurance on her several days before she arrived When she left Europe she was char tered for December wheat loading at Portland at 23s 6L but long before she reached here rates fell away to the loweBt point on record. From that low point there has been a gradual recov ery, but thus far it has been Insufficient to warrant the charterers In keeping her, and as she had missed her can celling date she was thrown on the market. The repairs to her damaged top mast will take a number of days, and she will probably be chartered for some kind of business by the time they are completed. Calm Words of Factory Employ Stills Confusion. New York. Feb. SS. A bucket of hot rubber cement was aetdentally unset shortly before 9 o'clock this morning on the fourth floor of Hanan & Sons' shoe factory, at Bridge and Front streets, and started a blase that caused considerable excitement among the 300 women and 600 men employes. Two hundred and fifty of the women were at work on the fourth floor when the flames began to spread, and In stantly there was a rush for the ele vator and hall exits, ome of the girls subsequently complained that the men rather got -the better of the scramble for the elevator, totally disregarding the precedence usually accorded to sex. Alice Fltxgerald. 63 years old, of 1879 Atlantic avenue, at the height of the confusion, counseled her companions ro maintain cool heads, and her words be ing followed by doxens of the girls, a panic was averted. The flames were extinguished by employes before the engines arrived, and the total loss will not exceed $1000 it is thought." ... Several young women fainted In the scramble to escape. Those requiring medical attendance were: Miss Mc Donald, of 182 Ryerson street; Miss Minnie Corbln, 18 years old, of 1822 Second avenue, Manhattan; Lena Hass Ier, 14 years old, of 44 Vanderblle ave nue, and Barbasa Smith, of 69 Nassau street. ; , . A girl named Corbln in her excite ment dropped her purse, which con tained 125, and it was not found. While fighting the fames, Frederick Klrkman, of ITS Elder street, and Dominlck Sqalu, of 9 Lawrence street, were burned on the hands. They were attended by an ambulance surgeon, but not removed. Hook and ladder truck 68 collided with an electric light pole at the cor ner of Bridge and Plymouth streets on the way to the fire and threw one of the crew from the running board to a snow heap. The man received i slight shaking up, but was not otherwise In jured. The apparatus was only slightly damaged. , 1 asm BTJSINES S mo G &h S LET YOUR WANTS BE KNOWN Somebody W what you want, or want what you have to sell.
