Rough estimates of the financial loss due to the storm are $2,ooo,ooo on and around Manhattan Island alone. So far, 18 lives are known to have been lost in the storm and it is believed this number will double when all reports are in, Driven Ashore. One of the most thrilling stories of the disaster is that of the excursion and freight steamer S. E. Spring, which was driven ashore near the country mansion of C. E. Benedict, at Greenwich, Conn, Captain McDonald, his crew of seven men and ii passengers were rescued largely through the aid of the Benedict servants. The Spring was trying to put back to Stamford and the gale had reached a velool. ty of 8o miles an hour, when the rudder became broken and the vessel floundered at the mercy of the storm. The panic-stricken passengers fled to the upper deck where they sought refuge In the cabhln and the women became hysterical. The pilot was still trying to turn about, when a sudden gust of wind tore off the entire roof of the upper deck, leaving only the pilot house. When the roof went off the boat was lifted half out of the water. The strain was so great that it tore off the rudder and when she settled down again in the trough of the sea, she was perfectly help less. Realizing that they were at the mercy of y k i i: rcý' the storm, the sailors, as a last resort, made a determined effort to get an anchor down to hold the steamer's head to the wind. No sooner had they done so than the chain snapped. The steamer was fast being driven toward Shelving Rock, one of the most dangerous shoals on the Con necticut shore. The passengers were or dered to put on life preservers and be ready to board the life rafts. A scene of wild confusion followed. The crew launched the largest life raft and the passengers, with life preservers, tstood ready to get upon it, when the raft sud denly struck the hull of the boat and was pounded to pieces. A second life raft put over by the crew also was destroyed. This left only one small boat of any de scription on the steamer and it was so smashed that Captain McDonald was afraid to put it over, He tried to put up distress signals, but the wind snapped off the flagstaff, The steamer drifted along the shore an hour until she hit the rocks ofe Point Bene dict and stove in her hull. All Hands Landed. As soon as she struck a colored cools dropped Is feet to the rocks. The water was over his head and he was tossed un til he was badly bruised, but he kept on swimming and was finally tossed on the beach. The servants ashore grasped lines from the ship and in a few minutes all hands had been safely landed. Oil Barge Sunk.

New York, Sept. 17.-While en route from Oyster Bay to New York yesterday on the naval yacht Sylph, President Roose velt passed through a terrific wind and rain storm, during which the vessel was in inmmediate danger. Subsequently he visited the immigration station on Ellis island, New York hay, and made a thor ough inspection of the institution. Shortly after to o'clock in the morn ing., nearly an hour later than had been arranged, President Roosevelt boarded the Sylph in Oyster bay. lie was accom panied by Mrs. Roosevelt and their son Kermit, Mrs. Richardson, a New York friend of Mrs. Roosevelt, Secretary Loeb, Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart of Harvard college, Prof. J. B. Moore of Columbia university, C. Grant I.afarge of New York and Jacob A. Riis of Richmond hill, i.. I. In addition, the president's guests included members of the press associa tions. \When the Sylph weighed anchor the skies were dark and forbidding, and as the vessel drew out of the Day a light rain fell. Less than an hour after the Sylph had entered the Long Island sound she ran into a terrific wind and rain storm. The storm increased in severity rapidly and oai Fort Schuyler it developed into a hurricane. The wind blew, according to an estimate made by Lieutenant Prescott. commander of the Sylph, at the rate of (5 miles an hour. The Sylph, a compara tively small vessel, pitched heavily, and ulT Willett's point listed very sharply to starboard. The president and his guests had been forced to go below, and beyond a drench ing none of them suffered inconvenience. The storm became even more severe as the vessel neared Hell Gate. The waves and wind swept the deck, making it almost impossible for the sailors to remain ex posed to their force. The baggage of the party, consisting principally of hat boxes and dress suit cases, was swept about the deck, and everything movable on deck had to be clewed down to prevent its being swept overboard. Inll ell Gate, a quarter of a mile off the port bow of the Sylph, a tugboat, hav ing in tow a large three-masted schooner, was capsized by the wind and waves, She sank stern foremost, but did not settle completely out of sight for perhaps five minutes. L.ieutenant Prescott wished to stand by to render such assistance to the tug crew as he could, but Capt. William R. Brain ard, an experienced pilot, who was at the wheel, declared it would be foolhardy for the Sylph to attempt a rescue in such a storm: that she almost certainly would be wrecked herself in. the attempt, President Roosevelt knew nothing of the capsizing of the tugboat until nearly an hour afterward. He then expressed the wish that some assistance might have been rendered the crew, it was the expectation that Mrs. Roose velt, Mrs. Richardson and some of the guests of the president could be landed at Twenty-third street, Mrs, Roosevelt de siring to pass the day in the city with relatives. Owing to the severity of the storm, which was still raging with furious energy, it was found impracticable to make a landing at that point, The naval tug Powhattan, in command of Lieutenant Largest Dental Offices in Butte Regular $8 Gold Crowns - $5.00 PERFECT SET OF TEETH AT $5 AND $10 A SET All Work (iuaranteed to Be the Very finest TEETH EXTRACTED ABSOLUTELY WITHOUT PAIN Call and Get Prices This Month Before Going Elsewhere DR.
