So far as reported oflicially this Is the ilrst instance in which a British traisport has been attacked success fully by a submarine.

Pall.as, Texas, Aug. 18.-Galveston has emerged from one of the most severe storms in the annals of -th\ Gulf of Mexico, battered and seyere ly burdened with financial loss, but with the known loss of life less than a score. I This summarizes the first definite news received from the island city snce the tropical hurrieane wvhich Monday began battering against tho gigantic. sea wall whlch protects the city from the waters of the gulf. An accurate estimate of the property (am1age was not possible toniight, but those wh(1o did veiinre an estimato say that It might reach the propor tions of the storm of 1900 when pro pcrty valued at $15,000,000 was swept away. The first messenger from the strick el city reiclied Houston today and IePorted a thousand feet of-the sea wall swept away; the causeway which 'coniiects Galveston with the mainland (ut into, and the city strein with the debris of 500 buildings crushed by the assaults of wind and tidal waves. Fires Add to Damage. Three fi'res also did great damage and the city is without an adequate supply of drinking water, the mains leading to the cIty's supply w ells at Alto Loma, 18 miles away, having been broken. The belated report today says that the storm reached its zenith at 3 o'clock Monday and tli cottages along the .ea wall were crumbled and scrattered into flying t1imbers. The waters of the glilf whipped into fuiry, tore away hits of sea wall luii till opelilng had beeni duiig into tile tough cement, then the battle between wat er and concrete began. Despite the fact that a thousand feet of the wall was battered away, Galveston attrib tes its salvation as a city to tle lig dike whhl was built a few years after the storm of 1900. One break 24) feet wide iii front of the Galvez hotel let in most. of the water that damaged the residential section. Giay Sections Swept. All Mhe city's resort bati hou0ses and beach amusements have been swept away. The Murdoch, tlie lBreakers aind the Surf bath liouses, each of' which Was a commoditiou1s fra me structure, Were (em1olisied and heap ed 11pon tle boulevard inl debris.
