Houston, September A hurri ine, accompanied bv a heavy rain, has been blowing along the Texas coast and or a hundred miles inland today. Tel graph and telephone wires are down along the coast and no accurate news Is obtainable. There are an sorts of rumors.

nothing authentic. Galveston Is shut entirely. Communication Was lost at o'clock this afternoon and no trains have been operated today and none will be run until late tomorrow. The last report from Galveston stated that the gulf waters were encroaching rapidly on the beach and that the flood had extended nto the residence portion of the city tor leveral blocks. The waves were high and boisterous In the bay and considerable damage was being done to small.

craft, though none of the big boats were then any danger. The rain has been heavy 11 dav and traffic was entirely suspenoea.

All Texas Anxious as to Bate of the Metropolis. Dallas. September All Texas Is In the keenest state of doubt and un certainty tonight concerning the fate of Galveston island and city, everybody's mind is the dire suspicion that an awful calamity rests behind the lack of information from the gulf coast.

It is reported here that Immense destruction has befallen Galveston and other places. It Is said that the bridges leading from the mainland to the island have been swept away by the terrible force of the wind and the rolling up of the water In the bay. The bridges are four in number, three for railroad uses and one the Galveston county public wagon and pedestrian bridge. It seems hardly creditable that all these bridges could be swept without the cltv suffering tremen dously In the loss of bulldisgs, general perty and Hves. ot a wire is working Into Galveston, either telegraph or telephone, and as all bridges carried wires, the fears that all the bridges are gone Is strengthened.

The Postal Telegraph Company this evening started out a repair train from Houston. but it proceeded a few miles only before it had to stop because of storm obstructions and had to return to Houston fwsthout making an improvement In the Postal service. The Western Union Is equally as bad and the telephone lines are also down. Considering that all that has been learned so far of the storm is from the mainland and the bay. a dread is felt that the wind may veer around gulf ward, in which event Galveston will be in direst peril.

special late tonight from Houston says there is "an unconfirmed rumor In that city that she hurricane raging along me kiui coast nas played smash with the town of Rockport, on the lower coast, and that the great clubhouse built by E. H. G. Green near there has been blown away with the loss of life, as there were several guests In the house, but their names are not Known here. The cam port says that a cyclone raged through Live Oak county, but It could not have done much damage, ae that county Is not 1 meaiy seniea.

The storm on the Texas coast has a fierce one, and there are ail son rumors ss to the damage done. The telegraph and telephone wires are down in every direction, and there is no way of confirming these rumors or of getting any accurate news as to what has really The wind has blown a hurricane all day. and has been accompanied 1 driving rain in Houston. Considerable damage has been done, but all of a minor character. Galveston Is abut off from the re the earth.

Not a train has come in or gone cut today, and none will get through tor 'ght, A partial report came through by wire thla afternoon, tt to said the low streets on both sides of the city were Inundated, and that many had been driven from their homes along the beach by the encroaching waters; the rainwater was standing in the stree the depth of three feet, and could not run off.

The damage dene about New Orleans was trifling, amounting only to the cost of fences blown down and truck farms on the outskirts flooded. At the resorts on the lake shore, where it was feared there would be considerable damage, none of any serious character occurred.
