Damage estimates ranged from $38 million to $56 million.

Connecticut and New York's Long Island bore the brunt of the storm, but much of the damage was caused by fallen trees that blocked streets and pulled down power lines. An estimated 3.5 million customers lost power temporarily as the hurricane passed. Bob Blair, a spokesman for the Federal Emergency Management Agency in Washington, said Saturday that the agency had requests from the states of New York and Rhode Island for federal declarations of disaster areas and was surveying damage The Associated Press Utility crews worked Saturday to restore power to an estimated 1.8 million customers who remained blacked out by Hurricane Gloria, which contributed to nine deaths and caused tens of millions of dollars in damage even though it proved less destructive than expected. In the wake of Gloria's dash up the East Coast and across New England, sunbathers and strollers returned to beaches, and card dealers went back to work in the casinos of Atlantic City, N.J. Police in Connecticut reported sporadic looting, with 13 people arrested in New Haven since the storm hit.

Paul Moreno: Thorn in speakers' sides turns more tolerant TV, Intrigue over Lucas might peak in El Paso First in a series f'opyrntht by The El Paso Times, By Gary Scharrer Times stall uriter analysis By Ron Dusek Times stall writer AUSTIN Has Paul Moreno given up his die-hard principles, or is he just getting mellow with age? Moreno, a Democratic state representative who has represented South El Paso in the Texas Legislature for 18 years, has made an important decision, which could result in some significant action on his part, and which may require his constituents, colleagues and political observers to change their attitudes about him whatever those attitudes may be. It all began with one vote in the last session of the Legislature, Moreno said. House Speaker Gib Lewis broke a tie and voted for a health care plan for poor people.

Moreno, who considers the disadvantaged his main constituency, was impressed with Lewis' "guts" to vote for the bill "because he was under severe pressure from conservatives and Republicans to help defeat the measure." Moreno has been a burr under the saddle of Texas House speakers almost his entire legislative career, and he has yet to vote for the legislator who has won the powerful speaker's chair. Moreno said he does not like the power these lawmakers possess, and he especially was annoyed by House rules changes and what he saw as a grab for even more power by Lewis during the past session. But Moreno has found a new respect for the speaker because of the tie-breaking vote. He even talks about supporting Lewis in 1987, maybe even becoming a member of the speaker's influential "team" and getting a committee chairmanship. "I'm going to talk to him and see if we can change the rules a little bit to pacify me, so I can at least vote for the speaker at least once," Moreno said.

Because of the speaker's vote Please see Thorn, 12A Take a convicted killer who confesses to some 600 murders, an author and a district attorney who doubt those confessions, an investigation against that district attorney and scores of other sub-plots Take them all to an El Paso courtroom, and what develops is a script deep in drama. Adding to the intrigue are the intervention by the state attorney general, a high-profile defense lawyer and El Paso's flamboyant private investigator, Jay Armes. And then there's CBS' Harry Reasoner and the "60 Minutes" team, currently in the process of interviewing the key players for a fall report on the complicated saga. A good part of the Henry Lee Lucas life story will be told if and when Lucas goes on trial on charges he murdered an elderly Lower Valley woman 2V. years ago.

At one time, Lucas confessed to killing Librada Apo-daca in her El Paso home. But he also confessed to hundreds of other murders cases law enforcement agencies quickly closed. But District Attorney Vic Fcazell of Waco, Texas, and Dallas author Hugh Aynesworth uncovered many public and pri- Times illustration bogus. According to a transcript of a Nov. 25 interview he had with Lucas, Aynesworth asked Lucas "if it isn't time pretty soon to stop call a halt to this thing?" Lucas agreed, adding: "I plan on uh, doin' it in court.

When the uh I was thinkin' about when I go to trial down there in Lu uh, whatchacallit, uh, El Paso," according to a 54-page transcript Aynesworth gave to The El Paso Times. But Lucas couldn't wait for the El Paso trial to expose his bogus confessions because he Please see Intrigue, 12A tion went unanswered. But the investigator, Truman Simon, showed the district attorney a long list of murder cases cleared by the Texas Department of Public Safety more than 200. "And it was not possible that Henry Lucas could have committed quite a few of those murders," Feazell said. "In a couple dozen cases, Lucas, according to public records, was in jail at the time of those murders." By last fall, Aynesworth, who co-authored "The Only Living Witness," a book on convicted serial killer Theodore Bundy, had chased Lucas' trail and concluded the confessions were Author's nagging doubts 12A vate records proving Lucas was in jail or working thousands of miles away when several of the slayings to which he confessed were committed.

The validity of Lucas' confessions began to unravel last November after he confessed to two more killings in the Waco area. "Lucas' confessions just didn't make sense," Feazell said. "We had two good suspects in each case." So Feazell assigned one of his investigators to determine Lucas' whereabouts at the time of the Waco slayings.
