AN ABATEMENT OF ITS SEVERITY, As predicted by tho wonther-wise gentlemon who attond to Uncle Sam's Signal Service in tho top-story of the Majur Rtock, the storm hus been followed by n comparativo lull. ‘Thy wind abated at about 3 o'clock yestorday mourning, and, though there has been a brisk breeze since thon, with ocensionnl skurties of snow, tho storm minty, a8 far aa Chicago is concerned, be considered ne past. <Accurding to yesterday's reports, the storm-contro was in Northern Michi- winand moving castward: The cold wenther predicted came duly to hand, and Saturday night was decidedly the chillleat of. tha season, tho thormuraeter marking 35 degreos, while the Insinuating nature of tho wind gave it at least A zero eapnelty in the opinion of those who wera detnined out nt night. At the Siganl-Service office a Trimune reporter met Licut, MeCiellan, who had just reached Chi- cago from on Inspeotion tour of tho luke Siznal Btatluns from Detroit tu this city. Tho Licuten- ant reported that at St. Joe, Mich.,an Saturday a yory heavy gute was blowing, and tho sva was very rough, Tho maximum velocity reached thore was sixty milea un hour, but notwita- standing thore were no roporta of marino dis- aster, . ‘Tho Licutenaut sald that thore was one fact Jn connection with the Slguul Service which thoge Interested in shipping did not soem to ful- ly understand, which: was, that, nso gen- eral rute, Chicago did not. get tho full benolit of provalliag storms, which. alinost always went north, Shipping mon often complained that tho storm-signal waa aut whon thore were | but very slight indications of stormy weather In Chicayo, white at tho sume time a sovore storm was raging furthor north which, if thoy diare- ganied the sigual und put out from harbor, thoy would run into with o falr prospect of disaster. No better oxample of this could be provided than tho difference between tha velocity vf the wind nt Chicago and at Bt. Joo on Saturday. If aehipper hud loft port in Chicago it would have only taken him o-couple of houra’ gall te got into xelxty-mile storm, The storm-signat ina majority of cuses refers to tho weathor which tho mariner is Ukely to meot with up North,—a fuct which tho shippor whe grumblos. because the storm-signal fs out ata time whon Chicago 1s not having a twenty-five or, thirty-mite galo to contend with will do well to remember. ‘The prospect yesturday was forcolder weathor, though duriug the day the tumporature had been romuarkubly even, threo observations re- sulting ina record of 36 deg., and two othors in urecord of 87 dceg.—quite a full from Friday's tomperature of 65 dey, An don of tho forco exerted by such o wind ng hud Just gotton through blowing unn bo very. closely estimutod by the application of aslinple rule, which is: Multiply tho: squaro of the veloolty by 005, and tho result is the pressure in pounds per square foot. ‘This will show that whon the gale on Suturduy reached a volocity ot thirty milosnn hour the prossere per squuro foot was cquul to four and one-half pounds, and, taking the case of 4 big elovator presenting squurcly to the wind 9 surface of 20,000 equure feut, tho force of tha gale it bad to withstund ‘was cqual to Just fort; WITH ALL WANDS, YOUNDENING OF THE DAVID A, WELTS.

The maint topmast was shortor than the fore, evidently the result of nn old brenic, na 2 trek had been fitted upon tho spur, The maingiftopsall was furted. ‘The peak of the foresall only waa visible, plainly Indicating that tho sail; had been reefed previous to tho disnster.; Tho malasail was set to neurly full hight, as wore niso tho ibs. Allof tho anils not furled were elthor aniltortarn, The mnathents of tho vessel were painted waite Instend of n dark color, ashad been reported by Capt, Scott, of the schooner Golden Fieceo on Saturday. From the size and proxim- ity of the spars, Capt, Jowell corieluded that the. eraft was one of about [6 tons burden.

Tho discovery of these spars, and tho fact that-tho topmust just re- ferred to Lore a gilt tall, while no wilt balls wero: attached to the others, convinced Capt. Jewell that two vessels bad been tn collision, that both had sunk close to exch other, and that thelr crews must have perished.
