It was | called Hole-in-the-Wall because the | mea, had pierced a large arch through the rock. Pilot guides say the rock is com- | pletely covered at high water and | it uncovers one foot at low water. | During bad weather the sea breaks | over it and in fine weather it is in- | dicated by ripples. Two Are Drowned Philadelphia, Aug. 13 (®) — Two | men were drowned and nearly 100 other persons were rescued during the northeast storm which abated | carly today after lashing the coa trom Virginia Capes to Sandy Hook. The men drowned were Frank Godfrey, Philadelphia, chief engineer of the tug Radiant, and an unidenti- fled sailor, who were swept away when the tug sank in Delaware Bay, near Odessa, Del, yesterday. Seven members of the crew and a passenger were rescued after battling with the waves for some time. The British tramp steamer Athel- beach which was blown aground off | Ship John Light at the Delaware | Capes. was floated today with the high tide and the assistance of two tugs. Barges Are Sunk Reports from the Delaware break- water told of the sinking and aban- doning of barges in the raging storm. The coal laden barge Irwin, which | was being towed by the tug Prudence | from Norfolk to New York with two other barges, sank off Sea Isle City, N. J.. and her crew was taken aboard the Prudence. The men were land- ed here today, and one of them was taken to a hospital with a broken leg. The Prudence abandoned the | bharge Horace Alyn with 12 feet of water in her hold after taking off her crew but safely brought to port the | third barge, the Winso The tug T. J. llooper, abandoned two of her three barges off Hereford | Inlet, N. and sought shelter at | the Delaware breakwater. Today the tug went out to pick them up. The barges were the Mahant and €mith and Perry No. 2. They were in ball The third barge, which was brought to the breakwater, is the E. R. Haggott. It is still heie and will undergo repair 70 Mile Gale Along the Maryland coast the wind reached a velocity of 70 miles an hour but it diminished in in-| tensity as it swept northward. The lighest wind velocity reported along the New Jersey coast was 45 miles an hour. The gale was accompanied by tor- | rential rains in certain sections, 8 inches falling from 8 a. m. Saturday morning to 8 p. m. Sunday night in Washington. Bridges were washed out and crops heavily damaged in Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, New | Jersey and Pennsylvania The Dan river in rginia was out of its banks in places and the Poto- mac river neared flood stage as its tributaries poured into it the ac- cumulated waters of the storm.

The police department advised residents to close their homes tightly. During the night a stiff breeze sprang up in Havana, blowing from the southwest. Waters of the Gulf of Mexico, usually placid at this time of the year, were disturbed. Some of the larger combers were breaking over the Malecon seawall.

Whether or not Havana was to receive a visitation similar to that of 1926, when hurricanes took a number of lives did much property damage, was not certain.
