U. S. TRANSPORT " THOMAS" IN A GREAT TYPRÓON.
Out of a terrific typhopú that was encounter- ed on the night of October 2gth the tran.port Thomas emerged effously damaged, and with all bande glad that their lives had been spared, It was the worst orm ever experienced by the big troopship. Upon leaving Nagasaki for Honolulu g October 17th the weather was good, and was not until the evening of October 5th, that the conditions began to changes At to o'clock that night a typhoon came howling along and worked up a rough sea,throwing the Tomas about with great violence. She was light, notwithstanding the large number of people on board, and was in vor condition to passthrough a storm of such magnitude.
After being buffeted about by the growing waves for an hour or two, the Thomas was track a terrific blow by a mountainous wave by the starbonid/quaster with such force that afterhoure enclosing the tavatory was rried bodily away, with all its contents, not board or printion of the bath tubs or wash- gatands being left after the water receded. The same wave threw the big steamer on her beam andi, shifting 200 tons of coal in the bunkers, with the result that the Thomas could not right berseli for nearly half a minute. One of the tramen was covered by the sliding cool, and was re-cued by his fellows with difficulty. On the upper decks great excitement resulied, for the ronting waves were pounding against the staterooms, and in all the bathrooms the porcelain tubs and washstands had been torn from their fastenings by the great lurching of the vessel, while in the dining saloon the glasses and other ware not securely fastened were being burled against the sides of the transport with a loud noise. The heavy side. board, torn from its fastenings, was thrown balf way across the saloon.
STEWARD QUIETS PASSENGERS. Throughout this commotion the passengers were gathering in the saloon and the lower staterooms, wild with fright. Chief Steward William Herbert had-summoned all his men at the first sign of alarm, and all of them ware kept busy quieting the fears the men and women who had come below. The chief steward did such yeoman service in this and other respects during the excitement that he was subsequently given a testimonial signed by all the passengers. Only one woman
• passenger remained on the upper deck through- out the storm. She was Mrs. D. E. Holly, wife of Captain Holly, who bravely locked her room and declared that she, would stick to the ship in spite of the elements. All the others took refuge below.
. On the bridge, durin the life of the typhoon, Captain Buford and Chief Officer Hal} remained to direct the mauvres of the Thomas. They suffered from the pitching and rolling of the vessel and the wash of the seas that mounted high above the bridge, but had the satisfaction of bringing the big steamer out into good weather at midnight. Down below in charge of the engines was Chief Engineer 1. F. Handley. Passengers, and officers of the Thomas speak in praise of his coolness during the storm, when it appeared almost certain that dišav'er would result from the great typhoon,
IN BATTERED CONDITION.
When she emerged from the storm the Thomas was in a very much battered condition. Besides the loss of the soldiers' lavatory on the starboard quarter, both of the steam launches had been hurled from their skids and smashed, and a section of the iron railing on the alter port side had been wrenched away. A member of the crew hurled through an open hatch, falling two decks below and alighting op-a quarter of beet, and. es aping with only a spraloed wrist. Į. ). Hall of the steward's department bad the arteries of his wrist out by being thrown against iron work, and J. J. "O'Loughlen, a clerk of the quartermaster's department, was thrown from a chair and across a room, the fall straining his right arm and disabling him for days, Others on board were thrown about violently by 'be storm, and number were slightly 'hurt. The damage to the Thomas, it is estimated, will amount to £15,000 (gold).—Ex.
