On the 1st October pressure commenced to give way again in Luzon and on the 2nd typhoon XVII was evidently approaching the island, in about 15° latitude, from the ESE. At Bolinao they had a strong NW breeze at 6 p. with the barometer falling fast. During the night a furious gale from NW accompanied by rain prevailed at this station and at 6 a. on the 3rd the barometer had fallen to 29.16 with a gale from NE. At 8 a. the mercury rose to 29.25 and the wind veered to SE of force 6 and at 10 a. to S. of force 7 with the barometer reading 29.45 at the latter hour. The centre there- fore appears to have passed almost over or at a very short distance to the South of the telegraph
