Although the men were unable to work yesterday or the day before oh' the oyster beds. it is not thought that the storm damaged them severely.

Many of the larger boats are said to be taking otit as high as 150 bttsheis per day. This harvest will probably continue about ten days longer. when the followers of the sea will have to seek other beds. The wind of last night played havoc with the boats along the shore par- ticularly among those anchored near llorions Point. This morning, when the storm bad subsided, nearly a dozen craft, large and small, were found to have dragged their anchors and hud- dled together in a bunch against the dock. A large sloop, without any car‘ go abroad. was forced from her moor- ings and brought up about 30 feet from the dock. In attempting to Jump front one boat to another this morning, Cap. tain Albcrt Geib made a mission and fell into the water. A friend on the dock offered him assist— once. but the. captain refused. Tlirow- ing his pipe to the dock. he said, “Here. look out for my pipe. 1 can get in all right." The name, of the schooner which lies near the dock is the Richard ldull. Hickory liltiff anti the Norwalk Yacht Club escaped a large part of the storm and little damage is reported at either place. At Roton Point the high board fence in the rear of the hotel was blown down and a large tree lit the side of the hostelry succumbed to the force of the gale.

TORRINGTON. Sept. 15.~During the terrific rain and wind storm of last night the creamery connected with the Icho Farm plant, situated between this town and Litchfieltl, was struck by lightning and all its contents were totally destroyed. entailing a loss of about 86,000, which is cover (1 by in- surance.
