Show Suffers Little Harm. BROWNSVILLE, Texas, Sept. 15. (Via Army Radio to the Associated Press.) Brownsville suffered no material damage from the high winds that accompanied the tropical hurricane that touched the Texas coast early Sunday. The hurricane apparently did not hit the lower coast country. The rainfall here was 4.75 inches. There have been no trains into Brownsville from the north since Sunday noon. Efforts Ef-forts are being made to communicate with Raymondville, in Cameron county, where it is feared the winds were the heaviest. High westerly winds, which attained a velocity of from forty to fifty miles an 1 hour, swept the lower Rio Grande valley, 1 causing some damage to light frame buildings, but the hurricane proper, weather men here believe, curved out into I the gulf again when it reached the coast. |
