SummaryResumen

A dispatch from Puerto Plata dated August 9 reports that a hurricane had swept the north coast since the previous night and was increasing in violence, with the destruction expected to be considerable. Reports reaching Washington said the West Indies storm had moved out to sea north of Puerto Rico, and that the cruiser New-Orleans, which was at San Domingo, had put to sea because it would have been extremely hazardous to ride out a hurricane in that open roadstead.

Un despacho de Puerto Plata fechado el 9 de agosto informa que un huracán había azotado la costa norte desde la noche anterior y aumentaba en violencia, y se esperaba que la destrucción fuera considerable. Los informes que llegaban a Washington decían que la tormenta de las Antillas se había desplazado al mar al norte de Puerto Rico, y que el crucero New-Orleans, que estaba en Santo Domingo, se había hecho a la mar porque habría sido extremadamente peligroso capear un huracán en aquella rada abierta.
