THE ANGRY ATLANTIC
AQUITANIA BUFFETED. WAVES MOUNTAIN HIGH. (Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright.) NEW YORK, January 26. The Aquitania has arrived. She was delayed for two days by the worst weather in the commander’s memory. Strong gales whipped the sea into mountainous waves, which broke the windows in the upper deck portholes and deck equipment. The waves once dashed against the captain’s bridge, 70ft above the water-line, with such impact that the windows were broken and the officers within were drenched. Captain Dittle said it was the worst weather he had ever experienced.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
