eleven o'clock
The ships in the port of New York would not sail for Bermuda tomorrow . I think that the outside world would have had jeering publics amused at little Bermuda hysterical over a fancied attack from the fabled fourth dimension . But by midnight this night , the United States at least was in no mood for jeering . A message came -- reaching us soon after eleven o'clock , Bermuda time -- by cable , through Halifax from Washington . The thing already had passed beyond the scope of the Bermudas . White apparitions were seen on the Atlantic seaboard near Savannah . And then at Charleston ; and throughout the night at several other points farther north .
