Hurricane Bonnie, a Category 3 storm with winds near 115 mph, moves from the Bahamas toward the U S southeast coast. Residents from Florida to North Carolina are warned to stay alert as rip tides claim two lives and rescues rise along beaches in North Carolina and New Jersey.

Union head unhappy with settlement may resign
WALKERSVILLE Local president Jesse Williams, 46, says he will likely resign this week as Local 133 president over a disputed settlement with Rotorex. He claims he was excluded from settlement talks, not fully informed about the agreement with the International Union of Electronic, Electrical, Salaried, Machine and Furniture Workers, and unhappy with how the local vote was conducted at the Holiday Inn near Francis Scott Key Mall. Nonmembers and relatives were present during the voice vote, according to witnesses. Williams began working at Rotorex in 1974.
