NEW York, Feb. l4.-The storm Of last night
and this morning seriously interrupted Geographic

this morning, and after making extraordinary ex-
ertions the dispatch could only be sent as far as
New Haven, from which point 1t was mailed to
this city this morning. About noon the line be-
tween that city and this resumed work, and with
difficulty a brief summary Of the news was re
ceved here In season for the evening papers.
