Wires all Down., &c. dc.
New YORK, January G.-Yesterday
morning shortly after 10 o'clock, a rain
storm began which o o turned to sleet
and continued until late in the afternoon.
Everything became iringed with %icicles,
and no such spectacle has been witnessed
here for years before. The trees were
cased in ice locomotion on the sidewalks
became almost impossible, and throughout
the day the streets looked deserted.
At half past n o'clock Geographic com-
munication with points outside of the city
was stopped. The ice froze to the wires
and broke them down. The police and
fire telegraphs throughout the city were
destroyed, and the wires and poles falling
in the streets and sidewalks, the whole Of
New York became isolated so far as
regards communication with the outside
world.
1t will cost $4,000 to repair the police
and fre-alarm wires, and the work cannot
be completed for some time. In the mean
time extraordinary measures have been
taken to insure the prompt transmission OF
fire alarms or other emergencies. Mounted
patrolmen are kept at the station-houses,
and the police and firemen are to work ami
cably together in case of emergency.
No dispatches were received here yeSter-
day, either from West or East. There
never was so complete a wreck Of tele-
graph wires in this city, not even during
the July riots of ten years ago.
Great damage was done to the trees by
the breaking off of limbs from the grea,
weight of ice.
AT nine o'clock last night the high wind
increased to a gale from the southwest
clearing away the dense fog, and this
morning is bright, with falling barometer
All the streets in low situations in this
city, Brooklyn, Jersey City, Williams
burg, Hoboken and other places are badly
flooded.

heporf COntradicted-The Fusion
Legislature.
NEW ORLEANS, January 5.-Careiul
inquiry fails to show that there is any
truth In the statement te~legraphed from
washington, that the Custom-house EN-.
ployees had resigned their seats in the Kel.
logg Legislature. Such designations, it is
believed, would break the quorum in the
Senate. Postmaster Lowell, Surveyor
lngraham, the two Herwigs and Sypher
took part in legislative proceedings TO-DAY.
1t is understood that the Custom-house
members have leave of absence from the
Custom-house during sessions of the Legis-
lature. Pinchback's address, Threatening
to disperse the Fusion Legislature, creates
considerable excitement. 1t is believed
that only Federal troops can prevent the
Lyceum Hall Assembly from meeting.
Important Executive Order-Explana-
non Oh New Orleans Telegram.
WASHINGTON, January 5. = The
President has directed the Secretary of
State to prepare Immediately an executive
order in effect prohibiting persons holding
United States commissions from occupying
office under state authority.
The telegram received here Saturday,
from an official source at New Orleans,
stating that all Custom-house EMPLOYEES
who are members of the Legislature had
resigned, been removed, or suspended, did
not, as seems to have been Inexperienced,
say that they had resigned as members of
the Louisiana Legislature.
Appreciated Trouble i'm New Orleans

WASHINGTON, January ga private
dispatch from New Orleans states that all

that the Conservative or Fusion Legislature
will assemble. A number of prominent
citizens of Louisiana, now in Washington.
apprehending danger of a collision between
the contending political parties, called on
the Acknowledgement to-day and entreated
him to initiate such measures as would
guard against such a result. They were
informed, in reply, that the subject was
now under consideration by the executive
authorities, and that all proper steps would
be taken to preserve the peace.

WASHINGTON. January G.-There is
no doubt of the authenticity of the follow
ing dispatch in all its details. 1t has been
verified in high quarters:
NEW ORLEANS, January 5, 10 P. M.
The announcement has just been made at
the fusion headquarters, apparently by au-
thority, that General Emory has received
instructions from Washington that the
United States troops shall only be used to
preserve the peace that any body of citi-
zens, styling themselves what they may,
have the right to meet peaceably for any
purpose, not unlawful, and that if any at
tempt should be made to dispense such
assemblage they shall be protected.
WAsHINGToN, January 6.-The
Louisiana subcommittee sent the follow
ing telegram to New Orleans to-day
"The President has telegraphed General
Emory not to permit interference with the
peaceable meeting of our Legislature.
Matters will be held in allegiance until a
judicial investigation shall be had. We
counsel great moderation"

1t is said, however, that the Petersburg
road can get no outlet. This is nonsense.
The Fredericksburg Road will make tariffs
and prorate with any connecting line South.
If no arrangement has been come to, it is
because it has not been sought by the
owners of the Petersburg Road, who hope
a much shorter route, if only they can
attain it, to wealth and power through the
legislative confiscation Of other peoples
property than by the slow process of
legitimate railway business.
They have relied upon attacking the
management of other roads. We have
shown that they, themselves, have done
nothing to entitle them to the gratitude of
the public or to an extension of their
power (; and, following them into their in
direct plea that other railway administra-
tons were so oppressive as to make them
our ~saviors, we have shown by opposing
undenied facts to vague generalities, that
those they attack serve the public far better
than they themselves have attempted to

First Degree.
New YORK, January 5.-The argument
in the Stokes trial was concluded at eight
O'Clock last evening, and the case given to
the jury. AT twelve minutes past eleven
the jury came into court, after an absence
of over three hours, and in reply to the
usual ~interrogations, announced that they
had found the prisoner guilty of murder in
the first degree.
There was q marked sensation in the
court at the announcement of the verdict.
The prisoner turned ashy pale, and his
sister wept aloud.
The District Attorney moved that the
sentence Of the law be pronounced, but at
the suggestion of Mr.. Tremaine, Stokes
counsel, the judge deferred passing sentence
until Monday.
1t has transpired that the jury on retir-
ing stood ten for murder in the first degree,
