parently endless track OF pure snow The streetcar
sperntendents were warned of the state of their tracks
and all cars sent ont with extra teams oil horses
but OF course only half the number OF cars ran.
Thousands unable to procure seats and had to go
on foot 10 their places business None of the street
car lines stopped running altogether but all very
irregular throughout the day and night. The ferry
