The heaviest snow storm OF the season visited
Washington this morning, beginning about four
O'clock. When the department clerk had disposed
OF his morning pancakes, and stepped out In the
frosty air to battle his way TO office, he found the
payoments heaped with snow, and the car horses
struggling under the lash against the snowy
blockade. As usual before noon, the fieecy flakes
that hgure so much In poetry turned into driz-
zilng sieet, which Is anything but poetical. The
sleghers were out betmes, and the merry
jingle OF the sleigh-bell greeted the ear
The blockade OF street cars on Pennsylvania ave-
nue. at the 1th street crossing was one OF the Incl
dents or the storm. At one time there were not
less than twenty, all I'm closed lines, on the two
tracks. and the passing by other vehicles and
the cars were packed full to overfiowing and they
couid not pun through the snow with their loads
