The Storm Elsewhere.

The disastrous effects of the great storm
have been widespread, though confined for
the greater part to the States bordering on
the Atlantic coast. The storm did not extend
west of Buffalo, n. Y, and the trains west
ward continued running as usual. Within the
area covered by the nearest approach to a
blizzard the North Atlantic States have ex-
perlenced for very many years the ruin
and dissolution which resulted was
fearful. The telegraph wires have
been thrown down; the railroads
have been compelled to cease operations:
trains filed with passengers have been
stopped, in many cases far from stations or
any place where supplies could be obtained;
stock I'm trdnsitM on the cars has been frozen
TO death; the country roads have been
so blocked as to render travel upon them inn
pOsSible in the various towns and villages
the schools and many of the public
buildings have been closed, and a general
prostratiOn of business has resulted
At Albany the storm ragged with great fury
and the Legislature was compelled to ad journ
without quorum, many of the legislators
being snow-bound at their homes
Advices from Pittsburg, Harrisburg Brad
ford. Carbonate and other points in Penn
sylvania stated that the storm was the worst
in many years and that the business of the
railroads was completely paralyzed
All Eastern and Southern New York was
buried under huge drifts of snow, and bust
ness was practically suspended In and
about Boston the storm was comparativelv
light, and travel was not seriously impeded
Washington, d. c., was cut off from the
rest OF the world for two days many teIe-
graph poles and wires having blown down

The Day After the Storm.

The day after the storm New York City
was completely isolated from the rest OF the
world. Business was at stand still.
The greatest precautions were taken to
prevent CONGREGATIONS, the fremen and
entire reserve police force patrolling the
business sections all day and night
One-third of New York spilot-boat feet lay
wrecked along the shores of the harbor and
lower bay, and serious fears were en-
tertained for the fate of fifteen other
st2nch boats that were last heard
OF cruising off the coast. The
first news that came OF the mis-
h2ps to the pilots was brought by the tug
boats Zouave and Richards when they de
posted their load of fourteen castaway pilots
at Stapleton They were brought from

sunk siran.iei in the Horseshoe. Not
long afterward came the news of three pilot
boats wrecked at Bay Ridge and another at
Fort w adsworth-in all nine vessels The
crews hoated ashore on huge blocks of ice
Several prominent citizens became lost IN the
snow drifts and persisted.
- The appearance Of the city after the storm
in the early morning was picturesque spec
tacle never to be forgotten The streets
were checked with ice and snow, varying in
depth from two to fifteen feet. Narrow
thoroughfares were blockaded COM
pletely for all kinds of vehicles.
Buildings were ornamented in fantastic
style with deposits of, snow and festoonS OF
ice. Signs were obhterated and doorways
were hidden behind enormous drifts. On
some OF The cross streets there were
and mountainous ridges Of snow extend
ed along the curbs like buwarks. The parks
were literally buried. and broken trees and
shrubs scattered over the white desert were
silent but eloquent testimonials of the gale.
MOI surface car track could
be seen, and only the long
blocks of buildings marked the chan
nels of travel The elevated railroad struct-
ure was the most unsightly object above
ground. Many hats and caps blown from
pedestrians heads and not recovered lodged
In out-of-the-way places. Broken windows,
wrecked signs and awnings, and abandoned
snow-bound cars and wagons were conspicu-
Gus monuments everywhere.
The river fronts were interesting points TO
study marine pictures and arctic scenes The
East Biver was gorged with ice from shore TO
shore below the Brooklyn Bridge and people
later crossed on the solid foes. The North
River was open, but filled with enormous
cakes of ice. Many people crossed from city
to city on the ice during the morning The
general description of New York by day
light would also answer for Brooklyn and
Jersey City.
In the height of the great storm the roofs
Of block of five tenement houses in Brook
yn were blown away, and several children
were seriously hurt.
