New York Can no Longer Laugh at Dakota
The Heavy Fall of Snow Drifted bv q High
Wind.
New YORK, March 12.-The hardest
sno" storm of the year so far is raging
IN New York city. 1t began early this
morning and at O'clock the snow was q
foot or more on the ground. A high
wind caused drifts, which, in the upper
part Of the city, were three and four feet
high. Traffic is almost suspen6ed
Thousands of passengers are blocked on
the elevated roads. The horse cars are
unable to move. Two trains on
the elevated railway collided. One
was heavily loaded and was stuck and the
other ran into the rear of it. The engi-
neer of the rear train was killed and a
number of passengers injured. The en-
barge in telegraphic communication is
almost complete. The stock exchange
unanimously adopted resolution that
all dealings as far as possible be sus-
pended and that deliveries 60 over till
tomorrow. As consequence no stock
or eastern market reports were sent out
this afternoon.

ST0RI INCREASING.

Business at a StandStilI-HOteIS Overlooking
With SuburbaniteS-One Fatality-Many
Frozen Hands and Feet.
New YORK, March II, p. m.--The
storm is increasing and is absolutely IN
precedented. All business has been par
alyzed. At the stock exchange less than
fifteen thousand shares were sold. This
is the smallest day's.sale on record. The
produce markets are all nominal. The
steamers City of Berlin and La Cham
payne arrived out. The weather stopped
the courts. Every street car in New
York, Brooklyn and Jersey City, and
the elevated trains are stopped. Brook
lyn bridge and the ferries are almost
abandoned. The down town hotels are
crammed with suburbanit1es. The ele-
waited roads run three thousa and trains
daily, usually. They were never before
stopped. Wosterners declare that Dakota
never furnished New York's blizzard of
to-day. OF the forty mails due between
four a. m. and noon, only two
arrived by two this afternoon.
News from Europe, where also
tremendous gales and snow storms oc-
curing, is unimportant and uninterest-
ing, mainly relating to the coming obse-
quies of the late emperor. At nine this
evening there was no abatement in the
storm. Frozen ears and feet never were
SO numerous, and the drug stores were
filled with patients all day and evening.
A WOMAN WAS ABSOLUTELY FROZEN TO
DEATH
tonight at the corner of Broadway and
Fulton streets, popularity supposed to be
the busiest corner on the earth. In hun
dreds of streets loaded wagons were
abandoned and the horses taken to
the nearest stables. The wind has
blown the snow into immense drifts.
Countless accidents occurred from slip
ping. The Astor house alone turned
away three hundred would-be guests, and
other hotels have had similar expert
ences.
QTen o'cIock-New York is absolutely
snow bound. The Oldest persons never
saw its equal. Not one train has been
despatched by either the Erie or Central
today-something unprecedented. Tele-
grams from distances of two hundred
miles have the same story to tell namely:
{" It is the worst storm ever known here"
Police authorities say the storm has
not been equalled since 1855. Most of
the police telegraph wires were broken
down early in the morning and the police
men were obliged to tramp many miles,
carrying important dispatches.

THE PARIS EXPOSITION.

The House Joint Resolution Accepting the
Invitation Amended and Accepted by the
Senate Committee.
WASHINGTON, March THE joint reso
luton passed by the house accepting the
invitation to take part III the 1nterna
tional exposition OF Paris will be re-
ported favorably, with amendments from
the senate committee on foreign rela
tions. The committee struck from the
resolution a provision directing the com
missioner Of agriculture to secure if pos
sible, as part of the exposition, com
petitive inspection of the pork
products of the United States and
Europe. It also eliminated the
provision authorizing the commissioner
to prepare for the distribution at the ex-
position of statement printed IN En-
glish, French and German, descriptive of
swine raising in the United States, to-
gether with such information as he may
possess as to the relative wholesomeness
of pork raised here and in other countries
The appropriation to defray the expenses
of representation at the exposition is in
creased from 100000 to 100000. The
clause authorizing the president to assign
one or more of the public vessels to
trans port to and from France free of cost
such articles as may be offered for exhi-
bition by citizens of the United States is
stricken out, as is also the provision au-
thorizing the appointment of an honor
ary commissioner from each of the
states.

Startling Discoveries Of InhUman Treatment
of COnvicts in an Arkansas Coal Mine.
ST.. LOUIS, March 12.-It is reported
that startling developments have been
brought to light at Coal Hill, one of the
mining towns where the mines are worked
by convict labor, near Eft. Smith, Ark.
A negro convict by the name of Williams
was logged to death, and further inquiry
developed the fact that Nose Harvey,
white man, aged 35 years,
has been kicked to death by a
fellow convict who had been edged on to
the desperate deed by Warden Grafford,
and it was learned he was in the habit of
making the prisoners fight. The body of
Mark Elder was exhumed and the bruises
and gashes on the body indicated a vic .
lent death. 1t has also developed that a
prisoner by the name of Hummel was
tied TO a post in the mines last summer
and beaten to death. A the investiga
ton continues more horrible details are
revealed, and the citizens of Coal Hill are
much excited and threaten to hang Graf
ford, and tear down the prison barracks.

The Court Order for Them to Carry Burling-
ton Freight Considered Ridiculous.
CHICAGO, March, 10-Rosweu Miller,
general manager of the Milwaukee 81 st.
Paul road, when asked to-day to give his
views as to the position of outside roads
towards the Burlington, said: sit seems
to me to be ridiculous for q court to order
a road to handle Burlington freight when
it is not in condition to obey the order.
How can the st. Paul haul Burlington
cars when the engineers refuse
to work? Discharge them and
get men that will? That's all very well,
but suppose We did discharge some CT
our engineers, would We be in better po-
sition or the public be in better position,
to stop our road altogether. 1 could stop
the st. Paul road to-day, but I don't pro
pose to do it, because it would only result
in injury to public. The st. Paul is not
responsible for the present situation Of

Encouraging Pledges Given at Meeting of
Strikers.
KANSAS JITY, March 10.-A meeting Of
the brotherhood of locomotive engineers
and firemen was held this afternoon. An
associated press reporter was allowed to
attend and report. The principal speaker
was Grand Master Wilkinson of the
brotherhood of brakemen, who assured
the strikers that individually and collect
lively the brakemen were with them. He
was sorry they were not brought directly
into the struggle at the start. The
brakemen knew that the engineers now
employed by the B. %. are Incompetent.
The Brotherhood men will refuse to aid
the Burlington company in manning the
engines nnder any circumstances. In the
meeting were representatives from the
Fort Scott road, Kansas City, Wyandotte
and Northwestern road, Missouri Pacific
and others. All reported their Hlen ready
to strike if necessary for the success of
those on the Burlington. The Wyandotte
men to day refused to move six cars of

CAUSE OF THE PHENOMENA.

Two Storms IDtersect-One Central Along the
COsat the Other in the Washington
Sets Terrific Dose.
WARRINGTON, March 1.-THE storm
that visited Washington yesterday was
one of the most remarkable known for
years, in fact the capital seemed to have
teen the center of miniature
cyclone that brought with it
binding succession of rain.
snow, wind and cod. In the early hours
of the day the cutters ran high, and in
many low places the sewers were blocked,
thus flooding the streets. The heavy rain
continued until about o'clock in the af-
ternoon, when it turned to a binding
SHOW, which stuck to everything touched
ard turned to ice. AS night fell the
heavily laden telegraph wires began to
come down and in many places the streets
were bIockaded by them. The police
wires were out of order, and to add
to the discomforts of the night
the electric lights began to fail.
By midnight the city was al
most in darkness save for the feeble
gas gets. At the signal Office to-day it
was learned the storm was the result of
the splitting of storm trough that on
the day before yesterday extended south
from Michigan. Saturday night it divid-
ed, forming two storm centers, one
over lake Erie and enc in Georgia. The
southern center then began climbing up
the coast, striking Washington yesterday
morning. The center itself did rot reach
here until about three O'Clock in the af-
ternoon. This took until nearly midnight
to pass. The total rain fall amounted to
IA inches.
All railroads are blockaded and Wash.
inQton has been almost completely iso-
lated since 7 o'clock Sunday evening.
The morning and evening papers of to-
day appeared without Geographic infor-
nation.

ANOTHER STRIKE.

Il Will he Inaugurated at Noon To-Day.
DENvER, Col, March 10.-The striking
engineers held secret meeting in their
hail this afternoon on conclusion of
which notice was issued to the officials of
the Denver, Utah and Pacific that all
their engieeers and fremen would go out
at noon tomorrow. This road is the
narrow gauge running from Denver to
Lyons and is CONTROL by the Burlington
by lease, and is used by the latter as a
feeder to one of the richest coal districts
in the state. Quite number of Burling-
ton cars are standing at the Rio Grsnde
yards billed for California points, all the
roads centering here refusing to handle
them. The situation on the main line of
the Burlington is unchanged.

Engineers on the Manitoba Refuse to Handle
Burlington Cars.

MINNEAPOLIS, March 8. -Heretofore the
Burlington & Northern switching in this
city has been done by the Manitoba road,
which furnishes the Burlington.its termin-
al facilities here. This morning the en-
gineers on the Manitoba road refused to
handle any Burlington cars whatever.
The Burlington j. Northern cars were
side tracked everywhere and the North
ern is unable to get any freight in here.
Her passenger trains are hauled here
from st. Paul by its own engines. The
Manitoba officials have taken no action,
and it is not thought they will make any
attempt to enforce the handling of the
Burlington cars.
