shire, Maine and Vermont.
BOSTON, Mass, March 4.-Snow began
falling here early this morning and has
continued all day, accompanied most of
the time by high wind. From twelve to
fourteen inches have fallen, the largest
fall of the winter. According to the sig
nal office the storm has been central in
this neighborhood. but the damage to
wires and delay to travel has not been so
great as in some previous storms.
Trains are running nearly on time.
A collision occurred on the Old
Colony road between Hyde Park and Read
vile this evening between an engine and
snowplough and a freight train, the latter
overtaking and running into the former,
which was creeping along at q snail's pace.
The track was blocked short time The
damage was very slight.
From various parts of New Hampshire,
Maine and Vermont a heavy snowfall is re-
ported, which has drifted badly, blocking
roads and rendering travel almost impossi-
BILE in places. The snowfall is reported as
varying from 10 to 16 inches
At Newport, R. l., the storm lasted
about twentyfour hours and left heavy
coating on the ground, but this afternoon
light rains set in and tonight it is so bad
that the streets are deserted. Electric wires
are heavily loaded with ice and a strong
wind prevails.
Owing to the heavy storm no attempt
was made to float schooner S. Benedict,
ashore on Prudence Isle, but it is now
proposed to do so tomorrow.

LONDON, March 1.-The drawing
room" held by Queen Victoria to-day at
Buckingham palace was notable for the
unusually large and brilliant attendance.
This undoubtedly was due to the presence
at the drawing room of the Empress
Frederick of Germany, and of the desire
upon the part of the courtiers to be pre-
sented at Buckingham palace upon this
occasion as token of sympathy with the
empress after her recent unpleasant e1-

VIENNA, March 4.-SiIty four rural cleo
tons, 30 far as the results are known, have
completed the triumph of the young czechs
and German liberals. The old czech party
is almost annihilated. By coalition of
young czechs and anti-semites powerful
opposition may be formed compelling
Count Won Taafe to seek a majority coali-
ton of German liberals and Poles. Against
two members in the last parliament the
young czechs will probably have thirty in
the new reichsrath. Hungarian papers
claim that the results are adverse to Count

Guilty of NIansIaughtcr.

DOVER, N H., March 4.-The case of
Charles Cross, who pleaded guilty to man
slaughter in killing Frank Liberty at Great
Falls on August 81 came up in the supreme
court at 4 o'clock for a hearing before
Judge Carpenter to show the extent of the
crime. The state witness testified that
Cross threatened Liberty's life if he came
in Cross's place, and went for his
revolver. When Liberty came in he shot
him. Witnesses for defence testified that
Liberty went in for drink, that he said
he wanted no trouble, that Cross met him
in the middle of the floor, ordered him
out and began firing at the floor. Liberty
hit Cross arm and struck the revolver up
so that the bill hit Liberty, who died six
teen hours later. He will be sentenced to-
morrow morning.

Prelfminarfes for Making the Sur

day.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 4.-The In
ter Continental Railway commission met
to-day and arranged the preliminaries for
making survey of the proposed railroad.
William F. Skunk of Pittsburg was Sc
lected as organizing engineer. He was
formerly connected with the Pennsylvania
railroad and surveyed the line of that
railroad over the Allegheny Mountains.
Other civil engineers will be selected to
assist him, and he is also promised the CO.
! operation of local engineers in each of the
| countries through which the proposed road
is to pass. There will be three survey
ing parties, including the military party,
already assigned to Central American
states. The other two parties will be
under the immediate direction of Mr..
Skunk and will work respectively north
and south from a central point in Colon
bis. The principal difficulty anticipated
in the survey is crossing the Andes, in
| Colombia. 1t is estimated that it will
take eighteen months to complete the sur
| veys with the present force as lack offunds

BosToN, Mass, March 4.-This after
noon a kerosene lamp exploded in a room
on the first floor of large wooden build
ing on Center street, West Ro1bury, occu-
pied by the Robinson Dye works. Instant
ly the room was in blaze which commu-
nicated to the other portions of the build

men employed in the building, and these
all escaped without injury, although sew
eral were at work ON the third
and fourth floors. The building
was burned to the ground, only the foun-
dation remaining. In spite of the snow
storm many hundred spectators were at
tracted to the scene and saw the big
building burn. Newellis grocery store
near by was also burned slightly, the roof
catching fire from sparks from the larger
structures. 1t is estimated that the loss
on the Robinson building will reach &c.,

by the F. p. Robinson company and are
said to be the most extensive of their kind
in Massachusetts,, consisting of three large
buildings, all connected. The structures

MUSICAL CONGRESSME

The Fifty-First Goes Out in a Burst OF
Song-Patriotic Airs Sung-The Re.
frafn Taken Up by Newspaper Men.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The house of
representatives of the Fifty-frst congress
went out in a burst of song. Its ending
was remarkable and unprecedented and
scene similar to that which followed the
declaration of the speaker that the Fifty
first congress was adjourned without day,
it is safe to say, never occurred before in
the congress of the United States. The
vocalists of the house on the republican
side of the chamber gathered in body
near the front row of desks, headed by
Mr.. Coleman of Louisiana, Mr.. Yardley of
Pennsylvania, Mr.. Stivars of New York
and Mr.. Wade of Missouri, and as soon as
the house was declared adjourned they
started up the stirring war tune "March-
ing Through Georgia." which was taken up
by the great mass of republican represent
atives, who made the hall ring to the great
delight and edifcation of the galleries
packed full OF people.
A democratic chorus headed by Repre-
sentative elect John j. O'Neil of Missouri
retorted with the 'Doxology" praise God,
in the superior volume of sound from the
press gallery of the house, the reporters
| having taking up the hymn. Republicans
and democrats alike ceased their singing
| to listen to that of their sometime critics
| whose full resonant chorus was very eff
| fective. Messrs. Burrows, Allen of
Michigan, and Coleman with Mr.. Yardley
for precentor struck up 'Our Fatherland"
as the closing notes of the Doxology died
away, and the republicans joining in very
generally the effect was fine. as was the
singing of John Browns Body" which
was taken up Immediately. The occu-
pants of the press gallery for the last num-
bers on the program rendered, Good Bye,
Bye" and Hes jolly Good Fellow"
and it was with regret the immense
throng on the floor and the galleries that
the impromptu musicale came to an end.
The crowd then slowly dispersed.
