Furious storms Work Havoc All over tho
Fnr East. fd9f5

NRc EnBts
new YonK, Jan. &c. Yesterdays storm
wfs by far the worst that the telegraph
companies here ever had to deal with. An
idea OF the wreckage may be gathered from
the fact that out OF 1900 wires running into
this city the Western Union had but three
wires working this morning. The others,
with many Of the poles, lilo beside the rail-
way tracks, across fields and In trees. The
Postal Telegraph company had not one
wire working out from ths city, while
tho Metropolitan Telegraph and Telephone
company estimated that 300 of its
wires wero inid low. the total damage
to the companies named will not be far
from half a million. Two weeks OF mr.
ceasinR effort will be required to get the
wires back into the condition which existed
before the storm. In New York city proper
the number OF wires down WIS roughly es-
timatcd at 4,50O, and the poles down at 25O.
In addition to the forest OF poles strewn
about the streets rs many more were hang
ing ~ dangerous condition. Immense
gangs Of men were busy all day removing
snow and wreck. 1t is impossible to
report any incoming vessels from Highlands
or Sandy Hook, as not only are wires down,
but heavy veil Of mist hangs over the
bay. The steamships Bretagne and Au-
rania came in this morning encrusted in
snow and ice. They were due yesterday.
but owing to the severity Of the storm were
compelled to slacken speed. As far as
could be seen from the barge office to-day
the bay was strewn with vessels with their
rigging and canvas coated with ice.
The damage done to the telegraph and
telephone service in Brooklyn is estimated
at $150,000. The Jersey City fire alarm
system was rendered useless. The New
York stock exchange was completely cut
Oft from all quarters but London and bear
traders had great fun in hammering every
thing in sight.
Advices from Sea Girt, Asbury park,
Long Branch and other points report great
damage along the Jersey coast. Surf cut
into the bluff and beach at many points.
Houses were unroofed and all wires blown
down. AS far as can be learned no vessels
are ashore, although several have been seen
in distress outside. At ten o'clock tonight
the Western Union reported fifteen wires
to the west, gain of twelve since morning.
There is no communication yet with Phil
adelphia, Washington or southern points.

Western Traffic Association.

CHICAGO, Jan. 26.-The meeting of the
special committee of the Transcontinental
association which was to have been held
here this morning was postponed owing to
the absence of some of the members. This
leaves the field open for tho meeting of the
Western Traffic association, and they arc
in session. 1t will probably take several
DAYS to complete the work of establishing
territorial division of the new association
and agreeing upon the percentages of the
traffic to be allowed each roud at competi-
tive Missouri river points.

Boston, Jan. 26.--The storm in this city

firemen patrolled the city all night. Tele-

YEAS.

There was much conf 1sion and i'll feeling
in relation to pairs. Daniel said he was
paired with Squire, but as he was informed
by the senator from Nevada (Stewart) that
Stanford was in favor of proceeding with
business he would transfer Squire's pair to
Stanford and would himself vote. Aldrich
objected and finally the pairs stood as fol-
lows: Pierce and Brown, Plumb and Glib
son, Pettigrew and Pasco Squire and Dam
iel, Shoup and Colquitt. Sanders and Ingalls,,
Chandler and Blodgett, Moody and Hearst,
Higgins and voorhees,; Stanford stands
not paired. .-"he result was announced,
yeas thirty-four. nays thirty five. The an
nouncement was greeted with applause on
the democratic side and in the galleries.
A vote was then taken ON VOL
tionment bill and it was carried
by like vote, yeas thirty-fve, nays thirty
four. The reading of the bill and repofs
continued until three o'clock and the bill
was then laid aside till tomorrow. The
next question was on Gorman's motion to
amend the journal of Tuesday last, which
was agreed to without dissent, and the
journals of Tuesday and Wednesday were
approved. Morning business was then in
order. The memorials of the idaho legis-
subject of the persecution of the Jews in
Russia, and against the reduction of duty
on lead and lead ores; also large number
of petitions from western states for and
against the Conger lard bill and Iorrey
bankruptcy bill. Among the pension bills
reported and placed on the calendar was
one from Mrs. Mary Ann Dohertv. the bill
for whose relief was vetoed by Cleveland
two years ago. The army appropriation
bill was reported and Dolph Offered q reso-
luton. which went ever. instructing the
committee on Judiciary to report as to this
power of a minority of the senate to COM
pei the attendance of alsentees. Blair
moved to proceed to the COZ sideraton of
counts of laborers and others under the
eight-Eour law. Pending action the senate
adjourned.
In the house the journal was finally ap-
proved after a long wrangle. The yeas and
nays were ordered on tho motion that tho
house go into committee of the whole on
the navy appropriation bill, but the call of
the roll was interrupted by the information,
given by Rodgers, of Arkansas, that the
force bill had been defeated i'll the senats.
Then the democrats gave cheer after cheer.

Not Much Improve.l.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 26.-The telegraph
situation in this state is not much improved
over that of last night. The storm was par
ticularly destructive in the section of coun-
try between Philadelphia and Harrisburg.
Many telegraph poles are down or blown
out OF position. Very few trains can be run
without wires, and these at q great risk.

Moody Losing Ground.

PIERRE, S. D., Jan. 26.-Two ballots were
taken for senator to-day and Moody lost
two votes. The house had lengthy ses-
sion this evening, fusionists trying to seat
the other four contestants from Lawrence
county. Blnke, independent, was seated
in place of Fowler, republican, and the
house adiou ned. The opinion prevails
that Moody is defeated and that it ia likely
that Gov. Miller or Senator Melville will
be taken up. The republicans are greatly
depressed over the unseating of Fowler,
and it looks us if the fusionists will unseat
others.

cursion of Livingston people to Bozeman

count of the Bozeman, petition sent to
Congressman Carter on the Cooke City

abandoned.

Much Damage Along the Coast.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 26.-The snow fall
was heavy this morning and number of
small freight wrecks are reported. The
damage done to property by the storm is
large. Throughout New Jersey trains were
obliged to feel their way. as the telegraph
poles and wires were all down. It will take
days to repair the damage. The mails are
from one to ten hours late. The greatest
delay and damage is near the coast.
