THE STORM.

It Was Conferred Off Long Island-
Street Railroads Blockaded-Boats
All Right.
The storm which ragged all night Monday
night, turning into snow at 2 a. m, was
central in eastern Pennsylvania. 1t moved
eastward to the coast and the center was
off Long Island. The heaviest wind re-
ported yesterday was forty eight miles per
hour, off Block Island. The storm moved
north rapidly.
The snow fell here to the depth of about
foot and the snow shovelers were out in
force yesterday. The Fair Haven horse
cars ran doubled up and the University
street branch WAS discontinued for part
of the day. Last evening all the care
were running on the regular twelve
minute schedule. The West Haven cleo
trio road and branches were blocked by
the snow and finally suspended operations
until late in the afternoon. The track
was cleared by an army of shovelers.
Superintendent W. W. Ward said thai
the trouble on the electric road was thai
they were not supplied with the proper
| sweeping apparatus in use on some roads
| An electric pillow was now being gotten gu
that would remedy the defect and proven
a repetition of the trouble. The troubl
was caused by the snow getting on tn
rails, thus preventing ground connection
with the trolley.
All travel over the Morris Cove road wa
shut off during the day after q. m. TIL
steamboats, were only slightly delayed.

The Go.sel Temperance Meettngs.


Another large audience occupied the
City Mission hall last evening, and were
we'll repaid for coming through the storm
to the gospel temperance service led by
Mr.. Murphy. The large platform was well
filed by speakers and singers, and after a
hearty song service with Miss Ruth Spenser
of the city missions at the piano and Pro-
lessor Stevens of Clinton as organist, Mr..
Murphy gave short Bible reading and
Rev. Mr.. Collins offered prayer. A solo
by Mrs. Perry followed, then short ad-
dresses by Rev. Mr.. Kerr and Messrs.
Baldwin, Luddington, Lovejoy, Wrenns
and 81. E. Hart. Mr.. Murphy followed,
holding the close attention of his audience
for over half an hour, and when at the
end of his address he appealed for signers
of the pledge, an unusually large number
came forward to the two tables where Mrs.
Murphy, assisted by other ladies were tax
ing pledges and tying on the blue ribbons.
The meetings this week have included .
great many young men, and scores have
already promised to give up the use of all
Intoxicating drinks by signing the follow
lux pA0ASoS S"@N'

-FRACIs MURPHY.
I, the undersigned, do pledge my word and
honor, God helping me, to abstain from all intox-

and about $50 workman gathered in the
blacksmiths' shop to hear him, and many
of them signed the pledge.

POLICE COMMISSIONERS.

No Vacancies Declared-Six Officers
Promoted-TheMayO to Investigate
the Matter of the Fast Running of
Cars on Church Street.
ALI the members of the board of police
commissioners were present at the meeting
of the board last evening except Commits
sioner Clancy, and owing to the absence
of the latter commissioner no action was
taken in reference to the retirement of Ger
tain officers, and in consequence no ap-
pointments were made. All the business
transacted was of the dull routine nature.
In executive session the board considered
the complaint of large number of citi-
zens that the cars of the New Haven and
West Haven Railroad company were run
ming too fast on Church street, and there
by causing danger to both life and limb
The matter was finally referred to the
mayor to investigate as to whether the
company was complying with the terms of
its contract with the city or not and report
at the next meeting of the board.
President Carlos Smith reported that Su-
perintendent Smith was much improved in
health, and was progressing toward health
as we'll as could be expected. He also stat
ed that a new skin WAS forming over the
old wound and that his attending physi-
clan, DR.. Russell, advised his remaining
indoors until such time as the new skin
had become perfectly formed. 1t was the
opinion of the commissioners present that
the superintendent should conform rigidly
to the advice of his physician.
The semi monthly pay roll of the depart
ment, amounting to $7,270, was approved,
as were also the monthly bills of the de-
partment.
In accordance with the recommendation
of the superintendent the following officers
were promoted: B. ]. Reilly from grade B
to grade A, to date from December l, and
Officers Cooney, Colwell, Ward, Klaiber
and Keenan, from grade E to grade D, the
three former to date from December /,
Officer Keenan, from December 5 and Off

WRECK ON THE SHORE LINE.

A Freight Train Runs Into the 5:O5
Boston Express-The Engineer Was
Probably Fatally Injured-Tra1ns
Delayed.
NEW LONDON, Nov. 29.-[Connecticut
Press Special There was wreck on the
shore line of the Consolidated road six
miles out of this city late this afternoon.
The Boston express which leaves this city
at sos is followed shortly afterward by a
special freight train which carries freight
for the Stonington boat. They run very
close together all the way. About half
mile this side of Noank station the coup
ling between the engines tender and bag
gage car on the express parted. The train
was delayed while repairs were being
made. The fast freight which followed
crashed into the rear of the passenger
train. The dining car had for some rea-
son or other been detached from the main
train and was knocked to pieces, get on fire
and totally consumed. 1t happened that
no one was in the car at the time, although
usually at that hour it is usually full of
people eating supper.
The locomotive of the freight train was
almost wholly demolished. The tender was
thrown on top of the wreck. The car next
to the engine was thrown out twenty feet
into the ditch, and the car following il
telescoped the engine and tender. The
next car to that was thrown disgonally
across the track. The engineer of the train
Frank Niles, of Stonington, staid in the
cab and attempted to reverse the engine
| He was crushed beneath the wreck, anc
will probably die. He was taken to My
site. The fireman was a young man pamet
Charles Palmer. He jumped from the trair
and escaped with few bruises. The wrecl
was due to carelessness in not sending
back fsgman for the freight train.
Both tracks are blocked and it is prob
able trains will be delay ed all night. A
Mystic q freight, express and passenge
trains are delayed, and there are a numbe
of trains due up to midnight. At Pequo
moo this side of the wreck the "Gilt Edge,
the Colonial" and freight train are de
lsyed. The snow has caused considerabl
, inconvenience.

the Japan furnace of the Weld Manufac-
turing company, corner of Water street
and South avenue, exploded, tearing away
the side of the building. Six persons were
in the building at the time, but no one
was seriously hurt. How they escaped is
a miracle. The boiler was a new one, it
being the first time fire had ever been
lighted under it, The shock was felt two
blocks away. The building caught fire
and was consumed. Loss on building $500,
on machinery 81 200; fully covered by in
surance. The building was small one in
the rear of the main factory. The explo-
sion was caused by the ventilating weight
being too heavy.
