Winds and Snow.
A heavy blizzard is nov raging throughout
the northwest and its violence is still undated.
In st. Paul yesterday a high wind accompanied
by fall Of snow made it very uncomfortable
for pedestrians.
Wires are Frustrated and trains are delay ed.
The cold wave has acted strangely as at 8
o'clock yesterday morning it was 80 below zero
at Helena and at Missouls, 100 miles north of
there, it was 10 above at the same time.
At Helena there was high wind from the
west and another ct Missoula from the east.
In Duluth it was below, Winnipeg, 10, and
jamestown, 8, while at Fergus Falls. Grand
Forks and Fargo il was fully 90 degrees warmer.
with high winds from the different points in
each of these places. The mercury is now fall
ing in most places.
The snowstorm which began last Thursday
night and has continued with more or less
severity ever since has a. last developed into
the nearest approach to a blizzard ever known
on the coast. In Seattle there are sixteen
inches of snow on the level and n strong wind
is piling it in huge drifts in all unprotected
spots. At Chilewach and Matasqui Monday
night the thermometer went down to five below
zero. At Mt Vernon. Wash, the temperature
stands one above Zero the coolest ever known.

LEFT THE SOUTHERNERS.

Mr.. John s. Wise Finds the Society OF the
Lost Cause Defenders Uncongenial.
Mr.. John Sargent Wise, the well-known law
Yer and orator of New York city. has resigned
from the Southern Society Of New York. His
resignation is the subject of conversation
among southern men wherever they meet
The cause was an episode in the club house
some time ago. Mr.. Wise entered the house
one day with friend. 1t was not long after
the heat of the campaign and that fusillade Of
Cooper Union speeches from prominent ora
tors of both sides. Mr.. Wise had been one of
the orators. Southern democrats had, it is
said. objected to the analogy made by Mr.. Wise
between the democratic platform of today upon
the tariff and the confederate constitution of
war times.
1lr. Wilton Randolph, Virginian, was one
of them. SO when Mr.. Wise came in with his
friend one day he met Mr.. Wilton Randolph in
the hall. Mr.. Wise introduced his friend
Said Mr.. Wilton Randolph:
'Did you make that speech in Cooper Union
last night?''
81 did"
Then don't care to shake hands with YOU
or your FRIEND" was the reply of Mr.. Ran
dolph.
Mr.. Wise expressed his indifference in a
down south" way, and the matter for the
nonce ended. 1t came up, however, before the
house COMMITTEES, and as a consequence Mr..
Wise later handed in his resignation
Mr.. Wise and Mr.. Randolph represent two of
the most distinguished of Virginia families, the
one being q son of the late Henry A. Wise, tho
other being . hneal descendant Of Thomas
Jefferson.

CALLAN IN LOWELL.
The Released Dynamiter Paints Dark
Picture of Prison Life.

The Released Dynamiter Paints q Dark
Picture of Prison Life.
Thomas Callan of Lowell, Mass, who was
sentenced in London five years ago to fifteen
years confinement as an alleged dynamiter,
reached home yesterday morning. As previ-
ously announced, he was released on q ticket
Of leave. The release was made without any
previous notice and without any reason being
given him.
Callan is not much broken in health, but
looks twenty wears older than when sentenced.
He has been confined in Chatham and Portland
prisons. He says that the prison methods are
driving the alleged dynamiters out of their rea-
son. They are not allowed to speak and solitary
confinement is imposed if the men are even Gus
pected Of whispering.
Calan says that DR.. Gallagher of Brooklyn,
who was a fellow prisoner is insane. but the
officials say he is shamTing. Gallagher, accord
ing to Callan, is in the infrmary most of the
time and cannot last long.
One OF the other dynamiters. Callan saws, has
become driveling idiot. Sometimes he breaks
out in wild laughter and for this is punished by
solitary confinement in dark, cold cell in
chains for from two to five DAYS.
Callan ia fifty-two years of age and unmar-
RED and is n veteran of the war. There was q
large crowd at the depo. to meet him.
THE OLD NALISE WITH HIM.
Callan told the story OF his trial and impris-
onment last night to a crowd of friends On
the floor beside him was an old yellow valise,
! looking as though it had seen considerable
service. That, Callan said, was tie valise In
which the paper coverings of dynamite were
found, on the evidence OF which he was con-
victed.
Callan was in Chatham prison four years and
three months. The first nine months, he said,
was the probation Noriod, during which ne was
in almost solitary confinement, and was kept at
work sewing mail bags and such work.
During this time Callan was punished for try
ing to carry on correspondence. This kept
him back month in getting into his class
on the public works.
Last May all the prisoners at Chatham were
transferred to Portland prison.
Cellan says that his release was as unexpected
As his arrest. He did not know whether the
liberals had been working for him or not. On
Friday, January 20. he was told by the prison
officials that he would have to go to Norwood
Scrubs. London. and he was taken there that
morning. They did not tell him that ne was
| free until Saturday afternoon, when he was
| given a suit of clothes, his old valise, $50 in
money and ticket to New York.
| The inspector of Portland prison accom-
| panied him all the time and saw him on board
! the steamer.
| CONDITIONAL PARDON.
CGllan's pardon is a conditional one. If he
should return to England, and is convicted of
the slightest offense, he can at the pleasure OF
the queen be compelled to serve out the re-
! naming years of his sentence. The pardon,
which is signed by H. II. Asquith, the English
home secretary and the chairman Of the prison
! board, was issued January 10, 1898.
