MEMPHIS, Feb. 25-Another great
snow storm has been raging IN the
Mississippi valley today and tonight.
The ground is covered with snow from
| foot to IA inches on level. Such a
thing as q snow pillow is unknown in
this latitude and consequently traffic
is almost suspended
The snow storm was preceded by
sleet, which Frustrated the telegraph
wires, and reports of damage to the
early vegetables and fruit crops in the
outlying districts are comingin slowly,
but every dispatch brings news Of
disaster to the farmers and fruit grow
ers. The peach crop will prove total
loss, owing to the fact that the trees
were just beginning to bloom, but the
apple trees stood the blizzard, remark
ably we'll Figs, dates and pears were
killed outright.
