Trains ON the Central Delayed.

NEW YORK. dec. 2s.-Oilicials of the
New York Central and Hudson River mil
road report that the present storm is the
worst experienced since the great blizzard.
y popularity of the existing blockade Is
found in the fact that while cast bound
trains in the central part of the state be-
tween Buffalo and Albany arc from seven
to fourteen hours late. there is no trouble
worth speaking of on the division between
Albany and New York. Rochester and
Syracuse have bcCn the chief storm CEN
tcrs during the past q hours. and these
two cities arc said by local railroad Off
Gals to be headquarters for prevailing
troubles
At the train dispatcher office at the
Grand Central depot n reporter was in
formed that all passenger train We're NOV
ing. The operators in charge admitted
that many OF the freight trains had been
reported stalled during the day, but they
emphat!cally denied the rumors that some
of the mail or paper trains had been aban-
doned. The reports received indicate that
in many places snow has drifted until it
has reached n depth of Is or is inches
and the crews sent out have had q severe
struggle with the clements.
West Albany is the headquarters for
snow shovels, snow plows and gangs of
men sent out to clean the tracks. the
mammoth shops of the Central road be-
ing located at that point. 1t has been a
busy day for the railroad men there. many
crews having been dispatched to the west
during the day. From Albany south to
New York there has been very little work
for the snow fighters. not n single pas
senger or freight train being reported as
much as 3 minutes late.

SEA ISLE CITY, n J., Dec. 2s.-The
three masted schooner Rodman Nickerson
went ashore about haf mile south of
the Stone HarbOr life saving station on
the New Jersey coast. One of the crew
was drowned. Those who were afterward
rescued suffered terribly. The men spent
the night in the fierce storm dashed TO the
rigging and were almost exhausted when
aiken off by the life savers
The Nicholson, stone laden, was bound
out from New York. Captain Anthony
Sprague was in command. The gale
caught her well out to sea, and the rolling
and pitching caused her to start her cargo,
and within two hours after the storm
broke the schooner was making water.
Captain Spraguc headed the schooner
for the shore, and his only hope was to
beach her.
At O'Clock in the morning in the very
height OF the storm the vessel struck. She
was well in shore, but owing to the blind
ing sleet the captain and men could not
tell Just where they were until their craft
grounded. The shock caused by striking
the hard sand split the seams more than
ever. and within n few minutes after she
felt ground the schooner sank until her
masts alone showed above water.
Captain Snraguc had ordered every man
into the rigging and was the last to AS
cend. He had not finished lashing him
self before the deck was under water and
The keel resting on the bottom.
Dropped Frozen Into the Sea.
The cook had been at work in the gal
| ley, keeping hot coffee for the men, and
when the schooner struck he was Obliged
| to ascend the rigging in the clothing he
wore in the hot galley. He was soon over
come. and when he let go with his hands
his body slipped from the rope and he fell
| into the water
Half an hour before sunrise the wreck
was sighted by the life savers from
Fathom Beach and Stone Harbor stations.
Both crews rallied with their full appa-
ratus, but could do nothing. The wind
was blowing that the mortar would not
throw the line to the schooner. and the
fierce surf rendered the launching of tho
| lifchOats impossible.
Noon Camo with little change in the sit
uation. Tho life savers and the volunteers
were helpless on the Leach. and the sail
Ors were even mole helpless in their lofty
pcrches. BY O'Clock the wind had shift

attempts were made 10 send the line from
the mortar to the rigging. but 1t was not
/ until eight attempts had been made that
the proicctilc shot over and carried the

Ing OF the misery which comes to those whose
nervous systems have been shattered The great
est sufferers from this condition are women who
nave the care Of households with all their exact
ing duties and great responsibilities. They are
worried by frifes. They are constantly looking
for trouble. They are fre.fui. peevish, easily an-
noyed They have but little appetite and are
restless at night. Life has lost its charms for
them Such . condition is. indeed. most pitisble,
and 1t Is important that the cause should be as
certaineo In order that the remedy may be applied
as speedily as possible. The real reason for ner-
vousness is an impoverished condition OF the
piood. which cannot supply the nerves with
strength. The remedy is found In Hoods Sarsapa-
riila, which puriies, vitalizcs and enriches the
piood' giving it power to build up the broken
down system. Strengthen tho nerves and give
health and vigor to all the organs OF the body.

An Enthusiastic Meeting Held Las,
Night.

A large aud enthusiastic meeting of the
Afro-American Republican League was
held last evening at Californ ia Hall. A
number of Republican municipal candi-
dates we're present and delivered brief ad-
dresses. although the principal speaker of
the evening was Rev. George w. Smith of
Los Angeles. who occupied the greater
part of the evening in reviewing the politi-
cal issues of the day.
After reviewing briefly the platform of
the Republican party, which recognizes
that all men should be free and equal. the
speaker searched out numerous clauses in
the Democratic platform which were far
from being favorable to the cUlored race.
He then recalled the many historical
incidents In which colored men have
played prominent paris and called upon
the race to unite more closely ana cast a
solid vote for the party of their salvation.
In closing the speaker reviewed the
charges of disloyalty to the colored race
which were brought against M. Nj. Estee,
which, he said. were entirely false. the
speech referred TO having been delivered
by jack Gregory and not by Mr.. Estee.
On motion of Mr.. Jamison the recent
action of the league in regulating E. b.
Read was reconsidered, and by unani-
nous vote that gentleman was indorsed.

Easements of the Murphy Building
and tlibernia Bank Flooded.
The urgent necessity of the appointment
of practical engineer to have control of
the sewerage system of the city is becOm-
ing more and more apparent every year.
Through the faulty construction of sew
erS business men IN the lower portions of
the city suffer loss every winter by sew
age pouring into their cellars. An in
stance occurred yesterday morning where
by j. j. OBrieD & Co., corner of Jones
and Market street. have suffered severe
loss by damage to their stock of dry goods
IN their basement store rooms amounting
10 thousands of dollars.
The Jones and McAllister street sewage
flows into the Market-stre sewer at this
corner, and the main sewer runs along
Market and turns down Seventh street.
The heavy dOwDpour yesterday morning
proved that the sewers were totally made
Quate to meet the requirements, and the
result was that the water backed up and
poured into the Easements of the buildings
IN the neighOorh0od. Those of the Muir
ply building and Hibernis Bank were
Hooded to considerable depth.
The bank will only be placed to tempor-
arv Inconvenience, but it is different with
j. j. OBrien & Co.. who not only suffer
considerable inconvenience but severe
loss. If the rainfall had started two
hours earlier than it did, Mr.. O'Brien says
that his stock of 500, 900 in the basement
would not have been worth 100000 cents.
Similar trouble has occurred almost
every year at this point The damage
caused by the heavy storms of two winters
ago stirred up the Street Department, and
last year extensive alterations and repairs
were made in the sewers, so as to be ready
for the next winter. No trouble occurred

dates Last Evening.

The Republicans of the Thirty-third As
sembly District had rally last evening at
Bonita Hall. on Folsom street, near
Twenty-fourth. a large bonfire blazing
on the corner attracted the attention of
the neigh borhood to the fact that there
was a political gathering. The attendance
WAS large and the enthusiasm was un-
bounded.
John Carson called the meeting to order
aud spoke OF the gladness which filled his
soul at seeing such interest taken In the
gathering by the ladies as well as the men.
He only deplored the fact that they could
not vote at the coming election.
Ex Governor Solomon, as the first
speaker of the evening, spoke upon the
issues involved in the campaign as far as
the Republican party was concerned, as
California, in order To be In line with her
Eastern sister States, should roll up a
rousing Republican majority. The speaker
also dwelt upon the tariff question and
the principles OF the Republican party.
Z. 2. Duckworth of Monterey followed
in speech which brought forth applause
from his audience. He lauded Mr.. Estee
