There Is another storm collecting fury
in the Northwest. and II is coming di-
rectly his way, but storms are uncertain
In their course just now. 80 Forecaster
Dunn is not able to say whether New
York will have another miniature biz
zard or simply an ordinary snowstorm.
Az yet there Is no precipitation attend
ing the storm, but the winds in the Cen
trail States are increasing In force. and
these Will probably bring snow. The
forecast Ia for fair weather and colder
until tomorrow morning, and warmer
tomorrow afternoon, with Increasing
cloudineas and snow during the night.
The winds are changing from brisk to
nigh northweSterly to brisk to high
southerly, and probably southeasterly for
Tomorrow.
There were light local SHOWS reported
at the Signal Service office from over
York, but elsewhere the weather was
fair. and colder east OF the Mississippi.

The Ice that formed on wires and the
wind played havoc with telegraph wires

done to injure the service. The Western
Union Company reported that n few
wires on Il number OF lines had been
broken, but that there are still enough
wires to do all the business.

lings and Joseph Chamberlain were
the principal speakers at a meet
ing of Liberal-U nionists held last
night. Sir Henry James and Mr.. Col

for granted that the House OF Lords
will aquiesce in the rejection OF their
amendments to the Parish Councils bill,
and added that as far as could be ascer-
tanned the bill would again be returned
to the House OF Commons. or that a con-
ference between representatives of the
two houses would be held to settle the
