No Wire Communication With the
Outside World.
Never in their history have the telegraph
and telephone services in this city been SO
badly crippled as they were last night ard
this morning as the result of the terrific
wind storm Of last night. A Star reporter
visited the offices of the Western Union
and Postal Telegraph companies and the
Chesapeake and Ohio Telephone Company
about noon today and was informed In each
instance that the national capital was COM
pletely and effectually cut of from all wire
connections with the outside world in every
direction, north. east, south and west.
None Of the officials interviewed could give
any positive information as to the extent
of the damage outside of the city. for the
very good reason that no word had been re-
ceived from points beyond the boundary
since the storm.
The fact, however that not single out
side wire was working in the city today In
dicateS the disastrous and widespread char
acter of the damage. If the damage to the
wires beyond. the city limits compares with
that known to have been sustained In the
city, 1t must have been most serious, and
will require considerable time and money
to repair.

was so busy directing the efforts for the re-

ing the day, at least so far as Baltimore Is
concerned.

In the county almost every house was
more or less injured, and the roofs of all
suffered greatly.
Early this morning the streets of George
town presented chaotic state. Many
thoroughfares were completely blocked to
travel. and during the storm the way Ct
the pedestrian was extremely dangerous.
Trees IN all sections Of the town ard Of
all sizes swere uprooted, and either fell
against houses or out In the roadway.
One large tree on Georgetown Heights at
the head Of 31st street. that has withstood

and the fierce wind snapped 1t of about ten
feet from the ground as though 1t were

whole, while others were snapped near the
middle. and missing cross-bars were nu-
merous.
The storm also affected the suburban rail-
roads. The trolley wires Of the Georgetown
and Tenleytown were blown down, and the
progress OF the cars was checked. Several
poles went under and tangled up the wires.
The power house also suffered, and the
smokestack was blown down, and other in
jury done. Early this morning a full force

struction was begun early this morning,

until quite late this afternoon. The Arl-

river, also suffered from the effects Of the
storm.
All of the gas lamps in this section Of
the city were extinguished, while the cur

prevent any accidents from grounded
