also caught the effect of the storm.
ana trains were late in getting in. The
bulletin at the union depot was also
blank in this respect and showed
nothing. On the eastern division of the
Omaha the wind was brisk, and but
one inch of new snow had fallen. On
the northern division it was showing
hard and from two to four inches had
fallen. The dispatches reported that
no snow had fallen north of Superior.
The 500 also reported considera BILE
trouble yesterday afternoon, and it was
feared that during the night still more
depressing information would be re-
ceived. The officials of all the roads
are weary of fighting snow drifts and
paying the expenses therefore, and

the fall of snow was heavier in the
vicinity of st. Paul than in any Dor
ton Of the Northwest, according to the
reports of the weather department.
The snow belt extended up as far as.

Ihe cable line was stopped for quarter
of an hour, owing to a blocked car
near the foot of the hill. The cable
line was sea sick affair all the even

er of snow, which could not be brushed
off. AS result the trains ran with
an uncertain jump and bump, very
disastrous to derby hats and sore toes.
A blockade of Lafayette and Rondo

stalled until a wise conductor secured
several shovels full of ashes from an

TRIP FROM WEST ST. PAUL.
No. 356 on the Rice and Concord
line made a perilous trip last evening
with eight passengers on board. The
packet left the lower end Of the line
promptly on time without freight and
the usual manifest of passengers from
South st. Paul. AT the State street
landing five more passengers were
taken on board, four Of them being ex-
cUrsionists who had been attending a
lecture at the Hebron Baptist church.
Three of the four were women, and the
fourth was a gentleman who respond

ed to the name of Reed, when the elder
ly cabin passenger ACCOMPANYING him
addressed him.
The packet made her way slowly
under the strong head winds, and when
the captain came through to collect
fares he remarked that he expected a
bad time at the ST. Paul bridge, and it
was uncertain what time the landing at
Fourth street would be made Never
theless, he issued transfers to some of
the paSsen gers who live out Mississippi
street way, and to others who wanted
to board the cable and the West Sew
enth street liners.
AT the Winifred street landing the
pilot opened the door of his little house
and said he would stop there two min
utes as he was somewhat ahead of time
and. he wanted to make close connec-
tions with the liners on the north
landings of the river. The captain
said it was all right and the pilot
whistled a tune as he stood in his
doorway and winked at the pretty girl
who took an exchange for West Sew
enth street. Finally the crew conclud-
ed the two minutes were up and with
two bells to start her, the packet
wheels groaned and the perilous voyage
was begun.

landing. Here the headWindS proved
stronger, and the noble old packet
reeled under the pressure of power that
was put on her motors. She forged
ahead slowly, and yet more slowly.
until finally she stopped entirely and
the captain got out and went forward
10 have a word with the pilot. In the
meanwhile the machinery was working
at full speed and the whirlling wheels
told of the tremendous energy that was
being useleSSly expended.
ITO get her nose over that bar we
must back her up and make a run for
it," said the captain, and he rang three
bells, while the man at the wheel eased
off the machine, reversed the lever and
gallant old 356 backed slowly down
to the Fillmore avenue station.

the rumbling of crank wheels made
the structure creak and tremble On

Again she stopped, and again and yet

was not the worst within the memory
of man, 1t was the worst which has
been experienced since the celebrated
storm of 1892 Fortunately, there was
no loss of life, and in this respect the
'92 blizzard still holds the record by
several points
At seven o'clock yesterday morning
IL commenced to snow in dead earnest
During the early morning hours. there
were few furries but the band did
not commence to play until a little
later. By o'clock the dirty streets
were covered by a clean layer, and the
fun commenced. At noon there were
several inches of new snow on top of
the thirty inches which had already
fallen during the winter and which was
packed down into ice on the streets.
AT o'clock last evening when the
government weather service made its
last observation for the day, over five
inches of new snow had fallen. and at
II o'clock the snow was still coming
down in reduced quantities. The five
inches Of snow which had fallen at

nearly all the unfortunateS were

the storm could not be called a bliz-
zard. At that hour the wind came up.
Then the fun for the street railway
company and all other transportation
companies commenced, as the wind
packed the snow into drifts and PLAYED
havoc with traffic Of all descriptions
A foot of snow on top of two other
feet of the same material is too much
snow for a large city to handle with
