The Expedition to spain.
providence JournalD

In forcing upon Spain a real sense or
its inevitable helplessness our government
does not have TO encounter danger.
There is no Spanish navy, and there are
many Spanish ports, the Canaries
and other islands offering some OF the
most accessible ones. which must give
the expedition a base and an anchorage
with immunity from any real misfortune.
II is hardly necessary to say more about
the material outlay required FOR the ven
ture, needed. as one may believe, 10
give our squadron every advantage which
IL might seek AS for the sympathy with
Spain which r1ay be looked for from the
Continent, that must become less and less
obviously demonstrative with the pracu-
cal reality OF the expedition. France
will not fight US. 1t has too much TO
fear from England. and not, perhaps be-
cause OF British affection for us. The
impairment of French ornaments TO be
expected from any conflict would give
England a great advantage in Western
Europe. Nor would Germany Interfere.
II has no navy to give its viii effect.
Italy is not in condition 10 make
stern threat. either. The business" 1t
is safe 10 reckon. would be entirely be-
tween the United States and Spain
Most important of all in connection
with this project is the principle or II.
This has two modes OF effect. one Will
produce a conviction in the minds OF for
eigners that the American people are cap
able of adopting bold plans in order to
maintain their policy in an international
difficulty. 1t will give suggestion to the
world that when II is necessary 10 look
out for our interests we are able TO pro-
oct ourselves from injury across the Al
lantic just as well as on the other side
of the Pacific IL we coerce Europeans
into a recognition OF our demands for
what Is right In this hemisphere. We must
adopt the plan OF campaign which will

ployed his time making watches go alike,

this comparison he deduced the principle
of charity-heavenly charity--making man

BLIZZARD OF 1898.

greater efforts were made towards Wor-
cester and three plows and sweeper
were sent towards this city. These were
augmented by force of a half hundred
shovelers and excellent progress was
made. Late last night the gang after al
most Is hours steady work had the
track partially open to Canterbury
street and were making strenuous ef-
forts to reach the terminus of the line at
Salem square.
Drifts between Worcester and Leices-
ter ranged in depth from 4 to II feet
deep, but the powerful snow plows made
a path through all of these. In the direc-
tion of Spencer, little effort is being
made to push way through. Two plows
We're sent out from Leicester last night,
and We're kept at work all night, but no
shovelers will be put on that section of
the road until the line is cleared into
worcester. The progress made in the
work last night insures the running of
cars between Leicester and the city to-
morrow. At midnight an official of the
road said that by this afternoon regu-
lar trips would be made Five cars
which were stalled Monday might were
got to the car barn Tuesday afternoon.
On the Millbury section of the road.
the officials made as strenuous efforts to
get cars through. Owing to the firmness
with which the snow had been packed
in many places the plows were found to
be OF little use, and gangs armed with
ShoVels had to clear way for the ploWS.
In some places the snow was banked
solid to a depth of 10 feet A large force
was put on early Monday morning, and
at midnight had the track practically
clear from Millbury center to the wire
mill in Quinsigamond. Almost the worst
stretch of track then lay ahead of the
shovelers, but the officials hope to have
way cut through the Vernon hill drifts
in season to make regular trips by or
o'clock this morning. Two of the diYis-
ions cars were stalled in the storm Mon
day night, but these were got into the
shed during the forenoon yesterday.
The Marlboro road is in perhaps the
greatest trouble, as this is the road S
first winter and it was not fully equip
ped to battle with such storm. The line
was dead from an early hour Monday
night, and it is unlikely that traffic will
be resumed much before Wednesday.
One Of the company's cars which be-
came stalled on Shrewsbury street Mon
day night was still in that position last
night, having been unable to move
either way in "a hours. Work was start
ed at Marlboro to clear the line, and late
last night the workmen had arrived at
a point about mile from Northboro. No
attempt had been made to get in from
Northboro. Drifts in and about Shrews-
bury are probably the highest in the
county.

+, POLICE IN THE DRIFTS.
The Hurry Up Sleigh Gets Stuck and Has
to Be Dug Out.


Probably no one had better oppor-
tunity of receiving the full effect of the
storm than the police, especially the
night reliefs. The officers who patrol
the lake, New Worcester and Adams
square and other outlying beats claim
that the storm was equal in severity to
the blizzard of 10 years ago
Monday night the blue-coated guard
ians of the peace rendered timely as
sistance to many ladies and others who
had come out in the early evening for
the purpose of attending some enter
make their way home that getting
through the deep snow was a severe tax
on their strength.
At police headquarters a light two
seated sleigh was brought into service
during a good portion of the day Tues
day. Driver Wilson started out at about
o'clock to bring in a prisoner, but
was unable to proceed further than the
corner of Waldo and Exchange streets.
The snow banked up in front of this
sleigh to such an extent that it was i'm
possible to proceed. The horse was un-
hitched and the sleigh had to be dug
out of the drift. Later in making the
trip to station and to the JAIL it was
found necessary to shovel the sleigh out
several times before their destination
was reached
The patrol sleigh has been rugged with
a cover and is doing double duty as
patrol sleigh and ambulance until the
streets are in better condition.

Mr.. James J. Corbett is disappointed
man. Having failed, after weary weeks
of painful talking, to make a date for
another contest with Mr.. Robert Fitz-
simmons, Mr.. Corbett has written a
formal letter. saying that there is now
no future left for him in the ring, and
therefore he herewith and hereby takes
himself out Of it forever, in order to
devote himself hereafter exclu-
sively to "histrionic art" In or
der that there may be no mis-
take or misrepresentation or lurking
suspicion of insincerity in the public
mind, he further declares that his new
play, "The Adventurer," which was
brought out at Chicago Tuesday night,
is wholly free from pugilistic features.
The boxing has been omitted What
better guarantee could the dear public
desire? Chiefly that Mr. Corbett shall
keep his jaws resolutely and continually
closed. He announces the hope that he
may yet become the leading actor in
popular melodrama," so he is now open
to an engagement with the theatrical
trust

opportunity for a good subject. The
first train from Norwich followed the
THE TELEGRAPH TROUBLE.
All New York Business for Boston Re.
layed at the Local Office.

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany came in for it's full share in the
effects of the storm. Manager w. A.
Dunn Of the local office was seen by a
Spy reporter Tuesday evening, and said
that their wires were working north,
west and south, but were all down east.
For a radius of five miles about Boston.
telephone, telegraph and trolley wires
suffered the same fate. Everything in
this locality is down. Mr.. Dunn is in
hopes to have lines working to Boston
by Wednesday night. An extra force
of operators. five from New York and
three from Boston, were at work in adj
dition to the local force, in the Worces-
ter office, Tuesday night, taking matter
from New York to be forwarded to BoS-
ton by train.
The Boston Herald sent two men to
Worcester Tuesday evening to look af-
ter their interests. A special train was
chartered by these enterprising newspa-
per men. which left Worcester at 130
a, M, for the purpose of conveying their
New York and western news to the
Hub.
A gang of 300 Western Union linemen
passed through Worcester at about 10
o'clock, bound for Boston, to take part
in the effort that is being made to get
the lines in condition once more.
AS in the case of the telephone, Wor-
cester is the connecting link for the
telegraph business between the west
and eastern Massachusetts. Once more
the managers of the local institutions
have proven to the people of this city
as well as to those outside, that these
institutions on which the public are so
dependent, are in competent hands.

FIRE PRECAUTIONS.
Extra Horses to Draw Piedes of Apparatus
in Case of Alarm,

In case of fire in any of the outlying
districts, the fire department would be
at a decided disadvantage. During Mon
day night and Tuesday morning IT
would have been next to impossible to
get any Of the apparatus out in season
to do any good. Chief Vaughn was
quick to appreciate the disadvantage at
which he would be placed in case of pos
sible emergency, and telephoned orders
to the outside houses, early Tuesday
morning, to hitch four horses on their
hose wagons, in case of fire in their dis
tricts and get to the scene of action as
soon as possible.
1t would be necessary to rely on the
hydrant service entirely in the outlying
districts, as it is impossible to use the
steamers and the ladder trucks to any
advantage. These orders applied to the
New Worcester Bloomingdale and
Pleasant street engine houses AS the
streets were broken out it became ap-
parent that engine could be relied on
in case Of AN alarm in the heart Of the

WORK AT THE POST OFFICE.
The Carriers Have Hard Time of It in
the Drifta-How the Mails Came in.

Postmaster Greene was, well pleased
with his carriers Tuesday, and he re-
marked with pride when the Spy man
called during the afternoon; There
isn't gutter on the force" The men
all showed up on time and left for the
first delivery but few minutes late
The task before them was trying one,
and in many cases one delivery was all
they found time and strength to accom-
pi.sh Some made all trips very nearly
on time, but these were on routes Whlch
were largely on Main street.
The tie-ups on the electrics made 1t
impossible to send the mails to the sub
stations on anything like schedule time,
but the postmaster pressed a number
of substitute men and extra teams into
service, and by their aid succeeded in
getting one mail each to Greendale,
New Worcester and Quinsigamond.
Station A was well supplied by carrier
and team during the day. The non-ar-
rival Of mails, however, did not make
frequent trips to the stations neces-
sary.
The last mail received at the post
office Monday night came from Boston
at 10 80, and none other came from that
direction until p. m. Wednesday. The
New York Owl train, due at 5.15 a. M,
arrived at S.15 The western mail due
at 6.45 arrived at 12.15. The Norwich
mail, which also brought mail from
New York, which is due at u. 10, arrived
at 8. The northern mali over the Fitch
burg arrived at $50, and the Boston and
Maine soon after. At midnight the
Providence mail had arrived, and every
thing was in but the two last mails
from Boston. The western mails came
in good shape during the day.
During the morning few mails were
dispatched, At noon train was made
up which took mail to New York, and
at 8. 45 the Fitchburg carried northern
mail. Later in the evening the mails
were dispatched with more regularity.
1t was impossible to send any mail
toward Leicester. The Shrewsbury mai
reached the post office after hard trip
across hills and fields. No mail was re-
ceived from Paxton or other outlying
towns.

THE COURTS SUSPENDED
Judge Hopkins Held Up by the Storm al
His Home in MilIbury.


The courts of justice are rarely af-
fected by the weather, but Tuesday was
an exception. In the superior criminal
court the jurors, from their chance in
having remained in town over night,
were present at the regular morning
hour, and High Sheriff Chamberlain and
Court Officer Jenkins with a deputy
sheriff was present, but Judge Hopkins,
who is presiding at the present term,
could not reach Worcester by steam
road, for the Providence and Worcester
road was not opened until late in the
afternoon, nor by the electric cars, as
traffic on the Worcester and Millbury
was equally blocked.
In the superior civil court, Judge Bond
remained in town and was at the court
house promptly, and found the venera-
BILE court crier, Charles Sibley, with two
deputies, ready for court procedure.
However, three members of the jury be-
fore which the case of Monday was on
trial failed to appear, and justice was
obliged to wait, although Judge Bond
heard several minor cases in which a
jury was not necessary. Judge Bond
remained at the court house during the
morning and portion of the afternoon,
and later Col Gile appeared and new
development in the Reed case was in
the air.
Judge William T. Forbes could not
reach Worcester from Westboro, and
the sessions of both the probate and in
soiyency courts were postponed until
this morning
OF the county commissioners, George
w. Cooke, who lives the farthest from
worcester, was the only one to brave
the storm and reach Worcester. He
came down from his home in Barre. get
ting into Worcester at about 1 O'clock.
with his train two hours late.
