teams he could not use. The Console
GATED Street Railway engaged about
zoO men and so teams to cart away
snow. All differences with the city
disappeared long ago, and the street
railway wasn't looking for the clean
ing OF It's tracks alone. 1t swept the
snow from one side Of the street as
tSs' as II could, and greatly assisted
the city IN the task of removing snow
Inc men were divided into Is gangs
CohGuctors and motormen were placed
~ charge of the gangs and directed
lie work or removing the snow. The
streets IN which the railway gangs did
,he most work were Pleasant Chand-
Ter Trumbull, Green, Millbury and
ooutAorlage. In the streets which are
marrow the snow was entirely removed
between the tracks and gutfar on oT na
oIue OF the street, the purpose being to
MAINTAIN a passageway for teams so
Sney VIII not block the cars when the
latter get running regularly. The
gangs broke out the streets in this wav
aa Idr as Newton square, on Pleasant
street TO the wire mills in Quinsiga
mono, TO Hammond street on South
GSIluse, and to Park avenue on the
chandler street line. They will finish
those lines today and before noon ay-
pect TO nave cars running on good time
on all the important lines. Lincoln
street VIII be opened this morning and
cars VIII be run TO Adams square as
sooh as II IS. Cars will be running as
Iar as Gates lane early today.
me cars that run between Newton
square and Lincoln square and tha
Union station will be pushed throngb
as near regular time today as possible
NO attempt was made to run the
cars on schedule time on the main line
yesterday They We're run back and
iorth at as frequent intervals as could
De done. The railway company was
retarded in this matter by the gangs
a. work clearing the snow. They
piocheo the path of the cars many
times, and prevented their making a
continuous run. But efficient service
was maintained in spite of all Difficult
tles, and the street railway COMPANY
broke all records for excellent work in
handling the storm.
The Worcester and Marlboro line
was not heard from. 1t stopped run
hllg curing the storm Monday, and
that's all anybody knows of it, The
drltts are referred to as fierce. The
road may succeed in getting car
through today, but if the schedule is
reached tomorrow it will be doing well
Inc worcester and Suburban cars
stopped running early Monday. The
work OF clearing outthe routes to Mill
Jury Leicester and Spencer began this
morning, and this afternoon a large
gang of men was put on. The work. 3s
SO extensive that it is difficult to state
now soon the tracks will be cleared for
cars. -oi
The Worcester and Clinton road did
not start to clear away the snow at
Chhton until noon. Before that time
the wind was so high that all at
tempts We're useless. The last car was
run yesterday noon, and since thai
time the snow had piled up along the
route. Besides the gang put on the
work from the office at Clinton, another
gang was started from the car house
Inc gang in Worcester started earlier
this morning from this end of the line
as the wind did not interfere so Sc
rously with the work. It is barely
possible that the cars on this line will
be running again tomorrow morning
but not at all likely that travel will
be resumed before that time.
