TO-day's Continued Snow FAN and Drifts
ParaIyze Business.
The blizzard which prevailed all day has
proved disastrous to the travelling public and
business is paralyzed. The storm kept
patrons from the stores and few teaulsters
ventured out. The Schuylkill Traction and
Lakeside railway companies, in the words OF
a current song, were up against the real
thing" and couldn't get their cars over the
lines Even the steam railroads found nc
little difficulty in maintaining operations, and
all trains were half hour or more behind
schedule time. Lehigh Valley tain
running from Mahanoy City to town ran
through a drift of snow eight feet high in a
cut The engineer said he seemed to be cut
off entirely from the world when he passed
through the drift Unless there is an early
abatement in the storm the town will stand a
good chance of becoming snow bound. The
full effects of the storm can only be realized
by those who have Travelled through the
suburbs. There the drifts are assuming large

1t is stated on reliable authority that the

Freeland, will consolidate with the other
local lines in Schuylkill, Luzerne and
adjacent counties, and will extend its wires
to Tamaqua, MahanOy City, Shenandoah,
Pottsville and the other towns in these
counties. 1t is dollars to doughnuts that the
company does not secure the right of way
through Pottsville. The Town Council OF

engine struck between the horses aud the
sleigh All the occupants were hurled from

The Philippine natives are, like all
half savage people, governed in their
own aggression by nothing but a fear
OF being whipped by the enemy, and
they cannot understand any fOrbear-
ance on the part of an opponent ex-
cept on the theory that he is afraid of
them. We have had the same thing
for 80 years in our own Indian wars
The British have had the same thing
in India and Africa, and so have all
the Caucasian races wherever they
have had to deal with half civilized
peoples. We lost more men and killed
more Indians in the west through the
mild, temporizing and supposedly hu-
name policy of successive adminis-
tration than we would have lost in a
few sharp, sound thrashings adminis-
tered in successive allOpathic doses
Just to show the untutored savage that
we meant business, and would whip
him first and treat him right after
ward"
II is understood that the campaign
against the Philippine insurgents is
to be prosecuted with vigor. The ques-
tion was fully discussed at yesterdays
cabinet meeting, and it is expected
that General Otis, in cooperation with
Admiral Dewey, will push forward at
once and give the insurgents no chance
to recover from the defeat of last Sun
day Iloilo is to be occupied at once
by the American naval forces, and it
is expected that General Otis will move
Immediately to Malolos, the insurgent
capital and capture or disperse the
so-called Filipino government.

CENTRAL EAdAN SUSPENDED.

But He VIII Collect Pay Regularly,
and Be Retired in 1905.
Washington, Feb. 8.-The president
yesterday caused to be promulgated
the sentence in the case of General
Charles p. Eagan. The court martial
sentence was dismissal from the army,
and the president has commuted this
to six years suspension from duty. In
committing the sentence the president
eXtols General Eagans gallant con-
duct in battle and his long and hon
orable record of service" and declares
there were mitigating circumstances
developed during the trial of the case.
1t was stated by the adjutant general
that General Eagan's suspension car
ries him to within few days of his
retirement under the age limit. He will
be reinstated in time to retire with the
regular rank and pay provided in such
cases.
The sentence of suspension, accord
ing to the legal officers of the depart
ment, does not deprive General Eagan
of any part of his pay, but as the sem
tence reads without rank and duty
he loses his allowances, which include
Communication of quarters, rations and
fuel and his horse allowance. This is
quite a large financial item.
