THE SN0WSTORM IN new YORK
SOME INCONVENIENCE WAS
CAUSED BY IT.
One Atlantic Liner Lost Anchor and
Others We're Delayed Outside the

in this city Indeed, the snow fall,
which amounted to seven inches in

in clearing the streets and sidewalks.
The temperature was 20 above zero.
Trains were thirty minutes to one and
a half hours late.
All of the vessels which came in early
in the morning had been at or just off
the coast during the snOWstOTm. Among
those which came up were the Amer
lean liner St. Louis, French liner La
Touraine, and the PhOenecia- The St.
Louis was sighted off Fire island
through the snow and CROPPED about in
the vicinity of the Hook until this
morning. Early in the morning she
lost IN anchor She was near the Hook
and riding with her port anchor out.
y swell lifted the vessel and the cable
parted near the haWser hole. Twice
while outside she passed in the Hook
but went back again. The SHOWS lrm

Union Depot Proposition Likely
to Fail.
STREET CLOSING TIE-UP
COMPANIES DEMAND CERTAIN
PRIVILEGES.
Unless They Are Permitted to Close
Certain Thoroughfares to the Pub
lie They viii Have No Further
Dealings With the Council on the
Subject.

One of the purposes Of the visit of
Vice President Cornish Of the Short
Line 10 Utah at this time is to con-
slider the question Of accepting or re
jecting the union depot franchise which
the council has offered to grant the
Rio Grande Western and the Short
Line. 1t is stated by people in a posi-
ton to know that there is every rea-
son for believing that the franchise
will be declined unless some important
notifications are made in the proposed
ordinance.
One of the requests made by the
railroads when the union depot ques-
ton was first agitated was that they
be allowed to clOse South Temple street
from Third to Fourth West streets and
Third South street from Fifth 70 Sew
enth West streets. These are the very
points that the council committees in
charge OF the matter hung fire on. The
railroad men say it is absolutely vital
to their interests that the request be
granted.
The committees say to the railroads
that they must take the franchise with
out this concession or not at all. Ii is
not unlikely that the project viii be
permitted TO fall through altogether,
as the railroads seem determined 10
maintain their present attitude and the
council is equally determined. 1t is
probable that the matter viii come up
IN the council meeting tomorrow night
for some kind of action.
Judge Cornish said last night that
the depot franchise was one of the
things he had come to Utah to look
into. He said he had not had time as
yet to make an Investigation, but that
he would do so within the next day OF
two. As he leaves the city on Wednes-
day, some definite action will proba-
bly, be taken before that time.

THE TROUBLE IN CUBA
GOV. WOODS NEW ORDERS HAVE
CAUSED FEAR
His Transfer of Functions of Govern
ment to Civil Authorities Upheld
By Many But Friction is Feared.

Santiago de Cuba, Feb. 1S.-Governor
Woods general orders specifying the
prerogatives Of military commanders
and civil governors are creating a SEN
sation here. The press, with the excep-
ton of the violently partisan local
Cuban organ. comment favOrably upon
them. saying that they indicate an
honest intention on the part of the in
tervening government TO fulfill the
pledge to establish the independence
of cuba.
The provision transforming public
works to the civil department on April
]. caused alarm among many American
employees, as they expect dismissal
when the transfer is made.
The managers of American and
foreign business enterprises are also
somewhat concerned, as they have no
confidence in the coming Cuban ad-
ministration of public affairs.
Thousands of Cuban politicians con-
ideItly expect recognition when the
transfer is made.
