day Wednesday the Union station was
thronged with people who were either
going or coming. The exodus was large
and the influx larger. Yesterday the
travel was light. The storm prevented
many from making trips which they
had planned The trains were operated
on schedule time. the snow having no
effect upon the trains. One Of the
trains from Springfield was forty min

WITH THE TROLLEY COMPANY.

With The IftOLLE1 GUM RANY
The storm had no effect upon the OPP
GRAFTON of cars on the lines OF the Fair
Haven and Westville Railroad COM
pany yesterday. The company had
sweepers out nearly all day and during
the morning the snow plows were run
over some of the lines The snow was
a wet snow and this prevented drifting
on the tracks, thereby saving the COM
pany considerable expense and trouble.
Two or three motors were burned out
but the cars were quickly repaired and
again placed in operation. The traffic
was fair. Had the weather been pleas
ant the traffic would have been heavy
as New Haven is always a gathering
place for thousands of visitors on such
holidays. AS it was the trolley cars
were kept running on schedule time,
and those who had occasion to do any
travelling were not put to any incon-
venence so far as the efficiency of the
trolley company was concerned.

CHRISTMAS SERVICES
at CHRIST, ST THOMAS AND ST.
MARY'S CHURCHES.

Excellent Music Rendered by the
Chareh ChoIrs-stOFm Interfered
with AttsndaBcs-serm Especially
Appropriate Delivered by the Rectors.
The inclement weather affected the
attendance at Christ church yesterday
morning. but even a good sized congre-
cation assembled to participate in the
special Christmas services. Holy COM
munion was celebrated at an early SER
vice. held at 1880 and again at the 1890
service. The church was handsomely
decorated for the special exercises of
the day and the chancel and altar pre-
scented very inviting and impressive
appearance. Lilies, palms and other
ported plants were used profusely in
the decorations and the arrangement
was decidedly artistic. At the 1880 SER
vice the music was of a special nature
and very appropriate for the occasion.
The church choir rendered very prof.
Gent assistance in the rendition of
Gounod's music, Mrs. Kraft singing the
solo parts in excellent voice.
The sermon was delivered by the rec
tor of the church. Rev. G. Brinley Nor
gan. The clergyman spoke of the sig
nificance of the Christmas observance,
the birth of the Saviour was alluded to
impressively and the life and teachings
of the Master were discussed as the
great example for all mankind. OF all
holidays, Rev. Mr.. Morgan classed
Christmas as the most important as it
stands for all the better elements and
characteristics of the human race. The
gradual observance of this great Chris
tian holiday was traced historically in
a very interesting manner and the con-
gregation was made to feel the necessi-
ty of more general, religious recogni-
ton of the day.
At o'clock yesterday afternoon a
service of evening prayer was held at
the church. Another good sized attend
ance marked this service, which was
one of the most impressive of the day.

STIFFNESS EVERYWHERE.
Not EfpyIe DisturBs the Caimness
of the Strlio&a Situation In
Pennsylvania.

Hazleton, Pa, May 20.-1he second
week of the total suspension of hard
coal mining as a result of the dead
lock between miner and mine owner
began without the faintest ripple to
disturb the calrnness of the situa-
ton. A Sabbath stiffness prevails
everywhere. Not one of the coal
companies in this territory made an
attempt to start up colliery, and
not miner wandered near the big
black breakers. The collieries and
their surroundings have a desolute
appearance. No one is about, except
the engineers, the firemen and pump
runners, whose duty it is to keep
the mines free from water and gas,
the stablemen who are looking after
the mules that have been brought
to the surface, after having been in
total darkness for two years, and
the repairmen who are doing odd
jobs of patchwork in and about the
main buildings.

was loaded with passengers and the

bound up the bay when the yacht
suddenly appeared out Of the fog and
struck the ferryboat on the star
board side, just forward of the
wheelhouse- The bowsprit of the
yacht penetrated the mems cabin and
was broken off. Beyond this, the
yacht apparently sustained no furth-
er damage and proceeded on her way.

Explosion In the Fraserville and
Thistle Coal Mines at
Coal Creek, Tenn.
ONLY ONE MAN KNOWN TO HAVE ESCAPED
About Three Hundred Men are Said
to Have Been at Work ut the
Time, and the Mines Being ON
Fire There Is Little Chance Of
Any Surviving.

Knoxville, Tenn. May 2O.--A special
to the Sentinel says the Fratervilie
and Thistle coal mines at Coal Creek,
Tenn, exploded Monday morning.
Only one man escaped, he being
blown out of the mine About 300
men were at work in the mines.
Flames are now issuing from mouths
and ventholes.
A special to the Sentinel says:
1.-TWO rescuing parties were started
into the Thistle and Fraterville mine
entrances as soon as possible after
the explosion. The Thistle party was
unable to make any Roadway what
soever, as the gas stifed the men oil
most as soon as they entered the
shaft The Fraterville party went as
far as the parting of the ways" into
the mine where a heavy fall of slate
was encountered. This cut off, any
further progress into the mine until
the slate obstacle can be removed.
The intense heat indicates that the
mine IL on fire.
At eleven o'clock there was no
longer any question but that the
Thistle miners also suffered in the
disaster.
At Il 80 o'clock one man was taken
from the mouth of the Fraterville
mine. He was an unrecognizable mass

Yards Wide and a Mile Long Cut
Through the Residence Sect1oh
In Which Only One House was
Left Standing.

Dallas. Tex, May 20.--The death
dealing storm which swept over the
state of Texas Sunday afternoon
snuffed out the lives of at least 80
PERSONS, injured over 100, and left the
historic town of GoHad a gaping
wreck.
Within five minutes the terrible
work OF the tornado was done, and
those who were lucky enough to es-
cape with their lives ran to the work
Of rescue. The survivors at Goliad
are too dazed to estimate the proper
ty loss, but strip of the town two
blocks wide and one mile long was
swept. The damage is heavy. Dead
and dying animals are mixed with
the debris which marks the path of
the storm.
The sight which met the eye in the
western part of the city was ap-
palling. Between Church and Patri-
clio streets, which run north and
south distance of a mile in length,
only one house was left standing
and scarcely vestige of many could
be seen.
Very little damage was done except
within these boundaries, a width Of
ESQ yards
The section which suffered was the
residence portion, the lower part be-
ing the new settlement, while the
upper part contained many fine resi-
dences. The Methodist and Baptist
churches and the Baptist parsonage,
both just completed, and the negro
Methodist church were DESTROYED.
The Episcopal church was badly dam
aged and fully one hundred houses
totally destroyed. Che stone res.-
dence of r. T. = Wis was the only
building in the pathway of the storm
not demolished, and 1t is a wreck.
General superintendent Forbes

New York, May 2O.--The ferryboat
Mauch Chunk. Of the Central Rail
rood Of New Jersey, collided with a
railroad float off the Battery, Mon
day. The Mauch Chunk had num-
Der of passengers aboard and her
captain did not back out from the
float for fear that the water would
rush in at the hole made by the col
lision. The float and ferryboat drift
ed down the bay together, and as
there was a heavy fog, were soon lost
to sight from shore. The fer1yhoats

THAT REGIcIDE CONSPIRACY.
The Madrid Papers Inclined to
Think the Matter Has Been
UnduIy Exaggerated.

Madrid, May 2o.-The police here
are extremely reticent regarding the
discovery of the anarchist plot. Sew
eral of the papers now question
whether the arrested men really en-
tertained the intentions attributed to
them.
It is said the authorities, on get
ting an inkling of purchase of
dynamite, ordered inquiries made
concerning each purchaser, and the
existence of the conspiracy is thus
thought to have been confirmed. New
