AT NEWPORT
Very Little Trouble Experienced
In tho City by tho Sea.

The storm at Newport was not so Sc
rious as in other parts OF the state and
but little Inconvenience was caused
The electrics had a clear track from
early morning, and during the forenoon
piow and working force were sent out
over the Island road, and by nightfalI
they seem to have met with no success.
for the island cars failed TO make Their
appearance, and II is reported that the
roads rolling stock was badly crippled
during the storm.
Throughout the city the streets are
clogged with piles OF snow so that Wheel
ing Is very difficult. All day the firemen
were digging out hydrants. and the ap-
paratus was heavily horsed, but a call
was sure TO meet with slow progress
During the storm Saturday Gus Gum
art. a seaman gunner on the torpedo
boat Dahlgren. lost a foot while tending
lines for a tug casting off at the Torpedo
station. His leg became caught between
the spile and line. so that IL practically
severed the member. Shipmates stopped
the flow OF blood by tying up the limb,
and he was rushed to the Naval hospital
where he received medical attention. He
is an ex-apprentice boy, and about tn 20
up for examination for gunner's mate.

COAL GAVE OUT
RlVerpolnt Power Station Had
No Fuel to Run Boilers.

The residents OF the Pawtuxet Valley
were treated to a very trying and annoy
ing experience Saturday night and the
greater portion of yesterday. for the cars
stopped running on the entire Valley sys-
TEN. and IL was not until yesterday af-
ternoon that the cars again began run
ming on schedule time
While the blizzard might have Mad
something to do with the trouble. the
principal cause OF the tie-up was a short
age OF coal at the power house at River
point Between the city and the cutout
In the trolley wire at the state institu- =
tions there was power enough, and the
cars and plows were able TO force their
way through the snow. but beyond How
ard the Juice" was scarce and weak and
the snowdrifts deeper than elsewhere on
the line; hence II was that plows and cars
were stalled and their passengers given
experiences which the majority OF them
will not willingly duplicate in a hurry.
Yesterday morning six passenger cars
and snowplow were stalled between
Riverpoint and Pontiac One car became
stalled at Lower Point early Saturday
evening. and was being shovelled out at
noon yesterday. AT Natick one large
vestibule car stuck fast about midway I'm
the hill near the village post Office. and
another ceased its vain efforts at getting
through the snow the fiat few
hundred yards below the hill and re-
mained there until Yesterday afternoon.
On Natick plains three cars and a plow
became stalled just beyond ST. Josephs
church. number OF passengers were on
the cars when the snowdrifts made their
further progpess impossible. Cars that
left the city at o'clock Sa asurday after
noon reached Natick about 10 Saturday
evening. Cars that left the city an hour
or two later got as far as Pontiac or
Moons cut by midnight-and remained
there when the coal and the power gave
out at Riverpoint.

DECEMBER MAKES
ANOTHER RECORD,
Saturdays Storm the Hardest for
So Brief a Period the Month Has
Seen for Many Years.

The storm OF Saturday and Saturday
night was one OF the hardest registered
In December for many years, especially
that portion OF II which came after night
fall, and although the storm really ceased
soon after 10 o'clock Sunday morning. 1t
was not until o'clock that the sun
shone forth from cloudess sky
During the storm eight inches of snow
fell OF very moist character, containing
IL inches OF water.
The maximum velocity attained by the
storm was between and 6 o'clock, during
which time the wind roared at the rate
of q miles an hour and I'm the early
evening the storm took on all the appear
snce OF a blizzard. In the last week
there has been a fall of Just IA inches OF
snow.
Early Saturday evening the street cars
found IL pretty hard going, coming 10 a
complete stop every two or three minutes,
and when they did run IL was al a very
slow gait the trouble being at the power
station. This was remedied later after
the snow plows had gone over the road
and along about midnight the running
was much better on some OF the lines. al
though on others IL was stopped entirely
drifts being largely responsible for this
latter state OF affairs.
During the day regular schedulel time
was observed as much as possible, partic-
ularly so far as concerned the city lines
The Riverpoint line was still the chief
offender as 10 regularity and IL was re-
ported at headquarters that no cars ran
TO or from this point after clock yes
terday morning: nor were they running
up to the middle OF yesterday afternoon
For a considerable time yesterday MORN
