TERRIFIC STORY
IN NEW YORK.

New York, Feb. 22.-After "a hours
on snow, sleet and rain and night OF
high winds, New York awoke today
to the worst weather conditions 1t has
faced this winter. Telegraph and tee-
phone wires are down IN all directions
and train service in and out Of the
city delayed and irregular, and subur-
ban trolley service practically at q
standstill. When day broke cold rain
was still falling and had turned the
snow to semi-frozen slush, impeding
irafie and flooding low lying streets.
During the night the high wind play
ed havoc with ioe-ooated trees and
wires and miles of electric light, tele-
phone and telegraph wires were down,
making a heavy task for the army OF
linemen who are at work attempting TO
restore the systems.
ny 10 o'clock the telegraph companies
had restored limited communication
with the rest OF the country except
south Of New York which was still iso-
lated. The heaviest damage appears to
have resulted between this city and
Philadelphia. Telegraph poles. carried
down by the immense weight Of sleet
burdened wires, caused delay OF one
70 fiye hours In the passenger train SER
Vice OF the Pennsylvania railroad dur
ing the night between this city and
Baltimore. The main trouble, as re-
ported from the passengers from the
south, was In the district between Ches-
ter, Pa, and Trenton, N. j. At the
first named place the entire telephone,
telegraph and electric light systems
were total wreck, the town was In
darkness, and trains on the Philadel-
lhia, Wilmington e. Baltimore division
were run without the aid of the tele-
graph, necessitating slow progress.
The worst Of the wreck among the
wires was between Bristol and Trenton,
N. j. In the II miles between those
two points more than 100 telegraph
poles were broken. There we're reports
Of burned trolley cars in various Sec
lions. The weight Of the Ice on the
wires caused them to break, and the
loose ends, encounterlng cars, set them
on fire.
Central park and other wooded reser-
Vations have suffered enormous dam
age, Hundreds Of handsome trees were
split or denuded Of branches by the
high wind. Added to the other OBJ
staces which the northeasterly gale Of
last night left In Its wake was phe-
romenally high tide, which greatly in
terfered with traffic by ferry.
Even the uncertain telegraphic COM
munication which existed last night be-
tween New York and Washington by
way Of Chicago and the south ceased
early today.

Since Il O'clock last Right there has
been an exciting run going on between

has been doing the chasing and the
object Of his flying "trip to the june
ton city is the recovery OF eleven 500
bills belonging to Il miner named Ed

II is another story OF miner with

through the dangerous and mystic
mazes OF Commercial street, the loss of
the money and the miners regrets.
only in this case the amount lost Is
much greater than usual and the de-
tails OF the flight and pursuit little
out of the ordinary.
According to the story OF Edwards,
whose first name could not be learned,
he drifted into the city yesterday from
an adjoining state, his pockets bullying
with new crisp bills and before long he
found his way TO Commercial street.
On the steps leading to rooming
house, formerly the Lone Star gam
bling den, he met a colored woman.
'Hellol' said he." got any rooms up
there"
Receiving an affirmative answer he
climbed the stairs. After securing his
room the next thing he did was 10 give
negro porter s. to get some whisky

Edwards drank considerable and re-
moving his coat and vest threw him
self on the bed About II o'clock II
dawned upon him that the woman had
left the place.
The thought Of his money flashed
through Edwarde' whisky befuddled
brain and he jumped for his vest In
which he claims he had the sl,l00. The
money was gone.
With his mind In whirl Edwards
made hurried inquiries and learned
that not only was the woman missing,
but a colored man and his wlfe--the
Kerls, were non est. also.
Edwards hunted up the oiiicer on the
Commercial street beat and related to
him his tale OF woe.
Upon further investigation II was
learned that a colored man had been
seen near the rooming house with
coupe and later, hack driver report
ed seeing the colored people driving In

wards Ogden, No time was lost In
