The Atlantic Coast Ravaged
 By Gales and Winter
DAMAGING TO SHIPPING
Startling Falls of Temperature and Binding Snow Storms Reported From Many POints-nany Vessels Cropping their Way in Fogs, Meet.

Boston. Dec. 2G.-Following the mild est Christmas day for many years, a wild winters storm broke over New England today and was accountable for q number of marine disasters. Up to : o'clock tonight three wrecks have been reported while several other boats were in distress all day. A dredger sank within six miles of the wharves of Bos~ ton and resulted in the loss of thre5 men. but in the case of the other two, the sinking of the steamer Kiowa off Boston light and the wreck of the John w MacK2y off Watch Hill. R. l.. ev- cry one was saved.
 The storm center passed over New England during the forenoon and ths snowfall throughout that section was quite heavy, especially in Maine and New HamEshire. while wind velocity reaching more than fifty miles an hoT9 was reported from some points. To night the thermometer is falling fast. Reports from Maine and New Hamp shire show that the stC.m has delayed inc train service greatly. About eight inches of snow fell in this city.
 in a binding storm which swept Bos- ion habor this afternoon the new Clyde line steamer I<iows, inward bound from Jacksonville. Fla. and Charleston, N. C.. was rammed and sunk by by the steamer Admiral Dewey, of the United States Fruit company, outward bound for Port Antonio, Jamaica and Port It. mon. Costa Rica. Captain Chickster Bnd the entire crew Of the Kiowa. mum belinE thirty men. were rescued by a tu=. The Admiral Dewey sustained practically no damege. and after laying io for the purpose of rendering posst- hle assistance, she proceeded on her way. With several passengers and a big general freight, the Admiral Dewey sailed from this port shortly after F o'clock. Owing to the driving snow storm .he Admiral Dewey was making h..r way at slow speed. A few miles beyond the Boston light the Kiowa ap- peared through clouds of mist and snow directly ahead. Before her course could be shifted the steamers collided. The Admiral Dewey struck the Kiowa a powerful blow on the port side just qhaft the msin rigging. the sharp brow Of the fruiter cutting for a cons-derahle ? distance. The damaged craft imme medi- qtely began to fill. The City of Boston fu& Cormorant. which was passing, run alongside the Kiowa and took off hor captain and crew. This was most difficult task owning to the heavy sea and in the jump from their own vessel in the tug some of the KiOwa's men fell into the water. They were rescued by inc COrmorant's men and all hands brought to this city. The Kiowa sank shortly after the accident. She had 9 big cargo of lumber. cotton, pava! stores. iron. and general merchandise.
