Storm Sweeps Nine States, BIocl<ad-
 ing Railroads.
 SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 12.-Ths whole Pacific coast from British Go. lumbia to southern California and tho states of Oregon. Washington, Idaho Montana, Nevada, Wyoming, Utah and western Colorado has been swept by g storm that has resulted in an almost total prostration of telegraph service over that territory and in the noun tains has all but tied up the railroads in regular midwinter blockade.
 The storm, which is still raging with unabated fury, is severest on the coast For five days rain has been falling without cessation in the Puget sound country, which turned into snow, ac companied by wind which is blowing at the rate of thirty-flve miles an hour. Heavy gales are reported along the en- tire Pacific coast, in California accom-. panied by torrential rains.
 In the gorges of the Cascade noun tains snow is reported to be four feet deep on the level and is still falling, and railroad traffic is seriously imped ed in consequence. At Helena and Butte and over the ranges of central and eastern Montana the storm has turned into a blinding blizzard, with eight inches of snow at Helena, six inches at Butte, with high wind and rapidly dropping temperature.
 Southward in Wyoming, Nevada and Utah there has been little precipitation so far, but high winds have prevailed for nearly twenty-four hours. Tele- graph service has been practically wiped out. Prostrate telegraph poles and wires buried in snowdrifts resulted in the Pacific northwest being almost completely cut off from the outside world for the greater part of the day, while conditions were almost az bad in California.

William RI. Hughes, AssembIyman,
 Found by his Wife Dying.
 TROY, N. Y, Nov. 12.-Assembly- man William H. Hughes committed suicide by hanging at his home in Granville. He was found by his wife hanging from a rafter on the back stairway and was taken down while still alive.
 Physicians were summoned, but their efforts to resuscitate him were of no avail, as the unfortunate man expired few minutes afterward. Mr. Hughes was declared bankrupt last July, and it was undoubtedly his financial Uou- bles that led him to take his life.

He had been prom!- nent in Washington county politics for years. He had been an assemblyman from the county for two years and was reelected last week.

 Some inquiry has arisen because 1t has been learned that the pupils in Lne parochial schools of this city are not eligible to the favor of the 3-cent fare, says the New Britain Herald, which has been granted by the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Go to the school children.
 In the order that has been received at the local office from headquarters, it is stated that these tickets are for the use of school children attending the public schools only, and are not to De sold to business college students or to pupils of private or state normal Sc&mQls.''
 In this city there are 1000 pupils in parochial schools, so that the ruling 10 them is arbitrary. The tickets are not good on Saturdays, Sundays or school holidays, and are to be accepted by conductors from 7:3O a. m. to 5 p. m. It is presumed that at headquarters, where the order was made out, that the officials had in mind the barring Of the pupils in the private schools where tuition is charged rather than pupils at a parochtal school, which is supported by the parish.
 At the office of the company to-day it was stated that the order must be lived up to as it reads, and the local officials have no right to make any de- paatIre, no matter what the force of argument. Teachers and principals are not given the benefit of the reduc- fi0N

 The case against the boys in the Fla berss switch assault and alleged con- spiracy received another setback this morning. The witnesses for the state were informed not to appear in court again until they are sent for. It was expected the Lawlor- Seadden case would close to-day and thus make way Tor the cases against the boys for to- morrow, but it. became apparent soon after opening court that it will hardly close until tomorrow afternoon. The boys and many of the witnesses and eight of the Jurors were in court expect ing the case would begin. The eight jurors did not receive their notification by special delivery sent out yesterday not to appear until tomorrow morning. One or two of them live in town, and the reason for the special delivery let ters failing to reach them was because of their having changed their ad- dresses.
 The state was fully prepared to go on to-day. All the witnesses were on hand. Detective Rogers came to town last evening, and Wo1cott. Morrissette and Merna, the crew of the car that was attacked, came this morning.
 Judge Wheeler is annoyed at the great length of time the Lawlor- Scad- den case has taken. A few days ago he informed the attorneys they were wasting hours on fifteen minute wit nesses. N
