MAILS WERE DELAYED.
Snow In New York Seriously Impedes
Postal Business.

New York, Feb. 19.--Postoffice offic-
ials had an anxious time yesterday
Not only were the incoming mails Sc
riously delayed by the havy fall OF
snow, but the almost impossible streets
caused an apparently endless series Of
delays in wagon deliveries.
Then, to add to Superintendent Tied
mans troubles, the pneumatic tubes
between the postoffice and the Grand
Central station became clogged. Car
rlers containing 1000 letters each are
ordinarily sent through the tube to
the Grand Central station at the rate
of Is minute. As result of that ac-
cident extra wagons were called for
and the contractors put on nearly a
hundred additional two-horse vehicles,
but even with these, the deliveries at
times were hours behind the schedules.

Kennedy was relieved MT times by
Senator Tewey. of Silver Bow, who read
chapters out Of codes, This took hours,
but the opposition was strong lunged
and did not weary apparently as long
as the hours dragged by. Beer and
sandwiches were sent to the capitol
