Louisville. Ky, Feb. 1e-Rain. snow and sleet, combined with high winds. are the prevailing conditions throughout the South tonight. As Q result. railroad traf- hc is delayed, while in number of cities the street railway service is almost at a standstill.
 Reports from Tennessee, Arkansas. Mis- sissirpi, Northern Texas, Alabama, Geor- gia and all parts of Kentucky, tell of damage done by the blizzard of swollen streams and suffering on the part of man and beast. of traffic of all kinds delayed. and, in some instances. loss of life Is re- ported.
 In Louisville, the snow was Al inches deep at o'clock and though the fall had about ceased at that time, a strong wind piled the snow in drifts to the detri- ment of the street railway company, which. with the greatest difflcuity. kept its cars in motion at irregular intervals during the day. Several of the trolley lines were entirely abandoned tonight, snow blows proving powerisss to clear the tracks.
 Sleet, snow and rain were followed to- night by drop in temperature through out the South and Southwest, and zero weather is expected in Kentucky By to- morrow morning.
 All the rivers ip this State and through out the South are rising. the Ohio River at this point having risen three fest in the past thirty-six hours. It is expected, however. that the cold weather will check the rise.
 Memphis, Tenn. Feb. 1s.-one of the worst sleet and snow storm that has visited this section for years prevailed last night and today. causing serious de. lays to railway and street car traftic and interfering to some extent with tgie. graphic and telephone communications ir all directions. The trains arriving from three to eight hours late. A steady train all day Sunday turned into sleet last night. This was followed by snow storm which during the day assumed the propor- tions of a blizzard. At 6 o'clock there was a decided drop in the temperature and the snow ceased falling.
 Reports from Arkansas, Mississippi and Northern Texas tell of similar conditions At Fort Worth and Dallas the snow fall was the heaviest in years. Trains are run ming on belated schedules and in many instances are annullled. Tonight it Is clear and cold throughout the Southwest.
