GALES IN THE EAST.
Most Violent That Have Occurred for
Years Ragged for Hours.

New York, Dec 19-The snow storm
and gale which struck the coast Sat
urday and continued till the early
hours Sunday Morning was the most
violent that has occurred for several
years. Reports from the New Jersey
and New England coast and from in
coming steamers tell of furious gales
and many disasters.
At Vineyard Haven over Is schoon-
efs, anchored in the harbor, were
blown ashore early Sunday and sew
eral others were damaged in collis-
ions. Off the Bay Head, N. j., life
saving station, the schooner Lizzie H.
DraytOn, bound for Providence from
Baltimore, went ashore, the crew be-
ing rescued by the life savers.
The Cunarder, Umbria, and the Am
erican liner st. Paul, both of which
arrived Sunday, reported heavy wealth
er and adverse gales during the whole
passage.
The Anchor line steamer Astoria,
bound for Glasgow, went ashore Sun
day in the lower bay, but later floated
without injury and proceeded.
In the river and harbor traffic was
for while during the worst of the
storm at a standstill. So heavy was
the snowfall that lights could not be
seen on the river boats length ahead
and 40 boats and other craft proceed
ed at a diminished headway. No acci-
dents of any moment were reported.
In the city the snow which began
Saturday afternoon fell almost with
out intermission until early Sunday
morning, by which time eight inches
had fallen. There was little Interrupt
ton of traffic, $4,000 snow shovelers
and 1000 teams being set to work as
soon as the snow ceased falling to
clean off the principal thoroughfares.
In the afternoon the weather cleared
and with the coming of bright sun
shine Central park and the speedway
were thronged with sleighs.
BY the burning of the Starin line
steamer Glen Island in Long Island
sound Saturday nine lives were lost
and property roughly estimated at
$250,000 was destroyed
That more lives were not sacrificed
undoubtedly was due to the personal
courage of the officers and crew and
the excellent discipline maintained
when horrible death for all seemed
almost a certainty.
Early Sunday morning the wreck of
the ill-fated Glen Island was found
with only the smokestack visible, near
eral manager of the Starin transpor-
tation line has sent divers to the
wreck and will spare no effort to find
the bodies of the seven members of
the crew and two passengers who per-
ished in the, burning steamer.

YOUNG WoMAN's BODY FOUND.
Was Without Clothing and Features
Burned Beyond Recognition.

Colorado Springs, Col, Dec. 19.-
Without vestige of clothing, her fea-
lures burned beyond recognition, the
body Of young woman was found
Sunday on the west slope of Cutler
mountain. The hands were clinched
as though she had died in agony. The
well manicured nails and the glossy
condition of the tightly coiled hair,
which the flames had failed to harm,
prove the young woman to have been
of the better class.
The case is shrouded in the deepest
mystery. No one has been reported
missing and strangers have been few
in this especial district. There are in
dications that the girl died of<poison
and post-mortem examination will
be made

USED DYNAMITE.
More Than a Mile of a Partly Com
pleted Pipe Line Blown Up.

Coffeyville, Kan, Dec. 19.-Between
Liberty and the Verdigris river, more
than a mile of the partly completed
pipe line of the Kansas Natural Gas
Co. was blown up with dynamite by
masked men some time during Satur-
day night. The perpetrators are un-
known. Besides being masked they
were otherwise disguised. The eXplO-
sions are the result of fight that has
been waged for some time against the
pipe line company, which is foreign
corporation, by the farmers of this
section, who resent the piping of the
gas to Missouri.
