USED SUBMARINE SIGNAL.
Whitney IN Touch rcith Lghtships-
May Stop Collisions.

Boston, Jan. 14-Interesting tests OF sub
marine signalling were made to-day on board
the steamer James S. Whitney, in her trip from
New-York TO this port. Communication by bell
signal was established with three Hghtships
while the steamer was some distance from them.
apparently showing that It is possible for YES
sells to signal each other and so avert collisions
On board the steamer were representatives OF
the Canadian government who made the trip
to test the efficiency of the system. By permits
sion of the United States Government, four light
ships on the course had been equipped with
submarine bells, which planned to be tolled
automatically.
The whitney left New-Yorl at midnight last
night, and it was expected that the first sub
marine signal would be received from the Vine
yard Sound Lightship. which the steamer APP
preached about s o'clock this morning. No
communication, however, was established with
the lightship, owing the Whitney's officers said.
to a misunderstanding with the crew of the
former.
About o'clock this afternoon the ship APP
preached the Pollock Rip Lightship the distinct
sound OF q tolling bell heard in the tele-
phone receiver stationed in the pilot house.
few minutes later another bell heard which.
the officers said was submerged at the Pollock
Rip Shoals Iightship. At this time signals were
distinctly heard from both the Pollock Rip and
the Pollock Rip Shoals rghtships. but the
Whitney passed one the starboard and the
other on the port side. It was impossible TO dis
tinguish clearly from which lghtshp individual
sounds were received.
At 700 o'clock tonight the Whitney neared
Boston Harbor the sound OF a bell was heard
clearly in the telephone receiver in the pilot
house The captain veered the course of his ship
at intervals that the sound of the bell was
heard both from the port and starboard sides.
Both the officers of the steamer and the OBJ
servers expressed themselves much pleased
with to-days experiments.

FREEZE BLOCKS TRAFFIC.
Stick an Ice and SnOW-Street Clean
ers PozcerIeSS.

The difficulties Of hauling COAL building materials
and provisions OF every kind were increased greatly
yesterday by the freezing OF the slush in streets
from which the snow had not been removed. Heav-
lily laden trucks and carts could not be drawn by
horses in many instances because the wheels were
blocked by the ice and snow or because the horses

there is usually heavy traffic. many teams were
stuck in the ice and snow. Provision merchants
were IN a bad plight because they could not move
their wares. The greater part Of West-st was i'm
passable and the were blocked much OF the
day. An attempt had been made to clear away the

was so much fee in West-st that every ferry had
q tangle OF vehicles which presented an almost I'M
possible barrier to traffic.
The Department of Street Cleaning seemed TO be
poweress TO remedy the difficulties. because in most
places the mixture of ice and was too hard to
be broken up with picks. All that could be done,
apparently. to wait for another thaw Com
missioner Woodbury. sent out an order TO have the
snow removed for car length at each crossing IN

This order was given account OF many com
plants that passengers were compelled to aIight In
snowbanks where cars stopped on the near side OF
the crossing.
