Tip for Small Traders.

Now that the stock markets are under headway and the outlook strong for ad- vanclng prices 1t becomes the part of common prudence for small traders to get their money out of bucket shops and keep 1t out. If there Is any fact that is well established 1t Is that bucket shops cannot live in a genuine bull market. They stand towards their customers in precisely the same relation that a faro bank does to the gamblers playing against it. The bucket shops take the money from their customers as a bet and nine times out of ten minor speculators are bulls, the shops lose every time the market advances. When the market ;akes an upward sweep 1t spells ruir. for the bucket shops and they lay down by hundreds. When a shop fails It's custo- mers get nothing, or next to nothing The warning cannot be sounded too loud
 ly or too strongly keep away from the bucket shops If you make money on your trades you will stand to lose 1t in the inevitable collapse of the institution in which you have your cash Tn th,s connection 1t Is of interest to recall Tom Lawson's wild outcry against "the svs- tenn and his persistent efforts for tho year past to stem the market tide. This IS mentioned because of the often re
 curing rumor connecting the mama of a certain Boston egotist with bucket sbop manipulation. it even being charged that he is the real packer of a chain of New England shops It Is recognized that the system is inflexibly bulllsh at this time and that it's larger interests arc openly and earnestly enlisted on that side, 1T by aiding in the uplifting of the stock market 1t could cripple an indus trious and pertiferous bushwhacker ana at the same time break the bucket shons of the country. including those of New England, the system would experiencs a glow of righteous satisfaction. This suggestion Is put out for what 1t is worth. 10

LONG ISLAND HELPLESS.
ALL TRAFFIC BLOCKED.
Thousands of Commuters Are I'm

Outside of Brooklyn and the busiest part OF
Long Island City, the storm tied up Long Island
absolutely. The Long Island Railroad fought
losing fight until the mid-afternoon' ana tnen
ceased TO run out trains Efforts were made to
get the trains still on the road into some ter

the lines radiating from Long Island City and
Brooklyn, and orders were sent TO the terminai

Every trolley car on the entire island outside
OF Brooklyn and Lcng Island City ceased to run

New-York From o'clock on no wheels moved
on the island east of Jamaica, except the snow
pIoughs which driven by three, four ana nve
engines made seemingly useless EFFORTS TO clear
the rails Within a few minutes after the
plough would pass the wind would swirl the
snow back and there would be no trace OF the
work The men in charge reported to head
quarters that their efforts were useless
shortly before noon yesterday an engine with
three passenger coaches attached TO it, which
made up a train on the North Shore Division,
1urnped the tracks at Borden-ave. and 3d-str
Long Island City and carried one OF the pas
senger coaches from the rails with it. The three
coaches were filled with passengers, but aside

slight wreck Of yesterday.
PASSENGERS STALLED ALL DAY.
The Greenport accommodation, Conductor
Cunningham, which left Amagansett at $40 a.
M, became stalled in twenty-foot drifts in Shin
necock Hills a little later. There were seven pas
sengers on board. including several New-York
persons. All day long they remained on board
afraid to incur the perils which attended the
three mile walk back to southampton through
the binding snow and piercing winds They were
without food, while the night in the drifts which
threatened them caused more discomfort than
the absence of food. Just before dark one of the
Long Island Railroads monstrouS snowpIoughS
pushed by two engines succeeded in reaching the
stalled train, and, with the assistance of third
engine, which arrived later, succeeded in reach
ing Good Ground. The passengers were accom-
modated there. Among the passengers were H.

Goldstein, all of New-York: I. w. Wanera, of

HARBOR TRAFFIC STOPS.
Big Fleet Stormbound- -FerrybOats

Little shipping moved in the harbor yesterday.
No skipper of an outward bound vessel had the
tsmerity TO risk his boat in the snow obscured

Hook or Quarantine Anchored off Quarantine
or in Sandy Hook were the Germania, from Ma
pies; the Menominee, from London; the Rotter-
dam from Rotterdam; the Benefactor, from
Philadelphia and the big tug Cuba, with two
barges. for Boston All the Sound steamers
reached the wharves all right, but the outgoing
steamers stayed tied up, freight being refused.
The Ryndam, for Rotterdam; the Nord Amer

Indies; the Eastern Prince, for South America,
and the coasters Alamo. Comus and Princess
Anne were unable to sail. They will probably
get under way at daylight to-day.
The Trojan. from Matanzas, sugar laden, broke
away from her wharf at Arbuckles Stores in
the morning, and drifted below the Fulton ferry
before she caught. Northeast of Robbins
Reef there is sunken sloop. very likely a stone
lighter, which was reported by a Staten Island
ferryboat.
BY o'clock the ferries were either suspended
or running on fog schedule, which is no schedule
at all. The Ellis Island ferryboat was stopped
at 2:30 o'clock The 39th-st ferry had stopped
by that time and none Of the other lines al
lowed more than one boat at a time to feel her
way cautiously by compass across the river.
The local towboat feet went out of commission
early. Fred Dalzell, almost the largest owner
in the harbOr, did not send out single boat,
and few other owners would risk their boats for
any sort of price.

FEARS FOR STEAMER.
Ship Thought To Be the Parthiaraia
Drifting off atlantic Citg.
[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. ]


Atlantic City, N. J.. Jan. 25.-The entire coast
of New-Jersey has experienced one of the most
severe billiards that has visited this section or
the State in many years. Damage that can
not at this time be estimated has been wrought
and at present there may be ioundering in the
teeth of the gale the good steamship Parthiania,
which, drifting past this city this morning. loud
ly whistling for assistance, startled the people,
who, hearing the shrill call for help that could
not be given. of the opinion that the boat is
now tightly held on the treacherous Brigantne
phia to Boston, sailed from the former city on
Wednesday afternoon, which, considering the
severe storm. would bring her opposite this
place early this morning.
While the blizzard was at its height Captain
Holdsom of the Brlgantine nfe-saving station
heard the call for assistance All night the life
saving crew had remained on duty. The men at
once tried to launch the lifeboats Twice they
attempted to get through the heavy surf only
to be driven ashore again by the high sea, the
breakers Of which were reported to be the most
hurled the snow in the faces Of the men. and
after another attempt to go to the vessel the
crew was forced to watch it slowly drift in the
direction Of Egg Harbor. when. owing to the
wires being down, no further news Of the ship
could be had. When still drifting out Of sight it
continued to whistle for assistance. Late this
afternoon the beach at Observation-Disclosures. was
strewn with lumber giving lurid testimony that
some coastwise schooner laden with this kind of
cargo had become wrecked. 1t was impossible

grocers fuel dealers and other tradesmen certified
by the captains sergeants in each precinct the
amounts to be paid later by the society. In this
way scores of families in need OF food fuel or
other necessities were aided.
One of the worst and earliest Of such cases was
that Of the family OF John Morano, Italian liv-
Ing with his wife and eight children the youngest
a year old, at No q Cherry-st Morano had had
no work for several weeks. and there was neither

he gave Morano an order for provisions. and the
officers in the station made up a purse of several
dollars more.
