New FORK, Jan. 26.-The clearing
weather which followed the great
storm of yesterday brought New York
colder weather than 1t has experienced
in many years. During the early
hours the mercury reached the zero
mark.
Terrible suffering is reported among
residents of the poorest quarters
where there were thousands of men,
women and children without sufficient
heat, clothing or food.
Kansas City, Jan. 26.-The weather
of the southwest has moderated today,
the temperature having risen twenty
degrees in the past twenty-four hours.
Eight degrees above zero is the record
here.
Lacrosse, Wis, Jan. 26.-Today is
colder than yesterday, the thermom-
eter registering at the minimum of
eighteen below.
Des Moines, Jan. 26.-The cold snap
has been slightly broken here today,
the temperature being at four below
this morning.
New York, Jan. 26.-Not since the
blizzard of 1883, by which all storms
are estimated as great or small, has
New York been so completely snow.

Inland from Maine throughout the
New England states and the middle

On the New Haven road very few

RAILROAD CUTS OFF PASSES.
Pennsylvania Politicians Now Must
 Pay Fare or Walk.

Philadelphia, Dec 9.-Perhaps the most crushing blow adm nistered in recent years to the Penrose-Durham state machine-more disastrous, in fact, than it's defeat in the state treas ury fight-is concealed in an order issued tonight from the main office of the Pennsylvania Railroad com panv. Th.s order cuts off all the free transportation that has been such an important factor in the work Of the state and local political organ- izations, and means that the bosses themselves, as well as their satel- ties. in future W Il pay their railroad fares or else refrain from travel.
 Following is the official and far reaching order: 'In view of the gen eral agitation on the subject of legis- lation on railroad rates and the aboli- ton of all forms of rebates and con- sessions. it has been decided by the management of the Pennsylvania railroad that all forms of free trans portation will be discontinued after the end of the present year.
