STORM OF YESTERDAY.
Telegraphic Communication Through Eastern New England Crippled.

Boston, April 9.-It is seldom that the second week of April brings such wintry storm as that which prevailed throughout New England to-day, Cold, disagreeable conditions which set in last Saturday seemed to culminate to- day in a disturbance which attacked New England from the south and dragged into it's unusually deep vortex northeast gales accompanied by snow, rain, hail and sleet. Telegraph and telephone wires which withstood many severe snow storms during the past winter fell under the weight of wet snow and sleet, and for several hours tonight telegraphic communication throughout eastern New England was prostrated.
 The storm center, unusually we'll de- fined and with almost a record-break- ing low barometer, passed across Cape Cod in the vicinity of Hyannis about dark tonight The barometer at Nan tucbet sank to 2S.S2 and in this city to 2S.S6 the latter being within .OS of an inch of the Boston record.
 The storm was general over the great CT part of New England and in most localities snow fell to the depth of several inches. Little damage was done to shipping along the coast.
