TUESDAYS BLIZZARD.
Worst Storm of Season Blocks High

The SnOWStOrm which invested Au-
gusta and the rest of Maine yesterday
was the worst Of the season and pos
sessed many of the features of Il west
ern blizzard. The snow commenced
falling at about $50 in the morning,
with the mercury at degrees above
zero. and the storm increased in in
tensity so rapidly that at o'clock it
had almost reached the proportions Of
blizzard 1t was accompanied by a
high wind from tho northeast which
drove the flakes before it in clouds.
and to add to the disagreeable features
of the storm the temperature had fal-
len until the mercury registered de-
grces below zero.
1t was the toughest day Of the win
tor The snow being light was driven
by the wind into drifts and in the early
morning hours the many roads leading
from the rural districts into the city
were so blocked that it was impossible
to get a team through them, and the
rural mail carriers were prevented
from making their daily trips.
The Electrics were put hors du COM
bat, ana while cars were run on the
main line during the day no schedule
was maintained and the Togus and
Winthrop lines were l1ilt entirely out
Of commission. On the Maine Cen
trial there was also trouble, and while
the morning trains We're not seriously
affected the afternoon schedule went
all to pieces.
Train No. II, the Boston and Bangor
express, due TO leave Augusta at 90.
was over four hours late and did not
get along until after $50, while train
No. 10, which goes cast at 3.25, was
sent ahead of No. II, and left for the
east at 5.35. Train 102, which goes
west at 40, was over an hour late.
The evening trains, Nos. %. 30, IL
and >, were also away off the schedule,
while the afternoon and evening
freights, Nos. IS. 80, 81 and 80. were
all cancelled. The schedule had not
