CONDITIONS BETTER.
Timely Snow and Rain Storm, Helps
the Mills at Brunswick.

Brunswick, Me, Dec. 7.-Three
inches of snow followed after daylight
by a heavy rain, today bettered the
water power conditions along the
Androscoggin river The Cabot cotton
mill, which it was feared at midnight
because of a sudden drop in the river
could not be operated today, started
part of its machinery at the usual
hour and the whole of it was running
at 9 A. M.
Conditions on the river improved
steadily after midnight. The cause or
the sudden lowering of the river was
the holding back Of the water by up
river mills over Sunday The CABOT
mill will run nights, if necessary, TO
make up what time may be lost IN the
daytime.

Portland, Me-, Dec. Rain for
which the farmers and mill men of
Maine have been hoping and praying
for weeks, fell over the western section
of the State today. 1t somewhat re-
lievei the drouth, which has lowered
the rivers and dried up many of the
streams upon which scores of pulp
mills have depended and have been
forced to suspend. Other mills also
have been seriously handicapped
The rainfall was not general, how
ever. The storm had not reached East
port at A. NJ, there being but a
trace of snow there at that hour Ban
gor and Lewiston at the same time re-
ported snow. The rainfall at the wealth
er bureau in this city amounted to .54
inches at 8 A. Nj.
The wind reached a velocity of AZ
miles All hour from the southeast at
the weather bureau at 1890 A. NJ The
prediction was made that it would
Shift to the west and be colder tHnight.
There has been no rain in Maine of
any account since the middle of No
vember, when half an inch fell, and
there has been no heavy rain for
months, so that the amount of precip-
itation is far behind the average
The wind just before noon was blow
ing at the rate of Sc miles an hour,
which has been exceeded only four
times in 35 years. The tide was the

Boston, Dec. IA lively storm from
the south reached New England carly to-
day, but as the center crossed this sec
tion we'll to the north the resultant winds
in a greater part of the district were
from the south and southeast and there
fore warm and the precipitation was
mostly rain.
The wind speeded up to velocity of As
miles an hour at 10 A. NJ. in this city, the
hardest blow since last spring, While the
rainfall at noon was one inch, more than
fell in this city during the entire month
of November and the heaviest since Aug.
for single storm.
Up to noon no disasters had been re-
ported on the coast, although the surf
was tumbling heavily on the sands of
Cape Cod and the rocks of Cape Ann.
Shipping clung to safe harbors and those
vessels which were caught offshore hur-
ried into port.
Three vessels lying in the upper harbor
lashed together, the schooners Henry S.
Little and Three Marys and the barge
Ernestine, broke from their anchorage
during the storm at noon today and We're
driven ashore on Bird Island bats. 1t was
thought that they would be fioated later
without damage.
