which the fire department suppressed the

Excellent Judgment Displayed.
He especially notes the fact that the
firemen displayed excellent judgment and
care in confining the flames to the room
where they originated. avoiding damage
from the excessive use of water, and that
the fire was no sooner under control
than they promptly disposed of the wa

preventing it from soaking through the
rooms beneath, where official records
would have been damaged.
From Mr.. Smiths report to me I do
not see how the efficiency of the District

LINCOLN, Neb.. Feb. 9.-Railway men,
street car managers and telegraph COM
panies are today struggling against a bliz-
zard which seems to be general throughout
the state. A rain set In last night. There
was thunder and lightning, all the features
of an autumn downpour. Later the rain
changed to snow. the mercury dropped to
zero and the wind attained a velocity Of
iifty-two miles an hour.
Warned by the weather forecast yester-
day, the street car companies were pre-
pared. Snow plows were in readiness and
nearly all the lines were open for traffic
this morning.
Railway trains sre belated on all the
roads, the cutting wind and intense cold
making traffic difficult,
The telegraph companies soon repaired
the damage to the lines and handled the
business with slight delay. The telephone
companies also anaged to keep in COM
munication with the larger cities in the
state.
Signs were blown down and plate glass
windows were smashed. 1t is estimated
that Lincoln merchants sustained a loss of
