Scores of Lives and Millions
In Dollars Lost in
Blizzard.
RAILROAD HELPLESS
BEFORE THE SNOW
Most Trains Are Limping In Many
Hours After Their Seized
uled Time.

Definite reports today from the
storm that swept the East show the
blizzard was the fiercest in years.
The New England States suffered
most. There fierce winds piled
heavy drifts across railway tracks,
isolated small cities, and worked
havoc in larger cities.
The tidal wave that swept the
coast cost at least q dozen lives and
million dollars in property.
In Chelsea, which bore the brunt
Of the wave, 1000 are homeless
SNOW STORM HEAVY.
In New York the winds were
not so fierce, but the snowfall was
heavy. The police this afternoon
attribute fourteen deaths to the
storm. Incalculable suffering was
entailed because relief workers
were unable to reach the poor.
Because communication from
many points is absolutely cut of
it was hard TO estimate the exact
damage even today. Trains that
ran pulled out between twenty-four
and thirty-six hours behind time.
At Plymouth. Mass, the death
toll wSs uncertain. Portions Of yes
sells lying in that harbcr drifted
ashore, and it is believed that
number Of them sank
Vessels Ice Coated.
Vessels arriving in New York hsr-
Dor today were coated with ice. Many
Of them had been on the outskirts of
the tidal wave, and their crews consia-
cred their escape fortunate.
Theatrical companies are stranded ~
out-of-the-way points. and more than
one theater viii be closed tonight
The tail or the storm hit washington.
and the Capital escaped the disasters
OF many Northern cities. The city was
srcwbound FOR a while from outside
communication. but the street car lines
here did rot stop running for an ap-
3rtcisble tire, the Washington. BaIt-
more and Annapolis electric railway line
4 kept up communication between Wash
ington and Baltimore. and the tels-
graph and telephone companies man
aged TO continue communication with
nearby points
Nearly every city along the coast IS
street cleaning today. and the process
Will be costly. The New York street
department estimated that Il would cost
about 500. coo to clean the streets
thoroughly The Philadelphia street ca
companies were heavy losers The en-
/ tire system was tied up for a time, ana
heroic efforts were necessary before the
/ cars started running
I The damage reports from small towns
were still incomplete today. At swamp
scott, Mass. the waves swept away the
! breskwaters and flooded the cellars.
The damage to Lynn, SwanpsCott. and
Nahant aggregated about S1O0,0o0.

WELL-PLANNED MOVE

NEW YORK. Doc. s7.-There was a
Wild half hour in the New York Stock
Exchange this morning beginning at
the tap Of the gong. when a bull move
ment sent Rock Island UP from SOS
20 81. where the bears smashed the
prices back to 81
Il was all the fault OF the snow-the
snow delayed one broker who was load
ed down with selling orders, and pre-
vented him from arriving on change in
time to peddle out the stock to another
broker loaded down with matched or
ders to buy stock from the missing
operator and to advance the price OF
Rock Island shares at the same time.
OF course the snow was to blame, the
snow and the storm.
But when the governors Of the StocB
Exchange start their investigation t'
find why Rock Island shares rose from
5O9s to 81. and dropped back to 81 again II
less time than it takes to tell the story
they will not place the blame on lhe
spotless snow; they will not suspend
the snow. they will not expel the storm
they will look back Of the brokers.
