West but Are Worse
in the East.
NEW YORK IN THROES
Railway and Telegraph Lines
Still Prostrated--.Dam-
age is Heavy.

Chicago, Jan. 3OvCold. clear wealth
er today succeeded yesterdays bliz-
zard through the middle west. The
damage done by wind and sleet can
scarcely be estimated Many cities
and towns are practically isolated and
train service remains demoralized.
In the Dakotas and Nebraska hope
is held out for an immediate improve
ment in conditions, and these, it is
promised, will rapidly extend to the
middle and eastern states which are
today experiencing the storm.
South suffers Most.
In the south the storm was the most
severe in recent years, and the story
of wrecked buildings, interruption to
wire communication, and general dis
tress is almost duplicate of that sent
from the north and northwest, Rail-
road traffic is also badly delayed in
Arkansas Oklahoma, Mississippi and
portions of Texas
Snow Is Deep in West.
Heavy snowfall in states to the west
and northwest of Chicago is the most
serious result of the blizzard. The de-
lay in freight traffic and passenger
service will probably continue for
some time. The loss of life, consider
ing the extent of the area afflicted, has
been Insignificant.
Reaches New York.
New York, Jan 30-The western
blizzard reached this city in full force
this morning, accompanied by high
west wind and heavy fall of wet snow,
succeeding a rainfall throughout the
night. 1t filled the streets with slip
perry slush which early threatened to
delay all means of transportation in
the city and suburbs except the sub
way.
Frequent accidents to pedestrians
who were blinded by the driving snow
were reported. Hundreds OF persons
sought shelter in municipal lodging
houses.
Records 30 Below Zero.
st. Paul, Mimi, Jan. 30-The cold
est point in the northwest today was
Minnedosa, Canada, the mercury being
80 below zero. The temperature, how
ever, is moderating and wind abating
in force.
Train still Missing.
Lacrosse, Wis. Jan. 30.-With the
thermometer registering 10>below zero
today, the blizzard still continues, and
drifts on tracks of roads are worse
than yesterday. No word has yet been
received from the st. Paul train stuck
in a snow drift near Jackson, MINI.
since Thursday night. 1t is expected
the passengers will be taken out safe
ly today.
Kentucky Feels Blast.
Louisville, KY, Jan. 30.-Kentucky
and parts of the sunny south are toda,
firmly in the clutches of a genuine
blizzard which has been raging fol
more than II hours. Wire communica

tense cold, high winds and snow.

ONE MAN DEAD ANOTHER MAY DIE
 IN AUTO RACE

New York, Aug. 28.-Little more than the first hour of the big 2-hour auto
 mobile race at the Brighton Beach Motordrome had passed last night be- fore one man had been killed and an- other was in such a serious condition as a. result of his injuries that his life
 almost is despaired of.
 Leonard Cole, who was acting as mechanician dn the Stearns car driven by L.arent Crosse, is the dead man, and Crosse himself is hardly likely to
 recover. The accident occurred just
 below the turn out of the stretch, op- posite the old clubhouse.
 The Acme No. 3, driven by Pat cheke, had just returned to the track after having gone into the paddock for a few minutes, for the replacing of a tire, when Crosse, who had maintained a prominent position with the Stearns from the outset of the race, came along at a high rate of speed. Ex- actly what happened it was impossible to see. It looked as if one of the rear wheels of the Stearns machine buck led at the instant it was coming up on the Acme, which had not yet gath cred it's full speed.
 The Stearns swerved wildly and be- fore Crosse could straighten it again cars went over in a tangled mass, and
 though there was a rush of attendants
 to lend help Cole was dead before he
 could be extricated. His body had
 been crushed under the heavy frame
 of his own machine. Crosse also was
 knocked senseless, and early today the
 doctors had not yet determined the full
 extent of his injuries, though it was
 plain they were grave.

MUSTN'T PLAY "FOR KEEPS"
Washington Boys Playing Marbles
Are Arrested for Gambling and
Well ScoIded.

Neutrality-suspicious. who play mar
bles "for keeps" are gamblers and are
liable to punishment for violation of
the law, according to the dictum hand
ed out by Judge Kimball in one of the
most unusual cases ever brought be-
fore the police court in Washington.
Three small boys were brought be-
fore the magistrate charged with par
ticipation in a game of chance. The
charge, lodged by the policeman maxi
ing the arrest, was sustained by the
magistrate, who delivered in forceful
fashion few ideas on what consti-
tutes gambling.
"The playing of marbles for keeps
is violation of the law" he said
gravely, "and as long as l am on the
bench | propose to break it up"
The Judge held that no matter what
the game may be, the element of
chance constitutes gambling. The
youngsters before the court were read
severe lecture and sentence was sus-
pended during their good behavior.
