New York Freezing

New York, Feb 12-Wl,at promised
to be another of the winters traffic
blockading snow storms was checked
at daybreak today. A turn in the
weather conditions at that time
brought about a cessation of fall and
left four inches OF snow OH the level
in this city.
Two fishing vessels were victims OF
the storms fury. They were blown
ashore on Sandy Hook in the early
hours and only heroic work on the past
of the life savers prevented a disas-
ter to men on board. From one YES
sell, the Franklin ID. Nelson, eight
men comprising the entire crew, were
safely landed. The Nelson. it is fear
ed, will prove total loss. Shortly
after the Nelson struck the schooner
Libby was blown hard and fast ON the
sands of the hook. She had nine men
on board and the life saving crew at
the station got them safely to land aft
er a hard struggle. The Libby was
blown so high OH the beach that it is
believed she can he saved. Dispatches
from the northeastern counties of the
State report the storm there as the
most severe since 1888. The fall of

which they emphasized the necessity
of publishers and printers knowing
absolutely the cost of the work being

getting fair return in profit. In the

siderable loss because the publishers
sometimes did not take the cost into
consideration in their charges.
