TeIeqrams To the East Must Travel
Over Circuitous Route.-Storm
Grips All Territory South
and East From City.

st. Paul, Jan. 15.-One Of the worst
blockades of recent years is tying up
railroads, street railway lines, tele-
graph and telephone companies thru
the Ohio valley, in the southern lake
region, in New England and the South

The tieup is so complete that ship.

valley district are stalled miles from
their destinations and a shortage n
threatening.
Reports from Chicago are that the
big dairy companies are facing the
grave problem of how to care for the
thousands of hungry babies in the
city.
The same conditions exist in all Of
the larger cities, from southern Mime
sofa and northern Iowa eastward thru
the south lake region to New England.
Wire Traffic Demoralized.
The telegraph and telephone COM
panies are in bad shape, especially In
the states bordering on the great
lakes. During the morning there was
only one direct wire working between
the Twin Cities and the East.
Almost the entire telegraph bust
ness between Minneapolis and the
East is being done over the Canadian
wires by slow and circuitous route
The wires in the South are also
working poorly, especially in southern
Illinois. The wire of the East are
heavily handicapped, and conditions
are far worse than in the West. Here
service to the West and Southwest is
unimpaired.
Trains Are Late Here.
Trains from Chicago on all thu
roads are from one to six hours late
Many of the early morning trains die
not arrive until noon and the trai1
crews report the worst storm in years
in the Chicago section.
The weather bureau says, that tn
storm is the one which was scheduled
to spread over the country early II

Trains Lost In Snow.

Columbus.-Two passenger trains, a
snowplow and a loose engine were
lost on the Northern Pacific tracks
during the storm, according to rail-
road men. It is believed they are in
the vicinity of Grey Cliff, sign post
between Big Timber and Columbus,
but this is mere surmise. The block
ade is effectual. Cuts are filled with
fine snow, packed as hard and solid
as ice and upon which snowplow
has about as much effect as it would
have on a mountain of granite.

OCEAN CRAFT GREET HIM AND
HE Returns TO THE
COURSE.
DARING ATTEMPTS CONTINUING
Effort to Drop Ammunition on Target
Proves Partial Failure Curtiss
Beats Frenchman and Holds
Record for Track.

Los Angeles, CAL, Jan. 15.--An un-
successful attempt by Charles K.
Hamilton, in a Curtiss biplane, to
break Paulhan's record for height, and
a trip by the Frenchman from Avia-
ton Field to the sea and return, were
the leading events of the fifth day OF
the aviation meet. Engine trouble
caused Hamilton's failure.
Paulhan tried to make a speed rec
ord of the course for one lap. NOT
only did he fall below Curtiss' time,
but in descending his machine tilted
and struck the ground, breaking one
of the lower plane tips.
Before he retired for the day, Paul
han took Cortlandt Field Bishop, pres
ident of the Aero Club of America, as
a passenger for a two lap journey
around the course.
Lieutenant Paul Beck, U. S. A. sig
nal corps, attempted to drop bag OF
ammunition into a measured space
from a Curtiss biplane ESQ feet In the
air. The idea was to find out whether
it would be possible for an airship to
drop bombs into gun pits, but the ef-
fort was a partial failure because OF
engine trouble.
After three attempts Curtiss sue
ceeded in keeping the speed record for
| the course at one lap.
On his trip to the sea Paulhan feW
| Is miles as the GROW flies. AS he
drew near Wilmington, Long Beach
and San Pedro harbor, he was greet.
ed by roar of whistles from tugs
and other craft in the, harbor. He
sailed above the wireless telegraph
mast at the harbor entrance and
sailed back AS he appeared over the
crowd again he received another
hearty welcome. The Judges paid nc
attention to the performance as Paul
han had not announced that he In
tended to do anything.
New Record for Course.
Curtiss started the official events by
making a trial to set new speed rec
ord for the course of mile and half
His first attempt was 2:34 is and the
second 2:20 3-5. Not satisfied will
this he made another attempt and Sc
the mark of 2:12 fiat, the official rec
ord for the course.
Roy Knabenschue and Lincoll
Beachey announced speed trial TO-
the course in their dirigibles. TIT
race was the first for dirigibles owe

1880 Knabenschue later exceeded hi
own speed record for the course in hi
dirigible, making it in $40 2-5.
Hamilton went up after the slov
record of the course, flight of muc
interest from the standpoint of tn
tractability of the machine. He wen
at a rate of mile and half in 1885,
and Willard, in a Curtiss machine
