New York.-The cold snap in the
Eastern section Of the country, which
sent the mercury in many places to
lower figures than have prevailed for
years, was measurably broken when
the temperature rose to somewhere
near the normal winter average.
The effects Of the abnormal tenn
train blockades in upstate sections,
where snow accompanied the cold,
were only partially raised. while ice
barriers in harbors along the coast
made navigation difficult and in some
places impossible.
Morning temperature readings were
still at low points, below zero reports
coming from Albany, where 10 was
reached. Buffalo 2, Portland, Maine,
6. and Providence, 2, while Canton, N.
Y, was the coolest spot in the coun.
try, with % below. This city's low rec
ord was below.
New York harbor was about as
nearly ice-bound as it ever gets. The
surface Of the bays was thick with
heavy ice foes and navigation was
difficult.
Suffering in the poorer quarters OF
the city during the frigid weather was
intense. Two deaths from the cold
and many cases OF collapse from ex-
posure were reported.
Seven persons were overcome by
gas and seventeen horses were
drowned as the result Of the burst
ing Of gas and water mains in an up
per West side street. Apartment
houses within a radius Of block were
evacuated. The police and others res
cuedrseven persons overcome in their
