ANOTHER COLD NIGHT
Mercury in the Thermometer Down
to Zero This Morning. River
Blocked.

The snow storm which set in Thurs.
day evening continued throughout the
night and all day yesterday. It was
accompanied by keen northeast WIND
which caused drifts in many places.
The steam and electric trains were run
with difficulty, and it was impossible
Tor them to make schedule time. The
electric railway company operated
single cars between this city aud Wash
ingtou. The ferry steamer Alexandra
was compelled to lie up at her slip IN
Washington.
Early last night the SHOW ceased
to fall and later the heavens be-
came clear. The air was keen and
and most people were driven within
doors by the intensely frigid condi-
lions.
At IN carly hour this morning the
mercury stood at zero, and at nine
O'Clock, in some places, it had not
stirred from that point, and at noon 1t
stood at 10 degrees. Some thermora
eicr< registered degrees below zero
early this morning.
The steamer Southland from Nor
folk arrived at this port about two
hours late. She reports the ice as
excluding almost to the Kettle Bot
toms. As has been the case during
the week, the steamer was compelled
to break her way through it all tho
way to Alexandria.
The Chesapeake BAY is so filled with
ice that navigation is seriously imped'
ed and dangerous. The chanue
buoys' have swept away. making u
| impossible for heavy draught vessel
to enter Or leave the harbor OF Bah
more. Boats for Norfolk remained IL
port until this morning, prcfcrriut
daylight battlcwith the ice.
