WINTER MAKES AN
EARLY CALL IN
P|TTSBURG
Heavy Snowfall in aid About
the Smoky City
WIRES DOWN IN BIG AREA
Other Sections Reported to Have
Suffered from Stern and Low
Temperature.
WIRES DOWN IN BIG AREA

pittsburg, Penn, Nov, l0.-An cX.
raordinary snow, sleet and wind
storm visited the section of the
county about Pittsburg yesterday
and continued last night, Gripping
transportation facilities and pros
traiing wire communication over a
wide area. During the day 10 inch
es Of snow fell, four inches more than
ever fell during any November since
1886 The barometer registered
1906, CT about one inch below nor.
NAL, and this incident Of the s,orm
is viewed rs remarkable By the Pitts
burg officials of the United States
scatter bu'esu. Throughout tho
day q wind from the northwest blew
90 miles an hour. while the tempera.
,ure dropped from As to % degrees
in less than Is hours.
Preceded. by heavy rains Friday
and Saturday, SNOW began falling at
O'Clock yesterday morning. Within
few hours the wires, poles and
trees were sagging under the heavy
weight Of Wet snow. Before noon
railroads, trolly lines and vehicle
traffic were battling with the Cie-
nonts in an effort 10 continue opera
tons. Toward evening the themo-
meier tumblcd rapidly and tile water
md snow froze. This condition prac
tioally demoralized telephone lines.
Soon after noon. the Western Uu-
ION telegraph company reported all
wires down to New York, Columbus
aud Cleveland. The Postal teleg aph
company was tied up by the storm 0
sll points from here. Telephone Wir-
cs to the outside world were useless.
Last night the Western Union sue.
cceded in making ND wire circuit
70 The principal ci,ies east of Pitts.
burg and west TO Chicago and Louis.
Vile. But one wire, however. was
wol king to Cleveland. Late in the
night this failed. cutting tho Chic city
rii from ali outside communities ion.
The Postal company WAS unable
% reachNew York Baltimore, Wash
.ngion and Cleveland from Pit;sb5rg
last night and but ont wire was
working between Pltisburg and co.
'umhus. This wire later was cx,end-
cd to Cincinnati. louisville. indian
lpclis and Chicago Wheeling. W.
Va, was reached by telephone wire
though Columbus O.. while for the
greater part Of the night OH city,
Titusvillo and points nor,h of Pit,s.
burg were cut olf from all manner 81
communication. Efforts 10 reach
Veg Virginia points other than
wheeling were futile. Train service
cast and west Of pitsburg is serious
ly handicapped, with through trains
running hours late aud trains of les
ser Importance either held up at a.
vision points or annuiled entirely.
In Pitisbu & and vicinity the storm
was especially severe. There is no
wire communication TO The suburbs
In Monongahele valley leading east
from Pittsburg the Allegheny county
tight company last night reported
1 hat over 1000 wires were down. The
storm was passing north in the dircc
ton of lake E-ic last night parts
Of West Virginia and eastern Ohio
are believed to have suffered consid
cradle damage, but attempts TO gel
! into communication with these points
have been futile.

 ried To Hospital.

As result of collision with an electric current. yesterday afternoon about , o'clock, Joe Tucker, the negro foreman of the crew laying the street car tracks at Fourth and Main streets is now lying seriously injured in a local hospital.

AS soon as he was struck by the wire the negro was knocked unconscious and it was thought he had been killed. His fellow workmen, however, labor ed with him, rubbing him, etc., and finally restored him to consciousness He was then taken to the MannTan- kersley drug store at West Second avenue and Pine street, where tenn porary medical aid was given him. From that place he was rushed to the Davis hospital in an ambulance of the Holderness undertaking estab- lishment.
 Latest reports are to the effect that he is expected to recover.
