W. B. AND A. CARS BLOCKED.
Low Water ct BeBDings Causes Power
To be Shut OF.

AS the result of a peculiar condition
in the Anacostia river at Washington.
d. c., all trains of the Washington,
Baltimore and Annapolis Electric
Line were temporarily put out OF
commission shortly after o'clock
last evening. At IL O'Clock at night
normal conditions we're resumed.
The railroad derives its power from
the Behring'S power station Of the
Potomac Power Company, which is
on the Anacostia river. The north
west gale restrained the tide to some
extent and forced the water in the
river bed to point lower than the
intakes for the boilers in the power
station. The result was that the
plant was forced to cease opera :
tions, and this not only tied up the
trains on the Washington, Baltimore
and Annapolis road but cut of
the power from the Washington.

road and all other SUBURBAN lines
running out of Washington.
In addition to the tying up Of the
electric traffic, the stoppage Of the
power plant caused nearly all street
and store lights in the District Of
Columbia TO so out.

STEAMER TEXAS SAFE
At CLAIBORNE PIER
Undue Alarm Over Safety OF
Eastern Shore Vessel.
NOT CAUGHT IN STORM.
Blow Last Two Years Worst Since
1888 Senator Watkins Narrowly
Escapes Injury While Driving.

The anxiety felt last night over
ne st lamer Texas, which did not
make her run from Claiborne to
Annapolis vest srday, was relieved
rhis morning when an official Of the
Eastern Shore Steamship Development
company stated that the vessel was
safe at Claiborne, having been pre-
vented from leaving her dock because
4 the extreme low tide.
A report was circulated last night
het the steamer was aground 10
CASTOR Bay, with a large number
~ passengers aboard. This, how
yer, lie untrue. The steamer made
her regular run today, the storm on
the bay having abated.
Conditions on the bay were worse
han they had been for years.
Traffic was at o standstill, and many
1oats which left Baltimore yes
.erdy were compelled to seek shell
Ter here. OF these, however. none
IRE large steam srs, the majority
being sailing craft. Some were in a
bad condition and were leaking, but
10 fatalities have been reported.
Shippers declare the storm 20 be the
worst they have ever experienced on
The bay. Mountainous seas they say
swept across the decks, cakiug the
ships with ic'.
The steamer Gen A. j. Durmont,
4 the Eastern Shore Development
company, which has been lying in the
severn river for the winter, was
blown dang rously close to shore Sun
day night and insiderable difficulty
was expt rienced in preventing the
big steamer from being dashed 10
pieces. Waves washed her decks and
the crew was kept busy all night.
widespread damage throughout the
state was reported by members OF the
General Assembly, who managed to
make their way to Annapolis last
nj Eht. Heavy SHOWS are reported
throughout the western counties, ac-
compa1ied by hurricane like winds.
All wires between here and the East
ern Shore and Southern Maryland are
down and grave fears are felt for oys-
ttrmer who live along the shores of
the hay.
Men who came here last night said
that several small shacks we're torn
to pieces and blown out into the
water, but no loss of life resulted.
Heavy SHOWS have tied up all traffic
ines ia Garrett county, In Oakland
the wind is said TO have done consid-
cradle damage. Some houses were
emolished.
Anne Aruudel county experienced
the worst storm since 1888. Many
persons narrowly escaped being in
jured by falling trees, and while no
fatalities have been reported, grave
fears are felt for the southern part
Of the county, which is cut off from
all communication with the outside
world. Repair crews are fighting
yamely to establish communication,
but as fast as they put line in order
il is blown down again.
Senator Watkins, who reached here
about 9 o. clock, said that he narrow
bly, escaped being crushed to death
several times while driving here in
his buggy by falling trees. Twice,
be said, the carriage was nearly
blown over.
