Blizzard RACES on Atlantic Coast.
New York on Monday began to
emerge from the storm which rail-
road and telegraph company officials
assert has been the most destructive
in this section of the country since
the memorable blizzard of 1888.
Reports from other cities showed
the damage caused by wind, snow,
rain and sleet to be widespread.
From st. Louis on the west and
Baltimore on the south to the Cana
dian and Nova Scotian borders, the
storm has been general. In New
England further damage is expected
from rivers and streams swollen by
melting ice and snow. In and near
New York eleven persons persisted
and several fatalities were reported
elsewhere.
In New York. New Jersy and
Pennsylvania, between 8 and IL
inches of snow, layers of it packed
hard and frozen, covered the ground.
Not in 20 years had Greater New
York and environs experienced such
a storm. At times the velocity of the
wind reached "a miles an hour.
Traffic everywhere in the storm
area was interrupted and in some
cases demoralized entirely. Hun
dreds of telegraph poles yer carried
down. Eighty-five thousand COM
muters on LonC Island were maroon
ed and residents of New Jersey ON
ing to the city were from one to five
hours late.
In the Pennsylvania station forty
sleeping ears remained on the tracks

sengers.
In the waiting rooms were hun
dreds of persons waiting for the re-
sumption of traffic. Lunch rooms
and dining halls were kept open all
night for their accommodation.
Three trains en- route from Phila-
delphia were stalled at Trenton and
their passengers were sem to hotels
by the Pennsylvania railroad. Some
where in New Jersey a train with
Vice President Marshall as a passen-
ger was believed to be proceeding
slowly toward Washington. An ex-
press train that left New York, Sun
day at A o'clock, reached Philadel-
phia, two hours distant, after twenty
one and a half hours.
On the twelve-mile stretch of the
Lehigh Valley line between Jersey
City and Newark 1913 poles were in
the path of trains. The Federal Ex-
press, which left Washington Sunday
afternoon over the Pennsylvania
lines arrived in New York at 1927
Monday night.
The train delays interrupted the
transportation of mails and left the
city facing a possible shortage of
milk, meat and provisions. A coal
famine is threatened because of the
snow filled streets, which are almost
impossible after a snow fall of be-
tween thirteen and fourteen inches.
Owing to the fire alarm telegraph
system being interrupted 700 fire.
men were assigned to patrol the M
protected districts.
o. r. Wheelock of Cleveland, o..
was overcome while returning to his
hotel from the Sunday revival meet
ing in Scranton and nearly 1900 per-
sons were marooned all night In the
Sunday Tabernacle, unable to get
home.
Ella Sweeney, % years old. was
found frozen Il death at Hazelton,
Pa, in a sleigh, where her COM
panion, James B%artholdi, had left her
in the storm while he went for help.
The young woman had become cold
and terror stricken over the raging
storm. Bartholdi stopped the horses
within 200 yards of shelter and
tramped two miles over the mountain
for assistance. He was not permitted
to make the return trip because OF
his exhausted condition.
