ing the team thru the alley back Of
teh Summit house, when the horses
came in contact with the wire, knock
ing them down, killing one instantly,
and badly stunning the other. Mr. Hart
was knocked off the seat by the shock
and precipitated with violent force to
the pavement He was stunned for a
few minutes and absolutely helpless,
and it was at first thought that he had
been electrocuted, but after being
picked up it was found that he had
fortunately escaped with badly
wrenched hip and some slight burns.
The team belonged to c. C. Way and
the horse that was killed was a very
valuable one.
The live wire was hanging across the
alley, and Mr.. Mart failed to see 1t. 1t

Fort Dodge. Feb. 3.-Two thousand
breaks in the telegraph wires between
Fort Dodge and Cherokee is reported
by the Illinois Central wire foreman
who returned yesterday from a trip
with the snow pillow over this section of

was caused by the fact that the sleet
froze to the wires in ribbons in some

no wire communication beyond Tara.
Engines with snow piows are at work

The company hopes to have one wire
in operation some time today. No

Trains Blocked.
Waterloo Feb. 3.-Tho the storm
abated Monday afternoon, the snow
ceased falling for several hours
and the wind su11ided, the railroads
are not thru with their numerous diff

the Albert Lea division of the Illinois
Central, where there was cessation
of transportation from $50 Monday
morning until $3.50 Tuesday The first
train TO arrive from the north since
Monday morning were passenger trains
Nos ia and 80. The cause of the
delay was the filing Of cuts with heavy
snow The northeast wind driving the
snow at right angles to the track
caused a blockade that was unpre-
cedented in recent years. Railway
men report the storm of Sunday and
yesterday was much more severe to
the north and weet Of Waterloo than
n other directions. The snow fall was
heavy.
