over the management of the county iaiis in Connecticut.
 It is pointed out by the advocates of the change that the state is at heavy expense each year-about s130t- GOO in 19i2--for the payment of board, or a part of the cost of boarding, prisoners held in. these various county jails. Notwithstanding this heavy expenditure, the state has little or nothing to gay about the management Of the, laiIs and has no representative on the boaruS rnat have the admins tration Of the county jails in charges ---the county commissioners, although those officials render statements rela- tive to the jails to the state.
 It is realized here that such an un- dertakiag as is planned presents a problem. that requires. careful study and, attention before any positive ac- ton Is taken, hence the advocacy, of the appointment. of @ commission to get all the data available, but cer- tain fevs Of the present system are held. to be so glaring as to demand the attention Of those who would have the st9te know ali about how it is spending its money.
 The Windham County jail has been a conspicuous example of excellent management for years past, but for the whole state the advocates of state management favor taking the admin 3stration Of these institutions from the county commissioners for the req sons set forth and others fully as inn portant if not more so.

NEW ENGLAND COAST
 DASHED BY STARM.
Damage to Telegraph and Telephone Wires in Eastern Connecticut and Rhode Asisnd.

Boston, Jan. I3.-The northess st quadrant Of the Gulf of Mexico dis turbance of Sunday gave Southeastern New England hard flashing today. Features of the storm were the un- usually high tide that swept into Mas Sachusetts bay in the forenoon and the danla =. to telegraph and telephone wires in, bristol county, in Rhode Is land and in Eastern Connecticut.
 The tidal rise in this city cami within 1.22 feet of the record estab lished In the famous gale of 1851 when Minot's Ledge lighthouse was deS- troyed and was the flfLh big tide in the last fifteen years. .
 Summer residences close to the shore lines from Newburyport to Providencetown were badly battered especially at Plum Island. Lynn, Ma haut, eYere Beacn, Winthrop, Nan tasket, CChasset and Narshfeld. The tide stopped railroad traffic in Win tllrop and IIecessitated the slowing Up of all trains near Plymouth and on Cape Cod
 Wet snow added so much weight to wires south of this city that hundreds of poles vent down when the gale reached l1urriCau velocity. The worst break was at East Providence, R. l., but lines to Fall River and New Bed ford were in bad shape, while New port. R. l., was off the map completely
 Except for Q few small craft that were thrown up on the beaches, and a, schcS1er in distress within four miles oi Boston -wharveE, no marine accidents had been reported up to dark tonight
