New York. Dec. 3s.-Northern and
eastern New York and New England
are slowly recovering today from the
damage inflicted by yesterdays storm.
A succession Of rain, sno1v, lightning,
sleet and thunder, winding up with a
gale that tore down wires and trees,
unroofed houses and drove shipping
ashore, caused widespread damage and
many deaths and accidents.
Geographic communication in some
sections was still interrupted today
owing to the Ievelling of telegraph
poles by the high wind.
In q similar manner the signal sys-
TENS of railroads running north and
northeast from New York were Grip
pied and trains were not able to main
tain their schedules.
New England suffered more severely
than NV York, and reports from there
told of sever damage to buildings and
vessels caught IN the path of the gale.
The snowfall, except in northern New
England and northern New York, was
comparatively light, but was sufficient
to interrupt suburban street car serv-
ice.
Eight deaths in this city were di-
rectly or indirectly attributed to the
storm. The wind here at one time at

Texas and Pacific Alleged to
Have Defaulted on Inter

Dallas, Tex. Dec. 27.-Receivership
fer the Texas & Pacific Railway com
pany was asked in a petition filed here
today by the Bankers Trust company
of New York through their local at
torneys. Default in payment of inter-
est on bonds is alleged. Hearing was
set for January 81.
Attorneys for the railroad served no
tee that they would contest the re-
ownership.
The petition, which applies also to
the New Orleans railway a
Texas & Pacific property, alleges de-
fault on interest and principal of $14,-
600, 900, second mortgage bonds origin
,ally in 1888 for $25, 100000 and since
reduced.
The complaint alleges diversion of
funds after the payment of all operat-
ing expenses CT the road and asks a
full ~recounting of funds expended, a
revision of accounts in the complain
ants favor, a foreclosure and sale of
all properties mentioned under the Sec
ond mortgage, from which they want
payment of their claims.
George J. Gould is chairman of the
Texas & Pacific, which operates under
federal charter. The road was con-
structed in the '70's and it's main line
extends from New Orleans to Ell Paso.
Officials of the road here said the fl
ing of the suit was a complete surprise
