given OF a hitherto unreported and
abortive Zeppelin raid.
Francis Bennett Goldney. Conserva-

whether six Zeppelins had appeared on

mitted in reply tnat certain reports
were made on the night in question

The evening newspapers recall that

cently on a platform calling for i'm

ALL ENGLAND LASHED
BY FIERCE HURRICANE
Worst Storm in Years Cripples
Railroads and Telegraph.
tBy Cabl. 70 The Tribune ]

London, March 28.-The worst hur-
ricane and blizzard in the last half
century swept over England Monday
night, and, after a lull, again last
night.
Trains all over the country were
"lost' for many hours. Telegraph
poles were uprooted by dozens and lay
with the wires across the railroads.
Even when the poles were free Of the
wires the metal entangled itself around
the axles Of engines Express trains
crawled along at a snail's pace, stop
ping at every signal box and fighting
their way through the telephone and
telegraph wires which had been blown
across the lines.
Many parts OF England and Wales
were isolated. Birmingham was cut
off from thirty-three large towns and
sixty local centres by the telegrsphic
and telephone breakdown.
In some places the snowdrifts were
twenty feet deep.
