Streets OF City Thronged with Skat-

Philadelphia, Feb. l3.-Philadel-
phia's streets for several hours today
resemblcd a vast network Of frozen
canals and for the first time in years
it was possible to traverse the city
from one end to the other on ice skates.
Great throngs Of skaters were out,
while the few pedestrians who ven
tured forth struggled to maintain
their equilibrium. Scores of persons
were slightly injured by falling. Au-
tomobiles and horse-drawn vehicles
were unusual sights until a binding
snowstorm, which set in shortly af-
ter noon, spoiled the skaters sport.
a sleetstorm. which continued all
last night, was responsible for the
unusual condition. Solid ice nearly
an inch thick formed in the streets
and on telegraph and telephone wires.
Wires and rail communication in all
directions was badly crippled.
At nightfall the snow ceased falling
and traffic conditions again became
normal.
