The weather bureau was affected BY

Southwest storm warnings wer,

changed to northwest. Warnings TO,
the Gulf coast were hoisted from
Tampa to Key West.
Both telegraph companies reported
late last night that they were serious

of the Bell Telephone Company was
badly hampered. From late in the
afternoon until early this morning
few wires out of Charleston were
working. and these did not connec

1t is expected that the telegraph

the resumption of service it will bt
known what damage was done by tho
storm in this section.
The high winds are declared to b
caused by the Western blizzard, which
Is scheduled to bring another severe
cold wave into this section, the
| weather bureau having warned OF
this.
For all practical purposes Charles

wire communication was concerned.
In Charleston for several hours the
wind howled dismally and creaking
