THE millenniu-
' A Fierce Storm Which Has Complete-
ly Paralyzed the Wires.
WIDESPBEAD DESTRUCTION.
Out of Nearly Fifteen Hundred \Vires
Running from the New York W'estern
Union Ofllce Only Two Are Working.
Pennsylvania and Jersey Suffer.
NEW YORK, Jan. 27.—:For pure, unadult—
erated destructivcness to property, espe-
cially that of the telegraph, telephone and
electric lighting companies, the great bliz—
zard of March, 1888, has been eclipsed, and
it can hang its head and pass into com-
parative obscurity. The battle of the ele-
ments was not a long one, but what it
lacked in length it masterfully made up in
' fierceness, and while it lasted it got in its
destructive work in the most approved
fashion. For the twelve hours which be-
gan at about 11 o’clock Saturday night
this city and all the surrounding country
suffered from a storm which was simply
amazing in its results.
Beginning as a rain storm the weather
suddenly changed at fifteen minutes before
midnight to a snow storm, accompanied
by a high wind. The result of this change
was to paralyze the whole electric system
of the city, and to render it in every district
Where the wires remained above ground
useless. Every principal street was in-
cumbered with entangled wires. Not only
was there a vast amount of damage done
by the falling telegraph poles, but the
danger of still greater destruction was
made imminent by the crippled condition
in which the police and fire departments
were left two hours after the storm had
begun.
9 Telegraph poles burdened with snow
laden wires fell in every direction, upon
railway tracks, against buildings and
across sidewalks, greatly impeding travel
and making such as there was extremely
dangerous. Numerous accidents are re—
ported as the result Of the storm, but no
one was fatally hurt.
The Gravity of the Situation.
The gravity of the situation can be
understood and appreciated to some ex-
tent by the following dispatch which was
sent out Monday morning to editors by the
United Press:
“The \Vestcrn Union and Postal com-
panies are still unable to furnish any wires,
and the blockade is likely to continue all
day. We are sending men to the nearest
points outside of the city at which wire
communication can be established, and ex—
pect to have news by train through this
source soon. THE UNITED PRESS.”
A reporter caught All Night Manager
Tobin, of the Western Union telegraph
office, just as he was starting for home
Monday morning. Mr. Tobin declared
that the storm had proved the most com—
plete knockout the wires have received in
years. Out of the nearly fifteen hundred
Wires running fromv the W'estern Union
office there were only two working. Mr.
Tobin said:
“Everything is completely paralyzed.
Business is at a standstill. The storm
struck us about 2 O’clock Sunday morning,
and one by one the wires began to fall, un—
til by 8 o’clock there was not an available
wire in the whole office. Out of a regular
complement of 125 wires to Philadelphia,
60 to Boston, 40 to \Vashingt-on and 50 to
Albany there are only two that are any
good, and these Albany has managed to
put through to Chicago by way of Buffalo,
which new forms our complete outfit. All
our Washington, Baltimore and southern
business is going to Chicago and from
there around by Cincinnati and Pittsburg.
“Innumerable poles are down between
here and Philadelphia, and we are sending
the business by train. Our city lines suffer
with the rest, poles being down all over
town. Only those Offices connected to N o.
195 Broadway through subways can be
reached by wire at all.”
At the Associated Press it was dolefully
admitted that not one wire was at their
disposal. Mr. Tinker, of the Western
Union, was asked for a full report and
statement of the condition of affairs, and
the Associated Press people were informed
of the facts stated above.
Philadelphia’s Fix.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 27.—-Philadelphia is
struggling through a maze of broken tele-
graph, telephone and electric light wires.
Never since the Quaker City saw a tele-
graph wirc has it been so completely iso-
lated as last night.
The \Vestern Union had but one wire
working out of 800, and the only points
the Postal could reach were \Vilmington
and Allanric City. New York was entire-
ly cut off and so was New England. The
Associated Press and the United Press were
totally paralyzed. Trains were delayed on
all railroads. At the Broad Street station
the Pennsylvania trains were from one to
six hours late. The railroads’ wires were
down and trains came into the station
without any announcement.
0n the Baltimore and Ohio the havoc
was even worse, 200 poles being down be—
tween here and Baltimore. No fatal acci-
dents were reported as a result of the
storm, but many falls in the slush caused
trifling injuries.
This morning the work of clearing away
the great mass of wires and broken down
poles was resumed with great energy. The
\Vestern Union put on a big force of men
in addition to the 200 who were at work yes.
terday and last night, and the postal, elec-
tric light and telephone companies followed
their example. So great has been the dam-
age that the work of repair goes on but
slowly, and a wire here and there is the
best the telegraph companies can do even
now.‘
Elizabeth Out ofTouch.
ELIZAIn-z'rn, N. J., Jan. 27.—This town
has not had such an experience with a
storm in the memory of its oldest inhab-
itant: that is, so far as the telegraph serv-
ice i s concerned. The \Vestern Union office
remains closed, the telephone system is
knocked out, and electric light wires and
the fire. alarm system are lost for the time
being. Every man who knew anything
about climbing poles and working about
wires was impressed into service, and con-
sequently many men who were out of a
job got something to do. Elizabeth is not
in communication with New York, New-
ark, Philadelphia and other principal
points. The fire alarm system has not yet
been restored, nor is the telephone in work-
ing order, but everything is being done to
got them in shape, and. they will probably
be in partial condition for use by night.
Newark Isolated.
NEWARK, Jan. 27.—Gangs of men are
hard at work straightening out tangled
wires and clearing away fallen poles and
branches of trees. Telegraph wires are grad-
ually in course. of restoration. The work
on the telephone wires is slow. Only a.
portion of these wires are in working or-
der. There is no communication with New
York over the trunk wire.
It is conceded that this storm did more
damage to the wires than any preceding
one. It is expected that the main tele-
graph and telephone wires will be in work-
ing order by night. The city is now in
communication by telegraph with some
points. Messages can be sent from Newark
to Philadelphia. Local telephone service
‘ has not yet been restored, except here and
there.
New England Catches It Too.
BOSTON, Jan. 27.—Reports from various
sections of New England indicate that the
storm was an unusually severe one. A
great deal of damage has been done to the
telegraph and telephone wires, especially
between New Haven and New York. The
Long Distance Telephone company had no
communication with New York for the
first time, it is said, since the company be—
gan to do business. Fall River, Mass, re-
ports a very heavy snow and rain storm,
accompanied by very high tides.
The Sound ho. is had a hard time around
Point Judith, but arrived at Fall River
safely, although late. At Manchester, N.
H., it is reported that the storm lasted nine
hours, and that fifteen inches of snow fell,
obstructing travel and prostrating wires.
Nashua, N. H., reports the worst storm of
the season, twelve inches of snow falling,
obstructing horse car travel and delaying
trains. Haverhill, Mass, was entirely cut
off from communication with the outside
world.
Storm Notes.
There was no direct telegraphic commu-
nication between Pittsburg and points east
of Harrisburg Sunday night. Two gangs
of \Vestcrn Union linemen left Pittsburg
early Monday morning to help repair the
breaks between Harrisburg and Philadel—
phia.
The storm cut off Wilmington, Del.,
from telegraph and telephone communica-
tion. It is thought it will require ten days
to put the telephone system in order again.
lVest Chester, Pa., was cut off from tele—
graphic communication by the storm. At
Downingtou dozens of poles are prostrated
along the flats, wrerc the ground is soft.
In some parts of Lancaster, Pa, great
balls of fire ran up and down the streets,
following storm broken wires, and caused
much consternation.
At Reading all the telegraph, telephone
and fire alarm wires were prostrated by
the storm, and the electric light circuits
were cut Off to avoid the danger of crossed
wires. The streets were left in darkness.
INGALLS’ CHANCES.
His Opponents Say He Can’t \Vin and
His Frirmls Say Ho \Vill.
TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. 27'.——Speaker Elder
said Monday that by no possible means
could Ingalls he re—electcd. "Ninety-one
members had signed an agreement, he said,
to vote to the last against Ingalls. It seems
to be the general opinion that W'. A. Har-
ris and John ‘Willets now have the lead
over the other Alliance candidates. Mr.
Harris is an ex-Confederate, and served
through thewar on Gen. Lee’s staff. This
fact has prejudiced some eighteen or twenty
old soldiers against him, and were it not
,for that it is generally believed that he
could win hands down. \Villet’s stock was
looking up today. His boom is a sort of
undercurrent affair. The other candidates
have about held their own.
All was activity at Ingalls’ headquarters
Sunday. His friends from all over the state
have volunteered as recruits in his serv—
ice. He held numerous conferences with
them Monday. They say Ingalls will sue-
ceed himself. The Alliance, they say, will
be unable to agree upon a candidate, and
enough votes finally will go to Ingalls to
elect him.
Killed and Injured in a Collision.
HELENA, Mon, Jan. 27.——A sleeper left
standing on the main track at Butte, on
the Northern Pacific railroad, was run into
last night by a freight. The sleeper was
demolished. The killed and injured are as
follows: H. XV. Lord, Devil’s Lake, N. D.,
killed; S. B. Calderhead, general passenger
and freight agent, Montana Union,» head
cut and internally injured; John Cottrell,
Dayton, 0., cut and bruised; his wife cut
and bruised; A. F. Cook, Seattle, VVash.,
scalp wound; Tim Donohue, engineer, leg
broken; Dan Lowrey, sprained ankle;
Charles Reed, fireman, bruised and cut.
H. WV. Lord, the only one killed, was hor-
ribly ground up.
Shot His Father.
BOSTON, Jan. 27.—-John F. Kelly shot his
father, Michael Kelly, aged 70 years, in-
flict-ing a probably fatal wound. The
Kellys live on the second floor of No. 32
Haskins street. It is alleged that Kelly
came home intoxicated and entered a room
on the first floor, in which a woman was
lying at the point of death. Kelly quarreled
with people in the room, creating a. dis-
turbance, and in a short time went up to
his own apartment. His father remon—
strated with him for his conduct down
stairs, when the young man shot him with
a revolver. Kelly was arrested.
. A Train Cut His Head 011'.
ATIIOL, Mass, Jan. 27.——The headless
body of a man, who had been run over by
the cars, was found by Track Walker Fay
on the railroad track, eight miles east- of
this station. The remains were removed
to Undertaker H. C. Duuton’s, and were
later identified as those of Frank Leonard,
of this town, The body was fearfully man-
gled and the head, which was found at
some distance beyond, was cut so as to be
unrecognizable. It is probable that Leon—
ard was intoxicated and was lying across
the track when struck by a. train.
Dropped Dead in a Street Car.
NEW YORK, Jan. 27.——John Herriman, of
65 East Fifty—fourth street, died suddenly
from a paralytic stroke in a Madison ave-
nue car. He was 62 years old, and fora
great many years was one of the leading
importers of this city. A year and a half
ago he retired from the firm of Morrison,
Herrinian & Co. with a comfortable fort-
une.
Resentenced to Electrocution.
New YORK, Jan. 27.—Harris A. Smiler,
who murdered his wife Margaret in 1890,
and who was convicted of the crime and
sentenced to be electrocuted in August
last, but got a. stay, was resentenced Mon-
day to die in the week beginning March 4,
1891. The court of appeals had denied his
motion for a. new trial.
A Child Fatally Burned.
NE .v BEnrono, Mass, J an. 27.—-Moses
Goclet, a barber, and his wife left home,
leaving five children in charge of the eldest,
aged 10 years. As one of the children, aged
6 years, was warming herself before the
stove her clothing caught fire, and she was
so severely burned there is no hope for he:
recovery.
1l‘lllllGHTlllllll hen
This Week’s Session of the Federal
Senate May Mark an Epoch.
A 1 GOUP D’ETAT EXPECTED.
It Will Be Sprung Early in the \Veek,
the Closure Rule Passed, and Then
the Adoption of the Elections Bill
\Vill Be an Easy Matter.
\VfiSHINGTON, J an. 27.—There is strong
ground for the belief that the federal sen—
ate will make history this week, and the
eyes of the country will consequently be
intent upon its doings. The victory of the
Republicans in securing consideration of
the closure rules has made them more de-
termined than ever, but success has by no
means blinded them to caution. fir. Mor—
ton still holds the key tO the situation and
he is only apparently awaiting a favorable
opportunity to use it. Report has it that
the crisis will be reached on Tuesdaynvhen
it is expected that the advocates of the elec-
tions bill will spring a parliamentary coup
d’etat, force a vote and secure the adoption
of the closure rule. The closure rule out
of the way early action on the elections
bill will be an easy matter. The main difli—
culty that confronts the Republicans is in
maintaining a quorum of their own mem-
bers. They think that the Democrats will
endeavor to break a quorum when it comes
to the question Of adopting the closure
resolution by withdrawing from the cham—
ber, and an effort will be made to keep Re-
publican senators in the chamber or near
at hand.
The Situation Critical.
Senators Stewart, Teller, \Volcott, and
probably Senator Jones, of Nevada, will
vote against the closure resolution, but it
is thought they will not assist the Demo
crats in breaking a quorum. Senator
Vlwashburn, who has expressed himself in
opposition to the elections bill, has voted
with the Republicans on questions con-
nected with the discussion of the closure .
resolution, and it is believed that he will
vote for its passage. Taken altogether, the
situation in the senate is critical, and this
week will probably bring matters to a. head.
The time of the house during the week
will probably be occupied with the con-
sideration of appropriation bills. The
naval appropriation bill, which has the
right of way, will be acted upon
first, and, just as soon as the naval
bill is passed, the legislative bill will
be called up. This will be followed by
the diplomatic and military academy bills.
The Democratic policy of delaying mat—
ters before the house during the pend-
ency of the closure bill and the elections
bill in the senate will be continued.
The Force Bill and the Fair.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.—The unexpected
entanglement of the fate of the Chicago
World’s fair with the fate of the force bill
has made a good deal of an impression on
some of those who are most zealous in try-
ing to pass the bill.
Southern members say that so far the
feeling in the south which has led to the
refusal of state legislatures to make appro-
priations for exhibits at Chicago is due en-
tirely to business considerations. “In my
state,” said Representative McMillin, of
Tennessee, “we have just got our finances
into such shape that we can meet the in-
terest on our bonds and pay current ex-
penses as they fall due. Now if the legis~
lature should make an appropriation of
$100,000 or $200,000 for an exhibit at Chi-
cago it would be a considerable strain on
the state treasury, and naturally the peo-
ple would only consent to it on condition
that the state would derive benefit from
the expenditure. Our people feel that if
the force bill passes a state of affairs must
result that would render vain any attempt
they might make to attract capital or im—
migration from the north or from Europe.
So, instead of throwing their money away
in an exhibit at Chicago, they will keep it
in the treasury.”
Bynum’s Views.
The unanimity of the southern repre—
sentatives finds an echo among the north—
ern men. lepresentative Bynum, of Indi-
ana, referring to the action of the southern
people, said that he was heartily in sym-
pathy with the south in the matter and
would, if a. member of a southern delega-
tion, vote against an appropriation for the
fair. Mr. Bynum said further that he re-
flected the sentiment of northern demo—
crats, and that be upheld everything that
had thus far been done.
The statement is made that northern
Democratic legislatures will soon fall in
line on the ground that if all the states do
not participate it will not be possible for the
fair to be a national success, and therefore
it would be extravagant and unnecessary
to appropriate money for exhibits. Twenty-
five southern men voted for Chicago as the
place for holding the fair. These are
among the congressmen who, in case the
force bill passes, will now oppose any ap-
propriation for the fair, not only in their
state legislatures, but in the next con-
gress. The southerners who voted for Chi-
cago were: Abbott of Texas, Alderson of
West Virginia, Anderson of Mississippi,
Brower of North Carolina, Bullock’ of
Florida, Cheatham of North Carolina,
Coleman of Louisiana, Crain of Texas,
Culberson of Texas, Evans of Tennessee,
Ewart of North Carolina, Davidson 01
Florida, Finley of Kentucky, Hare of
Texas, Honk of Tennessee, Latham of
Texas, Lewis of Mississippi, McCreary of
Kentucky, Morgan of Mississippi, Pendle-
ton of \Vest Virginia, Sayers of Texas,
Smith of West Virginia, Taylor of Tennes-
see, Turpin of Alabama, and lVilson of
Kentucky.
They Draw Two Salaries.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27'.—Considerable op-
position has been presented before the sen-
ate committce on appropriations to the
retention in the army appropriation bill of
the house amendment which provides that
no retired officers of the army shall hold
civil ofi‘ices under the government. Not»
withstanding the fight made against the
amendment the committee has decided to
allow it to remain in the bill. There are
at present twelve retired army officers re-
ceiving double pay—pay as a retired army
officer and salary as an officer in civil em-
ployment under the government.
Gen. Rosecrans, the register of the treas-
ury, receives as a retired brigadier general
$4,500, and his salary as a register, $4,000.
The next officer on the list is Gen. Smith,
who receives $2,100 as a retired major, and
$4,000 as disbursing officer in the corps of
engineers. Both of these gentlemen were
placed on the retired list of the army a few
years ago as a. reward for past services.
‘ Both generals are Democrats, and are hold-
ing dver from the Cleveland administra
1011.
The remaining officers on the list an
i .
:aptains and lieutenants who have been
an the retired list for years, and were put
l receiving severe wounds or by reason of
broken health resulting from active serv—
ice.
It is understood that a vigorous effort
‘ will be made to defeat the house amend-
ment while the bill is before the senate.
l
I A Veritable DIorgue for Bills.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.——The percentage
; 3f bills introduced in congress that reach
the last stage of legislation—the approval
or disapproval of the executive—is very
small. Up to the present time, including
ithis session and last, 13,250 bills and 273
joint resolutions have been introduced in
. the house. Of this number 12,209 were put
l in last session, the remainder this session.
l
Of these 33,515 have been considered by
committees and reported to the house.
ll‘hrce thousand two hundred and forty-
,three were reported last session and 272
‘ this session. The conunittees of the house
- have done little this session, and there is
constant complaint from members who
have bills they want, considered that it is
almost impossible to obtain a meeting of a.
committee.
Of the 12,000 bills introduced last session
)nly 1,095 became laws. Of this number
36L were bills Of public interest, the others
private pension bills, claims, etc. During
this session the total number of hills which
have passed and received the signature of
the president is 65. Of these ‘33 were public
bills and 32 private. This is a very unusual
proportion, as ordinarily the number of
private bills passed is four or five times
greater than the public bills. Theindica—
tions now are that the record of the Fifty-
first congress when finally made up will
show that the number of bills introduced
has been greater than in an y other congress,
and the number passed will be smaller than
In several other congresses.
Hearst’s Condition.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Sit—Last night Sena-
tor Hearst was reported a little better.
He rested quite comfortably yesterday, but
his condition is still critical in the extreme.
LUCCA BETIRES.
l‘he Pathetic Story of the Famous Song-
bird’s First Attempt.
NEW YORK, Jan. 27.—Pauline Lucca has
decided to retire from the concert stage,
but the news surprises no one. Yet the
old time concert goer, if a man, shakes his
head and sighs; if a woman, drops a tear
of regret for the wonderful voice and radi-
ant face known in the past. Her life story
—perhaps all life stories would be if they
were as well knowu—is an interesting one.
One of its most chararacteristic incidents
is told by one who
knew her well in
later life. When
she was about 8
years old—it was
in 1852—shc was a
half charity pupil
in a s c h o o l a t
VVien. Besides be-
ing poor she was
stupid in her stu-
dies (so she told
this friend), and
was also of unat-
tractive personal
appearance. Her
teachers, with one .5 .,
exception , loooked fl, _"
upon her .w1th the PAULINE LU C c A.
same mild con-
tempt which characterized her treatment
by the other and more fortunate pupils of
the school.
At last the end of the school year drew
near, and brought with it the annual ex-
aminations. The mother was present at
the exercises, and when she saw how plain-
ly poor little Paulinc’s poverty showed in
spite of her own loving handiwork the tears
began to roll down her cheeks. By and by
the other pupils rose to sing, Pauline alone
remaining seated as usual. But this day
she was not content to be passed. She re—
solved to do something which should make
them all forget her improvised dress and
her plain place. She gazed imploringly at
the master.
“Can you sing?” he asked.
“I think so,” she answered without a
falter. ‘
“If you want to you may try ‘there the
May Breezes Blow,’ ” he graciously grant-
ed, touched by the pathos of her appear-
once.
Lucca says: “Many times since then I
have sung before great audiences made up
of finely dressed and distinguished people,
but I have never put more effort, more en—
thusiam, more ambition into my voice than
I did then. I sang ‘Ma-y Breezes,’ but after
I had finished it they would not let me
stop. I sang every song I knew, and when
I stepped from the platform I was nearly
deafened by applause, and the tears had
gone from my mother’s eyes.”
PAULINE
llIcKinley and Bismarck’s Policy.
BERLIN, Jan. 27.——A German newspaper
in this city publishes an interview which
its correspondent at \Vashington has had
with Mr. McKinley. In this interview
Mr. McKinley is represented to have said
that Prince Bismarck’s policy of limited
protection, which had in twenty years
brought Germany up to her present condi-
tion of prosperity, induced him to take up
the tariff question in the United States.
Mr. McKinley is also reported to have said.
that it was his intention to visit the ex-
chancellor in order that he might person-
ally express his admiration of that states-
man and of his policy.
\Von’t Work Overtime.
New BEDFORD, Mass, Jan. 27.———A strike
will probably be inaugurated in “’amsut‘
ta mills Nos. 1, 2 and 3. It is desired by
the mill managers to shut down next Sat.
urday to repair the engine, and notices
have been posted in the mills requiring the
operatives on five afternoons to commence
at 12:45 p. m. and quit at 7 p. m. At a.
meeting of the spinners of the three mills
it was voted almost unanimously not to
work overtime. Tuesday the spinners will
go in, but if overtime is insisted upon they
will come out.
Rioting in Scotland.
GLASGOW J an. 27,—In a riot between the
railway strikers and the police at Greenock,
on Saturday night, several police were in-
jured. Disorders also occurred at Perth.
.The North British Railway company has
sued the Railway Servants’ society for
£20,000 damages for causing the strike, and
has attached the funds of the society.

And the best lamp
ever made, like Alad- ‘ '
din's of old, a “won-
derf'ullamp !" Alamp
absolutely non-
explosive and un-
breakable, which
givcs a clear, soft,
brilliant white light
of 85 candle power!
Purer and brighter
than gas light, softer
than electric light,
more cheerful than
either! That lamp is
“The Rochester.”
And with it there is'no smoke, no smell,
m2 broken chinmeyx, no flickering, no sweating,
no climbing up of the flange, no “ tantrums"
nor annoyance of any kind, and it never
needs trimming. Its founts (oil reservoirs)
being tough rolled seamless brass, with cen-
tral draft, it is absolutely unbreakable,
and as safe a: (5 (allow candle.
Only five years old, and over a million amia
half in use. It must be a GOOD lamp to
make such a telling success. Indeed it in,
for lamps may come and lamps may go, but
the “Rochester" shines on forever! We
make over 2,000 artistic varieties,—Hanging
and Table Lamps, Banquet Study, Vase and
Piano Lamps,—0Very kin , in Bronze, Por-
celain, Brass, Nickel and Black Wrought Iron.
Ask the lamp dealer for it. Look for the trade-
mark stamp: “THE ROCHESTER.” If he hasn't
the amine Rochester and the style you want,
ori no lamp-store is near, send to us for
catalogue (and reduced
rice-list), and we will box and send you any
amp safely by express, right to your door.
