Traffic Interrupted Over Large Area. New York, March 3.—Points as far west as Cleveland and as far south as Baltimore were battered by wind, stung by sleet and buried with snow in a terrific storm, central over the states of New York and New Jersey. In New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania between elght and elev- en inches of snow, layers of it packed hard and frozen, covers the groundl and the storm continues, Not in twenty-five years had Greater New York and environs experienced such a storm. At times the velocity of the wind reached eighty-four miles an hour. Eight deaths here were re- ported. Traffic everywhere in the storm area was demoralized. In some cases it was interrupted entirely. Hundreds of telegraph poles in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania were down. Eighty-five thousand commuters on Long Igland were marooned and resi- dents of New Jersey coming to the city were from one to five hours late. Snow Still Falling, Snow, which had ceased for a few hours during the night, began falling again. The gale formed big drifts in the country districts and added to the troubles of the railroads. More than 10,000 men under the di- rection of the street cleaning depart- ment attacked the snow to keep traf- fic open in a few of the principal busi- ness streets. Fire alarm circuits in all the out- lying districts of New York city, Jer- sey City and Hoboken were demoral- ized. In New York firemen were sent out on patrol duty, while in New Jer- sey hurry calls were sent for all po. liceman and firemen off duty to re- port. The Western Union Telegraph com- pany reported that only five of its out of town wires were up. The worst of the storm is between New York and Albbany, according to wire offi- clals. New York’s financial district was al- most entirely shut off from the out- side world by reason of the severe weather. With the exception of a single line to Albany communication with Wall street was almost at a standstill. Trading was correspond- Ingly light, with a downward tendency of prices. FOUR DIE IN PHILADELPHIA Forty-thrée Mile Wind Drifts the Snow "Badly. Philadelphia, March 3.—The bliz- zard, which has raged here for twen- ty-four hours, has abated. The rail- roads appeared to be the worst suf- ferers. Four deaths directly due to the storm were reported in this ecity. According to the weather bureau five Inches of snow fell, but the forty-three mile wind drifted it badly. The Pennsylvania road is suffering from a scarcity of men to shovel snow. Three hundred were ordered east from Pittsburg, 800 from Altoona, 160 from Wilmington, Del., 200 from Baltimore and a trainload from Har- risburg to help clean up the New York division. The snow drifted twelve to fifteen feet high near Bristol and Trenton. IS LIABLE TO BRITISH TAX Mrs. Drummond Must Pay on Sums From Husband’s Estate.
