Superintendent Miles, of the District telephone and fire-alarm service, said this morning that the wires were in no better condition to-day than they Were yesterday. Last evening, after many breaks and crosses riong the lines had been fixed, they tested the working of the lincs and were able to sound alarms of fire from a number of boxes, but the high winds last night undid what haa bess done in the Way of repairs, and to.day alarms can only be turned in from three engine-houses—the sixth, seventh, and second. The Inemen’ were sent out again this morning, but, owing to the high winds, they are not able (o accomplish much. ‘Tne telephone service ts also badly demoralized, And but tew of the lines are in working order. ‘The Hnemen on the District telegraph ‘nes aid good work to.day notwithstanding the high winds, and this afternoon five of the eight police pre. cinets were connected by telephone with head- qnarters, and before night it 1s expected that com. munication will be had with all the police stations and engine houses, ‘The Delayed Railroad Trains. ‘This morning @ Star reporter called at the Baltl- tween but the Western con- as the workmen clean the cuts of snow to allow the trains to ‘the wind drives the snow into again and fills them up.

Whut They Say at the Signal Oftice, GEN. GREELY'S REMARKS ON THE LOADED -TRLE- ‘GkAPH POI SANCR, BTC. “J hope that this storm will carry conviction to Congress,” said Gen. Greely to a STAR reporter Unis morning, “that the overhead wires ought to be abolished, except perhaps for local work. It would be money iuthe pockets of the Western Unton and other telegraph people to bury all of their wires, To be sure, tbe expenditure would be siderable at first, but fu a few years the money saved from the cost of repairs would more than amount to the original outlay. Just ‘see What It would have avoided if the wires had been under ihe ground, alongside of the rafiroad tracks, Instead of being strung on poles along the way, ready at the first strong wind to topple over, endangering life and delaying travel! You see the way tiey load the poles, sometimes with 40 or 50 wires, caitses it to be possible for the breaking of only a few of them to so tangle the rest that they are all useless.” “THIS STORM 18 UNPRECEDENTED,” he added, “at this time of the year. 1 do notthink that the temperature has ever before been 80 low | Cut Off from their Papers. ‘BARD TIMES OF THE CORRESPONDENTS IN TRYING TO GET OUT THEIR SPECIAL DISPATCHES. ‘Most of the correspondents were cut off trém their papers completely last nignt, and this morn- tng they do not find themselves any better off. ‘The Postal Telegrapir Cable Co. did not lose ts connection with Baltimore, and yesterday opened connection with Palladelphia, Pittsburg, and the West, Some dispatches got out in this way.
