Feb. T. New York today started to dig itself out of the most severe snowstorm of the winter. Snow, hail and sleet, carried on the wings of a lifly-mile gale, fell steadily during the night and early morning hours, dogging the streets nnd side walks of the metropolis with great drifts, demoralizing street car traffic, delaying (rain service, seriously imped ing navigation in the harbor nnd caus ing intense discomfort to pedestrians. The- Pasadena, a summer hotel on Ihe beach at the foot of Kighthy-flftlr street, liiooklyu, was washed into New York bay by the surf. The police re ported it a total loss. The high tide flooded the Erie Ter minal in Jersey City and ferry service to New York -was discontinued. Some New Jersey trains were two hours late arriving at Jersey City owing to snow- (iritts. Three Long Islnnd Sound steamships were fast in the ice today near Execu tion Light, off New Itochellc. N. Y., and sound shipping was virtually at a standstill.

No report had been received today from' the Lexington, which left New York for Providence last evening. Although squads of motor sweepers were kept busy all night cleaning tracks, street cars moved at a snail's pace und blockades were the rule. Tens of thou sands of workers on their way down town forsook the elevated und trolley lines nnd swamped the subways. The icy conditions of the sidewalk coupled with the gale made walking perilous. Nearly all the incoming trains at 1hc Erent railwav terminals were far behind ! their schedules.

JERSEY RAIL TRAFFIC VIRTUALLY TIED UP Thirteen Cars Jump Tracks, Many Others Stalled, Says Trolley Official Camden's trolley lines are almost completely tied up. Officers of the Pub lic Service Railway Co. sny that the storm has been the most troublesome in their recollection. A snowdrift has stopped all cars ou the North Cramer Hill Hue at the Sfiite Street bridge. The Ilnddon Heights line is stalled south of Wondlynno. Eight cars are off the track. Ilnddon avenue is blockaded by stall ed car". At Forty-fifth and Federal streets two cars are off the track. A few cars are runniug ou the Tren ton line, hut they are being moved with difficulty. (Jars are completely stopped on the Blackwood and the Almonesson lines. Shipyard employes living in outlying sections found it hard to get to work. Some were unable to report for duty this morning. William Graham, superintendent of the Public Service Railway , said that tratDc on the trolley lines suddenly stopped this morning after -in appui cntly good start, yvns niadey A rar jumped tlie track at Twenty fifth and Federal streets und another nt Forty-fourth nnd Elm streets, block ing traffic to Merchantville and Pen sauken. Cars to Hnddonfield ami Colling.s wood, he said, were brought to a stop because the track was obstructed by a car which had been brought to a stand still by a dead motor. Another stalled car tied up the Had don Heights line. "Nine cars jumped tho track," he suid, "on the line serv ing Blackwood nnd Almonesson. Threo cars jumped the track between Camden ami Delnir. tying up for a time the service to Trenton. Graham said that some of the cars stalled at the Statu street bridge arc deep in snow drifts. These must be dug out beforo tho line can be re opened. Train and trolley service in South Jersey, between Camp Dlx. Mount Holly and Camden, was held up for hours this morning by huge piles of drlftsnow. Trolley cars at some points were stalled iu snowbanks all night, marooning tho crews.

AUTOMAT SKYLIGHT FALLS ON PATRONS eight of snow piling up in the light well of the building at S18 Chestnut .street broke the stained glass skylight of the Automul restaurant of the Horn iV Hnrdart Haking Co. about S o'clock this morning. A mass ot snow and broken glass fell upon persons seated at the. tables. One man was injured. He was Jo seph A. Slattery, of 312 South Fifty sixth street. He was cut by splintered glass. The other patrons of the place scram bled from the snow nnd helped to get Slattery out of the "lass that had cov ered him. His injuries were slight. The restaurant is on the ground iloor nnd part of it is at the base of the light well, the skylight forming the ceiling. This skylight was of ornate stained glass and above it was ro-en-forced giass to protect the stained glass and give the covering greater strength. So much snow descended into the restaurant that it was necessary to close the doors temporarily and call upon the entire force to help in clear ing away the mass. HEAVY SNOW CAUSES ROOF TO COLLAPSE Overtaxed by the heavy snow on the roof, and swaying in the high wind, an unoccupied stuble on the north side of Christian street east of Seventh, col lapsed at S o'clock this morning. It wus a two-story brick building, and had been unoccupied for somo time. lioys are believed to have weakened he joists in taking wood from the place, aud this morning the roof aud about live icet of the brick wall suddenly col lapsed with a roar. Several pedestrians had narrow escapes from injury under 'he falling wais lln(I debris of the roof. When it was reported n boy had been trapped in the building Detective Rego, of the Seventh and Carpenter streets station, entered and conducted a search. Police of the Second aud Chris, tian streets stution later closed the street to traffic in anticipation of a further collapse of the building.
