New York Digging Itself Out of
Snowstorm That Paralyzed

THREE SHIPS ICEBOUND
l!y tile Associated Press
New YorK. 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. The vessels in the ice were

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.

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

nnd a mnu clad in a soldier's uniform.

volver in his hand and ordered her to
halt.
Instead of obeying, she said, she
sprang at the man and the two strug
gled for several minutes, the. man ap
parently not daring to use his weapon.
Then the soldier appeared and, seeing
Mrs. Donnelly in the grasp of Runco,
it is charged, struck the man a swing
ing blow on the jaw, Runco dropped
unconscious.
While Runco was being taken to the
Fourth street and Snyder avenue sta
tion, the soldier walked away. His

tho Assembly judiciary committee,
which is trying the five suspended So
cialists charged with disloyalty, expect
to close their case lato today, John B.
Stanchflcld announced.
Mr. Stnnclifield said ho did not know
whether a summing up would follow
final Introduction of evidence. This
will be n matter for tho committee to
decide. In any event, ho added, if the
last tcstlmbny to be offered by his side
were presented this afternoon he would
ask for adjournment until next Tuesday.
Tim prosecution also has announced
lis intention of reading into tne record
evidence nt another investigation of L.
C. A. K. Martens, Russian soviet "am
bassador."
Mnnmt-hlln nfflcinl stenntrmnhers re
cording the proceedings and Issuing

f ninsel. have exhausted the local sup
ply of Rtiltable paper nnd yesterday sent
n trucK out ot town ior uuuiuuuui
"tons." The record now Includes
nenrly 2000 pages. ... , ,r
At the opening ot toaay s nearing air.
Stnnclifield referred to the challenge
yesterday of S. John Bloch. an attorney
for the defense aud president of tho
company which publishes the New York
Call, to prove the statement that ou
February 10, 1012, the paper carried
"in lurid headlines "'o ncti witn tne
flag'."
Mr. Stnnclifield said that while he
apologized for stating "lurid head
lines" contained this expression, he
nevertheless would read from that issue
an article from which, he said, tho com
mittee could determine if his statement
was unjustified.
This article, which referred to sol
diers as "weak-minded scabs," asked
the rhetorical question of whether the
uniform should bo honored and replied
that It should be spat upon. After de
nouncing the capitalist class, it closed
with the sentence:
"Down with the Stars and Stripes;
up with the red flag of humanity."
