20,687 Men and 2,671 Trucks

and thousands of snow shovelers con
tributed to bring about almost natural
conditions of transportation and wire

being restored rapidly and regu
lar trains were being resumed.
Virtually all of the lost trains on the

found early to-day. In New Jersey,
where the force of Saturday and Sun
day's storm did the most damage,
large forces of linemen began gather
ing up the tangled telegraph and tele
phone wires, more than 800 miles of
which were still down, together with
1,000 poles.
Milk trains which bring in the
larger part of the milk consumed In
the greater city, began running on
slightly delayed schedules and perish
able freight long delayed in drifts is
being rushed to markets here. It was
believed that deliveries to-day would
cause a tumble in the price of eggs
: which the storm caused to soar to
fifty cenis a dozen yesterday.
| The snow continued to melt to-day,
(making easier the task of clearing the
streets, many of which In residential
| sections have been practically block
laded since February 13. The street
!cleaning department hoped to repeat
'yesterday's performance when 121,-
386 cubic yards of sno.v was removed.
A total of 20,687 men and 2,671 trucks
