and the Plan Was Successful.
New York, Nov. 28. When the peo
ple of New York awoke yesterday
morning- they found the blizzard that
raged when they retired was Btlll In
progreFS. The storm, which began
with a soft, sleety snow on Saturday
at noon, Increased greatly as the day
wore on with heavier snowfall, the
wind blowing- a gale at midnight. There
was a slight abatement of the wind
yesterday, but the snow still fell and
drifted high and thu temperature drop
ped rapidly.
It looked in the morninB as though
the blizzard would continue all day,
but at 10 o'clock there was a breaking
away in the west, a brightening of the
light, and finally the storm ceased al
together, and the severest blizzard
since the memorable one of March,
1E8S, came to an end. The wind blew
at the rate of 59 to 60 miles an hour
during the height of the storm. Snow
fell throughout New York state. The
fall In New York city, the weather
bureau rtfports, was about 10 Inches
Philadelphia. 9 inches: Boston. G inch
es; Portland. Me., 4 Inches: Albany, a
little over an Inch. The lowest tem
peratures reported were: New York
city, 25; Albany, 18.
With the brightening of the' skies In
this city came an increase in the
velocity of the wind, and the loose dry
snow was sent swirling and eddying
everywhere. Nearly a foot of snow had
fallen, but in places it had drifted to
four and five feet. The peculiarity of
the storm was the encrusting of nearly
every window, the sides of buildings
and trees, and when the storm cleared
away the great city was transformed
into a spectacle of glistening white of
surpassing beauty. Broadway and all
the great thoroughfares ot the city
presented a fantastic appearance. In
the greatest artery of business activity
of the country there were drifts on the
sidewalks, through which the early
morning wayfarer plowed to his waist.
An order was sent out from police
headquarters to the various precinct
commanders to have arrested all per
sons found alone in a condition that
would raise even the suspicion of In
toxication. As a result the police courts
yesterday were crowded with eminently
respectable looking persons, who were
let go with a small fine and an ad
monition to get out of the snow. Not
withstanding this precaution on the
part of the police there were a number
of casualties, Including several deaths
from exposure. John Martin, 65 years
old, a former Insurance agent, was
found In the park at Tenth street and
Avenue B and taken to Bellevue hos
pital. Both tils legs and hands were
badly frozen. He Had lain down on a
bench to die, he said. He had had noth
Ing to eat for several days. An unknown
woman was found unconscious In a
snow drift at Seventy-eighth street
and Avenue A. She was removed to
the Presbyterian hospital, where her
condition was said to be serious.
An aged German, Frank Schneider,
of Dutch Kills, Long Island city, was
found Inte Saturday night at Seventieth
street-and Second avenue. He was
lying on a snow hank, almost uncon
scious, and was transferred to Belle
vue. An unknown man, discovered In
a basement on the Bowery and re
moved to Hudson street hospital, died
there from alcoholism and exposure. A
policeman rescued Dennis Quinn, a let
ter carrier, who had fallen helpless In
the snow early yesterday morning, bad
ly frozen.
In Jersey City the body of Ifosanna
Cunningham, 42 years of age, was
found on the sidewalk in Van Vorst
street early In the morning. Her skull
was fractured. The body was almost
covered with snow. It is believed she
received her Injuries from a fall.
At 7 a. m. a policeman found Charles
Schopp unconscious In the snow In Jer
sey City. Before lie could be carried
Into a house Schopp died. He had
started for a butcher shop, where he
was employed, and his death is attrib
uted to exposure and exhaustion from
his struggle through the blinding storm.
George Beck, 42 years old, and William
Allen were also found In Jersey City
by the police badly frozen. The for
mer had been drinking and was uncon
scious, and Is likely to dlo.
jonn lionan, wnue on a street car,
