OVER EASTERN S1A1ES
FROM LAKES TO GULF.
From Atlantic Coast to Nevada
Bitter Cold With Heavy
Snow Prevails.
A blizard of unprecedented severity is
sweeping over the country east of the
Cascade mountains, the same story of
snow and cold coming from all direc
tions. Dispatches show the limit of the
Btorm to be Nevada in the west, the At
lantic ocean in the east, the great lakes
in the nort'u and Texas and Georgia in
the south. Tho only country free from
the blizzardly conditions is west of the
Cascade mountains.
Chicago, Feb. 18. The whole coun
try from the Atlantic coast to the west
ern slope of the Rock; mountains is suf
fering from the coldest weather known
in February for years. The snow storm
whidh swept over Rocky mountain states
has travelled east and south till it covers
the whole region as far north as New
York on the east and the gulf states on
the south.
Beginning in Wyoming and Utah(
where extreme cold and deep snow have
caused great loss of live stdck on the
rarge, the storm extended gradually un-'
til Kansas is under a foot of snow and !
has a tempeiature below zero, Okla-
homa,has snow to take the place of rain, !
and Texas has snow a foot deep. In the
far northwest, near the boundary of !
North Dakota and Canada, Williston is I
the coldest place in the United States.
with the temperature 42 degrees below ;
zero, and the thermometer registers from
twenty to thirty below all through the
middle west.
The snow reached New York last
night when four inches had fallen, fol
lowing close npon a sleet storm which ;
. - .. . . '
naa almost stopped trainc. ihe weather
bureau predic s snow and gales and ex
treme cold for the whole Atlantic coast.
The same conditions prevail all along
the lakes.
The south is just escaping from floods
due to heavy rains, which extend from
Louisville southeast to Georgia, only to
fall into the grip of the bitterest storm of
the winter. Tiains and telegraph lines
are demoralized all through the middle
west and in many cities street cars are
running under great difficulties.
In Louisville the snowfall was four
inches and a strong wind piled tbe snow
into great drifts. The street railway
company kept cars moving with great
difficulty. Several trolleys were aban-
doned as snow plows proved powerless
to keep the tracks clear.
In Memphis the snow and sleet storm
was one of the worst in yars,and inter
ferred to some extent with the opera
tions of the trolley cars and telegraph
and telephone wires.
At Fort Worth and Dallas, Texas, Uie
snowfall was heaviest in years, and a
general blizzard prevailed throrghout
the southwest. Reports from Chatta
nooga, Nashville and Knoxville, Tenn.,
states that the word of weather prevails
sleet, enow and wind crippling the trol
ley wires and electric light plants. In
Atlanta heavy rain fell accompanied by
high winds with almoBt freezing temper,
ature. The same conditions are report
ed from all over Georgia. There has
been a great drop in the temperature all
over the south andd extremely cold
weatber prevails for that section.
In Wyoming, on the ranges, sheep and
stock of other kinds are reported to be
dyiijg by hundreds. The weather in
Wyoming has bee i 32 degrees below
zero. In,the southern part of that Btate
this has been one of the hardest winters
on stock in the history of the industry,
and unless an unexpected spell of warm
weather comes the property loss from
this source will be very great.
At Reno, Nevada, the mercury has
registered below zeio for a week or more.
The reservoir and supply ditch are
frozen, the ditch for' a distance ot 14
miles being covetbd. Water to supply
Keno is being sluiced down the moun
tains. In the Ohio Valley the snow is heavy
ranging from four to ten inches in depth
and zero weather conditions, prevail.
Train Bervice is badly crippled on roads
ruhaing out of Cincinnati and street
car traihe is interfered ith. '
Omaha, Neb , reports twenty degrees
below zero and the cold wave has the
entire state in its grasp.
The only part of the country that is
not suttering from severe clin.atic con
dition is the far northwest, west of the
Cascade mountains, where the sun
shines brightly and the mercury has not
fallen below 20 daring the whole winter.
