Boston, Dec. 28.—Three million dol lars is the es tim ate to day of the loss in ami ar oun d Boston by the tidal wave and blizzard which swept over New E ngland Sunday. Five million dollars is the estim ate of the damnge along the New England coast. F ifteen lives were certainly lost, if the five masted schooner, the Davis Fulmer, went down, and it is believed t h a t many more perished a t sea. Wreckage borue into Boston harbor today is believed to lie the m ute e v i dence of the loss of the schooner Davis Falmer, bound from Newport News for Boston, somewhere near the entrance to the harbor. The wreck itself has not been located. Cape Cod is still cut oil'. With the restoration of communica tion there, it is feared t h a t a tale of marine disa sters and storm damage un equaled in years will be related. Thirty-tw o cities an d towns were plunged in dar kness owing to the elec trie lighting service being cut off, and wires of the telegraph and telephone companies were laid lown in ev ery di rection. New York, Dec. 28.— With the news of the probable loss of the five-masted schooner Davis Palm er , w ith her crew of twelve men, off Boston harbor, and of the wrecking of nine other vessels along the M ass achusetts coast, the opening c h ap ter of the toll tak en on the sea by the storm th at sw ept New England S a tu r d a y night a n d Sunday was bared to th e world today. Tlie three-masted schooner Nan tas kn was hurled ashore at S citu ate and probably will be a total wreck. Vol unteer lifesavers with the breeches buoy rescued her crew of ten iner The schooner Belle Holliday is ashore a t B r a n t point, exposed to the fury of the sea. The fate of her crew is unknown, b u t it is believed they have been rescued. She is from P h i l a delphia, loaded with railroad iron. On the rocky shores of M a r t h a ’s Vineyard water-logged schooners are being swept by ev ery sea. T hey are the A. K. McLean, a Br itish vessel, bound from P erth Amboy to Halifax, an d the Stonington, Maine, schooner Maud Sew ard, P o rt Heading for Provi dencetown. The crews have been tak en off'.

L ab o r Leaders Off to W ash in g to n to Seek Advice. St. Paul, Dec. 28.—C o n tr a r y to e x pectations, developments to d ay in the controversy between the ra ilro ads of t h e northwest an d the str ik in g sw itc h men, instead of resulting in an a m i cable se ttlem en t of th e strike, resulted in a wider breach th an has existed heretofore. Not only have the switchmen declared off all negotiations with the railroads, but labor leaders say ther e is a strong possibility of a general strik e by all allied orders belonging to the railw ay branch of the American F ed eratio n of Labor. H. B. Perham , actin g ns chairm an of the railway council in session here, left tonight for Washington to seek advice. “ There may be a more general s t r i k e , ” said Mr. Per ham. P re sid en t Hawley, of th e s w it c h m e n ’s union, as serted: “ Several other mem bers of the railway council besides Mr. Perham left for th eir head q u arters t o night to make p rep aratio n for a strik e of their respective o r d e rs .” Mr. P erh am , in sp eaking of t o d a y ’s developments, said: “ F rid a y we were on the verge of a settlem ent, an d we th o u g h t t h a t the m atter would be fixed up today. But this morning the railroads pre se nted a mysterious change of front an d as sumed such an ar ro g a n t a t t i t u d e t h a t we decided at once to have noth ing more to do with t h e m .” Car Chained, Suit Is On.

The company as serts t h a t on No vem ber 20 one of its cars was tak en out of a Bal timore & Ohio train bound for Wash ington, an d chained to the track s through the action of th e def en dan ts. Mr. Gillette is said to h ave t ak en the action because he could not get payment lo r $120 worth of clothes stolen or lost from one of the Pullman cars. CON FLICT S E E M S I M M IN E N T Ra ilroads Ssy They C a n ’t P ay Higher Wages. Washington, Dec. 27.— Some members f the interstate commerce commission and many railroad officials believe they an see rapidly approaching one of the ever es t contests between labor and apital in recent history. This does not necessarily mean th at railroad men gen rally are expectiug big strikes in the labor world. Such strikes, however, are alw ays among the possibilities when labor and capital clash. I t is firmly believed by the railroad men t h a t this struggle will be begun by the railroad labor organizations, will rapidly spread to other lines of work and may even tually result in a complete readjust ment of industrial conditions. The situation with respect to railroad labor is unique in the history of this r an y other country. Never before has labor enjoyed such high wages. During the recent periods of g reat pros per ity wages in th e railroad field have m ounted very high. As a result, labor men have become accustomed to living on an entirely different plane from f o r merly. They are living in b e tte r neigh borhoods, are dressing better, are e d u c atin g th eir families, and altogether arc t a k i n g a different view of life. N o tw ith stan d in g th e fact, however, t h a t exceedingly high wages, compara tively speaking, have enabled the l a boring classes in the railro ad field to b e tte r th eir conditions, they now find themselves unable to live on th eir pres nt rates of pay. One of two things mlist result, namely, either the railroad laborer must r etu rn to his old style of living or he must have increased wages. Railroad m anagem ents ev er ywher e rec ognize this economical fact. They say, however, t h a t they would be willing to increase wages if they could do so without menace to the p roperty in tru sted to th eir care. They say, with some show of reason, t h a t it is impossible for railroads to continue to absorb the increased cost of living on behalf of th eir employes an d a t the same time stand the increased cost of all m ater ial an d e v e r y th in g which e n ters into the operation and m ainten an ce of a railroad. The point has been reached, they insist, where railroads must receive more for the t r a n s p o r t a tion services if they are to continue in cr easing wages. Upon th is platform the railroads say th ey must stand firmly. BLIZZARD I N T H R E E STATES. Tra ins Stalled an d Chicago Faces Coal Famine.
