J5y railroad and sUiaml.oat tho population of the earth nro all tho tlmo in motion, and from ono year's pnd to another our cities arc crowded with visitors. Kverv mornincr on thofra.-ks of th Hud son l:ivir, thp lVnnsylvani:i, tho Erir, tho Liont? Island UaiIroa's there come passenger trains rnoro than I c;u nuinl.er. so that all tho d"pots and th-V wharves aro a-rumbl.) and a-r-lantr With the corning in of a proat immigration of stranger. Homo of tlim comD for purposes of barter, some for mech anism, some for artistie Kratifleation, some for sightseeing. A threat many of them tro out on th- eveninir train, and consequently tho city makes ,ut iittlo impression upon them, l.ut there nre multitudes who in tho hotels and hoarding houses make temporary residence. They tarry horo for three or four days, or as maiiV weeks. They ppond the days in the stored and the evenings in Bijrht peeintr. Their temporary Htay will either make or break tliern not onlv financially, but morally, for this world and the world that is io come. MultitK irs of them come into our morninLf and evening services. I am con scious that I stand in the presence of many I his moment. I desire more especially to peak to them. May Go 1 jrivo mo tho right word and help mo to u:tor it in tho right way. There have glided into this house thoso unknown to others whoso history if told would ho moro thrilling than ilio deepest tragedy, more exciting than Patti s song, more bright than a spring morning, moro awful than a wintry midnight. If they rouhl stand up !iero"and tell the story of heir escapes, and their temptations, an t their bereavements, and their disasters, and their victories, and their defeats, there would be In this house such a commingling of groans and acclamations as would mako tho place unendurable. There is a man who, in infancy, lay in a cradle satin lined. Out yonder "is a man who was picked up a foundling on Uoston Common. Hero is a man who is coolly ob serving this religious service, expecting no Fidvantag'i .md caring tor no advantago for himself, while yonder is a man who has been for ten years in an awful conlbigation of evil hahits, and he is a mere cinder of a destroyed nature, and ho is wondering if there shall bo in this service any escape or help for his im mortal soul. Meeting you only oneo per haps f.T-e to face, I strike hands with you in an earnest talk about your present condition and youreternal well being. Sf. Paul's ship at Melita went to pieces where two soa3 mct, but we stand to-day at a point where a thousand seas converge, and eternity alono can tell the issue of the hour. Tho hotels o f this country, for beauty and elegance, are not surpassed by tho hotels in nny other land, but those that are most cele brated for brilliancy of tapestry an 1 mirror cannot give to tho guest any costly apart ment unless he can afford a parlor in addi tion to his lo Iging. Thostranger, therefore, will generally llnd assigned to him a room without any pictures and perhaps nny rock ing chair. He will find a box of matches on a bureau and an old newspaper left by the previous occupant, and that will bo about all the ornamentation. At 7 o'clock in the even ing, after having taken his repast, ho will look over his memorandum book of tho day's Work, ho will write a letter to his home, and then a desperation will seizi upon him to got out. You hear the great city thundering under your windows, and you say, "I must join that procession." and in ten minutes you have joined it. Where are you going? "Oh," you say, "I haven t made up my mind yet." lii-tter make up your mind before you start. Perhaps the very way you go now you will nlways go. Twenty years ago thcro were two young men who came down tho Astor IIouso steps and started out in a wrong direction, where they have boeu goingevcr sinoo. "Well, whero are you goingV" says ono man. "I am going to the academy to hear some music." (loot. I would like to joia you at the door. At the tap of tho orchestral baton all the gates of harmony and beauty will open before my soul. I congratulate you. Where are you going? "Well," you 5:iy. "I am going up to see some advertised pictures." (rood. I should like to goalong Willi you and look over tho same catalogue and sludy with you Kunsett and Pierstadt and Church and Moran. Nothing moro elevating than good pictures. Whero aro you going? "Well," you say, "I am going up to tho Young Men's Christian Association, rooms." (rood. You will find thero gymnastics to strengthen the muscles, and books to improve tho mind, and Christian iiuluence to save the soul. I wish every city in the United States had as lino a paiaco for its Young Men's Christian Association as New York hri3. Where aro you going? "Well," you say, "I am going to take a long walk up Proadway and so turn around into tho Bowery. I am going to study human life." Good. A walk through Proadway at 8 o'clock at night is interesting, educating, fascinating, appalling, exhilarating to tho last degree. Stop iu front of that thoatro and see who goes in. Stop at that saloon and see who comes out. See the great tides of life surging backwarl and forward and beating against the marble of the curbstone and eddying down into the saloons. What is that mark on the face of that debauchee? It is the licet io ilesh of eternal death. What is that woman's laughter? It is tho shriek, of a lost soul. Who is that Christian man going along with a vial of anodyne to the dying pauper ou Elm street? Who is that belated man on the way to a prayer mooting? Who is that city missionary going to take a box in which to bury a child? Who aro nil thoso clusters of bright and beautiful faces? They are going to some interesting place of amuse ment. Who is that man going into tho drug store? That is tho man who yesterday lost all his fortune on Wall street. He is going in for a dose of belladonna, and beforo morning it will make no diiTereueo to him whether stocks are up or down. I tell you that Proad way, between 7 and 12 o'clock at night, be tween the Lattery and Central Park, is an Austerlitz, a Gettysburg, a Waterloo, where kingdoms aro lost or won and throo worlds mingle in tho strife. I met another coming down off tho hotel steps, and I say, "Whore aro you going?" Y'ou say : "I am going with a meichant of New York who has promised to show mo tho underground life of the city. I am his cus tomer, and ho is going to oblige mo wiry much." Stop ! A business house that trlr i to get or keep your custom through such a process as that is not worthy of you. Th-ro are business establishments in our cities which have for years been sending to de struction hundred and thousands of mer chants. They havo a secret drawer in tho counter where money is kept, and tho cleric goes and gets It when ho wants tako these visitors to tho city through tho low slums of the place. Shall I mention the names of some of these great commercial establishments? I hav-i them on my lips. Shall I? Perhaps I had better leave it to tho young men who in that process havo been destroyed themselves while they havo been destroying others. I care not how high sounding tho name of a commercial establishment if it proposes to get customers or to keep them by such a pro cess as that. Drop their acquaintance. They will cheat you before you get through. They will send you a stylo of goods different from that which you bought by sample. They will give you under weight. Thero will be in the package half a dozen less pairs of sus penders than you paid for. They will rob you. Oh, you feel in your pockets and say, "Is my money gone?" They have robbed you of something for which dollars and cents can never give you compensation. When one of these Western merchants has baen dragged by one of those oommoroial ! agents through the slams of the cltr. he U hot fit to go home. The mere memory ol What he has seen will be moral pollution. I think you had better let the city missionary and the police isttend to the exploration ot New York and underground life. You do not go to a smallpox hospital for the par pose of exploration. You do not go there bftcanso you are afraid of contagion. And yet you go into the presence of a moral lep rosy that is ri3 much more dangerous to you as the death of tho soul Is worse than death of the body. I will undertake to say that nine-tenths of the men who have been ruinod in our cities have been ruined by simply going to observe without any idea of partici pating. The fact Is that underground city life is a filthy, faming, reeking, pestiferous depth which blast3 the eye that looks ot it. In tho reign of terror In 1702 in Paris people escap ing from the officers of the law got into the sewers of the city and craw'.od and walked through miles of that awful labyrinth, stifled with the atmosphere and alffiont dead, some of them, when they Came out to tho river Seine where they washed themselv-'S and again breathed the fresh air. But I have to tell you that a great many of the men who go on tho work of exploration through the un derground gutters of New York life never come out nt any Seine Liver where they can wash off the pollution of the moral sewerage; Stranger, if ono of the represen tatives of a commercial establishment pro poses to tako you and show you the "sights" of tho town and underground New York, say to him, 'Tlease, sir, what part do you pro pose to show me?" Alout sixteen years ago as a minister of religion I felt I had a divino commlssson to explore tho iniquities of our cities. I did not nsk counsel of my session or my presbytery or of the newspapers, but asking the com panionship of three prominent police officials and two of the elders of my church I un rolled ray commission, and It said : "Son of man, dig into the Wall. And when I had digged into the wall behold a door, and He said go in and see the wickod abominations that nre done here. And I went in and saw and behold !" Brought up in the country and surrounded by much paternal care, I had not until that tlmo seen ttie haunts of iniquity. By the graoo of God defended, I had novor sowed my "wild oats." I had somehow leen ab'o to tell from various sources something about tho iniqui ties of tho great cities and to preach against them, but I saw in the destruction of a great multitude of th.i pooplo that there must bo an infatuation and a temptation that had never been spoken about, and 1 said, "I will explore." I saw thousands of men going down, and if there had been a spiritual per cussion answering to tho physical percussion the whole air would havo been full of tho rumble and roar and crack tin 1 thundot of the demolition, and this moment, if wo should pause in our service, wo should hoar the crash, crash ! Just as in tho sickly sea son you sometimes hear the boll at tho gate of tho cemetery ringing almost incessantly, so I found that tho bell at th3 gate of tho cemetery whero ruined souls are buried was tolling by day and tolling by night. I said, "I will explore." I went as a physician goes into a fever lazareto to see what practical and useful in formation I might get. That would be a foolish doctor who would stand outside the door of an invalid writing a Latin prescrip tion. When tho lecturer in a medical col lege is done with his lecture, ho takes tho students into tho dissecting room, and ho shows thorn the reality. I went and saw and flomo forth to my pulpit to report a plague and to toll how sin dissects tho body and dissects tho mind and dissects the soul. "Oh," say you, "are you not afraid that in cousequonce of such exploraf'un of the ini quities of the city other persons aig!it make exploration and do themselves damage?" I reply: "If in company with tho commis sioner of police, and the captain of police, and tho inspector of police and the com pany of two Christian gentlemen, and not with tho spirit of curiosity, but that you may see sin in order the better to combat it, then, in tho name of the eternal God, go? But, if not. then stay away." Wellington, standing in tho battlo of Waterlooo when the bullets were buzzing around his head, saw a civilian on the field. I llo said to him : "Sir, what aro you doing hero? Bo off !"' "Why," replied tho civilian, "thero is no moro danger hero for mo than thero is for you." Then Wellington flushed up and said, "God and my country demand that I bo here, but you havo no errand here." Now I, as an officer in the army of Jesus Christ, went on that exploration and on to that battlefield. If you bear a liko commis sion, go. If not, stay away. But you say, "Don't you think that somehow the descrip tion of those places induces people to go and 600 for themselves? ' I answer yes, just U3 much as the description of yollew fever in somo scourged city would induce people to go down thero and get tho pestilence. But I may be addressing somo stranger already destroyed. Where is he, that I may pointedly yet kindly address him? Come back and wash iu. tho deep fouutain of a Saviour's mercy. L do not give you a cup, or a chalice, or a pitcher with a limited sup ply to effect your ablutious. I point you to the five oceans of God's mercy. Oh, that the Atlantic and Tactile surges of divine forgive ness might roll over your soul ! As the glori ous sun of God's forgiveness rides on toward tho mid heavens ready to submerge you in warmth and light and lovo I bid you good morning. Morning of peace for all your troubles. Morning of liberation for all your incarcerations. Morning of resurrection for , your soul buried in sin. Good morning! Morning for the resuscitated household that has been waiting for your return. Morning for the cradle and the crib already disgraood with being that of a drunkard's child. Morn ing for tho daughter that has trudged off to hard work because you did not take care of home. Morning for the wife who at forty or fifty years has the wrinkled face, ami tho stooped shoulder, and the whito hair. Morn ing for one. Morning for all. Good morn ing ! In Gcd's name, good morning ! In our last dreadful war the Federals nnd the Confederates wero encamped on opposito sidos of tho Ilappahannook, and ono morn ing tho brass band of tho northern troops played the national air, an 1 all tho northern troops cheered and ehoersxl. Then on the opposite side of the llappahannock the brass band of the Confederates played "My Mary land" and "Dixie," and then all tho south ern troops cheered and cheerod. But after awhilo ono of tho bauds struck up "Home, Sweet Home," and tho band ou tho opposite sido of tho river took up tho strain, and when tho tune w;is done the Confederates nnd tho Federals all togother united as the tears rolled down their chcoks in ono groat huzza, huzza ! Well, my friends, heaven comes very near to-day. It ir only a stream that divides U3; the narrow st.-eam of death, and tho voices there and the voices horo soom to commin gle, and wj join trumpets and ho3innahs and hallelujahs, and the chorus of united song of earth and heaven is "Homo, Sweet Home." Home of bright domestic circle on earth. Homo of forgiveness in tho great heart of God. Home of eternal rest in heaven. Home I Homo ! Home '. But suppose you aro standing on a crag of the mountain and on tho edge of a preol pice, and all uuguarded, and somo one either in joke or hate shall ruu up behind you and push you off. It is easy enough to push you off. But who would do so das tardly a deed ! Why, this is douc every hour of every day and every hour of every night. Men come to tho verge of city lifo and say : "Now, we will just look off. Come, young young man, do not bo afraid. Como near, let us look off." He comes to tho edge and looks and looks until, after awhile, satan sneaks up behind him and puts a hand on each of his shoulders and pnshes him off. Society says it is evil proclivity on the part of that young man. Oh, no ! He was sim ply an explorer and sacrificed his life in dis covery. A young man comes In from the country bragging that nothing can do him any harm. He knows about all the tricks of eity life. "Why," he says, "did not I receive a circu lar in the country telling me that somehow they found out I was a sharp business man, and if I would only send a certain Amount of money by mail or express, charges pre paid, they would send a package with whiob I could make a fortune in two months, but 1 did not believe it. My neighbors did. but J did not. Why, no man could take my money. I carry it in a pocket inside ray vest. No man could take it. No mai could cheat me at the faro table. Don't I know all about the cue box, and the dealer's box, and tho cards sfuck together as though they were one, and when to hand In my checks? Oh, they can't cheat me. I know what I am about." while at the same time, that vers moment, euoh men are succumbing to th Worst Satanic lnflaencefl in the simple fact that they are going to observe. Now, if a man or woman shall go down into a haunt of iniquity for the purpose of reforming men and women or for tho sake of being able in telligently to warn pi-oplo ag;.inst such perils ; if, as did John Howard or Elizabeth Fry or Thomas Chalmers, they go down among the abandoned fer the sake of sating them, then such explorers shall be God pro tected, and they will come out better than they went in. But if yoa go on this work of exploration merely for the purpose of satis fying a morbid curiosity I will take twenty per cent, off your moral character. Sabbath morning comes. Y'ou wake up In the hotel. Yoa have had a longer sleep than usual. You say : "Where am I? A thousand miles from home? I have no fam ily to take to church to-day. My pastor will not expect my presenco. I think I shall look over my accounts and study my memoran dum book. Then I will write a few busjnes3 letters and talk to that merchant who came In on the same train with mo." Stop ! You Cannot afford to do it. "But," you say. "I am worth $500,000." $ou cannot afford to do it. Y'ou say, "I am worth $1,000,000." Yon cannot afford to do It. All you gain by breaking the Sabbath fbn will los Y'ou will lose one of three things your Intellect, your morals or your property and you cannot pu'nt in the whole earth to a single exception to this rale. Go 1 gives us six days and keeps one for Himself. Now, if wo try to get tho seventh, He will upset the work of all the other six. I remember going up Mount Washington, before the railroad had been built, to the Tip-Top nouse, and tho guide would come around to our horses and stop us when we were crossing a very steep and dangerous Elace, and he would tighten the girth of tho orse and straighten the saddle. And I havo to tell you that this road of lifo is so steep and full of peril we must at least one day in seven stop and have the harness of lifo read justed and our souls re-equlppod. The seven days of the week are liko seven business partners, and you must give to each one his share, or the business will be broken up. God is so generous with us Ho has given you six days to His one. Now, here is a father who has seven apples, and he gives six to his groedy boy, proposing to keep one for himself. The greody boy grabs for the other one and loses all the six. How few men there aro who know how to keep the Lord's day away from home ! A great many who aro consistent on tho banks of tho St. Lawrence, or the Alabama, or tho Mississippi are not consistent when they get so far off as tho East IUvcr. I repeat though it is putting it on a low ground you cannot financially afford to break the Lord's day. It is only another way of tear ing up your Government soovr'ties and put ting down tho price of goods and blowing up your store. I have friends who aro all the time slicing off pieces of the Sabbath. They cut a little of tho Sabbath off that end and a llttlo of the Sabbath off this end. They do not keep the twenty-four hours. The Bible says, "Itomember tho SabLach day, to keep It holy." I have good friends who aro quite accus tomed to leaving Albany by the midnight train on Saturday night and getting home before church. Now, there may be occ tsion when it is right, but generally it is w-ong. How if tho train should run oft the track into tho North River? I hope your friends will not send to mo to preach your fuueral ser mon. It would bo an awkward thing forme to stand up by your sido and preach, you, a Christian man, killed on a raii train travel ing on a Sunday morning. "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy." What does that mean? It means twenty-four hours. A man owes you a dollar. You don't want him to pay you ninety cents. Yoa want tho dollar. If God demsitls of us twenty-four hours out of tho week, Ho means twenty-four hours, and not nineteen. Oh, wo want to keep vigilantly in this country tho American Sabbath and not havo trans planted hero tho European Sabbath, which for tho most part i3 no Sabbath at all. If any of you have been in Paris, you know that on Sabbath morning the vast populatior. rush out toward the country with baskets and bundles, and toward night they come back fagged out, cross and intoxicated. May Ood preserve to us our glorious, quiet American Sabbaths. Oh, strangers, welcome to the great city 1 May you f nd Christ here, and not any physi cal or moral damage. Men coming from in land, from distant cities, havo hero fo ind God and found Him in our service. May that bo your case to-day. Y'ou thought you were brought to this merely for the purpose of sightseeing. Perhaps God brought you to this roaring city for the purpose of work ing out your eternal salvation. Go back to your homes and tell them how you met Christ here, tho loving, patient, pardoning and sympathetic Christ. Who knows but the city which has been tho destruction of so many may be your eternal redemption? A good many years ago Edward Stailey, the English commander, with his regiment, took a fort. The fort was manned by some 300 Spaniards. Edward Stanley camo close up to the fort, leading his men, when a Span iard thrust at him with a spear, intending to destroy his life, but Stanley caught hold of tho spear, and the Spaniard, in attempting to jerk the spear away from Stanley, lifted him up Into the battlements. No sooner had Stanley taken his position on tho battlements than ho swung his sword, and his whole reg iment leaped after him, and the fort WH3 taken. So it may bo with you, O stranger. The city influences which havo destroyed so many and dashed them down forever shall be the means of lifting you up intothe tower of God's mercy and strength, your soul more than conquered through tho grace of Him who has promised an especial benediction to thoso who shall treat you well, saying, "I was a stranger, and yo took Me in." lie Wanted to fie Ttobhetl in Style A lanky individual in a long and faded brown overcoat dropped into a restaurant ou I ear born street re cently, took his seat at ono of the tables, placed his hat on the floor be side his chair and beckoned to one of the waiters. ''Have you pot any stewed pun kin?" he asked. "I think not replied the waiter. "Got any fried onions?" "So." "What have you got that a man can eat. anyhow?" Here's our bill of fare." "I can't read it without my specs, and I didn't bring 'era. S'posen' you was hungry yourself, what'd you want?"

Any charge fur tho time I've been settin' down here? 2so? Wall, good da'." United in Misfortune. Tramp Give me a dime, please. I haven't had anything to cat in three days. Citizen Shake, old man.

The mcst disastrous feature Was the loss of treacherous New eight to ton men two schooners on tho Jersey coast. From were lost in eaeh of the wrecks. In the country trees were uprooted, buildings blown down and dwellings unroofed. High seas encroached on tho land, did great damage to small ship ping and to other property. The heavy wind caused a hawser to snap on the steamer Purl tan at New York and five men were injured. The tug Underwriter was forced against a pier in Brooklyn and sunk,her crew narrowly escaping. The galo was extremely severe in and around New York City ; harbor traffic was greatly impeded, and the high tides caused considerabletrouble to ferries ; a number of minor accidents were reported, but no serious damage wits caused ; some small vessels were driven ashore on Long Island. Tho remarkable thing is that the storm was scarcely felt north of New York City. Al bany was as dry as a chip. At night tho storm center was south and tho storm passed out to sea. At 8 o'clock in tho morning the wind blew at tho rale of forty miles au hour ; an hour later it had subsided to thirty-six ; it attained its greatest velooity between 1 p. m. and 2 p. m., when it reached forty-two miles an hour. At sea, off Block Isl and, it blew at fifty-six miles an hour, and at Sandy Hook seventy miles. In New York City the storm furnished a fitting climax to tho atrocious weather of the year. The storm was cut out for a bliz zard, but lost its icy edge in consequence of coming along too lato in the season. New Yorkers who heard tho wind howl and saw when they woke up the roofs covered with snow, with tho galo increasing iu violence, naturally thought of tho blizzard of March 12, 1888, six years ago. In mere ways than one the storm resembled the great blizzard. All the conditions were practically the same, except as to tho tem porature. Had the weather been as cold a3 it was then the snow which melted as it fell would have piled high in the streets and been rendered for the time being immovable by the subsequent sleet. Rain, snow nnd sleet cut the faces and chilled tho hands, and draggled the skirts and trouser tops of all who hail to be out. De lays on the elevated roads added to the Sum of misery, while tho Broadway cable road had one or two stoppages. Several of the city markets wero practically deserted, the storm having prevented most of the farmers from coming in from Long Island and New Jersey with truck. Telegraph lines wero cripple 1 in all di rections. Superintendent Humstone, of tho Western Union, said in tho after noon : "Wires are disabled in all di rection, especially in tho South." As if tho wind, rain, snow and sleet wero not enough of baleful visitants, there was a period of dense fogs in the morning. The city was steeped in misery. Umbrellas wero turned inside out, hats skylarked under the impetus of unwonted gusts, and feet trailed over slush-toppod sidewalks. Cellars were flooded, and South and West streets wero covered with two feet of water. When tho ferry boats came into their slips they were so high that it was almost im possible to make a connection with tho bridges which trueks and heavy wagor.a could go up and down. Th 3 ferry men said that the conditions were simply phenomenal. The wind raged around tho river front and played mad pranks with ferry boats which were forced to brave its fury, whilo vessels at their wharves received such a shaking up as they had not experienced in many a day. Somo wero sunk, and there wero oe or two collisions. Five members of tho crew of tho big Sound steamboat Puritan received injuries duo directly to the storm. Tho steamboat was warped into her dock and a big two-inch hawser was thrown out to make her fast to tho pier. The stroDg wind and tide made a very heavy strain, nnd the hawser parted with a report like the explosion of a can non. Tho end made fast to tho Puri tan recoiled, and cut away the rail and iron chock, and struck the mate and the hands who were adjusting the line. The five men were thrown to tho dock. Second Mato Thomas Kelly had a lacerated wound of the head, William Condon's leg was lacerated, John Mahoney and Harry Hausen had con tusions of the leg und William Gattings slight wounds on the body. All but Gattings were taken to the Chambers Street Hospital Brooklyn suffered considerably from tho olements. An unfinished house at Third avenue anil Thirty-seventh street was re duced to kindling wood shortly after noon. Tho gale overthrew trees, unroofed houses nnd tore heavy signs from their fastenings. The ocean tugboat Underwriter was sunk at Martin's Stores, Brooklyn. Her crew of eight men had a narrow escape. A long stretch of scaffolding belonging to tho Wild West Show, at Thirty-third street and Third avenue, was blown down. Many small craft were driven ashore and buildings were damaged by tho storm on Long Island. The wind reached a velocity of fifty miles an hour at the United States Engineer station at Willet's Toint. Tho long veranda was blown from the front of the Engineer headquarters and the build ing rocked so that the occupants vacated it, fearing that it would collapse. The sloop William Scott was blown against the rail road trestle near Rockaway Beach and began pounding with such violence that she be came a total wreck. Many boats lying in Gravesend Bay off the Brooklyn Yacht Club wero badly damaged. At Bay Ridge many bathing pavilions wore carried out on tho tide. At Brighton Beach, Coney Island, tho Hotel Brighton was in danger of being washed away. The roof of the pavilion adjoining tho hotel was blown off and several shanties near the Brighton Beach race track were demolished. Mariners declare the storm was the most severe that hal swept the Sound for many years. Not since the memorable blizzard had Long Isl and known such a storm. In the different towns on the coast tho tide reached tho highest point remembered by anybody. At Greenport, L. I., the schooner Nevada. Captain Grilling, loaded with oysters for Norwalk, Conn., drided from her anchor age and went through a building in tho shipyard, badly damaging her. Tho crew escaped. The schooner Lena R., Captain Raynor. went ashore near tho lumber yard, and the schooner Anna T., tore away part of the pier. Bulkheads at East Shore were all carried away and houses on the beach were surroun led by water. The sloop Carrie, loidel with oysters and owned by John Carle, of Rockaway Beach, broke her cable, drifted and sunk off Seaside. The old mill at NTorthport, L. I., Which was moro than ono hundred years oil. wss destroyed by the wind, and tho large flag pole in Main street, that place, was blown down. Many persons who were passing at the time narrowly escaped feeing ; truck. The storm did considerable damage on the shores of Staten Island. At South Beach the 1 id was the highest seen in many years : the mi r." broke over the piazzas of the hotels, threatening destruction. Popular seaside resorts along the New Jersey coast felt the effects of the terrific gale and mountainous waves, while the fall of snow in many places throughout the State was tho heaviest known during the season. The eofist had not known so severe a storm for eighteen years. The wind, which blew at a rate of from fifty to seventy miles an hour, caused extraordinary high seas, which made serious inroads along the Jersey coast from Point Pleasant to the Highlands ot Navesink. About throe thousand feet of the tracks of the New Jersey Southern Railroad, between Seabright and Highland Beach, were carried away. The rails were torn from the ties and twisted into all kinds of shapes by the ferce ot the waves. At Avon-hy-the-Sea the surf washed up over into Shark River Inlet and completely ln- uuiate.l the road leading to Asbury Park. At Long Branch the new bulkhead near. the merry-go-round was seriously damagod, big ravines were cut in the bluff north of the old iron pier, while the new iron pier suffered considerably. Just off the Beach nouse, at Sea Girt, in th early hours of the morning, tin three-masted s.-hooner Albert W. Smith went hard an 1 tast on the treacherous sand of Nquan Beach and was wrecked. Every man on toard wav? lost. The m a of Life Saving Station Five discovered her and tried to rescue the eight men who coal bo d:scerud on her. Several attempts were made to shoot tho line safely across her. They faild sev eral times. A giant wave finally lifted tho schooner clear of the sand and landed her in the deep water. Tho lino was immediately shot across her. Tho shot was true, and the lino rat tled through the rigging and settled on the deck. This was greeted by a cheer by the life savers, but the shout was stopp-sd, for at the same moment the foremast snapped and fell, earring tho others with It. Tho schooner went over on her leam ends and sank. None of tho eight men on lionrd was seen agaia. A Newfoundland dog swam ashoro from tho wn-ck. Eight sailors were drowned by the wrecking of the three-masted schooner Kate Markeeon the Jersey coast near Highlands. Captain Daniel liandy, commamder of tho schooner, was one of those lost. The names of the mem bers of the crew were not known. When the storm was at the height of its fury, shortly before 8 o'clock a. m., when the at mosphere was thick with pelting rain and snow and tlo wind, blowing a hurricane, was lashing up great corners that beat with terrific force on the Jersey coast, the operator at tho Highlands Station of the Jersey Central Road, A. II. Bernadon, saw the Kate Markee off shore laboriously working along under trisails in the course usually followed by vessels mak ing for Sandy Hook. In less than two hours1 after tho schooner went ashoro only a por tion of her bow, held together by the brac ings of tho forecastle, retained any sem blance to a ship. Tais was thrown over on its starboard sido, and ou tho port side could bo distinguished the name, Kato Markoo. No bodies came ashore. Throughout New York State a heavy snow storm prevailed. The great snow storm iu the Genesee Valley will go ou record as the heaviest snowfall iu twenty-five years. At 2 o'clock in tho aftornoon it was twenty three inches on the level. No wind was blowing, so the snow level was even ail over tho country. Business was suspended and travel difficult. The weight of tho snow on tho trees was immense, the limbs of fruit, shade and forest trees being bent nearly to tho ground. Snow to the depth of twenty inches fell nt Corn ing. The roads wero blocked considerably and travel impeded. At Canandaigua tho fall was ten inches, and many small trees succumbed to tho heavy weight of snow. The sleighing was fine. Nearly a foot of heavy snow fell at Buffalo. Street cars wero badly blockaded. Tho suow packed on tho telegraph and telephone wires, breaking many of tho latter and demoralizing the service. During tho twenty-four hours Warsaw saw tho heaviest snowstorm of tho season. Eighteen Indies of snow fell at Elmira. Railroad traffic was considerably delayed and some of the electric surface roaels were blocked aud others badly crippled. Nearly a foot of snow fell throughout Pennsylvania. In tho mountains it was eighteen inches deep. SENATOR HILL'S VIEWS. An Epitome of His Speech, on tho Wilson Bill. Senator David Bennett Hill, of Now York, has come out squarely against the income tax, and what ho calls tho "un-Domocratlo tariff" bills of Wilson nnd Voorhees. Ha condemns tho Senate bill ns unsparingly as tho House bill. Both ai-e denounced as con trary to Democratic principle, political ex pediency and public policy. His speech in the United States Senate was the longest he ever delivered. It bore evi dences of unremitting toil, deep purpose and settled conviction. It was delivered as deliboratly and cold bloodedly as a judge's charge. There was neither passion, nor elo quence, nor feeling In it. His repudiation of the Administration and of tho tariff policy of tho majority of his own party was as calm as if he was not a participant in the strife. Never since tho days when on announce ment that Senator Ingalls expected to speak used to fill tho galleries of the Senate has thero been such a crowd at tracted to the Senato end of the Capitol to listen to a single speech as thronged to listen to tho senior Senator from New York define his position on the tariff question. Long beforo two o'clock, the hour fixed for the speech to begin, every soat was occupied and standing room was at a premium. Tho steps in the aisles of tho galleries were used for seats, and every available foot of space against the walls was occupied by men and womon will ing to stand for two or three hours to hear what was expected to bo tho most important speech of tne tariff debat e. Practically every Senator in tho city was in his place, and every vacant chair wits occu pied by a member of tho House of Represen tatives, whilo all tho space in the rear of the seats on the floor was occupied by Repre sentatives sitting on chairs brought in from the cloak rooms and committee rooms, while scores stood against tho wall. Tho burden of tho Senator's speech was to tho effect that the tariff bill i3 framed on the lines laid down by the President and Secretary of tho Treasury at a timo when there was a surplus instead of an empty Treasury and at the dictation of tho Populist element of the Democratio party. The income tax proposition, he said, was never a tenet of Democratio faith, but was stolen from the Populist party by the disciples of the new Democracy, who desired now to make it tho test of the loyalty of men who are Democrats of tho most radi cal kind, but who will not submit to engraft ing into a Democratic tariff measuro this new doctrine, whose provisions aro undem ocratic and whoso tendencies are socialist!'!. Incidentally, he embraced the occasion to get in as many hits at the Administration ns possible, but the burdonof his speech was against tho Populist income tax rider to tho Democratic Tariff bill. Tho conclusion of Senator Hill's speech was largely a statement of his own position on the Tariff bill. Ho virtually declared ho would oppose tho bill to tho last if it con tained the Income tax feature, but that he was willing to make concessions upon other points for tho sake of a speedy settlement of the tariff question. When Senator Hill concluded with an Im pressive question to his follow Democrats as to whether it was tho part of wisdom to thus imperil Democratic success, there was a rip ple of applause on the floor of the Senate Chamber, but it was confined almost entirely to tho Republican side.
