Bp-'. Tlit weather fiend with hU "Is it cold
RmJ csongh for yon f" will hate an excellent
Kjfc field to work in to-day, and unless bo freozes
MftSf to death, will have n similar field to-morrow.
Ks The blizzard that loft its home away ont on
KOirV the edge of Western elTiliration has roaohed
Bw ' ' this city and has como to stay, for a few days
Wtkij, At least. It enmo richt alone, too, not stop-
& VN( at any way stations.
BJjT Last night the late pedestrians met it, and
HiV1 to-day nil How York has had the pleasure of
B its acquaintance. Tho temporaturo in about
B$ft fix hours foil from 28 to 12 degrees, and this
HbvTv morning, tho tiny morenry streams iunll
MRf' Well regulated thermometers danced bctweon
H the latter figure and two or three degreos
Hk below.
Kb .Thpso who wero obligod to faco tho wind
Kv rtnd cold to-day were not prepared for it
Hip, either. Borne few had bearskin caps and
K coat collars that did tho duty of nose and
Wk. car. warmers, but the big majority had only
Hr tho plain OTery-doy inoh-ond-a-half affair
Kk that fashion has dictated for tho nock trlm-
MS&, mlngs of the coat, and a 10 by 6 round felt
Hb, , hat that allowed the wind to enter sidoways,
Hf and then would not let it out.
ffi Tho ohango in tho weather mado a big
EV change in the commercial appeoranco of tho
Bl curbstone merchants downtown. Tho old
Biv Bray-haired hawkor, who for tho past two
K?r weeks has been foroing funny sounds from
KsA rubber canary bird's at his doorway ofllconoar
MrST Fulton street has gone out of that business
HJrfb pnd has invested in ear-laps.
rjf? His doorway ofllco is closed and his quarters
K;V oro moved to tho big thonnomoter at Park
H&- row and Broadway. Ha did a bigger business
H in a few hours early this morning than he has
Krf! done for a week in alloged canary sales.
n?' ' The old man who tried to teach tho baohe-
B& lors and aspiring young men how to thread a
K& needle in a single try, is now negotiating for
5JY the sale of his stock with the idea of invest-
MeK. ing in scarfs and wristors. Even tlio candy
gsT peddlers, those of thorn who ventured out,
- have started ear-wanuor aunexes, and seem
yjK bound to suit all tastes.
B&;; 'With tho scurrying pedestrian there ap.
Seared but little desire to stop at shop win
ows. A bee-lino to the ofllco was the short.
RS$V est way this morning, and tho old adaga of
& tho longest way round scorned forgotten.
yfef Two out of every throo who passed Hud-
Bfcj? , nut's thermometer, howovor, found tlmo to
IRS-.- atop and look anxiously at tbo rod stream
Ithnl told how cold the weather was. Their
faces were red and ioleles in many cases hung
tenderly to their beards.
For an instant they would stop, give a
single glance at tho long, narrow box, count
the figures and, with a shiver and a hltoh nt
tho coat collar, would pass on. Bomo went
bo far as to retrace their steps to seo if really
there was uny need of feeling so cold, but a
glance settled thorn and tlioy were contented.
Mr. Blizzard will nrobably have done New
York to-morrow, audi like other visitors who
come here as strangers, paint tho town and
disturb the serenity of tho old residents, will
creep out quietly and won't bo heard from
pealn until he recuperates.
New York is not quite alone in tho midst
of the oold wavo. Out West, whore tbo
Blizzard oome from, it is colder. At Fort
Garry. Manitoba, tbo temperature is 10 do
grecs below. At St. Vincent, Minn., it is
just as cold. At St. Paul tho weather indi.
cators point to 22 degreos below, but at Ohi
cago It is 20 degrees warmer. At North
Platte. Neb., the mercury stands 10 degrees
below and at Indianapolis and St. Louis 2
degrees. These aro the coldest portions of
the country.
At New Orleans and points of Texas tho
thermometers register freezing point, and at
'Jacksonville the samo. In Boston it is 20
degreos and In Philadelphia 16 degrees.
The greatest velocity of the wind wasforty
, eight miles an hour. At 7 o'clook this morn-yjpw-
l Ibff it was blowing at the rate of forty-two
KV miles. Storm signals aro displayod all along
, the Atlantic coast from Jacksonville, Fla., to
I. Eastport. Me.
Er Tho wind is still blowing off shore, pro-
H& 3KntinR incoming vessels from making port.
f, Therefore a largo number of ships outside the
Kg' harbor, waiting for the wind to go down.
JST Only one steamship's arrival was ounouncod
, , yesterday. There is snow in the lake re.
3 Clous and storms aro raging on tho Facifia

Hpp Indications are that tho weathor will bo
k" coldor to-night. The wind will go down and

Eut Baoinaw, Mich,, Doc. 29. Thomas
B. Barry, moinbcr of tho General Exocutlro
Board of tho KnighU of Labor, was a leader
in the stnko of 1883, and his leadership of
tho strikers in tho jonrnoy to tho sovoral
mills on tho rivor to call the men out was
mado the ground for an action against him,
which resulted in a judgment now hanging
over him.
On July 11. 1886, several hundred mon
went from mill to mill to induco men still at
work to join tho striko for ton hours.
At tho planing-mill of tho Uoyt estate, of
which Win. L. Wobber Is tho Miclilcan
trusteo, Barry halted tho mon at somo ais
tanco from tho place, and ho and sovoral oth
ers hold a conference with tho employees.
This lastnd too long for tho waiting crowd,
and they invaded tho premises, drow tho Are
and shut down tho mill.
This was ouo of tbo counts in the informa
tion, against Barry in tho oriminal prosoou
tlon whioh resulted in acauittal, but later
Mr. Webber instituted civil proceedings
against the leadors of the strike, which
as was concroliy bcllovod. meroly indicatod
tbo intention of learning how far tho rights
of property-owners extended in tho control
of their premises against unwolcomo visitors.
The Circuit Court returned a vordlct of
9290.18 against tho defendants in favor of
Webber, but tho case of Barry was tnkon to
tho Supreme Court, which afilrmod tho do
clslou of tho lower court, holding that Mr.
Barry, bocauso of his acknowledged loodor
shlp.beearae responsible for thfi aotion of his
followers whether dono by his consontor
against his protest.
Nothing further was heard of tho case
until tho prosent week, when Mr. Barry was
notlflod by Webber's attorneys that hlmsolf
and co-defendants must pay tho judgmont
about 8400 or submit to tho process of a
body execution.
Mr. Barry says i " I still labor honostly
uudor tho conviction that I have novor com.
mittcd sufflclont error to warrant tbo finding
of such damage, and I will not pay it.
" I couldn't if I would, and wouldn't if I
could. I would go to prison first. Tho
bones of better men than I havo docayod bo
hind bolts and bars because of tbolr efforts
to hotter tho condition of thoir fallow-mon.
I have not tho gold to glvo Mr. Wobbor, and
ho must tako the pound of flesh."
Mr. Webber's attorneys stato they cannot
say when tho threatened execution will bo
issuod. Thoy aro simply awaiting tho orders
of thoir client.

Wonderful Hnrsjleal Operation Performed on
a F. E. 1. Young; Olnn.
(snout, to Tnr wobld.i
Halitax, Dec. 29. A wonderful surgical
operation has boon performed at Elksdalo,
P. E. I., by Dr. Dovalo. Tho pationt, a young
man, was suddenly solzod last May with
eot ere pains in tho stomach. The complaint
did not seom liko nouralgla, and certainly it
was not inflammation. Tho patient also ex
perienced crooplng, crawling sensations In
the stomaoh. Alternating with tho pains
thorowero violent convulsions. Altogether
tho case was a most violent ono. It was piti
ful to bohold tbe terriblo sufferings of tho
patient.
Thn doctor did not nt first understand it,
but after carefully considering the symptoms
ho said : ' ' Tboro is a living animal in that
man's stomaoh, and I will tako it out."
Accordingly on the first of July ho pro
ceeded to operate, no had diagnosed tho an
imal to be located in tho right plenrio extrom
ity of tbe stomaoh. An inoision was mado
across tho opigrastum. Tho stomaoh being
contracted wns overlapped by tho liver. Ac
cordlngly the latter first presontod itself.
Tho liver was drawn up and cnrofully
stltchod to tho under surfaoe of tho abdom
inal wall. Thon the stomaoh was drawn up
to tho odgo of tho incision and neatly stitched
there.
After a few days, to allow tho stomaoh to
form a connection to its now locality, ho
opened tho organ.
Thon a most remarkablo sight was pre
sented. A snako fully 12 inches long lay
colled up in the suspected locality.
Having obsorved light through the stom
aoh wall it was ready for aotion. As soon as
tho opening in tho stomach was made it
sprang at the hand oi the operator. Missing
its aim, it ohanged its tactlos. Tho attempt
was mado to escapo by dashing through
tho pylerlo orifice ; out in this it was foiled,
for the gallant oporator coized it by the tail
and draw it back.
Having elndod tho grasp of tbe forceps, an
attempt was mado to escapo into the oosoph.
agUB. Its passage there was not interrupted.
'Finally it emerged through tho mouth, and
the patient was thus relieved of his torment,
and lias completely reooverod.

to explain tho reason for his stabbing Vin.
cont Voilnt nearly to death.
Ho had been suspicious at lato that Vollot
was nltogctlior too intimate with his (Ridl
ey's) wife, and to when lie went home at an
early hour this morning, and found tho door
of his wife's chamber barred to him, ho bo
camo violent and forced an admittance Ho
found his hUMilclons thero and thon justified.
Both Mrs. Iticliey and hor paramour wero
almost besldo thomsolvcs with terror. Tho
enraged husband huld in his hand a largo
iacknifo. Ho Jumped upon the intrudor In
his wife's chamber witli tho forooity of a
tiger.
Tho wife, thorotigly terrified and unable to
restrain her husband, leaped from tbe bed
and in hor night dross went soreamlng
through tho houso crying to hor neighbors
for holp.
During her search for assistance a torriblo
scono ttiis ennatcd in the chamber. Tho
guilty Vollot soemt'd petrified With fear and
offered apparently "but llttlo reslstnnco to tho
infuriated husband. Ho mado an effort to
get out of tho door, but Riohey had him in

to no avail. Threo other thrustB wero given,
all of theto in tho man's baak before Riohoy
Sushod him uway, and ho sank blooding on

Tho cries of tho wife and tho noighbors

tho station with tno officers. Tho wounded
man was taken to tho Massachusetts General
Hospital, whore his wounds wero oxamined.
Tho attending physician was unable to stato

Montbeax, Deo. 29. W. H. Anderson, of
Anderson & Oo. and of Oroeno & Co., man.
'tigers of the Oriont lino of steamships, who Is at
present in Canada in connection with tenders
for the carriage of mails, was interviewed
to-doy in relation to their sohomo for a new
line of steamers, whioh, if carried ont, will
materially diminish tho Canadian trade at
present carriod via New York.
Tho service proposed is a weekly one, con.
ducted by steamers of 7,000 tons gross, reels,
ter, length C2S foot over all. 61 feet breadth.
18,000 horse-power. It is also estimated that
tho capaolty of these ships for cargo would
bo greater than tho whole first-class freight
from Canada, as shown by published statis
tics. Tho only diffloulty in tho way is tho draught
of twenty-seven foot, which at present is too
mnoh for tbe St. Lawrence Channel.
When asked if the advantages of tho pro
posed lino would attract American trade he
replied that ho thought it certainly would, as
Eassangors by this lino could be landed in
hicago as Boon as direct passengers in New
York. 8uch service- in connection with tne
Iiroposod Faclfio Ocean line will attract a
urge Eastern and China trade. By means of
tho New Sanlt line passengers landed at Que.
beo or Halifax will arrive in Duluth or St.
Paul within a few hours of tno time they aro
now landed in New York.
" lias tho Oontral Paciflo Railroad any In.
tcrest in this lino?"
" None in particular, except what effeottt
will havq on freight and traffic in common
with all Canadian railways. It is an acknowl
edged faot that trade between Europe and
America can be corriod on more expeditiously
by the Canadian route, especially to tho
Western States, and with this soname tho
Sreaterpart of this Amorican trade will bo
Ivortod to Canada."
