London, March 28.
A blizzard in the United Kingdom has done much damage.—Reuter Special.
March 29.
The combination of snow and wind during the blizzard which has been raging is unprecedented. It will be days before the full effects are known owing to the interruption of communications.
Roads are blocked, villages isolated, farm work and work at the collieries suspended. The 10 inches of snow in Birmingham are typical of the conditions existing in the north.
Trees blocking the rails have stopped the tram cars in London and in other cities.
The conditions are worst on the railways where there is a tangle of broken wires on the tracks, and trains are compelled to move very slowly with men with flags on each Troops returning to the trenches ook 23 hours on the journey from Aberdeen to London.
