TERRIFIC BLIZZARD
IN GULF OF FINLAND 700 FISHERMEN ON ICE-FIELD [BY CABLE —PRESS ASSN. —COPYBIGHT.] (Received March 11, 9.30 a.m.) HELSINGFORS, March 10. A blizzard is raging in the Gulf of Finland, and has interrupted the air search for 700 fishermen and 100 horses, who are marooned on an icefield, and are believed to be drifting towards the Esthonian coast. The ice-breaker Tamo has been sent to search, but the blizzard greatly reduces the prospect of rescue. The storm is so severe that steamers are unable to attempt the passage of the Gulf; consequently, Finland is practically isolated from the South.
