BITTER WINTER
ON THE RIVIERA ENGLAND ESCAPES WHITE CHRISTMAS. Received Dec. 29, 6.50 p.m. LONDON, Dec. 28. England’s escape from the rigours of a white Christmas is amazing, in face of weather reports from all parts of Western Europe, where intense cold, with snow and sleet, gripped the country as far south as the Mediterranean.. Spain and Italy are suffering torrential rainstorms, causing severe floods? with loss of life and incalculable damage to orange groves in Spain. More than 100 fishing craft were lost on the Mediterranean Coast, and a huge floating dock was blown adrift. Six persons succumbed to the cold in Madrid.
