CYCLONIC STORM THROUGHOUT EAST Snow, Wind and Cold Predicted Predict-ed From Florida to Maine by Weather Forecaster. Washington, April 3. A whirling gale and snowstorm which enveloped the Virgiula Capes last night and to day did not tempt the German auxiliary auxil-iary cruiser Prinz Eitel Frlederich to make a dash for the s'a through the cordon of hostile cruisers outside and at 1 o'clock this afternoon an official offi-cial government dispatch from Hampton Hamp-ton Roads said the German raider still was moored to her wharf. The storm which drew the curtain of secrecy over the Prinz Eitel for a few hours by destroying all means of communication with the Hampton Roads district, save wireless, started a crop of rumors saying the German cruiser had dashed behind the curtain cur-tain of snow flakes and past the watch dogs at the entrance to Chesapeake Chesa-peake Bay The governmental agencies got in touch with Newport News. Va. and established that the Prinz Eitel had attempted no new daring exploit.
