CHEYENNE, March ga snow storm
exceeding in violence and duration any
previous season, set in at II ?. NJ. Oh the
Sth inst, continuing without abatement
until noon to day, ranging in velocity from
so to 64 miles per hour, carrying snow with
it and drifting in banks ten or fifteen feet
high, 10 the city, so far, only one roof
has given way. 1t extended from Bitter
Greek on the west to Julesburg on the
east. A great number of the cuts are
level full of sand, and trains on the Union
Pacific. Denver Pacific. and Colorado Cen
trail are either side tracked or showed in,
The plows stationed here have been moved
out, and tomorrow morning, if the storm,
which has not wholly ceased, does not
increase, they will be vigorously manipu-
lated. Passenger trains No 3, of the Sth
and 9th, are lying at North Platte; No. 4,
of the Sth at Bitter Greek, and the 9th al
Green River. Freight train No. 6 is re-
ported at Separation, and the emigrant
west bound, of yesterday, near Bushnell
The Denver Pacific is side tracked at Carr
and the Colorado Central between Collins
and LoYeland. There is no reliable evi
dence of individuals having been lost il
the snow in the vicinity, though there are
many rumors to that effect No commu
nication north, whittier many freight out
fits are now travelling. Probably the los
of stock will be great, if not of life.

HOUSE

HOUSE.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-Mr. Kelly said
that though he was chairman of the coin
age committee he was as ignoront of the
decentralization of silver as Messrs. Blaine
and Voorhees,. He acknowledged his
grave mistake in indorsing Secretary Nc
Cullough's policy, but had corrected it
soon after. He made a specific denial of
all other charges and insinuations of Mr..
Garfeld's speech He declared that the
letter written regarding his kelly 81 nomi-
nation was written by Mr.. Foster, and that
it said that Gov. Hayes, being friend of
Kelly, of neighboring state, desired his
denomination, although, he kelly had in
1875 stumped the state Of Ohio against
Hayes.
Mr. Foster rejoined in humorous strain.
Mr. Garfield said he had not misstated
Kelly and quoted from his remarks on the
demonetizing bill, showing that he under
stood its effects. He read from the Gin
cinnati Commercial description of the
Youngstown meeting, which was charac-
terlzed as strongly communistic in tone.
The house went into committee of the
wholeon the diplomatic appropriation bill,
which appropriates, l,036, 1885, reduction
from the state department estimate. The
salaries of the ministers to Great Britain.
France. Germany and Russia are fixed at
$4,000 each, Spain, Austria, Italy, Brazil,
Mexico, Japan aud China, at $4,000
each; Sweden, Norway, Turkey, Vene-
zuela, Hawaiian Island, Argentine Republic
and United States of Columbia, $500
each; TO Bolivia, $4,000: Guatemala, Costa
Rica. Honduras. Salvador and Nicaragua,
one minister, 100000: Hayu, $4,000;
Liberia, 81, 500.
Mr.. Singleton explained that the COM
mittee had reduced the salaries of the four
| principal ministers abroad from $l7, 800 to
| $4,000, an amount amply sufficient con-
sideriug the work to be done by them. He
referred TO the fact that the consul at
| London received 81 a head for every
American seaman shipped at that port
and every dollar Of tax upon commerce
was used at the consulate aud not one COW
cred into the treasury. That was what
made tie position of consul so much sought
after.
Mr.. Cox, of Ohio, inquired whether the
law did not require all such fees to be
turned into the treasury.
Mr.. Singleton replied that it did not.
MIR. Hewitt thought the gentleman from
Mississippi was mistaken. All fees col
lected for shipping seameu were either
paid into the treasury or accounted for il
the accoIHts of the consul.
Mr. Singleton continued, and said th'
appropriation committee had endeavoreC
on one hand to guard against retrenchmen
which might impair the service, and on tn
other to prevent any unnecessary eXpendi
ture of public money. His own opinion
was that the preseut system of servic
might be much simplifed, and two or thre
ministers, stationed at some central point
in Europe, with a competent corps 0
agents, would answer every purpose,
Alter speech in favor of the extension
of our foreign commerce, the commIttet
, rose and the house adjourned.

WASHINGTON, March ll.-Secretary
Sherman was before the committee on
coinage weights and measures this A. NJ.
and gave his views about the proposed
measure for issuing certificates of deposits
of silver bullion, bat the committee came
to 10 conclusion as to the details of the
issue Of certificates,
DR.. Lin3erman gave information con-
cerning facilities for coming the new silver
dollar, and said that to double the present
capacity would require three additional
mints, or two in addition to that at New
Orleans; with these FIVE or six
millions month could be
coined at present, making allowance for
interruptions two million and half could
be coined mouth; this would make $780,
O0O000a a year; the New Orleans mint
could be placed in working condition fol
| fifty to seventy five thousand dollars so al
to coin one million a month; this added t.
the coinage of the other mints would make
| $42, 900, 600 per year.
