A Great Storm Inn the Far West.

DESTRUCTION. OF PROPERTY AND LOSS OF LIFE.
DENVER, Coll, May GA terrific storm
OF rain fell over large area OF Douglas
and El Paso counties, in this State, yester-
day afternoon. It is believed to have been
most violent along span Of the Rocky
mountains which separates the head-Waters
of the Arkansas and Platte. rivers. Cherry
creek. which empties into the Platte at Den
yer. and which is ordinarily dry, was sud-
denly deluged at O'Clock this morning,
and in less than one hour the entire western
portion OF the city was flooded. Seven
bridges were swept away, and large
amount Of other property was destroyed.
Owing to the efficiency OF the fire depart
ment the entire population OF the district
devastated was aroused and warned IN time
to escape, and it is now believed that no
lives have been lost in this city other than
that OF an unknown man whose Dody was
found in freight-car, where he had prob
ably been asleep. The flood involved sew
eral other streams on either side or the Dl-
vide. The Denver and Rio Grande railroad
lost a bridge near. Colorado Springs, inter:
rupting the running OF trains on Inns end
OF the road to-day. Three bridges were.
srent away on the Kansas-Pacific railroad.
4 freight train on that road, containing
eighteen cars, broke through the bridge
over Kiowa river, carrying with it John 0.
Baker, the engineer; Frank selden and
John Pratt, tiremen. whose bodies were not
recovered. ta3n..2 =,
The debras drift from Cherry creek lodged
against the Colorado Central railroad bridge
across the, Platte river, and forced out
portion Of its support. This road also sus-
tanned considerable: damage on; its cheyenne
division, put probably its trains and those
OF the Denver and Rio Grande railroad will
move regularly tomorrow afternoon. SO
