BLIZZARD.
KANSAS CITY. No, Jan. iS.-A Sc
we're blizzard RACES in Kansas, Mis-
souri, and Nebraska. Dispatches from
by far the worst Of the season, and sons
points report that IL is the most severe
ever experienced. The storm began
Saturday night, continuing throughout
the day and most OF Sunday night
On the average the snow fell about
eight inches on the level, but the strong
wind drifted it badly, and many trains
on the railroads have been abandoned
or greatly delayed.
Special dispatches from points in Mis-
souri, indicate that the storm has been
less severe there than in Kansas. Snow
began falling about noon, but not 20
any very great depth. II is still snow
ing there, but the fall is light
4 dispatch from Lincoln, Neb, says
that reports received there are 10 the
effect that a storm Of great severity is
raging throughout the State. A peculiar
feature of the storm IS its occurrence on
the anniversary OF the terrible blizzard
two years ago, when so many people
perished from the cold. Reports of tho
present storm indicate it is no less Sc
we're than that of which it is the ami
versary.
