Catching It.


KANSAS CITY.-The storm that has been
prevailing for the past two days extends over
q large area.
Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Iowa and Ne
braska, portions of South Dakota, Wyoming,
Wisconsin, Colorado and Indiana are COW
cred with show and slush.
From Indianapolis west to Springfield, Ill,
and toward Kansas City was at that time the
most completely wrecked section, from a
telegraphic standpoint. Thousands of be-
lated newspaper dispatches piled up unsent
in offices on the edge of the affected district.
Inquiries elected the fact that in the vari-
Gus railroad telegraph offices in Chicago the
dispatchers were completely in the dark as
to the movement of trains. In the emer-
gency engineers along the roads were pre-
sumed to be picking their way along approx
lmating as best they could the schedules.
The lines OF the Western Union are, as a
general thing, IN bad shape. This is not
caused SO much by the breakage of wires as
the mixing up of a half dozen messages by
the ice on the cross trees of the poles. Ice
being an excellent conductor messages won't
stick to their wires. but 60 OF in almost any
but the right direction
Wires at st. Joseph, Denver and Pueblo
were broken.
The Missouri and Kansas Telephone COM
pany have over 3, 600 wires down and make
the loss over $25, 600.
The greatest damage was done at Atchison
ana st. Joseph, where over one-half of the
wires are FRUSTRATED.
At Lawrence the switch board was burned
out. All toll lines except between Kansas
City and Lawrence are down.
The Postal Telegraph company was large
sufferer. The only wire in working condi-
ton was is the wire to Chicago

PatrIotIsm Portrayed.

Dispatches from numerous places along
the route taken by the funeral train which
conveyed the body of General Sherman from
New York to st. Louis, all show forth a
panorama of patriotism not to be checked
blythe hours of night or by cold and heavy
rain.
At all points along the route the people
crowded the stations, Grand Army posts were
drawn up in lime next the train; the people
crowding together behind them.
The rain was incessant during the night
through Pennsylvania, and until Pittsburg
was reachedi but the patriotic respect was
no less in the night time and in the rain than
during the following day.
At Mansfield, Pa, there was a delay of
few minutes, caused by the engine running
into an open switch. The train was running
slowly, SO that no damage was done and the
engine was pulled back on its track by an
other one. The train lost only five minutes.
A wait of forty minutes was given the fune-
raj train at Columbus, Ohio, during which
there was a crowd of about 10000 people
who gathered in the vicinity, the majority of
whom only secured a glance of the train at
distance, owing to the blockade. The train
pulled out on time at 3:15 p. IN.
Through Ohio and Indiana, where stops
were made, the 6. A. r. members were al
lowed to enter the funeral car and look upon
the casket.

Census of Animals.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The estimates of the
numbers and values of farm animals, made
at the end If each year and returnable on
January / to the department of agriculture,
have been consolidated. There appears to
have been little change in numbers, except
of the Rocky mountain area, where the win
ter of 1880 was unusually severe. Losses
were especially heavy on the Pacific slope.
The number of milch COWS is 16, 019, 59l, an
increase of 6,708 from last year. Other
cattle aggregate 36, SIS, 64S, including those
on ranches.
The estimated number of sheep are a.
431, 136. A tendency to increase of numbers
is seen IN most of the states, though the
heavy losses from the severe winter of last
year on the Pacific slope haze decreased the
aggregate. The aggregate number of swine
is 5O.625, los. showing a decrease of nearly 2
per cent. The average value Is S4.l5, de-
crease of 81 cents per head.
