cntIon Cut or

Denver, Col, Oct. 1.-THE Republi-
nearly two days the severest storm ever
known on the Union Pacific railroad has
been raging here and as far west as
Ogden, Utah. La all directions the tele-
graphic communication was cut off un-
ill late last night, when this dispatch was
sent through on temporary wire. All
railroads have been blocked. the cuts
being filed with snow, which in some
places was piled up eighteen feet. Ro-
tary snow-plows have been hard at work
between Granite and Laramie, the snow
being five feet deep at the latter point.
The Cheyenne Northern is entirely
blocked, telegraph communication being
cut off. No one knows how belated
trains on it are. Two days have elapsed
since the road was showed in. 1t is
estimated that almost a third of tho. cat
tie and horses on the ranges have been
destroyed by the storm.

a Union Pacific train was derailed by
striking a snow bank and Conductor
King had both arms broken, while his
brother. a brakeman, received frac-
tured skull.
A few minutes later another freight
train, which was following the first one,
ran into the wreck, the engineer being
unable to see it on account of the blind
ing snow storm. and Engineer Howe
was terribly scalded. The trains were
running slowly at the time of the wrecks
and there Was no great damage done to
the rolling stock. Later in the day in
the Elmo yards Warner. a Denver and
Rio Grande brakeman, was fatally in
jured by being knocked from the top of
moving train by striking his head on
the framework of the car-weighing
scales.

COFFEEYILLE EXCITED.
Citizens Remained Under Arms During the
Entire Night.

Coffeevlle, Kan, Oct 14.-Last night
was one of widest excitement in this
town. Every male citizen was under arms
until broad daylight this morning. The
detective. Dodge. of the Wells-Fargo Ex-
press Company, wired here from Whar-
ton last night that large bodies of des-
peradoes were starting from that point
10 COffeevlle. with the ayowed Intention
of sacking it in revenge for the killing of
the members of the Dalton gang. At
once the alarm was given, and guards
were placed in a Gordon around the
town. with instructions TO halt every
one who approached and to kill any one
who refused to stop when told. The
night passed under intense nervous
strain, but the only incident was the
rapid firing of revolver by some un-
known person about , o'clock in the
southern part of the town. The shoot
ing is supposed to have been done by
some Joker TO frighten the people.
Other cities in the State were asked for
help last night. and they promptly re-
sponded with offers of men, but later In
the night they were told to stay at home,
as the people here believed themselves
able to cope with any band or outlaws
that might come forward. As the day
wore on this morning dispatches were
sent TO towns along the line of the rail-
road in the Indian Territory. and it was
learned there were no indications OF un-
usual bodies of men. II is now beheved
the whole thing was fake. got up by
some man who signed D0dge's name to
the dispatch. The letter received by
Kloeher. and signed "A Member OF the
Dalton Gang" is also believed to have
been written as a scare.
