Great storm in wyoming and Utah.

CuEyESSE. Wyo.. Oct H.-For two days
the severest storm ever known on the
Union Pacific has been raging here and as
far west as Ogden, Utah. Tclegraphic
communication has been cut off
in all directions. This dispatch
goes through on temporary wire. All
railroads are blocked and the snow in
cuts is eighteen feet deep in some places.
The snowplows have been hard at work
between Granite and Laramie. The snow
is five feet deep on a level Half
q dozen east. bound trains were tied
ND here last night, and thirty
coach loads of people from the West have
pulled in, with more TO follow. The Chey-
enne Northern is entirely blocked, and no
one knows where the belated trains
on il are. Reports have been re-
ceived OF immense loss OF cattle
and horses in Northern Colorado and Wy
omine. 1t is estimated that almost one
third of all the animals on the ranges
were destroyed by the storm. An I'M
known man perished in the storm near
Greeley, Col, yesterday.

Forty-seven carloads of new; chairs for the

OF 1900 candle-power each, were being sus-
pended this afternoon trole the massive
roof. The downtown streets were full Of
wagons loaded with decorating material.
The committee which haszcharge of the
arrangements of the dedicatGry ball held a
meeting at Gen. Miles Office this after
noon and decided to sell NJ, more tickets
for admission. Three thousand have al
