RAILROADS NOW ARE ALL OPEN.
Trouble in the Rocky Mountains
at an End.

All the railroads yesterday reported
their lines open. The trouble on the
Rocky mountain divisions Of the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern is report
ed to be at an end.
The Northern Pacific eastbound was
half an hour late yesterday. and the west
bound was about on time last night.
The Great Northern was five hours
late from the east, and between seven
ana eight hours late from the west. The
line is open at both ends, and the COM
pany expects to be running trains On
schedule time shortly.
Trains on the o. r. & N. were on time
yesterday.
The snoWstorm of yesterday did not pre-
vent the street railway running on sched'
ule time. The big snowploW was brought
out as soon as it commenced showing,
and the tracks were kept clear. At u
o'clock last night there was but little
snow in the air, but the company win
keep the pillow running all night so that
the tracks may be clear for the drst cars
out in the morning. Every effort will be
made to see that traffic does not get
stalled as it did when the unexpeeled
storm of last week came.

A Fuel Famine Threatened in Many
Dakota Towns.


st. Paul, Nov. 30.-NeWS from the great
blizzard has been meager today. SO far
as learned only five lives have been lost.
OF course nothing has yet been heard
from the remote distances beyond the
reach of the telegraph, and it may be an
other week before it can be positively
Gus loss of life.
The streets of the snowbOund Dakota
towns are being cleared as rapidly is pos
sible The extremely cold weather has
frozen the snow until the Immense drifts
have reached the proportions of gigantic
dcebergs, and dynamite is being used to
blast these out of the way, ordinary picks
and shovels being unable to make any
impression on them
Stock on the ranges has undoubtedly
suffered heavily, and a fuel famine is
threatened in many of the smaller towns
in the Dakotas This is by no means q
trivial matter where the mercury is rang
ing from 10 to 80 degrees below zero.
The railroads are beginning to get THEN
trains running again. The Great North

al trains on this road which were baine
held at Tower City and Fargo left those
points at 5 o'clock this evening, and the

The Northern Pacific officials do not ar
ticipate any further trouble and expect TO
have trains running on schedule time.

ma of the United States circuit court to-
day rendered a decision in the case of the
Southern Pacific company against the
California railroad commission, to re-
strain the commission from enforcing
its reduction in freight charges ordered

The decision sustained the legality OF
the commission, Judge McKenna holding
its functions were not only judicial, put
legislative, and that it has power not
only to adjust rates for freight and pas
senger traffic, but also to enforce us oe-

WEYLER'S CAMPAIGN A FAILURE
London Times Correspondent at Ha-

London, Nov. 29.-The Times CORE

on Captain General Weyler's failure to
cope with the rebellion. He adds:
1T is said that the present issue Of
bank notes is to be withdrawn and a
number issued based on the value Of sill

there is no metallic reserve, it is safe to

Just as al New Workers were Interested
last November in the marriage Of Miss
Vanderbilt with the duke of Marlborough,
so many outside the circle of her personal
friends here have been pleased TO read in
the dispatches from London that al the
queens last drawing room, though many
women were present, none was so much ad-
mired as our young compatrIot. Those who
We're fortunate enough to see her before the
altar Wlll readily believe this. for she made
lovely picture, which. however. was de-
tracted from by the boyish and unimpres-
sive appearance OF her husband. When she
swept the royaf group a graceful courtesy
i'm the throne room a few days ago there
was no detracting escort at her side. and
her tan wilowy figure rising amid bill
lows Of lace and satin drew forth murmurs
of admiration that even the ceremonioUs
air Of the place could not repress.
The young duchess wore a superb court
dress of thick. soft ivory-white satin. whose
train four yards in leigth. was embroidered
IN rose leaves tied in true-l0vers' knots
picked out in pearls and silver. The petit
coat OF the dress was festooned with tho
same founces of lace that adorned her we'd
ding gown. priceless brussels of exquisite
fneness wrought to order 10y the most skill
ful Of laceworkers. The short puued
sleeves were OF tulle ana satin. and tho low
corsage was veiled by lace. The regulation

Court presentations had latterly become
almost too numerous to retain their past
distinction, but quite lately the issuance
Of an order restricting the number pre-
scented 10 200 for each drawing room has
greatly enhanced the value of a presenta-
tion. The application comes not from the
one presented. but from her iutrOducer.
The etiquette Of the ceremony is all strict

kissed. which is done by the dcbutantes
placing her right hand. from which the
glove has been drawn, beneath that Of tho
queen, and sweeping down to touch her
lips TO the royal hand as she makes her

are excepted in this ceremony.

must be worn, Is, according to the printed
rules, low bodices, short sleeves and trains
