Al Aberdeen.

Aberdeen, S. D., Jan. 5.-The
Dig storm came to a conclusion
last night after the greatest ac-
tiyity for nearly forty hours.
The drifts Of snow are largest
ever seen in the history of this
place and many days must elapse
before the streets are cleared.
On the James river division of
the Milwaukee road trains We're
sent north, south and west this
afternoon but are not making
much progress. \ snow plow
and drag-out crew went east on
the Fl. & d. this morning and it
is hoped to have that line open
for traffic west of Montevideo
some time tomorrow.

The storm.

It is not often that a new year
in Dakota is ushered in with
rain and fog, but such was the
case this season. Saturday ev-
ening, however, the wind switch
ed around to the northwest, and
Sunday morning dawned with
premonitions of storm, which
before the day had closed devel-
oped into blizzardy proportions
and which during the night in
creased in fury and continued
during the following day and did
not subside until Tuesday morn
inc. The storm had all the char
acteristics of an old fashioned
blizzard, and piled the snow in
drifts that made the roads in
some places almost impossible,
while in other places the roads
are swept bare, a condition which
makes neither very good sleighing
or wheeling. On the west side
of Main street the snow was piled
up in places nearly as high as
the second floor of the buildings
and the clearing of the walks
gave the occupants Of the adjoin-
ing buildings plenty of good ex-
ercise Tuesday.
The trains did not attempt to
move Monday, but on Tuesday
the passenger from the east ar
rived, showing that the road to
the east was not badly drift
ed However this was not SO
on the line west, as the rotary
snow-plow went through We'd
nesday, and has since been work
ing it's way west, but up to time
Of going to press communities
tions with Aberdeen had not
been opened.
