HURON, 5. D.. March 12.-Because of
the severe wind and drifting snow,
nothing has been done today toward
raising the snow blockade. resulting
from yesterdays storm, which to the
railroads was the worst ever expert
enced in the state. All lines are closed,
the tracks in many places being ten or
fifteen feet under snow, with drifts
several miles long. 1t was 10 degrees
below zero here this morning. If the
cold continues suffering will result
where fuel and feed for stock are
scarce. Seeding will be three weeks
later than usual in nearly all the state
east of Missouri river because of the
deep snow, which is from four to five
feet on the level.
CHAMBERLAIN. S. D. March 12.-The first
eastern train for a week arrived Wednes-
day, but the road Is again blocked by the
present storm, and it will be at least several
days before the blockade is raised. The snow
banks along the railroad tracks are high
that the slightest breeze f1l.s the passage
through them with snow. The present storm
is severe on cattle in sections not in condl-
ton to Withstand storm.
VERMILLIoN, S. D., March Ex-senator
Gunderson has returned from Pierre. He
says that no person has any idea Of the
amount of snow that lies in certain portions
Of the state. Until recently there has not
been much difficulty in finding feed for the
stock, but now everything Is eaten up and
there is no possible way OF either taking the
stock to another place where feed might be
found or to bring feed in to the range. The
cattle and sheep are beginning to starve to
death IN great numbers. One man who had
5000 sheep a short time ago now has but
800 left. There is no doubt there will be
terrible mortality during the next SIX weeks
by starvation. Several of the senator's party,
including the governors wife. are still showed
in at Wofsey. r
ISHPEMING, Mich. March 12-The worst
storm In five years Is raging in the upper
peninsula. Freight trains are blockaded on
both the South Shore and Chicago & North
road has been stuck in drift at the Buffalo
mine Fifty men are now at work clearing
the track, but If the storm does not soon
abate 1t is likely that the train will not
be moved today. All passenger trains on this
end Of the road are tied ;up on account of
freight trains on the western end OF the South
Shore, between Nestorias and Duluth, are
tied up and will not be moved until the storm
Is over. 80

man to Revive 1t.
CHICAGO. March 12-The Posts
Washington special says: Secretary of
State Sherman is said to be contem-
plating negotiations for a treaty with
the five states composing the Greater
Central American Republic, along the
lines of the celebrated Frelinghuysen-
Zevala treaty, which in effect estab-
hshed an American protectorate over
Nicaragua and committed the govern
ment to the construction of the water
way. This treaty was pending when
Mr.. Cleveland went into the White
house twelve years ago About the first
thing the latter did was to withdraw
the agreement between the two coun-
tries, his ground for so doing being
that the treaty, if carried into effect,
would be a perpetual menace to the
notions peace, and would provoke end
less complications with other countries
1t is now said to be Secretary Sher-
mans purpose to resurrect the Frel-
inghuysenZavala treaty and frame a
new agreement embodying many of
its salient features.

night Is nearly stationary at 34s feet. At
O'CLOCK this morning 1t had reached a
height OF S4.7 feet, rise of seven-tenths Of
a foot within the past twenty-four hours.
This, considering the great height already
reached and the wide expanse which the river
must cover, is an unusual increase The
fact that fall has begun at Cairo indicates
that the crest Of the flood has been reached.
