DENVER, COL, Feb. 9.-This was the
sixteenth day Of the great snow storm in
the mountains. The wind was blowing a

fresh slides occurred, covering the tracks
with great piles of snow, rocks, etc, at
various points. Not wheel was turning.
and the outlook Is more serious than at
any time since the storm began.
The Denver & Rio Grande railroad was
open only between Denver and Salida. Two
eastbound trains are stalled at Minturn.
