WIND STORM
SWEPT OVER
The PLAINS.
Unaccompanied by Snow or Rain.
Similar to the Terrific Sand
Storms Of the Desert.
STANDS WITHOUT APARALLEL
In Many Responsibilities Down in
Colorado-Gale Blew Eighty-two
Miles an Hour.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, Nov. y.
The damage by the storm will ap-
proxlmate 100000. and Is due entirely
to destruction by the wind. Light wires
and telegraph wires are still strewn
across the trolley wires in many places
and street railway traffic will not be
resumed until some time tomorrow.
About four hundred houses and busi-
ness houses are damaged and many
trees were uprooted. No lives were lost
in the storm.
The storm was not attended by rain
or snow. The gale comes direct from
Pixies Peak. which Is west Of the city,
and It blew from l p. m. to q. m. At
2:3O y. M, when the wind gauge at Col
orado College was destroyed. registered
velocity Of eighty-two miles an hour.
The weather to-day has been fair and
warm, with little wind.
DENVER. Col, Nov. 22.-1t is i'm
possible for the railroads to estimate
the amount of damage suffered from
the wind storm which swept the lines
for nearly one hundred miles along the
base Of the mountains yesterday and
last night. The wires were blown down
and trains are moved with great cau-
ton In the absence Of telegraphic or
ders. seriously delaying traffic. Many
freight cars on sidings had their roofs
blown off. station buildings werl dam
aged more or less all through the storm
region and the tracks were strewn with
wreckage which further retarded the
movement Of trains.
Houses Damaged.
Between Pueblo and Colorado Springs
houses were damaged, hay stacks
blown away and outbuildings demolIsh-
ed. The property loss will be heavy
among the ranchmen.
The storm stands without a parallel
in many respects. Formeris severe wind
storms lave been accompanied with
either rain or snow. but In this case II
was neither and the wind carried sand,
gravel and small stones. similar to the
stand storms Of the desert. 1t was re-
markable and unlike any past storm In
the scope of territory covered, though
apparently terminating Mt the foothills.
Cripple Creek and the district sur
rounding was basking in bright, clear
weather, similar to that of Denver, yes
terday.
Restoring the Wires.
Tralnmaster Deem. from Lu Junta,
with all the linemen to be had, is en-
gagged in restoring the Santa Fe wires
between Denver and Pueblo. while
companies OF linemen of all the roads
/. are hard at work endeavoring to re-
store the wires and enable business to
be resumed at the earliest possible mo-
ment. Between Durango and Alamosa,
where the Rio Grande had trouble
with its trains Wednesday, the snow
storm has passed and trains are being
moved with reasonable promptness.
But that was an entirely different
storm from the one which devastated
Colorado Springs and the country be-
tween there and Pueblo.
The losses TO property from yester-
days storm amount to 100000. No
loss OF life has been reported.

assay by L. J. Bond of Denver showed
the total values in the sample to be
S135.74 per ton. The owners are work
ing a force of five men, taking out ore
for shipment to Globe, and about eight
tons have already been received here
Mr.. MOrey will put additional ore
teams on the road at once, and it prom
iSes to prove a profitable undertaking
for the owners. There is n good wagon
road to within short distance of the
line of the proposed railroad from
Globe. That section of ella county is
rich in copper and gold and is attract
ing much attention.
Colonel James A. Fleming, president
of the Black Warrior Copper company,
who was in town on Wednesday. in

that it will prove efficient in reducing
the ores. All the tanks, to the num-
Der of twenty-five. and the launderS.

of $1,000. The company has now
under consideration plans for material

construction of concentrator, smelter

NEw MExIeo,s GoLpEN SANDS.

Santa Fe. n. NJ. May 2-The Rio
Arriba Placer Mining company was
organized by Kansas City and St
Louis capitalists about twelve or four
teen months ago. and the company
subsequently acquired about 100 acres
of the placer grounds n few miles
above Abiquiu on the Rio Chama. the
purchases covering the river bed as
well as the placer land on either side.
The numerous thorough tests made by
the experts of the corporation salts
fed all concerned that the golden
values concealed in the deposits had
not been exaggerated. bUt the same
difficulty was experienced thar had
discouraged previous prOspeCtorS Il
was found that most of the gold was
so fine and light that It could nOy be
saved by ordinary hydraulic methods.
Mr. Jacard and his persistant aSSOci-
ates sent out other men tostudy the
situation and offered them large in
ducements to report n practicable plan
whereby the flour gold rs well as the
nuggets could be saved at 4 profit.
Finally the conclusion was reached
that all the gold was intimately as
sOciated with black sand. that the sand
itself carried large values and all the
values could be saved by concentrating
gravel down To the black sands and
then smelling the concentrates.
