BURIED UNDER SNOW.


ATWOOD, Kan, April 2-The extreme
northwest corner of Kansas is buried under
a heavy blanket of snow that is two feet
deep on the level and from eighteen TO
twenty feet in drifts. The prairie roads are
impossible. The Orleans and st. Francis
branch of the Burlington * Missouri Rv-
er Railroad, from Atwood to st. Francis,
is blockaded For six days the railroad
company has been working every man and
snow plow that can be secured, but fewer
than ten miles of the forty-five miles have
been cleared. Many cattle have died on the
range in this portion of the State. In near
iy all the towns there is a famine in fuel
and provisions. Coal and wood ran out sew
eral days ago. The people are burning loose
railroad ties, fence rails and lumber. 1t is
believed ii will be week before the road
can be opened.
The ice is too hard for the rotary rail-
road plow, and workers are now trying 10
open the cuts by chopping through the
ice with ak and pick. One drift near
Bird City is nearly mile long and is ten
feet deep. 1t has showed here every day
for a week and the binding white flakes
deter the workers. At St. Francis a Bur-
lington train is showed up. The roads
have been blocked since March 81.

be granted Tie @uit is brought oy Samuel
Pearson, a citizen OF the South African
Republic, residing at Barberton; Edward
Vanness, a citizen of New York, and
Charles d. Pierce, consul general of the
Orange Free State. and is against Cap
tain Pearson, of the steamer Elder Demp-
ster & Co., owners of the steamer, and
Messrs. Robert and Mathew Warriner,
who represent Elder, Dempster &s Co. here
The petition sets forth that the United
States and its people are at peace with
the South African Republic and the Orange
Free State and their citizens; that Great
Britain is at war with these republics
seeking TO destroy the property rights and
credits of the petitioners; that for the
purpose of carrying on this war the Anglo
Australian is now loading at this port
with munitions of war, namely, mules and
horses TO the number OF 1900, and to
the value of $l5O,OOO; that the steamer is
employed in the military service of the
King of Great Britain: that for some
time defendants have been forwarding
from this port such munitions of war;
knowing that these munitions and the ship
were in the military service of Great
Britain and that they were to be used
against the people of the South African
Republic and the Orange Free State; that
defendants are making use of New Or
leans as basis of the military operations
of Great Britain in it's war in South
Africa and to augment it's military sup
plies and arms: that by the use of these
munitions the armies of Great Britain are
laying waste and destroying the farms
and homes of petitioners and holding as
prisoners of war the wives and children of
one of the petitioners, Samuel Pearson;
that Samuel Pearson mas already suffered
the destruction and loss of property to the
value of $4,000. and is threatened with the
loss of $l5OOOO more, and finally that the
war can be carried on by Great Britain
only through the renewal of its military
supplies from this port and that when
these supplies cease the war must END. In
consideration of these statements, an in
junction is asked to prohibit the shipment
Of military supplies out of this port. A
temporary injunction is asked in the mean
time.
The Anglo-Australian was expected to
sail to-day, but the effect OF the order
issued by Judge Parlange will be to detain
her until the hearing on Saturday. Cen
eral Pearson has been in the city for sew
eral days arranging to bring the suit.
