Weather Prevails.

Denver, Col, April 17.-Reports from
northern Colorado are to the effect
that another storm has prevailed on
the prairies for the past "a hours and
still continues. 1t began with misty
rain anddeyelopedinto veritable biz
gard. The loss of stock will be great,
as they have become greatly weak
ened by exposure to the storms of the
past two weeks and lack of sufficient
food. The snow is drifting badly and
railroad traffic is being delayed. In
the vicinity of Denver and on the
plains the storm is described as the
worst for years.
Cheyenne, Wyo., April 17.-One Of
the worst storms in recent years has
been in progress here for the past 10
hours Snow began to fall early Mon
day morning and several inches were
added to the large amount already on
the ground. The snow is light and a
high wind has drifted it badly. The
railroads are using their snow buck
ing machinery.
Three locomotives were demolished
in freight wreck at Borie, 20 miles
west of here, caused by two trains be-
ing unable to see each other on account
of the binding storm. Traffic was de-
layed five hours.
The live stock losses from this and
former storms are enormous. Re-
ports which have been lacking up to
this time show that thousands of cat
tie and sheep have been lost. One
ranch alone lost $500 head of cattle,
and another lost 5000 sheep. All the
small ranchmen in western Nebraska
and South Dakota and eastern Wyom-
ing have lost heavily The temper
ature is now near zero,
