SUFFERING IN COLORADO.

Herders Frozen and Livestock Perish
ing by Hundreds.
Denver, Dec. 30.-TaIes of frightful
suffering from the cold and billiards.
by settlers in Eastern Colorado were
brought to Denver by crews and pas
sengers of belated trains over the
Union Pacific and Burlington. The
settlers are short of coal, and in many
Instances have resorted to corn as fuel,
while others are using hay in their
stoves.
Cattle are perishing by hundreds, the
tracks being hedged with their re-
mains. Along the Black Hills
branch Of the Burlington, from
Brush through to Alliance, there
has been cold, dense fog
for two days, and the frost has
, Oeen an inch thick. In several in
stances relief parties have found peo-
pie unconscious and partly frozen on
the prairie, and cowboys have been
rescued nearly frozen. Similar stor-
les come from along the Julesburg
branch of the Union Pacific.
Near Crook a boy tried to find his
way home from his herd in the biz
ldIu. 1e lOSC MS way, DuC MS morse
fought a way through to :. a corral
where, fortunately, the ranchman was
found. The boy was unconscious and
frozen to his saddle He was carried
into the house and thawed out, but the
horse died from the effects of its he
roic battle.
The Colorado authorities have been
appealed to to save thousands of scat
tered cattle that have drifted before
the blizzard and are succumbing to
wolves and thirst.

MILLIONS ARE IN WANT.
Fearful Ravages of Famine in Many
Parts of Russia.

-
st. Petersburg, Dec 3O.-The Rus
sian, government is face to face with
the grave question of how to feed 49,
100000 hungry peasants. These dis
tressed peasants are scattered over
numerous provinces in Central and
Eastern Russia and partly also in the
southwest and along the Volga. In
the greatest hurry the government has
sent commissioners into the famine
districts to make inquiries and report.
On the suggestion of Finance Minis
ter Witte, the government forwarded
$1,000,000 worth of rye to the threat
ened districts, but there is an uneasy
feeling that it will not reach the right
hands. The government also bought
$7,50O,0O0 worth of rye and wheat to
be forwarded after he9reports are re-
ceived.
The villagers are not only suffering
themselves, but the cattle are dying by
the tens of thousands and their horses
have to be sold, as they cannot feed
them. The outlook for the spring plow-
ing seems hopeless Untold millions
will be needed for relief if the peasants
are to keep their lands in cultivation.

BECOMING MOST ACUTE.
Scarcity Of Coal in New England May
Affect Traffic.

IS New York, Dec. 80. The coal
|stringency IN New England has be-
come so acute that curtailment of
train schedules on grailroads in that
section in the near future appears to
be almost inevitable. The New York,
New Hayen and Hartford is worse on
than the other roads, despite its many
coal depots along its lines, and it has
been forced to borrow and seize coal
~ number Of times Some Of the roads,
it; Is said, more than a month ago CON
sidered the cutting OF schedules in
view Of the possibility Of a shortage
and most of the roads in the country
which are not originating roads
adopted the measure. IS s
The operations Of New England fac
tories will also be affected, though up
to- the present only two factories have
been obliged to suspend operations on
account OF the fuel famine.

Governor.

WHAT CAPTAIN CHITTENDEN
THINKS OF PROPOSED ABAND-
ONMEg1T OF THE RIVER.
Sioux City, Iowa Dec 30. Captain
H. N. Chittenden. chief of engineers
for the Missouri river and Yellow
stone park, states that his forthcom-
ing report TO the war department upon
the condition of the Missouri river,
of which he now has entire charge,
will be the most important he has
ever made. 1t will deal with the ques-
tion OF whether the riyer should be
abando by congress. Personally
Captain Ghittenden does not believe it
would be wise to abandon the river,
but his report will have little of the
Personal equation. He says it will
cost 81 ,0OO, ,4444 a year to keep the river
in proper condition.
Captain Chittenden has just re-
turned from the park, where he will
spend much OF the winter, owing to
the fact that force of men will be
working till spring. He states that the
larger force of about 1000 men will
be put on again next Spring. Th9
work will include the building of six
large bridges, two across the Yellow
stone river and one across the Card
ner Plans have been accepted for an
entrance gate over the road leading
from the Northern Pacific railroad in
TO the park from the north, to cost
$4,000.

Paris, Dec. 80 The members Of the

rested In Madrid in connection with
the great safe frauds In this city; ar
rived at Orleans railroad station here
at 7::40 q. N. There was no demon
ed to tbs Conciergerie prison.
The arrival Of the fugitiVes was de-
void Of sensational incid dents, as the
French police had chosen an hour for
their return here when Paris was only
half awake. The crowd at the rail
road station was comparatively small,
but q large force Of police and soldiers,
mounted and on foot, was drawn up In
front Of the station and guarded all the
street approaches in order to prevent
the possibility of a popular demonstra-
ton. The party passed through
double lines Of police to the carriages
In waiting. Detachments Of mounted
police officers surrounded the vehicles,
which were driven at a rafting pace
through the gathering crowds to the
Conciergery, where minute prepara-
tions had been made to receive the
prisoners. i, S5. s3s15
The return Of the Humberts to Paris
Is the absorbing topic for discussion
throughout the city, indeed, through
Eout France, as no event since the re-
turn of Dreyfus has aroused such in
tense interest All classes Of society
are equally Interested, as the Hum
berts operations were SO colossal
and so interviewer with some Of the
foremost personages In France that
their return was viewed with appre-
hension. Crowds from all parts Of the
tcity were ready to assemble at the sta
lion and give the prisoners disorder
~ reception, but the secrecy Of the; po-
tlice baff1ed the plans Of the mobs and
permitted the Humberts to be landed
silently and swiftly inside the gray
walls of the prison. s@
