Denver, Feb. 1.-THE Morey- Boett-
cher-Havemeyer sugar interests let con-
tracts yesterday for the construction
the beet fields. The road will be an
extension of the present sugar line,
and will be built directly south of

greatly increase the acreage OF the in
dustry. The contract was let to J. A.
Osner of Denver. and consists OF grad
ing and laying rails.
I'VE are building a railroad not to
delve into the railroad business, but
merely to increase our already large
beet acreage. Our mair object in con-
nection with the road is to keep our
factories in Lovcland, Fort Collins and
Greeley well supplied with sugar beets,
and to do this we will extend the road
south to Johnstown. The road is at
present eight miles long, from Lupton
to Johnstown. Although there may be
many more extensions in the future,
they will be merely to open up more
Hsugar beet country, which is our only
kpbject in building railroads at all. said
MIR. Griffin, general manager of the
new road.
Mr.. Griffin said that ground would
be broken for the new extension within
the next three weeks, or just as soon
as the weather allowed The work
should be completed by July LIST.

people are Incorporated under the
name of the Denver & Great Western.

DEATH IN SNOWsLIDE
TWO MEN LOST NEAR sILvERroN
Miners Caught and Carried to Their
Death While Out snowshoeins
Near Their Cabin.

I Denver, Feb. 1S.-A Republican spe-
cial from Silverton last night saws:
The first fatal snowslide OF the win
ter occurred this afternoon in the vi
cinity of the Irene mine, on Cement
creek, about seven miles from Silver
ton. Two Austrian miners. Peter Casa
granda and Rudolfo Sarchleti, lost
their lives in a tragic manner, their
bodies being buried under tons of
snow and debris where they probably
will remain until spring, when the
menting of the snow bring them TO
view.
Sarchleti and the Casagranda broth
ers. Daniel and Peter, were leasing on
the Irene mine and lived in a cabin a
short distance away. This afternoon,
having rugged up some snowshoes, Pc
ter Casagranda and Sarchleti went out
on the mountain side to engage in the
exhilarating sport of snowshoeing,
while Daniel Casagranda stood in the
door as spectator. Without warming
the whole side of the mountain sud
denly seemed to start downward and
before the men could realize what was
taking place they were caught in a
snowslide several hundred feet across
and carried like straws down the
mountain to their doom.
They were seen to throw up their
hands and make desperate efforts 10
escape from the slide, but in a moment
were covered by snow from far above
and disappeared from sight. The slide
rushed half a mile down the mountain
into the gulch below and was only
stopped by the mountain on the other
side. The outer edge of the slide as it
rushed along caught the cabin and COM
pletely demolished it, Leaving Dan
Casagranda buried in the ruins, from
which he was rescued uninjured by
other men who had been working in
an adjacent mine.
Search was instituted for the buried
men. but the extent of the slide was
so great and the distance it ran so far
that it was like seeking the proverbial
needle in a haystack. The only trace
of the unfortunate victims which was
discovered was the coat of one, which
was found near where the men were
when the avalanche started. The
search for the bodies was continued
until dark, but with no success, and it
is doubtful if they will be found before
the snow leaves in the spring.
The men killed were about twenty
five years of age, both single. They
had lived and worked in the district
several years and were well known
and respected as Woodworking and
honest miners. They had been leasing
on the Irene mine since the holidays.
