THE STORM
SNOW FALLING FOR THREE DAYS,
BUT NOT MUCH DAMAGE RE-
PORTED FROM ANYWHERE.

ed for Time Being Only.

The snow storm which set in at l
o'clock Friday afternoon has continued
nearly all the time since then, and
while there has been snow every day,
and almost hourly, its depth here is
not great. At Denver and Greeley
there are said to be eighteen inches.
with a foot or more at Medicine Bow,
the greater depth starting at Rock
River. At Green River and points be-
yond there has been several inches of
snow, and trains on the roads west of
that point are quite late. East of Sid
ney there was no TO- yesterday, rain
falling as far eastward as Omaha.
There has been considerable delay to
trains. The trains from the east ar
rived this morning between 4 and 6
o'clock, those from the west being a
great deal further behind. The trains
due last night, Nos. 6 and 2, were
made a part of train No. s today, that
train running in three sections from
six to ten hours late.
Trains Running Late.
Nos. 8 and 5 were delayed yesterday
afternoon until about 6 o'clock. Both
trains arrived at Cheyenne behind
time, but a hot pin on the engine of
No. 3 coming over the hill still further
delayed the train. No. 4 from the west
came at 6 o'clock.
No Blocking on Wyoming Lines.
Down to noon today there had been
no blockading on the lines of the Wyo-
ming division. There was a heavy fall
of snow on Sherman hill, but the plows
had kept the road open. West of here
a pillow was at work keeping he snow
down. Superintendent Anderson said
he had no fear of the line blocking.
Freight trains are being delayed more
than passenger trains, but the expe-
dited freight is moving on fairly good
schedules.
Wires Reported Down.
The wires west of Green River and
east of Sidney, Neb., were down this
morning, but Manager Smith was
working to Denver and by that city to
eastern points. Business for the coast
was also sent by way of Denver. The
Postal company's lines were crippled
westward to some extent, but the
southern connections were open and
business was not greatly impeded.
Mail Line Blocked.
DR.. Swigart of the Laramie-Leslie
stage and mail line, who is now in this
city, started a man on horseback tc
Leslie with the mail this morning, but
the rider was compelled to turn bach

ing unable to get through the snow, IN
places being above his knees. The
doctors man said fully twenty inches
lay in places along the top of the
range.

MARIN COUNTY.

SAN RAFAEL. Sept. 29.-The first
political campaign meetings in this
county were held today in Sausalito,
Mill Valley, Tiburon. Novato, Lark
spur. Corte MADEIRA, San Anselmo and
this city by w. H. Langdon, the guber-
Material candidate of the Independence
League, who used an automobile, with
banners hanging and flags flying, an
nouncing his candidacy.
Langdon and his automobile party ar
rived at Sausalito late and had to hurry
to make their appointments Langdon
was introduced to his audiences by
Robert Duke, one of his assistants In
the District Attorneys Office OF San
Francisco. In proportion to the popu-
lation. he had his largest and most en-
thusiastic meeting in San Anselmd, the
home of Duke. The meeting in this city
was the largest open-air meeting that
Langdon had during his campaign
Fully 500 men, women and children as
sembled in front of the Courthouse this
evening to get a glimpse of Langdon
and hear him speak.
Shortly after o'clock Langdon whirfed
through the streets of this city in bis
automobile, and as he alighted in front
of the Courthouse was cheered.
In the course of his remarks here
Langdon said: This is the third time
in four years that I have appeared
before the voters, and am proud to
say that I have no apologies to make
for my public record. I am controlled
by no man or set OF men. no boss or
set of bosses, and my actions have been
guided by my conscfence--not by the
dictates of designing people"

MADlGAN ACCUSED
Of PERJURY.
Continued from Page 20. Column 4.

Madigan left here last Monday, os-
tensibly for a weeks sojourn in Napa.
According TO his announced pro-
Monday, attending to his municipal
duties at the City Hall. But those
who are familiar with the facts and
who do not love him say they do not
expect to see him here soon again.
It is surmised by these that he has
got wind of what was preparing for
him and has decided to forego the
risk of facing his enemies at the bar
of justice.
Madigan was elected Mayor last
April over James Roney, the Republi-
can incumbent, after one of the bitter
est political battles in the history or
Vallejo. No sooner did he secure his
seat than he started out to punish all
of Roney's friends and supporters, and,
in an endeavor to throw discredit upon
the former administration, charged
that the retiring Mayor had profited
bv the contract entered into between
the city and the George H. Tay Com
paay of San Francisco whereby s6f,oVo
worth of pipe was purchased for the
extension of the main line OF the mu-
nicipal water system.
If is now rumored about town, and
there seems to be a very good ground
for the story. that Madigan stands IL
able to arrest for perjury in falsely
registering and swearing that he was
q, native of New York, when, in fact.
he was born in Canada and was never
naturalized.
Madigan may have other ugly
charges to disprove when he returns
to town.
Madigan came here from Denver in
1883 and was employed at the navy
yard. In making his statement for
registration for work on Mare Island
he stated that he was a nativc-bo
citizen. subsequently he registered as
an elector and sworc to the same IN
formation.
Some time later Madigan was elected
City Assessor on the Democratic ticket.
He then entered business in this city
and became the locas representative of
Hearst. He prospered and now he is
worth at least $4,000, being one of
the owners of the largest stationery
stores here. the Vallejo Steam Laundry
and a steam laundry at Bremerton
wash. Last spring Madigan was
chosen Mayor. principally through The
helm and influence of the San Francisco
Examiner, which sent special men here
and devoted columns to boosting him.
Present indications make 1t appear
that Madigan will have TO stand trial
for 1alSo r621StIdtlon anu ltcSdi fOtluS
MadIgan has made many bitter ene-
mics by his attacks upon some Of the
leading citizens Of Vallejo. In particu-
lar he has used every endeavor to cast
odium upon exMayor James Roney
who has been Republican leader In
Solano County for thirty years. Roney
has served as Sherin OF this county in
addition to being Mayor Of Vallejo, and
is the secretary of the bureau of labor
at the Mare Island Navy Yard. He was
the man who led the Chamber of Com
merce fight for the building OF Gov
ernment vessels IN the navy yards OF
the country and was sent to Washing
ton by the populace of this city to fur
ther that policy.
There will be little disposition tc
show him any mercy il be is brought
