TweIve-Day Snow Blockade on Lines

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver, Feb. 9.-With the exception
of the branch between Durango and
Silverton, the snow blockade ON tho
lines of the Denver G Rio Grande in
southwestern Colorado has been lifted
according to advices received at tho
general offices of the company Mon
day night.
There is but slight promise of relief
before five days for the mining town
of Silverton, which was reported
suffering from a shortage of food sup
plies. The big rotary snowplow passea
lockwood on its way from Durango /
Silverton. The distance between
lockwood and Silverton is twenty
seven miles. and at the present rate
of progress it is doubtful if Silverton
can be reached before Saturday.
A small quantity of provisions
reached Silverton transported by men
on snowshoes.
The line over Cumbres pass has
been cleared of drifts running from
twenty-five to forty feet deep, and the
first train since Jan. 25 passed over
the summit on the 7th. This opens
the line 10 Antonito on the Santa Fe
branch for the purpose of clearing
that line. which is blocked near Tres
Piedras.
7 The first train to arrive at Durango
since the storm became serious
reached the town carrying twelve
days mail from Denver.
The branch between Durango an
Pennington was opened late Monday
and progress was reported by work
men attacking the blockade of the
Rico-Telluride road.

snowsIIde Forty Feet Deem.

Grand Junction.-Baxter pass on the
Uintah railroad, fifty miles northwest
of this city, is the scene Of the bitter
est fight against a monster snow
blockade that the Uintah has been
called upon to wage in fourteen years.
A snowslide forty feet deep is piled
up on the track for distance of g.
700 feet. This is not the worst fea-
ture, as the track over Baxter pass
averages 71s per cent for six miles,
making a climb of 2,400 feet in that
distance and the steepness of the
grade makes snow bucking a perilous
occupation.
