5aow Bound O" the Kflaiai Pacine R. R. It has been generally supplied that the Kansas Pacific K. R. would be free frum snow during the most severe winters, and that it would draw eon-i eon-i JeraLi.e traihe from the Union Pacific. But the following from the Dmver Sciei of Tu.-iday morning gives a different dif-ferent showing : The through passenger train on the Kaua3 Pacific, eommumy known as No. 3, aud due in tuis city on Friday Luorning last, arrived here at 7. In on Sunday morning, just forty-eigut iiours late, it was uetained by snow, and from the passengers who came in we ootain the lolloping particulars of their trip, which though tedious, and at times threatening, was happily marked by no sulieiing, either Irom cold, hunger or exposure. The train left Kansas City at 11 o'clock on Wednesday night the 14:h lust. It encountered some suoT up ihe Kansas- valley, which increased after passing lirookville, but nothing impeded its progress aud it arrived at Fins. 334 miles east of Penver. at 2.L'o, Thursday afternoon on time, i rouble being anticipated, two engines were attached to the train, aud at I'.OU it moved on westward into the tcrnole storm of snow and wind whicn was raging on the great plains. Drifls in the cuts became deeper, but no serious detention occurred uutil between Sheridan Sheri-dan aud i'oit U allace, when a heavy drift between three aud live feet deep was encountered, aud in which the train came to a halt. Here some eight or nine hours were lost, and the best eliorta of passengers and railway employees em-ployees were required all night to get the train to Wallace, which was reached reach-ed at about live o c ock on Friday morning. Here breakfast was obtained, ob-tained, and at eight o'clock, twelve hours late, with three new engiues, the train moved on. The day (Friday) was calm, but every cut was tilled. Arapahoe was reached at4:3Up. in., only thiry one miles having been made in eight hours. Here Conductor Hoskibs recommended recommend-ed every one to lay in a suoply of food; and a meal of buffalo steaks, good brad and bu:ter, and coffee was ob taiucd. The train passed on, making its way through drifts as high as the car windows, and reaching Cheyenne Wells about eleveu o'clock to remain there all night, during a howling wind, and in a drift as high as the cars themselves. them-selves. Saturday morning, the water in the engiues gave out and snow had to be melted to till the boilers. Toiling Toil-ing ail this day (Salurday) the train reacned First iew late in the evening, where it met an engine aud snow plow moving east to its aid, and finally arrived ar-rived at Carson at eleven o'clock at night. The obstructions were now all parsed. The scene of this blockade between Sheridan aud Carson is the divide ie-twceii ie-twceii Smoky Hill river aud the Big Sandy. It is a high, rough and broken brok-en prairie, subject to severe storms of suow and wind, and an exposed portion ot couutry at all seasous. There are many deep cuts and they will have to be fenced or covered to render the road always secure. Last year the same section was blockaded, but later iu the season. The company were preparing to protect the cuts but have been caught by the storm before they were ready. The blockade still continues. The trains duo here on Saturday and Suuday were at Wallace last evening. It was snowing and blowing furiously, and as soon as the storm subsided the snow plow and engines were to be sent out. The train which left here on Thursday night going east has not yet, we believe, got through, but exactly where it is we do not know. The A' its further says, speaking of the terrible storm that had raged in that region : By universa'. cou-eni, yesterday was acknowledged to bo the worst day of the season. It was cold, dismal, snowy, windy, and generally disagreeable. dis-agreeable. In the memory of the oldest inhabitant there have been few meaner days in Ienver. Late In the afternoon it ceased storming, and cleared oil' very cold, the thermometer falling from about 11 above zero, where it had ramrod during the day, to zero, and slaudmg at midniizht at j- below. The snow on a level was not over four inches deep. The storm has extended in all directions, direc-tions, but seems to be a plains storm rather than from the mountains. Down ihe line of the Kausas Pacific it has been l'uriou. An eng ne and snow plow sent out by Col. Fisher, the energetic ener-getic superintendent, this morning, encountered en-countered drift fifteen leet deep between be-tween here and BuX Klder. and beyond fiotu lour to nine leet. I lie engine was to go through to Hugo last night, and will return k day. The IVnvcr Pacific is all light, as is ah-o the Union Pacific, aud trains are on lime on both roads. I lie storm, however, extended along I'oth tliw lines. The Colorado Central i a.i right; and also ail of the state dm s c.iiter.nc in this city.
