SNOWSLIDES DINDER
G TRAINS
GREAT NO'RTHERN'S LINE IS
BADLY TIED UP BY TROUBLE
IN CASCADES.
Seattle, Jan. 3.--Snowslides in the
mountains resulting from yesterday's
rains and warm weather interfered
with train operations again today and
tied up the Great Northern's trans
continental line to such an extent that
overland trains are being handled be
tween Seattle and Spokane over the
Northern Pacific tracks.
The Chicago, 31il altukee & St. Paul
and the Northern P'acific are getting
their trains through witihout delay,
but at Great Northern hieadquait rters it
was said that line \ittiuhl probably lie
tied up for at least three days. Great
Northern trains sent out today and
stalled on the west slope of the Cas
cades were ordered back to Seattle,
while those held east of tihe Cascade
tunnel were turned back to Leaven
worth.
Great Northern tel-egraph lines
through the mountains are down, and
the extent of the slides is not known.
At Northern Pacific offices it was
sail colder weather had seit in on the
mountains and the danllgerous thaw
which was flooding the streams and
causing slides hatd Ihle)n stopped, No
serious flood troublle has been expe
rienced by any of lith,. railroads.
Rivers are all lank full, but have
not spread over the lotlatns exceplt in
a few scattered places.
Three feet of snow fell in the moun
tains today, and it was still snowing
at the summit tnonight, bout the rail
road men were less coi-nce-rned than
they were during last night's thaw.
A report received at Great Northern
headquarters late tonight said a 300
foot section of old wooden snowsheds
near the west portal of the Cascade
tunnel were demolished by an ava
lanche late today. No trains were in
the mountains and no one was hurt,
but the line will be tied up for several
days while the wreikage is being
cleared away. Thl new ennerlte snow
sheds huilt by the tGreat Northern
after the dlisastrous snwivslidels three
years ago withstood tloday's slides un
damaged. Extra gangs of laborers
were sent to the mollOiuntains tonight.
