An inspection was made by the
chief Short Line officials last week,
with the view of authorizing the
proposed undertaking of raising the
trestle and grade to keep out of the
ever rising waters of the lake. With
the water of the great lake now top
ping last year's highwater mark and
certain to go much higher, and with,
the record for the last five years
showing an annual increase of twen
ty-nine Inches in the lake, the South
ern Pacific company is facing the
necessity of keeping its track above
the danger point. The work will in
clude a raising of the grade on the
western shore for five miles and a
raising of the trestle an equal dis
tance from the western shore into
the lake. At present It Is figured the
cost will be in the neighborhood of
$1,000,001), while five years from
now, when the waters of the lake
have reached the tracks, it will cost
five times as much, according to
prominent engineers of the South
ern Pacific company.
“The Western Pacific will be open
for through traffic Just as soon as
possible, probably May 1 of this

Lake by Charles H. Schlacks, first

Pacific and the gathering of the
many Gould officers in Salt Lake,
Mr. Schlacks said that the new road
was being put in shape as fast as the
weather will permit and that with
the opening up of spring a large
force of men would be put to work
ballasting the road to make It ready
for passenger traffic, which he said
would most likely be established be
fore May 1. He said that no new ap

Naughton Held

OGDEN, .Ian 27.--Under verdict
given out toda> from the* coroner s
jury, holding Head Hrakeman Wm.
Naughton responsible for the wreck
and deaths attendant at Leinay,
Naughton was placed under arrest
this afternoon. The warrant charg
ed criminal negligence. Naughton
was the man at the switch through
which the passenger train hurled it
self into the freight.
Since the morning of the terrible
accident Naughton has remained in
Ogden awaiting whatever decision
■ the coroner’s jury arrived at. The*
fact that he made no effort to leave
the city will probably be much in his
favor when the case is called for
trial. It is stated that when he was
asked whether he would leave Ogden
or not. after being dismissed from
service by the Southern Pacific com
pany he remarked that he would
“stay and take his medicine.”

That Number Added Last Near to
Itoads of the Kmplre Country.
With the first month of the new
year, 165,000 railroad employes
have been added to the 500,000 in
this country to whom pension plans
already apply. This large increase
is due to the action of the New York
Central and Rock Island lines, which
have announced the installation of
pension departments.
The latest government report on
the number of railroad employes puts
the total for the country at 1,672,
074. Of these approximately 665,
000, or about 40 per cent, serve the
roads which have pension systems.
Companies that now bestow pensions
on employes are the New York Cen
tral, the Rock Island, the Pennsyl
vania, the Buffalo, Rochester *
Pittsburg, the Chicago & Northwest
ern, the Illinois Central, the Santa
Fe. the Union Pacific, the Southern
Pacific and its affiliated lines, the
Lackawanna, and the Baltimore &
Ohio, the Atlantic Coast Line, the
Reading and Jersey Central.
Under the plan of the railroads,
the service of a man who is to re
ceive a pension must be continuous.
There are, however, certain excep
tions to this. When an employe is
disabled for instance, or receives a
leave of absence or is suspended for
discipline, or is temporarily laid off
on account of a reduction in force,
this is not considered a break in the
continuity of service. Only by vol
untarily leaving the company or by
being discharged for good cause does
an employe disqualify himself for a
pension. One of the most imporant
results of the pension policy is that
it encourages long service and there
by increases efficiency.

('iiiHMUt Has Four Feet With No
Hanging Wall Vet in Sight.
Developments yesterday at the
property of the Kly Centennial indi
cate that the best hopes of the man
agement are likely to lie soon ful
filled by reason of the strike that
was recently made In starting a cross
cut northeasterly from the 55 foot
level in the incline shaft.
At the point named, ore was open
ed Monday after two rounds of
shots in starting (he crosscut, which
has assayed from 5 to Id per
cent copper, with mnall values in
gold, silver and lead. The force de
voted its work on Tuesday and Wed
nesday to cutting a station and yes
terday work was resumed on the
crosscut.
A round of blasts at noon exposed
four feet of ore in the crosscut with
no sign of the hanging wall. Sam
ples of the ore taken from the face
yesterday will easily run 20 per cent
copper, with small values In gold,
silver and lead. Assay returns will
be obtained today.
Comet is a New
One-Yet to be
Classified
The comet which has been ob
served in thp western heavens the
last several nights, din. which ap
pears to grow brighter each night,
is now declared by astronomers not
to be Halley's comet, but a new one
which has not as yet been placed.
Interested crowds have viewed the
comet locally each night since its ap
pearance Sunday evening. Last
night it came in view about seven
o'clock and the flare of its tail was
brilliant above the western horizon
until after 8 o'clock. Its appearance
Sunday evening, when flrnt observed,
was at about fi o'clock and it had
dropped from view before 7. The
first scientific statement given out
concerning the comet in a nearby
quarter eomea from Professor Pack
of the University of Utah, who is
quoted as follows:
“The roimet which has been so
plainly visible a few degrees above
the western horizon has tentatively
been railed ‘Comet A—1910.’ With
in a very short time its identifica
tion will be completed, but just at
present it has not definitely been
placed. It has existed in nearly its
i present position for several days
Ipast, and will continue several days
to come.
"It can best be observed trom tne
oast or north. It Is not Halley s
comet, which is scheduled to appear
early in April. So far as we have
learned, comets appear to be com
posed of swarms of meteors. The
greater part of the light which they
emit is reflected light and the nearer
they approach to the sun the more
golden the light they emit.
“Comets appear to revolve around
the sun in very much the same man
ner as do the planets, except that
their orbits are much more eccentric
They even approach to within short
distances of the sun and then recede
to remote positions. Most of them
have been observed and reported at
regular intervals.

of the comets from the earth, even
