RA1LRoADING IN THE SNow.-Mr. e.. F.
Clarksop, who returned to Des Moiues,
Iowa, on the goth instant, from California,
relates some Interesting incidents of the trip
over the mountains, which the RegiSter
thus enumerates Sc He left San Francisco
at O'Clock on Wednesday, March Is. The
telegraph had reported snow-storm in the
mountains, commencing on the 18th. Sup
posing the road would be opened by the
18th, Mr.. Clarkson started homeward. All
along the Sacramento Valley eVerythi pg was
smiling. The cattle were luxuriating 10 the
grass knee high, and the plains were decked
with flowers. At O'Clock P. n. the train
mountains, and by 10 O'Clock reached Blue
Canon, from which to Truckee the snow was
from four 10 twelve feet deep, and in the
gulches it was in some places one hundred
feet deep. Those who have kept snow
gauges or the NeVadas report fall Of 1888
inches of snow 6sring the winter. Immense
snow ploughs, operated by locomotives and
hundreds of Chinese, bsd opened the roads
over the Nevsdas, and the train was on time
until it reached the town OF Wells, on the
Humboldt mountains. There they overlook
the trains which had left San Francisco
for the four days previously. The road
from Wells TO Toano (thirty-six miles, was
still blockaded, no trains having passed
over that section for four days. The snow
was any depth from four to fifteen feet. As
the wind was still blowing, to open the
track with shovels was as futile rs dipping
the ocean dry with spoon. Seventeen LEGO
motives were assembled at the western cad
of the blockade, eight of which were put be-
hind an immense snow plough. The five
passeng ger trains were massed into three, and,
thus arranged, charge was made on the OBJ.
struction. AS such power was hard to resist,
in three hours the snow.plough was pushed
through to Toano, snd the caravan OIL
trains reached Ogden only three hours
Behind time. But the successful trial
demonstrates that trains can be pushed
through any blockade ever likely to impede
any road. The change coming down the
mountains was as great as going up them. ln
the valley of Salt Lake farmers were plough.
ing, and the atmosphere mild. Starting out
again in few hours, the deep SHOWS were
encountered on the Wasateh range 30 deep
that at some of the villages the comb Of the
roofs of some of the houses could eIly be
seen. But there was Nc obstruction; yet
the cars crowding along between snow. ban ks
as high as The roofs was interesting to the
passengers. On Saturday the 18th the traie
encountered severe snoW-sterm on the
Rocky mountains at Sherman, lasting until
midnight Of Sunday. Sometimes there was
danger of the train being blown from the
track"
