A CALIFORNIA SAND-sToRM-Thc Fierce Breath
tf the Cojon Pass Stops q Train for Fifteen Hours
Day before yesterday afternoon the outgoing
Yuma train left Los Angeles on time. Every
thing went On as usual until it approached
Cucamonga station. At this point sand storm
Of extraordinary violence was encountered The
train was soon obliged to stop. Superintendent
Hewitt was at once communicated with bY TEL
egraph and number OF men were dispatched
frcm all quarters TO clear the track. but utterly
without avail. The train was delayed some if
teen hours. When We state that the rails for
distance Of three or four miles were covered
with sand to depths ranging from one 10 three
feet, the force OF the wind may be conjectured
The S;moon, or SlrCccO, or whatever it may b.
called, came whiStling through the Cajon Pass
as though Ii were discharged from funnel. The
incoming Yuma train was delayed for an hour
and a half through the storm. Some seven years
ago a Whirlw1nd poured out Of the Cajon Pass
which took substantially the same course as the
wind day before yesterday. The line OF plain
trayersed by it was about three miles wide, but
it fortunately stopped right at the edge OF the
celebrated Cucamonga vineyard. For much OF
this width the soil was shaved off as with a
knife, being carried resiStleSsly over the Cuca-
monga plains. Sand was piled to a height of
several feet over the roof Of the station Of the
old stage company, making total sand drift OF
over twenty feet high. The storm OF the other
day must have been twin brother of that

REPORT OF THE GOVERNMENT DihEt
The report of the government directors OF the
Union Pacific railroad, MesSrs. c. F. Adams
ir Daniel Chadwick, Geo. b. Smyth, Ralph P.
Buckland ard Chas. C. Housel, has been re-
ceived at the Interior department. The dlrec-
tors consider that the financial relations Of the
government ard the Union Pacific have been
definitely settled by recent Congressional rs
laiiCn and require no attention from them: and
also that as through the newly created a,llfO
OF railroad accounts, the government is in no
session OF the facts respecting the condition OF
tie COmpaDy'S finances, its resources and the
disposition made OF them. no further diSc,lSSi,,1
of these points is necessary. The attenti)n
OF the directors has been confined StIietlv tn
question OF the present They give the govern
ment such information as they have been able tn
procure relating to the existing condition of the
property and the policy now pursued by the di-
rect on IN the management of the c0lnpany's af-
IalIs. examination has led the directors to
beneVe that the policy now pursued by the com
pany in regard to the material condition of the
property, While careful and sufficiently safe. Is
Dy no means liberal. Tho percentage Of Onera
ting expenses to gross earnings is not Sufficient
ly large; 1.-THE policy OF the company in this

upon The relations OF the Union Pacific with
the public generally and with other railroad
ilneS which are divided into connecting comDet-
ing ana feeding roads are then discussed
IN conclusion, the subject Of the lands granted
10 me Union Pacific, which by the Dudymott
decision become the subject OF litigation are
CONSIDERED. The eXpediency OF legislation
affecting the grazing and waste lands west of q
point at or near North Platte, which would
avoid the mistake Of applying to them the laws
intended Tor arabic lands. is suggested. An eX.
change OF lands is recommended b. which the
government shall cede to the company all the
sections on one side CT the road. and receive
IRON it all On the other siGe. This plan would
enable the land TO be sold in the large tracts
cohtfoilng water front, necessary for cattle
ranges Under the system of alternate see
IionS, under which the land is now held, such
disposal is impossible
