The STORM AGAIN-Y Yesterday morning
was ushered in with rain, which continued
all day and night. At P. NJ. "A of an inch
had fallen, according to the Signal Service
report, and almost that much more descended
by midnight. The rain extended all over
the valleys, raining as far up in the noun
tains as Alta, where there was previously a
foot or two Of snow on the ground. This will
have tendency to again raise the American
and Sacramento rivers which were falling
Yesterday. At II o'clock Sunday night the
Sacramento marked 81 feet and inches,
and last night at the same hour it had fallen
three inches The levees down the river
are reported as being entirely safe,
while those up the river above Knights Land
ing, Colusa county, are broken IN many
places and allow much surplus water to es
cape into the tule basins. On the mountains
at noon the furious storm of a few days since
was renewed with increased vigor, and if it
lasts as long as then, will sorely try the pow
ers of the railroad forces, blocked up and al
most buried as the track already is for N any
miles. with the sheds packed half full of
snow and the roofs almost crushing in with it,
Beyond Alta it is showing, blowing and
drifting. Superintendent Pratt and Master
Mechanic Cooley returned to the place of con-
Hict yesterday to conduct the battle with
the elements They left Cisco early last
night to go to Summit, 10 miles away, but at
miinight no intelligence of them had been
received. Two freight trains between the
two stations had not been heard from in the
six hours preceding midnight, and are sup
posed to be showed in. From present indica-
tions no trains will arrive from the East to.
