The recent storm in the Sierra Nevada
mountains was the severest ever known in
that region, especially at SO late q date in
the season. Hundreds Of feet Of snowsheds
have succumbed, and the railroad track is
obstructed with slides. All the trains are
hung up at various points on either side
OF the snow line. At latest accounts the
East-bound train due at Palisade yesterday
afternoon, was switched Alfalfa, near Dutch
Flat. When the road will be cleared of
distractions cannot be predicted with any
degree Of certainty. But the Central Pa
cifc always has an immense reserve force
within convenient distance for emergencies
like the present, and is capable Of perform
ing wonders in q remarkably short time.
1t is barely possible that all Of the trains
will get to moving on time again to-day,
though such an event should not be ex-
pected too confidently. No mail was re-
ceived from the west last night.
