Storm Reports.

O'Clock this morning heavy rain-storm

merged. The situation was the same in
the southern portion of the city, where the
| cellars were filled with water and sand
| The Market Street Gable Company were un-
able to get further than the foot of Haght
| street, Oh account of the cable road-bed be
ing blocked with sand. The McAllister

from the hills, Oyertiowing the sidewalks.
The sewers were generally choked with
sand

The Southern Pacific.
HEwHALL, April ilth-A careful survey
II ,ly r
affairs than was at first supposed LII the |
Pico canyon the water rushed down in !
torrents, carrying down logs, trees and |
rocks weighing tons, which, coming in con
tact with the Oil companys pipe lines, I
broke them in several places. Driftwood |
was deposited down along the canyon suf-
tcient to last the wells for year All the |
roads leading to the different wells were
greatly damaged. At the San Fernando |
tunnel the waters from the adjoining hills |
rushed madly down from every direc-
ton, and uniting swept the dirt
from under the railroad track in
an instant. Down the valley towards Ven
tura the rainfall has been considerable.
The stages have not been able to cross the
Sespe, and no mails are expected from that
direction before Monday next. TheStreams
carried away fences and tore up the road
worse than ever. The rains have made the |
stage road between here and Santa Bar
bara longer by miles or more. The rail
road has been repaired north of Los An I
geles as far as San Fernando and by
tomorrow noon the road will be re
paired this far. Work has been pushed !
from Ravenua down this way,
though nothing has been done
to-day between here and Lanss, where the
greatest damage has been done by the
SOledad canyon, Tomorrow a good force
Of men, under Mc,rabbe, will commence
repairing tins section, with large forces at
every point. It is more than probable that
the entire road viii be open for travel by
Tuesday next. We have had no rain since
yesterday morning, though the sky has
been heavily overcast and rain may be ex-
pected at any moment. Three and q half
inches OF rain have fallen since the begin
ming Of the present storm, and thirty-seven
for the season.
