laid, and the workmeu were sent north
ward to clear away other slides and
move the track where the washouts
occurred. The ditched engine of the
work train is blocked up, and engines
were sent to pull it on the track. A
score of washouts must then be repaired,
Everything is being done that unlimited
forces and ample material can ac
complish. The Oregon express leaving
