The Swiss railways are virtually owned

The Swiss Government has become

NEW YORK, January 29.-The main
subject of interest among the theatrical
psople now is The grea. snow blockade on
the Central Pacific railroad.
The companies are snow bound in the
Sierra Nevada mountains and several tbes-
tres are closed on account of the failure OF
these companies to meet their dates.
The loss TO managers will amount TO
thousands of dollars, while 10 the players,
who are losing theic salaries while locked

been the longest sufferer by the blockade,
having already been snowbound in one
car o. Shady Ron, CAL, for IA days
Daring this time the company has lived
principally upon what is known as pack
ed fOod"-salt meat and fish prepared for
winter consumption at the smaller towns
along the railroad.
TIE Shenandoah company is still

worth, New. Al Haymsn telegraphed to

which ia very difficult 10 remove. The

Tue opening Of the new Markham Opera
