Union Pacific Trains are Now Run
ming Through to Portland.
General Passenger Agent Teasdale, of the
Omaha, yesterday received the following
telegram from General Passenger Agent
Lomax, of the Union Pacific:
This morning we are in receipt of advices
from F. II. Goodman. of the Southern Pa
cific, that the snow blockade on that line
between Ogden and San Francisco has posi-
lively been raised and that trains will at
once resume their regular runs. Mr. Good
man is Of opinion that they will experience
no further difficulty on account of snow
unless they have another storm, which is
unlikely. The Shasta route, however, is
still blocked and it may take some days to
have this line cleared. Please recollect,
however, that the Southern Pacific runs a
line of steamers between Portland and San
Francisco. Will you please issue bulletins
to your agents giving them this information
and ask them to resume the sale of tickets
to California points, via either the Oregon
Short Line or Ogden and the Southern Pa
cific. Also please give this information to
YOU, connecting lines and advertise it az
much as possible.

Another Terrible Railroad Accident.
The fast express on the Air Line division
of the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago
railroad was wrecked at the trestle over VIII
sons creek, 16 miles north of Indianapolis.
Seven persons lost their lives and over 20
were injured, several of the latter fatally.
Good time was being made when the truck of
the tender jumped the track just as the trestle
was reached. In this condition it was dragged
over TIL trestle, which was SAFELY cleared by
the engine, baggage car and smoker the
ladies day coach and the sleeper making up
the rest of the train. The pulling of the trucks
across the trestle is supposed to have loosen
ed the rails, and when the ladies' coach
reached the center the structure gave way
and it fell with crash to the creek below, q
distance of 40 feet. The sleeper followed and
and completed the destruction of the ladies'
car by falling upon it. It then rolled to one
side. Almost simultaneously with the falling
of the first coach it took fire and added the
terror of the flames to tile awful con-
dition of the women, children and
men who had beeen caught and
wedged in the wreck. AfSer clearing the
trestle the baggage car and smoker also left
the track and rolled down the embankment.
Every thing was in the greatest confusion
and the cries OF the persons pinioned in the
burning wreck OF the day ear seemed to
parable those who had escaped without in
jury. 1t was several minutes before any as
sistance was attempted, and then twas too
late to be effective, as the flames enveloped
the entire car, and many of the voices that
cried in pitious tones for help were already
sileneed by the dey0nping flames.

One of the most outrageous and
bold assaults upon a lady ever occurring il
Burlington happened in the business por.
ton of ahe city to-day while the streets
were thronged with pedestrians. Miss shu,
man, young lady, was returning from an
errand to her home, and had passed into a
side street, when a man stepped up behind
her, graspcd her around the waist with one
arm and, whipping out an ugly looking
butcher knife, quickly relieved the young
lady of mass Of golden tresses that was
hanging loose down her back. So quick
was the action OF the hair thief that she had
not time enough to scream or struggle and
in less time than it takes to relate it the
deed was done and the man had disap-
peared. Miss Shuman is handsome young
lady and somewhat of an athlete in he1
way, but she was so amazed and paralyzed
at the boldness of the deed that she could
do nothing. She is quite overcome by ths
circumstances. No clue to the thief
