THE GREAT SNOW STORM.
Trains Stopped, and the Snow Block
ade is Worse than Was Ever
Known Before. D, ..u

Day after day reports are coming
in from the Sierra Nevada Mountains
of the terrific snow storm which has
completely buried the towns along
the Sierra range and shut off all sup
plies so they have to be carried at
great expense by snow shoe service.
Relief trains, with the circular plows
that will clear the track of snow, sey-
eral feet deep, and driven by four or
five large and powerful engines, have
been sent out carrying provisions to
the suffering people, but have failed
in their attempt and lodged in the
great snow banks. Twenty-Five huns
dred men have been employed to
combat with the elements and these,
too, have to be supplied with provi-
sions by means of the snow-shoes.
Along the line of the Central Pacific
the snow in some places is from $50
to 200 feet deep on top of the snow
sheds and in many places the trains
are entirely covered from sight. The
people are reported TO be actually suf-
fering for want Of proper food, and
the cold and the effect of their expe-
rience islikely to remain with some
of them as long as they live. In some
of the snow-bound cars fuel has given
out and the inmates not only suffer
from hunger but also cold. However,
let US hope that this terrible suffering
is about ended, as report from San
Francisco, dated on Wednesday, con,
tanned the following: "It now seems
probable that the great blockade or
the Sierras will soon be over. The
big rotary plow has been dug from
the snow in Cascade canon and has
done splendid work. The track i,
now clear as far as the plow can cleal
it. The snow it has been passing
through was nearly as hard as ice anC
averaged twenty feet. The railroad
officials state the only obstruction nov
is about foot of hard trampled snow
and ice which covers the rails for ;
considerable distance. This must b.
removed by picks and shovels. Tn
officials think the blockaded train
will reach here today. The train
have two weeks mail.

Cannon County Men in Trouble.

J. B. Hawkins, Chairman of the
Cannon county court, Alb Finley, a
lawyer of Woodbury., and VIM. Nc
Mahan, a would-be pensioner of Can
non county, have all been indicted
by thecriminal court at Nashville for
crookedness in procuring pension
money from the State. The Nash

following brief history of case:
"Some few months ago one VIM.
McMahan and J. B. Smith obtained
about 81 800 each ss back pay on
their pensions and began to draw $25
per month each. Judge Hawkins
came to Nashville in person and rep
resented to the State officers and to
Capt. Pickard that these pensions
were correct. He and Finley certi>
fled to them and money was secured.
Subsequently the state comptroller,
J. w. Allen, discovered evidences of
fraud, stopped the monthly pay
ilments and instituted g civil suit for
recovery against the parties. At
