Another Avalanche in Tacoma.
Tacoma Globe. Nov. g.

TACOMA UIObe, NOV. 3.
There WAS another avalanche of mud and
gravel fell at an early hour yesterday morning
from the top of the bluf just west of the gate
that enters the railroad yard on North Pacific
avenue. As was the case with previous slides,
this was caused by the heavy rains OF the past
two days 1t is more than ever apparent that
some measures must BE- taken to prevent these
great slides, or within few years there will be
danger of the buildings on the east side of Cliff
avenue being swept away. A large gang OF men
and several teams were engaged all day in
clearing passage for teams and hacks to the
railroad wharf 1t will be day or two yet be-
fore the cars can run through to their stand at
the baggage depot.
