the terrible confusion which the avalanche
caused. stones. trees and snow mingled in
one motley mass. Superintendent Riton
stopped the train as We came through and
had Some photographs taken These, Of

but there are one or two things that the
pictures could not very well show.
For instance. saw an immense log
lodged in a tree fully iee feet from the
ground I asked how 1t came there and
was told that it was sent there by dyna-
mile blast from the ground.
AS TO the work here. We expect first to

Then the reporter drifted down to the
water front In company with the engineer
and looked at the tracks where some forty
dirt cars are running in and out from In
terbay. bringing the material with which
the right-ofway is being filled in along
Railroad avenue. A noteworthy feature
of the work yesterday was the arrival of
four car loads of stone which Foreman

water front of the I'll on Railroad avenue
to project il against the encroachment of
the tides and waves from the bay.
Mr.. Mason expressed himself as highly
pleased with Seattle commenting favor
ably on the fine buildings in the city and
the new brick pavements. which he
praised very highly.
