An Unfounded Kumor,

The Reno Journal says there is no
foundation for the rumor that liquor
dealers are to be taxed 500 a month.
While this would cause increased
revenues and further the worthy
cause of temperance, the State law
makers, ii is said, are mostly of the
opinion that this would be playing
into the hands of a few saloon men
with good bank accounts, to the det-
riment and loss of those who make a
living for thems elves and families
out of the business.

The locomotive, mail a and buffet
car were totally wrecked, and one
sleeper was t~elescoped, and in the
latter we're the passengers who were
killed. The wreck was caused by the
high embankment giving way, the
melting snow in the mountains caus-

wreck yesterday, but regular traffic
on the road was delayed fifty hours.
The trestle across the break was COM
pleted this morning, and passenger
trains are now running.
A freight train was wrecked near
Wells yesterday, and numerous wash
outs are reported all along the line.
The extraordinary wet weather oil
the past ten days has put the roadbed

orders to proceed slowly and keep
a strict watch for breaks in the track.
Heavy rain and snow storms have
been falling here for the past twenty
four hours, and more washouts and
wrecks are probable.
