HEAVY LANDSLIDE ON GRADE.
Portion of the Mountain at Hitchcock's
Tunnel Tumbles to the Track.

Portion of the Mountain at Hitchcock
Tunnel Tumbles to the Track.
The Baltimore and Ohio is still hav-
ing lots of trouble in this section on
account of the recent high waters and
the soggy condition Of the ground.
Tuesday evening heavy landslide
took place at Hitchcock's tunnel,
about two miles east of Swanton on
the 17-mile grade. Repairs to the
tunnel have been going steadily on
for year or more and to loosen the
earth and rock considerable blasting
has been done by the workmen
When the warm weather of last week
came with the accompanying rain the
condition of the ground resulting
from the continuous jarring was such
that the steep hillside slipped down
onto the tracks. completely covering
both of them and delaying traffic for
several hours. The slip took place a
few minutes after train No. 10 passed
through the tunnel, and was not
cleared up until late yesterday morn
ing, the trackmen from this point as.
sisting in the work.
