JAMESTOWN, n. D., March 2S.-All
the available boats in jamestown were
sent this evening to Mckenzie, for use
in transferring the blockaded passengers
A gasoline launch with a capacity of
twenty-five persons, and several row
boats of different dimensions, were also
sent on.
The launch will be used to pull the
heavy RATS now being constructed to
haul the baggage, mail and passengers.
Owing to the. heavy winds the work of
transferring the passengers by means Of
the rowboats were abandoned. The lake
was rough, and the passengers in most
cases were afraid to make the venture.
One of the boats was capsized, and the
occupants treated to an icy bath.
There is some talk among the railroad
men here of cribbing up the two miles of
track that is under water, and this may
be done although it will be an expensive
piece of work.
Gen. Supt. Kimberly and Supt Wilson,
Of the Northern Pacific, are at McKen-
1ie with a large force of men who are
engaged in building RATS and getting
ready for the transfer of the mail and
baggage. The water at Mckenzie is
about two and one-half feet above the
tracks, and the average depth of the lake
in the vicinity of the TRACKS is about
ten feet,

General News of the
Railroads.

It was admitted yesterday at the office
of the railroad and warehouse commits
sion that a quiet investigation of the
books and records of the auditing depart
ments of the different roads having gen
eral offices here was being made.
Statistician Yapp has been examining
the records of some cf the roads, among
which is the Omaha, but he declines to
say anything in regard to the matter,
contenting himself with saying that he is
not at liberty to give out any information
on the subject.
1t is known that the records of the
Omaha have been examined, and presum-
ably have been found to be correct What
other roads will undergo the examination
and when it will be made, could not be
learned. However, the investigation Is
on in earnest but what the outcome will
be is an open question.
It may be that the commission has
some doubts as to the reliability of the
reports of the different roads in regard to
gross earnings and taxes, and 1t may
be- as has been intimated, simply a mat
ter of form to establish the right to go
ever the books and records should an
occasion arise that would warrant such
a proceeding.
