laden and will melt with a rush
that will cause the turbulent Red

foundations allalong the line that
will be a serious menace to prop

danger life.
Traffic on the Great Northern

rupted by the storm, but the
Northern Pacific trains went

the storm was not as severe as

the fall OF snow was not as heavy
