RECORD SNOW TIEUP'
Northern Pacific Trains Block
AIDED For Four Days.
WAS EIGHTEEN FEET DEEP IN CUTS
Six Transcontineltal Trains Start
Together, being the First From
Pacific Coast For Nearly
Ninety Hours.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, March 29.-The
Northern Pacific expects soon to reach
st. Paul with the first of the delayed
transcontinental trains. These will be
the first trains from Portland, Ore, for
four days.
The blockade, which has existed for
four days in North Dakota and Mon
tana, was lifted early when u message
saying that the line had been cleared
was received in st. Paul. Subsequent
ly other messages were received from
points along the line in the storm dis
trict saying that trains would be start
ed.
This closes one of the most remarka-
bic snow blockades of recent years.
Coming at the close of March, when
other portions of the country are well
advanced toward spring, the Northern
Pacific, Great Northern and 500 lines
were tied up as tightly rs they could
have been in January. One remark
able feature of the blockade was that
a comparatively meager amount of
snow caused the trouble. But, as a
railway official said, this snow for fifty
, miles around searched out the railroad
cuts and refused to go farther. AS Il
result, the cuts were in some cases
filled to "a depth of eighteen feet, while
the surrounding country in spots would
be almost bare.
Six transcontinental trains, which
had been blocked in the snow district,
were ready to start at sunup. These
trains being only partially flied were
consolidated into three trains, the first
of which is due about midnight. the
others an hour or two later. These
are the first trains to arrive from the
Pacific coast since last Friday morn
ing, leaving an interval OF nearly nine
ty hours between trains.

Thomas A. Edison continues to
spend a large part of his time per-
fecting the storage battery upon which
he has been working for several years.
The delegates to the international
electrical congress who paid a visit
to Mr.. Edison in New Jersey last week
found him very optimistic as to the
future of this battery. When it was
first developed 1t had the usual me-
chanical defects of a new invention
and Mr.. Edison has been spending
much time in his factory overcom-
ing these defects. The engineers who
saw him last week say that the Edi-
son storage battery is now perfected
and that 1t will not be long before it
is put on the market.
-Salo Cohn. known throughout
Austria for his beneficence in feeding
the homeless poor through the me-
dunn of the peoples kitchens in VII
emma, is now visiting this country. MIR.
Cohn, one of the most prominent of
Austrian financiers, retired to devote
himself to charitable and sociological
enterprises and became interested in
the first peoples kitchen in Vienna.
1t is owing to his zeal no less than
his liberal contributions that the en-
terprise has been such remarkable
success. Mr.. Cohn is one of the most
remarkable types of Austrian self
made men. At the time of his retire
ment from business a dozen years ago
he was one of the most trusted and
influential members of the Vienna
Stock Exchange.
