GREAT SALT LAKE
WATERS LOSING SAVIOR
Railroad Men Say Lueen Cutoff Has
Something to Do With IL

SALT LAKE CITY-Are the waters
of the great Salt Lake becoming fresh
ened through the construction OF the
great Ogden-Lucen cutoff of the South
ern Pacific?
Engineers of the railroads are much
puzzled over the matter. It is declared
that the waters north Of the cutoff,
which in time beyond the memory Of
man have been bitterest brine, are
gradually becoming sweetened. Ex-
perts are unable to account for the
phenomenon.
The freak is the subject of much
discussion around Union Pacific head
quarters in Denver. So far none of the
local officials has been able to ex-
plain It.
One theory is that the Bear Spring
river, which flows into the great salt
sea near Ogden, is forcing the briny
water beyond the cutoff. This stream
is about three hundred feet wide and
is of the sweetest in Utah. 1t pours
an immense volume Of water into the
lake daily. 1t is argued that the en-
bankments and piles Of the cutoff
check the flow of the salt water Thus
the sweet water of the river flowing
into the northern end Of the lake is
kept sweet and pure.
1t is reported that the area of sweet
water is increasing every day. Some
Of the oldest Inhabitants" are shaking
their heads dolefully and predicting
that the salt sea, once the greatest at
traction of Mormondom, is doomed by
the works of man.
