distance Of sixty-One miles
at present the st. George mail is no

ninety-five miles and requires a number
of team changes in order to deliver tho

hours. Via Modena a saving of thirty
four miles is made, only one relay poi1t
for horses required and the mail deliver
ed in St George in sixteen hours. The

Oregon Short Line, were IN Ogden yes
terday looking over the local yard Work
on the remodeling of the yards was COM
menced in earnest yesterday. when sew
eral additional forces were put to work
preparing for combining the Southern Pa
cific and Union Pacific yards. The ne
cessity for rushing this work TO compile
ton was most forcibly presented to the
management of the Hartman lines du-
ring the past season. when the amount
of business handled was greater than du-
ring any former season. For a great por-
ton of the time during the winter the
local yards have been so congested as TO
involve serious delays to both loaded and
empty cars The work of building the
new Yards will be prosecuted vigorously
from this time on and should be COM
pleted before the summer is over.

FLOOD DANGER
IS now PAST
Waters Receding and Many
May Return to Their Homes
by This Evening.

Inc flood waters of the Ogden river
which carried destruction i'm it's path and
threatened to wash away hundreds Of
homes in the river bottoms during the
past thirty-six hours, commenced to re-
cede early yesterday morning and it is
now claimed that the worst of the dan
ger has been passed. Scores of men were
sent to work in Ogden valley and else
where yesterday to begin the work of
repairing the damage done by the flood
The residents of Ogden valley commenced
as early as Tuesday night to replace the
bridges washed away in that section. in
order to restore communication with the
rest of the world. If the waters con-
tlnue TO recede as rapidly today as yes
Ierday, many of the persons who were
forced from their homes on Tuesday will
be able to return by evening.
The damage to Ogden canyon is I'M
usually heavy. 1t will be many months
and will require an expenditure of many
thousands of dollars before the canyon
can be placed in the condition it was
before the flood. All of the bridges in
property damage was great. The can
yOn road. which was the pride of the
county, was damaged extensively. The
damage at the entrance to the canyon,
near the Ogden sanitarium is greater
than was at first supposed. The river
in changing its course back to the old

greatly at that point. 1t will he weeks
before the water will recede enough to
permit the work of turning il back TO
where it was before the flood. The abut-
ment at the west end of the large steel
bridge at the sanitarium has been washed
away and the end Of the structure is
down in the water. This can be swung
back into place when a new abutment
is built. thus reducing the damage to
about $1,000. The leaving of the regular
river channel free from water left many
fish high and dry. An effort is being
made to save the trout that have been
left in small pools here and there by
transferring them with the aid OF nets
into the river proper. As yet no one has
volunteered an estimate of the amount
of damage done by the flood.
