 Not so with the new electric loco motives. the most powerful engines in the world At 2 o'clock in the morning of March 1st last an avalanche car ried three of the new electric loco motives on the Great Northern railroad into a deep canyon near the Cascade tunnel. For fifteen days nothing was done to recover these, locomotives and they lay buried out of sight in the snow and ice. By the 21st actual prep aration for raising was commenced and by the 1st of April they were all back on the track and except for minor repairs and a thorough drying were ready to resume their old runs at shut ting trains back and forth through the Cascade tunnel.
 Two steam locomotives were also caught in this mighty avalanche of ice, snow and earth and were hurled down into the narrow canyon to almost com plete destruction. They had to be sent back to the factory and completely re- built
 The three electric locomotives were hauled up the side of the canyon by steel cables, dragged over the frozen ground and when placed on their truck on the rails looked little the worse for their unusual venture
 The repairs necessary for each loco motive were slight. and S100 per loco motive easily replaced all the dam aged electric equipment. The loco motives are made entirely of steel and did not suffer much from the rough handling or from being buried so long in the snow. By May 9th the transmits sion work was repaired and the loco motives were back at their old task Butte Evening News
