The north and south bound trains scheduled to run today were both annuusd owing to the severe weatb- CT and the fact that huge drifts of snow had formed at several points between Glacier and White Pass.
 The rotary snow-plow was sent out anl with three of the largest engines is slowly cutting it's way through the snow which has been. blown in so as to be almost as hard as ice.
 The last advice received just before going to press was to the effect that the track would be clear Of snow by tonight. but it was not definitely known whether or not trains would be run tomorrow. It was thought, however, that weather permitting, trains both ways would be run.
