WORK IS MOVING
SOUTH Of NENANA

. Steel is being laid toward the Ne
mana coal fields as rapidly as wealth
er conditions will permit and the
end of the track is now within about
three miles of Camp . 60 Mile) .
Thirteen hundred feet of trest,e is
erquired to carry the track across
Lost slough and the Engineering
force at Residency ,, under super
vision of Resident Engineer Ike F.
Taylor, are busilv engaged in driv
ing the necessary piling for this pur-
pose. Owing to the glacier that
has recently formed here, this work
is somewhat retarded. To &C
! complish the necessary filling and
surfacing on the grade on which
steel is laid, large brush fires are
built at night and the ground thawed
sufficiently to enable the force to get
! the gravel.
1t is predicted that trains will run
through to Residency 8 (35 Mile)
by Christmas, and, as the grade be-
yond this station is practically COM
pleted, it will be but short time
before train service will be estab-
! lished through to Nenana Crossing,
at 43 Mile, where the first big bridge
on the main line will carry the iron
trail across the Nenana river.
The Nenana river at 20 Mile
/ (Lost Slough is again giving the
Engineering force considerable trou-
BILE. At the point on the right of
way where piles are now being driv-
en- to carry the rails across what was
once Lost slough, but is now the
main river, the water seems to have
flowed away, leaving space between
the top of the ice and the river bed,

point assears to have been forced
up by the pressure of the wate.,
which flowed c, top Of the ice, bad
ly elaeiering the country surround

Of the piledriver.
The wagon road which crosses the
slough just below the ferry was thus
rendered impossible for freight
teams; sections of the road between
Camp 9 go Mile) and Residency 3
(35 Mile) were also glaciered, but
no great difficulty was experienced
by the freight teams. In the i'm
mediate neighborhood of the pile
driver the glacier had reached to the
top of the grade, but as the water
gives indications of falling off, it is
not thought that the roadbed will
be glaciered to any great extent.
On Wednesday it was considered
unsafe for teams on the ice and
freight traffic accordinly was sus-
pended for that day. But during
the night the mercury dropped,
rendering the ice firm enough so
that traffic was resumed the follow
ing day. ...= ".. 49,.
About a foot and half of ice
has to be cut away to enable the
men to put the caps on the piling
across Lost slough.
