LINE WILL BE OPEN TO II AT
 EARLY DATE
Necessity of Early Work on Turnagain Arm is
 the Cause.

Plans to open the line from Seward to Mile Fl at the earliest possible time this season, are to be carired out soon.
 The rotary snow pow is to be sent over the hill to Mile 40 at an early date and will cut through the drifts as far as the snowslide at Mile 53, which is to be removed by sluicing
 Until recently it was considered risky to send the big blow over some of the weaker trestles but the need for immediate action along Turnagain arm resulted in the engineers Tgul~ ing out a plan by which it can be taken out.
 The machine will be frightened as much as possible and hitched to the end of a train, thus distributing the weight. Once at Mile 40 it can be hitched up with all the available To- comotives behind it and sent into the drifts as far as the long trestle. ohjs trestle is on a grade and the ptow will drift across it and beyond that the power can be put behind it again.
