Through great underground fissures, rent by earthquake hock, the waters of the Gulf of Cali fornia are pouring into the old Saltan sea to sea level Doubt no longer exists at to the origin of this vast inland sea, which now skirts the main line of the Southern Pac'fic for nearly one hundred miles and stretches away on either side of the track twenty five mile to the foothill. Attempt to (tern the tide have ceased after ten monthsof Dersistent effort bv the railway and the expenditure of up- waro or 1 00,000. Six weeks ago an expensive engineer ing feat shut off the water of the Colo rado river, which were flowing into the basin and which were supposed to be supplying the waste of tossing waves which were slowly but surely reclaiming the desert and threatening the destruc tion or trie railway right of way and a score of settlement. But the salt flood continued to rise at Ul rU nf k.tf 1 1. - J - vi iwn u 1111,11 b aay. inree spur tracks, built bv the Southern Pacific are now under water. A fourth is being built and even before it can be Dlaced in commission waves will wash, it rails. bouthern Pacific engineer now admit forth first time that this stran? tide cannot be stemmed by the hand of man. With fifty miles of their main line already under water, and with spur track mail ing away before the waves almost before the steel it spiked to the ties, they have retreated to the mountains and are sur veying for a new route which shall be well beyond the reach of the destructive element. Fourteen earthquake shocks last May and June, the first and the last three of considerable violence, are now admitted to have occurred. These shock are supposed to have opened subterranean fissures not far from the divide between the old Salton basin and the shores of the Qulf of California. Thi divide i some forty miles in -width. of rock of volcanic nature. Ooinion as to the causa of tha nam was divided between the earthquakT theory and overflow from the Colorado! and the latter. . was accepted as more reasonable, especially as investigation showed where several streams formed by seepagft from the Imperial near Yuma were pouring volume of water into the desert But this flow has for six weeks been stopped and the waters continue to rise. , Today every .building at Salton. with the exception of the depot is surronnded by water, and most of them are parti ally submerged. liana nt man IrA I rr ur a i n f in water, as they have worked since spring, 10 aeep me line open ror slowly passing trains. .
