DAMAGE BY SLIDES.
Slide at Shale Mountain Near Wyotli
Cost Company Dear.
General Manager J. P. O'Brien and
Chief Engineer Boechke, of the Harrl
man lines In this territory, will ut
tempt to solve the problem of the Shell
mountain landslides, which each year
costs the O. R. A- N. hundreds of thou
sands of dollars, and frequently par
alyzes both passenger and freight traf
fic, says the Telegram. The matter
will be taken up as soon as Mr.
O'Brien Joins Chief Engineer Boschke,
Division Superintendent Campbell and
Division Engineer Bollona, up the
line. Mr. O'Brien left here this
morning, and will make a thorough
Inspection of the whole line, together
with the branches and new extension
work, before he returns next week.
The "trouble mountain" near Wy
eth will come In for most serious at
tention 'on his present trip, and It Is
understood that the company has
reached the conclusion that nothing
but the expenditure of enormous sums
of money will ever dispose of the fre
quent blocking of the line by mud
slides similar to those which have laid
out the line during the past five days.
It Is conceded that if these slides
continue with the frequency htat have
been recurring of late, the whole, O
R. A N. track at that point will be
pushed out Into the Columbia river.
The present trip of Mr. O'Brien Is
likely to result in greatly renewed ac
tivity In construction work, both in
improvement of roadbed and track.
and the rebuilding of the line In places,
In order to put the road in Shape to
compete more effectively with the
North Bank road on the other side of
the river, the Hill line being in a po
sition to wrest the greatest bulk of
business from the Harrlman road In
the rich competitive territory
