Fighting Equipment in Effort to
Keep Way Open for Trains.
SACRAMENTO. Jan. . (Special.)
No sooner had the Sacramento Valley
passed through one storm, that which
cleared up last night, than another one
broke late today over the whole region
from Sacramento to the Oregon line.
Weather Forecaster Taylor predicts
that the present rain will continue for
another 36 hours and that the rivers
of the Sacramento watershed will rise
rapidly, probably reaching dangerous
stages Monday. He advises all lowland
residents who have not already moved
their stock to high ground to do so at
once.
As during the last storm, the main
danger lies in the snow, which lies
loose over the Sierra Nevadas, the deep
est since the great snowfall of 1911.
Should the rain fall on the lower por
tion of that snow a flood of disastrous
proportions would follow. The Sacra
mento River rose 2.4 feet last night.
The Southern Pacific Is rushing every
bit of snow-fighting equipment Into the
Sierra Nevada Mountains, to keep the
unprotected portions of its lines clear
for the movement of trains. So far It
haa succeeded in doing so.
Portola, Truck ee and all mountain
points report a heavy fall of snow.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9 Six or the 11
former directors of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford Railroad, charged by
the Government with criminal violation
of the Sherman anti-trust law, were
found not guilty today by the jury that
for nearly three months has been try
ing the case. The Jury disagreed on
the five others.
Those acquitted were D. Newton Bar
ney, Farmington, Conn.: Robert W.
Taft, Providence, R. I.; James S. Hem
ingway. A. Heaton Robertson and
Frederick F. Brewster. New Haven, and
the Henry K. McHarg, Stamford, Conn.
Jury Is Out 51 Hours.
Those on whom the Jury disagreed
were William Rockefeller, New York;
Charles F. Brooker, Ansonia, Conn.:
Charles M. Pratt, Brooklyn; Lewis Cass
Ledyard, New York, and Edward D.
Robbins. New Haven.
The verdict was returned at 4:30
o'clock, after 61 hours of deliberation,
and the Jury was discharged. The'
final vote on the five defendants on
which the Jurors could not agree stood
eight to four for acquittal.
R. L. Batts, chief counsel for the
Government, announced that he would
move for a new trial of these Ave.
This will be done, he said, before any
effort is made to try the six other for
mer directors of the road who were
indicted, but who obtained the right to
be tried separately.
Deadlock Once Reported.
The Jurors did not report their ver
dict until after they had reported to
Judge Hunt early in the day that they
could not agree. Up to that time
noon they had been deliberating with
a view to bringing in a verdict on the
guilt or Innocence of the defendants
collectively. The court then instructed
them to make further effort to concur,
and that If they could not agree on
all to try and reach a decision on some.
The vote of the question of all at
that time stood eight to four for ac
quittal, it was learned.
On returning to the jury-room the
Jurors renewed their discussion with
the court's instructions in mind, and
unanimously eliminated the six de
fendants that were . excused. Two of
the four jurors who had voted against
the defendants originally stood Arm,
however, against Messrs. Rockefeller,
Ledyard, Brooker. Pratt and Robbins.
Then the other two switched to their
original position, leaving eight to four
as the final vote.
William Rockefeller,, who is ill, and
Henry K. McHarg were not present
