den halt In Its work of clearing ths
main line near Telocassot a task
vainly kept up for miuiy hours.
A break necessitating considerable
time In repairs resulted. To hold
the advauage already won In the
war with the wind and snow and to
get the trains through, two light en
glmes tackled the drifts of eight feet
In depth with vigor, and one pas
senger train was able to pass the
drift about 3 o'clock this morning.
Elgir traitr derailed.
For the first time In the history
of the Joseph line, a complete tleup
has resulted. Last evening the trains
transferred at a point two miles east
of Elgin. This morning two engines
and a mail car broke through the
drift, reaching Elgin, but the other
cars were derailed, and this: morning
it was announced that, the track will
be cleared by 12:30 this afternoon.
Ad it Is Impossible to transfer, .traffic
was of .course stalled until the
coaches were righted again.
It Is in the cut at the Galloway
place that all the trouble haa taken
place. The snow troubles are all
practically over, unless, another hard
wliU sets to, and as soon as the cars
are recalled, traffic will likely be
resumed on the branch.
