Epecfal Dispatch to The Call, TACOMA, Ja® 8—Four days of steady downpour of rain following heavy snows this State to be covered last night and to-day by the greatest bunch of land- slides apd snowslides known in North- western rallroading. There are hot only a few elides but geveral hundred of them. They cover the main line tracks of the Northern Paclfic and Great Northern together with fifteen brapch lines. The only piece of railvbad in Western ‘Washington wholly open to-day is the Northern Pacific’s forty-mile branch be tween Tacoma and Seattle. Between Kelso and Castle Rock on the Portland liné there are twenty-two eighten miles. Several passenger-trains being held at Castle Rock. day up the Cowiltz River to Castle Rock and take them back to the Columbia River, where they can board a regular steamer | for Portland to spend Sunday. Both the edst and the west bound overland trains on the Northern Pacific and Great North- ern had transferred {ts trains to the Northern Pacific tracks before the latter road was caught. Division superintendents and train masters are out with hundreds of men shoveling off the tracks. The main, lines will be epened by to-morrow, and prob- ably some of the branches. Numerous rivers are overflowing, in- cluding_ Cowiltz, _Chehalis, Puyallup, Stuck, Duwamish, Skymonish, Skagit and Nooksack. They are carrying down large quantities of logs and stumps, forming bad jams Ih many places against rallroad and country bridges. The Cowlitz River is only four feet below the high water mark of June, 1884, when the entire Co- lumbia River Valley was flooded. Many 108 booms have been carried away.
