Passenger Train Lost On Northwestern Line Near Madison
A passenger train on the Northwestern road near Madison is overdue by 30 hours after a fierce blizzard cut telegraph and telephone service. Wires down hinder communication and it is feared the train is buried in snow drifts west of Madison. Some trains were abandoned and many were late as the storm raged across the state. Conditions were returning to normal, but the outage slowed operations.
