Snow Blockade
A snow blockade has prevailed for two days and will not be lifted until Monday. The Soo road suspended all trains Thursday and the South Shore did the same Friday. No mail has arrived since Thursday and the Soo is again experiencing a seige of its former days of exclusiveness, what it was some time shurt [* shut] off for weeks. It is said that the crews were in the snow on the Algoma branch of the CPR Friday.
