ExpLANNroRY.-Mr. Charles Lever
en.z, the brakesman at the Belchel
mine at the time Of tho fatal accident
which happened there day before yes.
terday morning, whereby n man
was killed and another badly mutt.
lated, called on US this morning de-
string to make a slight correction In
our account Of the matter, where we
state that he said the cage was down
Mt the point In the shaft where the
mon were. four or five minutes. This,
he says, referred to directly after the
accident when the cage was again
lowered to the 335-foot level. At the
time Of the accident the cage was only
at the point where the men were a
very short time, about half a minute,
long enough for them to hurry on,
when the bell rang to hoist, and he
complied, with the fatal result already
stated. He says the cage was perfect
" still before the signal was given,
and he started It up. He does not
propose to shield himself from any
blame properly belonging to him,
although he is not conscious Of being
wrong In this sad affair. When the
signals to lower, to stop, and then to
hoist the cage were given he promptly
complied, as was his plain duty, and
for his perfect reliability and careful
ness as a brakesman he refers to those
who have worked with him, and the
miners who have 80 often been holsted
and lowered by him.
THE New EUREKA MnL.-Excel-
lent progress is being made in the
work Of building this huge new mill Of
the Union Mill Company, on Carson
river. 1t is building OH the sight Of
the old Eureka mill, but will be ten
times as "eureka" as the old mill-ir
fact, will be the biggest mill In the
State. The frame OF that wing of the
structure which will contain the bat
teries Is now up, and the stone founda-
ton walls for the main building are
now up to near their proper height.
The heavy trestle-work upon which
will rest the frame Is nearly completed.
The big dam, tho largest and most sub
stantia1 structure Of the kind on the
Pacific coast, is also fast approaching
completion. Above the dam Is about
GOO feet Of grading for the tramway
leading to the Virginia and Truckee
Railroad. The big dam Is the wonder
Of all who SEQ it. Large gangs of
workmen are engaged upon the Vari-
Gus works We have mentioned, and
mill, dam, flume and tramway will be
completed at about the same time. So
says the Enterprise.
