Later PartiCuIarS-NO Lives
Lost.

A Springfield special dispatch to tn"
Jniom from Chester, gives the following
additional particulars of the flood; About
twelve wears ago the second reservoir wa
built, about three miles further mp the
stream, by Church Bros. This was
smaller than the lower one and covered
from fifty 10 eighty acres. The upper
reservoir broke away first and swept
over the lower reservoir with an immense
volume, making break Of about four
rods in the highway dam of the lower
reservoir. The upper reservoir was built
of earth. and the whole dam suddenly
gave way. Harry Mcacham was at the
reservoir at the time. and made haste to
warn the people ut Blush Hollow. His
warning and the fact that but part
of the lower reservoir dam gave way,
prevented loss of life, and also
very much l"sscncd the damage done.
The Boston and Albany Railroad Com
pany suffers heavily at Nddlcfcld
switch. The long two-archrd stone
bridge, under which the Middlrfcld
brook and turnpike run, was swept away,
rs was also considerable length of the
track, amounting in all To- about two
hundred feet. 1t will cost about one hun
dred thousand dollars to repair the
break and will require considerable time.
Between Middlrticld switch and Chester
, depot there are eight railroad bridges,
five of which are either unharmcd Or but
slightly damaged. Three are If Stone,
costing each $1,000. Three of the
bridges are So badly damaged a> to need
to be entirely rebuilt. One l. a stone
bridge. costing $4,000. and the two
others are those next west of Chester.
one Of which was to have been replaced
this fall by an iron bridge. TIL" los
on these bridges will reach about tif-
teen thousand dollars each. The
bridge next east of Chester station which
is soon to be replaced by an iron struc-
turc, is damaged by the loss Of one of the
abutment>, but it will be repaired by noon
SO that trains can run between Spring
field and Chester. The track i washed
out in many places west of Chester, but
/ no damage of anv amount i reported
west Of Middlefeld switch. Work will
be- prosecuted on the bridges as fast II,
possible, but the superintendent estimates
that it will be several days before the
road will be pa>sablc. 1t will probably
cost one hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars to rebuild the bridges and repair the
, road, while the loss by interruption oi
