ing paper, as follows
SUTRO TUNNEL FLooDED.-A dispatch re-
ceiVed in this city yesterday afternoon, dated
a.TtOn, New. says: ~ lOOded ont of tunnel
at o'clock a. m: Nobody hurt Oae hun
drel and twenty-five inches Of water flowing
two hundred and fifty feet from east header
shaft, No. -
Which, in order to beprnpaTly understood
requires few words of explanation.
The dispatch from the assistant superiu
tendent, n. b. Jackson, is given quite cor
Tectly. A large body Of water was struck at
a point $50 feet east from east header from
shaft No. ?, which drove the men from the
work. who had. no doubt, to flee for their
lives through / miles OF tunnel; but il ap-
pears no one was hurt.
Shaft No. ,, at depth of l. 0i2 feet. reached
the tunnel level about a year ago, and in drift
ing from the bottom of that shaft Il large bOty
OF water was encountered, which fill-d the
SHAFT to depth of $50 feet. and il had, in con-
sequence, 10 be abandoned. The tunnel
header is now approaching this column of
wafer $50 feet i'll height, and great precGution-
afy measures were being taken to intersect
this column (Which would exercise pr Jsure
equal TO 1000 tons on the face OF the tunRcI
by tapping il by means OF bOrehOles driven
one hundred feet ahead OF the work.
III appears that some connecting seam must
have been cut i'll the tunnel while still 250
feet from the main body of water which will
undoubtedly drain il all Off and in two or
three days probably work viii be again re-
sumcd.
Instead of the tapping of the water at this
time being an unlucky circumstance, it must
be considered very fortunate one, for it re
moves all anxiety about accidents which
might arise from meeting so formidable a
body of water
This great accumula ion OF water, which
has temperature of so degrees, is supposed
to be caused by the presence OF mineral
lode in the neighbOrhood. and if the SutrO
tunnel, which is progressing at the rate OF
fifteen feet per day. should soon strike q "hi :
bonanza IL is no more than almOSt every
miner in that section expects it To do.
