VIRGINIA CrrY. Aug. %. ls79.-K. W.
&etson. Secretary: In my letter Of July 3
! stated that u present pumping system
was . very expensive one, and that We
were trying to devise some means 10 han.
die the water more economically. This
subject we have considered we'll, and have
come To the conclusion that the only
means by which We can handle this water
with any degree Of economy 10 by allowing
Il to rise In the main incline to the 220o
level, and allowing this incline water Of
it, own accord TO flow to the bottom OF the
east shaft. By making this change We
avoid tho use Of three steam pumps, which
has reduced the expense Of running the
compressors one-half. We expect TO con.
tinus the handling Of this water st the re-
duced cost until such time - the Union
shaft will reach the 2200 level.

passengers from their seats but injured

The coaches were 10 emptisd Of the
passengers. who. on viewing tue poi.
ton Of the wrecked engine. for the first
time realized the danger through which
they had passed and the nsrrowness Of
their escape. In the Arst place, there is
not q more dangerous place on the road
for q train to run OF the track. u the
Grown Point bridge be excepted. At the
Santiago the road is built on q narrow
excavation In the steep side OF the noun.

stopped on the very edge Of the ~trestle-
work on which one half Of the switch 10
IL laid. In bounding over the ties II
partly broke through the t~restls, and DO.
cause Of this the stoppage was quickly
and suddenly made. Had the switch
been built wholly on the ground.
the speed with which tho train
was going would doubtless have
carried the locomotive and four
carloads Of srcursionists over the

the wrecking train was on the spot and
q full crew put to work to clear the track.
All the while 100 passengers were oon.

or cursing the railroad authorities for
not transferring them to another train
aud taking them on to Virginia. Tue
Roadmastsr set his men to build a track
around the wrecked engine, and then the
passengers felt sure It was an all. nights
job for them. Al II o'clock tho new
track was completed. the lightning train
came on through from the Mound House.
where II had been side.tracked for four
hours, and the excursion train passed
up, arriving in Virginia at. u o'clock.

say that Il was due to the fact that the

road is clear today and trains are all
