sMAsH.up At THE UNION.
All the balance Rsss In she shafs
Brok-u. .

At IL o'clock last night an accident
occurred at the Union shaft which will
cause delay in permanently starting the
pumps. The pumping engine had Just
been started up agsin and was moving
the pumps slowly. when every balance
bob in the shaft broke. The break oo'
Cured as the expansion cylinder OF the
engine was on its up stroke and the
stroke about half made. Mr.. Patton
was at the engineers stand. and at once
shut of steam. 30 that the engine
stopped when the stroke was completed
Had he not done SO, the cylinder heads
would have been blown out.
The balance bobs are placed at the
$50, 600. HOO. 1900. 100 and 1900
levels. They are Of cast iron and eaicu'
lated to carry each 20 to 40 tons OF bal
last TO balance the rods. They were
each carrying on an average about ~
tons. OF course tho breaking OF the
balance hobs threw all tho weight OF the
rods and attachments upon the engine
This was not less than $50 tons. Be
sides this there were the immense weight
and momentum Of the walking beam aud
its attachments and Of the surface bob
a. we'll as the big balance Wheel
all thrown directly upon the engine, and
the only wonder Is that the entire mass
-somsthing over 400 .tons-did mol
utterly destroy IL. 1t stood the strain,
however. without injury.
The CAUSE Of the breakags 10 sup.
posed to have been Q flaw in one o.
The straps OF some one OF the balance
hobs, probably the upper one. These
straps are Of wrought iron six inches
wide and an inch thick. A flaw in the
welding OF one Of these straps wal
recently detected and the strap con
dsmned aud replaced. Probably . sim
liar defect caused the accident OF last
night. The giving away OF q strap on
the uppe bob would bring the whole
strain on the chord. When that gave
way the strain would be communicated
to tho next bob and cause 1t to break,
and in that way the whole would SO JUS
as they did last night, from top to bot
tom.
Some Of the bobs had their most
pieces broken of. others had the chort
broken, and in some the nose piece ws'
pulled of. The accident will cause
DELAY Of three or four weeks in starting
the pumps. and will also interfere will
the use OF the shaft for the work t.
which it was about to be put. Repairs
10 the hobs can be made on the Com
stock, and doubtless stronger straps, o.
ut least better ones. will be provided.
1t was one Of those accidents which
could not be forssssn or avoided and !
is much better that 1t should occur nov
than further along. Everything Wa
moving splendidly when the accid h
occurred and congratulations on thu
success Of the pumping machinery wer'
in order. The conclusion was 30 grsa'
as to startle everybody. Men had beer
stationed up aud down the shalt Mt tn
pump and bob stations to see that every
thing went well. After the accident ont
came up after another and all made
their several reports, so that the fol
measure OF the disaster BECAME known
by degrees.
The work OF repairing will be som.
msncsd at oncs and pushed with oil
energy. Each bob must be brought to
the surface, repaired and replaced.

ABOUT MORTGAGES.
Cersain Cias.es OF Them Declared
Void By she supreme Court.

The Supreme Court Of Nevada has
rendered . decision in regard to mort
cages which Is OF the utmost Importance
to the taxpayers. especially in Storey
county. where 1t is well known that GER
tain capitalists are accustomed to loan
money and take security in some other
party's name in order to avoid paying
taxes ON their capital.
The case in which the decision above
referred to was rendered 10 that OF l.. p.
Drs1lsr W. Tyrrell & Reese. to foreeloss
a mortgage Of $4,000 on the Union
Iron Works, which mortgage was taken
in the name Of ]. Il. Latham and subse-
quently assigned to Drsxlsr BY Mrs.
Latham after the death OF her husband
consideration expressed. 81.
On trial Of the case the defense set up
that Latham was not the mortgage. but
that Drsxler was the real party in inter.
est; that the mortgage had been executed
in favor Of Latham. q nonresident. In
order to deiraud the State revenue BY
avoiding the payment OF the tax on
mortgages, and that therefore the mort
gage was invalid.
The District Court held that the do.
Tense was not good. that the mortgage
was valid, and gave judgment for plain.
tiff for the entire amount claimed and
for $500 attorneys fees. =,
In the meantime Tyrrsll x Reese sold
the property to the Bank Of California,
and il was in the interest OF that insti.
tuition that the validity Of the mortgage
was contested. Under direction OF the
Court the Sheriff sold the property, the
Bank Of California being the purchaser.
Tho Supreme Court has reversed this
Judgment. It IL decided that while q
personal judgment against Tyrrell d
Reese for the amount 10 valid, that the
mortgage, being fraudulent. 10 not a
valid lien upon the property. This
awards the property to the Bank oil Cal
ifornia, free from the mortgage, and the
Bank will recover from DreIlsr the
amount paid by 1t for the property Of
the Sheriff's sale; also, the $500 attor'
neys' fees. DrsIler will have to look to
Tyrrell & Reese for the money now due
him.
There are in the hands Of another
party in Virginia at the present time. Oh
shown by the records, not less than
$50, 900 OF mortgages taken in the same
way, and under this decision they are
not valid. Then California is also sui-
isring similarly with Nevada froin such
transactions. It is turn and turn about,
and while this Virgipian is loaninG
money here in the name OF . San Fran
ciscan, the San Franciscan Is lonning
money below in the name OF the Wiz
ginian. and thus both States are de-
frauded Of legal revenue.
