Round Brook Trestle Wrecked.

On the Derby extension, the earth of the roadbed and the embankments above were yet comparatively soft and unset tied when the rain came, last week and soon washed 1t down. Both land slides and washouts were expected and several of minor importance could easily have been repaired, with but few hours lost time. Early Thursday morning, the freight passed safely over the road, but rumor says that had not gone far when, with crash, a large portion of Round Hill brook trestle fell. It appears that the brook, which was greatly swollen, had left it's original course and it's full force was directed against huge em- bankment which had but recently been placed there, had swept under the foun- dations and carried 1t away. The tres tie was about 90 feet high and 300 feet or more in length. It was but tempo rary and the embankment which was swept away was part of the sssolid till'' which was to succeed the trestle.
 No trains could run to Botsford until this week and it was impossible to trans fer passengers, as there was no way of crossing the remains of the trestle, All passenger trains were run. through to Ansonia and picnic trains abandoned for the time being.
 Under the personal supervision of both Housatonic and Derby officials, q large force of bridge builders and worknen, summoned at once, was put on and kept steadily at work until the tlmbers were extracted, the earth cleared and five new ''bents" erected. The cost has been es- tlmated Ut $10,00o, to say nothing of the loss occasioned by the suspension of traffic.
