P1rrsBURe, June 15-Colonel I. z.
Roberts yesterday visited the broken South
Fork dam. He will report the result OF
his Investigations there to the Western
Pennsylvania Engineers Society. In an
interview with a correspondent he said the
size of the lake had been greatly overestl-
mated. and that the dam, as reconstructed,
wa very conpactly built.
81 fully believe from what L nave seen
here he said, ''that the real cause OF the
dam giving way was on account OF the wa
ter flewins over the top of it and under
mining the lower slope. You can see
where the water came over the top. l
fnd that the slope on the lower or outside
mart of the dam is shorter than upon the
o1ber side. The rock and stone is heavier,
however. About one yard OF the filling on
the lower side will weigh about as much
as one and half yards on the upper side'

angle. the water would have much better
chance to undermine the embankment' l

SUNSHINE RETURNS

Aud the Work Goes On-A Letter From
the Vice President.
JoHNsTOwN, PA, June 15.-S1nshine
succeeded the morning showers, and this
was the first bright noOnide JOhnstown
has seen for a week.
On the general principle that rain can
not fall perpetually, the several thousand
men who are anxious to clean up this
ruined city, are hoping for fair weather
from this on.
The Conemaugh is swollen and its rush
ing current reminds JohnstoWn of the day
precedlng the food. The high water is
an advantage, however, as it carried away
a great portion of the impurities lodged
along the river banks.
Adit. Gen. Hastings was informed t-day
that the Philadelphia delegation OF Cover
nor Beavers commission had started west
this morning. Their mission is understood
to be the distribution of the Governors
million dollar loan.
This morning the State Board of Health
began sanitary survey Of the towns Of the
Conemaugh Valley from South Fork to
Nineveh. A complete census Of families
and a report of their condition Of health
and living will be made.
But two bodies had been recovered at
noon. The unidentified body of boy was
found above the stone bridge, and that OF
an old man on Main street.

The indications are that the water below
