WHERE ITS FLAW LAY
That Broken South Fork Dam Dis
cussed by the Engineers.
ROBERTS ON EARTHAND OVERFLOW
The Colonel Thinks the Two We're Not
Intended to 60 Together.
AS TO THE INSUFFICIENT wASTE-wEIR

The Engineers Society Of Western Penn
sylvania held a meeting last night at its rooms,
in the Penn building. President Brashear pre-
sided. 1t was ammo ounced that Colonel I. T.
Roberts would read paper on the South
Fork dam, but the Colonel said he had not
been so advised, and had no special report pre-
pared. He had made a visit to the dam since
the flood, and was willing to give, as far as he
could, the result of his investigations.
He said he wished to correct one thing. He
had been reported as saying thar the rainfall
had nothing to do with the breaking OF the
dam. This was an error.
He made drawing of the dam and ex-
planned in detail the proportions of the same.
The waste-wier, he said, was 70 feet
wide, and from what he could learn depth
of ~ feet of water had been flowing through
this outlet for hours before the dam gave way.
Up in the mountain there were evidences of a
heavy rain fall-a cloud burst-and the waste
wier was not sufficient to carry off the water
which flowed into the dam. An overflow was
the result and this was the cause of the dam
giving away
Colonel Roberts stated, in answer to ques-
tions, that he had no fault whatever to find
with the workmanship and the general con-
struction of the dam. He regarded it as first
class in every respect-at least that portion of
it still standing. He knew nothing about that
washed away. 1t was never intended, however,
that an earthen dam should overflow.
Mr.. Charles Davis had also made visit to
the dam. He also made lengthy report as to
the terrible force of the water. The character
of the work on the DAM he said, was much bet
ter than he had expected to see. The dam was
originally constructed under the supervision of
the State Engineers and it was undoubtedly
first class. Statistics were shown to prove that
earth dams had stood the test better than any
other. They ranged in proportion of to 4
made of stone and / to II made of timber.
President Brashear stated, in conclusion,
that from the opinions of the engineers who
had examined the dam, and other evidence
relating thereto, the dam was well enough con-
structed. The drain only was not sufficient to
prevent an overflow.

CLOSE OF A MURDER TRIAL.
In the Allen Case Judge Stowe Will Charge
the Jury To-day.

Tue Jury IOsDays
One of the perennial murder trials which
have arisen from the famous, or infamous
yellow row." came up again yesterday in the
resumption of the case of the Commonwealth
against Charles E. Allen for the murder OF
Steven, alias "Bud" Lee, before Judge Stowe
The witnesses sworn at the morning session
were Captain Mercer, Inspector McAleese, De-
tective Coulson and George Owens. Captain
MERGERS testimony was heavily against Allen,
showing that he (Allen) acknowledged that he
shot Lee because Lee had thrown dirt upon
him, Coulson and Inspector McAleese cor
roborated this testimony.
George Owens, who was an eve witness OF the
fracas, testified that a. fuss arose, the men
clinched and shot was fired At the after
noon session Allen was placed on the stand,
and directly contradicted the previous wit
nesses To leading questions he returned
evasive answers, and seemed troubled with an
abnormal loss of memory. He claimed that
Lee drew knife and that he drew his pistol,
and it was discharged by accident.
Other witnesses were examined in rebuttal,
and w. r. Brennan opened arguments for the
defense, and claimed that Allen was in ieop-
ardy of his life. District Attorney Porter
closed the case, court adiourning until this
morning, when Judge Stowe will charge the
iury.

Ex-Congressman Barr's Protest Ignored In
Plate Glass Gobble.

Ex-Congressman Barr's Protest Ignored In
Plate Glass Gobble.
A meeting Of the stockholders of the Pitts
burg Plate Glass Company was held yesterday
in Creighton. The capital stock and indebted
ness of the company was increased $3.50, 900,
making the capital stock of the company now
S2,7500O0 The increase was to facilitate the
the buying of the new Ford City Plate Glass
Works, as outlined in these columns in April
last.
1t was thought the meeting would be lively
on account of tho opposition of ex-Congress-
man Barr and the minority; but such was not
the case. Captain Ford and Mr.. Pitcairn both
stated there was positively no opposition to
the increase of stock. They say that, when put
to vote, itwas carried almost unanimously. At
the April meeting seven of the stockholders
opposed the buying of the Ford City works,
and of those members two were present yester-
day, but offered no opposition, but instead both
were in favor of the increase.
They further stated that, out of 20 600 votes,
II, 200 voted for the increase. As to Mr.. Barr,
Mr.. Pitcairn stated they intended to ignore
him altogether. Mr.. Barr was not present, nor
was he represented.

OUR OWN LOCAL FLOOD.
A Possible Triumph of Mind Over Matter
Coming at Last.

A Possible Triumph OF Wind Uvef Watter
Coming at Last.
The operation of relieving. the Red Pond of
its overflow was suspended Monday night,
owing to the breaking down of the large en-
CINE, making it impossible to continue the
pumping. 1t was repaired yesterday. and, with
the addition of another engine, capable of
throwing 4,40O gallons an hour, work was re-
sumed last night.
A new ten-inch pipe has been laid on
Center avenue. which, with the small
dam built Monday. effectually prevents
any further inflow. 1t is estimated that the
water is As feet in the deepest part. Work is
being pushed night and day. and Mr.. Smith
hopes to have it thoroughly drained inside of 70
hours, after which repairs on the sewer will be
instantly commenced
While, of course. it is not pretended that
there is no danger in this large body of water,
it is yet considered that many people in that
vicinity are needlessly alarmed.
