In AND ABOUT THE CITY
WATER WORKS MATTRRs.

Shooting Raised the Water in the Big
Well Nearly Three Feet.
Supt. James Manning was sean yesterday
by MORNING NEWS reporter and asked
about the working Of the water works. He
said since the two wells were shot they have
been flowing freely and the supply appears
to be increased somewhat, but the amount
OF water furnished Is not as great as was
desired
Work is still going on upon the two new
wells, Capt. Manning says, but 1t will be
some time yet before the drilling will be
complete. When these wells are finished
and connected he thinks the supply Of arte-
sian water win be large enough TO dispense
with the use of river water.
The shooting Of two OF the wells at the
water works had curious effect upon the
big well at the Springfield plantation, as
the MORNING NEWS stated last week. This
well is IA miles from the water
works, but the day after the ex-
plosiou Of dynamite in the two wells
the Springfield well was OVERLOOKING.
Previous 70 the shooting of the wells the
water In the big we'll had ceased to over
nov the pipe at a point IA feet above the
ground, but a measurement taken a few
days after the wells were shot showed the
water to stand 10 feet 10 inches above the
ground, a rise Of "a inches. This rise
meaning an increased flow of several thou
sand gallons per day. 1t was necessary to
add an additional joint to the pipe to con-
troll the waste Of water
Superintendent Manning was asked for
an explanation of this phenomenal increase
In well so remote from the wells shot
In reply he said that the whole
subformatlon of the earth at that depth in
this locality is of light porous limestone,
and easily affected by an explosive agency.
The explosion Of dynamite opened new
veins in the neighborhood Of the Spring
held well, which have now become a tribu-
tary to 1t. This new supply continues I'M
diminished.
Capt. Manning says that as soon as the
new wells are completed at the present
water works and the effect upon the well at
the Springfield plantation more fully noted,
steps will doubtle be taken to begin work
on five new wells at the Springfield plenta-
ton. The superintendent is very anx-
ious to see a new well on the Springfield
plantation for many reasons, the present
inadequate supply of water at the present
works being the chief reason. He says that
with an improved system of water works
located upon the Springfield plantation 1t
will be much easier work to supply the
city with water, and in case of fire
the pressure of water at the plugs
alone will be sufficient in the ordinary run
Of fires without the aid Of a fire engine, ON
account OF the close proximity Of the water
works.
In conclusion, Supt Manning said that
the present water works needs a new "high
duty" engine, as the slow duty" engine ow
in use does not furnish great enough pressure
to carry the water to the hight desired. The
old engine is doing good work, however,
just now, and about 100000 gallons Of
water are being pumped daily.

THE SOUTH BOUND TERMINUS.
Not Yet Settled Whether Columbia or
6umter Will Get It.


Sumter Will Get It.
The Columbia Is. c. Register seems to
think that there is little doubt Of the
South Bound making any point than Colum-
bia its terminus Referring to the Brun-
son-Graham route, which 1t thinks will be
adopted, il says that it points for Columbia
from the Savannah river, crossing as the
crow flies. Such a line passes directly
through Brunson, on the Port Royal road,
and Graham's, on the South Carolina with
out the detection of an inch. Whilst Column
bia would regret not to have the line pass
through Barnwell, we yet see the object Of
the directors ct the new road il the shortest
line to the contemplated northern terminus.
The Brunson-Graham line would be the
shortest possible line passing through Rob-
ertsville, Steenbottom, Beach Branch and
Brunson, In Hampton county, aud thence
through Bufords bridge to Graham's, in
Barnwel county, aud from Grahan's
through Pine PLAN, Lexington county, to
Columbia. THIS is a fine region Of country,
with good agricultural resources, and is one
of the best timbered regions in the south.
The distance from the Savannah river
crossing to Columbia is 100 miles on the
best maps With this route selected there
would not be minutes difference between
the run from Columbia to Savannah and
the present run to Charleston, with this i'm
portant difference, that the Savannah con-
nection will pass Through more resource
full country. And unquestionably it will
pay every way. Besides this, it will be the
easiest graded road in the state, admitting
the fastest time with perfect safety. if
needed, aud the cost of the road ought to
fall within S2,0O0,00O. There are
solid resources behind the en-
terpriss and there is no reason why it
should meet with any delay. ALI the road
has to do now is to come right along and be
| ready for southern travel next fall.
Referring to the above, MORNING NEWS
reporter learned yesterday from one high
in authority in the South Bound Company
that no part of the line has been located
beyond the Savannah river, nor has it been
determined whether the northern terminus
of the South bound will be at Columbia or
| Sumter. The South Bound folks are not
| disposed to have much said about their Gu
| terprise in the newspapers, and about all
| that can be said of it authoritatively is that
the work of construction Is progressing
favorably all along the line from Savannah
| to the Savannah river, and that the bridge
contractor Is on the ground at work. and
material is daily arriving for the structure
| over the river.
