SIXTY LIVES LOST.
The wainaf Greve Dam Swept
Away.


The waimaf Grsve Dam swept
Away.
Tho great dara across the Hasszyampa
at Walnut Grove, in Yayapai county,
went out about 2 o'clock on last Saturday
morning, leaving in its track death and
destruction. The dam was 40 feet high,
400 feet long at top, l35 feet thick at bed
rock, and ten feet on top. The apron
wall was Is feet thick at the bottom and
six feet at the l00-foot line. Both these
walls were Of solid masonry and the
space between them filed with loose
stone. The estimated weight Of the dam
was 80 900 tons, and the pressure weight
Of water when the dam was full was
% 900 tons, and the dam was said to hold
8, 900, 900 900 cubic feet Of water. A lower
dam was commenced last year and it too
was swept away. The dam cost about
1850, 900 and as much more has been ex-
pended in improvements, all Of which
are totally lost. The following report OF
the disaster is taken from the Prescott
papers: Twenty-three persons are known
to be lost, and at least fifty more are
missing and reported to be.
John Silsbee.
The Hayes family-father, mother, two
sons and two daughters.
Two engineers, names not known.
Mr.. Boone and daughter.
Jas. Reynolds.
Mcmillan, the companys driver.
Miss McCarty, cook for the Van Bnren
family.
Charles Bracket.
Unknown man and seven Cinnamon,
twenty-three in all.
DR.. Miller, Sheriff O'Neill and others
have gone down to the scene OF the
catastrophe.
News Of the terrible disaster was yes-
terday confirmed by Moses Moore and
his brother, two prospectors, who lett the
scene Of the disaster at II O'Clock Mon
day, coming by way Of Copper Basin.
Mr.. Moore's statement to the Courier
is about as follows:
At 2 O'Clock Friday last the water in
the big lake was rising at the rate Of Is
inches an hour.
AT 8 o'clock, the man in charge sent a
man named Burke TO warn people below.
He failed to carry out his instructions.
The Akard boy went below and it was
feared he WAS oycrtaken and drowned,
but he afterwards returned to the Grove.
Soon after dark, Friday night, the waste.
way proved inadequate to carry off the
| surplus water, which rose one foot higher
than the top Of the great stone structure.
AT a quarter past one Saturday morning
/ the great dam commenced to 20 and
soon there was not yestige of it left.
The great lake. which was about two
miles in length, one and oDe-bali miles
wide and from 20 TO 30 feet deep, was
drained oi its water in about two hours.
| The lost, at the upper dam, number
about twenty-five. Among them were
Francis NJ. Packer.
/ A letter from Sheriff O'Neill who is at
the scene OF the disaster, says: Things
hero are in the worst possible shape. So
far it is thought there are between fifty
and sixty lives lost. Bodies are
very badly scattered, and the further
down The river We go the more we find.
Ed. Silsbee takes the loss OF his brother
very hard. Bob Brow had a close call.
4 So far 81 bodies have been found, 10 at
Rourkss ranch, 3 at Wickenburg, and
further down.
4 The calamity is far reaching and heart
rending, and the loss Of life and property
rs inestimable at present.

Mrs. Tatro has secured the agency
for Daggett's Patent Rooster and
Baker, a new kitchen utensil which
will be wanted by every good house,
wife who is able to pay for 1t, as it
saves its cost in two or three bakings,
aud pays for itself every time it is
used by the saving of time effected
and the thoroughness of its cooking.
The price o: this new Rooster and
Baker ranges from 1925 to 1926,
according to size. 1t is tho very best
