Why TAcoma's Biuns Have . Tendency
10 Slide Out to Sea.

Why TAcoma's Biuns Have . Tendency
10 Slide Out to Sea.
The great landslide at Tacoma, which
acted with euch terrible effect as TO create
the impression that a tidal wave had
struck the city, is attributed by those
familiar with the ground TO the extreme
steepness of the shores of Commencement
bay and TO the instability of the strata
composing them. In explaining this point
an oid-tine settler who Is familiar with
the ground said yesterday:
"A number of years ago the Northern
Pacific railroad sent its chiet engineer,
Samuel WiIksson. TO the Sound TO locate q
place for the Western terminal of the road
Mr.. Wiiksson examined the Sound from
Beihngham bay TO Nisqualiy, and in bis
report stated that the only spot on the
eastern coast Of the Sound between those
points that as entirely unfit tor the site
Of a town vas on the shore of Commence
ment bay. The failure of Jay Cooke, how
ever, brought about the location of the
terminal there. for reasons we'll known.
The bluff on which Tacoma is built
slopes underneath the surface of the bay
at the same angle as that seen above,
about so degrees, 10 depth OF sixty To
eighty fathoms 1.-THE chart of the geodetic
survey will give the exact depth OF the
waterl, and somewh here beneath the surface
there Is stratum OF clay. which, partlcu-
lsrly after heavy rains acts as the greassi
ways upon which the entire superincum-
bent bluff will sooner or later be launched
into the bay. The whole bluff formation
of the shores OF the Sound is the same as
the glacial formations. and like glacier
may have a motion. so slight as TO be
measured by inches only for number OF
years, when suddenly q point is reached
where it takes the form of an avalanche.
This 1t was that caused the disaster at
Skagit head few years ago. when num-
Der of Indians lost their lives. and this it
is that from time TO time causes the banks
oi the Sound in various places TO slide into
the water.
AT Tacoma the wharves and coal bunk
ers and elevators are built on piles on this
steep bank and the outer edge is so high
above the bed of the bay that the piles 20
down ninety feet before striking solid
earth. This is barely strong enough TO
bear the weight of the wharves and build
Tags. and when the weight of goods is
added. the whole structure is apt 20 give
way. particularly when earth is filed in
behind. The tendency to slide is increased
by heavy rains washing against the feet
OF the piles and the solid stone retaining
wall proved unable to Withstand the pres
sure"

TO the prospects for It's favorable

tures, both providing for an Issue Of

which il 20 be assumed by the govern

Commits, each 20 its respective
house and each by ITS author, but neither
has had any consideration at the hands Of
either the senate or house. None OF the
especial champions of the bills are at
present IN the city, but IL is gensr-
ally understood that there will be
an effort 10 secure consideration
during this session. The friends
Of the measure appreciate that
there will be many obstacles 10 overcome

opposition which developed few yesrs
