Water Came Through a Hole
in the Mud.
Several Workmen Had to Run for
Their Lives.
The Accident is Not Serious and Work
Will BE Resumed shortly.

The big sewer tunnel under the river
between Fox and India points filled with
water just before o'clock yesterday
morning. and the four workmen within
made dash of $50 feet for life and liberty.
1t was peculiar accident, caused by the
opening of "spud hole" and has de-
layed work on the tunnel ever since, al
out and the work of repairing the break is
about completed. The tunnel opens
from the shaft connected with the "air
lock- exclusively described in THE
NEWS short time ago, located on the
Hills wharf property off Aliens avenue,
and part OF the big East Side sewer
system. The workmen had made admira-
BILE progress up to Saturday night when
the four brick masons who
comprise the night shift discovered
small stream of water trickling down
from overhead, just back of the last row
OF bricks in the invert. They paid little
attention to it, thinking it must be due
to an eel hole with which the river bed is
perforated, so to speak. The "trickle"
became stream, however, and they were
obliged to stop it. Instead OF plas-
tering the opening with mud,
which is unusually stiff and elastic, they
thought they could do better by romov-
ing the last iron plate bolted on tho out
side OF the tunnel. They tried it and a
rush Of water the diameter OF a.big stove
pipe followed. One of the men tried to
stop the opening with his hat, then his
jumper; but they had to flee and within
10 minutes the tunnel was filled the
entire length to the shaft. Investigation
was made yesterday and large hole, evil
IDENTIFY made long time ago by dredger
spud, or large square pile driven down to
steady the dredger, was found extending
down to the tunnel line. This hole had
filed with slush, or soft mud, which the
workinen disturbed in tunnelling and IL
began To ooze out, the opening
constantly growing longer. Aside from
the delay TO the work no damage was
done, and the delay is immateriai, for the
contractor has already saved several days
over the time prescribed, the tunnel being
completed at the rate of ten feet every six
hours. The method OF repairing
the break is interesting. A
large square OF canvas was
sunk in the river over tho hole, which
was found by probing, and anchored with
iron weights. Several bags of mud were
their deposited on the canvas and thus a
practically air-tight covering was placed
over the opening and the pumping Of the
water from the tunnel and shaft could be
easily consummated
