water. watching the mill, etc. One en-
gineer and pumpman were discharged,
with the intention of pumping II
hours and letting the water raise II
hours. but the plan was found to be
impracticable. as the water raised so
rapidly there was danger of drowning
the pumps, so h engineer and pump
man were re-hired. and the only reduc-
ton in expense was made by discharg-
ing one of the two watchmen at the
mill. which is situated about a mile
from the mine.
