Co. has refused to allow the inspection
Of the pipe in the mainS.)
A piece of small pipe. badly tubercu-
lated on the outside. and two pieces of
service pipe from the house of Mr.
Richards We're submitted. The exterior
was rusted and the interior filled with
terror was too small for the forming OF
pronounced tubercules.
Mr.. Stafford considers Is years suffi-
cient for the formation of tubercules
which may be scraped off with a jack
knife. A pipe taken from Mcrrimac
waters after SO years. showed decided
tuberculosis, but when the protuber-
ances had been Jared off, it was hard
to determine whore they had been eX
cept for spots eaten into the iron. The
useful life of coated pipe he believes to
be so years: it might then look well
but would not give good service. Only
a suspicion of the interior condition can
be gained from the exterior after Is or
IS years. When tuberculosis has COM
menced its attack upon the inperfec-
tons in the coating, it rapidly extends
it's development. and deterioration al
"
with water. In 10 years it would suffer
20 per cent: in 10 years, so per cent. and
in so years, 80 per cent. In this system
he would expect to find pronounced de-
terioration after Is or IS years, but not
necessarily differentiation, While in Il
general way he would expect tubercu-
lation to be general throughout the sys-
tenn in 20 years, but jars would easily
displace it then. There is a way to test
pipe without taking it up-a test of
friction as compared with new pipe OF
the same size and length, at the same
pressure, and such a test was made on
Tuesday of this week. The pipe from
the reservoir, a 12-inch, showed de-
precia ton of carrying capacity of so
per cent.-sone 6-inch pipe, 40 per cent.
The 12-inch has deprecated as much as

THE OLYMPIA DOcKED.
Seriously Damaged by Recent Ground
ing on Maine Coast.

Norfolk, Va, Sept. 1O.-With two long,
deep burrows extending along the port
and starboard sides of her underbody and
a powerful stream of water gushing from
a crushed plate beneath her engine room.
the cruiser Olympia is resting in the wood
drydock of the Norfolk navy yard.
The work of docking the vessel was a
delicate task for Naval Constructor Ev-
ans, owing to the injuries the ship sus-
tanned when she ran upon a ledge of rock
off the harbor of Portland, Me. during
the recent naval maneuvers, but it was
accomplished safely and for the first time
since the accident the damage has been
wholly seen. Along the starboard side of
the OLYMPIA bottom for distance of SO
feet or from frame 30 to frame 4S. there
extends an indentation two and Il half
inches deep. On the port bottom, from
frame q to frame A. a distance of u
feet, the plates are denied to depth
of -. inches. and many are buckled.
New plates probably will have to be
placed all along the damaged part OF the
Olympia on both sides of her bottom.
