Major s. X. Hooper. general passenger
and ticket agent of the Rio Grande sys-
TEN. arrived in the city yesterday morn
ing for a short stay. Mr. Hooper will
be in Salt Lake abO-t "A week and dur
ing that time expects to look over the
situation very carefully. He says his
visit here has no significance other than
to look over the ground and become ia
miliar with the conditions. During the
regime Of s. II. BabcOck this matter was
left entirely i'm his hands.
Since the retirement OF the last named
official the local field comes under the
supervision oG the officials at Denver.
Il viii not affect the work Of the men
here materially but it viii force them
to keen in closer touch with Salt Lake
affairs. Major Hooper expressed himself
as yeIl pleased with the busi-ess done
bv the Rio Grande thus far this year.
The tourist travel has not been up 20
the average. bat this fact is attributed 10

BOTTOM DROPPED OUT
San Pedro Found Granite BouI-
der Instead of Solid Founda-
ton For a Pier.

One Of The excavations for the piers
across the Santa Ana river seems to
have caused the San Pedro engineers
some trouble recently, All the piers but
one have been completed. The workmen
had gone down thirtv-fiVe feet for the
foundation of the last pier and struck
what they supposed was the granite bot
tom upon which all the piers have been
laid. The cement was put in but the
next morning there were unmistakable
signs that the cement was not in the
position that the ~workmen had left it,.
This immense mass of cement mad to be
removed, and an investigation showed
that the supposed solid foundation was
simply a granite boulder Of colossal size
and that there was large space under
il. 1S< boulder has been blasted out
of the way and the drilling and eXca-
waiting has been continued TO the solid
granite rock
