Charles Gracey, superintendent of
the Southwestern mining com pany, of
Eldorado Canyon, arrived in kingman
few days ago to look after carload
of we'll drilling machinery, which has
been lying 10 the Kingman yards for a
week or more past. The machinery
was billed to Chloride, but owing to
the wrecking of the Arizona & Utah
railroad by floods it will probably have
to be hauled its destination by team.
The machinery is to be used in boring
for water and to also prospect the
mines of the company at great depth.
Mr.. Gracey reports that the great
cloudbnrst of last month was one of
the most destructive in the history of
Eldorado Canyon. The water rose to
a hight of sixty feet and rolled in great
waves, carrying away trees that stood
on the banks of the canyon for more
than thirty years. The quantity of
rocks and gravel carried by the food
into the Colorado river was truly mar.
velous, nothing like it having ever
been seen at that place before, although
some great floods have gone down that
particular canyon.
