MORE FLOOD TROUBLES
WashOut in the Approach to the II. a
 P. Bridge at Tempe.

Yesterday afternoon about 4:3O o'clock the high water that for days and weeks has been swirling around the northern end of the Maricopa & Phoenix railroad bridge at Tempe. washed out about thirty feet of the piling structure that forms the ap- proach to the bridge. As soon as the news reached Phoenix the southbOund train for last night was cancelled and when there will be another train in or out again could not well be predict ed last night.
 The railroad officials said the bridge would be repaired and the train would go out on time tonight, all of which will probably come true, unless more damage occurs to the bridge. But that is the thing nobody can tell about The indications were last night that the water would recede considerably as it was reported lower at Roosevelt yesterday and falling some at the Ari- zona dam. In that event the company can begin the repairs at once and un- less more damage is done during the night a few hours work will be sui ficient.
 The rails and ties at latest advices. hanging together by virtue of the fish plates, were suspended over the chasm, and only two bents of the pilng were missing. There were rumors during the early evening that the water was making some further encroachment but they were not verified The wa ter at the time of the first break was as high and perhaps higher than at any previous time this year.

WILL Be HOT Time
COMPANY INCORPORATED YESTERDAY
TO DRIVE LATERAL WEST in
kEWHouSE TUNNEL.
AN OUTLET FOR THE OLD TOWN MINE
WORK WILL START TUESDAY MORNING
WITH MACHINE DRILLS TO
MAKE CONNECTION.

Articles OF Incorporation were filed
with the secretary of the state yesterday,
incorporating The Hot Time Transports
ton Tunnel, Drainage. Mining and
Milling company, with a capitalization of
$4,000, and the following officers and
directors for the first year of its corpor-
ate existence: w. l.. Bush. president;
J. r. Spear. vice PRESIDENT Geo. 4 KIM
bail secretary-treasurer and manager; +.
M. Freeman and J. Phillips. directors.
The company was Incorporated for the
purpose of acquiring and operating min
lug property lying between the line of
the Neuhonse tunnel ard the Old Town
mine, end primarily TO drive the lateral
connecting the Old Town workings
with the Newhouse tunnel. The incor-
porators OF the new company are the
principal stockholders in the Consold-
ated Old Town Mining company. and
the new company will l,e able TO exercise
the right Of eminent domain, inasmuch
$ il may condemn right of-way in order
to reach its objective point, it being a
transportation and drainage company.
The work will be started Tuesday
morning with machine drills a: point
opposite the lateral being driven on the
Saratoga vein. The distance to be driv-
en- IS approximately 1000 feet, AMI It
will require at least eighteen months TO
complete the connection, it being the in
ieniion of the company to push the work
with all possible speed.
The driving of this lateral will be of
inestimable benefit to the Russell gulch
section, as its course will be almost di-
rectly under the lowest part of the gulch
the entire distance. II is believed that
it will ultimately drain every mine in the
immediate section through Viii, il tra-
verses. The lateral will be driven along
the veins carrying both walls. where il
is practicable, and 1t will nnquesiienably
open up some big ore shoots. The Old
Town shaft Is over 500 feet IN depth
on the pitch Of the vein. and the lateral
will cut benz ath the bottom 4 the shaft
several hundred feet.
