A dispatch to The Sentinel from
Delta today states that the water in
the Gunnison was within one foot of
the level of the great flood of 1884. |
The river at this city yesterday rose
eight inches. The water committee |
of the city council in conjunction |
with Superintendent Vedder. becom-
ing alarmed at the possibility of high |
er water which might reach their
engines, started yesterday with five
men to build up an embankment to
protect the city waterworks. Thus
far there has been no danger. but
should the river continue to rise it
might endanger the city's water sup
ply. without, therefore, waiting.
this committee has begun precaution-
ary measures to prtect the pump
house and the water supply. Already
much work has been accomplished
and there can hardly be said. with
what work has been done, that there
is any great element of danger. even
hough the water should rise several
inches higher than the rise of yester-
lay.
