letters from old-time surveyors all over

Making Repairs slowly.
At the present time the Union Stock
Yards company is making repairs to the
east bent Of the Q street vladuct and the
expectation is that the broken sewer will
be repaired at tho same time. Some sort
Of an agreement has been reached whereby
the city will pay a portion of the cost Of
repairing the sewer in case demand is
made. The idea Is at this time to get the
sewer fixed and settle differences about
the cost later on.
Late Friday night there was cavein OF
the pavement on N street at Twenty-fourth
street, but the hole was flled with cinders
yesterday. An old sewer ditch at Twenty
fourth and N streets occasionally caused
trouble of this kind. II is asserted by city
officials that when the Twenty-fourth
street pavement is relaid this trouble will
be stopped, the washout is then to be filled
with broken rock and cinders and the cause
Of the trouble removed.
