FROM the selling of power alone to pay
the expenses of running the car line
and power plant Thus netting
clear profit on all traffic on the line.
In the Eastern states and in many
places in G lifornia these lines are
run for miles into the small towns
and farmin. communities to the larger
cities, and pay big profit on the in
yestment. That such scheme can be
made success of in this valley is al
most certain. In two years from now
the Government will start the build
ing oi the immense reservoirs sche5ul-
ed for the upper Carson. This will
furnish water for every foot o avail
able land in the county, and will mean
an increase of 10 times the present
population. Upon this the pro-
moters of the proposed ear line are
building thier plans, and they wall un-
doubtedly realize a handsome profit
from thier outlfy, should t.hey carry
ont their present plans.

HOW THE WORK ON
THE NEW TUNNEL
IS PROGRESSING

Owing TO necessary repairs on the
steam shovel and the recent wet
weather. work on the open cut of the
Consolidated tunnel at Gano street is
materially hampered, and as the repairs
on the shovel will take some time, the
work. henceforth will be done by hand.
The rock which struck about two
weeks ago promises from recent
sounding TO continue well on towards
Ives street and in preparation for bor-
ing through all the necessary mechan-
ism has been shipped TO this section.
Today the men were set TO work just
west of the temporary street, midway
between Ives and Gano streets, and IL
the rock is encountered here near the
surface, the men will start TO bore. and
at the same tiVe arch the open cut.
a trench is now being constructed to
draw off the water from the quicksand
bed as well as the water that flooded
the ditch after yesterdays rain.
AS soon as the houses, which are now
in the way. are removed, temporary
structure will be erected TO house the
compressed air apparatus with which
the drill will be operated. The mixer
lay alongside the excavation and IL is

The work on the river where they are
laying the foundation for the bridge is
progressing with even greater speed than
any other section. Daily the clumsy scows
are towed from the East Providence shore

gravel is emptied. All the excavating is
about completed and the greater part OF
the work now is directed TO the foundation
OF the piers.
At Benefit street. although the ad-
ance seems but little, in reality it is quite
the contrary Here all the overhead work,
the arches and cement work, is completed,
and fair idea OF how the work will ap-
pear when completed can be CLEANED from
a view at this end. The men who are at
Work some hundred feet from Benefit
street are barely visible as one enters be-
meath the bridge on Benefit street. Night
and day the work continues without in
terruption; the steam drill is only silent
when tine men seek safety from the blast.
The ground here is composed OF the most
stubborn rock and yields only 10 that pow
erful force-dynamite.
The abutment on the west side of North
Main street is rapidly drawing near COM
pletion and the work on the north and
south walls has already commenced. The
foundations OF these walls have received

Mr. Casey stated that the parents OF
Junkins were poor and could not afford
TO get a surety company 10 go bail, and
requested that the case be made an ex-

In the future be regarded as a precedent.
Commissioner Cross said he had been

with Mr.. Wilson that it was the custom
TO refuse such bail which he accordingly
did
Il am sorry that you have no more dis
cretion OF your own" remarked Mr..
Casey.
The $500 bail for Duncan was again
furnished by the American Bonding COM
pany OF Baltimore.
No attempt was made by Inspector Au-
gustus +. Schell today for the removal of
the Cinnamon and white men TO Boston.
Mr.. Schell came here with the intention
OF doing so. but was advised by District
Attorney Wilson to wait untilthe matter
OF Junkin's bail is settled.
