ALL SORTS OF WATER TROUBLE
Katy Water Tank Goes to Pieces at
Fort Scott, Kansas,


/ That the Katy is having all sorts
/ of water trouble both on its northern
/ lines as well as the Texas divisions
can be seen from the following
which was taken from the Fort
Scott Tribune of September s:
With crash that could be heard
plainly for several blocks the mon
ster water tank standing about 100
yards west of the Katy railway sta
ton collapsed last night about S
o'clock The big tub-shaped appar-
atus which contained fifty thous-
and gallons of water. was not known
! to be out of order and its crashing
TO earth was a great surprise to the
Katy people here. The noise the
smashing made created a great deal
of excitement and at first the gen.
eral belief was that the Katy rail-
ing the big tank smashed fourteen
telegraph wires and service was for
a time crippled, though later the
wires were adjusted The amount of
water contained in the big vessel
rushed in a torrent TO the river and
increased the flow of that turbulent
stream. The officials here at once
sent call foS construction gang
and work was started today to re-
build the big tank. The company
managed to procure water elsewhere
today but hopes to have the tank in
I operation in a day or two.
