DRAINING OF RESERVOIR
IS THREATENING TRACKS
Water from Little Bear VALLEY
Finds Way Into Silver
Lake

SAN BERNARDINO, May THE
battling rise of Silver lake, which
threatens to submerge the tracks Of
the Tonopah &c Tidewater railroad, it
is said here today, is caused by the
draining of the Little Bear valley res
ervoir into the Mojave river. The
railroad company has installed NAM
moth pumps and drainage canal in
an effort to stop the steady rise of
the lake and prevent its tracks from
going out.
In order to repair several big cracks
in the new concrete dam at Little
Bear valley 1t has been found neces-
sary to empty the big reservoir, into
which the natural lake at that point
has been converted. The discovery of
the cracks in the wall is the cause of
the strained relations between the
engineers. contractors and the reser-
voir company.
TO drain the reservoir vast volumes
of water are being turned down the
is necessary to drain the reservoir to
repair the damage and ascertain what
is responsible for the faulty construc-
tion.
The increased volume of water disap-
pears with the normal flow of the
river from the surface and after it's
long journey in the underground cham
mel comes to the surface and forms
the Silver lake.
Hundreds of thousands of inches OF
water must be turned out of the reser-
voir and the waters will ultimately
find their way into the Silver lake.
