Unearthed a Big Stream of Water.
His plans were not upset until he tried
to lay securely the foundation of the
building, and then from underneath the
foundation walls there spouted steady
stream of water.
A few days later he discovered that a
large stream ofowater flowed through one
section of the plot and that a. safe founda-
ton could not be had until this stream was
diverted. The present day methods of di-
verting such streams were not widely
known at that time. at least not in this
city. He had to use old-fashioned methods,
and. despite all his efforts he could not di-
vert the rivulet. His failure cost him his
entire fortune. and a few years later he
was picked up in a starving condition, wan
dering ain1essly about. and taken to a hos

A brancs of the same subterranean chan
mel also resulted disastrously to two well
known builders who planned to erect an
apartment house near the Tesla site They
could not stem the flow of the water and
gave up about the time newer methods
were discovered for diverting these subters
ranean streams. The apartment house
which they planned to erect was eventually
put UP and is now one of the best known
and most profitable in the greater city.

walls of the structure were sunk the saw

The dangers of subterranean obstacles
were well known to the late Coils P. Hunt

obtained all the old maps of old New York,
and from study of them he decided that
the best place to build house for his own
occupancy was at the southeast corner of

famous Huntington mansion stands. The
newer methods of foundation laying have
minmized all the serious sub-surface OBJ
stacles. and no longer are there any risks.
