NO DAMAGE DONE
WHEN dam BREAKS
cAMFIELD STRUCTURE SUFFERS;

WHOLE LENGTH 1900


The Camfield dam, in which leak

At about 70 The final
break occurred in the one weak place
in the structure. tearing hole about
70 feet wide The rest OF the dam

This morning the dam site was dry.
The break was unexpected in a GER
tain degree as it was thought yester-
day evening that the water would
drain from the dam through the spill
way and the small break that occur
red yesterday afternoon. The small
break held we'll until last evening
when it began to Increase in size. The
first break being near the top, how
ever, did not assist the structure by
relieving the heavy pressure and it
was this that caused the erevasse to
grow.
Little damage resulted from the
break and up to this afternoon no word
had been received to the effect that
any of the people on the Pecos arroyo
or below here had suffered a small
rise in the arroyo for a short time
was the only sign that the dam had

washed from the structure amounted
to about 10 feet and comprised the
weakest part Of the DAM This
means that the break can easily be
repaired and viii cause practically no
impediment to the settlement for the
site with the Garfield company, which
is now under negotiation.
Engineer Narramore, who spent last
night at the dam. witnessed the widen

away of large portion Of the dam.
He said he was impressed with the
solidity of the construction, the earth
having been put in by hydraulic

as effectively as stonework could
have done. The dam is about 1900
feet in length. so that portion de-
