 About 12 men are now engaged in tearing out, clearing the way for the spur track from the end of the "Y'' to the quarry site where a steam shovel will load the rock.
 It IS estimated that approxi- mately 10 tons of powder will be used in one tremendous shot which will not produce such a thuiiderous racket as might be supposed, but should create a very real earthquake shock. It is difficult to set date. at this time, as to the probable date Of discharging this shot which is considered of sufficient force to break down enough rock for the entire breakwater project.
