Yeaterday afternoon about 3 JO o'olock the lug* irrigating reservoir situated •boat six milea above Franktown, Washoe Valley, at Little Valley, on Hubert oreek, suddenly gave vay. The reservoir waa about three-quarters of • mile wide, a mile long and from thirty to fifty feet deep. When the reeervolr broke a perfect wall of water eame down the eanyon to the valley. Franktown, standi og near the month of the eanyon in the eeorae of the torrent, waa awept away aa though the housea had been ao many mateh bozee. Only two build\x=req-\ inge are left atanding in the plaee, the depot and the hotel. Th. reaarvolr waa built laat summer by the ranchmen of Waahoe Valley for the parpoae of etoring up water to be need in the irrigation of their landa. It had been fearad for two or three daya that the dam would break, aa it began to leek vary badly. The Virginia and Truckee Railroad waa aura to be badly damaged in oaae of the dam giving way, and the railroad folka conferring with the ranchman, it waa thought adviaable to let the water oat, aa the weather bo\x=req-\ ing very threatening and the dam liable to go at any moment. The aluioe-wey of the reatrvoir waa opened and the watar waa being drawn off whan the whola atruclure gave way, probably from the current cutting round the aJuioe-way once the water waa in motion. A number of man who were below the dam when it broke were oaught by the rnah of watar and carried varioua dia\x=req-\ taucra down the canyon, bat Inckily all ware able to catch hold of variou* objects and drag themeelvee aahOra. There were from 160 to 200 people living in and about Franktown. All bad for two or tbrea days been alive to the dangers of their position, and had removed all the lighter and more valuable part of their household goode. The fauiiliea had alao been eent away, many persona Hading abetter at the Bowere Mansion. The trlegrapn operator waa um* ">• only man left in frsuktown yMterd»y afternoon. He remained at hit poet, bat waa on the alert. Finally he beard a tremendous roaring and ora*bing in the mouatains, and looking ont saw a perfect wall of water coming down the canyon. He aaya thia wall appeared to hint to be aboat 1000 feat high. He grabbed hia inatrnment, tore it loose and ran. He had the good fortune to reaoh a place of aafety before the flood atruck the town. The damage to the railroad la oonsid\x=req-\ erable. When the main torrent rashed down on ita way toward Waahoe Lake it made a clean aweap of the roadway for a distance of about 100 yarda. The track for thia diatance waa broken and carried bodily for aoine distance, where it waa left lying in the sagebrush. For a dia\x=req-\ tance of half a mile the track ia covered with land, aagebruah and debria of all kinds.- Tba telegraph polta were awept away for a diatance of about halt a mile. The ranchmen of Waahoe Valley are great auflarera by the flood. If >■ Mid that aeveral rancbea are rained. In aoute placea the ground ia torn np and in othera ia covered with aand. bowldera and all manner of debria. The build\x=req-\ luge are all awept away, and it ia aaid lunuy domeatia aaimala were drowned. Tba*dam age to Franktown and vioin\x=req-\ ity ia put down at aboat $50,000, and tba d*maga to the railroad at about $5,000. A wrecking train carrying aboat seventy-five men waa at onoe aent up to the break from Caraon, and the work of clearing tbe track waa pushed aa rapidly aa poaaibla. No through train waa aent out from Virginia last evening, and the Virginia and Truckee railroad m*ag»ment think that it will be impoeaible to run any through traina over the road before tomorrow. Tba dam waa aituated at a height of between three and four handred feet above Franktown. acroaa a narrow gorge at tbe fool of Little Valley, aod wa» built of atone and earth, waa about flfly-eix feel high, and coat about $4000. In placea below it the canyon ia quite pre\x=req-\ cipitoua and tba tumbling down of tbe waUr waa fearful. Darna of tree trunks, brush tod tuniUliog rocki would be formed in an inatant, tbe water piling up to an immense height (woe aay 100. feet), and an inatant after all would give way, tbera would be a ruah, another dam would form and give way. In tbia way, by a eueeesnion of great leapa and with a tremendous roar and commotion the tlood tumbled down into the valley. WaalMl-*e Kaperl KsperM There waa much profanity in tbe office of the County Jtecorder thia morning, which, on the entry of outsiders, sub\x=req-\ aided into mutteringa like diatant thunder. There waa nothing tha matter, nothing at all; yet there waa much mutter. At length a Niwa reporter aaught sight of an uncanceled vouchcr lo the handa of the Auditor, drawn ia favor of J. L. Dor ant for $13. He found, on examination, that when tha county expert waa writing tba ez-Auditor'a book*, tbia voucher had been entered aa having been paid by tbe Coutfty Treaaurer out of theOineral Fund. It waa further foaud that a State voucher tor $76 for rent of tbe Sarafleld Guard had been rbnrgii up aa paid when it had not been returned. In fact, in writing up tba ex\x=req-\ Auditor'a booka. several warrants drawn December 30 and 31 bad been charged np aa paid, whan, February 1, three of tboaa warranta, amounting to $56 60, wera atill in the Auditor'a handa. To make tbe whole caae atill plaiuer: Treasurer Otey, in hia report, aaya be paid during January $10,855 W, aod pro\x=req-\ ducea vouchers for the same. Now, all the warranta dtawn by Auditor Brennan daring tha mouth amounted to only about $3850. Tha balance wera war\x=req-\ ranta drawn by tha ex-Auditor. Of coarae on return of tba vouchera paid by' tba Traaanrer to the Auditor, that officer credited them up to the Treasurer and abarged them to the aavaral funds on which they bad bean drawn Whan thia waa dona it transpired that the ax\x=req-\ pert in writing up the hooka for tba ex\x=req-\ Auditor had already cbargad them all np and credited tha Traaaurer with them. The Coanty Commiaeionet* ahould at once appoint an expert on that expert. There are entriea ia hia handwriting in tba Auditor'a journal aneh aa no bookkeeper or other person exoept an expert would aver make. Tha «an deaa not know the flret principlaa of journalixing, however valuable ha may oa a« an ax\x=req-\ part. Soma ona who knowa where aome one or more of tha million etreak of ore in Sierra Nevada are to be found, wants to wager $1000 or $2000 that ha can point out a bonaaxa ia that mine. Tha fact ia ohe can aoaraly go amlsa In tha mina, bat tha troable la tha ore foaad la not a bonaasa,asd that la juat how tha wagerer would loaa hia aoin.
