STUART A tOl. NO. 07 WAH-
INGTON AVENUE,
Developments at the Tenth street
sewer outlet during the last day o
two have been interesting and of
value to the city in its contention tha
tiie cause of all the trouble there was
tiie imperfect work by the Rich Con
struciion Company. In making the
excavation for the concrete collar
wall which is to be built around the
new sewer outside the stone wan
large caviiy was found over and along
the new sewer and below the limbers
put in to constitute the tunnel i
which the sewer was laid.
It is clear that this cavity extende
along the sewer and a torrent of
water poured In through it until th
Ions of earth in sacks dumped into
the river outside I he wall checked it
As found, the cavity extended otii.v
short distance beyond the stone
wall on the inside, the remander 0
the opening being closed by the earth
falling down from above. The reason
why the cavity was not thus closed all
the way in that the stone wall was
immeditely above the sewer tunnel
and there was no earth above the
sewer to take the place of that wash
out by the river.
Thus further unquestionable con
flrmatiou is had of the theory that
the river broke into the city through
an opening made between the new-
sewer and the timbers left in the tun
nel By the minders. Some strong
evidence of this was discovered in-
ide the stone wall, and considerable
avlty being disclosed along the new
sewer by Contractor Fraser, when he
made the excavation for the inner
concrete wall.
Engineer ThiMlewood reported the
find to the mayor who summoned
member of the street committee, and
thorough inspection was made of
(he situation. With a view to pro
sentlng the facts effectively at the
proper lime and place.
To Repair Stone Wall.
As slated some days ago through
the efforts of Mayor Parsons, offi
cials of the . Illinois Central have
reed to do some needed work on
the stone wall at Tenth street, whlcn
needs looking after badly. Yesterday
Superintendent ('lift and Roadmaster
Clifford came down to look at the sit
uation and after consultation with lh
mayor and other representatives of
the city agreed to send down five
car loads of stone to be used in re
building the wall over the sewer. The
old wall will be taken down and a
solid packing of eartii will be put over
the sewer. The concrete euperstruc
ture will be rebuilt in a straight line
cuting out the set-off now In the wall
at that point.
