Show DRILL HOLE ALLOWS GOOD WATER FLOW Ontario Tunnel Work Assumes Very Interesting Stage at .Present Time. m HOLE POUIUXG FORTH BIG VALORS Safe Ground Ahead of Dril't Should It Be Necessary to Drive Ahead. A telephone message fmm Park City on Tuesday announced that tho diamond drill hole which the management has sent from the parallel drift to the main tunnel Is still open, and thnt In thu neighborhood of S00 gallons of water r minute are pouring pour-ing from the same. Superintendent Williams, Wil-liams, of tho Ontario and Daly West companies, was In this city yesterday. ! When asked regarding the report, he stat-I stat-I ed thai the figures given are about cor-tect, cor-tect, and when naked as to his opinion regurding the significance of this How. he stated that while it certainly looked encouraging, tho management had been disappointed so mnny times that he wanted want-ed to wait a bit longer before giving his opinion definitely. This report also had It that the management man-agement had sent a diamond drill hole Into tho territory directly ahead of the face of this parallel drift, and that this drill had gone a distance of seventy feet in ground aa solid as the company could wish for. The significance of this fact Is th?.l In case tho management -will be compelled to continue this drift, the work can be done with tho knowledge that 11 is absolutely safo, and that the ground will hold against the tremendous pressure incident to the pent-up -waters In the main tunnel. It will be understand that this parallel drift to the main tunnel Is about iwrnty-fivo iwrnty-fivo to twenty-seven feel distant from tho tunnel Itself. Heretofore tho drill holes sent into tho tunnel from the drift have clogged up after allowing a flow of water for various spaces of time The now hole, one and a half Inches lu diameter, diam-eter, is allowing such a generous flow of water that those who have been watching this work In tho Ontario fool more than encouraged, and believe that this particular partic-ular portion or the drift Is the correct place for additional and larger holes which eventually should bring out all the waters held back It was this point that Mr. Williams was not yet willing to concede, con-cede, preferring to watch the conduct of this new hole for a. while first. The first cave-in In the Ontario occurred oc-curred In March, 1905, since which time the company has hcen waging a desperate des-perate fight with nature under very Irving Irv-ing and dangerous circumstances.
