Ashland Telegram: A little piece of
rough hickory wood, four Inches In diam
eter and six Inches long, Is nil that con
fines iVm,fiK),ooi gallons of water In a gr'Ht
mine, Into which It poured several years
ngo. My the liberation of this volume of
water free and easy access will be gulne l
to some of the richest Veins of unihincite
coal ever discovered. The successful
placing of this little piece of wood marked
the comnletlon of the greatest feat f en
gineering In the history of eo,il mining.
It was 1he driving of the great Jeddo tun
nel, a hole seven feet by nine, through live
miles of solid rock, under two grent
mountains, for the purpose of tapping the
mines In which the water Imprisoned
thousands of tons of coal. In t'.ie valley
between the ridges of 1 luck nnd .leddo
mountains Is the richest roal liiisln In the
world. Hut one day In the early spring of
HOT work In this basin had Hiuldenly
stopped. A creek that flowed through tho
valley, swollen Into a torrent by the melt-
In snow on tho mountain tops, broke from
Its bed und poured Into the mines, flood
Ingtliemand driving themlners In (light to
save their lives. There was talk of pump
Imthem out, but tho expense would he so
great that, with no security against an
other flooding, It was deemed Imprac
ticable, J. It. Markel, a prominent coal
operator, of Jeddot conceived tho Idea In
IMHi of draining the Hooded mine by driv
ing a great tunnel from the Hutler valley
five miles under the mountains to the
lowest part In the center of the conl basin.
With the assistance of Mining Engineer
Thomns McNalr, of Ha.leton, plans wern
drawn and the Jeddo Tunnel company,
w'.th which the I'nlon Improvement com
puny whs Interested, whs formed to carry
them out. The outlet of the tunnel was
to bo In Butler valley, 17.098 feet from
the face or end of the mnln tunnel, and a
second tunnel, 9,888 feet long, was to run
from Markle's mines. The entire tun
nel would thus be live and an eighth miles
long. Work was begun early In IKftt, and
It was curried on from two different
slope by live rungs of men, The surveys
and caluclatlons were made with such
nicety that thero whs not more than an
Inch difference In the floors of the sec
tions. As tho itunnel neared completion
the work of boring a hole from the surface
through the Hooded workings und Into
the tunnel whs commenced. Ho accurate
ly was this done that the drill, when It
pierced the tunnel 4M feet below, broke
through the center of a. six-Inch clreto
drawn before the hole wa started. This
bore hole was 12 Inches In diameter, for
2TO feet, 6 Inches for the next 170 feet, and
4 Inches or th final 20 feet. This wat
done so that alio outflow could be regu
lated. Iron encased the drill as It went
downward, and when the drill finally
pierced the tunnel a. pieco of hickory ill
Inches long was driven Into the four-Inch
bore hole and plugged it. As soon as the
pipes ure removed and the plug withdrawn
tho water will flow out. A dllllculty was
encountered in retard to tho outflow Into
Hutler crock of the poisonous sulphur.
The. creek runs 'through u. prosperous
farming region, and tho farmers objected
to the pollution of It. Tho right of way
whs purchased from most of the farm
ers, but some would not soli, nnd whon
tho 'tunnel was finished they applied to
tho court for an Injunotlon to restrain tho
company from emptying tho mine waters
Into the creek. After threo months In tlio
court Judge ltlee, of AVIlkes-Harre, decid
ed that Iho company should empty tho
water into tho creek, provided they did
not do so 111 such quantities us to over
flow and dainugu tlie furm lands. This
tho company can do, owing to the
four-Inch bore holes, and they will In a
few days withdraw the plug and com
mence the work of drainage. It Is export
ed that It will take about three months to
empty the mines.

New York, Feb. II, The temper of
speculation at the Stock exchange to
day was bearish almost from start to
llnisli. There were several rallies, but
these only served to stimulate sales for
the abort account. Outside of the
(IraiiKers, Chicago (las and Sugnr, how
ever, trading was comparatively light.
The decline In the leading shares was
eiiuul to aal:v per cent., the lutter III
Northwest. St. Paul, Koek Island and
liurlini.'lon and gulncy yielded only
half a point or so. Sugar was pressed
for sale on rumors that a statement
was about to be Issued which would
mako tin unfavorable showing. Man
hattan sold olY Y to loO and closed at
loti'i. Tho Cordage shares were pressed
for sale and sold at the lowest prices
on record. Uepurts were In circulation
that an application was about to lie
made to put the company In the hands
of a receiver, but ollicluls stated that
they knew nothing of such a move, it
is probable that a considerable amount
of loni,' stock bus been forced out of
the bunds of persons unable to curry
the shares any lunger. Cordage yielded
Ha, preferred 2'i. and guaranteed "i

of ul per cent. Jersey Central and
Lake Shore were the only stocks wliicti
left oil' with net gains, and in these
cases the improvement wus only

to our patrons:
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their manv pat
rons thut they w ill this year hold to their usual custom
of milling SiRICTLY OLU WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry w eather many millers are
of the opinion that it is already cured, arid in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully threo
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to everv detail of milling has
rlaced Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
