Tbe C, & E train from Ya
quina failed toappear this morning
at Corvallis, due to a cave in tun
nel No. 3, which is the one nearest
Summit. Workmen were putting
in new timbers at a point 150 feet
from the west end, and while one
bent was being removed, the cave
came down from above. It is a
mass of dirt and rock ten feet thick
and extending entirely across tbe
tunnel. It is expected that the
damage can be repaired in time for
-tomorrow's trains. A special tiain
wa-j sent out with men aod applian

stantly to the mountain water sys

It is a greater number already than
tbe promoters of tbe water system
ver figured on. It is almost satis
factory condition, aod one that dis
credits those who t-o bitterly lought
; the enterprise. It vindicates those
who were afsniled and misrepresent
