Tribune. ‘The discussion on the Emperor Frederick’s diary 4s followed with the keenest interest here, as hav- ing important bearings on the future relations be- ‘tween the English and German courts. When it ‘Was supposed that the Empress Frederick had a hand in the revelations, great anxiety prevailed. Relations between the queen and the Emperor Wilitam are very strained, the kaiser having prac- Ucally refused to meet the prince of Wales at Nienna, and the queen baving hinted that she ts not burning to receive tl TAS a guest at ent in Eegland. The Kaiser's relations with mother had greatly improved when this new trouble arose, and he had ceased to tender his imperial autigrity in the form of threats. But the empress Deen unabie to disavow responst- bility for tue publication of the diary the scenes at court would have resembled those of mediaeval times. _Happliy the Empress Frederick was able to disavow responsibility, and she 1s apgry with he Deutsche Rundschan. The queen is also disturbed. Prince Bismarck 4s somewhat Vindictive toward the English court, as is shown by the publication of the ate Emperot William's secret counsel not to tell too much to the crown prince iest he betray Germany to the Haglish court, which is said to be French in sympathy. The allegation was" absolutely un- founded. ‘Prince Biswarck forgets that the queen is German by descent, German by m: ‘and German by all the associations she draws around her. ‘The unity of Germany was an old dream of the prince consort. The only foundation for Prince Bismarck’s allegations 1s that the queen was anxious, in order to prevent future wars, that Gerumany should deal tenderiy with France 1b 1871.

An Engincer’s Description of the De- fects im the Potomac Tunnel, Washington Correspondence Baltimore Sun. Mr. Geo. H. Coryell was assistant engineer of the Washington aqueduct for some time. He 18 a civil engineer,and camerhere from Hagerstown. Md., hay~ ing been previously connected in his professional capacity with various rallroad enterprises. He 1s said to be experienced aud capable, He was re Meved by Major Lydecker after the latter was assigned to the charge of the aqueduct because, according to bis own idea, he was too officious in guarding the interests of the Government and the people. Mr. Coryell makes the following state ment for the Sun: “The army engineers tn charge of the construc- ton of the Washington aqueduct,” sald Mr, Cor- yell, “cannot say they Were not frequently warned and given every chance to prevent the fraud which | was made possible by their culpable negligence. I | became connected with the work in October, 1884, I found ao pian in the office of the engineer in charge showing the actual conditions of tne work. ‘The men actually engaged in the prosecution of the work had no guide whatever, exept a prelimi- nary proiile of the tunnel. I began at once to pre- pare Working plans. T made a surface survey and then ran lines along the drifts, Had I notdoneso the ‘Work would Lave been in a Worse condition than 1t is.” For tue headings of the tunnel, with the dritts carried out on the original tines, Would not have counected. Ata point 148 feet east of the Thir- Wenth-street alr-shaft, if the drifts nad beee pro Jected upon the original lines, the headings have been over 21 feet apart.’ All this I corrected and then began the construction work. ‘The lint bulit under ‘my supervision was of the horseshoe variety.

I re the im of ‘the work, and was determined Lining should be sufiicientiy to wi stand the pressure of the water. 1 was in tunnel night and day.

I told Major Lydecker Uney should receive $125 a month instead of $75, Expert men, I told hii, could not be employed tor so little money. I shall never forget Major Ly- decker’s reply. He said: ‘1 do not want expert men. I would rather have people go down in the tunnel and learn the business.’ Soon after this he appointed an inspector at $60 per month. ‘This Was followed by the appointinent of BE. H. ‘Kirlin a8 chief inspector, I was ordered to confine myself to bojeing the Uunnel, and to leave the su- pervision of the lining to Mr. Kirlin. I protested against this treatment, not wishing to be respon- sivie for work done under the supervision of a ian not skilled in engineering work. I told Major Lydecker 1 thought only engineers should have the immediate supervision of engineering work. He paid no attention to my protest. I discovered not long after Mr. Kirlin took charge that the work Was being carelessly done. dragged Major Lydecker down into the {ie never seemed to care about personally juspecting the work, I showed him that the Joints Were not being banded, and gave him other evi- ences of bad Workmanship and the negligence of the inspector. ‘The result was that I was again placed in change of the ining, with Kiriin uuder jue. I had a great deal of trouble with him on ac- count of bis sore feet. He never wanted to go down in the tunnel because it hurt his feet to Walk along the rocky Dotiom.

Then the real trouble Degan. “This young officer determined to change the plan of the tunnel lining. At rst he concetved the buiiliant idea of putting iu what ts known as a@segmentai arch. ‘This consists merely of anarch at the Lop of the tunnel, leaving the sides and bot- tom uniaced. He proposed to try the segmental arch in the Rock Creek drift, At a point where the strongest possible lining” should be placed he intended to put in the weakest, ‘The pressure at Kock Creek would be seventy-six pounds to the square, tach. Tae enormous prosure was 40 be opposed by the seamy, rotten roc! which the drifts ure cut "I protested against this scheme. It was tried and found im- PFacticable, but not before estimates had been Sent im Dased on the segmental arch. It was therefore necessary to devise a ulntng which could be constructed within that estimate. ‘The semi- circular areh, with vertical side walls, was adop- ted. ‘The bottom was to be left unprotected. I tried to show that there were fissures In the bot tom of the cut as well as in the top aud sides, J urged that the Water would percolace through the fissures and in time Washington might well be called a city of springs. I was too officious, I pre- ‘sume, for I was relieved from auty. In the letter relieving me, Major Lydecker says: “I, not you, am Tesponsible ‘to the Government for this work.” I hope he will not endeavor to escape responsibility now, “The inspectors who were at work on the tunnel with me were removed soon after I was This, to me, seems significant, Since that thme fully 5,000 feet of lining bas been constructed, a great deal of At consisting of only two rows of brick, and much of it built upon the sides with the rock excavated from the tunnel.

When it is realized that 10,000,000 gallons of water Was to be turned loose in tive uicre vottomless shell the Army engineers were putting in, some idea can be formed of the horrible catastrophe which would have eventually Visited the city had the work gone on. Now it can be torn out and done over again.
