The crew has only been able to row in the tank once, on Wednesday. The increased weight of water in the tank coming upon the cement foundation instead of upon the zinc floors, started a leak. Men were set to work immediately, putting in a firm foundation in place of the sand and brick under the tank floor, and when new cement has been laid over this the tank will be perfectly strong and water tight.
