along the cliffs was clearly marked, as
every particle of soil and vegetation had
been swept away, leaving only the lines

| CHEAP AND FAULTY CONSTRUCTION.
CHICAGO, February 26 In converse
ton with Neaus reporter tonight con
cerning the Arizona dam disaster, L. B
Priest, an engineer of Phoenix, said tn
disaster was due to faulty construction
Engineer Bates, first in charge of tn
work, proposed to have the spaces be
tween the walls filed with concrete in
stead of loose rock as was done. Be
cause of its great cost sufficient cemen
was not used to make the wall an
foundation secure. Priest examined tn
dam last June, and says it was leanin
badly in the middle then. He assert
that the statements made as to the Coz
of the dam are erroneous, and that q
built it did not cost more than $3.50, ,00C

FILCHED SECRETS.
Newspaper Men Not the only Ones
who Get the News.


WASHINGTON, February 26.-The com.
mittee investigating how the newspapers
get their reports of the secret sessions of
the Senate are beginning to discover that
newspaper correspondents are not the
only ones who are aware OF what occurs
in the executive sessions. One of the
witnesses today testified that it was
frequent custom for prominent men
whose nominations were being contested
to establish themselves in the committee
rooms near at hand in order to receive
information from time to time of how
the fight was progressing behind the
closed doors. The day Morgan's nomi-
nation was up be had seen the present
Commissioner of Indian Affairs around
the Senate, and no doubt Morgan knew
what was going on. The query now is:
How do these men receive their iDfor.
nation, and if they should be kept
posted, why not the public also? Frank
Hatton, editor of the Post, when asked
what his Instructions to his reporters
were, replied: "To get everything going
on. If they are very successful they get
their salaries raised"

The merchants are paying 80 cents to 81

apart each way there will 1000 of them
go on an acre, and at two pounds
each that will make ten tons,
SO that the estimate is prob
ably not too large. At one
cent a pound that is an income of
$500 per acre for the crop. That beats
grapes and treads close on the heels of
the profits in oranges. 1t is great pity
that the profits of this industry go almost
altogether into the pockets of the
Heathen Chinee, while 80 many braipy
men OF Caucasian extraction are going

ing the construction of an international
railroad, to connect the American sys-
TENS with the South American, was

PUBLIC sentiment will be unequivo-
cally on the side of averting strike on
the cable system of this city. The in
convenience to the people would be very
great at this time. Strikes are in all
cases detrimental, and in almost all cases
disastrous to employer and employee. 1t
is therefore pleasing on all accounts to be
able to announce that the threatened
strike on the cable system has been
averted by mutual concessions on the
part of the men and of the officers of the
