THE DESERT LAKE.
Flow Of Water Forced From the Colo
RADIO to Salton Basin

~
RADIO to Salton Basin.
Los ANGELES. July IA party sent out
by the Southern Pacific from Ogilby last
week to find the source of Salton lake have
returned. The following dispatch was re-
ceived at the railroad office today:
Mr.. Carter arrived at $50 last night and gives
the following report: The water leaves the
Colorado river at point eight miles from Ell
Rio and flows through several channels from
four to six feet deep and from three to sixty
feet wide. 1t flows westward along the sand
hills on the line Of the old overland
stage route through Alamo Mucho station.
The channels at this station join, making q
stream 100 yards wide or more, and having
velocity of four miles an hour and gaining. It
was too deep to get the depth, but the old
slough at this point was formerly twenty feet
Deep This is about thirty-fve miles from the
river. We followed the stream two miles fur
Their in the direction of Indian Wells
The water is all the way from half q mile TO
two miles wide, and from two to four iset deep.
having velocity of two miles an hour. The
main channel passes Cooks Well, Seven
Wells, Gardeners station, Butte station,
then on to Almo Mucho, making the distance
ffty-two miles from the Colorado river This is
the point where it enters the desert for Salton.
The old stage route, with the exception of five
or six miles, is all covered with water. The
only way to reach this point is over sandhills
and mesa.
This settles the matter of supply con-
clusiyely.

@. p. II. TERMINUS IN CHICAGO,
Right OF Way Through the City Over an
Elevated Road.

CHICAGO, July 7.-Colonel L. C. Alberger,
one of the proprietors of the Lake Street
Elevated railroad, admitted in an inter-
view tonight that an arrangement had
been practically completed by which his
line would become the Chicago terminal
of the Canadian Pacific. This arrange
ment would give the Canadian Pacific a
right-of-way directly through the heart of
the city to the site of the pro-
posed big new union depot of
she Michigan Central and Illinois
Central on the lake front. The considera-
ton is not stated, but it is assumed that
the Canadian Pacific guarantees the bonds
of the Lake street company. Work on the
elevated has been at standstill for some
weeks, owing to the failure of its projectors

A SEMINOLE EXECUTION.

KANSAS CRY, July IA special to the
Journal from Tahlequah, l. T., says:
Umest, a full-blooded Seminole, was
executed yesterday at Waheka.
A month ago he quarreled
with another Indian, knocked him
senseless, and then chopped the body to
pieces with hoe. The Seminole council
tried and found him guilty of murder and
sentenced him to death. Yesterday
Umest was led to a fat rock,
his eyes not bandaged, nor was
he bound in any way. He sat
erect as though for photograph. Two
executioners were selected by lot, given
loaded rifles and at the word fired bullets
into his heart. The body was buried on
the edge of the council ground by the
council

NO ARMS TURNED IN.
The Peace Measure at Black Diamond q
Total Failure.

BLACK DIAMOND, July THE voluntary
disarmament was an utter failure today.
Captain Fife. of Company C, sent detail
to the depot to receive arms, but not a
single gun was surrendered. The reason
is that the miners are convinced that the
Oregon Improvement Company is not
acting in good faith, and has a great
number more arms than it profeses
to have at Franklin and they say that
they are not going to leave themselves de-
fenceless with an armed band of hostile
negroes within such short distance.
The mine has not yet been put in opera
ton. Several kilograms have passed be-
tween Superintendent Morgans and the
officials he has left in charge, and he init
mates that the miners have kept him
waiting and now he will let them wait
little while themselves.
