Beaver. Utah. Feb. 14.-In the big
water suit, Judge Bartch rendered a
decision giving plaintiffs a reasonable
amount of water to irrigate all the
acres Of meadow, pasture and farming
land, claimed IN evidence, but this de-
cree only applied to parties in the suit,
and that defendants would be re-
strained from interfering with that
amount of water; that is, plaintiffs
would be allowed such an amount Of
water as is necessary, by economical
use, TO irrigate the lands on which the
water was heretofore used by them,
A transcript of the trial is to be

MORE LIGHT DISCUSSION.

Discussed BY the Various Conn
Dittees Last Night.

Members Of the city council met last
night in the Joint building and in ca
pacity of members of committees
Wrestled with the various questions
which win come up at Tuesday nights
session.
The Improvement committee met
early in the evening to discuss the
matter of height of wires which Will
be strung by the Citizens company
f. F.. Rich, of the new corporation,
was present, but owing to the absence
OF representatives of the telephone
company, it was decided to wait until
Monday evening next and invite all to
be present.
Members of the enrolment commit
tee struggled with the annual report
question up to the time that the COM
mlttee OF the whole went into session
on the lamp district ordinance, with
president Mccormick in the chair.
Mr. Young said that in the matter
Of the ordinance pending. it vas ex-
pected that some opposition would de-
Velop. In talking with a great many
parties, however, he had failed to find
any who We're strongly enough opposed
to the new method of providing for
illumination to go into court and con-
test. Mr.. Young believes that if pos
5i5le, the matter ought to be judicially
determined as soon as possible. and an
effort made to cause proceedings to
be instituted before the supreme court
as soon as the levy is made. He was
not prepared to state definitely, but
believed that if the case was submit
ted to the supreme court and a state
ment of the Importance of the case
made, it could be heard perhaps on
Feb % The question Of costs and attor-
ney'6 fees was incidentally alluded to by
Mr.. Young who remarked that per-
hapS. in view of costs following the
Judgment, people were Chary about
engaging in friendly suits.
Questioned as to the validity Of the
law under which this ordinance is
drawn, and in reply to the suggestions
of members that there might be a
possibility Of the courts passing on the
measure as they did in the matter of
the sprinl6lfng tax, Mr. Young replied
that while the law on the lamp dis
trict question is plain, there was no
SHADOW Of authority for the ordinance
creating the sprinltIing Sax. Continu-
ing MI Young said that attorneys
generally agreed that the measure was
a legal one.
Other eouncilmen were heard on the
matter and it was agreed that the
ordinance shall pass.
The prisons committee held a Short
but uDeYentful session early in the
evening.

The provisions Of the agreement
which the representatives of the west
ern trunk railway lines have proposed
in the advance in rates on west bound
passenger business will go into effect
on Feb. 10, says the Denver Times.
The Rio Grande, the Rio Grande
Western. the Union Pacific and the
Gulf have failed to sign, and as the
time is drawing near, Chairman Cald-
we'll is making an effort to bring
about unison among the lines for an
immediate settlement of differences.
For the past two or three days mes
SageS have been flying over The lines,
and last night, Mr.. Caldwell started
for Denver, wiring TO have rooras en-
gagged at the Brown for meeting to
be held tomorrow. He Will be met in
Omaha by Mr.. LomaX of the Onion
Pacific. and Mr.. Francis Of the Eur
Hngton. He has wired for Mr.. Ben
nett of the Western to be here and
wires that MI. Lomdx and Mr.. Fran
els will come also. So far as can be
learned. it seems as if the only thing
IN the way now Of reaching a settle
ment is the differences between the
Western and Union Pacific on the div
ision of Utah business. a regular
meeting of the association had been
called to meet in Denver on Feb. %,
but this meeting has grown out of the
emergency of the occasion to settle
the matters before Feb. 10 1t may
not be that the meeting Will be held
tomorrow as a message was received
this morning from Mr.. Lorna1, saying
he could not be here before Friday or
Saturday. Mr.. Bennett started from
Salt Lake last night. Mr.. TrueSdale
of the Rock Island is taking a deep
interest in the matter and is disposed
TO withdraw the boycott from the
Union Pacific.
While the representatives Of the
lines of the association are in Denver
it is not improbable that an effort will
be made to have the headquarters 10
Gated In this city. General Passenger
Agent Semple Of the Gulf said today
that the line would sign the associa-
ton agreement on one condition and
that is that headquarters are to be To-
Gated here.
