Water Ports" made The Eagle a pleasant
call last night, and speaks enthusiastic
ally of that favored section, the coast
country of Texas" Speaking of the great
subject of irrigation by congressional aid,
he said: I'm our legislature recently were
two bills, one pertaining to drainage and
one relating TO irrigation, thus showing
the vast magnitude of that great state
Both were necessary legislation and they
Were referred to the same committee and
both became laws.
''Our Texas delegation said Mr.. Slos-
son, propose in this Congress, and later,
to stand by the delegates from the twelve
states and territories that are asking that
the government, which owns the arid
lands, should not now stop its splendid
system of providing homes for the home
less, but give the same generous aid to
redeem these millions of acres of land for
settlers that is now given so literally to
improve the waterways Of the nation"

the federal government TO establish an
academy for training consuis, as fol-
lows:

development OF that commerce than the

HOUSTON HAS NEVER HAD 1T
Erroneous Reports Circulated Re
garding Previous Sessions.

1t has been said that Texas has already
had one session of the Mississippi
Commercial Congress, but this is a mis-
take. A session OF the Deep Water Con-
gress'' was held at Galveston; also at
Omaha, Denver and Topeka, but no ses-
sion of this Congress has ever been held
south of st. Louis. and the strong Hous-
ton delegation which is asking for the
session of 1900 to be held at that new
seaport, is supported by the entire Texas
delegation. What they offer is TO take
the entire delegation and visitors who
meet with them next year, on steamers to
see all the deep water ports on the Gulf
Of Mexico, so that the representatives of
twenty-five states and territories can
know from personal observation how vast
are the navigation Improvements that so
intimately affect the future of the entire
northwest commercially. IT will be trip
to be remembered for a lifetime, both of
pleasure and of information.

RECOVERING FROM WINTER.
Colorado Man Says 1t Was the Worst
In Years.

]. 3. Simpson of Meeker, Colo. who
came 10 the city yesterday. says that
portion of Colorado is recovering from
the worst winter ever experienced. Mr..
Simpson is a rancher and cattleman
who settled in the west a few years
ago, but has determined to make Salt
Lake City his home.
In speaking of Meeker, he says that
a gigantic irrigation scheme is to be
launched this season, which will bring
into cultivation nearly $4,000 acres. The
water is TO be taken out of the White
river, and will entail the expenditure
of many thousand dollars. At the head
of the company are the Bear Bros.
two well-known cattlemen of Lead
vile, also many local men are connect
ed in the matter.
There is strong talk of a railroad be-
ing built from Denver up the White
river valley. having its objective point
as Salt Lake City. The coal mines of
that section of Colorado are attracting
attention upon the part of capitalists.
and this. aside from the great livestock
and farming resources of the country
through which the line will pass. has
led TO the belief that the road will be
built in the near future.

MERCHANT kA|FFNG'S ARREST
STOLEN GOODS WE'RE FOUND AT
HIS STORE.
Confessed That He Purchased Them
From Miles, the Supposed Thief
Demanded Apology and Arrested.

Detective Sheets swore to a complaint
yesterday, charging A. d. knitting, pro-
prietor of the Chicago grocery store,
with receiving stolen goods, the action
being the outgrowth of the box-car
robbery on Saturday night. AS stated
yesterday, Miles. the supposed thief,
disposed of his plumber at knitting s,
saying he received So for it The Off
GERS went TO the store. and knitting in
dignantly denied having the goods. or
having any knowledge of them. Mean
While, Manager Papworth OF Knight &
Co, toswhom the goods We're billed had
found two cases of compressed ham
behind the counter, addressed to his
house. knitting then admitted buying
them, it is said, but refused to say Of
whom he had purchased them until the
officers threatened him with a term in
the penitentiary. He is said to have
then stated that he had bought other
lots of the same man, Miles.
Knitting afterward sought to have
the detective apologize, and threatened
to put the latter on the carpet before
Mayor Clark. No apology was made,
but quite the contrary; a warrant was
issued for the merchants arrest.
His bail was fixed at $3.50, which was
furnished by acquaintance, and the
prisoner was released.
