In response to query as to how
the company was succeeding in its
work OF storing water, Thomas Berry,
the engineer in charge OF the Great
Plains Storage company's extensiTe
works, said: I'VE are certainly Seli
pleased with the results attained thus
far, as they have exceeded our ex-
pectasions. The unavailable capac-
ity OF the west basin Of the Queen is
all filed, and on Monday at p. m.
the water commenced running
through the channel connecting it
with the east basin. AS the unayail-
able capacity Of the latter is small, |
figure that by tonight the water will
be up to the draw OIL line of the out
let structure. We have had splen-
did run OF reservoir water and the
ditch has handled the volume nicely.
1t looks now as. the entire reservoir
system will be filed even sooner than
was anticipated. Lamar Sparks.

Melon Growers neef.

A meeting of the marketing COM
mittee OF the melon growers associ-
alton OF the Arkansas valley was held
in Rocky Ford Monday Seven men,
bers Of the different associations were
present. Reports from the several
associations were quite favorable.
Some points will have melons ready
for the market by August 10th.
The presumption is that the yield of
cantaloupes will be large and each as
socation will have cantaloupes enough
to fill the contracts made with the
Western Poultry & Game Company,
of st. Louis.
There are various reasons why it
will be very much to the advantage
of all cantaloupe growers who expect
good prices for their melons to be in

sociation. Arrangements have been
made whereby two men at least are
to be sent east to look after the mel
on growers interests as soon as the
shipping season commences. The
estimated expense of the parties sent
will not exceed one cent per crate OF
the valley output.
A committee of three was appointed
to be known as the executive and aud
iting committee, one of whom is to

A STEAMER BEACHED.
Sunk in Twenty Feet of Water to
Save Her From Burning.

NEW YORK, March 1.-THE Mallory
line steamer Leona, which sailed last
evening for Galveston with a large pas
senger list and a cargo consisting prin-
cipally of sugar and coffee, lies beached
on the Jersey flats, near Ellis Island.
When approaching the Narrows smoke
was discovered coming from the for
ward hold and the ship was put about
and returned to the pier in East River.
There the passengers were disembarked
and efforts made to extinguish the fire,
which was among the sugar. No i'm
preston could be made upon the flames,
and to save the docks and nearby
shipping the steamer was sent to the
Jersey flats, where she was sunk in
twenty feet of water.
The damage to the steamer is esti-
mated at $4,000. but no accurate esti-
mate of the loss on the cargo can be
made at present. The ,Leona has been
an unfortunate craft. On May 10,

lowe, the actress who died ON the stage
of the Knickerbocker Theater on No
vember 9Th. while playing the part OF
Polly Love in THE Christian. died to-
night at the home of her daughter in

Mrs Marlowe's death was due to
dropsy, but it is believed that grief

fastened the end. She was 81 years old
and was an actress of ability. At the
time of her daughters death she was
playing with j. K. Hackett in 'sThe
Tree of Knowledge" at the National
Theater Washington. She retired from
the stage Immediately afterward.

and inconvenience to the German mer-
chants and consumers that is not war;
ranted by the real danger involved.
The point is made that for absolute
protection against the scale, the law
as it stands is very defective. and the
chamber further argues that there is
very small danger of German orchards
being affected by American fresh or
dried fruit which is brought in for con-
sumption likely to come in contact i'll
any way with the German trees
Similar ground is taken against the
exclusion of American hog products.
The report frankly states that no case
of trichinae poisoning has ever been
traced to American pork, and that the
danger of such poisoning from sailed
