There is still left margin of seven feet for the water to climb be- fore il could flow over the top of the dam. thing that it is intended it shall not do. The sheer side of the dam faces the flood and arches up stream. At each end there is q gate house with machinery for opening the gates at the battcm. Tha height of the structure from bed rock is 247 feet.
 1t should have been mentioned in connection with the estimated cost that the figures include the building of a bridge across the top of the dam. for it's construction would put the pres ent Globe-Payson road many feet un- der water. 50 that there would be no place in miles where the river and the canyon could be crossed.

DISTRICT COURT
Grand Jury Decides That Chas Bauer
 Is Nct Murt erer.

The grand jury yesterday presented two reports. The first contained in Gictments against Mort T.. Hackney, John Miller and Thomas Grady for bur glary. John Miller fer grand larceny. J. Manning. held for burglary, was dis charged. An indictment was found against one person not in custody. In the case of Charles Bauer. held for murder in having shot and killed Charles kinstler near Mesa last win ter. was discharged. At the time of the killing Q coHoncr's jury eXonerated Bauer, but the next day he was given a preliminary examination and held to the grand jury. Nobody believed at the time that he would ever be convict ed, yet the charge was such a serious one that it was thought better to have it investigated in the district court. Bauer said that the killing was done in defense of his wife, upon whom kinst- Ter was making an assault. Kinstler had been following Mrs. Bauer for a long time, until the neighbors talked about it. Bauer was the last to hear of it. One Sunday morning he caus- ed word to be taken to Kinstler that he would be away from home that day. He concealed himself in. closet in q room where his wife was sitting. kinst- Ter arrived in d short time and attemp- ted an assault. Bauer remained in the closet long enough to convince himself that there was no collision between his wife and I<instler. Then Kinstler died.
 When Bauer was told yesterday that he was free man his eyes filled with tears and he shock the hands of the grand jurymen who remained in the room.
 The prisoners who had been indicted the day before were brought in to plead, but that ceremony was contin- ucd until this morning.
 The most important matter before the court was the trial of the divorce suit oI Mrs R. A. Brown against T. J. Brown. The dafendant resisted the suit and hfnted lnat lie was laden with information that would enlghteu the count regarding the character oi Mrs Brown. It was supposed that this in formation would be very salacious, SO it was resolved to exclude the general public Those, or at least some of those who were privileged to remain were disappointed.
 The fight was over a child. The wife had alleged the defendants failure to support her. Tn his answer this ale gation was denied. He said that she was not the kilI of woman she ought to be and thaa ong her many short comings dissipation Of his
