IN POLICE CIRCLES.

The case against Red" GALLAGHER,
charged with violating the vehicle or
dinance. was yesterday dismissed be-
fore Judge Tanner upon motion of the
defendants attorneys, Irvine & Snow.
At the time the Offense was alleged to
have been committed there was an or
dinance providing that hacks and car
riages should not stand within twenty
five feet Of each other. This ordinance
was repealed on June % and the at
torneys for the defense asked for a
dismissal on the grounds that mas
much as the law had been repealed the
judge had no jurisdiction in the mat

assault and battery viii be held today.

William Evans was up before Judge
Diehl yesterday morning on the charge
of having lured 15-year-old Eliza Jones
away from her home. Evans, who is 81
years old. entered a plea Of not guilty
and his case was set for Friday. July
10. Some idea OF the seriousness of the
crime with which he is charged may be
gained from the amount OF bail re-
quired. His bonds were fixed in the
sum Of $1,000, in default of which he
was committed to the county jail.
A warrant was issued yesterday for
Dennis Golf, who, # is alleged. has al
most pestered the life out of Mrs. Hyde
for some weeks with his manifesto
tions of love. Golf was charged with
battery and the warrant was served by
officer Carlson. When approached by
the policeman Goff declared that he
was not the man and when he saw that
his identity was known to the officer
put up a fight and declared that he
would never be taken alive. After a
lively tussle Golf was handcuffed and
placed in the patrol wagon and will
face an additional charge of resisting
an officer when brought into court to-
day.
Harry Stevens and James Smith were

of no other way to get inside unless
they went over the fence and as crawl
ing under was less exertion they chose
the latter route. Judge Diehl informed
them that the new Jail was not quite
completed and as a term I'm the black
hole was too heavy a penalty for the
offense he would release them under
suspended sentence.

FARMERS GET
BEST OF DEAL
PaTiey's Canyon Commission
Gives Il, 424,240 Gallons.
MUCH GREATER THAN IN 1902
EXCHANGE OF WATERS WITH
CITY is DETERMINED.

A basis OF exchange OF Parley's creek
waters between the city and the farm
ers to the south OF the city for the sea-
son of 1903 has been determined by the
Pariey's canyon water commission. Of
which Land and Water Commissioner
Joseph MacKnight is a member. The
normal How Of the stream has been
gagged at 1l,424.2f0 gallons of water
every twenty hours. That win be
the basis upOn which the exchange Of
-SytfJers win be made. The decision is
decidedly in favor of the farmers, az
compared with the basis o. exchange
decided upon last year.
On three different occasions the COM
mission visited the canyon and meas
ured the water, as follows: June %,
2to4 second feet. or 13.33s,g2o gallons
per day. July z. 1853 second feet. or H..
1920 gallons; July 6, 1l.S1 second feet,
o. 3 635. $50 gallons for twenty
hours. The total decrease in the flow
or the stream for the week between the
first and last measurements was 4098,-
ls0 gallons, or an average OF S5,451
gallons per day.
MacKnight Enters Objection.
IL was over the strenuous objections
OF Commissioner MacKnight that Com
missioner Labrums motion prevailed
That the basis Of exchange be u.fz4, Z4V
gallons Of water per day. Commission
er Maeknght commended that the
stream has not yet arrived at its nor
nal Flow. as the rapid decrease in the
past week clearly indicates; because the
amount of water necessary to irrigate
2.0I9 acres OF land. as specified i'm the
contract, under existing conditions is
less than 100000 gallons per day. and,
board acted I'm an unfair manner to-
further, because the majority of the
wards the city i'm determining the nor
nal flow on July and in attempting to
compel the city 20 furnish 1,424,2 40 gall
Ions of water per day from July 2 to
Aug. IS. an amount he alleges, far in
excess or the amount which the farm
ere would receive during the period II
they had their full proportion of the
stream.
Last year the basis Of exchange was
a little less than 9.0O0.0O0 gallons per
day. The average basis OF exchange
Tor the past ten years has been 1885,
32e gallons per day. one year, during
that period the basis was 36,000,0 600 gall
Ions OF water every twenty-four hours.

DEGREE or u. VI. FOR COURTNEY.
The Glass OF 's3. Cornell University. at Its
Recent Reunion Did Him Proud.

Charles f. Courtney, the Cornell rowing
coach, Is not a college graduate, having
been a journeyman carpenter and an oars
man all his life, but he ls not to go,without
a degree At the recent reunion Of the
class of SO OF Cornell in Ithaca it WAS de-
cided that Courtney's services to the uni
versity were Of sufficient importance to
merit special distinction.
Cornell grants no honorary degrees, and
the 80 men decided that they would have
to give Courtney one themselves. To
the Hon. George G. Raynor. a well-known
Democratic politician and lawyer of Sag
Harbor, was intrusted the duty and honor
of fixing UP the old man" all right. Mr..
Raynor made a speech at the SO dinner
eulogizing Courtneys services and recount
ing their value to Cornell and then said
"By virtue of the authority invested in
me by the class OF 80, Cornell University,
and in view OF his long and distinguished
services to Cornell University in the pro-
fession and practice of aquatics. hereby
confer the degree Of b. NJ, summa cum
Iaude, upon Charles Eatemup Courtney,
and long may he wave. Down with Yale!"
Raynor was asked what B. NJ. meant.
He replied that he didn't know what it
would be in Latin, but that In English 1t
meant Bachelor OF Marines. The secre-
tary OF SO was directed to notify Courtney
OF the honor awaiting him, but he hash .

LETTERS THAT SHOULDN'T GO.
Folks Who write wish Well 10 Efforts TO
Make Them Recoverable.

1t is hoped by many people in New York
who correspond frequently with persons
and firms in Great Britain that Mr.. Hen
mixer Heaton, M. p, will succeed in his
effort to induce the English Government to
modify its ruling regarding the recovery
by the writer's of letters once posted before
they are delivered TO the addresses Great
Britain is one of the few count ries which
still clings 10 the p rinciple tina, a letter
once dropped into the post office is ire
coverable until it has been delivered To the
addressee. The other countries besides
Great Britain and her colonies are japan,
Haiti, the Dominican and Colombian TT
publics and Corea.
In this country II letter, after being post ed,
may be recovered before delivery by
going through certain iormalities. A blank
application must he filed out giving the
date hour and place al which the letter
was posted and enclosing an envelope of
the same size and color as that containing
the letter If this liz done and the applicant
is fully identified, the letter. provided it
has not left town, will he returned to the
writer. II it has started for its destination
the writer must pay the cost Of communi-
eating by telegraph or telephone with the
postmaster at the place of destination, as
well as postage for the return Of the letter
The law applies not only 10 letters, but 10
any documents or articles sent through the
mails.
In the case Of letters for foreign coun-
tries, save those mentioned, the formalities
are more complicated. The application
and identification, together with "A fac
smile of the address, must be forwarded to
Washington. If the letter has started
there must also go with these documents
the cost of cabling to the country of desti-
nation, and in any case money to pay the
return postage and the expenses of cor
respondence.
People are constantly posting letters and
other articles which they want TO get back.
As many as two and three such applications
are made every day, according to the
assistant postmaster here. Letters are
written in anger and regretted when the
writer cools off That is one source Of the
applications. Mistaken statements are
hastily written down and posted. Then
there ia the vast range Of "fool letters.
which 80 many people write and wish they
hadn't Then, again, there is all the hitleous
chain of events, comic and tragic, which
come from putting letters into the wrong
envelopes Mr.. Heaton efforts are heartily
indorsed in England as we'll az among people
here.
