WHERE HAS MONEY GONE.

Special to The Sentinel.
Denver, Dec 29.-Investigations con
Quoted by Register Woodruff has re-
vealed the fact that although some
thing over 100000 had been approp-
rated by the legislature in the past
fifteen years for reservoirs in differ
ent parts of the state and all the
money had been spent, there was but
one reservoir in the state that con
tanned any water.
That is located near Palmer lake
Ell Paso county on Monument creek
There are other reservoirs in Cha
fee, Sagache and Las Animas coun-
ties, but there never has been a drop
of water in them.
The board has asked the state en-
gineer to make an examination OF
these reservoirs and make report
on them It Is the purpose of the
board as expressed at the meeting
today to see what has become of all
the money which was appropriated
for this purpose.
1t is said that there is no record ii
the state house of these reservoirs
ever having been built. Some o
them are said to be built wher'
there is absolutely no chance to ge
water to them.

ON the little bonus, and as long as he
takes this stand Nelson says he cannot
talk any business with him.
