part OF representative OF tho United

day when bill for m Injunction was
hlcd In the Federal Court asking that
tho Denver. Northwestern & Pacific
railroad be restrained from construct.
ins It's line through Gore canon. The
suit is similar to tho one instituted
several days ago. which asked that the
right OF way OF the road be vacated.
This one Is a little stronger. II de.
mnnds speedy action to prevent the
road from getting into the canon.
The papers were served on Charles
]. Hughes. counsel for the road. last
night. A hearing In the matter has
been set for next Thursday before
Judge Moses Hallett.

fendant and various officials OF the
two companies are also included. The
bill is signed by Earl Cranston. United
States district attorney. and William
II. Moody. attorney general.
It is alleged that the government en-
Eineers had It in mind to make res
ervoir OF Gore canon rs early rs 1901.

lied. The value OF the situation as n
reservoir site Is set forth and 1t Is al

mia. Arizona. Utah and Colorado. $4,000
acres being In Colorado alone. A mil.
lion people could be maintained on the

could irrigate.
The road has three rights OF way
surveyed. It is claimed. one going
through Gore canon at an elevation
above the proposed dam. another
around Gore canon and n third through
the canon Mt the level OF the, river.
II Is claimed that the government
would be glad to have the road built
at the elevation above the dam.
