CONSPIRACY TO DAMAGE ROAD
David II. Moffat Charges Government
Officials With ColIusion With
New Century Company.

Denver, June 3.-Charges that gov
ernment officials have been in col
msion with the New Century Light &
Power Company in the attempt 10
drive the Moffat road from Gore canon
have been made in affidavits which
will be filed in the federal court to-day
by c. j. Hughes, Jr., attorney for the
Moffat road.
Specific accusations are made by Da-
vid H. Moffat himself against A. l.. Eel
lows, formerly district engineer OF the
government reclamation service, and
against others in the government EN-
ploy. In all there are eighteen am
davits, covering more than 1000 type
written pages.
After recounting the history of the
Moffat road, Mr.. Moffat says: THE act
of withdrawal of the Gore canon land
was not for the benefit of the govern
ment, but for the benefit of the New
Century company. When the railroad,
after it had been notified of the with
drawal, asked for a hearing, A. l.. Eel
lows objected to the railroads side be-
ing heard at all"
Further connection of Mr.. Fellows
and the other government officials In
the alleged conspiracy against the MOI
fat road is asserted by MIR. Mofat
wnen ne says. Inc government Wds
induced to take action toward with
drawal of this land by the New Cen
tury company after it had been de
| feated in a contest with the railroad
and acting upon and through certain
persons connected with the reclama
| tion service"
Mr.. Moflat further asserts that the
government officials who have recon
mended the Kremmling reservoir site
and the segregation for it of Gore
canon, never surveyed or measured
the proposed route, but acted in theii
recommendations solely upon the re
ports of the engineers of the New Cen
tury company, whose accounts were in
correct. inaccurate and garbled.
Thus far, according 10 Mr.. Moffat
S5,500000 has been spent in construc
ton of the Moffat road and the taking
away of the canon. for the Kremmline
reservoir, needless and useless
scheme" would entail the expense ol
100000 by the railroad.

rounds them, as they were taken from
