APPROPRIATIONS BUSY
Repairing the Damage by the Late
 Flood.

The Appropriators Cana l company has completed arrangements for the repairing of it's big ditch and has start. ed a working camp near the Tempe bridge. The camp and the work of re . pairing the ditch is under the per sonal supervision of Henry Wilky.
 The estimate is that it will cost about S3600 to repair the canal prop crly and plans have been made for the necessary money. The directorate of the company was instructed at the meeting a week CT two ago to go ahead and do what was thought best for the repair of the ditch and the getting of water into it at the earliest moment. The present operations are pursuant to those instructions.
 It will be necessary to dig about 3009 feet of new ditch west of the Tempe bridge and it is expected this work will take not to exceed three weeks. And when the new work Is done it is believed the canal will be proof against any possible floods in the vicinity of the Tempe bridges.

SENATOR W. A. CLARK
Replies to an Arizona Joint State
 hood Advocate.

HerndOn & Norris, of Prescott. says the Journal-Miner are in receipt of a correspondence from Senator w. A. Clark, in which he notes the presence of MT. Murphy in Washington working diligently against jOinture. Senator Clark cncloses the following carbon copy of a letter he has just forwarded to Mark A. Rodgers. secretary of the Arizona Statehood association, Tucson. Ariz.:
 Dear Sir: I received your valued favor of the goth ultimo, with a copy of petition relating to the subject of joint statehood between Arizona and New Mexico. I note your state ment that sentiment in favor of joint Urc is growing. This does not ac- cord with the information which I received during the recent visit made
 to the territory of Arizona. I believe in giving consideration to the wishes of all parties and intend to look into this matter very carefully. With my present view I do not see any Yeason to change the attitude which I took at.
 the last session of congress- and that was to endeaVCr to defeat in the sen ate, witn all the ability which I could command, the proposition to force statehood upon Arizona coupled with
 New Mexico.
 "Very respectfully yours. "W. A. CLARK"
 The above letter brings forcibly to
 mind the old adage that "a friend in need is a friend indeed" and that is what w. A. Clark, of the United Verde 1 Copper company. is proving himself
 to be to Arizona.

DEAD IN BRIDAL CHAMBER.
The Bride Evidently Killed the
Groom, and Then Committed
Suicide.

Norfolk, Va, Nov. ia special
from Perguimans, N. c., says: A dou-
BILE tragedy is the sequel TO the wedding
OF pretty girl who was formerly Miss
Helen Hope and Randolph C. johnson,
who were married here In the
morning the couple were found dead
inNbed in their bridal chamber. In the
brides hand was pistol. Her hus-
band had been shot in the left breast,
the left temple and in the cheek. The
young wife had been killed by a bullet
wound in the head.
The killing and suicide, the tragedy
is generally interpreted as such, has
caused the greatest sensation here and
throughout this section of the state.
johnson and his wife were well
known. His bride was a beautiful girl,
ard the wedding was regarded as the
elimination of pretty romance.
A few persons here suggest that pos
sibly the bride and groom were killed
by a burglar, but circumstances show
that this theory is not tenable. The po-
lice are investigating, and believe that
some motive for the woman's act NAV
be discovered.
The coroner of this county will hold
an inquest

New York, Nov. l0-A campaign to
defeat Tammany Hall in the supreme
court and TO declare William r. Hearst
the rightfully elected mayor of New

was inaugurated at a crowded meeting
of the Municipal Ownership league
leaders here. AT its close Mr.. Hearst
said.
I'VE are going to fight to-day, to-

ENGINEERS SAY THE
CANAL IS FEASIBLE
Illinois Congressman Are Preparing
to Urge Prompt and Favor

THE TOTAL APPROXIMATE COST
$2S,OOO,O0O 70 $3O.OOO,OOO
From End of Drainage Canal to
Joliet the Greatest Engineering
Feht-nnms and Locks From JoI-
let 10 I iicu and DredEed Water
NyuN On 10 81. Louis.

Washington, Nov, l3,--Now that ten
tattye plans are under way to forttfy
the great lakes, members Of the Illinois
delegation in congress are preparing to
ask an appropriation for the building
Of i4-rOot ship canal from Chicago to
St. Louis.
In pursuance Of resolution intro
duced by Representative Lorimer, Of
Chicago, In the house a year ago last
winter calling upon the engineers Of
The war department for survey and
estimate of the cost of this project,
report has been made. The engineers
have found the canal a feasible en-
gineering proposition, and they have
estimated the cost at between $25, ,00O-
900 and $30,OOO0OO
Canal Cost by sections.
Dividing the canal into three sec,
lions, the approximate estimates are
rs follows: From the end Of the Chi
cago drainage canal to Utica, $4,000,
)00 from Utica to the mouth of the
Illinois river, $6,000,000 from the
mouth of the Illinois river to ST. Louis,
5000 600 to $S,o00.00O, Total approx
innate cost, $2S,00o. 900 TO $30,000,O00.
Men familiar with the situation are
Of the opinion that these figures are a
trihe high, and that the canal can be
dug for about $4,000, 900 This is only
81 GOO 900 more than the estimate of
the memoralists to congress for the
building of such a canal from Chicago
to the Mississippi, and $2,OO0,OOO more
,han the most recent estimate of the
sanitary district engineers.
The Engineering Problems.
While no new engineering problems
were discovered by the engineers in
compiling the estimates, they differed
slightly from previous estimates on
various phases Of the work. From the
end of the drainage canal TO Lake
Toilet. where excavations must be ma lie
largely through limestone similar to
that encountered in digging a part of
the drainage canal, is the greatest en-
glneering feat. From Joliet to Utica is
a sharp decline in the river bed, with
consequent rapid flow of water, and,
running through large drainage area,
gives rise to floods This section must
be controlled by dams and locks.
The lower Illinois river from Utica
to the Mississippi has such slight
fall and low river banks that it is sub
ject to two kinds of engineering treat
ment--dredging to the required depth,
and, whore possible, raising the water
level by dams,
From the mouth OF the Mississippi
river TO ST. Louis the engineers are of
the opinion that nothing short of
dredged canal will meet the require
ments of the case. Such a canal must
be supplemented by dam near Alton,
as has been suggested by other engi-
neers who have studied the problem.
