ARIZONA VALLEYS
TESTED FOR WATER
Two Reclamation Projects
Have Received Thorough
Government Examination
VARIOUS PLANTS ARE TESTED

Hvdro-economic work IN Arizona
was In the hands Of Mr.. sheldon X.
Baker. who made an investigation OF
the quality 81 the ground waters IN
the salt River valley and their prob.
nblo behavior after the new Irrigation
system now being installed % put in
operation. he also cNrriod on detailed
studies 10 the upper par Of the Salt
river basin 90 determine the source 81

stream and the probability ~ ite eco
nomicai elimination.
Attention was given. under the
reclamation law, 90 the consideration
Of the relative merits OF the two large
reservoir sites On this territory which
had been previously known and widely
discussed These are the San Carlos
site on Salt river. and the Salt river
site on sails river. the principal trlb'
utary OF che ella. The San Carlos site
was examined IN connection with the
surveys OF the Buttoa reservoir ate
I'M addition general examination was
made OF opportunities OF storing water
"a various parts OF the territory, and
OF the underground waters Of salt
River valley that may be- mhde avail
able BY pumping. The reclamation
work IN Arizona is under the charEc
Of Mf. Louis g, Hill, supervising engl.
neer.
The Salt river project involves the
construction ~ n dam 270 feet high
for the storage Of 100000 acre feet
OF water and Of power plants for
pumping N~sor FOR irrigation In the
lower valley During the year a water
works system was installed for tue
purpose Of supplying potable water
go the camp and town at ROoaeve.
The telephone line connecting che
hoadworks of the upper power canal
with the Arizona dam was completed.
The building Tor The cement mil was
lnlshod, the machinery Installed, and
the min put up Ia operation shout a
year ago. The phoenlx.Roosevelt roan
was lniHhed, tho power canal 90 the
mouth of The Verde located, and tne
cadaairal survey 81 the irriEablo lands
in Phoenix valley completed. The
contract for me dam was lot 90 J. NJ.

Complete tests Of the Irrigation
plants 20 salt River valley were car
rled on. These include tests OF steam,
steam electric hydro electric ana
gasoline plants. ranging So capacity
from 40 90 600 horsepower The data
obtained, together with the work on
the underground flow which q al
ready completed, will furnish tho has
o. for he design OF the pumping plants
which VIII form part ct the project.
The reservoir site for the San Carlos
project is ON The white Mountain
Indian reservation Ia Arizona, nolow
the mouth Of San Carlos creek, on
CHA river. Observations Of river flow
and sediment have been takoD during
the past year and reconnaissance sur
yeya have been made OF possible revcr'
volr sites on the upper ella. A de-
tailed topographic map has been made
OF the dam site. and a contour map
partly made OF the reservoir.

Special Cable Despatch 10 TIKI SCN.
BERLIN, Nov. 1.-THE performance of
Strauss opera Die Fledermaus" at the
Central Theatre yesterday was prevented
by what was probably an unprecedented
mishap. The theatre was rowde with
an audience patiently waiting the beginning
of the performance, when suddenly torrents
Of water began to pour over the stage.
Che flow of water increased rapidly until
the torrent poured over the footlights into
ere orchestra.
The musicians fied'hastily and the occu-
pants of the front stalls followed their
example. The remainder Of the audience
stood up in amazement. Meanwhile, pieces
Of scenery began floating about and a harmed
shouts and suppressed screams were heard
in the wings. The audience was becoming
dangerously excited when the manager,
who was drenched from head to foot, came
to the front and announced that the food
was abating but that the scenery had been
so damaged that it would be impossible to
give the performance and that the money
paid for seats would be returned.
The cause OF the deluge was simple
enough. An inexperienced fireman had
turned on the emergency hosepipe n the
time consumed in ascertaining the exact
cause of the trouble was sufficient 70 cause

President Roosevelt talked French. where

quence, but the writer gained In not losing
a word OF tho Prcsident's phiiippio.
The writer says il Ia necessary for his
readers. In order to understand the hatred
and contempt President Roosevelt processes
Tor moneyed men, to remember that he
always makes two distinctions. For those
who enrich themselves. even enormously,
and. at the same time benefit the country
by ~endowing it with a new industrial force
Mr.. Roosevelt has the fullest indulgence.
In this class the President named James
j. Hill, pointing out to tho writer on a map
Hills railroad construction.
The President reserves all his hatred
and disgust for those whose only aim in
life is to pile millions Upon millions for
their own sole satisfaction and personal
enjoyment. These money plotters, through
immora trusts. dredge all the nations
money. They are the ones that must be
destroyed. Briefly. President Roosevelt
affirmed that be would break them. The

says that MIR. Roosevelt made hin promise
not to write a direct interview. He was
introduced TO the President by NJ. Jusserand,
the French Ambassador
The separation question has taken a new
phase this week through an issue raised
al to whether a dioo esan association Of
worshippers organized by Cardinal Lecot.
Archbishop Of Bordeaux. is an association
cultuelle under the separation law. Arch
bishop Lecot says it is. not. He says it is
an organization under the association law
OF 1901. NJ. BRAND. Minister Of Education
and Public Worship. says it is under both
laws. and he read documents in the Chamber
OF Deputies to prove it.
II Archbishop Lecot's association is under
the separation law he will be l trouble with
the Pope. who has forbidden such. II il
is not under that law M. BRAND will not
recognize it. which makes 10 q difficult situa-
ton. Archbishop Lecot says his s~ssocia-
ton 10 not for the purpose of exercising
worship. but merely to provide sustenance
for priests who conduct worship. The
critics Of the Archbishop quote h story
Of q mar who was not a cloth merchant
but gave cloth to people who gave him
money.
Some assert that this development makes
the whole question more acute just at a
time when the Government. by an attitude
Of moderation. seems to be smoothing
matters somewhat. Others. including some
friends Of the Church. profess hope to find
in Archbishop Lecot's argument a way
out Of the whole difficulty.

THINKS PEARY WILL SUCCEED.
hut Nansen ADV Ocates Another way In
which ca Reach the pole.
.p,otor Cabl, Dsspo,cs 10 THE SUN.


LONDON, Nov. I7.-Fridtjof Nansen, the
Arctic explorer, in a magazine article re-
viewing Commander Peary's sledge journey
across the polar ice, says such achievements
are always more difficult than sledg ing on
the Arctic coasts or on the inland ice OF
Greenland.
Neverthe less. he expresses the opinion
that an experienced sledger like Peary.
with adequate equipment. especial lily good
dogs. will eventually accomplish the journey
across the ice to the pole. hansen advo-
Gates another way, namely, drifting across
the north polar basin in a ship enclosed in
ice in the same way as the Fran. and adds
that Peary's last discovery of drifting ice
in the north brings out still more clearly
the great advantage OF this method.
The thing to be DONE" he says, SIS to
send a ship TO Bering Strait. Let her
penetrate as far north IA possible in the
region between 100 and 10 degrees west
to northwest Of the coast of Alaska. Let
her be frozen in there and borne along
with the ice. We may be confident that
she will be carried across the north polar
region far to the north of the Fram's route
and across the m OFT interesting part Of
what is still the unknown. After five or
six years, perhaps a little less, she will be
carried out again on this sid of the pole
between Greenland and Spitzbergen."
