WATER RIGHTS IN THE RESER-
WALTON.
Walker River, Dutchman, Rose and
Cottonwood Creeks Allotted By
Drawing to Settle Disputes

CARSON, New, Nov. 15.-When
State Engineer Thurtell opened his Of
flee at the noon hour on the day of the
Walker River Indian reservation open
ing, ht found a mob of mining men at
the door seeking to file water right
claims upon the four principal streams
in the reservation.
He required them TO form in line
and their applications were receiv, d
in turn but this plan caused so much
dissension among the applicants, all
of whom were on hand at the same
time, that he arranged with them 10
draw by lot for the rights.
This has been done, with the result
that r. A. Faulkenburg secures he
prior right to the waters of Dutchman
Creek; A. j. Newman and + l.. Wildes
got the prior right on Rose Creek
w. p. Pierson on Cottonwood Greek,
and A. II. Mayne on the Walker river.
If the reservations towns located on
these streams grow as rapidly as ex-
pecfed, the rights to the water will be
worth many thousands of dollars.

REFUSES TO PAY THE CITY FOR
BRIDGE.
Nevada Transit Company Repudiates
Contract With Reno and Claims
County Owns Structure.

RENO, New, Nov. 15.-Claiming
that the county and not the city built
the bridge across the Truckee river
over which its line passes the Nevada
Transit Company, owning the Reno
street railway system, is refusing to
pay into the city treasury one-tenth
tho cost of the structure as it agreed
to do when it obtained its franchise.
The city has instructed the legal de-
partment to bring suit unless payne mt
is made at once, and suit that will
make interesting disclosures will be the
result.
The contention recalls some interest
ing history. which has never been
published. When the Transit Com
pany begun the construction of its
system in Reno it found that the city
bridges across the river which cut
midway through the city, were too
light to hold up its ears. It's agents in
the legislarue, therefore, secured the
passage of an act authorizing the
county of Washoe, in which Reno is
situated, to build a costly cement
bridge across the river on Virginia
street, and further authorizing the
county commissioners to allow the
Transit Company to use the bridge
at an annual rental not to exceed i
per cent of its actual cost. The bridge
was built and the Transit Company
then induced the county commissioners
to give it the right to cross for a
period of fifty years at rental of
few dollars year. 1t then repudiated
its agreement with the city and claims
that the county owns the bridge and
that it has permit from the county
to use it.
This smooth work of the company
saved it about $4,000 or more that
otherwise would have had to be ex-
pended for bridge and allows it to
use a costly public utility practically
without cost.
The city will contend that inasmueh
as the bridge is located within its cor
porate limits it belongs to the city
even though the county built it.

Last evening at about 700 O'Clock
at Montello a freight train became I'M

Many conflicting stories are told by

THEFTS AMONG THE
RAILROADERS
MANY CASES OF PILFERING OC-
CUR ALONG THE ROUTE.
It Is Thought Organized Gang of Cor
man, Roberts, Sevner and Will
hams Stripe Exists.

A series of Robberies which have oc-
CURED along the line of the Oregon
Short Line between Sparks and Ogden,
says the Nevada Forum, has led many
to believe that an organize d gang Of
thugs is operating in the vicinity.
The gang is supposed to be of the
same stripe as German, Sevener,
Roberts and Williams, whose capture
and execution for the murder of Jack
Welch about two years ago. after Il
series of robberies, caused that kind
of depredations to practically cease
for some time. Those men were
plying their graft of committing
robberies between Lovelock and
Winnemucca and murdered young
Welch on freight train after rob-
bing him of what money he had in
his possession.
1t has long been the opinion of
those who took an active interest in
the case that ali of the gang which
was operating at that time were not
captured. The day after the murder.
a suspicious looking character was
arrested at Wadsworth by Deputy
Constable Hoover. The man was
armed with wicked looking revol-
yer. which he attempted to use on
the officer at the time of his arrest.
The suspect was turned loose for
want of sufficient evidence, but a few
days afterward his description was
received by the Wadsworth authorities.
He wac an ex-convict and was
wanted in Chicago for burglary
committed some months prior to that
time.
1t is possible that this man and
such others as are supposed to have
escaped the officers at the time of
the Welch murder are again at their
old tricks, after having been forced
from their hiding places "below the
dead line' in San Francisco by the
recent earthquake.
In Carlin a few days ago when
west bound passenger train No.
was ready to pull out of the yards,
a man entered the train and made an
attempt to steal a grip belonging 30
one of the passengers. He was de-
tected in the act and turned over to
Deputy Sheriff McAdams. The man
arrested either was, or pretended to
be, a deaf mute. He made his escape
from the officers and has not since
been apprehended.
On the same train Conductor Conn
deposited his grip in one of the cars
ard went about attending to his dut-
he found it had been stolen. In it
we're the tickets of all the passen-
gers, which are kept in the custody
of the conductor, and Mr.. Conn suf
fered no little Inconvenience from
the loss. He spent several hours af-
ter his arrival in this city issuing
duplicate tickets to be forwarded in
the place of those stolen.
On the next trip into Carlin Brake
man c. j. Bertrand, who runs over
the division with Mr.. Conn, made an
extensive search in the vicinity of
that town hoping to recover the grip
and papers AT haystack on a
ranch about one mile west of Carliu
he found a cache of Havana cigars
which had been stolen a few days
before when a box car was burglar
lied in the Carlin yards. Mr.. Bert
rand notified the authorities of his
find and the goods are now in the
hands of the officers.

DYNAMITE CHARGE:
EXPLODES
INSTANTLY KILLING FOREMA1T
CLEARY.
Frightful Accident on Rock Cree.
Where Western Pacific is Being
Constructed.

RENO, Nov. 15-The remains of
James Cleary, a foreman for Core,
Brothers,. Western Pacific contractors,
who was torn to pieces by dynamite
explosion, on the line of the Western
Pacific in Plumas county two days ago,
passed through Reno last evening on
their way to Cutler, Ia, where he for
merly lived and where his widow now
makes her home. Cleary had been en-
gagged on Western Pacific work for sew
eral months and had charge of blast
ing crew during his last days.
According to a man who came in
from Chilcoot today, Cleary and his
crew started to blow down a large
cliff to make room for the roadbed
They placed twenty or thirty charges
of dynamite, and as they were COM
pleting the work charge prematurely
exploded as Cleary was setting it. He
was hurled Iorty or fifty feet and
frightfully mangled by the concussion
and the rocks that struck him. He
was dead when picked up moment
later by his fellow workmen.
Men who were working near Cleary
were Knocked down and injured but no
other person was killed.
valisss belonging to railroaders were
stolen AID rified, and strops, razors
and other articles of value were taken.
The valises contained mostly unlaun-
dried clothing and this was abandoned
by the thieves near the scene of the
crime.
On Conductor Knowles train re.
Gently passenger suffered the loss
of a suit case containing snit of
clothes and other articles of value.
He first discovered his loss When tho
train was pulling into Beowawc.
In none of these cases has The
guilty party been capture ami it is
the opinion of many that the work is
being done by an organized gang of
thieves who are working along the line
of railroad between San Francisco and
Ogden.
Several days ago Mr.. Clapp, the
Southern Pacific division freight and
passenger agent, caught man in
the act of stealing a valuable fur
overcoat from the train at Truckee
Some two weeks ago while a
crowded train of passengers were
making their way to the Walker In
dian reservation three or four pas
sengers aboard the train had thcir
pockets picked, one of the passengers
losing about 500.
There is no doubt that it will go
hard with the petty thieves who are
thriving by their persistent depre-
dations, as the railroad people will
leave nothing undone to effect their
capture and when caught the thieves
will be given the extreme limit of the
law.

When Maxim. the famous gun inventor, placed his gun before a committee of judges, he stated it's carrying power to be much below what he felt sure the gun would accomplish. The result of the tri- al was therefor q great surprise, instead of disappointment. It is the same with the manufacturers of Chamberlain's collie, cholera and diarrhoea remedy.

Qaick Returns, Large Profits.

It is not often that virtue is re- warded outright. forthwith. instantcr and no discount, but occasionally there sweeps across our vision the story of duty well and quickly done. which shines like "a good deed in q naughty world" cheering and encouraging those doubtful and distrusting ones who hesitate even to as- sume q virtue. much less exercise it, when they cannot be certain of the immediateness of the reward of such a course.
 But there are some fortunate ones who receive such quick re turns in the matter of right doing that the rest of us are startled into taking notice, if not persuaded into following their example.
 Now, (. E., there is Charles A. Wilson, Chef of Police of Peoria, III. When delegation of seven young ladies from one of the public schools bounced beaming into his office and requested him to see that their basketball game was protected from inte- ference by ribald and riotous boys, MT. Wilson "seen his duty and he done It." No sooner had his word of assurance been given than the whole beaming, beau teous, bounteous bunch of bas- ket-bell bearers bounced-yea pounced-upon him. literally showering him with kisses and wildering him with an onrush of muliebrity.
 When the osculatory shower was over, there was a fitting of skirts out of the office, and MT. Wilson, we are told, "was left alone with his reflections. ' And who shall say that those reflections were not of the sweet ness, as well as the swiftness, of the reward of virtue. and of the higher duty of man. with de- termination to seek it and pursue? Who shall say that Mir. Wilson is not a better Chief of Police at this moment than he was few days ago? And with this example before them who shall say that every one of his men may not be encouraged to become better policemen, in the hope of such rev ard?
 And just supposing but why suppose? The prospect of the high standard of duty to which all mankind might be lured by the continual hope of such largcsse as this. should the ladies all at once decide upon the regeneration of man. is too dazzling to contemplate with unshaded eyes.-Republic.
