Gossip in Railway Circles

Several of the railroad men doing
business on East street called the at
tention of Chief OF Police Dinan to the
nuisance that was maintained on that
tboroughfare by the fruit peddlers and
bootblack stands. In reply to their
complaint the railroad men received
the following letter from the Chief:
The Harbor Commissioners have ju-
risdiction over that territory and both
men have permits from that body to
maintain their stands. Mr.. Lynch, the
owner Of the fruit stand, has even gone
so far as to procure an Injunction re-
straining the police from in any way
interfering with his business. You can,
therefore see that the police, under
present conditions. are not in posi-
tion to abate the nuisance complain

The railroad men are curious to find
out what influence Lynch has that en-
ables him to maintain a nuisance and
also what "pull'' was required to erect
an unsightly fence on East street and
plaster it with advertisements.

city closed at p. IN. yesterday The

Ihdt police negligence may be as

the lesson learned by r. Livingston. a
RUSSIAN Journalist and Tolstoyan, re-
siding al 1925 McAllister street. Liv-
ingston, like Count Tolstoy, does not
believe in force of arms, in bureaucracy
and grand dukes. and while he had no
personal quarrels with the Russian po-
lice, he nevertheless does not like
car Nicholas, and showed his contempt
Tor the Slav governmental system by
becoming an immigrant to the land OF

Livingston bought a bicycle and be-
came a Journalist. Through the streets
OF the city he rode about collecting
items, which he wrote in the best
Toistoyan vein and sent TO the St
Petersburg Gazette.
After the fire six boys. in years be-
tween 16 and %, swooped down sud
denly on Livisgston's bicycle and stole
it. The Russian realized that this
was not an offense which should be
lightly treated. and went to the O'Far-

Livingston bought another wheel and
continued his career. He rode in peace
until September. when another band of
the unregenerated, lads of tender years,
making their headquarters at Waller
and Market streets, took his second
wheel. This was not matter for the
police, Livingston thought. and 50 he
took his report of the theft to the Dis
trict Attorney He says he was
laughed out of the Office there. Then

GOVERNMENT CLAIMS
 COLORADO WAFER
4 Ruling Which Threatens Irrigation
 Enterprises

Denver. Feb. 16.-The state auditors | office received information today of d | ruling concerning the flood waters in l Colorado. which it is believed, will bar l individuals and irrigation companies | from using the flood waters in this state under certain conditions. Re gently the Elk Creek Canal company made application for the right to con- struct 2 reservoir site on Elk creek Tn Conejos county, the location of the pro- posed. site being on government land. The interior department refused the application because. as stated in let ter conveying the decision of the de- partment the storing of water on Elk creek would interfere with the flow in
 the Rio Grande in New Mexico and
 lessen the supply of water running into the Eagle dam, one of the irrigation
 projects the government is preparing
 to construct on the Rio Grande. The decision is interpreted here as mean ing that no reservoirs can be con
 stvucted on streams in Colorado that are feeders for rivers either in or out of
 the state, where the government pro-
 poses to build reservoirs for irrigation purposes and is accepted as meaning that the Southern California irrigation
 projec- prohibits the building of re- servoirs on the Grand and other rivers in Colorado that are sources of supply of the Colorado river
 The flood waters of the Colorado are
 valued at $265,O0O,0 900, more than the
 total valuations of the property in the state. and should the governments ir- rigatiOn plans reach a considerable number of the rivers, Colorado streams are feeder for, Coloradoans will be de-
 prived of a valuable asset in it's flood
 waters. This can only be prevented, it is argued by local people gaining priority rights over the government by
 building reservoirs on all Colorado streams

PAT GROVE
 ACQUITTED
Gould not be Positively
 Identified
He is Still to Run the Gauntlet of Trial for Street Car Rob- bery.

Omaha, Feb 16.-The jury in the trial of Pat Grove, charged with the robbery of Edward A. Cudahy, the Omaha packer. of $25,OOO in connec- ton with Kidnapping of the Iatter's son five years ago, this afternoon after fif- teen hours deliberation, brought in 9. verdict of not guilty.
 The Kidnapping of Eddie Cudahy, Dec 19, 1900 and his release upon the payment by his father of a $25.OOO ransom created a great sensation and the search for the kidnappers was stimulated at the time by the offer of Q reward of S5OOOO by MT. Cudahy.
 It was the belief of the authorities that Grove and James Callahan were the guilty parties, but no trace of them could be found until about a year ago identified by Young Cudahy as one of his captors. but released on trial as 1t could not be shown that he received any of the money and there was at that time no law making the kidnap- ing of a person over ten years of age a crime. Last october Grove was ar rested in Butte. Montana, and was put on trial Feb. :. There was no evil dence to positively identify Grove as one of the kidnapers.
 Crowe was recently indicted in Council Bluffs with others. on q charge for holding up a street car.

CONSTRUCTOR CHOSEN
 FOR WATER WORKS
The Commission Last Night Selected
 Alexander Potter Of New York.

The water works commission held
 a meeting last night and settled the
 question of a designing, constructing,
 and supervising engineer by the ss-
 lection of MT. Alexander Potter Of New York. MT. POtters remuneration
 for the work will be two and three
 fourths per cent of the cost of the
 plant. There were three other candi-
 dates for the appointment, one being
 P F. Fuller who asked the same
 remuneration as MT. Potter. EE
 gineer Parker, of Los Angeles, asked a
 compensation of three per cent and D. w. Belden, of this city, offered to do the work for a slightly smaller compensation than any of the other candidates. The mere matter of com pensation, however, was only one point considered, and while all the candidates had friends on the board, the choice fell upon Mr.. Potter after due consideration of other things. chief among which was the experience of the several men in similar work.
 Mr. Potter came here a few days ago and all the gentlemen were before trC board last night except MT. Par
 ker, whose letter was before them and who was here himself a few days ago. MT. Potter is stopping at the Hotel Adams, and is q, cOmpanied b.- Mrs
 Potter. They came via New Orleans and Houston, where Mir Potter had to make brief stops for consultation on other matters. Mrs. Potter by the way is 2 member of the New York bar and q very successful one. having clientele that has necessitated the practiciEg of her profession in sev- Crtl different states. She is a graduate Of the University of New York and was graduated in the same class with Mrs. Thomas SOerin of Tucson, a we'll known member If the Arizona bar
 When seen at the hotel last night after the meeting of the commission and asked to say something concern ing his immediate plans, MT Potter said he would first spend a few days i;I compiling or having compiled the ! necessary available data for the plans and in making some investigations re- ! speeding d good water supply. The i first thing to do will be to perfect l the plans in their entirety and this i he does not propose to do without due { consideration. The enterprise is re- stricted tO a certain amount of money | and that amount is perhaps too small for the ruilding Cf a graivity system ] should that be found practicable. |

Vinol is just what your child needs.
1t is a delicious cod liver oil prepara-

strength, makes rich, red blood and

came so poorly that | was obliged to
take her from school. She was thin,
no appetite, tired all the time and
weak. We had tried several medicines
without benefit. Since taking Vinol,
however, she is as we'll as ever: she
has gained in flesh, has rosy cheeks
and good appetite and is going to
school every day."
We want to say to every mother in
Lafayette that Vinol will build your
little ones up into strong, robust,
healthy children. We have eve
sold anything equal to it in our store
for this purpose. and we will return
your money if it fails.-Moss Phar-
