MILK RIVER CONTROVERSY.
The Irrigation Project Sanctioned by
This Country.

While there has been no further diplomat
c development in the water right discus
sion between this country and Canada, the
United States will soon be in position to
dictate pretty much any terms it pleases
in the Milk river controversy. Canada up to
date has not shown any great haste about
coming forward with treaty, but this
country Is going ahead with a project that
will certainly incline her to hurry up
1t will be remembered that the Milk NV
er in northern Montana runs for about a
hundred miles through Canada, tolerably
close to the international line before max
ing much longer sweep through this coun-
try and emptying into the Missouri. The
river begins and ends in this country, but
only part of 1t is on the north side of the
international boundary. Canadians have
been taking some water from this river
heretofore, using roughly about a quarter
of it's flow in irrigation projects. This coun-
try is putting in big reservoir and canals
up in the St. Marys region on the headwa-
tiers of the river and naturally wants to
make 4 friendly arrangement with Canada
protecting the rights of prior users of wa
ter In both countries. There is no wish to be
harsh about the terms of division but this
country has made the suggestions for about
the sort of treaty it thinks right and it is
up to the anadians to agree. In fact it has
been up to them for some time but they
have been rather slow in making any move.
Now this country has sanctioned the con-
structioh of the Milk river project, as it
is called which will irrigate about 2Jo.cO0
acres of land. Plans have been drawn and
work commenced on a big storage basin up
in the St. Marys region, which contains
some of the most beautiful scenery in the
United States. AS the work is now outlined
a short canal Will carry the water from the
storage reservoir over to the headwaters
of the Milk river and turn much larger
annual flow and a steadier flow of water
through Canada. But. and here comes the
beauty of the arrangement, If there Is not
a treaty and the right sort of treaty, too.
negotiated by Great Britain, we can just
as well turn the short line canal little dis
tance southwark and cut off all the noun
tain watershed from the headwaters of the
Milk river. This would irrigate a large sec
ton of higher land closer to the st. Marys
basin and the water ultimately would find
it's way into the Milk river after 1t re-en-
tiers American territory.
With this situation well in hand and work
on the canal commenced, it is thought that
the Canadian authorities will begin to sit
up and take notice. This government nat
urally does not want to shut off their heat
as it were. altogether. But it is in an excel
lent position to do so if the necessity
arises.

TELLS BIZ
THEIR SLEEP

Il can tell by my little ones
sleep when'a cold is coming on"
said mother when speaking OF
the advance symptoms OF colds
in children. They toss about,
are restless, their breathing is
heavy and there are symptoms
OF night sweats. The next morn
ing | start with SCOTS Emul-
sion. The chances are that in
a day or two they are all over
it. Their rest is again peaceful
and the breathing normal"
Here's a suggestion for all
mothers. SCOTS Emulsion al
ways has been almost magical
in its action when used as the
ounce of prevention. Nothing
seems to overcome child weak
ness quite SO effectively and
quickly as SCOTS Emulsion.

GREENE-GAYN0R TRIAL
NEW YORK BROKERS TESTIFIED
AS TO BOND SALE.

SAVANNAH February 9.-Clarksman
Runion of New York. a member of the firm
of w. W. Kelvin G. Co.. No. 40 Wall street,
was put on the stand on the resumption
of the trial of Greene and Gaynor today.
He testified that Lachlan Kellogg of New
York, who has been attorney for o. NJ.
Carter, bought on October II, 1897, s14,990
worth OF United States bonds through his
firm. District Attorney Erwin said he
would prove that these bonds were bought
for Carter and Greene
w. J. Albrecht, an undertaken of Jack
sonvile, Fla, was placed on the stand to
prove the death of Thomas j. Agnew, whose
testimony before Commissioner Shields IN
New York in 1894 will be read.
Maj. Cassius L. Gillette was questioned
al length by the district attorney relative
to the duties of an officer of engineers in
charge of river and harbor improvements.
The contract for the Improvement of
Cumberland sound in 1892 awarded to Ed
ward Fl. Gaynor was taken up and models
were offered of mattresses and facings used
In the construction. He described in detail
how these mattresses and facings should
be made and how they should be sunk
with stone, one mattress at time, TO form
jetties.
1t will be contended by the prosecution
that Greene and Gaynor, who really mad
the contract, did not follow this method,
but did the work in a cheap and unsatis-
factory manner
Saw Very Poor Work.
Maj Gillette said that in an examination
of the work done by the defendants at
Cumberland sound he saw no facings at
all extending all the way across the mat
tresses, as they should have done. He said
his inspection disclosed so conglomerate a
mass of brush that it scarcely impressed
him as being in bundles at all, nor was it
cut and bound in any particular length
He said that for facing work done by the
defendants they had secured price of
$40 a cubic yard, while he had obtained
the same brush work for 40 cents and 81
cents a cubic yard.
The question of contracts was gone into,
but after few minutes questioning by the
district attorney adjournment until tomor-
row was taken.

Death of hrs Thomas 6. Curry.

Mrs. Phoebe Curry, wife of Thomas
G. Curry, West MahOning street, de-
parted this life at o'clock last night.
Mrs. Curry was in i'll health for ten
years. For two years preceding her
death she was i'll an exceedingly wea k
ly state Her condition during yester-
day did not seem unusually critical and
it was not until a very short time be-
fore her demise that the family realiz-
ed that the end was at hand. Heart
failure was the cause of death.
Mrs. Curry was a native of Montour
county. During the greater part of life
she resided in Danville. She was a
Christian woman, kind neighbOr, a
generous and sympathetic friend, be-
loved alike by the members of her own
family and those with whom she min
gled in the church and III the commu-
nifty.
The deceased was seventy-two years
of age. Besides her husband she is sur
vived by seven sons and one daughter.
The latter is Mrs Lizzie Fisher, who
resides at the parental home. The sons
are as follows: Hugh and Ralph Cur
ry, of Brooklyn; Dan. NJ. Curry and
DR.. f. A. Curry and John Curry, of
Danville; Thomas Curry, Jr., of Sun
bury and William Curry, Esq, of
Scranton.
Due notice of the funeral will be
given.

Cast House i'm a New Role.

W. A. Shepperson is utilizing the
timber in the cast house and the eleva-
tor shaft which he purchased at the
Bessemer blast furnace being disman-
tied III the erection of barn on his
farm, Valley township, to replace the
one destroyed by fire a few months
ago.
The timber is as good as new and
many of the beams are of extraordi-
nary length. The trusses supporting
the roof, which are held together by
iron bolts, are very easily taken apart
and can be conveniently hauled to the
farm, where they will be put together
again and used precisely as in the cast
house. The big trusses, sixty-five feet
long, lend themselves very convenient
ly to the construction of the barn,
which will be built on the old founda-
tion and will be a very commodious
structure.
The cast house is pretty we'll dis
mantled. The elevator shaft has not
as yet been attacked. The high struc-
ture contains vast amount of good
timber and will more than suffice to
complete the barn, affording not only
heavy timber but also weather boards.

Winding Up His Business.

John Hooley, who has accepted a
position as General Manager with the
Thatcher Furnace Company at New
ark, n. j.. is getting ready to wind up
business at his foundry on East Nah
oning street, which from the present
outlook may stand idle for an indef-
mite time
Mr.. Hooley has been doing work for
the Thatcher company and between
the present and the close Of the p.onth
will ship all the patterns that he has
been using back to the home plant.
By February 1st he himself will fol-
low, entering Immediately upon his
new duties as general manager.
Mr.. Hooley is unable to state def
initely what the future will be Of his
conveniently situated and finely equip
ped little plant in this city. Just as
he is about closing up he realizes that
there is an unprecedented demand for
the several lines of work that his
foundry turns out. Every bit of the
product is sold.
Under the circumstances it would be
loss to the town if the foundry were
to close up for the want of good ex-
perienced man to take hold of it. It
is hoped that some means can be de-
vised whereby the plant can be kept
in operation. 1t is a problem for the
Board of Trade.

Plot to Kill Pennypacker.

WASHINGTON, Pa, Jan 24.-That
Governor Pennypacker, of Pennsyl
vania, and Governor Pattison, of Ohio,
as well as prominent officials in other
parts of the country, were marked for
death by a band of anarchists was
learned yesterday, when Washington
county officials raided the headquar-
ters of society of anarchists and found
convincing proof that assassination
had been planned
The plot to kill the States Chief
Executive was unearthed while the
officers were hunting for the murder
ers of Michael Carrazola, wealthy
Italian, who was mysteriously shot at
Dunlevy, this county, last week. The
discriminating evidence was discovered
in an old shanty located in a dense
swamp at Baird, a small mining town
ten miles east of Washington.
Letters and papers We're found which
implicate anarchists at Paterson and
other parts of the country and show
that the plot was an extensive one.
The first clew to the conspiracy was
obtained when George Barli, an Ital-
ian, was arrested Monday night near
Biard, charged with completely in the
Carrazola murder
In his pocket was found a paper on
which had been drawn the plan of
small house where evidently he and
others had been meeting. Had not the
local band bungled in this one respect
the plot would probably not have been
revealed.
FAR REACHING CONSPIRACY.
Officers are endeavoring to suppress
the Importance of their discovery, but
they admit they have evidence enough
to implicate anarchists in all parts of
the country.
In the room where proof of the plot
was discovered were found letters writ
ten to leaders of the local society by
men from Paterson and other cities.
These letters show that the Washing
ton band was delegated to get rid of
Pennypacker and Pattison and similar
bands i'll other parts of the country
were entrusted with the assassination
of other officials in their territories.

A Derelict Ferry Boat.

The remains of an old ferry boat
broken and battered from contact with
the rocks came down the river early
yesterday morning and was caught by
the well known riverman, Frank Ross.
The boat is wide enough for one
vehicle only, while in length it is
sufficient to accommodate three horses
and carriages standing end to end. 1t
is believed to be the boat that was car
ried away at Berwick a few weeks ago
and was partially wrecked on the rocks
that form the rifles a short distance
below that town.
The derelict yesterday morning lodg
ed against one of the piers of the riv-
er bridge, where it was boarded by
Frank Ross, who piloted it down stream
and brought it into shore this side of
the creek 5 mouth.
