OPEN BIDS
 FOR BIG DAM

New York, Aug. 6.-Bids were open dam that will hold back the waters of the Ashokan reservoir, and the name of the contestants who will undertake this great engineering feat will soon be announced. The project will cost rot less than $l0.0000o0. and with the exception of one in Egypt and the Gro ton reservoir dam, will be the largest in the world The contractors will be given eighty-fcur months from today tG complete the work.
 The Ashokan dam will be 200 feet high. From a thickness of 196 feet at the base it will taper to 26 feet at the apex. The length will be 1000 feet. The contractors will have to clear 200 acres fland before begin ming the actual work of construction.
 The reservoir is located near Browns Station, Ulster county, and will hold 100000, ,000,000 gallons of water from the Catskill watershed from which place it will be conducted through the Ashokan aqueduct, 1OS miles in length, to this city. The first sod for the mighty equeduct was turn ed by Mayor Mcclellan several weeks ago.
 The dam will be almost as large as the Assuan dam, which holds in check the overflow of the Nile, for the purpose of irrigating the Egyptian desert and the reservoir will hold l only a litle less water. The first sec Lion of the aqueduct is now in process of construction, but several years will be required for it's completion. This lien mile section is expected to cost over $4,000,000, and on the same basis the total cost of the aqueduct alone will be about $45 ,000,000. The total cost of the dam reservoir and aque- duct is estimated at S165, ,000,OO0. Al though the water supply of the city Is at present sufficient, it is believed that by the time the project is com pleted the additional source of supply will he badly needed.

PIG IRON SQUEEZE TO END.
Corey Agrees With Independents Not
+o Hold Up Prices.

PITTSBURG, March 19.-President Will
liam Ellis Corey of the United States Steel
CORPORATION has within the last twenty
four hours held an important conference
here regarding pig iron. 1t is understood
that the result of the conference was that
there will be no more war in prices on pig
iron between the corporation and the indie
pendent makers of pig.
It is understood now that at quiet con-
ference with several Independent producers
of pig iron Corey let it be known that the
big corporation which has shut down on the
sellers Of independent iron is ready to meet
them half way, that all the pig iron they
have on hand ready for sale, and which has
been held at prohibitive prices. will be
taken off their hands at fair price.
One of the articles Of agreement IS that
there shall not in the future be any hold
ing up of prices. Corey. it is understood,
has guaranteed that as long as he Is head
of the corporation there will be no more
squeezing in pig iron.
The situation in the Pittsburg district,
so far as pig iron Is concerned, has been
made worse by the flood. There are quite
a number of furnaces out OF commission
now, and each one out reduces the daily
output of pig iron by at least 500 tons

GIRL CASHIER LOCKED IN VAULT
Robbers Struck Her Down and Placed
Her in Store Safe.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, March 19.-When
the other employees of the r. & G. Furni-
ture Company, the largest store Of it's kind
in the city, left it Saturday night Miss Josie
Gray the cashier, was still going over her
men that she would possibly remain for an
hour. She failed to reach her home at mid
night, and her parents became alarmed
and notified the police. The store was Wis
tied and the doors were found to be un-
locked.
When the police entered everything indf-
Gated that there had been some kind of n
commotion in the establishment. Small
Office and there was evidence that strug-
gle had taken place. but Miss Gray could
not be found.
Manager Gumberts was called and when
he opened the vault there lay the body of
the cashier, showing that she had oeen
some heavy instrument. She was uncon-
scious, and was taken to ST. Mary's Hos
pital. An examination shows that her skull
was not fractured and though her injuries
are severe, it is believed they are not
fatal but she was unconscious from shock
and fright.
Manager Gumberts says that there were
several thousand dollars in bills in the safe
when it was closed Saturday night and all
of them are missing. Just how the young
lady was surprised while at her work and
overpowered Is not known, but 1t is be-
lieved that she fought desperately to defend
her employers property, as the Office fur
several pieces broken. Miss Gray is only
nineteen years Of age, but has been en-
ployed by the firm for several years. No
clew has been discovered to the robbers.

A woman. good or bad, shot man,

stands, she says. "intrenched behind
the 'unwritten law" She claims to
have chased this man from Utah to
Washington and shot him to death
in his hotel, because he refused to
provide for her and her two children;
that she has twice been made a
mother; that one Of the children bears
his name.
We have, up to date. been pretty
tolerant Of the woman who takes a
babe on one arm and pistol In the
other hand and pursues man to his
death. But when there are two chill.
dren, as In this case, one may well
ponder q bit before he gives her the
tears and tenderness 80 generously
given to the guileless. misguided girl.
Like HIghwayman's Act.
A woman cannot well come into
court with family Of children and
plead seduction and betrayal. as a
girl too often does, and have the sym
patty of both men and women. This
woman's statement Is that she asked
the man either to marry her or give
her money to support her children. He
said mo: will not" and with that
she shot him to death, or, at least, did
her best to kill him on the spot.
Briefly and bluntly she shot him down
in his hotel for refusing to give her
money. The difference between this
act and that OF the ordinary burglar
or highwayman is not very distinct.
Her declaration that the world will
see the justification of her act Is as
the declaration of an insane woman.
And this must be, as you will see, Is,
her only excuse; and It will be pleaded
80 soon as a lawyer can be found to
take care of her, her only defense.
Yet there will be many ready to say

mented the story Of the attempted
murder with the assertion that she
had not one cent" Whereupon a
beautiful lady of more than ordinary
culture and knowledge of the world
was moved to tears and sighed: mot

man, husband and father with
family of daughters, sighed from the
other end of the table: "Ah, my dear,
thers are others who have not cent.
II we are to allow oil those who have
not cent to set out and chase those
down who happen to have cent or
two where will that sort Of plea lead
us?"
Victims Morals Irrelevant.
AS said before, as to whether this
man is a good or bad man, high or
low, rich or poor, or whether the
woman Is either, neither, or all Of
these, does not figure at all In this
dismal and pitiful case. Can woman
leave her children behind her and
chase a man thousands Of miles, and
then when she murders him put as her
last excuse the fact that she has not
