OREGON RIVERS
WELL SUPPLIED
MONEY FOR IMPROVE
MENTs is RECOMMENDED.
Jetty VIII Be Completed, Cello Fund
is Provided, and Upper River I'M
provements Are Assured-State of
Washington Expected to Provide a
Large Fund for Upper River I'M
provements.

Oregon rivers and harbors have
been literally supplied with funds
for improvements by the congression-
al committee which reported yester-
day, in Washington.
BY the terms of the appropriations
recommended the mouth of the Co
lumbia river gets every cent that was
recommended, and with this money
the jetty will be completed. While
only s752,244 is appropriated in cash.
the engineers are authorized to make
contracts to the aggregate amount of
s2,452,244, and the balance of that
money will be carried In the sundry
civil bill of next session, long before
the contracts have been fulfilled.
The department recommended an
appropriation of s45o,o0O for contin-
uing the channel improvement be-
tween Portland and the mouth of the
Columbia. This item was reduced to
| $500, 900, because the committee looks
| to the city Of Portland and adjacent
country to bear a large share Of the
cost Of this improvement, assurance
having been given the committee by
representative citizens that a taxation
district had been formed to raise
money for this purpose.
Liberal With Cello Canal.
The committee was more liberal
with The Dalles- Cello canal than was
at first supposed. The 100000 cash
that is appropriated is ample to meet
needs, and when this runs out the
committee has authorized the expen-
diture of an additional $500, 900
which is only s150,000 less than was
asked for by the war department
The full amount would have been ap.
propriated but for the fact that the
engineers very recently recommended
a large appropriation for improving
the Columbia river above Cello.
The committee appropriates $500.
600 for that part of the Columbis
river between Cello and the mouth o.
Snake river and $4,000 for the
stretch of river farther up betwee
Wenatchee and Bridgeport. Thes,
two Items more than offset what wa
cut off the canal project.
However, the canal appropriation
is satisfactory to the Oregon ant
,, Washington delegations, for 1t abso
lutely commits the government to d,
the work and the next river and har
Dor bill will probably make this
continuing contract and provide TO
its completion as fast as practicable.
1t is understood in connection will
the upper Columbia project that tn
state of Washington will appropriat
considerable money to aid It in i'm
proving the channel entirely within
: that state.
The Upper Columbia and Snak
Gold project) get $4,000, all that wa
asked for.
The Columbia at Cascade Locks
: allowed $4,000, though this item
n subject to possible revision before tn
bill is reported.

NEGRO BALDWIN MAY
 BE TRIED AGAIN

GLOBE, April 25.-William Bald win, the negro who was sentenced to hang at Solomonville May for the murder of little Aminta Morris, will probably be tried again in Globe next month for the murder of Mrs. Harvey Morris, for which he was indicted last month. This is the intention of Dis trict Attorney Stoneman and unless there is some hitch this program will be carried out with the view of having Baldwin pay the penalty for his hor- rible crime before the territorial su- preme court takes action OF the ap- peal taken by the negro's counsel to the supreme court after sentence was pronounced at Solomonoyille last month. This appeal will serve to give Baldwin at least short respite, as the sentence of the court cannot be executed until the supreme court dis poses of the case.
 An interesting development in the case has been the apparently sum- mary dismissal of the attorneys who made such hard fight to save Bald win from the gallows after they had been appointed under protest by Judge Nave to conduct the defense. Attorneys F. c. Jacobs, George R. Hill and c. L. Rawlins were the attorneys who defended Baldwin and the first lntimation they had of their dismissal came in a letter to Attorney Jacobs from the law firm of Lowell & Ritchey of Tucson, in which the latter stated that they had been retained by friends of Baldwin to prosecute the appeal taken to the supreme court and ask ing for a record of the case
 The Globe attorneys who had the distasteful and unremunerative task of defending the negro rapist and murderer are willing to turn the case over to the Tucson attorneys, who will doubtless get the only remunera- tion which will have been paid for Baldwin's defense but 1t is doubtful if aay amount of money could have given the accused negro a stronger defense than was furt shed him by the Globe lawyers. At the convening of court here early next month Bald win will be arraigned for the murder of Mrs. Morris and his casei iset for trial by Judge Nave.

HURTING WORK ON LAGUHA
 RESERVOIR
Government Is Seeking to Complete the Great Dam to River Banks Before High Water Comes.

There are one thousand men at work on the Yuma irrigation project at present and a still larger force will be added this week. The working force, which has averaged six or seven hundred has been increased in an effort to finish the dam to the river banks before high water, which will come within another month. The Cochan and Searchlight steamers are carrying heavy shipments of freight daily to the dam and material is con stantly being rushed to Yuma for Laguna. Excavation work on the Ari- zona side has been completed and but little remains to be done on the Cali fornia side. After the rock has all been laid on either side large force will still be retained to place the cement work on the top of the dam, which will occupy much of the sum mer When the coffer dams have been constructed and sluiceways built the Laguna dam will be finished.
 There are three camps on the levee route between Yuma and Otholes. Four hundred head of stock are al- ready at work and four hundred more will be added during the coming  week, clearing the way for the levee. There are at present about ninety Yuma Indians. fifty Mexicaas and the same number of Cocopahs at work and twice that number will be added this week. ... ..-....
 The Marable grading camp is at this end of the levee. and the engin- eers' camp is three miles from the Indian school hill. Engineer Brain ard. who has charge of the ,v,re work, is stationed at this point while experimenting the work. ... ..-
 The teams and scrapers are now filling in the low places along the river bank to make work possible after the overflow comes.

DEAL IS MADE FOR s ..
 THE ZANE PROPERLY
Fred c, Ames, Local Under takerr and L, L. Henderson,
 Buy Two-thirdS Interest.

A deal in local mining property has been made whereby Fred c. Ames of the Palace Undertaking CO, and l.. L. Henderson of the Palace Stables, become the owners of a two-thirds in terest in the Oliver Zane property. west of the city and near the Bisbee Extension.
 The price paid by Ames and Hen dersor for their interest in the prop erty is not made public, but it is said to be tidy sum- The Zane claims are fourteen in number with some fractional claims besides.
 This Is the same property concern ing which it was related several weeks ago that Emil Marks, L. c. Shattuck and P. T. Britt, had become the owners. The deal, which was then pending, has evidently fallen through, for the consummation of the negotiations related above were yes terday confirmed by MT. Ames.
 It is the intention of the new pur- chasers to incorporate a company in the near future for the purpose of mining the property on a large scale. Later stock may be put on the mar ,ket locally, but this Is not determin- ed upon yet.
 When conditions have regained their normal status, and there is a freer disposition on the part of cap ital to engage in local mining, the Zane holdings may be put up to the public.
 All eyes are now on the country to the west of Bisbee and great things are expected of the Bisbee Extension. When that company has developed it's ground sufficiently to prove what exists in a mineral way in that sec tion. more activity may be looked for in the district mentioned.

SHAlTUCk PEOPLE
 AGAIN IN DOUGLAS
General Manager PattiSon and Lem ShattuCk Arrive This
 Morning,

General Manager B. NJ. Pattison and Lem Shattuck, of the Shattuck and Denn Mining companies, arrived in Douglas this morning and this after noon visited the proposed sites for the new Shattuck smelter which is ex- pected to be erected in Douglas during the present year. After the site is decied upon it will require consider able surveying to determine correctly the contour of the ground and after that work of excavating for the con crete foundations for the big steel buildings will soon follow.
 Mir. Pattison when asked about the strike in the Bisbee mines stated all the companies were receiving in creased numbers of men every day and the product of ore was gradually getting back to the normal output. The Queen company, according to Mir. Pat tison is now almost normal in the number of men working in its mines
 This statement by MT. Pattison is borne out by the statement of one of the officials at the Copper Queen smelter today who stated that the largest tonnage of ore was smelted at the Queen plant yesterday since it was put in operation and he further said that for two weeks not a pound of ore had been taken from the reserve pits.

EYT|NGE |S CALM IN FACE OF
 GALLONS
Is Arraigned Before Judge Kent On Charge of Murder and Attorneys Baker and Frank lin Appointed By Court.
Special to RevIew.)

PHOENIX, April 25.-"Louis " Eytinge, you are indicted for murder Stand up."
 As these words feli from Judge Kents' lips this morning he fumbled the indictments for murder and for gery against Eytinge nervously.
 Eytinge stood up and instantly be came the center of every eye in the courtroom. He was the calmest man present In the hearts of the ob- servers there was feeling of curious excitement, nervous dread: in the face of Eytinge there was careless in difference and calmness. He stroked his smooth-shayen chin gently, and looked serenely around him. Tn fact. there was a tinge of the dramatic ef- feet in his attitude-a deferential pose for the eye of the court.
 This is very serious charge against you. Have you retained couD' sel?"
 T have no means at this time to employ attorneys, and may not have in the future; but I do not know of any lawyers who I would rather have care for my interests than Judge Baker and Alfred Franklin"
 The court looked at the two attor- neys, who were present.
 "If you have any way of getting means, you must pay these men," said the judge. But if you have not, and these gentlemen are willing, l appoint them"
 Baker and Franklin Cr,lemnly bowed acquiesence. and the judge handed the indictments to the clerk.
 Eytinge carelessly tossed aside his long, blue necktie and smiled; and then Sheriff Hayden led him back to the gloom of his prison cell.
 A Democrat reporter then inter- viewed Judge Baker and asked if he expected to get anything out of the case.
 q understand" responded the judge, that there is some kind of trust fund in Ohio that is held for Eytinge; but this information is so indefinite that I cannot say whether We will get any pay or not. But the court has appointed Mir Franklin and myself on the case, and it is our law fnl duty to represent him. We will do the best that we can for him."
 There are two counts in the mur- der indictment-one for murder by poison and the other for murder by means unknown to the jury" The grand jury also returned an iudict- ment for forgery against him.
