AWAITING RESULTS
 OF SUPREME TtST
If The Imperial Intake Withstands the Present Flood There Will be no Doubt of Its Permanency.

The supreme test of the strength of sthe works built along the Colorado river by the Southern Pacific compa- ny to permanently turn the stream back into its regular channel, will come within the next week. says the Los Angeles Times of the 18th. The following telegram, in The Times from Yuma shows the conditions last night:
 "The Colorado river is threatening tonight. At s:30 o'clock the govern ment gauge registers 29 feet. and a rise of six inches before morning will test the strength of all that has been done to baffle the flood. The intake is in no danger"
 The chief engineer of the California Development company. who built the dams and levees at the break of the Colorado. reported last Monday that the protective works were holding all right
 The report on Monday from Needles was that the river was within six inches of last years highest water. and half mile opposite the town. a portion of the water running through old Spears Lake, which remained af- ter the river changed its course about thirty-five years ago.
 When the first soldiers were brought up the Colorado to establish Fort Mo- 1ave. the main channel of the river was through Spears Lake. but the river changed its course soon after ward, and no water has been running through the lake for about thirty-five years. The present overflow. widen- ing the river to seven and a half miles has turned some water back into the old channel.
 Where the Santa Fe bridge crosses the Coloyado. the river is much mar rover than at Needles. and an inch rise at Needles means a rise of several inches at the bridge and at Yuma.
 The highest stage of the Colorado may be expected within d few days and that will put decisive test upon the levees on both sides of the river below Yuma and upon the works at Laguna dam.

WIDESPREAD CAMPAIGN
 AGAINST FIRE LOSSES
Mayors of all Cities in America Asked to Corporate in Formulation of Measures to ForestaII Disasters.

Washington, D. C.. June 2I.-As an additional step in movement to mul- tiply means of prevention of losses by fire. the following letter has been sen, from the headquarters at Washington or the International Society of State and Municipal Buildings Commission CTS and Inspectors to the mayor of every city in America:
 To His Honor the Mayor:
 Some municipal executives have won fame by at least attempting to reduce the cost Of street car travel. others by the strict enforcement of liauor regulations. and still others have done great good for their communities by initiating, or working on behalf of ex- isting. wise laws regulating this. that or the other thing that needed regula : tion. But so far we know of no city whose executive has zealously striven 10 eradicate one of the greatest evils that besets and threatens the extinc- ton of every one of our municipalities fire. Yet its ravages have meant 1000 human lives in a year. and in money in that same period nearly half a bil lion dollars. Surely is the matter
 
 Our fire departments have been inn proved to a high degree in efficiency. most of our cities have installed ex- cellent water works, we have done wonders in trying to cure the evil, but have made few efforts. indeed. in the right direction, that of prevention. Our people have grown needless of the danger, and keep on building so shod- dily that the wonder is that We have not more such disasters as those of San Francisco and Baltimore. Our cities of 100000 people Or so feel we'll off when the years fire loss is not over half a million dollars and the cost of fighting fire does not exceed $500. 900; European cities of similar size are solely stricken when their loss exceeds s5o.oo0 year. and the cost of fire de- partments. etc, is greater than an- other s50,000.
 Surely the time has come when something drastic must be done. Little dependence can be placed upon the in dividual; he, the general run of him, erroneously believes that his interests are best subserved by cheap, flimsy building. It becomes the duty of the community. through it's executive and legislative bodies. to take steps toward its own projection by the prevention of fire in spite of the individuals i'm difference in the matter. Stricter building regulations should be enacted and enforced; your building depart ments should be given more authority and more help in order that not only the new buildings may be better built. but that the old ones be frequently and thoroughly inspected and their owners compelled to make those build ings less of menace than they are 10 their neighbors and to the safety of the entire city.
 We bespeak your earnest coopera- ton in this matter. No one can do so much for his city as can it's mayor; the press and your most public-spirit- ed and intelligent citizens will rally to your aid, and. last and least. this so-

NEW VALLEY HIGHWAY.
Representative AIlerton Thinks 1t
VIII Come First.

Waterbury, Aug. 6. Representative
Charles G. Allerton Of Middlebury, who
was instrumental In putting through
the measure as a result 9af which good
roads are to be constructed all over the
state, doesn't believe that the first
work will be a trunk road between
Middletown and Waterbury, via VOL
colt That such was Highway Com
missioner MacDonald's scheme has
been stated in lot OF papers, but Mr..
Allerton can't see 1t,
"Such a road said he to-day, would
be foolish In the extreme. 1t would not
be used much and think the Highway
commissioner win direct his first en-
ergles to building a road elsewhere.
In fact I understand the first big job
will be the establishment of trunk
road through the Naugatuck Valley,
from Bridgeport to Winsted. Between
these places there are now substantial
stretches of excellent roadway and the
making Of one big road will necessi-
tate simply connecting links between
those parts already built
Mr.. Allerton believes that Connecti-
cuts Highway commissioner is the
best in the country and points out
that other states have called him in
frequently when they have had large
expenditures for new roads under con-
sheraton.
