HUNDREDS OF MEN WORKING
Irrigation Company Rushing Things
in Carbon County-Two Tun-
nels Nearly Completed.
Especial to The Herald

Prica Utah, June 9.-Seventy-fiy or
more additional men were put to work on
the big canal by Superintendent Ford Of
the Utah Irrigation and Power company
below Helper, making over 300 employees
now on the payrolls. The majority of
the men are used in driving the two tun-
nels and on rock work north of the tun-
nels toward Helper, though quite num-
Der of men and teams are engaged on the
latter. The new men came from Green
River and are experienced. Superintendent:
Ford hopes to complete the two tunnels
within three weeks, when most of these
workmen will be transferred to Goose
berry valley to put in the j100-foot dam
for the big reservoir, and should the work
be not finished here at that time, others
will be secured to rush things up there.
The season for work in the Gooseberry
being short, advantage is to be taken of
every days time. With the coming of
low water later in the season the concrete
dam at the point of diversion for the big
canal at Helper is to be put in. This will
be about four feet high and will be about
opposite the Rio Grande Western hotel.

purpose. South of the two tunnels there

Vote to Be Taken Today.

Paris. June 2O.-The government was
put on its defense in the chamber of
deputies this afternoon when it was asked
to Justify the repressive measures adopt

Clemenceau to a hot fire the deputies
decided to postpone until tomorrow for
NAL Interpolation on the subject, on
which the fate of the ministry hangs.
Seldom has the chamber been so full of
excited deputies. The absence of relia-
BILE news made them nervous, and imme-
diately after the session was opened there
were noisy demands for full information.
Clemenceau was willing to answer dues-
tions but he had little to impart beyond
what was already known. After confirm
ing the reports of the sanguinary fight
at Narbonne and Montpelier, for which
he blamed the local roughs. the premier
declared his intention to repel attacks on
public buildings until driven from his post
by the chamber
A special from NarbOnne says that a
state of siege was proclaimed there at
noon. No confirmation of the report was
obtained.

Counsel Could Not Agree.

Judge LAWYERS efforts to induce OppOs-

failed. Both sides were willing to agree
that the list of IA names presented by
Clerk Mulcrev was the list drawn by the
superior judges; that Grand Juror Cor
dams name was one of the eleven names
left over from the panel of jurors before
the fire, and that it was one of the thirty
names from which the Brennan grand
jury was drawn. Further than this they
would not agree. so Judge LAWYER asked
the attorneys for the defense to produce
evidence in support of their motion.

Statement of Attorney.

In making this admission Attorney A. A.
Moore declared that while he was anxious
and willing TO stipulate that every order
or minute signed and the transcript OF the
proceedings concerning the empanelment
of the grand jury were correct, he would
not be estOpped from cOntesting the suftl-
cheney of the antecedent records
"A grand jury could not have been i'm
paneled," he declared, without restoring
the antecedent records. If it is the law
that they should have been restored, very
good. If it is not the law, very good. This
question must be settled and we cannot
lose an opportunity to avail ourselves of
the point by STIMULATING TO something that
does not exist

EARTHQUAKE MAY SAVE IN
DICTED MEN.

San Francisco. June 28.-The attorneys
for Patrick Calhoun and his associates in
the trolley franchise bribery case and
the attorneys for Louis Glass of the Pa
eific Telephone & Telegraph company,
disclosed today the ground upon which
they hope to set aside the indictments
against them. Briefly stated, it is this:
In January, 1905, the superior judges, act
ing under the provisions of section POS of
the code of civil procedure, prepared a
list OF l44 grand jurors and subsequently
delivered Jne list to the county clerk.
In the fire of a year ago the list was
preserved by County Clerk MulcreYy, but
the record of the proceedings at the time
the list was prepared was destroyed. 1t
is now claimed that because this record
was not restored before the impeachment
of the present grand jury that body has
no existence in law.
