Eight Boats II Is Now Proposed to

pany Profit Of st,47t,52o.

Washington, Mar 21.--In support Of
his assertion that more than one mil
lion dollars of Unnecessary profit had
been paid by the United States gov
eminent to the Electric Boat company
In the purchase Of submarine torpedo
boats, and that similar high profits
were contemplated in pending con
tracts proposed to be awarded to
that company, Representative Lilley
tConn.) has prepared for submission
to the special submarine investigation
committee Of the house, certain state
ments, comparisons and conclusions.
The statements include extracts
from the hearings before the house
naval affairs committee in 1901 and
1902 when Rear Admirals Melville,
O'Nell and Bowles were examined as
to the cost Of construction Of sub
marine torpedo boats. In his state
ment Admiral o'Nell said that from
his own observation he thought $780,
900 each would be a very liberal price
for the Holland boats. The contracts
Of which Mr.. Lilley complains call for
purchase price Of $2S5,OOO per boat.
Continuing, Mr.. Lilley says:
Therefore, basing calculations upon
the figures Of Admiral Bowles, which
he says would give a handsome profit
to the builders of the Holland boats,
namely $S9,450 for a hilton boat or
$745.45 pc rton-it will readily be seen
by comparative statements that there
has been an extra handsome profit Of
$l,519,738 since the United States con-
tracted for the first Holland boat, the
Plunger, In March, 1899; and 1t will
be seen that the excessive profits to
be made on the eight boats which 1t
is now proposed to buy from the
Electric Boat company would be ST..
471,52O."

there in the White House. He was

sponsibility came to him as the head
Of the government and to his secretary
as the head of the treasury depart
ment. Where else could the money
have been sent to stop the panic no

Senator Bailey said he sympathized
with the Oklahoma senator; that the

money was In New York and was kept
from them, and he did not think such

VAST ETIWANDA ACREAGE
SELLS FOR OVER $4,000
Land Company Acquires Property Of
Mrs. w. Wood, Comprising 1910
Acres--Is Partly Planted
to Grapes

SAN BERNARDINO, June 13.-One
Of the largest transfers Of property
that have ever taken place in the Eth
wanda colony has just been concluded.
The Etiwanda Water company pur-
chases the holdings Of Mrs. Leona
Wood, widow of the late Fred w
Wood, one of the original locators In
the colony on the west.
The purchaser, the Etiwanda Water
company, is a mutual concern in which
nearly all the ranchers of the colony
are stockholders. m w
The tract of land includes 1910 acres
which makes the price per acre $25.
With the land goes valuable water
bearing land from which the company
expects to develop a large amount of
water.
Negotiations for the deal have been
in progress since last September. At
the start the parties were at least $4,000
apart, but gradually came to an agree
ment.
The property is partly planted to
grapes. With the land is included
canyon in the foothills from which
flows a creek, the waters of which be-
long OF the Etiwanda company. The
water Is taken from the channel by
means of a diverting dam, but large
quantity flows beneath the surface and
percolates through the land sold by Mrs.
Wood. 1t was to secure all this water
that the ,iand was bought.
The Etiwanda company is capitalized
at $230,000, and Its stock sells at par.
