IRRIGATION UP N IDAHO
Possibilities of Portneuf Valley In
vestigated by Engineers of Rec
lamation Service.
Especial to The Heraldl

Washington, June 22.-Preliminary
Investigations have just been complet-
ed by engineers Of the reclamation ser
vice of the irrigation possibilities of
POrtneuf valley, i'm the vicinity of
American Falls, Ida, and of the feast
bility of diVerting the waters of the
Blackfoot river into PoTtneuf drainage.
It is believed that about so 900 acres ly-
ing partly in the Fort Hall reservation,
south of POrtneuf and east of Snake
river. can be served with water from
POrtneuf river. There also exists a
small tract of land north of POcatello
which lies above the reservation ditch
and which can be reached by canal out
Of Portneuf river. diverted a few miles
above PocatellO. Another tract of fine
iTrigable land of about 10000 acres in
the vicinity of Chesterfield could prob
ably be irrigated by diverting the wa
ters of BIackfoOt river into POrtneuf
drainage. and as these lands lie well
up on the stream all the drainage would
revert back to the Portneuf for use be-
low. A small tract could also be iTri-
gated on the BlaCkfoOt on the canal,
which would convey water through the
divide POrtneuf river could be used
as a channel for waters diverted from
the BlackfOOt river, and from il water
could be diverted at will.
The settlement of Chesterfield was
established about twenty-five years
ago, but the scarcity of water forced
many settlers to abandon their places,
either selling at practically nothing or
renting for pasture. Owing to the pres
ent condition of the reclamation fund
il is extremely doubtful if the reclama-
ton service will be able to assist in
the construction of this work. but if it
is found feasible and the cost reason
able. settlers may he able to organize
and do the work themselves. The wa
ter supply is controlled by the Indian

the explosion of a lot OF "Knalr corks,

the accident occurred.
The Knall cOrks are an ordinary cork

an analysis will be made of the sup

POUCH FOUND IN
PATCH OF WEEDS
Kansas City Mail Robber Over
looked Diamonds Valued
at 100000.
LAWYER AIDS IN ESCAPE
POLICE HAD THE THIEF BOOKED
FOR INVESTIGATION.

Kansas City, June 22.-The registered
mail pouch which contained $4,000 in
money and 100000 worth of diamonds
and jewelry. stolen from a mail car at
the Union station here on the night Of
June 6, was found this afternoon by a
switching crew in the yards of the Rock
Island railroad in Kansas City. Kan.
The pouch still contained a number of
valuable articles of jewelry, but four
empty envelopes which had contained
the $4,000 in currency showed that the
thief had made good on the smaller
part of his haul.
Mysterious Theft.
The theft of the mail pouch was very
mysterious. The pouch was consigned
from Los Angeles to New York city
and contained in addition TO the valu-
able diamonds and jeWelTy. 500 900. be-
ing sent to New York bank. Receipts
were shown for il all the way from
Los Angeles TO Kansas City, where the
pouch was lost sight of. Government
agents from Washington were hurried
here and one of the most extensive
searches ever made by the department
has been conducted.
'FFSN ASdSu FfduOS oi TOitCSs
The case of the stolen pouch was
made still more notable by the fact that
the thief slipped through the hands of
the Kansas City police force. Early on
the morning of June detectives ar
rested negro lettering in Union ave-
nue., near the Union depot. He was
taken 70 the police station and booked
for investigation. The desk sergeant,
when searching the negro, took $4,000
worth of ieWelry from his person and
$500 or 5000 in currency. Shortly after
being locked up the negro sent for an
influential attorney of Kansas City and
told him that he would give 5000 if he
was freed in police court in the morn
ing. The attorney had the charge
from investigation" to va
grancy' and the next day, there be-
ing no other charge against him, he
was ordered 10 leave town.
Traced to Denver.
Two days later the federal authorities
issued photographs of a negro known
as Charles Stephenson, and under va
riOus aliases.
The picture proved to be an exact
likeness of the negro. Federal author
