SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL


WASHINGTON, May 4.-City Engi-
neer Manson of San Francisco and Rep
resentative Needham had three hour
conference today with Assistant Attor-
ney General Woodruff of the interior
department on details of the Hetch
Hetchy grant.
Mr.. Needham, in behalf of the Mo-
desto and Turloek districts. stood out
for an arrangement for sharing with
San Francisco the water to be stored
in Hetch Hetchy.
Mr. Manson was firm in opposing
any such proposition.
Mr.. Woodruff asked if it would not
be agreeable to San Francisco to raise
the dam sufficiently to store enough
water for the irrigation districts, and
Mr.. Manson replied that such an ar
rangement was impossible. He insisted
that San Francisco should have the
site without any penalties or strings
attached.
He said that San Francisco is willing
to leave the Modesto and Turlock sup
ply alone, but that it is not willing
to pay the cost of storing water for
the irrigators nor to make any prom
ises Of sharing stored water.
1t was agreed that the parties
should go before Secretary Garfield
again tomorrow afternoon and try to
thresh the matter out once for all.
Mr.. Manson Is confident that San
Francisco will get what it asks for,
but he is impatient over the delay.
Representative Needham today led a
movement in the house which resulted
in the inclusion in the sundry civil ap-
preparation bill an appropriation of
100000 for the continuance of inves-
LEGATIONS of underground waters and
the gauging of streams.
The original amendment offered by
Needham, called for 100000 for this
work, but an amendment for half this
amount was finally agreed upon. The
chairman of the appropriations COM
mittee fought the amendment, but 1t
was passed by a large VOTE
