'UNSUSPECTING MESSENGER
BOY is SWINDLED
Youth Gives Fur Coat of Mrs. r.
E. MuIcahy to Wrong Man

Because an unsophisticated messen-
ger boy was too willing to give up his
burden, Mrs. R. E. Mulcahy. who lives
at the st. Francis, is without glorious
fur coat worth $3.50. r. E. Mulcahy,
manager of E. F. Hutton & Co., bro
kers, bought the coat as a gift to his
wife. A sharp swindler watched the
boy leaving the furrier's and followed
him to the ST. Francis.
AS the boy was about to enter the
hotel the swindler approached the lad,
saying that he believed that the boy
had parcel for Mrs. Mulcahy, that he
was Mr.. Mulcahy and with the quick
passage of so cents drew the costly
coat from the messengers hands
The result is that Mulcahy paid the
money in vain, and Mrs. Mulcahy did
not wear the fur coat to the theater
Saturday night as she had planned.
No clew to the offenders identity
has been obtained.

Weather Bureaus Warming

Although somewhat handicapped be-
cause of interrupted communication,
the local weather bureau yesterday
received news of the dangerous flood
situations in the Sacramento and San
JOAQUIN valleys It was reported that
Of Lathrop has been submerged and the
food during last night approached the
outskirts Of the town. In that section
OF the state il has been raining con-
tinuously for two days. and rivers fed
by the melting snow have broken
through levees at many points.
Intermittent showers today and
continued warm spell We're forecast
last night by the weather bureau. and
unless different conditions prevail to-
day danger from food in the Sacra-
nento valley will be heightened The
local forecaster took a pessimistic view
Of the outlook for today, asserting that
upon the Sierras melted as rapidly as
Il did yesterday, the Sacramento and
San Joaquin valleys would suffer
greatly.
The change in atmosphere from cold
70 warm occurred Saturday night all
over the state and continued through
out yesterday and last night. The
snow Saturday. but at 5 o'clock yester-
Gay afternoon II had melted TO SO
inches.
For rapid melting this was consid-
cred q record With a general rise of
temperature all over the northern por-
by the weather bureau, Indications are
that the snow viii have melted down to
about 60 inches today, and in that
event the rivers will continue high
Warning Of this state Of affairs has
been displayed throughout both valleys.

Flood Districts Should
Build Uniform LeVees
BY GEORGE RANDLE,.
-ity Engineer of Sacramento
Especial Dispatch to The Call

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 17.-Until all
reclamation districts in Sacramento
valley are under one controlling
body so that a system of levee con-
struction can be followed, the situa-
tlons caused by these floods will
always be hard to cope with.
There is no system about levee
building followed by the districts
now. They build as they see fit and
there is no uniformity. Instead Of
building levees with common inter
ests in mind the districts construct
with the idea of their own protec-
tion only. Accordingly, many of
the districts are really lighting each
other when they should be working
in harmony in this great undertake
Ing. Legislation along this line
would bring great relief.
The situation, to my mind. is
growing more serious each year.
More reclamation districts are be-
Ing added up the valley and the
decrease of the area of the flooded

What Should Be Done to
Prevent Damage by Flood
BY NATHANIEL ELLERY,
State Engineer
[Speeiol Dispatch to The Calll

given point at the velocity of 10
feet per second. This calculation
is based on figures and estimates
obtained by the United States geo.
logical survey under the direction
of w. E. Clapp during the flood
flow of March. 1907.
1t is therefore of the most vital
Importance to have a cenral con-
troll and authority over levee loca-
tion and construction in order that
the practice of placing the levees
on the very edge of the river bank
may be prevented, that ample river
capacity may be left for flood flow,
and that any one man or district
may not place his or its levee to
the certain detriment of a neighbor.
A Decentralization of the levee
work of the Sacramento valley is
greatly needed. and until something
of the nature indicated above is OBJ
tained little or no relief from flood
conditions can be expected. Should
we continue along present reclama-
tion lines it is almost certain that
every flood will cause great loss
and destruction, keep land owners in
constant fear and retard the devel-
opment of vast and rich lands along
the Sacramento river.
The great problem Of the flood
control for this river can be solved
by widening the space between
levees that the cross sectional area
may be sufficient to carry the heav-
lest foods at a normal velocity. It
is earnestly believed that both navi-
cation and food control can be
treated in such a way as to benefit
both. Besides widening the space
between levees, the mouth of the
Sacramento river should be cut out
or widened and Strengthened to per-
nit of an easy flow of the flood
waters. 1t is now CONSTRUCTED at
this point, and whenever the Yolo.
basin waters rush through Cache
slough into the river, an engorge-
ment takes place which hacks up
the food waters against the levees.
Again, whenever the tidal waters
meet the flood. flow, there must be
ample lateral space to carry the
river waters over the crest of the
tide into Suisun bay.
The dredging of the lower reaches
of the Sacramento is of considera-
BILE Importance to navigation, while
1t but slightly assists the passage
of flood flow. It is positively sure
that within the tidal range, the
river must have width rather than
depth to reduce the flood elevation.
After the work of opening the
mouth Of the river is accomplished,
then should all the sharp bends be
cut off and the course of the flow
ing water thereby Strengthened.
This work should proceed from the
mouth of the river toward its
source.
