SOME DETAILS
OF THE GREAT
De WEESE PROJECT

canal will follow the foothills down
the valley TO the st. Charles river in
the vicinity of Pueblo. the eastern
terminus of the undertaking. There
will be six tunnels on the line of the
south side canal, the longest of which
will be 1,450 feet. These tunnels will
be ten feet in height and fifteen feet
in length. There will also be four
reservoirs along its route east OF
Florence and they will have a COM
bined capacity of 10000 acre feet.
1t is computed that there will be un-
der the south side ditch approximatc-
ly 100000 acres of irrigable land.
The main diversion canal for the
reclamation of lands on the north
side of the Arkansas will cross the
river at the mouth of Grape creek by
means of a siphon supported on bridge
trusses and will be conveyed along
the grade of the old state ditch for
about five miles to a point directly
north OF Canon City. after which 1t
will follow an original survey as
tar east as Fountain creek. south of
Colorado Springs.
At least two tunnels will be re-
quired for conveying water along the
north side ditch Ind across Four Mile
creek. one OF the longest and highest
viaducts in the United States will be
built. II will be constructed Of con-
CT etc and will be 126 feet in height
and about 1900 feet long. Beaver
creek will be crossed by the same
means. but the engineering and con-
struction difficulties are far less there
than on Four Mile creek. There will
be three reservoirs for supplying the
north side canal with water and they
will have an aggregate capacity of
100000 acre feet. The amount of
land to be brought under irrigation by
the north side diversion canal will
equal, II not exceed the extent OF ter
ritory to be reclaimed on the south
side of the river.
The construction OF an irrigation
enterprise of such huge proportions
in a mountain country naturally in
wolves many engineering problems
and picturesque features, and when
completed, Colorado Southern Irri-
cation company's system will be one
OF the most spectacular as we'll as
one of the most magnificent in the
world.
On account of the great amount of
engineering detail remaining 10 be
done in connection with the PROPOSE
ton the contractors have been unable
to sub-let a very large part OF the
construction, although five or six
miles of the south side diversion can
al and all OF the tunnels along It's
course have been awarded to C. Ditt-
mer and company OF Pueblo. who arc
now at work.
There will be something like one
hundred and sixty miles of diversion
canals, about equally divided between
the north and south sides of the river
In addition there will be nearly two
hundred miles of laterals for the pur-
pose OF conveying the water from
me main bitches to the land where
IL is needed for agricultural uses.
In the course Of few weeks thous-
ands Of men will be at work on the
enterprise and the undertaking will
be carried on as rapidly as cfrcum-
stances Will permit until the task f.
completed. It is the intention to ga,
the south side canal finished in time
for the irrigation season of 1911.

PREPARING TO NAME
NEW PRINCE OF WALES
Duke of Cornwall, King George
Eldest Son, Is Sixteen
Years Old.

LONDON, May 25.-The problem already
has been taken up Of creating the Duke
OF Cornwall, the heir apparent, Prince of
Wales
That title in due time must he con
ferred on the eldest son of King George,
who is now sixteen years old. even though
the Duke of Connaught be kept as regent
TO represent the prince at public func-
tons.
1t is conten6ed now that the investiture
of the young duke with the title OF Prince
of Wales should be the stately and sym
bolic ceremony of old times. To the gift
of ring, which is the most symbolic
ceremony by which Harry of Monmouth
created the first Prince of Wales, 1t is
insisted that there should be added the
golden toraues, which distinguish the
princes or the ancient Celts. The cere-
mony would be performed by the arch
druid, in full gorsedd. for 1t is held that
II should never be forgotten that the lad
would be Prince of Wales even as his
father would be King of the Tudors by
virtue OF his descent from Harry Tudor

ED|cT IS SWEEPING
Privileges Conferred on Places
of Amusement,
EXTEND TO BEER GARDENS
Five-Cent Theaters Permitted to
Open Sunday Afternoon-Amend-
ment to Regulations.

Moving picture shows, beer gardens,
cheap vaudeville performances and open
air and-dance-a and biograph parks
are taken out of that part Of the police
regulations which, it was said, threaten
ed to sadden the lives of many NOV
ing picture fan and beer garden enthusi-
asst during the approaching heated term.
Not only that, but the Commissioners
have ordered that the five-cent show joy
need not be confined or restrained Sun
days. but that between 3 o'clock in the
afternoon and 1890 o'clock at night the
moving pictures, with their accompani-
ments. may be conducted in full blast
By an official order of the Commits
sloners, the moving picture man is per-
m1tted to pay the piano conduct his
orchestra right up to midnight on week
days, provided he does not make so much
noise that the neighbors cannot sleep.
This also aples to the al fresco refresh
ment stations, commonly called beer
gardens.
Protest Entered.
For time there was great excitement
among the musicians, the proprietors of
beer gardens. open air shows and NOV
ing picture palaces because of the police
regulation drawn UP last year, which pro-
SO described in the regulation as to in
Guide these pleasure resorts
1t was explained that the regulation was
framed to give certain neighborhoods a
rehef from the itinerant vacant lot ex-
horter and noisy religious meetings after
10 o'clock in the evening
however, there was great chance that
the city would hear nothing of the tink-
ing piano and the violin obligato as the
moving hlm spun rapidly past. if this reg
ulation should be strictly enforced. Con-
sequently the moving picture men and the
organized musicians protested to the
commissioners. 1t was shown that many
or the SHOWS would have to go out of
business; that many musicians had been
engaged for the entire summer and would
suffer loss if the regulations were CON
strued so as to hit these five and ten cent
theaters and beer gardens.
some OF the moving picture men told
the Commissioners that a moving picture
show simply had to have music to live.

TO CONTROL
QUARTER OF A MILLION VOTED
FOR TARIFF INQUIRY.
Chairman Tawney Succeeds in Re-
tanning Item in the Sundry Civil
Appropriation Bill.

Chairman Tawney of the House appro-
priat!ons committee failed yesterday in
his effort to retain in the sundry civil
appropriation bill the provision creating a
tariff board with enlarged powers to
make comprehensive investigation to
determine the cost of production of manu-
featured articles at home and abroad. He
did succeed. however. in retaining in the
measure the appropriation Of $4,000
which the President may use for this
purpose.
President Taft was highly in favor of
the provision as originally drawn by Mr.
Tawney and contained in the bill, as it
was believed that its approval by Con-
gress would do good deal toward allay-
ing the irritation which has been mani
tested in various sections of the country,
but particularly in the middle west,
against the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill
In his effort to keep the original pro-
vision, or something similar, in the BILL
Mr.. Tawney redrafted the paragraph sew

HALT IN THE GAT|NS CASE
PROCEEDINGS BEFORE GRAND
JURY POSTPONED BY COURT.
Motion Made by Counsel for De-
PENDANT for Explanation of Con-
spiracy Law.

The attempt of the Department Of JUS
tice to reindict Joseph~ Gatins Of New
York for his alleged connection with the
so-called bucket shop business of Price
& CO., was halted today. Attor-
ney Henry E. Davis. who appeared for
Mr. Gatins. asked Justice Gould OF the
grand jury into court, and to instruct 1t
concerning the law of conspiracy.
Justice Gould. remarking that while the
application was unusual and an innova-
ton in the local criminal practice, 1t was
not improper. suggested that before any
action should be taken notice ought to be
given to the department. He set next
Tuesday as the time for hearing counsel
on the application, until when he directed
that no action be taken by the grand jury.
Wants Jury Instructed.
Mr. Davis requested the court to explain
to the grand jurors what actions were
necessary to make a man amenable to q
charge of conspiracy.
He declared Mr.. Gatins was never a
stockholder OF the corporation complain
ed Of and had never been in the office OF
the company in Baltimore nor of it's
Washington correspondent. He insisted
that if the grand jury had been apprised
CT the true state OF facts and the law of
conspiracy no indictment could have been
returned.
Gatins was indicted April under the
name of Joseph Gaskins. and recently
filed a plea in abatement
The government yesterday called the
matter to the attention of the grand
jury for the purpose Of correcting the
error.
