BIG FLOW
OF WATER
IN DITCH

While laying tie 54-inch sewer on
Ninth street yesterday workmen
struck vein Of water that shot up
several inches from G-Inch hole IN
The bottom of the sewer.
The vein was struck on Ninth just
little ways OF Colorado avenue and
the water is flowing into Line creek
in quite heavy stream.
Mr Colby says that enough water is
coming through the ground here at the
present time to supply a water station
but that there is no way Of telling
when It may give out He explains the
flow OF water as coming off the quick
sand and limestone strata from the
springs that appear above ground IN
and around the Sparks addition.
A centrifugal pump is now being
used In an attempt to lower the water
so that the sewer can be put in at its
proper leyel. after which the water
from the well would not interfere.
The water is very cold and clear.

western railroads temporarily restrain
ed from advancing freight rates by
Judge David p Dyer Of the United
States circuit court yesterday will
meet here to plan an answer TO the
governments suit It was announced
last night BY an attorney for one Of the
roads that Attorney General Wicker
sham's petition for a permanent injunc-
ton viii be bitterly contested.
The principal ground upon which the
suit win be fought is the contention
that there is an agreement among the
railroads to advance freight rates in
violation of the Sherman antitrust law
If amy agreement at al is admitted
the railroad companies will contend
that it is legal in every respect and
that IL is necessary because Of present
industrial conditions to protect the In.
terests of the general public
