1.-THE engineering structures of the
various projects are, as whole, well
designed and we'll built. Some of
them, as the Pathfinder dam, the
Shoshone dam, the Roosevelt dam.
and the Gunnison tunnel, are monu-
mnats rejecting great credit on both
designer and builder.
Modern irrigation being a rela-
lively new art in this country. much
freedom was allowed and local en-
gineers in the design of minor struc-
lures. While this was wise policy
in the early stage of the work, it
has resulted in some complicated
and unnecessarily expensive struc-
lures. With the present knowledge
of the comparative merits of the diff
ferent types, it is believed that stand
ard designs of the simplest, satisfac-
tory type should be adopted for all
minor structures.
Wtaer Uncertain.
THE most uncertain feature of
nearly all the projects is the water
supply. This is under state control,
and in the prosecution of its work
the reclamation service bears the
same relation to the state as to a
private individual or corporation.
When the water riabts have been ad-
Indicated, the rights of the United
States are we'll defined, but else
where they are uncertain and may
prove to be materially different from
those assumed.
1T is recommended that, wher-
ever possible, steps be taken to Sc
cure an early adjudication Of water
rights on all projects where such -ad-
Indications have not yet been made
and that, pending such action, ex-
penditures be kept within the prob
able rights of the United States.
Cost Runs High.
Tine actual cost or competed
work has almost invariably exceeded
the original estimates, and, in the
case of some structures, has been two
or three times as large.
This increase in cost has been
the cause of much of the discomfort
among the settlers. 1t was partly
due to a general increase in the cost
of labor and materials, partly to
underestimate and an insufficient
allowance for contingencies, and
partly to the necessity of doing more
work than was originally contem-
plated

 HE UMPIRE JOB
VETERAN ASToNIsHEs ALL BY PACKING GRIP HALF HOUR BE- FORE GAME STARTS.

WASHINGTON. June 27-John F. Sheridan of the American League, for thirty years a professional um- pire, packed his baggage here half hour before time to go to the first game between Washington and New York and surprised Umpire Eagan with the announcement that he had shouted batter out'' for the last time. He left a short time after ward for Chicago, where he will re port his resignation to Johnson. pres ident of the American league, in the morning.
 Eagan said he had no idea of Sheridan's intention until the latter told him he had quit Eagan tele- graphed Sheridan's action to Presi- dent Johnson. Sheridan is the old est umpire in point of service in the country. He began at Columbus, lGa., in the old Southern League and has been in the American league ever since it's organization. He told Eagan he intended going home to San Jose, Calif.. where he has an undertaking establishment It is reported among the players that Sheridan may be induced to take the position of chief Of tres, the establishment of which office has been discussed in the American league.

STREET FORGE TAXES UP THE OLD MAINS
OTHER WORK IN PREPARATION FOR THE RAINY SEASON IS PROGRESSING.

The force under street superin- tendent Mcdonald is now being con centrated upon the work of excavat- ing the old fire mains and removing the pipe from Upper Tombstone ean- yon. This work has already pro gressed far. more than 40O0 feet of the old piping having been removed.
 The road on Laundry Hill. built in order to avoid the flood waters which each year completely riddled the old road and rendered effort expend- cd upon it abortiye, has been com pleted. This roadway reaches from the Metz property to the Gillis prop erty. a distance of about 800 feet
 When asked whether any attempt had been made to clear the subway from earth and other obstruction. Mir Mcdonald stated that such work had not been found necessary over the greater part of the big ditch, but had-been done wherever it had been found to be needed. Nearly all of the work in this direction consists of clearing the culverts leading from small canyons to the subway. These have all been prepared to carry the flood waters of the rainy season.
 No attempt will be made to work the roads of the outlying districts within the city limits until after the rainy season. Mir. Mcdonald states. The gravel and earth washed down by the floods will be utilized in smoothing them out after the rains have passed, thus avoiding the ex. pense of hauling.

MoRENcI AT DOUGLAS.

DOUGLAS, June 27--(SpeciaL)- )-
 Ward made some beautiful stops and throws yesterday. There is
 Well nigh perfect baseball. the classiest kind cs play. marked the re opening of Sportsman park yester day afternoon. The game was clos and exciting from start tC finish ans single run looked as big as ths new grandstand. The game went to Douglas to 2, but to loose it was no disgrace for Morenci, they played gilt edged ball most of the time- And that Morenci team, be it said, Is to be reckoned with. They are fast and can field and hit and have some pitchers on their staff besides. It was only by playing class A ball that the Demons got the victory, which they were determined to have.
 Kane had a splitter which would not break right yesterday and the re- suit was two innings that had the fans worrying until Harry settled QOWu 70 NOIk. HGn ut ndl iAC A1o renci team at his mercy, And that man Cummings pitched great ball as well. He had all the heaviest hit ters on the Douglas team about where he wanted them most of the time. This was attested by the way Matthewson, Guynup. LeBrand, Ward and Smith struck out, for Cummings breezed no less than twelve hitters. Kane was going some two for he whiffed six On the other hand the failure of the splitter to break proper ly was responsible for Kane's hitting four men and walking one. Cum mings gave four passes.
 The game opened dubiously for the Demons. After Jim Wilson had gone out via Ward to Guynup, Parks placed a clean bingle and Jake Will son put a ball out over HarDer's head for a tour of the four sacks.
 Douglas came back at Morenci.
Bisbee daily review., 1910-06-28

Ward few out to center. Smith was given pass and made a pretty steal of second. Harper was there with the necessary bingle to score Tommy. stole second as Guynup tanned and died right there when Matthewson breezed.
 In the second things again looked blue for the Demons. Kane was wild because his expectoration glob- ule refused to fracture in accordance with his desires. Holman flew out to Carlson. and O'Brien singled. Names received one in the slats, Cummins was a victim of the strike habit, Jim Wilson was hit and the bases full but Kane breezed Parks. From then on Harry had the Morenci hitters where he wanted them.
 It was in the third that Douglas tied the score. Ward bit at three Tommy Smith made a single and a timely single and pilfer Of second Guynup laced out a ripple after liar per had put a fly to the center field CT. Matty tried to place a Texas leaguer. but it was short and was gobbled by O'Brien.
 In the fourth Douglas won the game. Holman made a beautiful catch of LeBrand's skyscraper foul Ford went out O'Brien to Names and Carlson was up. The lanky young ster placed a clean three-bagger and waited for Kane to bring him home Harry waited for four wide ones and went to first. This was the signal for some inside ball" for Harry started slowly for second. to draw the throw He was successful and pranced back and forth with the two infielders trying to catch him while Carlson edged away from third un. til he had the proper lead. Then a dash. just as Names was tossing the ball to O'Brien. The latter snapped i the ball to the plate. but was a fraction of a second late and Carl son was across the pan. Kane re- turned to first, laughing. and died there when Ward flew out to second.
 In the sixth Carlson made a re markable catch of long foul on of O'Brien's bat, getting the ball foot from the ground. after a long, hard run. From there on neither team had much of a chance for a score.

MEETING THIS
 EVENING WILL
 BE: IMPORTANT
Every Member of Fourth of July Committee Urged to Attend Last Meeting Before the Big Doings.

This evening, when the last regular meeting offthe Fourth of July com mittee is held at the city hall. re- ports will show that practically ev- cry detail which would go toward making the local celebration a sue cess has been attended to by the committeeman.
 As a result of a conference held with E. c. Mustains, travelling freight and passenger agent for the F P. & s. w., during a visit paid to this city yesterday, it is probable that a special train will be run from Cana nea for the occasion and another. from Douglas. while it is probable that large crowds will attend from Tombstone. Benson and other nearby points. coming in on the regular trains.
 The finance committee has prae. tically completed collections and has on hand about $S,500, enough to carry the celebration through in the manner desired, permitting ample finances for payment of prize awards and the indebtedness incurred last year as well.
 A good program has been prepar- ed from every standpoint. Sunday afternoon the tug of war between the C. & A. and Copper Queen teams will take place and it is probable that the band contests will also be held on that day.
 Monday will be devoted to in town sports and hose races. while at Warren a double header game of ball will be played between Bis bee and Douglas. During the even ing an elaborate fireworks display will be the only attraction in this city.
 Numerous entries for every ath- letic event have been received, and each feature of the entire program promises to be beyond all doubt the best of it's character ever seen in this city.
 It is earnestly requested that each member of the committee be present this evening, as it is ex- tremely important that every detail be finally discussed and conclusion on several mOoted questions reached. The meeting, as the last one before the celebration of Sunday and Mon day, assumes importance that other wise it would lack. and demands the presence of the committee as a whole.

CACTUS LEAGUE sTANDINe

Only the expected occurred Sunday afternoon when Bisbee again defeated Clifton by the score of 10 to 4. A crowd of about coo was present.
 The game was practically feature less. save for some three-hase hits and two double plays by Clifton, Cliff ford, Lamar and Grindle. secured the three baggers. Quilting to Bostiek; Baroldy to Quilting to Bostick were the two double plays mentioned, each of which retired Bisbee.
 The game was one of the fastest played here for some time. in spite of the big score occupying only an hour and ten minutes. Doan struck out five men and gave one base on balls He was touched up tor six teen safe hits, however, by the Clim Dwellers. Clifford gave seven bases on balls and struck out but enc man. His delivery was hit safe nine times by the Miners. The two base hits read like list of players, there being seven secured dIring the game.
 Mackey's ump,ring was git edged and but one disputed decision was had when he called. Scanlon out in the first for interfering with Graham when handling the ball.
 The second inning was the one which spelled defeat for the Clis Dwellers, as Clieord gave three bases on balls. five runs being scored on two safe hits.

A working agreement has 'been en- tered into between the Imperial Copper Company and the Fl Tiro Copper Company. both of Silver Bell, where by some of the churn drills of the Imperial company will be used in prospecting the Fl Tiro ground.
 The properties of the two compan- ies adjoin, and recent developments at Fl Tiro indicate that the use of ehurn drills will quickly develop a large tonnage of porphyry ore. Con siderable drilling has been done on the Imperial ground proving beyond question the existance of large bO- dies of porphyry copper ore of good commercial grade. averaging better than two per cent. It is believed that
