tie was started the first Of March
and since that time there have been

about one hundred men. The task
has been no light one and has been
made more difficult than was anti

verify OF the storms which swept
across the lake during the spring
months One OF these storms did
considerable damage and made it
necessary TO do over a great part OF
the work a second time. The equip

was of the most modern. Three mon.

on the job, were of the very latest

EALING OF
10 BARS OF
BULLION

The preliminary hearing OF William
Beck and Rhenbold Malken, the two
young men charged with the theft of
ten bars OF bullion, June is. was
taken up this morning, but will not be
concluded until some time tomorrow.
The question of the value of the
bullion. which had all the appearance
Of being lead is involved the gravity
OF the offcnse depending upon the as
say On this point w a Black of
Salt Lake testified this morning that
he had made ASSAYS Of five samples OF
bullion taken from the bars. and
found the metal 10 contain S135 per
ton OF silver. gold and lead the aY-
erage being over 130 ounces in silver.
81 per cent lead, and 54-hundrcdths
Of an ounce in gold, which would give
the ten bars a valuation of about S62.
making the theft of the bullion grand
larceny.
Nightwatchman Bennett OF the
Oregon Short Line testified to finding
the defendants and three other men
in the act of concealing the bars Of
bullion on the night In question and
OF arreSting and bringing them to the
station Three of the men. however.
made their escape by jumping
throGgh the window of a small cabin
where they were being held for the.
officers He stated that only five
bars OF the bullion had been retained,
the other five having been sent to
New York
County Attorney Jensen is OF the
opinion that it Will require most Of
tomorrow forenoon to complete the
introduction of testimony for the
state. 1t is expected. too. that the
young men will testify in their own
behalf They maintain that they know
nothing OF the theft Of the bullion, and
when caught In the act of covering
the bullion they were innocent of any
wrongdoing They say they observed
something peculiar in the sand where
the bullion was covered, and, through
curiosity to know what was hidden
there, uncovered the bars and were
recovering them when the watchman
came upon them They also claim
that the three men who ran away
from the watchman we're strangers to
them. with whom they had not asso-
ciated.

When the trains begin operating on
the new trcstle, the old track running
alongside oil II will be raised to ths
trestle's level This work will be
started at once as its completion will
be necessary before 1t can be truly
said that the six miles of double
track Is complete.
The new trestle is about five feet
above the old track, the elevation
being necessary because of the un-
certainty OF the level of the lake
At present the lake is fourteen inches
lower than it was three months ago,
but il is liable to rise to even a
greater height than that OF three
months ago during the rains Of the
fall Men who have watched the
lakes rise and fall say that 1t reach
es an exceedingly high point every
seven years and that when II begins
tc recede from this point there Is
little danger of It reaching the same
point again for another seven years.
This NAV or may not be true, but It
Is a fact that the railroad company
believes that the old approach To the
track across the lake was built too
low and that it is TO be lifted five
feet higher al the west side to meet
the grade of the trestle.
