Conservation Fight.

Washington, June 6.-Conserva-
ton legislation in the senate and the
postal savings bank bill in the house
constitute the features of the con-
gresslonal program for the week.
The general opinion is that both of
these measures will be voted on be-
fore Saturday night and that they
will be sent TO conference.
Party lines will be dissolved and
new lines of insurgency developed
in the senate in connection with the
public land withdrawal bill Some of
the western members are preparing
to make vigorous assaults on the
Roosevelt-Garfeld administration of
the public domain, especially as re-
CARDS the blanket Withdrawals of
large areas. II is not improbable
that this course will lead. 10 some bit
ter criticism of the more conserva-
tive policies of the aft-BaIlinger
administration of the land laws.
The discussions viii arise over the
consideration OF the administration
bill. which already has. passed the
house. to authorize the president to
withdraw public lands for purpose of
classification for the protection of
water power sites. for forest reserves
and to prevent mineral lands from
falling into the hands of monopo-
lies.
Taft Bill VIII Pass.
Many western senators, notably
Senators Warren and Clark, of Wy

of Colorado. express fear that the en-
actment of this measure would mark
the return of the policy of locking
up" great tracts of land so that the
western states might be deprived of
the benefits that would accrue to
them from their development.

DITCH TENDER
FOUND DEAD
Continued from Page 1

he exact manner in which FerraSci
came to his death can only be surmised.
He was alone at the time, but all cir
cumstanceS point to death from acciden-
tai drowning. He was last seen alive
by Cory Mckenzie, another employe
along the ditch about five O'Clock Sun
day evening" at half an hours walk
from the flume where he is believed to
have fallen into the ditch and more
than five miles above the place where
the body was afterwards recovered from
its watery grave. Mckenzie did not
speak to him, simply saw him at a dis
lance The following morning word
was scent along the line of the ditch
that Ferracsi was missing, and search
was at once instituted About noon
Monday, john D. Walker foreman on
the ditch found the body of the unfor-
tunate man in the canal about quarter
of mile above the Petty reservoir
and fully five miles below the flume
where the mishap is supposed to have
occurred. With the aid of Mr. Kimball,
the body was taken from the water and
afterwards carried to the camp at the
Petty reservoir.
There was cut across his forehead.
also slight scalp wound, which may
have been caused by striking against
some object. Both were evidently made
while living, and recently. His hat
was found lodged against the screen of
the Petty reservoir, quarter of a mile
below the place where the body was re-
covered. 1t seems that the water had
been turned off the ditch during Sunday
so as to enable some repairing to be
done. This left the Hume and beat of
the deceased dry that day, and gave him
a rest A strip of planking eighteen
inches wide placed over the top of the
Hume formed path for the ditchtender
to pass to and fro over his beat. II is
the experience Of employees that it is
more difficult to travel over the flume
when the water is turned off than when
the ditch is full. The theory is that in
crossing this flume, when dry, Ferrasci
lost his balance, and in falling struck
his head against the timber, rendering
him unconscious. That while he lay
helpless the water came along, and he
was drowned.
Coroner H. E. Potter summoned a Jury
the same evening. The remains were
brought to Jackson, and the inquest was
held Tuesday morning, before the fol-
lowing jurors: Carlo Govannoni,
John Millosovich, A. B. Arditto, w.

returned a verdict that deceased, Tobia
Ferasci, was a native of Cognasco,
Switzerland, aged 40 years, and came to
his death on the 9Th day of May, 1910,
by accidental drowning in the upper
Standard canal of the Pacific Gas and
Electric Corporation.
