 Sir: Your letter of August IS has been received, requesting information in regard to the San Carlos project in Arizona. - Extensive investigations in connec tion with this project established the fact that the immense quantity of sed- iment carried by the Gila river would fill up the reservoir in q relatively short space of time. After full exam ination and discussion of the problem board of engineers of the reclamation service reported that the rapidity with which the reservoir site at San Carlos would fill and the local impracticability of sluiciug ont the material within feasible limits of cost, together with certain engineering difficulties of con struction. rendered this project imprae- ticabie. and recommended that 1t be abandoned in favor of reservoirs fur ther up. A careful examination of the upper waters of the river disclose several feasible sites from which it would be preferable to irrigate the lands in this vicinity. Such reservoir sites have been withdrawn from entry and are being hetd for possible future development if project be taken up in the valley under the reclamation act. The lands withdrawn for the San Carlos reservoir were restored to entry by departmental orders of January p, 1907, and September l5, 1908, the abandonment of the San Carlos project having been ordered by the secretary of the interior on January 6, 1906.

 Dear Sir:
 y reason for the government abandoning the San Carlos reservoir, 1 have to say that there are five reasons, as follows: l. The depth of bedrock is too great. ?. The character of the dam site is bad, as fault occurs at this point. 3. The dip of the strata is in the wrong direction.
 4. The amount of silt carried by the Gila river is so great that the reser- voir built to a feasible height would be filled up within a comparatively short time.
 }. The cost per acre for a project based on this reservoir would be too great to make the project feasible.
 Yours very truly,
 LOUIS c. HILL,
 Supervising engineer. ?. The Arizona & Eastern Railroad company has surveyed and located a line of railroad running from a connec- tion with the G. V.

the legislative situation at Washing
ton, President Taft declared with a
great deal of emphasis and amid an
outburst of applause that the railroad
bill has not been emasculated in any
vital way and predicted that salts
factory law would be passed
The bill" said the President, still
retains its important features, and
am hopeful that within the next two
weeks we shall see the passage of
the bill in both Houses, the adjust
ment of the differences between the
two Houses and its final enactment"
The President declared that the
newspaper reports of the Gripping Of
he railroad bill had been greatly ex-
aggerated and he set out In detail the
provisions Of the measure as II now
Stands. He said he hoped the provis-
ion which permits a road owning fifty
pr cent. Of the stock of a competing
road to acquire the remaining stock
would be restored and told why.
In his review Of ending legislation
Mr.. Taft expressed the belief that the
following measures will be enacted
into law: Statehood for Arizona and

ing bill OF the conservation meas

BURGLARS KILL TWO
Physicians Housekeeper and Butter
Murdered in New York.

New York, May 10.-Evidently the
victims of burglars. Charles w. Be-
man, Hindoo butler, and Margaret
Meshan, an aged housekeeper, were
found murdered last night in the resi-
dence of Dr. Mott d. Cannon at 1871
West One Hundred and Twenty-sec-
ond street.
The two had been killed some time
between 2:S0 and SAB o'clock in the
afternoon, during the physicians alb
sence.
The butler, who was % years old,
had been shot through the mouth.
There was another wound on his fore
head and one on the back of the
neck. The last two were apparently
inflicted by jimmy. The old house
keeper had an ugly bullet wound in
the back of her head and had also
been beaten with some blunt instru-
ment
Examination of the physician g
study in the rear Of the third floor of
the residence showed that the top
drawer of a bureau had been jimmied
open and 500 in bills, 500 in silver
and several valuable gold stickpins
taken. Nothing else in the house was
touched. DR.. Cannon does not know

George and Queen Mary. The party
drove Immediately to Buckingham
palace, where they viewed the body
of the late king. A brief religious
service was held in the chapel.
King George, in a letter to the the
atrical managers, expressed the wish
that the theaters reopen until the day
of the funeral, on account Of the num-
Der of people that would be thrown
out of work by the closing Of the
houses, and this will be carried out.
The king issued another letter in
which he said: Knowing so well the
feelings of my beloved father, am
sure that 1t would be contrary to his
wishes that there should be an inter
ruption tc the enjoyment of the pub
lie during the Whitsuntide holiday.
! therefore hope that the general
mourning will not prevent my people
from taking the usual advantages OF
the various opportunities afforded
them for the coming DAYS"

census enumerator George A. Fis-

The enumerator who speaks eight
languages, went through the house in
the daytime and got what he suppos-
ed were the names Of neary all in the
house. He returned in the evening
and found that he had obtained only
about half the names in the daytime.
II is said that the house n occupied

WANTS NO CHANGE
IN HINMAN-GREEN
PRIMARY BILL
Hughes Says Law Should Be
Enacted as it Stands
URGES IMMEDIATE ACTION
Anything Less Than Adoption Would
Be Regarded as Defeat Of Reform
Policies

Binghamton, May 10.--In a speech
before the University Club here last
night Gov. Hughes again urged the
enactment of the Hinman-Green d.
rect nominations bill which will come
up for action in the Assembly this
week. He showed Enthusiastically that
he had not abated one jot or title
from the views anunciated by him
during the last two years and that the
adoption of any halfway measure
would, in his judgment. be cheating
the people out of their rights.
The governor made it plain that he
would regard the substitution OF any
of the other primary bills pending in
the Legislature as a substantial defeat
of the principle for which he has con.
tended
Disclaiming any effort to influence
a single vote on the measure, he ex-
pressed the sincere hope that this
bill would be brought up and fully dis
cussed on the floor of the legislature.
With reference to the continuation
of party conventions, the Governor
declared his unalterable opposition to
any measure embodying such prin-
ciple. Under present conditions, he
insisted, the most important commit
tees. which the virtually self-per-
petuating bodies" actually select the
candidates and use conventions mere
ly to record their wishes.
Touching the Cobb bill, which pro-
vides for the nomination of Senators
and Assemblymen only at the primar-
les, and that not before 1871 the Gov
ernor expressed his emphatic dissent.
"A policy of postponment such as
has been proposed" he said, would
| inevitably intensity controversy and
create issues which otherwise could
be avoided. II would settle nothing.
II is idle to think that il would end
discussion or dispose even temporari-
ly of the existing demand II would
have, in my judgment, precisely the
opposite effect"
Takin- up the objection that has
been urged that fusion in New York
City would be impossible under a
system of direct nominations, Gov.
| Hughes said:
Now ! desire to say a word about
the situation in the city OF Few York.
That Is unique. II represents the
transition period between the activi-
~ of national party organ izations and
the principle of non-pa. tisanship in
municipal affairs which the constitu-
tional amendment providing for mu-
ricipal elections in odd-numbered
ears was intended to advance.
While public sentiment justifes party
nominations for municipal Offices.
they Will continue. Rut in New York
I City under the conditions existing
there. efforts have been made through
fusion movements to bring the cIti-
zens together in support of some
thing like non-partisan administra-
! ton.
III there Is a real sentiment for
fusion in the party IL will be express
ed at the primary and this indeed will
give an opportunity for an actual ex-
preston with regard to the candi-
dates believed to have the greatest
strength for purposes Of fusion. II
the designations are so lacking IN
strength that they are repudiated at
the primary, they will form very
slight reliance for the success OF the
fusion cause"
