ing of the diversion dam.
There is a natural point on the river.
where ii boxes up, some miles below

from the Arizona line. for the building
of the immense dam between the bluffs.
1t is planned to irrigate several thou
sands of acres of rich. level land. be-
tween this point and the town of
Lordsburg and in the middle and lower
sections of the river in this county.
The company is capitalized for So

so. 900 acres of land by irrigation and
the furnishing of electric power for
transportation purposes to the rich Mo-
gollon mining section and to other
points in the county.

been accomplished and a large amount
of eastern funds are now available,
which will mean the beginning of work

FRAUDS CHARGED
IN IRRIGATION
COlOradoans Are Arrested on
Information of Federal
Officers.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 15.-For
using the United States mails to further
an irrigation scheme in Colorado, de-
clared in a statement issued by the
interior department to be wildly and
flagrantly fraudulent" seven residents
of that state have been indicted as a
result of the combined efforts of the

The men are each under $500 bail.
Their names, as given out by the in
terror department are: ]. Albert
Wright, Frank White, John Gould,
Corydon A Woody. Homer A Gibson
Robert W. Rose and Sam n. Baker.
all of whom are said to. be officers in

charge, ii is said, is that they procured
about so citizens to make land entries
in the Montrose (Colorado) land dis
trict upon the representations that the
several corporations would construct an
irriga ton enterprise that would irri-
gate the lands taken by the country
men.
Entrymen, before making the entries,
were required TO agree or contract to
deed to a land and irrigation company
when patent was secured, all the land
except 10 or 20 acres of the 500 acres
in each entry, in return for which the
company was TO furnish the entryman
his water supply. The land involved
is valued at approximately $3.50, 900.

BEDOUIN REBELS
HOLD THEIR OWN
Are Still in Possession of
Captured Arms and
VilayetS.

Jerusalem, Dec. 15.-Reports from the
Sitrian Vilayet where Bedouin revolts
have recently been reported, indicate
that the uprising is serious one.
Many Turkish officials have been mas
sacred and at several military posts
the troops were annihilated.
An Englishman who was an eyewit-
ness of some of the scenes of the up
rising, brings a detailed account to this
city. Several companies OF troops, he
says. had been sent out with field guns
to effect the disarmament of the Be
douins. The troops were scattered in
small companies among the various
tribes in the district east of the Jordan
when the revolt broke out. The revolt
was carefully planned and executed.
The Bedouins were led by chief Me-
jilla of Ell Kerak, whose father was
a desert chieftain of international prom
inence. The Bedouins, Directing to the
disarmament program, planned an
armed resistance and attacked the
troops simultaneously at all stations
north of Macan. They were successful
at every point. completely annihilating
the troops, capturing Is field guns and
killing many of the Turkish railway
employees
The victorious revolters then moved
on FL Kerak, a town of about 1000 in
habitants. located 20 miles east OF the
Dead sea. Here, too, they were sue
cessful. They massacred the COVER
nors, and their families. looted and
burned the government buildings, and
robbed eight American tourists The
latter suffered no personal injury, how
ever.
1t is asserted that Christian residents
and their buildings were spared. The
garrison of Ell Kerak, consisting Of a
full battalion of infantry, is beleaguered
in the castle awaiting relief from Da-
