NEW YORK, July 2z.-Miss Ella
Monteford. who called herself an In
dependent private detective and said
she was formerly connected with Dis
trict Attorney Je-arne's office, was the
complainant in Night Court last even
ing against William Deckinger, a.
salesman, 81 years old. of San Fran
cisco. Miss Monteford made the ar
rest herself.
Miss Monteford's story was that as
she was coming up out of the subway
station at Lenox avenue and West
125th street she was accosted by the
man. who wanted her to &c ttike n
drink with him. She paid no atten-
tion to him and he followed her and
repeated his insult,
Miss Monteford thereupon slapped
his face and catching him by the ear
led him up the street untl she met
Policeman Corey. to whom h delip-
cred her prisoner.
Deckinger rad two friends-Benjamin
Robinson. of 1888 West 1SSth street, and
Sidney Sigmund, a button manufac-

were with Deckinger at the time. Deck
inger's story was that he accident
ally bumped the young woman on the
stairway. When he attempted to apol-
ogize she grabbed him. and iather than
create a scene he walked along with
her until they met the policeman.
"These men were down in the sub,
way with him. Your Honor" declared
Miss Monteforh. These other men
did no hear what he said to ne. as
they were too far away"
II do not believe your story. and
the prisoner is discharged" Magistrate
Barlow said.
Miss Monteford left the court roon

The Monster DAM.
The keokuk water power project
calls for dam the entire width of the
river. 1t is nothing new in the e71gi-
neering line, for similar dams have
been built but none so large and none
across the Mississippi. Smaller rivers
have had, their energy harnessed in a
similar, manner, and the Keokul plant
WIN De out duplicate of others, only
larger and with a far greater capacitv.
When completed it will be the second
largest water power plant in America,
oelng only exceeded by Nicaragua.
The dam is to be $500 feet in length,
ana is to be built of reinforced con-
crete, requiring many thousands of
tons OF material to construct.
in size it is to be thirty-seven feet
IN height, and the same number of
rect IN width at the bottom, being built
upon the solid rock bottom of the river
oed. The foundations will be buried
seven feet into this rocky bottom.
making the actual height of the dam
from the river bed but thirty feet. 1t
mas been carefully figured out that this
solld rock will make it strong enough
10 Withstand the mighty strain it will
be subjected to by the river When
completed the dam will be as one
giant length of stone toppled over into
the river by giant hands. Could all the
strength of the Mississippi loosen an
obstruction of that size and weight?

Construction of Dam.

Four fifths of the dam, or 4,4o0 feet
OF it, will extend in straight line
across the river, breasting the current
and receiving all of the strain of the
great mass of water. The balance of
the line will be less exposed to the
strain being built more in a line with
the current and parallel with the
shores. This part will be occupied by
the power house, 1.4O0 feet in length
and three stories in height.
The 4,4Q0 feet of dam is known as
the main spillway and arranged along
its length will be numerous openings
thru which the water may rush in
times of rising river When the
river is low, the gates along the spill
way will be closed, thus holding back
the water, but when the river becomes
nigh and roars like a giant, every
opening can be turned wide and the
water may rush thru it. Even should
this not give the river relief, the dam
is so built that the water can even go
over the dam and yet have no effect
upon the power plant The dam NAV be
entirely submerged from view, but the
electric dynamoes will still whirl and
hum. In making the plans for the dam.

But the change will be one for the
better and will add to the beauties of
the stream, instead of detracting from
them An immense lake will be formed
where now the river is a winding
stream. There will be no current in
TINS lake to amount to anything. and
1t will extend some thirty miles in
length or more, from keokuk to beyond
Fort Madison.
The present canal, built by the gov
eminent at an outlay of about seven
million dollars will be flooded;
drowned out completely and will dis
appear beneath the placid waters of

All of this has been provided for by
