pure water, and plenty of it" for
the asylum, penitentiary, state CAPT
tol building and the state fair
grounds was the slogan this forenoon
at a meeting of the State Board, and
after a prolonged discussion of the
subject it was decided to at once be-
gin the work of digging a we'll at the
asylum to relieve the water famine
at that institution, to install a hypo-
chloride system to purify the water,
and plans were outlined in a general
way for the digging of sufficient wells
at the penitentiary to afford a water
supply for the asylum, penitentiary,
state fair grounds and the capitol
building.
There were present at the meet
ing DR.. Steiner, superintendent of the
asylum; Superintendent James, of the
state prison, and also engineers from
the two institutions and a represen-
tatiye of the California Jewel Filter
ing system, and representative of
the Hypo-Chloride system.
Dr. Steiner started the discussion
with the statement that the asylum
was suffering for water-that 1t did
not have enough for the domestic
purposes of the institution, and that
immediate relief was needed. The
plan Of supplying the institution from
Mil creek was advanced, and the fill
terng system representative offered
to put in a filtering plant for $10,-
600, provided the state did the work
and furnished certain materials, and
$4,000 if the company was to do all
the work in connection with the in
stallation of the plant. Mr.. Jennings,
representing the Hypo-Chloride sys-
TEN, said that his plant purifies the
water, but does not clarity 1t, and
offered to put one in for sum rang
ing from $500 to $500 AS but $10,-
900 was appropriated by the last
legislature for increasing the supply

COnvicts to Dig Wells.
While the plan of securing water
from Mill creek was discussed at
length it was finally abandoned. In
favor of that of obtaining water
from wells AS immediate relief was
needed at the asylum, DR.. Steiner was
authorized to have dug 60-foot well
at once. Governor West sprung the
proposition of having the work done
by convict labor at a certain price,
and, after a consideration Of the sub
ject, it was decided to enter into ne
1otiations with the authorities at
the penitentiary relative to it, and an
offer will be submitted by them to
the doctor and the board this after
noon.
Plan Pure Water Supply.
With this subject disposed of the
board considered the proposition Of
having dug a number of wells at the
penitentiary to supply the asylum,
the penitentiary, the state fair
grounds and the capitol building. 1t
is estimated that an abundance of
pure water can be secured from this
source and that the work can be
done by the convicts at price which
will bring the wells within the ap-
preparation made by the legislature.
No definite action was taken along
this line, but everybody was enthused

Pure Water Needed.
1t was the consensus of opinion
that if the plan Is feasible that it
should be carried into execution. as
all of the institutions in question
are in need of pure water. At the
asylum the water from the wells is
used only for domestic purposes, and
the water on the lawns and for baths

New York, July 1S.-Washington
B. Thomas, chairman of the board
Of directors of the American Sugar
Refining company, was the chief wit
ness today before the house Htrd-
wick committee, which is investigat-
ing the activities of the alleged trust.
Thomas unwillingly admitted that
the trust had gobbled large share
of the preferred stock of the National
Sugar Refining company, and that
1t is backing chancery suit in New
Jersey with the object of forcing out
the common stockholders, principal
of whom is a son of Henry o. Have
meyer.
Thomas admitted that the National
company was in a position to become
a potent factor in the trade If the
trust did not control 1t, and that real
competition might result from its be-
ing foot loose.
Full admission that in September,
1898, absolute domination of the
sugar trade was aimed at by himself
and Haveymeyer was drawn from
Thomas reluctant lips. He admitted
that he, Haveymeyer and other trust
directors were named as committee
to arrange for the purchase of all
competing companies, and that they
planned to fix the price of sugar every
where. He added, however, that SO
far as he knew, the committee never
met.
Thomas admitted that the trust
paid an additional $4,000 subscription
to Willett and Gray's weekly sugar
trade journal, with the result that the
trust was able to print in the journal
an advertisement telling of the pres
ence of a certain bug in the grade Of
sugar the Independent manufactur-
ers marketed He said that he per
sonally did not approve such methods
and admitted it was dirty work.
