Water Supply Inadequate.

The situation is strong reminder OF the
inadequacy of the water supply of the
French capital. Paris obtains her water
from the sources Of five tributaries of the
Seine. including the Dhuys and the Vanne
The water Is brought to the city through
huge conduits. and there are small serv-
ice reservoirs in several quarters-notably
at Montmartre. Passy and Montsouris-
which serve to regulate the supply Under
this system. however. there is seldom a
strong pressure, and the quality OF the
water varies from quarter to quarter. ac-
cording to the source from which it Is
derived, as we'll as from season to season.
Hence the frequent warnings In the Paris
newspapers: "Parisiens. faites bouillir
votre eau
It is no uncommon experience at any
time Of the year to find the water in
cannot see the bottom. SO the wisdom of
the warning IL never held in doubt.
According to the latest reports. the
daily consumption Of water in Paris dur
pear to be more than seventy gallons
per head. but apparently this figure in
cludes watering the streets and operating
the public fountains.
There Is some promise that this formid-
able quantity some day will be steadily
forthcoming by means OF perfection OF
the existing system. but Parfsians are
asked to wait four years for this.

turns will begin to come in.
Total of $40, O65 in 1909.
The last issue of the Blue Book"
published in 1909, consisted OF two

Said to Have Confessed.

Duez is said to have confessed to the
examining magistrate to a deficit of $780,
600 In the accounts of the "congrega-
tions." and a bagatelle OF 100000 in some
other affairs. Revelations as to his per-
sonal expenditure seem to show that he
spent gay evenings In Montmartre and
made himself immensely popular with
the pleasure seekers the hill. Asso-
ciated with him are two or three sub
sidiary creatures, who also will have to
stand their trial before the jury of the
Seine.
There is much fear that Paris will have
to suffer this year through shortage Of
the water supply. Already Parisians have
been brought face to face with the reality
the water supply now being entirely sus-
pended between midnight and o'clock
in the morning. and 1t Is no secret that
the regular supply will be quite made
quate to provide for the greatly increas-
ed consumption of water during the hot
weather, II there is no change within a
week or So Filtered water from the river
last used six years ago-soon will have
to be pressed into service, and naturally
the authorities prefer to postpone the be-
ginning Of this system as long as they
can by reducing the regular supply for
some time beforehand.

Special Cablesram to The Star.
| PARIS, July 1-For some time past
there have been divisions in the royalist
party, but the Due dOrleans recently
endeavored to set matters right by call
ing on certain Of his followers to relin-
quish their positions. The duke now is
reported to have made another drastic
decision. The news is that he has sent
a telegram to NJ. Lesurier, general Sec
rotary OF the Correspondence Nation
ale, ordering him to stop the publication
of this paper. which Is the official organ
Of the party.
The order. 1t is stated, has been imme-
diately executed. and the paper will
cease to appear from yesterday. This
action on the part OF the duke has. ac-
cording to tho Paris Journal, had a
rather startling sequel. As he has not
been apprised Of the dukes intention. NJ.
de Laregle. who Is chief Of the political
bureau Of the pretender in France, has.
1t is rumored, handed in his resignation,
his action having been followed by sew
eral members of the royalist committee.
The trial OF Duez opens another page
OF humiliation for the republic. Duez
was one of the functionaries charged
with the compulsory winding up of the
property of the congregations after
their refusal to register under the as
sociations law. 1t was confidently ex-
pected that at least 500, O0O. 600 would re-
suit from the liquidation. 1t represented
the "gros lot of the anti-clericals.
But the result was quite different, and,
as II he had been a conqueror, NJ. Duez
made the millions Of the religious orders
vanish into thin air Opinions differ as
to whether he was consciously dishonest
or merely a fool, but his examination in
court has shed considerable light on his
transactions. which do not put him In a
very favorable position.

in the Outlook on the trust policy
of the Taft administration received
such unqualified approval in the
stock market.
AS long as the Sherman law was
not adequately enfor ced, Wall
street viewed with marked
hostility the Roosevelt schemes for
federal licenses and federal regula-
ton. 1t deprecated again. When
the supreme court decisions in the
Oil and Tobacco cases proved that
the Sherman law could be enforced.
that these combinations could be
broken up and that Mr.. Taft was
disposed to apply the law as it
stood gather than seek new iegislar
ton, Rig Bushes swung squarely
against the administration.
=. 1t is. natural that Wall street
SHOULD turn to Mr.. Roosevelt tor
help and@leardeEship at.this& time.
IF the Sherman law is. to be re-
'pealed, there must be some sort
of substitute which the public can
be induced to accept. The Roosc-
welt plan throws no hardships in
the way of Big Business. 1t
destroys the Sherman antitrust
law. 1t relieves the great corpo r
atoms Of the annoyance of state
regulation. 1t premits monopoly.
1t smothers competition. 1t re-
moves the menace of prison PEN
atlties. 1t creates new statutes
which must stand the test of twenty
years more of litigation and in
depreciation. 1t leaves every issue
Of actual governmental control n
be decided in the court of last
resort and bequeaths the socialistic
problem to the next generation. =,
This is highly acceptable to Wall
street, hut it can be brought about
only under a politial leadership
that is capable of foolinx all the
people some of the time and some
Of the peolDe all the time. In such
circumstances Big Business turns

F. 8 P. RAILROAD Matters

The Palisade correspondent Of
the Eureka Sentinel wrote as fol-
lows under date of December 1st :
Chadwick & Sykes, the contractors
who are rebuilding the Eureka &
Palisade railroad, now have over
100 men on their pay roll, and
more men are being added daily
to the force.
There are now three construc
tion camps. One is located at
Palisade. one at the Stump Ranch,
about three and a half miles out,
and at the Hay Ranch, 18 miles
from Palisade. -.
The work on the bridge across
Pine Greek, and on the two bridges
and trestle work in the "narrows,"
or Palisade canyon, has been some
what delayed during the week on
account Of a lack of bridge timbers
and ping, but considerable of
this material has been received
here during the past few days and
it is now expected that the bridge
across Pine Creek will be finished
by tomorrow so that the pile
driver can be taken into the can
ynn and commence its work there.
Besides the pile driving and
the two bridges to be constructed
on the east side of this canyon,
considerable blasting and grading
will be necessary, but it is figured
that this work can he completed
in the next ten days. and. this will
finish up the heaviest and only
difficult construction work that is
to be done on the whole job.
There Is a short stretch of road
near the Ennor Ranch that was
pretty badly washed out during
the food, and considerable work
will be necessary to- repair this,
but as the contractors now have
their forces well organized, it is
not thought this piece Of work will
give much trouble.
The contractors main grading
force is now stationed at the new
construction camp established at
the Hay Ranch this week, and the
men and teams are working both
north and south from this camp
and throwing up the grade at
rapid rate. Another crew of men
and teams is working south from
the Stump Ranch camp and is re-
ported to be making good progress
with the grade.
When the road through the
"narrows" has been completed so
that the construction train can get
through to where the grading
outfits have finished their work,
the completion Of the road to Eu-
reka is expected to go forward at
very rapid gait. The present
fine weather could not be i'm.
