ABUSES WILL TAKE WORK
FROM WEEKS HANDS.

Green river gravity system is
in bad.
Much of the trouble is due to
Nick Lawson.
Some of it is on Ben Weeks.
The flood has played havoc with
things this last week.
And 1t Is going to cost thous-
ands of dollars more than was
planned.
The city commission went over
the work from the headworks to
Enumclaw yesterday on foot.
Petit fell in the river and Free
land sports four big blisters today
and all the commissioners are
tired out.
Weeks Is Ousted.
AS a result Of the trip Engineer
J. G. Manley will be put in COM
plete charge of the plant.
The trip demonstrated that the
plant was started before it was
ready and on plans that were in
complete. This is due to Nick
Lawson. Engineer Preble insists
that Nick ran everything.
Contracts were let without any
right of way. Plans were chang
ed. Places that need protecting
from floods were entirely over
looked and will have to be at

How much no one knows yet.
1t may be large. Possibly $780,
600 before it is through with.
Weeks Came In.
Then Ben Weeks came on the
scene. He retained Preble. Pre-
Bile says he still was given no
authority.
Weeks apparently was tied hand
and foot to the Royal Arch or
other influence. The first thing he
did was stock up with about all
the tinhorn gamblers In town for
inspectors. That he personally
tried to make good there is no
doubt.
Weeks is willing to get out, it
Is said.
The commissioners found good
work had been done generally but
there were some weak spots. In
some places extra concrete had
been put in, apparently just to

The flood has been bad. To
save the pipe from floating away
holes were bored in it. The COM
missiOners say these slaves will
all have to come out. In many
places the pipe is raised out of
the ditch.
1t must be placed back.
One place section has been
torn out entirely by landslide.
1t will have to be protected by a
concrete wall. Some of this e8-
pense will fall on the contractor
but much of 1t on the city.
Anyway the commission is going
to try to straighten things out.

| RICHMOND. Va, Nov. "a
Calmly and smilingly, almost In
different. Henry Clay Beattie. jr.,
walked to his death In the electric
chair this morning and paid the
penalty for the murder of his
young wife.
The execution required just
three minutes. The two guards
entered with the doomed man,
Rev. ]. ]. Fix and Rev. BENJAMIN
Dannis and DR.. w. T. Oppenheim-
Ter, penitentiary physician, follow

Beattie remained unshaken. His
sleep last night was untroubled
and a gloomy morning failed to
bring a tremor. He knelt for a
brief prayer and then began his
march to the death chamber.
Rev. Mr.. Fix handed the pris-
oner a Bible.
Sees Fatal Chair.
The windowless death chamber
was dark as Beattie entered, the
incandescent globes above the pol
ished oak chair suddenly bursting
into light as he crossed the thres-
hold. The rest of the room re-
mained in darkness, throwing the
instrument of death into startling
relief. Beattie surveyed the chair
calmly and without flinching.
Beattie shook hands with the
two ministers murmured a prayer
and advanced coolly to the chair

with calculating deliberation to
accommodate the stiff, heavy
straps. The black cap was pulled
over his head.
There was not a tremor as Sup

A morbid crowd awaited out

rain. At 1890 o'clock Superintend-
ent Wood appeared.
"It is all over" he said.
A big policeman shouted to the
expectant crowd:
"Well, he's gone, so you had
better move on out of here now. "
Why He Killed Her.
Beattie admitted in his confess
sion that he had decided that his
wife was In his way and that he
wanted to live with Beulah Bin
ford. He said he did not intend
to marry Beulah.
| The murder was deliberately
planned, according to Beattie. He
arranged In advance to tell the
story of the mysterious highway
man who shot the wife. His nerve
was sufficient to carry out his
plot, but he was not good
enough actor.
The confession was final blow
to Beattie's father, who remem-
bering his duty to society, said:
