GENERAL MARKET REPORT.

New York. October 81, 1911.
GRAIN-WHEAT-It was the general inn
preston among wheat traders that big holders
in the West, who own practically all the cash
wheat i'm Chicago. were heavy sellers, and
there was general liquidation, which resulted
in decline OF 2d2Sc per bushel This rep
resented a total loss OF 596c from the high
point OF about ten days ago. News was
bearsh both from the interior and from
Europe. Receipts at Western points were
heavy, and with stocks piing up at the prin-
cipsl distributing points, there was a as
position to dispose of long wheat especially
as cash demand was poor. and there was an
absence of export inquiry Freight engage

Through Scarcity of Water.

TRENTON, Feb. 13.-John Z. Rein
hardt. of East Orange, has brought suit
in the Supreme Court against the city
OF East Orange to recover $10.0 600 lam
ages, which he claims he has suffered
by the loss of water on his property,
caused by the driving of artesian wells
by East Orange near his farm in Liy-
ingston Township.
The proceedings are brought in ac-
eordance with the new doctrine laid
down by the Court OF Errors and Ap-
yeals in the case of Meeker VS.. city
OF East Orange, in which the court
aorogated the old English rule which
had always governed our courts in
cases of this character.
In his declaration MIR. R%einnardt
shows that on or about anuar Is.
1910, he was always able to receive from
tho two wells upon his property an
ample supply Of water for his use, and
that soon after this date between thirty
and forty wells were driven for the
water supply of East Orange. He
charges that the driving OF the wells
of the city of East Orange has di-
yerted the sub-surface water that he
$1,000 ChJbStu anu Illdl MS
wells have gone dry and he has been
greatly Inconvenience by this scarcity
of water.
In h case of Meeker VS.. East Or
ange, Chancellor Pitney, who wrote The
opinion for the Court of Errors and
Appeals, rejected the old English doc
trine, n for the first time in the
history of this State laid down the
principle OF reasonable user" and held
that the landowner has not an abso-
lutte property In all water that may be
found percolating in the soil, to the
extent that he may do as he please3
with it. He held. in part. that the
landowner was only entitled 10 so
much of the ~percolating waters as he
might use In a reasonable name fnt
his own benefit. such as agriculture, IL
rigation, manufacturing. domestic con
sumption, etc.
This opinion also held thai the ian l.
owner was not entitled TO uud1ly inter
fere with tho rights OF other owners to
the use and enjoyment OF waters perco
lating beneath their lands D oc Ntater
courses fed therefrom.
