TO PAY FOR OLD WORK.

The general public had been of the
opinion that the Southern Pacific Rail
road Company had long been paid for
ITS great work in closing the crevassc
III the Colorado river banks through
which the floods poured while forming
anew the beginning Of n second Salton
sea. IL will be remembered that every
effort TO close that crevassc had been
tried in vain. and President Roosevelt
appealed to Mr.. Hartman to put the
skilled and ample forces Of the South
ern Pacific Railroad Company at the
service of the Government for the
closing of that outflow Mr.. Harri-
man responded promptly, and put the
best engineering skill Of the company
and uustintcd railroad resources al the
command of the engineers and tho oper-
atng forces engaged upon this effort.
II was tremendous work, and the
country breathed froer when its COM
pleflon was announced Immense
damage was threatened by that over.
flow, and the Mexican Government
WAS making complaint, demanding that
ihe waters Of the river should he re-.
turned TO its bed.
The work was emergency work and
was, Of course, more than ordinarily
costly. Mr.. Hartman footed the ex.
pense up at $l,s36.367, but the Gov
ernment engineers say that S552 693 .03
should be deducted from the bill, "bc.
cause this represents the difference be-
TWEEN thc commercial rate on the ma

remembered that the cost of the work
could hardly be computed on the ordi-
