tore noon yesterday. During the

Farmers to Continue Fiaht.

Sioux City, Feb. 1.-THE farmers of
Crystal lake are not going to stop their
fight to prevent the CRYSTAL Lake I'm.
provement association from turning
Missouri river water into the lake, ac-
cording to E. P. Farr, law partner OF
William V. Steuteville, counsel for the
farmers.
The Injunction which was dissolved
by the district court Of Dakota county
was against J. J. Timers and Fred A..
Wood. They showed they were not
responsible in any way for the effort
made short time ago to turn the
river water into the lake. Different
defendants will be- named in the petit
ton for new injunction.
If the injunction method is not effec.
tive, the farmers at the lake declare
the turning Of water from the river to
the lake will be the cue for the filing
by them of claims for heavy damages.

BEING PUSHED.
CONTRACTORS EXPECT TO FIN
ISH FEDERAL COURTROOM AND
LOVER FLOOR NEXT WEEK..

The first floor and the courtroom
will probably be finished next week"
stated Superintendent w. Hopp in
charge of the construction for Bartlett
& Killing at the new postoffice and
United States court. Mr.. Hopp was
unable to say just how soon the en-
tire building would be completed, but
felt pretty confident as to the post ofhc
and the courtroom. The fact that most
all of the materials needed for these
two sections of the new building are
on hand, makes it merely a matter OF
the workmen finishing those particular
places. The floor is yet to be laid in
both places where wood flooring is to
be used. Where the marble is laid in
the corridor and lobby is not COM
pleted but the worl is progressing as
fast as it is possible to lay the floor

the walls. The mill work is fast be-
ing placed in position and has been
completed on the third floor. It is also
finished or practically so on the first
floor or in tho postoffice. On the sec
ond floor both in the courtroom and
various Offices, the mill work is being
placed as fast as the carpenters can do
the work The painters are moving
along rapidly with their work and the
glazing is we'll \on) toward the finish.
The building when completed will pre-.
sent pretty appearance throughout
the entire interior.
What promises to further delay the
work of the building was the friction
between the superintendent and the
marble settlers Thursday afternoon
which called for the aid Of the police.
A disagreement between the con-
tractors representative and some OF
the marble settlers resulted in a
threatened argument by the Queens
bury method and pursued by one OF
the marble men with mallet as Wea-
pom, the superintendent thought best
to enlist the arm of the law and an
officer was called who removed the
obstreperous ones. Some of the mar
Bile is being placed, however, regard

settlers and subsequent quitting OF the

third member of the marble trio Thurs
day afternoon has temporarily afIected
the progress Of the work completing
the new post office.
When seen relative to the matter to-
day, Superintendent Hopp of the con-
tracing firm was reticent, preferrln2
not to discuss it, but stated that it bore
the look Of a scheme on the part of the
marble men to hold uR the job and de-
Law the work Of BARRETT & King in
the efforts Of the firm to complete the
work on time. There is considerable
marble work specified in the new
building, but the delay in the delivery
of the marble from the squarries made
it essential that the work be done with
expedition. One of the men who left
the lob Thursday had been employed
earlier in the work and his services
were dispensed with on account of the
shortage Of material.
. .,..%s Slow on Work.
Mi Hopp said, "as the marble began
to arrive a short time ago, two men
were secured from Chicago to place fe:
They began to work on the job Febru-
airy -, last Monday. Two days later
another man appeared on the JOB: In the
interval between Monday and Thurs
lay afternoon, some 400 square feet OF
marble or some thirty pieces, was set
Thursday one of these men set one
piece and the other none, while the
third man was OF the job with vim.
Tile progress Of the two original work
crs soon brought forth my disapproval
with the result that the were dis
charged a fter the trouble began and i
fight was imminent, one of the original
two marble men ordered the third man
TO leave the job, and the calling of the
police to remove the discharged men
followed.
Called it HoId-Up.
1T would appear that malice
prompted the action of the men as 1T
developed in their progress from day
TO DAY. that as the supply Of marble
ran low, the progress was slower, and
apparently an effort to prolong their
lob was the object regardless of the
contract time for the completion of the
building being set for March l. AS TO
the Statement that the marble men
found the building out of plumb or not
square, is erroneous, inasmuch as the
government after doing it's own check
ing Of the plans. dies not let the mat
ter rest there, but the architect en-
ploys a disinterested engineer, which
in this case was City Englneer }. I.
Brady, for the purpose OF checking up
the plans and work at intervals for ele-
va tion, square and height This has
been done at intervals since the work
began, so it is plain that the work is
first class as is possible to do it from
that STANDPOINT"

son A. App,eyard of the treasury de-
.rartment, was seen relative to the
statements of Mr.. Hopp and corrobor-
ated them as to the work done and its
