SAN FRANClSCO'S WATER
Judges Of Commerce Court to
Retain Once.
The Tribune Bureau.
BY j. X. JONES

Washington, D. Cone OF the
most stubbornly fought pieces of
legislation that has been before
congress is that providing relief
for the San Francisco water supply.
The proposal is that there shall be
dam and reservoir site in the
Hetch Hetchy valley, which is a
part Of the Yosemite National Park,
but to this there is an objection by
those who claim that the project
will interfere with the scenic
beauties Of the spot. 1t appears
that in 1910 the city of San Fran
cisco voted overwhelmingly S4s,.
900, 900, for the construction Of
its water system, and that it has
acquired thirds of the land of
the Hetch Hetchy valley, as well
as portion of the dam site. The
city has also spent SI,75o, 900 in
the purchase of privately owned
rights in the valley and in the
Yosemite tract, and asks congress
for permission to build dam and
have rights Of way through the
public lands. 1t is pointed out
that San Francisco pays higher
rates for water than any city of its
size in the world. 1t is said by
the opponents OF the measure that
the farmers who have water rights
in the irrigated districts will suffer
by reason OF the city control of the
water supply. This charge is EN-.
phatically denied by friends Of the
measure.
Senator O'Gorman of New York,
who was formerly supreme court
judge, joined with Senator Nelson
and others in saving the judges OF
the commerce court from losing
their judicial headgear, by reason
Of the failure OF congress to con-
tinue the court. Senator Owen OF
Oklahoma recalled the fact that
the senate at three times voted to
abolish the commerce court, and
he declared that the reason was
because the decisions OF this body
were not regarded as in the public
interest. Senator Borah OF Idaho
referred to the manner in which
the process Of impeachment could
be abbreviated in the senate by
simply abolishing troublesome
courts. The concensus of senator
ial opinion as shown by the final
vote was that it would be an in
Justice to the members of the court
to deprive them of the life tenure
OF Office, when they had been ap-
pointed with that understanding
only three years ago. This is the
court of which Judge Archibald,
the black sheep Of the judiciary,
was a member, and doubtless the
odium of his trial and impeach-
ment was responsible for much OF
the prejudice concerning the court.
However, the remaining judges
are all able mer, and will eonsc-
quently be retained as United
States circuit judges for the re-
mainder of their lives, subject, OF
course, to good behavior.
The questions of revenue and
tariff have successfully passed the
red light of danger and the ship OF
state is now abreast the green light
Of caution, while the administra.
ton declares that the white light
OF safety is just around the corner.
And there is added to this the
promise Of better conditions for
the people who inhabit the broad
acres of the Golden Republic, in
sofar as the party in power can

UNITED PRESS
MAKES CHANGE
NOTED WRITER AND NEWSPAPER
MAN TAKES PACIFIC COAST
BUREAU.
Charles p. Stewart to San Francisco
While Fred w. Wilson Goes to
New York.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15.-An-
nouncement of an important change
in the Pacific coast division of the
United Press association was made
here today when Charles P. Stewart
succeeded Fred w. Wilson as division
manager. Wilson, who has been In
charge here for about three years,
goes east to take the New York news
desk
Charles P. Stewart, one of Chicago's
best known newspaper men, for a
number of years before joining the
United Press, has had an exceptionally
varied and interesting career with the
association. Following period of
service as foreign editor in the New
York office, Stewart was sent to Lon
don in 1908 to take the general man
agership of the European division and
effect a reorganization of the foreign
bureaus. After three years spent in
this field he returned to New York
just in time to receive the assignment
to cover the Chinese revolution for the
United Press. At the end of the war
Stewart was sent to Toxic to take
charge of the United Press bureau
there, returning to the United States
something over year ago to became
editor of the Chicago Press.
Editing a newspaper was too tame a
vocation for Stewart, however, after
the activities of the press association
service, and he returned to the United
Press a few weeks ago, being assigned
temporarily to the Chicago office.
Stewart, in addition to being one of the
best read and best informed men in
to being an especially clever writer
and news man." has a genius for or
ganization and detail that has espec-
tally qualified him for his various i'm
portant assignments. Fred L. Wilson,
whose efficient management of the Pa
cific coast division has earned him
his recent promotion, is a westerner
who has come to the top very rapidly
during the past few years. He has
had important position in both the
New York and Chicago offices of thu
United Press and was in charge of the
Boston bureau for two years before
coming to the Pacific coast.

STEAM SHOVELS
ARE SILENCED
DISMANTLING OF WORKS AT CE-
LUBRA CUT is NOW IN
PROGRESS.
Water VIII Be Admitted Into the Big
Panama Canal on October
Next.

PANAMA, Sept. 15.-All steam SHOW
ell operations in Culebra cut proper
end today, and between now and Octo-
Der 5, when the water will be admit
ted, all iron and other metal inclund-
ing thirty-six miles of track, must be
out of the nine-mile channel, between
Gamboa Dixie and the Pedro Miguel
locks.
On August 1, there still remained
to be removed 99S, 800 cubic yards in
side the theoretical canal prism, and
the steam shovel operations between
that date and September Is, it is esti-
mated will reduce the amount to $780,
900 yards which will later be removed
by the dredges.
Water will be admitted to the Celu-
bra cut under this arrangement on
October 3, five days in advance of the
date set for the destruction of Gamboa
dixie. The blast on October 10 is eX-
pected to cause a small opening in the
barrier which will gradually increase
in size until a considerable stream
flows into the cut and completes the
work of filling it.
