Lock II Development

The dam and power house at Lock II is on
the Coosa river, about midway between Bir-
mngham and Montgomery. The river here is
about 1900 feet wide, and the development in
wolves the building Of "A massive concrete dam
from shore to the other, and a100000 horse
power station on the west bank Of the river "A
better idea of the magnitude of this develop
ment may be had from the following: The
length of the lake created by this dam will be
20 miles, and will contain 7000,000000 cubic
feet Of water. In the building of this dam and
power house there will be required 100000 bar
res of cement, II 900 cubic yards of sand
$4,000 cubic yards of stone, 100000 brick,
100000 pounds OF structural steel and 100000
pounds of miscellaneous stee land iron.
The power house will contain six electrical
generators capable of producing 100000 horse
power. The generation of power at this plant
is equivalent to saving of $4,000 tons Of coal
per year

Washington, Oct. l1.-Many Off
cials regard the developments as
bearing out the predictions that no
election will be held before Oct. 20.
At while house 1t is stated that the
President is studying the situation
very carefully.
John Bassett Moore, acting secre-
tary of state. laid before the presi-
dent diplomatic dispatches confirm
ing the news reports of the Mexico
City situation. Outside of admins
tration circles it is believed that HUI
erta's action toward congress can be
regarded as evidence of his inability
to control the situation.
There seemed to be little likelihood
of the United States recognizing any
choice at the election if held under
such circumstances. The success of
the constitutionalists in the north
has encouraged the belief that fair
election could not be held in Mexico
Should no election be held on October
&c it is believed the government will
withdraw its recognition extended to

BLAKELEY THRILLS
5000 AT DELTA
WITH FLIGHTS

"Daredevil' Blakeley. the man
who wrecked his machine and risked
his own life in an attempt to fly
here with missing" motor. thrilled
5000 spectators at Delta yesterday
afternoon with hair-raising areal
stunts and put to shame all previous
performances the people OF that town
had ever witnessed.
Blakeley was perfectly Mt home in
his little biplane and the sharp spir-
ais and gyrations he executed were
breath-taking. After '.proving" the
air in his first 15-minute flight,
Blake" descended easily and then
went up to do stunts. And stunts he
did. Gracefully ascending until he
was fully 200 feet above the ground
he began a long series of dangerous
glides and dips that seemed to miss
the danger point by a hair breadth.
He came down smoothly and when
seen after the flight declared that
he could have stayed up much longer
so far as the conditions OF the air was
concerned.
The big crowd was fully satisfied
in every way and Blakeley made
good.
He will be in Grand Junction next
week. and prepare for his flights here
on Thursday, October 80, as a fea-
ture of Odd Fellows week.

Fishguard, England, Oct. 1l-Fire
in a raging storm in mid-Atlantic
destroyed the liner Volturno, bound
from Rotterdam to New York, with
loss of either 1876 or 236 passen-
gers and crew.
Ten other liners, which were call
ed by the wireless, were standing by
impotent to avert the tragedy, owing
to mountainous seas.
BY means of the wireless 521 per-
sons on board the Volturno were saw
ed. The Volturno was owned by the
Canadian Northern Steamship com
pany but had been chartered by the
Uranium line.
The officials of the latter company
this morning declared that the Vol
turno carried "a cabin and $40
steerage passengers and a crew of
SO men. A wireless dispatch from
the Carmania said that 521 had been
saved and 236 lost. This makes a
total of 757 or 101 more than were
aboard the Volturno.
A close check of the list indicates
an error had been made in the wire
less transmission and that 1876 lost
is the correct number.
The Volturno was commanded by
Captain Inch who had been in the
service OF the Uranium line for five
years The vessel was built IN 1906;
it was $40 feet long with 43 foot
