that he had heard rumors that Mr..
Churchill had had "flutter'' in Marconi
shares. Powell declared that he did not
believe the rumors

toned. He replied:

MAKE REQUIREMENTS
IN LAND SEGREGATION
u. S. Land Commissioner Re-
turns List for Additional
information.

The local United States land office
is in receipt of a communication from
the commissioner of the general land
Office in Washington, promulgating de-
partmental decision of March 10, 1913,
returning Utah segregation list No. 10,
under the Carey act, and making GER
tain requirements In respect to same.
In order that the state may have op-
portunjty TO construct the necessary
reclamation work and meet the condi.
tlons imposed by the regulations as q
prerequisite TO patent, the law au.
thorlZes the segregation or withdrawal
for a period of ten years, which time
may be, within the discretion Of the
secretary, extended for an additional
five years.
The list in question was filed in
the Salt Lake land Office by the state
of Utah in March, 1912, and covers ap-
proximately 166,000 acres in Emery
and Grand counties. Some of the area
embraced therein is unsurveyed, and
the commissioner IS letter requires that
the state, upon its amendment of its
ach tract of unsurveyed land by
metes and bounds, connecting the
tracts SO described by Il bearing by
course and distance TO the nearest
corner of the established public land
surveys, or some natural object or
monument supplemented by a state
ment of the probable section, town
ship and range when surveyed. This
list has been rejected as to lands in
township "a south, range 16 east, be-
cause Of the existence Of power site
M 40 rorIaip lands
therein, but it is held by the state that
there is no conflict between the segre
cation list and the said reserve. The
commissioner holds that when the uu~
surveyed lands are described by metes
and bounds the department viii then
no doubt be in position to determine
whether there is in fact a conflict.
1t is also required that the Green
River company, on whose application
the state has made this selection
stipulate in connection with its filings
for the reservoir and the distributory
system from which water is to be
furnished that throughout the irriga
tion season it will permit 1900 second
feet of water to pass its dam, which
quantity of water is admitted to be the
natural flow of the Colorado river dur
ing such period, and to be necessary to
pass said dam at such period in order
that the interstate navigabillty of the
Colorado river may not be impaired,
and to further stipulate that where
water is not being diverted for irriga
tion purposes it will permit to pass its
dam the natural flow of the river. or
so much thereof as may be necessary,
that the Interstate navigability Of the
Colorado river may not be impaired.
When the state is able to meet the
requirements of the commissioner of
the general land Office, tho Carey act
list will then be approved and returns
to the officials in Washington for their
review and approval.

yon were submitted TO the city commits
sion last night by P. j. Moran and the

We're referred to the committee OF the

placing the lessee in a position TO dis
pcnse gravel at fixed prices to all con-
tractors desiring II.
P. Moran offers to establish grade
all along the north bench, TO build the
tractors working for the city gravel at
% cents a yard. Other contractors will
be charged 30 cents. under the bid.
Moran agrees to follow the specifica tions
OF the city engineer In preparing the
grades and streets for the proposed park

the city and city contractors gravel for
30 cents yard and to pay the city a
10 per cent royalty on all net earnings
from the operation of the pits.
in opposition TO either Of these bids
u delegation OF independent gravel haul
ers appeared before the commission and
protested against what they said would
result in q dangerous monopoly OF the
