O'DonoGhse's Argument.

Attorney O'Donoghue said. i'm part:
There is not line of testimony Of
fcred here that undertakes to support tho
allegations against Sullivan. or that could
lead this board to make a finding against
this respondent. The fact that he was
sent TO the top of the adjoining building
a halG-hour before the collapse came. re-
licvcs him of any possible remaining re-
SpOnsibility for the five mon.
IF Chief Wagner saw, as he testified
he did. that the building was doomed.
why did &c put ladders up the front of
the building and let the men stay there
for an hour? Why did Chief Proctor put
company two or three feet from the
wall of that bUildinfi. and leave them
there until the collapse camc?'
Mr.. O'DonoShue's chief argument was
that Sullivan should not DE- Judged from
after events" hut from the conditions
existing at the time he left the building.
For six reasons. he said. Chief Wagner
either knew or should have known
about the location OF No. company.
The chief knew. nc asserted. that accord
ing to the rules the first COmpany TO ar
rive must go to the heart of the fire."
his duty was further TO ascertain tine To-
cation OF all companies.
Gives Six Reasons.
when No. Company was MISSING
he said. Wagner should have searched
for il; and could have traced it by the
hose leading into the building: further
more, the attorney added. Wagner should
have taken cogniZance of the fact that
Aemen were going in and out of the
after the collapse, he concluded.
the chief engineer should have investf-
gated if all companies were safe.
THE two chief accusers of Sullivan,
Chief Wagner and Battalion Chief Proc
tor said O'Donoghue, were nice and
while the accused was fight
ing the flames at the risk of his life
Proctor acted as a floor walker in Kann's
store, and Wagner WAS glued to the
middle of the car tracks, his eyes shut"
There could have been no duty where
there was no knowledge" as applied to
Sullivan, was the chief argument OF the
attorney, while Mr.. Syme's argument ap-
piled the same principle to Chief Wagner.
O'Donoghue charged Chief Wagner as
having viewed the fire as a spectator
Then he launched into a bitter arraign-
mcnt of Proctor.

TOM STOUT MAKES SPEECH
FAVORlNG RECLAMATION BILL

Washington, D. c., July 16th-Con
gresham Stout of Montana delivered
one of the leading speeches in the
house today in support of the Reclaim.
alton Extension Act which, as mem
ber Of the House Committee on Irri.
cation he had helped to frame. The
bill which has already passed the
Senate is designed to materially lessen
the burden of the settlers on Federal
reclamation projects of which there
are seven in Montana. For one thing.
the proposed act gives the settlers
twenty years in which to pay the gov
ernment water charges instead of ten
as at present. It also grants other
necessary concessions all of which are
calculated to make 1t much easier for
the reclamation project settlers to
conform to tn Federal requirements.
Congressman Stout spoke at some
length on the bill, advancing substan-
tial arguments In favor OF its passage.
He recited the history Of the Federal
reclamation work and pronounced it
one of the most beneficent enterprises
in which the government has ever en-

ed mighty rivers, fed by the eterna
snow on the distant mountain tops
and this combination of unused sol
and wasting waters appealed to thu
men who were placed in charge of the
! reclamation work as the ideal situa
tion for beginning the task intrusteG
to their hands. AS a further justifi
cation for giving Montana the prefer
ence it was found that that state was
by far the heaviest contributor to the
reclamation fund, accumulated by the
sale of public lands"
Seven great projects with a total
area of 954,924 acres have been start
ed in Montana. Two of these have
been practically completed and sub.
stanatial units of the others made
ready for the settlers. When all of
these projects have been finished they
will afford homes for twenty-five or
thirty thousand people and will pro-
duce annually millions of dollars of
grain, hay, vegetables and live stock"
In concluding his remarks the speak
er said: "This government can en-
gage in no greater enterprise than that
OF encouraging its people to go out
there into the great western country,
tame the soil, conquer the elements
and attain that independence which is
at once the glory of the Republic and
the hope of its future existence.
Every handicap should be removed,
every protection thrown about them
while they are engaged in the supreme
task of building homes and reclaiming
a veritable empire for the benefit of
generations to come. Each and eyery
one of them should be made to feel
that their government is in sympathy
with their efforts, that it is standing
behind them, wishing them success,
understanding their needs and willing
tosextend a helping hand to aid in and
extremity"

projects merely that they be
given fair show to work out the pro-
olems which confront them. Free

gagged. He stated that mistakes were
made in the beginning of the work
and that the settlers had been com
PEELED to bear the brunt of all such
errors of judgment and engineering
miscalculations. He said that it was
practically impossible for any settler
of only average means to fulfill the
onerous conditions imposed upon him
by the present law. With the relief
afforded by the measure under discus.
sion, the speaker said that there would
not be the slightest doubt as to the
success of the thousands who have
located and are trying to build homes
on the various projects.
Referring to the Montana projects,
Congressman Stout said: when the
Reclamation act was passed in 1912,
Montana presented greater opportun-
tiles for successful operation under
the new law than did any other state
in the Union. There were millions
of acres of as fine soil as can be found
in all outdoors and possessing in al
most limitless quantities and correct
proportion, the elements required for
the bountiful production of grain,
grasses and vegetables. Agricultural
science had not yet perfected the mar
7elous system Of dry farming and these
vast, level benche lands were lying
idle and unproductive solely because
the rain did not fall in sufficient abun-
dance to inspire the thousands of hun
cry land seekers with the confidence
required to attempt the work of re-
clamation. Across these plains flow
