Chihuahua City, Mexico, Feb. 23-
Instructions to insist on a fair trial for

a rebel prison here, charged with being
a federal spy, were received today by
United States Consul Lechter from Sec,
retary Of State Bryan.
Bryan also called for the presence at
the trial Of others besides rebel Off

ing unofficial reports that William II,
Benton, the Englishman shot at Juarez
was tried by drumhead co1rt.martial
consisting only Of rebel officers, and
that the prisoner was condemned on the
unsupported testimony of two other
rebels.
Letcher telegraphed the state de
partment that Bauch had been in Mexi
co year and that, although he claimed
American citizenship, it was supposed
he had been recently in the federal gov
ernment's service.

HOW ADMINISTRATION
OF ARID LANDS AND
WATER LAWS COSTS
Yearly Increase in Expendi-
tures Until Law Has Be-
come Burdensome.
BIG SAVING IS POSSIBLE
Asserted $15o,OoO Can Be Cut by Con-
solidating of Boards and Abolish
ing Engineers office.

The following statement has been
prepared showing the appropriations for
the arid lands and the water manage
ment of the state since the state in 1901
passed law accepting the provisions
of the Carey act. 1t also shows that
no appropriations had been made until
the office of state engineer was created
in 1905, at which time an appropria-
tion of $4,000 was made, the engin-
eer's salary being fixed at $240O per
annum, $4,000 being appropriated for
the salary and expenses of the office
and $4,000 for photographic maps. In
1907 the appropriation was $4,000 In
1909 the desert land board was created
with salaries of $4,000 each and the en-.
gineer s salary was raised to $4,000. The
total appropriation that year was $44,-
600, and to this were added certain fees
which were spent by the engineers Of
flee. In 1911 this department had
grown somewhat, the appropriation run.
ming up to 100000.
In 1913 this made another stride and
went down into the public purse for
$l93,S00. You see it has taken deep
root and is making a splendid growth.
In connection with this showing is a
proposed plan to abolish the land board
and the office Of state engineer and
turn the business of the arid land and
desert land boards over to one board, at
a saving of nearly $l50,OOO biennially.
The statement follows:
