FL Centro building was boosted

Barkley, who defeated Sen. Pat
Harrison of Mississippi, had gen.
orally been regarded as the can
didate of the administration and
one of the most enthusiastic sup
,porters of the court bill. The White
House, however. emphasized its
neutrality.
AS a result of the election, sup
porters of the judiciary program
appeared to have won back some
of the ground lost in a series OF
blows during the last few days.
Selection of Barkley left the fu-
ture of the measure and the ques-
tion of speedy adjournment OF
congress, as demanded by oppo-
nents of the court bill, uncertain.
Emphasizes Split
The one vote margin by which
Barkley was selected emphasized
the cloSeneSS of the division of SEN
ate Democrats. The vote of each
of the rs Democratic senator's was
recorded, including that of Sen
John H. Bankhead of Alabama who
voted by proxy from his home in
Jasper, Ala.
The outcome of the leadership
election was disclosed after a 45
minute session which ended in a
burst of handclapping in the caucus
room.
Harrison moved to make the
election unanimous. The motion was
adopted.
Sen. Carl Hayden, D., Ariz., who
left sick bed to vote for Harrison
was escorted from the room by a
secretary.
BY agreement of supporters OF
both Barkley and Harrison the
vote was cast by secret ballot. Har-
rison supporters had desired the
secret vote while Barkley hackers
favored an open roll call.
Leader Congratulated
&. AS Hayden was guided through
the crowd of reporters at the
door and toward the seclusion OF
the office of the late majority
leader, he was urged to disclose
the result of the ballot.
But it was not until few Sec
ondS later, when other senators
began leaving that it was disclosed
that Barkley had won by a one
vote margin.

CHINA SUBMITS
TO AGREEMENT
IN WAR CRISIS

SHANGHAI, July 81. U.P)-The
Chinese national government was
believed today to have approved
probably in advance-a reported
settlement by local officials of the
Peiping crisis with Japan.
Officials were reticent to discuss
the agreement. The fact that Chi
nese troops had started to with
draw, however, and the general
attitude of the national govern
ment, indicated that the govern.
ment was reconciled to an agree
ment.
japanese war planes flew a bare
500 feet above Peiping in warn
ing that China must accept Japan's
demands or face the consequences.
A second fleet, scout planes, flew
southwark along the Peiping- Han
kow railroad and the highways, to
report movements of any Chinese
troops that the national govern
ment might send to aid the EN-
battled 29th army whose clash with
japanese soldiers caused the pres
ent grave situation.
At Tangku, 25 miles down the
river from Tientsin, japanese SOL
diers seized nearly the entire Chi
nese area of Wharfage to accommo-
date four army transports due there
today with the first of $4,000 SOL
diers being sent from the home
land ready for war.
Anti-Japanese feeling began ris-
ing in south China. Coolies at Swa
tow refused to handle cargoes OF
Japanese ships, fearing violence.
The japanese consul at Hong
kong demanded protection for the
coolies and withdrawal of the 155th
Chinese division, alleging it was
stirring up trouble. Canton reject
ed the demands and ordered al
additional division to Swatow.
The British cruiser Capetown,
4200 tons, was ordered from Hong.
kong to Woosung to stand by in
case of trouble there.

CITY'S GROWTH
BOOSTS WATER
PLANTS NEEDS
Desert Coolers Increase
Pump Load, Calling
For Addition

Ell Centre will require an
increase in the water pump
ing capacity by 1889 because
greater industrial develop
ment, lowering of the mini
mum water charge, the use of des-
ert coolers, and greater popula-
ton have almost doubled water
consumption, said City Engineer
Philip w. Knights Wednesday.
Present equipment has a capa-
city of 100000 gallons daily
During short periods of the peak
usage during the day, knights
said, Ell Centro now uses 6,000,OO6.
This does not leave much leeway
in case of disastrous fire, in
knights opinion.
Water consumed during June,
1886 was 72,790,OO0 gallons while
in June, 1887, the city consumed
92,61O,OOO gallons. In May last year
the consumption was 62,320, 900
while a similar month this year
the users required 85,l60,000 gal
Ions. For April 1885 the records
show 55,760,OOO gallons were used
while this year the April total was
77870,000 gallons.
At council meeting Wednesday
Knights proposed to explain the Sit
uation and suggest additions to the
present plant to provide space for
four units with only two to be
built as long as conditions are
somewhat the same. The plant now
contains two 100000 units and
two 100000 gallon units.
Increase in the pumping capa-
city would necessitate additional
filter capacity and the required
fittings and pipe heads to connect
to the present system, according
to Knights. While no estimate OF
probable cost has been obtained,
the cost probably would be in the
neighborhood of $4,000 or $4,000.
