FOURTEEN YEARS
FOR TRAIN BANDIT
Man Who Stole Treasure Box From
Southern Pacific Express Car
Betrays Himself.
San Llus Obispo, Cat, Feb. 11. The
trial of Fred A. McGuire, who several
weeks ago threw a Wells, Fargo & Co.
express safe from a Southern Pacific
train and stole its contents", was
brought to a sudden close today. The
prisoner, who heretofore had refused
to give his name, admitted his identity
and guilt and was Immediately sen
tenced to fourteen years' Imprisonment
In the State prison at Folsom.
A few days ago McGuire confided to
J. W. Peardon, a jail trusty, the hiding
place of his booty. The trusty was seen
digging In a secluded spot and when
surprised by officers told them what
he was after. The cache was uncov
rcd and found to contain 574S.5S and
diamonds valued at several hundred
dollars. Peat-don also said tliat Mc
Guire and he had planned to escape by
throwing red pepper in the eyes of
Sheriff Jves. The pepper was found In
one of McGuIre's pockets. When con
fronted with the new evidence against
him McGuire broke down and con
fessed. McGuire, in telling the story of his
life said tonight that he formerly con
ducted a flour mill at Escalante, Utah.

representatives of leading lnsur- -f
anco companies outsldo of Baltl-

Baltimore, Feb. 11. The progress
which has been made today In the
work of clearing the debrla Irom the
strectB in tho burned districts seems
almost magical. Baltimore street,
which at sunrise was a confused mass
of rubbish, is practically cleaned, and
likewise) South street, one of the great
banking thoroughfares. Hanover
street, near where the fire started, was
mado passable for wagons, and Pratt
street, a long avenue of trade, is clear
of Incumbrances all the way through.
The City Engineer's department, the
Building Inspector and the Street
Cleaning department all worked In
conjunction. No attempt was mado to
do more than to clear the streets from
curb to curb, the debris being piled
upon the sidewalks and back of the
building line. Many dangerous walls
which overhang the streets were pulled
down.
All through the financial district
preparations are being made to open
bank and German Fire Insurance com
pany were opened and tho Cash and
books taken out uninjured. The vault
of the Marine bank was opened this
afternoon and found Intact. In no in
stance have the contents of any vault
beeen seriously damaged.
The Chamber of Commerce has been
exceedingly active today In sending
broadcast to every center of trade in
this country and Europe the assurance
that Baltimore is even now In condi
tion to transact all shipping, grain and
foreign trade, and that all other lines
df business will be restored to their
normal channels within the next two or
three months. The officials of the
Chamber of Commerce announced that
plans aro nearly completed for the re
building of their 5600.000 structure.
Dr. Hurd of the Johns Hopkins hos
pital stated today that tho fire will
probably result In closing the free
wards of that Institution. He said that
more than sixty buildings upon the
rentals of which the hospital was de
pendent for the support of these wards
had been destroyed.
Gov. Warfield refused to sign the reso
lution which was passed by the House
of Delegates yestorday censuring Brlg.
Gen. Riggs of the State militia and
summoning him to appear before the
bar of the House to answer a chargo
of exceeding his authority, and tho
House rescinded its action of yesterday,
after hearing a statement by Gen.
Rlggs.
The specific complaint against Gen.
Rlggs was that he had refused to recog
nize passes signed by Gov. Warfield to
the members of the Legislature ad
mitting them within the fire line, but
Gov. Warfield said that Gen. RIggs's re
fusal was to be commended Instead of
condemned.

MILLION ACRES
TO BE WATERED
(Continued from Pago 10.)
tho Uintah mountains and flows north
ward for a considerable distance, then
flanks the northern end of tho Wasatch
range and turns southward, traversing
both Cache and Salt Lako valleys. From
the southern slopes of the Uintah moun
tains flow tho various streams which form
tho Duchcsno river, one of tho principal
tributaries of the Green river. The
Strawberry branch of tho Duchesne flowoi
through the Strawberry valley, situated
Immediately over tho crest of the Wa
satch, east of Utah valley, at an eleva
tion of about 750") feet abovo sea level, ana
having an area of about 7000 acres. The
Strawberry valley and the waters of the
Duchesne aro all embraced within tho
Uintah Indian reservation, and therefore
aro not open to entry or appropriation.
' BRANCH OF THE SNAKE,
The Blaokfoot branch of the Snake
river, In the State of Idaho, hna Its source
in tho high mountaino a short distance to
the northeast of whero tho Bear river
fianks the northern tnd of tho Wasatch,
immediately over the dlvldo which sepa
rates the waters of tho Snako river from
thoso of the Great Basin. Tho waters
of the Blackfoot are In tho State of Idaho
and, except the flood and winter flow,
have been appropriated and aro being
used for Irrigation In that State. At an
elevation of about 6100 feet tho Blackfoot
traverses small valleys which are now
used as cattle ranches by parties who
have acquired title to tho land as well
as the right to use the water for lrrlga
Uon.
WATER THAT GOES TO WASTE.
On nearly all of the local streams of
tho threo previously described valleys
thenj 13 opportunity to store the flood and
wintor water which now goes to wuuto,
and tho general plan here presented con
templates that this shall bo done. Also
that the headwaters of the Duchesne on
the south and of the Blackfoot on tho
north shall bo diverted from their present
courses and be made to flow Into these
valleys for tho purpose of Increasing tho
water supply.
THE ENGINEERING WORK.
In a general way, tho engineering work
required to accomplish this and provide
for the proper distribution of tho water
thi-oughout the soveral valleys will bo as
given at the head of this columns.
PEOPLE MUST HAVE HELP.
To Insure the most complcto success
of the project It seems necessary that
such timely action should bo token as
will secure all tho water sources that
will be needed to consummate the entire
enterprise.
It will be readily seen that. In view of
existing conditions, the people of Utah
are not In a position to take hold of this
project and develop It themselves. Ac
tion on the part of the General Govern,
mcnt la required to effectively oxecuto tho
proposed plan, ono of the sources of sup
ply consisting of water rising on on In
dian reservation, and other sources being
situated either wholly or In part in other
States.
WILLING TO PA' BACK.
That the Government can be amply so
cured In the repayment of whatever
money may. be expended by It in tho
execution of the proposed plan, is ap
parent. Tho majority of the water-users
will be old settlers having other Improved
lands and sufficient means to enable them
to pay tho annual Installments as they
become duo. Tho ability to pay will bo
greater than in the case of new colonists,
and in tho exlstonce of such property and
assets will bo tho assurance that tho ob
ligations will be promptly met.
While most of the lands that would bo
Irrigated under the proposed plan aro held
In prlvato ownership and might bo prop
orly classed as semi-arid, there are very
potential reasons why thoy should receive
the benefit of tho reclamation fund. As
has been shown, the conditions as to lo
cation, climate, altltudo and productive
ness arc most favorable. Part of theso
lard3 are already owned and occupied by
bona-flde settlers. whose magnificent
achievements in the colonization, irriga
tion and redemption of the Great Ameri
can desert provo their entire worthiness
of the trust to bo reposed in them, and
afford ample assurance that tho best pos
slblo uno will bo mado of tho precious
water that may bo confided to their care
WHAT THE PEOELE HAVE.
These people have schools, churches and
other concomitants of civilization that a
new colony could not possibly acqulro In
less than a generation. Without a sub
stantial Incrcaso In tho water supplv tho
Commonwealth cannot grow, and, Indeed,
many of tho prosont Inhabitants of these
valleys aro now seriously contemplating
removal to othbr localities where an
ample supply of water can bo obtained.
Already many families havo left this part
of the Stato because of tho scarcity of
water, and some havo gono boyond tho
confines of the ropubllc. Is It not In strict
harmony with tho benign spirit and pur
poso of the law to havo It so applied as
to presorvo homes and communities al
ready established, as In this case, as well
as to provide new homes and create new
Commonwealths? Whllo this commission
is In hearty sympathy with every effort
to roclalm arid lands and establish now
homes, It cannot avoid the conviction
that preforenco should be glvon to such
propositions as contemplate tho preserva
tion of existing homes and the enlarge-
mont of cnmmnnll Icq nir.inrlv st nVtlluliAst
THE BENEFITS TO FOLLOW.
The benefits that would result from tho
execution of the nlan hero outlined and
offered cannot, or course, bo correctly
meitaurcd; but the commission conlldontlv
predicts that within ten years after its
accomplishment, and within the tlmo In
which the cost of the works Is rcquirod
to be paid, tho population and wealth of
those valleys will both havo Increased
thrcc-fold.
In consideration of tho foregoing and
of the great aid which tho presence and,
experlonco of tho pccplo of these valleys
must contrlbuto to an enterprlso of thl3
kind, It appears plain to the commission
that no moro worthy place or people can
be found than Is hero afforded for tho
successful application and oporatlon of tho
reclamation law, and It Is therefore ear
nestly requested that immediate steps be
taken to that end. Respectfully submit

GREAT SALT LAKE
WILL BE REDEEMED
State Engineer Doremus believes
that the Utah commission's great irri
gation scheme, as a secondary consid
eration, will do much toward restoring
Great Salt lake to Us former level, and
as a further restoring measure he fa
vors cutting off the northwest arm of
the lake by making the Southern Pa
cific Lucln cut-off a permanent dam.
This, he thinks, Is altogether feasible.
It Is the Intention of the railroad com
pany to eventually make the greater
portion of the cut-off a solid roadbed by
filling In Its trestle work with rock,
and It should be possible for the State
