.1 . TnE ABIZONA REPUBLTCANt SUNDAY MORNING JULY 3, 1903. Yes, That's the Tubular. - - - v.. . E. ZRA 124-126 East Washington Street t 127-133 A FALL1NC STACK Startling and Spectacular Accident 223. at the Electric Light Works. The most spectacular Fourth of July event in Phoenix yesterday was the falling of the huge stack of the Phoe nix Light an1 Fuel company which was being .erected on the new boilers. It was almost in position when the ac cident occurred. In two minutes all would have been over. But there was a sudden and sharp gust of wind from the west. The gin poles snapped half way up with a crash that was heard for blocks and the great mass of iron fell across the boiler, the end of it crashing into the top of the -new- oil teservoir with a report that made more nois than all the bombs that were fired i4i.tjx,rcit y yesterday. Tn stack was bent and " flattened' and broken in two places. Where it was broken the rivets which held the heavy sheets of steel together were sheared oIT smooth. The length of the stack is 308 feet and the inside diatneter flv feet and three inches. While-an accident was always known to be passible, every precaution had been taken against one, and that-, it occurred was due to at least two things. But for either of them the staeli would r.ow be in place. One was the sudden gust of wind. The other was the un expected weakness of the material of' the gin poies. V There were three of them trussed and braced together. Each is fifteen inches in diameter and taper only slightly in their whole length. Rut they were of white cedar and could not withstand ill weight of the wind and the stack. They bent a foot before they broke. The' ends where they were broken, off lock like matchwood. It is almost miraculous that nobody was hurt in the accident. Four men were on top of the boiler at the base of the stack when the. collapse came. The sf.ack ar.d the tops of the poles fell across the boiler, and to those who saw the downfall it did not seem there was any r;xm there for living men. Hut-nobody received a scratch. There was also what may be called iuiolher contributory cause to "the ac cident. That is Mis. Connor, -.who owns lh property imrr ; Jiately west of the company's grounds. Hhe had been all along objecting to the stack on th- ground thit it might fall across her house, and she refus.ed to allow the company to anchor a guy wire on her premises. If that could have been done it is quite certain that the stack would not have fallen, for it was from that side that, the unexpected pressure came. The crash and the roar were succeeded" by a terrific scream by Mrs. Connor, who thought she saw in the accident additional proof that her fears had been well grounded. About a month tso a derrick which had been erected for the raising of the stack fell. The accident of yesterday caused a loss of perhaps not more than Use Ren Bear's Priclily Ho it Cure for , that Itching. IT CURES All heat crupiins and nil it ccsts you i "i0 cents.

THE INDIAN DITCH CASE Interest With Which Operation of the Court's Decision Is Watched. The operation of the decision of the court in the Indian ditch case has been gcing on for the last four days. This was a suit in which the governmen on behalf of the Iodla.-.s living on thc reservation southwest of the city and various other parties had been con tending for several years about th? water. It was settled last spring, the court determining not only the volume ft water to be delivered to ihi-'Viriou: ditches involved in the small system i but also determining the rights of th? , revrral tracts of land to the water in I the older of their appropriation or us? if it The decision provided fur the tp point merit cf a water commissioner, and Francis Murphy, a torm-M- teacher at the Indian school. vts appointed. Professor A. J. McClatehie was also agreed upon as an arbiter in the meas uring." apportionment and distribution cf the water. He has just returned from that neighborhood. He finds that there Is twice as much water in the ditch as there was a year ago. The working of the decision of The court in this case will b? watched with great interest all over the valley, for it has been given out that it is only the forerunner of an order that will be mde by the court in the course of th? fall applying to all the north side lands. It is believed that its operation will be very satisfactory in this case, and if it can be applied to the laiger prob lem embracing all the lands of , th- north side, there will be less water litigation in the future. It differs from the Kibbey decision in that the former followed the water "'' into the canals, while the derision' of Judge Kent fees it actually applied to the lands.

Mr. Folk, the circuit attorney who I starting fo large and impressive a pro cession of boodlcrs toward the peniten tiary in Missouri, has given to the pub lic a list of the prices paid for loglsla tloir at the state capitol during the re cent sessions cf the legislature. They range from $130,000 for St. Louis street railway bill" to Sr00 demanded, but not paid, for an excise bill. Next In size to the price paid for street railway legislation are two payments of $2r,.0(0 and $20,000 for private corporations. One price of $10,000 was demanded for an insurance bill,, but not paid. In general the rates will strike ov.r cxixrts in such tariffs at Albany as extremely low rural, in fact. The us ual price was $5,000, not always paid; n ud -there Is a sugar trust payment cl a beggarly $10,000. But think of $SC0 for a coal oil inspection bill, and $300 for an excise bill! Why. those would be hooted at by the entire lobby at Al bany as starvation rate??. After all that has been said about corruption in Missouri, It must be admitted that the business 1s still an infant industry. New York Commercial Advertiser. ' Electric fans ar putting on airs.'
