The old well of tho company had a Tjacitv of hut 25,000 gallons per day, which has been recognised for several ears to ho insufficient to supply the needs of tho city at its present size, av nothing of taking care of tho anld crowth of population. The quos- don of developing more water was ono bf vital importance and one difficult solve. A new well was started early summer on tho bench south of the bid well and sunk to a depth of 150 feet with unsatisfactory results. Tho bid well is but forty-soven feet deep, ad when the new well reached a depth of 150 feet it was considered useless sink deeper and a drift was run to rithin fifteen feet of the old well.

Up to tho time of reaching th channel of tho creek, both wells and drifts had been in a formation of conglouoratc, but af ter passing under tho faho bed of tho creek composed, of clay and sand and out of tho conglomerate, tie current of water was tapped.. After Vjtriking this current tho wator rapidly Vrose In the well, filling tho drifts ano shafts to within thirty foet of tho sui'face.

This sup ply of water will bo ample to tako caro of the needs of a population of from 25,000 to SO.000, and the question of a wator supply for a sowerago system need harrass tho city solons no long er. The company will run a drift from the bottom of tho old well to intersect the now woll at a depth of slxty-ono foot, i norder that water may ba pump ed from both wells. A complete pump ing plant of largo capacity is located on tho old well and a like plant will probably bo built at the now woll in a short time. This is one of the most important de velopments in tho llfo of the city for a long time and ono that will set at easo tho doubt and misgivings of many who had looked upon the water short age as an insurmountable bugaboo.

Tho prince regont is secure from re Ceiving foreign ministers in audience, through having set up tho technical excuso that tho necessary regulations for intercourse between tho p; ir.ee re gent and representatives of foreign governments havo not yet been rfgreed upon. Tho first reception -lay of the minister of foreign affairs since th'!" dismissal of Yuan Shai Kai last week, was yesterday. Tho American, British and .French ministers called, but they did not mention to tho foreign u inister the circumstances which brought about tho dismissal. The Chincso government and lega tions scorn to bo testing each other's temperatures.

It was learned today that Ha Lung and another member of tho grand coun cil visited Yuan Shai Kai yesterdny before he left the city, but what Iran spired was not divulged.

MERRYMAKING ARCA 0 SOUTHERN PACIFIC MERCER CASE ' BEGINS HAWLEY OF IOWA CENTRAL THE FIRST WITNESS TO BE EXAMINED. C0KIPETITI0NBEF0REMERGIN6 HARRIMAN LINES COULD BE OP ERATED INDEPENDENTLY IN OVERLAND BUSINESS. NEW YORK, January 6. Edwin Hawley of this city, president of the Iowa Contral Railway company and Minneapolis & St. Louis Railway com pany, and director of several other roads, including tho Western Pacific, was the first witness called by tho gov ernment today in the hearing of an ac tion to dissolve tho merger of tbtHai riman roads. Mr. Hawley said ho had been -in tho railroad business forty years, becoming connected with the Southern Pacific in 18S3. He was questioned concerning tho transcontinental business of the Union Pacific and tho Southern Pacific at the ttmo of the alleged merger. He said he was general eastern agent for the Southern Pcific at first, and had juris diction over the Morgan lino of steam ers, which was used as part of tho Sunset route. Competition among rival railroad companies before the fdrmation of the merger, he Baid, waa general. He de clared ho had always opposed consoli dation of the commercial agencies of tho Union Pacific railroads. On cross-examination, counsel for the government asked Hawley if it were noj. absolutely necessary for tho Union Pacific to use the Pouthern Pacific lino In transcontinental trade. nawley replied that tho Union Pa cific did it. Ho said it was quite pos rfblo that if the Union Pacific attempt ed to force the issue with the Southern pacific, tho latter road could divert its. traffic at Ogden to tho Denver & Rio Grande. In its southern traffic, he said, tho Union Pacific had always been obHgo-1 to use tho Atchison, Southern Pacific or Texas Pacific. In reply to questions a to whether tho Southern Pacific was not a dominaut factor in, transcontinental traffic an! practically controlled rates, he said the Southern Pacific was an important fac tor nnd that even freight shipped di rectly by way of the Texas Pacific and Tlninn Pn'cific had to bo turned over to tho Southern Pacific at the termin als. Ho denied that specific agreements as to rates had been made prior to the merger, but said there had been discussions as to tho division of rates between the various roads over which it passed. Tho witness safd "freight could be shipped from Now York to San Fran cisco by an all-rail route winch would avoid tho use of tho Morgan lino of steamers from New York to New Or loans. ' Hawley said tho Southern Pacifi", Union Pacific and Oregon Short Lino were included in an agreement or pool that existed for transcontinental rates a few years ago Henry -C. Ely, general agent of fnc Trunk Lino association for thirty years, was the noxt witness. Counsel for the government asked him to bring in a statement of tonnage shipoel from Now York to 'California and west in tho period 'between 1S83 and 11HU, so as to sho whow much, went by rail and how much by steamer. " Mr. Ely said, "Tho Morgan line got mad about switching and quit reporting about 1901. I did nothing about :t. That was up to my superiors." Frank M. White, auditor of division rntcs, and transportation for tho inter state commerce commission, present 'd a statement on commodity rates be tween points east o tuo -Mississippi river and California terminals. This showed that tho rates charged on the various lines were about tho same. in Sheriff Kills Self On Failure to Secure Bondsmen FALIX)N, Nov., January 6.
