NEWELL STATES POSITION Conflicting Claims of Irrigation Com panies Block Progress Storage of Flood-Water the Only Feasible Scheme. ORDGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash ington, Oct. 2. "It Is entirely for the people of Yakima Valley to say whether or not the United States shall expend several millions of dollars In the con struction of storage and distributing works which will double the Irrigated area lying along the Yakima River." This is the statement of Chief Engin eer F. H. Newell, of the United States Reclamation Service, and he advances some good reasons to show why the re sponsibility rests with the people and not with the Government. After personal Inspection of almost the entire Yakima Valley, and after numer ous conferences with the local engineers who have been making surveys and care fully studying the Irrigation situation in Eastern Washington, Mr. Newell has sat isfied himself, as have others who are familiar with the subject, that conditions In Yakima Valley are in such a chaotic state that it is utterly impossible to as certain what any man's rights really are, or what opportunity the- Government would have to enter that valley, where it would In time become seriously In volved with vested private rights. Claim More Than They Can Use. "The situation In Yakima Valley is briefly this," said Mr. Newell. "Some company or corporation has gone in and made a water filing for 100,000 acre-feet. It has built canals that will carry per haps 50,000 feet, but it has never actually used more than 30,000 feet. Some other company has filed on 50,000 feet, has canals which will carry perhaps half that amount, and Is actually using from 10,000 to 15,000 feet. There are in the neigh borhood of 50 such canals in the Yakima Valley'and, if you should add up the total filings which are of record, the flow of the Yakima River would not begin to be large enough to meet the demands. In other words, the water of Yakima River has been appropriated many times over, and yet, with the canals actually carry ing only a small fraction of the amount covered by their water right, there was a shortage of water this Summer. "Nor Is this all. The water laws of the State of Washington leave much to be desired. No man who has secured a water right can tell when some man be low him on the Yakima River, or some other stream, is going to "bring out his riparian rights, which may operar to the detriment of the man who is diverting water for irrigation. There Is the ut most uncertainty, and already dams have been blown up, litigation has been start ed In the courts, and what is already a great tangle of interests promises to be come perfect chaos. Water Users Must Settle Affairs. "The Government cannot go in and build an Irrigation project on a stream whose water is already over-appropriated and where the present water-users are at war among themselves, sor is " the Government going to ufgo these contend ing interests to get together and make way for a Federal project. Through D. C Henney, the water-users of Yakima Valley have been given to understand that the Government will not undertake any Irrigation work along Yakima River while present conditions exist, and It has been suggested that, if these people want the Government to enter that field. It will be (well for them to get together, ad just their conflicting Interests, com promise their overlapping filings and es tablish themselves on a clear, business like basis. They might better devote the time and money which would be con sumed in litigation in the courts to a friendly effort to compromise; they can adjust their own differences just as well as the courts can, and they can do it much cheaper. Companies a Stumbling-Block. "If the canal companies which are now taking water from the Yakima will all come together on a common ground, and if the companies that are utilizing only 30,000 leet, vrtirrc they have flied on 100,000, will be content with only the 30,000, then there will be an opening for the Government to enter. But some of the canal companies, having filed on 100,000 feet, have been unwilling to re linquish any part of their watei right, regardless of the fact that they cannot use it all, and they are holding on in the hope that the time will come when they can extend their canal and use their full amount of water. But those companies today have not the money to extend their canals, and "it will probably be some time before they would have sufficient capital. Meanwhile, all the water of the river is used, and even should these canals bo extended, the wate: right would be value less because there would be no water to satisfy the holder of the right. Then there would be more litigation, more de lay, more expense and more bitter Reel ing. As things are going now, there is one round of trouble, controversy and lawsuits ahead of those who are operat ing canals in the Yakima Valley. Good Basis for Settlement. "If the various canal companies will be content with what they have; if they will continue to operate their present canals and use only the amount of water 'which they have been diverting heretofore, and' will agree to waive their supposed richts to more water, and It they will all reduce this agreement to writing and put it in the form Df an agreement with the Unlved States, then the Government will be in a position to go into the Y'akima country, build storage works and high-line canals and practically double the Irrigable area In the valley. It is not tp be denied that the maximum Irrigable area In Yakima Valley has about been reached, unless the flood waters are to be stored. There was a serious shortage of water this Summer, which has worked some hard ship to the Yakima rarmers. Perhaps with this lesson fresh In their minds they will be ready to pave the way for 'a Government project. But we are not urging them to do so. We have pointed out liow their conflicting interests can be adjusted, and have Intimated that, when this Is done, we will take up the question of extending the irrigable area, but until it Is done we will not build a dam or a canal in Yakima Valley. Two Propositions Considered. "There are two propositions under con sideration," added Mr. Newell, "which have to do with the present canals. In case the Government decides to oulld tho Yakima project. We can either absorb the present canal systems and make them a part of the larger Government project, or they can remain Independent as at present, and receive from the Govern ment canals such water as they may be entitled to under a general readjustment. If such a thing can be brought about. . It would be better to have these canals ab sorbed by the Government, so as toVrlng all irrigation in Y'akima Valley "under one management; but we will not insist upon that being done. That is a question that will probably be decided by the water users when the time comes. If they want to come in under the Government project and have the entire valley embraced In a single irrigation unit, they will prob ably be able to bring that about, but, if the Government does buy these private canals, it will not be at exorbitant prices, but at a figure very close to what tho canals are actually worth. However, that is a question for the distant future, and Is not being seriously considered at this time. "I am gratified to know," said Mr. Newell, "that the farmers of Y'akima Valley have already, in some instances, acted upon our suggestion, and are now quietly at work among themselves trying to adjust conflicting water rights. As time goes on, more farmers will take a hand, and I sincerely hope that an intel ligent solution of this intricate problem may be the result. For the time being, we are leaving all matters bearing on the Yakima project in the hands of Mr. Henney. who is supervising the engineer ing investigations along the Yakima. We are not taking a conspicuous part in the negotiations; that the people must work out for themselves." E TO FRANCIS JOSEPH MAY AGREE TO SUFFRAGE REFOR3I. Coalition Will Elect KossuUi Chief. Liberals Protest Against tho Austrian Interference. BUDAPEST, Oct. 2. The Idea Is current here tonight that the political crisis Is undergoing1 an important de velopment. Minister of the Interior Kristoffy. who originated the plan to defeat the Coalition by the introduc tion of measures for universal suf frage, has gone to Vienna with Pre mier Fejervary and Minister of Jus tice Lanyi for an audience with the King-Emperor tomorrow, and this has given rise' to a report that His Maj esty is ready to abandon his resistance to suffrage- reform. Nothing definite, however, can bo known' until after tho audience. The Coalition party is also making a new movement. Francis Kossuth, who, until now, has only been presi dent of the Independence party, will be elected tomorrow president of the parties forming the united opposition in the Diet and the Coalition will to morrow publish a strong protest against the Vlencse attitude toward Hungary. At a conference of the Liberal party today a resolution was adopted on the motion of Count Stephen Tisza, ex Premier, requesting the government to explain unequivocally the request for the intervention of Count Golu chowski, the Austro-Hungarlan Min ister, and of Baron Frankenburn, the Austrian Premier, in the question of electoral reforms in Hungary, because such intervention violated the inde pendence .of Hungary, and declaring that. If the government should not make a satisfactory statement, a pro test would be addressed to the gov ernment against the discussion of the internal affairs of Hungary -with per sons not having competency to deal with them. The resolution continued: While the Kln-Emperor Is perfectly en titled to express his views to any parsonage he may entrust with the formation of a cabinet, the publication of such expression is distinctly opposed to the constitutional idea. Inasmuch as doubtful criticisms im pair the constitutional Irremovability of the sovereign. In conclusion, tho resolution de clared that any revision of the Aus glelch at - the present time would bo dangerous, as tending to precipitate a crisis. Demands of tho Provinces. FIUME. Hungary. Oct. 2. The oppo sition delegates from Croatia and Dal matia mt here today and resolved to support not only the Hungarian Coali tion, but also to -demand their own rights and especially union of Croatia with the Austrian province of Dal matla. Czechs and Germans Fight. PRAGUE, Austria, Oct. 2. Several conflicts between Czechs and Germans, as a result of race hatred, havetaken place here, but they did not assume the serious proportions of the rioting at Bruenn. AGAINST RATE REGULATION (Continued From Page 1.) who has so far taken no part In the railroad rate controversy. Mr. Allison expeots the rate bill will be the firstj thing considered by the Senate at the coming session. He recognizes the di vergence of opinion on the committee, but says these dlffcrcncesxwlll be com promised, and that a measure will be brought forward which will conform to ihe President's ideas. However, Mr. Al lison admits that the rate bill will be "given all the time necessary." which is understood to mean that it will be de bated throughout practically the entire session, for the sentiment In regard to this legislation is such that early action in the Senate Is impossible. There Is talk from various sources that the Senate committee on Inter state commerce will report the rate bill within ten days of the as sembling of Congress. This Is very much to. be doubted, orr If the bill Is reported, there will be a majority and a minority report, one favoring the El-klns-Foraker idea and the other con forming to the ideas of the President. The Senate committee can never get to getner In ten days or ten weeks; In fact it will be impossible for the com mittee to reach an agreement on this legislation, and it may be deemed best from all standpoints to place the legis lation before the Senate as soon as pos sible, and let the tight take place on the Senate floor rather than in the committee-room. That is the only thing that can get the rate bill out of the Senate committee before Christmas. CENTERS FORCES OX RATE BILL President Urges Views on Senators' and Representatives. WASHINGTON, Oct, 2. (Special.) The President Is giving his official vis itors to understand that he will not urge tariff revision at this session of Congress. To each of his callers, Sen ators and Representatives, he makes it plain that he considers the enact ment of a law giving to the Interstate Commerce Commission power to fir railroad rates when contested, of para mount interest. He believes that thereby he can control trusts, and, by preventing discrimination In rates, in directly reduce the cost of living by encouraging competition. He wants private car lines made amenable to the provisions of the Interstate com merce law. He is greatly encouraged to find, a division of sentiment among members of the Spnato committee on interstate commerce TALKS ON TARIFF Shaw Defends Protection Un der Dingley Law. ADMITS IT IS NOT PERFECT Addresses Virginians In Defense of Republican Policy Says Demo crats Only "Want Free Trado in OtbersProducts. RICHMOND, Va., Oct 2. Secretary of the -Treasury Shaw, in p. speech at a Republican mass meeting In the Acad emy of Music In this city tonight, dis cussed tariff issues, declared that all that the party claims for any tariff law is that its principle Is perfect that It will be amended in due time, but that the principle will never be amended under a Republican administration. Mr. Shaw said in part: You must bear In mind there was never a tariff Jaw enacted that was perfect or that any one claimed was perfect. No two -Congresses would ever enact tie same bill. Every tariff law Is an aggregation of compromise. All the Republican party ever claims for any tariff law Is that the principle U perfect. Tho rate will be too high here and too low there, but protection will be found in Its erery feature. The opposition party never claim s that any tariff measures are perfect. They only claim that the principle of free trade on which they profess to construct their tariff laws la the correct principle. They claim to eliminate every element of protection from all their tariff laws, aa England eliminates protection from her taxation laws. England provides a tariff for the sole purpose of rev enue and the Democratic party professrs to do the same. They have openly and repeat cdly denounced protection aa robbery they strike at tha principle. All Tariffs for Protection. "While the Republican party never claimed for any tariff law that It was perfect and never promises to enact a perfect tariff law. It does claim that all its tariff laws are builded on the principle of protection. It has never focrlficed one Industry for the sake of building up another and never will. .Neither will it prejudice one locality In the Interest of another. It will be National and not pro vincial, it will protect the South as well aa the North, the East aa well as the West and the West as well as the East. Mr. Shaw declared that the Republi can tariff laws are so constructed as to protect every man and every industry. Further on he said: Tho wool schedule of the Dlnrjey law may not be perfect tariff. It may , be too high or too low or the differentials may have been correctly worked out. It Is con structed on the protection principle, however, and under It Virginia farmers sell their wool and their sheep at far better prices than during Mr. Cleveland's last administration, when the duty waa placed so low on both sheep and on wool that this industry was ruined. The Secretary gave some figures on the wool Industry and continued: Protects Wool Industry. Thus the schedule Is arranged to give pro tection to the wool crow era and to every wool operator, skilled ad unskilled. Woolen cloth, for Instance, worth over 70 cents per pound, pay a. ppeclflc duty of 4 cents per pound angM per cent ad valorem. The duty on velvet" carpets Is 30 cents per square yard and 40 per cent ad valorem. I repeat that It Is not an easy task to construct a tariff law and work out these differentials. All the Republican party claims Is that It constructs Us tariff -laws on principle. What would you think of & wool manufacturer who would claim to be a freetrader aa applied to wool and a protectionist as applied to woolen manufac tures? Free Trade In Product of Others. I, made an Informal talk the other day before the Board of Trade of Jacksonville, Fla. Of course I made no reference to the tariff or any other political subject. Follow ing me. an ex-Governor of the state waa called unon. and before he concluded, he ex pressed tho opinion that wonderful prosperity would come to this country If we could onco get rid of the iniquitous tariff, as he called It. When he sat down, I arose and said that, while X did not wish to discuss political ques tions at c nonpartisan meeting, neverthelem If the Board of Trade of Jacksonville would ask It and the people of California would join in the request. I would do my best to get the "iniquitous tariff" removed from citrus fruits. Democrats as well as Republicans cheered to the echo. They then called upon a man. eald to be the leading lawyer of the state, a Dem ocrat, who declared that practically all the men prenent were protectionists. To this there was no voice of dtoenU, lie eald they were protectionists .and sound'moncy men, but that they all voted the Democratic ticket. He then told his associates that after they demanded protection on their citrus fruits they most grant protection to other Industries. All that the Republican party claims for the Dingley law Is that It Is built on the rfeht principles and protects all Interests and alt communities. It will be amended in due time, but the principle will never be amended under a Republican administration. Here and there a rate may be higher than, necessary: here and there a rate may be too lowbut the arin clple is right, and ra wisely have the differen tials been worked out that the United States today is more prosperous than - ever In Its history. LYING ABOUT RACE EQUALITY Bonaparte Exposes Democratic Cam paignsTricks In Maryland. WASHINGTON. Oct. 2. Concerning the action of the Republican convention at Baltimore, of which he was chairman, Secretary Bonaparte has written a letter, publication of which ha has authorized, he says, as a means of disseminating in formation as to the actual situation in Maryland. The letter says, in part: In the campaign now in progress In Mary land, the Democratic "ring" relies for suc cess, as It has relied for succees In many campaigns during the past 35 years, upon appeals " to race prejudice. To lnaame this prejudice It has frequently circulated, and It circulates now, many utterly false and. In deed, ridiculous stories as to what the Re publican party would or might do it entrusted with power by the voters. Some of the preposterous tales are to the effect that a Republican Legislature would compel by law certain forms of social Inter course between the two races, as for example by establishing -compulsory attendance at mixed schools or obliging white children to be taught by colored teachers. Others hold out the alarming prospect that a Republican Governor or Mayor would appoint a vast mul titude of colored officers, with no regard to fitness or expediency, to all sorts of public positions. Of course, when we have had a Republican Legislature and Republican Gov ernor, nothing of the kind was done, and the present Republican Mayor of Baltimore haa made no such eelectlons for public office. Stories "of the first clats form part of on outcry against fecial equality; stories of the second class give such color as they may to an outcr against negro domination: the reso lution of the Republican convention disclaim ing any desire or purpose to promote either of these chimerical evils must be understood in the light of the surrounding circumstances aa above set forth. In Maryland it has been so understood and has attracted little or no comment; outside of the state It seems to have been widely mleunderztood by reason of widespread Ignorance of the peculiar conditions which nrevall with us. Republican Wins in Connecticut. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 2. The towa elections In Connecticut today were com plicated by the entire state voting on the question of adoption of the two constltu-, tlonal amendments and of the electors In the Third Congressional district choosing a successor to Frank B. Brandegee, who in May was elected United States Senator. Edwin W. Hl&glns, of Norwich, Republi can, was elected to Congress, over Charles F. Thayer, Mayor of the same city. Democrat, the majority, with a few towns missing, being about 1S00. Thayer carried his own city, which is strongly Republican. Two years ago Brandegee carried the dlslrlct by over 4000 votes, while last Fall his majority was nearly 2Q! larger. The constitutional amendment permit ting the use of voting'" machines at state and National elections was adopted, prob ably bj- a ratio of 3 to 1. CREES GO BACK TO CANADA Children and Horses Dying as Result vof Drouth in Montana. ST. PAUL, Oct 2. A special to the Pioneer Press from Butte, Mont., says: "After 20 years of opposition to tho British government. Chief Little Bear and his band of 300 renegade Crecs, ap palled at the number of their children nnd horses dying and their Inability to securo food as the result of the drouth prevailing In Northern Montana, have surrendered. Chief Little Bear and his band fled to Montana nt the close of the Rcll rebellion. Neither arms nor diplomacy could conquer them, but they succumbed to drought and before the. errd of this month practically all of the tribe In Montana will be on the way to Onion Lake, Canada, their native land there to remain under orders of tae Commissioner of Indian Affairs at Ot tawa. 'Many of the tribe are on the way to Havre, where the tribe will assemble prior to beginning the march to Canada. The Crecs were deported to Canada sev eral year ago by United States troops, but Canada could not hold them and In a few weeks they returned to Mon tana and have since been homeless wan derers."

The robbers did not detach the bag gage car from the rest of the train, forc ing the safe with a crowded "train behind them. When they had stolen the con tents they disappeared in an easterly direction. The train was delayed three hours In reaching Edmonds, where the operator was awakened and partial reports sent to Everett and Seattle. An hour later the train reached Everett. In the meantime the engineer In a hydraulic plant near Mile Post 12, learned of the robbery and sent word to Seattle.
