Represcnta tlve Ransdall of Louisiana today Intro duced a bill which makes good a pre diction In these dispatches last fall, that a movement had been launched for the creation of a new executive department Of transportation and public works, which Is part of a plan of members of the national congress of rivers and har bors and the Inland waterways com mission as well us prominent officials of the government here, to take from tho war department authority over engi neering works on rivers and harbors; from the trtasurv department public buildings; from the agricultural depart ment rational forestry, and from the In terior department tho Irrigation of arid land, nnil irlve all these to the pro posed department, as well as the recla mation of 80.00U acres of swamp over flow lands vof the south and middle Kelt Hnn.dnll ! a member of the Inland waterwayo commission and president of the rivers and harbors congress. Boosevelt Bald to Favor It. The war department has been advised for many months of these plans and has quietly been preparing to forefend against legislation which would rob it of Its traditional function to take care of the nation's engineering works on rivers and harbors. So far as that de partment Is concerned there will be In tense opposition, but It Is now well known that Chlof Forester l'lnchot and Chief Newell of the reclamation service are favorable to the proposed radical change. It has been alleged by friends of the proposed new department that President llooseveit is or the opinion that some such plan should be wrought out. His utterances In his message and in speeches on numerous occasions are cited in support of that claim. Army Laughed at lads. That the matter will arouse acrimon ious debate Is indicated by the alleged fact put out last fall by proponents of the movement, that army engineers are antiquated and the citation of the good History of jetty building at tne mouth of the Mississippi 50 years aio by Captain hads, when the army is allesed to have laughed at the Jetty Idea, which Eads pro ceeded to prove to be the best means of deepening channels at river mouths They claim vast sums of money have been wasted by tha war department 1h niiridllng inland river works. pn the other hand, tho army fairly scorns the pretensions of the support ers of tho new movement.

Holland and his son, Walter Holland, are both dead and J. W. Turner Is not expected to live as the result of a deadly fight which occurred In the county courtroom today. All the parties concerned are prominent people. Yesterday an older Holland mort gaged some lands to Kirk Holland. Turner bought the mortgager. Bad feeling grew from this and the ven detta was declared. A tew days ago the Hollands ac cused the Turners of cutting their wire fence. This was denounced. The Turners were arrested and were today acquitted In court. After the proceedings, Walter Hol land told Turner: "You swore to a d lie." Instantly he drew a revolver. Tur ner's sons. Bob and John, rushed to ward Holland with drawn knives and stabbed him to the heart. The elder Holland rushed in and met the same fate. In the fight the elder Holland was beaten over the head and probably will die. Instantly there was a panic In the courtroom and a stampede fol lowed for the doors. The Turner boys escaped. Friends of tho Hollands are scour ing the whole country for the young Turners. More trouble is certain The neighborhood Is in a high pitc of excitement and further bloodshed is unavoidable.
