Mc Donald, tho contractor for the most colossal piece of engineering work over undertaken by man, has "made good." Truo to his promise of sovcral months ago Mr. McDonnld today turn ed the New York subway, comploto In practically all of Its detnils, over to tho operating company. A fow weeks will bo spent In running experiment al trains and on September 1 tho fin est and safest system of rapid transit In the world will be opened to tho teeming millions of Now York. Surmounting all obstacles and prov ing superior to all difficulties Mr. Mc Donald has fulfilled tho terms of his agreement and accomplished what few belloved was within the bounds of human possibility when tho pro visions of the $35,000,000 contract were announced a little more than four years ago. Extending from tho Ilattery at the southern extremity to Manhattan is land to Ualley avenue and 230th street on tho west side In a long sweep of 13 miles of four, three and two tracks, and -IS miles of single track; from 100th street and Broadway un der Central park, to tho east, under the Harlem river to Bronx park and 182d street, a dlstauco of seven miles, or 1" miles of single track. This is the Manhattan division which Mr. McDonald today turned over to the operating company. To Brooklyn another great system Is being pushed rapidly toward completion. Thus, spreading out from tho heart of tho metropolis, like a gigantic apldorwob, arc more than Go miles of single track, covering a distance of 25 miles of space to b.o traveled by trains. World's Largest Single Contract. Mere figures are Inadequate to ox press the extent of this system. Tho largest single contract in the history of civilization was entered Into for the purpose of constructing this won dorful system of transportation, When it is known that 1,700,228 cubic yards of earth and 921,182 cubic yards of stone and rock havo been excavated, 3C8.60G cubic yards of rock tunnelled, 130,088 tons of steel, 15,802 tons of cast Iron and 18,519 cubic yards of brick used in tho work, to say noth ing of the hundreds and hundreds of thohsands of cubic yards of water proofing and concreto and stone and the 300,000 linear feet of ste.ol tracks and the hundreds of thousands of tons of other material ono realizes that a vast undertaking has been accom plished. ' Tho difficulties of the work, too, have been without parallel. Fifteen miles of sewers had to be taken up and rolald -many of them almost as big as tho subway Itself. Thoro were miles and miles of gas mains and water pipes and conduits that twined themselves in and out and crossed and recrossed tho path of the underground railway like a labyrinth. Thoro were several olovated railways and surface railways that had to be undermined, but so bolstered up by artificial construction that the dally transportation and traffic of the great city was not disturbed. Blocks and blocks of busy Broadway in tho upper part of tho city were hollowed out like a fluto. Tunnels wcro fearlessly bored under lower Broadway, roach- , lng nlmost to tho very foundations of tho big skyscrapors and brushing against tho wnll of Trinity church, while above the rumble of the electric 'and the rattlo of tho carts never ceased. In regard to the cost, It Is I sufficient to Btnto that It amounted 1 to a million douars a mile. Lighted Brilliantly Throughout. Persons who have a constitutional dislike to riding In tunnols, based for the most pnrt upon disagreeable ex perience, need havo no misgivings about the subway. Throughout its en tire length it will bo as light as day nt all hours. Electric lamps and arc lights stud tho walls nnd ceilings from h.eglnnlng to ond. Modern methods havo been employ ed by tho now road to an extent which reduces danger of accident to a min imum. The covered third rail sup plies tile power directly, and there is a block system of switches, with ap pliances, every BOO feet. These nr.o so arranged that oven should a mo tormnn drop dead at his post when a danger signal was set against an np proachlng train It would bo Impossi ble for tho latter to run past It for the reason that the same mechanism ISLAND The Leading Tailors Of the city, SIEBERT & Schultx, have removed to 222 Court street, opposite the Hotel Bickers.

UIU The underground waters of Gila Vnlloy, Arizona, havo been jecontly Investigated by Mr. Willis T. Leo of the United States geological survey. Tho object of tho investigation was to ascertain tho amount ot water avail able for irrigating tho lands of tho Indians In this valloy. Tho greater part of tho valley Is Included in tho Pima Indian reservation, on which there nro about 7870 Indians. Thoy aro nn Intelligent, industrious people, nnd until 1890 thoy were prosperous. From timo Immemorial their Irriga tion canals had been supplied with water from tho Gila, but slnco 1890 th.e diversion of tho Gila waters above tho reservation by white settlers has caused a shortago of water. The re sult is that tho area of lands culti vated by tho Indians has decreased from 14,000 to 7000 acres and the Pi mas and Maricopas valloy aro now Impoverished, To find a remedy for this shortage of surfaco waters Mr. Leo has care fully studied tho geographic relations and geologic conditions ot tho Gila valloy. Ho finds ovidonco that thoro Is an amount of underground water in this region sufficient to saturoto tho i valley soil and still give an overflow ot 2000 inches. This wator is probably duo to tho Junction ot throo underflows thoso of Gila, Santa Cruz and Salt rlvors. Thoso arc fed from at least throo sources rainfall in tho valloy, springs from tho hillsides, and various streams that enter tho val(oy from tho hills, the most Important of which is tho Gila itself. Tho quantity of wntors hold in tho gravels at any ono timo within easy rench of pumps Is estimated at from 1,120,000 to 1,960,000 acre-feet. It is calculated that 40,000 acre-feet of wa tor a year will supply all tho presont needs of tho Indlnna on tho reserva tion. If tho computations aro correct thoro Is now accosslblo onough wator to supply tho Indians for at least 28 years. Tho chemical charactor of thoso waters of tho undorfiow is fortunately favorablo to tholr ,ubo In irrigation. Two means of making this wator SENT .... . ... i . i ti.lo Ic Imnortlint.

On tho other hand, Mr. Leo bolloves that sufllclent wator can bo drawn from tho undorfiow ot tho Gila vnlloy by means needs of tho Indians and also mate rlally to extend tho cultivated area without exhausting tho available sup ply. Ho estimates that 10 plants of a capacity similar to that of tho ono now under construction at Sacaton will supply tho required 40,000 acro- Ono of tho most intorostlng chap- tors of Mr. Leo's paper Is that on the economic conditions ot tho Indians. Though peaceful, honest and Industri ous, thoy aro lacking in oxocutlvo ability. Thoy aro, howovor, easily managed and aro prosperous when wisely directed.
