THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY FOLLOWS OLD ENGLISH LAW Bupreme Gourt Opinfon in Onse Involving Riparian Righte, DECISION WILL KILL OFF IRRIGATION » Rurling In the Matter Which Lavelves Large Pablic a Private Interests in Dawes Connty, LINCOLN, Nov. 22.—(Speclal.)—The de- clsion of the supreme court in the case of Leroy Hall againet tho Crawford Irrigating company, If adhered to in a future hearing, will probably be a deathblow to irrigation tn Nebraska. In this case the court held acccording to an old English law that the proprietor of a river bank Is entitied to ve the stream flow through his land, un- diminished In quantity and unimpaired in quality. The case In question was begun several yoars ago by Leroy Hall, who owns a farm of forty acres and a small flour mill on the White river in Dawes county. He sought to enjoin a company comprised of & number of citizens of Crawford from ap propriating the water of the river for an irrigating cacal. This canal started near the western boundary line of Sioux county nd flowed twenty-six miles throligh terri- tory which was previously arld and prac- tically worthless as farm land. Before the canal was built land along the course was walued at $1.60 per acre; now it is valued at from $10 to $50 per acre. furnished water for irrigating purposes to Fort Robinson and to the town of Craw- ford. The owner of the mill, which was located about thirty miles below the point where the canal started, claimed that the flow of water was greatly diminished by reason of the appropriation of water by the Crawford company. The trial caurt decided that he should be granted an in junction agalnst tho further appropriation of this water and the supreme court has upheld the decision. Secretaries Want to Secure Salaries, The three secretaries of the State Board of Trausportation will probably flle & mo- tlon in the supreme court for a rehearing of the case of the State of Nebraska against the Burlington railroad, in which the court yesterduy rendered an opinion declaring the * transportation commiseion; unconstitu- tional. The rules of the court allow forty days from the time a declsion is glven for filing a motlon for a re-hearing, and it the secretaries take advantage of this rule they will be entitled to ry until the expiration of their terms. Deputy Attorney General Oldham held a consultation with the three secretaries today and this course of procedure was practically agreed upon. Lawyers concede that there is but little Ikellhood of obtaining a reversal of the Judgment and if the motion for a rehearing is presented to the court in the nato of the state it will be for the sole purpose of en- oblig the secretaries to draw salary for the month of December. The decision of the court in the trans- portation case was not a surprise to per- sons who followed the argument and it is sald that the two state’s attorpeys ex- pected an opinion of the sort that was given. The supremo court decision 1s simi- lar to that given in the federal court In Omaha by Judge Munger several months ago. Totals on State Ofilcers.

STICKS ON SANDY HOOK SPITf After Passage Marked by Ili-Luck Belated Steamer Kaiver W der Grosse Goes Aground. NEW YORK, Nov. 22.—The steamer Keiser Wilhelm der Grosse arrived today, forty-oight hours overdue, and to add to its other misfoftunes, grounded near the southwest spit In the lower bay, passing Sandy Hook. The steamer Cherbourg on November 14, at 11:30 p. m., and arrived at Sandy Hook lightship at 2:50 p. m., today, making the passage in seven days, twenty hours and twenty min- utes, the slowest trip evér made by the steamer. The cause of the delay was primar- ily the weather. From the moment of leaving Cherbourg stormy weather was experienced, On November 15 It had west-southwest winds, changing to west-northwest with rain squalls and high seas. On the 16th the wind increased to hurricane force from the northwest “with a very heavy westerly sen. The steamer labored heavily during the whole day. down to nine knots. At boarded the high-sided craft and caused some damage to its rails and fittings. On the 16th, at 8 p. m., one blade of the port propeller was lost and the engineers were obliged to slow down the engines. This, with the successive gales, reduced the daily average of the steamer over 100 knots. The following days the weather continued stormy. On the 21st & coal trimmer named Knick jumped overboard and was lost. He was & German 27 years old. During hazy weather on the 21st the liner passed #o close to an oll teak steamer, which was deeply Iaden, that the passengers could look upen its decks. Outside the bar Dennis Reardon, the Sandy Hook pllot, boarded the vessel. On rounding the eouthwest spit the steamer being under too much headway to turn the sharp angle of the channel, ran into the mud, later in backing oft it fouled a spar buoy and it is supposed that the chain wound around the propeller as the vessel stopped and was unmable to move. Two wrecking steamers went to its assistance, but the captain and pilot thought the tugs were not able to tow the vessel In. A diver's servico will be used tomorrow morning to ascertain the exact condition before any attempt is made to move it. When 1t was learned that the Kaiser Wil- helm der Grosse had grounded in the lower bay, the deputy health oficer, Dr. E. B. Sanborn, went with the revenus cutter to the steamer and examined the passengers and granted pratique. The Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse has on board 325 saloon, 328 sec- ond cabin and 673 steerage passengers. The passengers did not appear to bo in any way excited tonight, but all were dfsgusted at the sudden stoppage 8o close to home and many chafed at the delay, which re- sulted in their detention on board for another night. The revenue cutter put on board a number of inspectors and some persons who were looking for friends and then roturned to the city.

PROSPERITY IN IRON TRADE Steady Flow of Milla from Contra Orders Coming -te Al Quarters— ng for Ralls, CLEVELAND, Nov. 22.—The Iron Trade Review this week will say: One of surest indications of the wave of prosperity that has been sweeping through the iron trade in the past three wecks is the gen- eral deprecation of anything like a hoom. The stream of orders has been so steady from every quarter recently as to sugsest the danger that last year's excitement might be repeated. Strong as the situa- tion is from every point of view, it does not appear as yet that the misiakes of 1899 will be repeated. The time of year is agalnst such repetition; producing capacity 1s ample for all probable needs, and for- olgn iron markets are receding, so that the outflow of export steel is likely to be checked. The past week has given added evidence of healthy activity in all districts and In all lnes of production.
