MOUNTAIN OF ICE SLIDES INTO THE SEA : Section of Windorfi Glacier, a Half Tlile Long, E | | | | + : :_i: 4 : .:4 at Taku Inlet Dislodged. Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Oct. 8.—Surveyor G. W. Garside brings to Juneau news of start- ling changes in the face of Windom Glacier, at Taku Inlet. This glacier was “dead” and its terminal moraine extended in a great crescent shaped bar into the channel. Big trees grew on a portion of the bar and sub-glacial drainage went on through several small creeks or rivers. At present an enormous section of the south end of the glacier js floating about in huge bergs In Taku or has melted, and a deep channel 300 feet wide has been cut through the bar to tidewater. The sea now reachés glacial ice again, after possibly 200 years or more, judging from the age of the trees. From every indication it would seem that the river which runs under the glacier became dammed or blocked and a great volume of water gradually backed up the mountain side beneath the huge mass of ice until it exerted such a tremendous pressure that it actually forced its way to the sea. When it did so it tore away a section of the glacier about a half-mile in length along the glacial front, 200 to 300 feet wide and 500 feet deep. It forced this ice through a solid moraine, cutting a deep channel, through which the river now runs without hindrance. As galt water now reaches solld ice Windom glacler will once more 80 on producing bergs and become a “live” glacier. Garside says these changes oc- I curred late in September. Fishermen in the nelghborhood at the time were 4 sreatly frightened, and reported that the entire glacier had slipped into the I Bea. e e e e B o B e e L R S R RN e dolmfodofode ool from 1889 to 1884 he was a customer and | | THOUSANS ATIRND SAFTA RSES AR Exhibitors Make a Fine Showing and | Never Was the City of Roses | More Attractively Decorated. —e Spectal Dispatch to The Call. | i T SofTopeTiy at stake Is worth between | 33 and $40,000, and from allegations in the papers in the contest, which bristle | | the property will be an interesting one. | Joseph Madenas. the other legatee, 4nd a | . :t. 8—Mrs. Mary Davis [ contigential empioye of the oidhlady. mag | SFORANE.

The place was illuminated with electric lights. A free vaudeville show was given in connection with a band concert. ————— READY WITH A VETO. San Diego’s Mayor Objects to Water ‘Works Ordinance. SAN DIEGO, Oct. 8.—The City Council by a unanimous vote recently adopted a resolution to offer $00,000 for the two city water pipe plants and the entire water system and water rights of the San Diego Water Company. Mayor Capps announced in an interview to-day that he would veto the ordinance for the reason that it con- tained three propositions which, to be legal, should be in separate ordinances. He also objects to_the clause agreeing to buy all water needed by the city for five years from one company for 4 cents per thousand gallons, because it does not state wken the water is to be delivered nor un- der what pressure it is to be maintained. The Council probably will alter the ordi- nances to meet the Mayor’'s wishes. - — Begerow Trial Continued. } SAN JOSE, Oct. 8.—The Begerow mur- der trial, which has been delayed by the disappearapce of Juror Benjamin, was cailed befdte Judge Lorigan to-day and went over until Thursday.
