ODT, Oct. 24—Work has been com- menced on the new dam at Wood- bridge, two miles from here, by the Mokelumne Canal and Irri- gation Company. The structure will cost about $35,000. This project is of vital importance to the people of North- ern San Joaquin, and its completion will be a godsend to many dairymen, alfalfa growers and orchardists. At present serapers are throwing up a huge levee across the bottom land to the west bank of the river, where the big stone dam will be put in immediately. Trees and brush are being cut out of the bottoms to make ready for the levee garg | in its advancement. Within a few days a force of 150 or more men will be at work, rushing the structure to completion. The new dam will be built of rock and brush, and the best authorities claim that it will hold forever. At the point of oper- ations the river is narrow, having a clay bluff on the east side, but on the west a great levee must be constructed. It is within a radius of miles. At this place | the riverbed is composed of hard biue clay, well caiculated to remain firm.

Thousands of cords of brush will be required, as al- ternate layvers of rock and brush will be Gumped into place as the dam is con- structed. The new dam will give the water a fall of six feet at the mouth of | the canal, which is enough to carry it | briskly to the end of the system, not far | from Stockton. It is the intention to rush the work through this vear, and the pro- moters clain it can be finished within six weeks The story of the old canal company is | interesting. Byron D. Beckwith attempt- | ed to interest the jarmers in the beauties | of a joint stock company, which would put in a dam, construet the canal and so own its own waterway. The plan failed and the Woodbridge Canal and Irrigation Company was formed. Finally the At- lantic Trust Company was interested in the scheme and purchased enough stock to warrant the construction of the dam at a cost of nearly $15000. That was ten vears ago. Stock, bonds and script were incurred In digging the canal. An assess- ment was levied on the capital stock. In the third vear the canal and its laterals were completed. Then the company de- cided mspm in a rock and cement dam at | Campo Seco, twenty miles up the Mokel- | umne, and bring the water down to this | vicinity in a new canal, thus covering a vast territory with a great irrigation sys- fssued to meet the sécond year's expense | | main some fragments tem. The plan was good, but there was no money to carry it through. Up there in the canyon near Campo Seco there re- representing all that is left of the unfinished structure. The company had no money to pay rail- road freight bills, so it hired teamsters at exorbitant prices to haul provisions and material up to the scene of operat- ions, paying the teamsters and workmen in water script, which changed hands many times ig business transactions, but always at considerable discount. ere are thousands of dollars’ worth of it tied uy by business men and speculators in this vicinity, and it Is not worth the paper it was printed on. ‘Water script to the amount of $20,000 was issued to B. A. Laws and Byron D. Beck- with “for services rendered,” but nobody ever knew what those services were. It was good only for water rights, and they strained and be installed in a sanitarium. From the evidence gained by the Lunacy Commission in its secret session at Stock- ton it developed that Miss Fraser had fallen into habits of extravagance only possible from one of unbalanced mind; that she had in one year contracted bills for underwear alone aggregating $1500; that she had given evidences of a violent temper; that she had persistently d obeyed her father, and had been very vi lent toward him when he asked her as to here she had been on occasions when she left home. There was not presented to the commis- sion the slightest evidence of immorality on the part of the young woman, nor was there anything disclosed showing that she | was addicted to liquor. There had been talk of her use of drugs, but the commis- sion was not able to learn that drugs had brought about her present condition Fraser herself admitted that she had for- y used morphine, but declared that | she had not done so for some years, and proceeded to discount it and trade it for | property. To show how valuable some people considered it, Beckwith, just befora the company went into the hands of a re- ceiver, traded $00 worth of the script for a hulldog. In 1894 the canal went Chapman’s hands, and since then the dam has been torn and washed out until but ljttle remains. The formation of the new company and the carrying out of its plans will permit of the irrigation of more than 20,000 acres of land in the county, and with little effort water could be brought to. twice that area. i "ISHERMEN OF WEST ' SBATILE ENGAGE IN DUEL T0 THE DEATH ‘One Is Riddled With Bullets | by the Comrade of ! a Man He Had | Stabbed. 2 Ce | Special Dispatch to The Call.

VALLEJO, Oct. 24.—Mayor Joel A.

The Mayor claims that the ordinance is unconstitu- tiomal, on the ground that it is repugnant to the conmstitution of the Unit tates and that of the State and the provisions of the charter. Another blow aimed at the police force came in the form of letters dressed to City Auditor Madigan and Treasurer Col- uinlan, a citizen lins, in which Richard J. of anlego, gives these officials notice not to pay the police force its October salaries or any money the city may have in its possession belol\g‘lnfio the force.

Gross, a merchant of Petaluma, has returned from a six months’ stay at Cape Nome and brings a story of his experlence on the seventeen days' sea voyage on the steamer Charlee D. Lane. Gross is in remarkably good health, considering the voyage, but the same cannot be said of the other 760 passengers who filled the steamer's overcrowded cabins, state- rooms and hold. Bad food, and little of it, foul water and close quarters drove many to their beds. The Charles D. s now held at Seattle pending tha outcome of & suit for redress filed by the indignant passengers as soon as the boat reached port. The steamer is old and was repainted and touched up for the Nome service. “The worn-out machinery was retained and the company reported the vessel seaworthy. hen four days out from Nome the passengers were put upon short rations and before they reached Seattle they were provided with two meals a day of canned meats and bread only. Then the two ship’s condensers woula not work and the water served was brackish and unfit for use. To add to this the engines and bollers gave out and the steamer tossed about aimlessly for days. The assengers were not allowed to go into he engine-room, Mr. Gross claims, but at len forced their way in to see the condition of the machinery and an expert engineer among them was eventually able to repair the boller tubes and engine and enabled the steamer to make port. Had it not been for the fine ‘weather experiénced throughout the trip, r. Gross says, the vessel could never have reached Seattle. 3 ‘When the state of affairs was learned ];Y the passengers after they started from ome, they organized a committee. This committee repeatedly —appealed to the n to rtin into Dutch Harbor for re- rs, or at least for provisions, but the captain would not comply for fear, as Mr. Gross _asserts, that the revenue cutter Bear, then In that harbor, would selze the vessel for having some ten more passen- gers than it was entitled to carry, Mr: Gross the g state- ment that a party of drunken seamen of the ship allowed a bargel of men, women and children to go adrift while they were being landed at Nome, and but for the perfect calm of the day there must have been casualties.
