The tower reser- voir of the Madera Canal and Irrigation Company, known as the Archibald reser- voir, three miles east of town, broke this morning at 7 o'clock, and the pent up waters rushed with a mighty rear down the dry bed of the ¥resno River like a tidal wave, carrying bulkheads, head- gates and bridges before it. A foot bridge was washed away and portions of it lodged against the Southern Pacific bridge, knocking out six piles and threat- ening to carry the bridge away. For- tunately the water began to recede in an hour and the bridge was left standing, though in an unsafe condition, and trains were held, as it was dangerous to cross. The mail was transferred, and in that way Madera and points to the south re- ceived the mall. The 200 feet of Lue res- ervoir levee was washed out, allowing water enough to irrigate 25,000 acres of land to escape. The upper reservoir is | still intact and is about half full of water. The damage to the reservoir is estimated at about 33000, but other damages will make the loss much greater, SPIRIT OF PROGRESS ALIVE IN BAKERSFIELD |Citizens Discuss Plan to Bond City to Furnish Improvements.

At 5 o'clock this aft- ernoon the mercury dropped here and for a couple of hours the coldest weather of the season was experienced. Tonight is cold and fears are entertained that a frost will damage the fruit crop, now in a splendld state. BAKERSFIELD, Feb, 27.—Rain began falling here at 6 o'clock tonight and in- dications are that it will continue throughout the night. The downfall is light and warm and of a character that will prove most beneficial to crops. Re- ports from the farming districts are that wild feed is growing with almost un- paralleled rapidity and early grain is al- ready well up. STOCKTON, Feb. 27.—What was rather expected to be a dry season has turned out to be quite the opposite. Rain has been falling in this vicinity all morning with no signs of clearing off this after— ! noon. The farmers are crying enough, as the sofl is well soaked and there is at this time no further necessity for mois- ture.

MINE OWNERS MIST YiFLD Epecial Dispatch to The Call. PITTSBURG, Feb. 27.—"No coal strike” was the positive command issued by the steel trust to President Francis L. Rob- bins of the Pittsburg Coal Company while the latter was in New York negotiating with President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America. Rob- bins came to Pittsburg today to carry out the instructions he had received from W. Ellis Corey, president of the United States Steel Corporation, in substantially the fol- lowing language: “The United States Steel Corporation will not stand for any strike at present in | the bituminous coal regions—at least in that portion from which we draw our coal. We have a twenty-five-year ‘con- tract with the Pittsburg Coal Company, which must be taken care of or given up. “Give those miners their advanee and | keep them working, or the United States Steel Corporation will itself grant an ad- | We have one year's solid work ahead, and cannot afford to have our mills shut down, even for one day, for lack of coal.” George Gould, as'head of the immense coal carrying and coal producing railway interest in the West and Southwest, has declared himself to the same purposs to the leading bituminous operators in his territory. 1 It is positively announced here tonight! that there will be no strike—that, what- ever advarnce the miners insist upon, peace must be assured. ‘This places the bituminous operators in the attitude of supplicants when they meet the miners in joint convention at Indianapolis on March 1& Of those who participated there were: Mr. ard Mrs. D nd Mrs. Walter | | Hobari, Mr. and i K t.
