C., the guestion whether the Central Canal and Irrigation. Company shall’ be permitted to divert the waters of the Sacramento River to the amount of 1000 cubic feet a second for an irrigating canal that will run through Glenn and Colusa countles. Such is the substance of a ‘Washington Qispatch that was received last evening. Louis Rosenfeld of the Central Canal and Irrigation Company confirmed the dispateh last evening. He said: The canal will be the greatest for irrigating purposes in the world. The water that we wish to divert will cover 200,000 acres in Glenn and Colusa countles. It will convert great areas Into densely populated regions. The canal will run through the whole of Glenn' County in two branches to many places in Colusa County. One brafich will run through Willows, Norman, { Maxwell and other places, The other branch wiil irrigate alonig the line via Jacinto, Prince- ton and down to Colusa. -Wheat ralsing hes been played out to a large extent in these sec- tions. With frrigation the two counties of | Glenn and Colusa will advance very rapidly. | We expect to hear that the Congressional | committee favors our application. The people of Glenn and Colusa counties are with us. There has been some opposition, but it was based on the mistaken idea that diverting the | water would interfere with navigation. The | Chamber of Commerce has heard both sides of the question. Yesterday one side was heard | and the other was heard today. The outcome | 15 that the Chamber today authorized the send- | ing of a dispatch to Washington favoring a | bill before Congress to permit the use of the water from the Sacramento River. The idea is an old one. Its application will bring in new and improved conditions.

MERCHANTS’ ASSOCIATION WILL DEFEND INMITIATIVE Attorneys Are Instructed to Prepare Briefs to Submit to Supreme (‘nufi in Pfhaler Case. The Merchants’ Association has de- cided to defend the initiative provision in the charter of the city and county of San Franecisco.

Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Owing to our mode and manner of WANT HOSPITAL -~ SITE REMOVED The Supervisors’ joint health and utilities committee yesterday considered the protest of property owners and res- idents against the proposition to locate the new City and County Hospital on the present site of the institution on Potrero avenue. About fifty of the Drotestants were present to advance ar- guments why the hospital should be moved from its present locatian to the Almshouse tract at Eighth avenue and O street. Eugene Sullivan explained the legal phases of the question, saying that on the recommendation of a former Health Board the Board of Superyisors had passed a resolution designating the Almshouse tract as the site for the new hospital. The City Engineer had filed plans for the building on the site se- lected and the people had voted to issue bonds in the sum of $1,000,000 for the erection of the hospital on the Alms- house tract. “You have no authority to change the site originally selected,” said Sullivan. “The voters have approved the.Alms- house tract and the proceedings under the bond issue have been declared valid by the Supreme Court. The only way in which you gan change the site is to call another election for the purpose, and If this board attempts to put the new hospital on the old site the people of the Mission will bring mandamus proceedings to prevent it.” M. Kenny sald the old site did not comprise sufficient land for the new hospital; that more land would have to be purchased and some streets, includ- ing San Bruno avenue, would have to be closed, and this proposed action would be protested. M. J. Hurley said the present site was too small for the proposed hospital building, which is to be 805 feet long. A sewer runs through the present site, which also has many sub-surface springs and a swamp one-third of a mile away s a menace to health. Supervisor Lonergan held that the sanitary conditions on the old site would be improved. Supervisor Kelly opposed the building of the hospital on the old, site, but his motion that the legal objections be referred to the City Attorney received no second. ‘The committee took the matter un- der advisement, but its attitude would seem to indicate that it will not rec- ommend the Almshouse site. it bt e S ‘Water Company Incorporat The Marin Water and Power Com- pany filed artieles of incorporation yes- terday.
