The | Texan will discharge about 1522 tons of | merchandise at this port and hen go to San Francisco. An accident on the steamer last Mon- | day laid up two men, the first assistant engineer, John Barrett, and a fireman, Joe Sanchez, who were painting the upper part of the engine-room when the staging broke. Barrett fell thirty- five feet to the bottom of the engine- room and Sanchez fifteen feet to the first landing. Both were injured se- verely and were cared for on board u: til the steamer reached here, when they were hurried to a hospital. Bagrett | received fractures of the arm and| shoulder-blade and a rib, while San-| chez's injuries consist of deep scalp | wounds.

The water was so swift and so deep that it pulled him off his balance when he put his current meter over. His Indian boat- man grabbed him by the legs and dragged him back into the boat. When he returned to the shore he knew s, but hé did not ere was in the old channel. The gduge shows 22,000 feet a second passing Yuma, and at least 18,000 are going to the gulf. But for a ten-inch rise of the river today the overpour at the break would have been stopped. The |water 1s higher above the dem than below it. Only a small quantity is flowing toward Salton Sink. Rock is being placed in the dam at the rate of more than 200 carloads every twenty- four hours, and the barrier is now | deemed entirely safe.

He insisted that the charge was a reflection upon him and wanted it proved or withdrawn. The| witness wanted to be sure this state- ment got into the records. In April, 1900, Francis wired Bailey at Gainesville to coge to St. Louis. He, gave H. Clay Plerce a let-| ter of introduction to Bailey. His pur- pose in wiring to Bailey was to bring about a meeting. Both men were his friends. He and Pierce were officers of the St. Louis Club in St. Louis, Pierce | beng president and Francis vice pres: | dent, and they belonged to two country clubs also. They were friends socially, but never had business relations.| Plerce had asked for the conference by | telephone. He had told the witness of his Texas troubles and inquired as to a Texas lawyer who could help him. Francis recommended Bailey. “What, that Texas politician?' ex- claimed Pierce. 1 Francis said he gave Balley a strong recommendation to Pierce and then arranged the introduction. He denied that this had anything to do with the Gibbs ranch purchase. Francis sajd Pierce told him later | that he had lent money to Bailey.
