LEASE FILED FOR
DULLING WELLS
A lease was filed in the County Clerk’s
office yesterday whereby Henry Morde-
cai of New York acquires the Dullnig
mineral wells of San Antonio for a term
of fifty years' The lessor is (Jeorge
Dullnig and the lease carries 100 acre-
and also an option for the purchase of
the entire property comprising 513 acres
within two years for $lOOOOO.
The terms of the lease are $25 per
month rental for the building one cent
par gallon royalty on all waler sold
from the wells and cents per bath for
all water used for bathing purposes. The
lease stipulates that if the option is
not taken up an annual rental of $lOOO
shall be paid in addition to other rents
and royalties. In addition the lease pro-
vides that if oils gases or atty minerals
can be worked in paying quantities the'
lessor is to receive one eighth of the
gross output.
Mr. Mordecai says that these waters
arc the best mineral waters for medical
purposes in Texas but that their virtues
have never been suffieintly exploited.
When the general public has been in-
formed of what the Dullnig waters are
they will be fully as popular as the best
waters in the world. The water will
be bottled and put on the market as
won ns proper arrangements can lie
made. In order to do this a Imttling
plant will have to l>e put in ami it will
lie necessary to put in a pia- line from
the wells to the city where the plant
will be eredted. There are other im-
provements in contemplation in connec-
tion with this lease that will tie made
publie later on. The hot sulphur wa-
ter cn the leas*- ha- great value and it
will probably be piped to the city later
on.

TEXAS NATURAL WATER SUPPLY;
OTHER NATIONAL CAPITAL NEWS.
Special to The Daily Light.
Washington I). ('. duly 2.—Since 181 H
th* United States Geologies* Survey
through its division of hydrography has
ben making a study of the mure illy
portant stream of Texas. Dioe stu-
dies conaist of daily records of water
heights and frequent measurements by
current meter of thu velocity and vol-
ume of waler carried by the stream*.
Measurements have been made of Pecos
river above Ilie Texas and Pacific Rail-
road the Brazos at Waco and the Col-
orado at Austin. Many measurements
have also been made <rf detached
streams of constant flow via. the Has;
Fefi|wi.os Moras and ban Antonio rivers
Comal. Barton. Jaunpaxis Comanche
and Toya creeks and others. The
measurements of Colorado and Brazos
rivers have proved somewhat disappoint-
ing. in that the flow of both stremis
was much below the popular estimate.
Th-* minimum flow of the Colorado h;s
been found to lx- about one-fifth of
what it was supposed to lie when the
bonds for the dam at Austin and its
allied enterprises were voted. The flow
of the Brazos at Waco reached the low-
est in ita recordid history that of 50
cubic feet per second and it was found
that n dam at Waco with ui effective
head < i" 30 foot would develop only about
130 hore-power during the periods of
low water. The hydrographic work in
Texas is a part of the general study of
the country’s water resources conduct-
id by the I'nitcd States Geological Sur-
vey through which it Is aimed to se
core an understanding of the. stream'
and underground waters of the United
States with a view to their ccrtionuc
U«'.
Prof. Thomas U. Taylor of Austin.
Texas who has charge- cf the hydro-
graphi- work of the United States Geo-
logical Survey in that state report*
facts of considerable scientific interest
and also of much economic importance
which have been discovered in connec-
tion with the study of the Texas
streams.
One of the most striking <i* these fo
the peculiar sympathy which exists be-
tween the volume cf flow of certa'n riv-
ers rising on the eastern edge of the
Edwards Pla I can region and the rain-
fall upon the extended surface of the
plateau. The discharge of San An-
tonio riicr for example as of other
stream* in central Texas which have
similar sources seems to form a perfect
indicator cf past weather conditions
of the higher [Jain. as far as the raiu-
iad is concerned. Their Hush period*
follow clorely [x-riods of heavy precipi-
tation and thifr minimum flow comes
only after dry years upon the plains.
The lalwanli Plateau is the south
ern extension of the Great Plains re-
gion of the central west it id extends
ovi r many hundreds of square miles in
central ar.d western Texas. The great-
er part of the rainfall of the region
sink* into the soil and works its way
gradually eastward and southward ap-
pearing in gushing sprug* at the foot of
the escarpment whi h there forms the
boundary of the plateau.
Experiments at San Antonio have
conclusively shown that Ilie river and
the artesian wells of the district have
a mum source for when all of the
artesian wells wore peidiittea to flow
i‘or twenty-four hours the level ot the
head lake of the river was seen to sink
several inches but when the well*
were shut off the waters of the lake
returned to their former level in about
th? same time. When graphieallv
plotted the curve of maximum rainfall
and the curve of maximum flow in
these large springs arc similar the
crest* of the latter following those of
the former.
The earnest effort of. Senator

reciprocity agitation saying that the
refusal of congress to sa-nfie? the beet

the am-ees.* of the Republican party in

er.il Mr. Wood* said thnt many Icadei’
(tepubliiaiM had been sadly misled on
the subject: 'that the reciprocity advo-
cated by Blaine contemplated only the
extension of the trade of the United

There has just been received new*
from Ncmc (Alaska) which reveals an-
oth«r chapter in the story of corruption
that has already made a travesty of
justice in that judicial district and
adds another link to the chain of evi
denca of an organized conspiracy to de-
bauch the United States courts. The
*ad story of Judge Noyes it still fresh
in the minds of the public the i.rwar-
ranted conviction by the United Staten
Court of A|penl» of the Ninth District
an.l the subsequent pardoning by the
President of Young t'lniuh A. S. Frost
are matters but yesterday. T'ne
strenuous efforts made by certain tn-
tenwted parties Io tMire thr- permamiii
ap|x>intmerit of Judge Wickersham to
the Nome Foderel bench have hardly
ceasrd and now comes the news that
United States Marshall Richards who
rloubtlcM refused as did young Front
to lx- a party to the malevolent schemes
of the Pacific roast conspirators has
■ been arrested on the charge <f contempt
of court convicted of ’’packing a jury”
on the evid>>> c of detective* said to
। be in league with the ring and is now
awaiting tie sr.htem-e of the court. It
is hardly necessary to add that Wioker-
shim js the judge who convicted Richa-
rds nor to emphasize the fact that by
bringing the charge of “contempt of
court” the judge found a means of con-
victirei without giving the marshall the
benefit of trial by jury. Fortunatch'
however the men who have nought to
pervert justice to their own ends have
overreached themselves and the Presi-
dent has grasped the situation anjl

Members of the Texas delegation
are anxious to return to their homos
as early as possible and it will not he
long before most of them take their
departure from the National capital
Those members whose wives and
families accompany them to Washing-
ton have been busy for some days
past making- their preparations to
leave either for the State or for some
of the cooler resorts where they usu-
ally spend the summer before return-
ing to Texas.
Senator Bailey it Is announced will
leave Washington City about Wednes-
day or Thursday for New York city
where he is to be the prinicpal speak-
er at the Fourth of July celebration
at Tammany Hall. He will remain in
New York city for a few days proba-
bly returning to Washington city be-
fore leaivng for Texas.
The plans of most of the members
of the delegation are not as yet fully
matured but they say they will leave
Washington as soon as they can get
away. Some of the members have
departmental matters In such a state
as will prevent their leaving Wash-
ington city immediately but they will
get these matters in shape as soon as
possible to enable them to leave the
capital. The adjournment has come
somewhat earlier than was anticipa-
ted by most of the delegation a few
weeks ago hut the early adjournment
is much to the liking of most of them
who have contests on their hands.
Memtiers of the Texas delegation
will be in Washington frequently dur-
ing the recess of Congress for the
purpose of looking after matters be-
fore the departments. There is al-
ways much to be done by a Congress
man. and they are often in the city
during the recess.
Among Texas gentlemen in Wash-
ington Sunday was Dr. R. E. L. Mil-
let’ of Fort Worth who accompanied
by his wife stoped over in the city
betn en route to some of the Eastern
resorts to spend a portion of the hot
season.
Mr. Seaton of Beaumont who is in
the city for a few days stated Satur-
day afternoon that it is the general
desire of the Beaumont people that
the President shalU come to their
town and see the great oil region of
Texas during his contemplated tour
of the Southwest next spring. If the
President fails to go to Beaumont and
of course to Houston he will miss a
great deal and will be likely In the fu-
ture to regret it.
