MILK RIVER YALLEY, MONTANA Two Million Dollars May Be Ex pel d- in Reclaiming- Half a Million Ami of Arid Lands In this State Propose to Build a Canal Beginning at St. Mary's River. Washing-ton, Nov. 14.

The important subjects to be discusised by the irrigation convention at Chicago next week and to be urged! upon congress this session for appropriation are projects for the irrigation of arid lands of the Milk river valley in Montana and for furnishing a big reservoir plant at Pima and Maricopa connections in the Gila river region in Arizona. The first project is calculated to cost about $2,000,000 altogether. Already the summits of the Rockies adjacent to the Canadian border have been surv ved to ascertain the area tributary to this point of divers-ion of water. It is Ptated that probably half a million acres of the arid lands in the Milk river valley" will be reached if the project is executed. It is proposed to build a canal beginning from St.

Mary's river, carrying1 the water into the north, and subsequently the south forks' of Milk river and out on the plains to the east. Amongt other things' it is claimed the building up of an agricultural country there will furnish feed to winter cattle that now frequently die by the thousands in the cold season. The national irrigation congress-will likely ask an apporpriation of about $250,000 to begin the work. In the Arizona project it is proposed to build about fifty miles up the rier by the present reservation, a reservoir costing in the neighborhood of $1,500,000. which will supply not only these un-prosperoufi but now distressed Indians, but as well a large area of public lands calculated to pay the cost of the entire project.

F. I'uham of the Drew Theological seminary. The committee appropriated $1,200,000 for the foreign and home missions. Much time was taken up by the JaisV ops after the resumption of business in the afternoon in the discussion over the matter of defraying the expenses of bishops sent as superintendents to foreign missionary fields. A resolution was finally passed that such expenses hould be paid by the society.

Ten- thousand dollars was then appropriated for office expenses- of the society and another debate followed', over the division of the whole amount of money for mission work for the year. It gave rise to a debate at times, but it was finally decided that 43 per cent should go to the home mission work and 57 per cen to the work in the foreign missions. The amount given for the work in India is $2,844 more than last year. A special committee of five, with Bishop Thoburn as chairman was then appointed to devise means and ways to raipa $2,000,000 for missionary work, the sum to be known as the Twentieth Century offering.

MEN WORK TWENTY HOURS A DRY Four-Fifths of the Garment Work in York City is Done in Sweat Shops Typhus ami Tuberculosis in Rooms Occupied by WorkmenRedemption of the Slams.

Washington, Nov. 14. Thomas M. Rixey, labor commissioner of Missouri, appeared before the industrial committee today. He gave a detailed account of the St.

Louis street car strike of last summer and said the reason he had not invoked the state arbitration law for the settlement of the strike was that the law was inadequate. He advocated compulsory arbitration. James B. Reynolds, head worker of the University of New York, testified as to the redemption of the slums of New Tork city, to which purpose the society is devoted. The society's building in Eldridge street, Mr.

Reynolds said, is now largely surrounded by Russian and Polish Jews and by Roumanians, but he thought these were gradually being crowded out by Italians, as the Germans were earlier fey the Jews and the Irish by the Germans. He said that the children of the quarter manifest a disposition to become ashamed of their parents and not all cf them were disposed to adopt the tiades of their fathers. Mr. Reynolds also contributed considerable information concerning the sweat shoos of the east side. He said that garment making is pursued largely in that section in private apartments and that it had degenerated in recent years.

He attributed several recent failures of large establishments to the rweat shop competition. He had investigated an instance of 123 workmen, four of whom were working regularly twenty hours per day, six of them eighteen hours and others less time, ranging down to ten hours per day. In cases of long continued daily service the wages were not increased com- menpurately with the time put in by the wcrkers. In many cases the work rooms are used as sleeping apartments and a laree percentage of the quarters are insanitary. He said the force of insnectors under state law was inadequate and that there had been complaint against the too strict enforcement of the law because of the danger of the compelled rivalry of workers in other states.

He said there was much typhus and tuberculosis in the sweat shops. Garments were often thrown upon the dirty floors and when Governor Roosevelt, who investigated the question, visited the cuarters, hj found aoods stored in a back room oceuoied by a man in the last stages of tuberculosis. The witness expressed the opinion that four-fifths of the garment -irk in Nv York is done in the s'nors. An establishment on Fifth avenue was as apt to employ these agencies as places elsewhere and the style of a was no guarantee against the place of manufacture.
