KELLOGG GETS IT CONTRACT SIGNED BY BOARD, SHERWOOD VOTES NO Kellogg Makes Extended Report on Development of Water and Other Matters Up the River Regular meeting of Board of Directors of A. U. W. Co., August 6, with following members present: Directors Crowther, Kraemer, Sherwood, McDermont and Zeyn. The minutes of the preceding meeting were read and approved. Director Zeyn reported that F. Baum desires that the box be removed from adjoining his property on Cypress street. The matter was referred to Director Zeyn with power to act. The report of the Finance committee was received and ordered filed. It showed demands on the treasury to the amount of $1,675, with available cash $9,794.70. It also referred to the Board the matter of the purchase of riparian lands up the river. On motion, warrants were ordered drawn in payment of all demands except the sum of $450 for riparian lands. The reports of the secretary, treasurer and superintendent were each received and filed. A communication from A. J. Fiske, Jr., a representative of the United States geological survey, division of hydrology, asked for a write-up of our water system, the same to furnish material for a bulletin to be issued by the government. On motion of A. McDermont, Mr. Sherwood was appointed a committee of one to supply the necessary information to Mr. Fiske. A communication from F. Rimpau asked privilege of connecting a pipe line with either the Cypress street pipe line or the Sycamore street ditch. Referred to Zeyn with power. Director Bradford arrived and took his place on the Board. The following report of Engineer H. C. Kellogg was presented together with tables of depths: Santa Ana, July 21, 1904. To the Honorable Board of Directors during four months of the year can be depended upon to fill the volts in the sand and gravel, the additional supply of between 500 and 800 inches may be considered constant as long as the canal is caused to carry all the water of the river above its intake during the period of minimum flow of six or eight months. Therefore this method seems to be a practical one for increasing the water supply, and I would recommend that your companies lend their influence to the construction of a similar plant in the adjoining six miles of river, below the said Riverside power plant, where the conditions are favorable for the construction of such a plant. The terminus of this proposed plant would be just above the junction of the Temescal creek with the river, from which point to Rincon the valley widens into a broad basin susceptible of holding a large volume of the percolating waters from the main stream and the side valleys. This basin would serve admirably as a collecting area to reinforce and uniformly distribute our summer water supply. Its overflow is at the upper end of the Santa Ana canyon, where the river has trenched itself through the Coast Range. From this point down to the point of division of the water, a distance of about three miles, the river bottom varies in width from 1,000 feet at the upper end to about 4,000 feet just above Scully Point, narrowing again at said point to about 500 feet. This offers another opportunity to inaugurate a similar system for developing water by diverting the surface flow, with the additional advantage of a large basin to draw from just above the lower end. I am satisfied that such a diversion would increase the flow of water in the river at Scully Point at least 500 inches, and that the construction of proper headworks at said point would add another 500 inches to your present flow at the division gate. I therefore recommend that your companies secure the riparian rights and right of way for a canal at said place so that such a division may be made possible, and that they offer said right of way, together with the right to all the power that may be there developed from the water in said canal to a responsible company, binding said company to deliver all the water flowing in said canal into the canals of your companies at their tail race. signed, Director Sherwood voting in the negative. Applications on file for the transfer of stock were granted by the Board. On motion of Director McDermond seconded by Director Bradford, this president and secretary were authorized to renew for the term of one year at 6 per cent all notes of the company which are now due. The application of P. H. Krick for vacation of ten days at this time and a week later on was, on motion, granted by the Board. On motion of Director Bradford, this superintendent was granted a vacation of two weeks, the same to begin at once. On motion, the meeting adjourned. P. H. Krick, Secretary. SCHINDLER'S MEAT GETS AWAY WITH BIG END OF CEMENT CONTRACT Herr Presseff Complains He Does Not Get Share of City Blacksmithing—Kohlsenberger has His Water Shut Off. Local cement men were successful in obtaining contracts for sidewalks at the meeting of the city council on Tuesday evening as against Los Angeles and Riverside bidders. Five bids were submitted for laying cement sidewalks and curbs on various thoroughfares. Each bid was made in three sections, to conform to the resolutions adopted by council. These sections were numbered 37, 38 and 39, the first referring to work on Broadway, the second on Center street and the third to Lemon, Olive, Hermine, Claudina, Philadelpia and other streets. On Broadway 1836 square feet of sidewalk will be laid and 306 linear feet of curbing; on Center street, 16,219 feet of walk and 3064 feet of curbing; on the other streets, 91,791 feet of sidewalk and 16,-210 feet of curbing. Mayor Rust having returned from Juneau occupied the chair, and the full board was present, viz., Trustees Darling, Tyler, Fletcher and Berdrow. Clerk Merritt read the following bids for sidewalks and curbing. Each bidder agreed to furnish material and do the work under supervision of the superintendent of streets and to his rat- On motion of A. McDermont, Mr. Sherwood was appointed a committee of one to supply the necessary information to Mr. Fiske. A communication from F. Rimpau asked privilege of connecting a pipe line with either the Cypress street pipe line or the Sycamore street ditch. Referred to Zeyn with power. Director Bradford arrived and took his place on the Board. The following report of Engineer H. C. Kellogg was presented together with tables of depths: Santa Ana, July 21, 1904. To the Honorable Board of Directors of the A. U. W. Co.: Gentlemen—In accordance with your instructions I have established guages at the points directed, and submit herewith tables of depths from which the amount of water can be determined. Would suggest that a regular log-book be kept of the several measurements and that it be filled in at the end of each month from the several records of the zanjeros and superintendent. Very respectfully, (Signed) H. Clay Kellogg. A communication from G. Meger asked that the gate at his ranch be repaired. Referred to Ditch committee. A communication from the Olinda Land company called attention to the shooting being done on the A. U. W. Co. right of way through the Olinda ranch, and asked that owing to the danger of resulting fires that the shooting be not allowed. On motion of Director Sherwood, seconded by Director Bradford, the secretary was directed to notify the superintendent not to give any permission to shoot on our rights of way or on any of the lands of the company without the permission of the Board of Directors. A communication from the secretary of the Board of Directors of the Santa Ana Irrigation company notified this Board of the action of the S. A. V. I. Co. board in deciding favorably on the matter of purchasing certain riparian lands adjoining the river. The following report of Engineer Kellogg was here presented to the Board: To the Litigation Committee of the A. U. W. Co. and the S. A. V. I. Co.: Gentlemen—From an investigation of the flow of the Santa Ana river and an observation of the effect of the construction of the Riverside power plant, I have formed the conclusion that the construction of such works, if properly managed, will largely augment our summer water supply. The Riverside power canal carries the surface flow of the river for a little more than six miles, and is sufficient in capacity to carry all flow for at least six months in the year. Before the construction of said canal the average flow of the river at the intake of said canal was 300 inches in excess of the flow at the lower end of the same, where the water is discharged into the river. But after all the flow of the river has been carried in said canal for six months continuously, investigation showed that there was at least 500 inches of water in the river I therefore recommend that your companies secure the riparian rights and right of way for a canal at said place so that such a division may be made possible, and that they offer said right of way, together with the right to all the power that may be there developed from the water in said canal to a responsible company, binding said company to deliver all the water flowing in said canal into the canals of your companies at their tail race. I am firmly convinced that the construction and maintenance of the above outlined system will add 2,000 inches to your present water supply, or double the water now available for irrigation. Very respectfully submitted, (Signed) H. CLAY KELLOGG, Hydraulic Engineer. It was moved by A. McDermont that, Whereas, H. C. Kellogg, acting in the interests of this company and the S. A. V. I. Co., heretofore secured options to purchase the fractional north half of section 25, t 3 s, r 8 w; lot 4, sec 30, t 3 s, r 7 w; lots 1, 2, 3 and 80 acres adjoining in sec 30, t 3 s, r 7 w, all in Riverside county, Cal., for the sum of $9,000; and, Whereas, said companies deemed it advisable to purchase said lands for the reasons set forth in the report of Engineer Kellogg, said report being on file in the office of this company; and, Whereas, the Board of Directors of said S. A. V. I. Co. heretofore adopted a resolution to purchase lands in connection with this company and placed in the hands of the attorney of this company its proportion of the said purchase price; and, Whereas, it was deemed advisable to complete said purchase before this meeting of the Board of Directors, and it being found impracticable to hold a special meeting of this Board, the vice-president and secretary did, on the 30th day of July, 1904, issue a warrant on the treasurer of the company for the sum of $4,500 in favor of R. Melrose, to be used in completing the purchase of said lands; therefore, be it resolved That the action of the vice-president and secretary in issuing said warrant be, and the same is hereby approved, ratified and confirmed, and that this company purchase said lands for said price in connection with the said S. A. V. I. Co. The motion was seconded by A. S. Bradford and a vote being taken resulted as follows: Wm Crowther, A. S. Bradford and A. McDermont voted aye, and G. W. Sherwood and J. P. Zeyn voted no, whereon the president declared the motion duly adopted. Attorney Melrose submitted a deed from the Bixbys to the A. U. W. Co., which he presented to the Board before submitting to Bixbys for their signature. Moved by Director McDermont, seconded by Director Bradford, that the deed be submitted to Bixbys for signature.

On streets included in resolution 39—Sidewalks,$7334.10; curbing,$3890.40; total,$11224.50. Schindler gets the last contract and Gardner the two first named.Schindler's bid was $2000 lower than McIntyre's.Groat's bid was several hundred dollars above Schindler's. Marshal Steadman reported the following moneys collected during July: For water,$291.25; license,$509; electric lights,$389.75; total,$1190.Delinquents collected: Water,$25.05; lights,$6.15; total,$31.20.Delinquents reported: Water,$20.45; lights,$18.50; total,$38.95. Treasurer Hartung reported the following funds in bank: General fund,$1072.01; improvement fund No.1,$81; total,$1153.01. Clerk Merritt's financial report tallied with treasurer's figures. Recorder Howard reported collection of $30 in fines which had been turned Before the construction of said canal the average flow of the river at the intake of said canal was 300 inches in excess of the flow at the lower end of the same, where the water is discharged into the river. But after all the flow of the river has been carried in said canal for six months continuously, investigation showed that there was at least 500 inches of water in the river above the junction of its waters with the discharge from the canal, augmenting the flow of the surface waters of the river at the lower end of the canal about 800 inches. This I account for by the fact that the six miles of river bed between the point of the intake of the canal and its discharge, which averages from 2,000 to 3,000 feet in width, is substantially a trough containing a deposit of gravel and sand, averaging ten or twelve feet in depth on top of the permanent formation, and the voids in this large body of loose material being susceptible of carrying about two-fifths of their area in water and the bed having a gradient of eighteen feet per mile, the water will naturally continue to flow out at the lower levels after the surface flow is taken out at the upper end at the intake of the canal. As water will readily move through such material on a gradient as light as seven feet per mile, it will be seen that the upper portion of this gravel bed would drain out. Assuming that the water moves in this material at the rate two and one-half feet per hour, we find that the whole body of water would move two miles in six months. Taking into consideration the area of the basin, this would furnish an extent of flow at the lower end of the canal of about 550 inches, which is less than the actual observation shows to exist there up to this time. The excess can be accounted for by additions from side drainages that did not appear until the pressure was relieved in the main channel by the removal of its surface waters into the canal. As the overflow down the river Wm. Crowther, A. S. Bradford and A. McDermont voted aye, and G. W. Sherwood and J. P. Zeyn voted no, whereon the president declared the motion duly adopted. Attorney Melrose submitted a deed from the Bixbys to the A. U. W. Co., which he presented to the Board before submitting to Bixbys for their signature. Moved by Director McDermont, seconded by Director Bradford, that the deed be submitted to Bixbys for signature. Carried. Moved by Director Sherwood that, Whereas, an agreement exists between the A. U. W. Co., which specifies that either company is entitled to one-half of any water development by the other in the basin of the river upon the payment of one-half the cost of development; and Whereas, the S. A. V. I. Co. has developed and is now pumping about 200 miner's inches of water, more or less, near the head of the Anaheim new canal; therefore, be it Resolved That the Litigation committee be instructed to ascertain the cost of said development and make such other arrangements as will enable the Board at the next meeting to make a tender of the amount to the S. A. V. I. Co. and arrange to receive their one-half of said developed water. The motion was seconded by J. P. Zeyn and duly adopted. A communication from A. H. Koebig relative to cementing of ditches was referred to the secretary for answer. On motion, the matter of renting the ditches for the use of pumping plants was left in the hands of the Canjeros, they to report to the secretary, and a bill to be sent to for such service and all conflicting resolutions were repealed. On motion, the action of the secretary in selling to W. R. Carpenter ten barrels of cement without submitting to the Board was approved. A proposed agreement with H. C. Kellogg engaging him as hydraulic and consulting engineer for term of two years was, on motion of Bradford, seconded by McDermont, ordered to be Marshal Steadman reported the following moneys collected during July: For water, $291.25; license, $509; electric lights, $389.75; total, $1190. Delinquents collected: Water, $25.05; lights, $6.15; total, $31.20. Delinquents reported: Water, $20.45; lights, $18.50; total, $38.95. Treasurer Hartung reported the following funds in bank: General fund, $1072.01; improvement fund No. 1, $81; total, $1153.01. Clerk Merritt's financial report tallied with treasurer's figures. Recorder Howard reported collection of $30 in fines, which had been turned into the city treasury. Trustee Fletcher of the finance committee reported auditing bills to amount of $3912.18. Trustee Berdrow of the committee on public improvements reported water connections made for J. S. Howard, Charley Boege, O. Storm, Hunt and others; also that city teams were hauling gravel. Mr. Schwentker appeared before the board complaining of a difference existing in the reading of his water meter, as between himself and Engineer Lewis. The board decided to stand by the figures of the engineer, who was present and upheld the correctness of his reading. Trustee Lewis of the school board appeared before council and stated the school trustees had decided to purchase lots in the Kossert tract, at the corner of Broadway and Olive for the new schoolhouse, provided council would order a change in an alley running through the property. Council agreed to make the change, and the same will be entered on record in due time. Gene Adams requested a furlough of fifteen days from the power-house in order to attend the national guard encampment. Granted, he to receive ten days' pay and to furnish substitute. Blacksmith Pressel appeared before the board and complained of having been given the overlook by the marshal in the matter of city blacksmith work. For three years, he said, he had not shod a city horse, whereas before that time he appeared to have his share of the city patronage.

He did not understand this, feeling the Marshal was the party to interview regarding his complaint, and he asked for light. Steadman arose impressively and said he had never interfered with city teamsters regarding the shoeing of their horses. He left that matter to them, as they drive the teams and take care of the horses. They know where to go to have the best work done, and they don't go to a man who does not do good work. Frank Gates was the first city teamster who refused to take his horses to Pressel's claiming that gentleman did not know how to shoe a horse. He (Steadman) had since asked teamsters to patronize Pressel if they could consistently do so, but they invariably told him they would rather go to Charley Bauer or Stadtegger and he had not interfered with the matter further. The teamsters go where they get the best work and where the interests of the city are best served. Berdow said he thought city blacksmith ought to be divided up. Tyler acquiesced, adding, "other things being equal." The board took no action, except to suggest that Mr. Pressel be given a run for his money. Wm. Kohlenberger appeared before the board complaining of the unjust and arbitrary action of Marshal Steadman in shutting off his water. Kohlenberger admitted he had failed to produce when the city official called, and as a result his connecting pipe was high and dry, and it cost him another dollar to have the water again turned on. Steadman answered that Kohlenberger had in the beginning paid $10 into the city treasury for a water connection. This had been taken out in water, until in June he had owed the city 40 cents. His July bill amounted to $1.30, and with the 40 cents added amounted to $1.70. When he sought to collect this amount, he said, Kohlenberger replied vehemently he would not pay it. As Steadman walked away, he added, Kohlenberger again said he would not pay the amount. Steadman ordered the water turned off, which the board seemed to think was according to established rule.
