This story of the conference was told in The Sun last week, and it was then stated that the trust company's applieatiou would shortly come up for hearing before the state engineer. Also it was said that the latter had announced his intention to reject the trust eampanys claim. Gov. Uharles R. Mabey was present at thia conference and was in agreement with the atate engineer in holding that the waters of Fish Creek had been reserved to the Price lliver Irrigation district and that filings on these by the Zion concern would not hold since these waters had been withdrawn except for COMPANY INSISTS ON WATERS Of FISH CREEK Last Tuesday's Deseret News says the llalloran-Judg- e company interests, pro; losing the irrigation of an extensive acreage ill Kaiqx'te county from the watera of Fish Creek, yesterday fill'd a corrected application with the office of K.
