Show 345 A No, sir. Q When you are investigating this for counsel, I suggest that you also look up the Sacramento, which has also been before the Supreme Court of the United States and held to be a navigable stream. A I would be very glad, if time permitted, to work up the profiles of all the navigable streams. The Special Master: No; that is not necessary. But it so happens that there are certain rivers which have been passed on by the Supreme Court. And it so happens that the Snake River is one of them-- what portion of it, I do not know. Mr. Collins: We shall be glad to get that data. The Witness: I know that the Mississippi, in general, and the Ohio, the Tennessee, and the Columbia, are well- know, large rivers, comparable to the Colorado River. By Mr. Farnsworth: Q By the way, where did you compute the San Juan River from? A Chinle Creek, the end of the river surveys. Mr. Farnsworth: Well, that is all at this time, reserving the right to further cross examine the witness, upon the conditions stated. The Special Master: Mr. Blackmar: Have you any further questions to ask Mr. Hoyt? Mr. Blackmar: Yes, two of three questions. 2310 |
