*"The statement that the traffic through
the SauIt Ste. Marie Canal for September ex-
ceeded that of the Suez Canal by 10000 tons
would probably be challenged by those not
familiar with the immense development of
the lake shipping interest. but statistics fur
nished by Gen o. NJ. Poe prove this to be
fact. In addition to this, the past month re-
cords a larger business through the canal
than heretofore known in its history. To
those interested in the Improvement Of the
rreat waterways il must be reminder that
The Ioekage system now in use in the canal IS
rapidly becoming inadequate to accommo-
date the marvellous trade of Lake Superior.
The passa ges through the canal in SePtem Der
were as follows: Steamboats,, 514; sail yes
sells. 300; RATS and unregistered craft. %.
The aggregate of registered tonnage was
531 $50 and freight tonnage ooo.9li, az log %
which was passed through the new locks 800
out of the I20 hours of the month being oe-
oupied in passing it through. ~. \. Times,

JUMPED TO DEATH.
Charles W. Bennett, formerly of
this City. Suicides In st. LOUIS.
The Inquest.

Charles W. Bennett, who was
landlord of the Windsor hotel in
this city fer a year or two up to Sep
TENDER l, 1886, is dead. Hejumped
or fell through a skylight at Hurst's
hotel, st. Louis, Thursday evening,
and when he struck the ground, rs
feet below, he was without life.
While a resident of this city, Ben
nett was given to periodical sprees
of several days duration each, but
he did not drink steadily. He was
on a spree when he met his death
and his friends think he raised the
window of his room to get air and
tell out. They don't think he sui
cided, as the coroner's jury returned
its verdict.
Ed Bennett, an employe of the
Normandy hotel, Kansas City, tes-
titled before the coroner that the
deceased was his father. He was
A years old, was bonn in Maryland,
a hotel keeper by occupation. Wit
hess received a dispatch from the
Superintendent of the St. Louis
Morgue yesterday, stating that his
father was dead. Deceased had some
business troubles lately, but witness
did not think these were serious
enough to cause him to commit
suicide. He went on a spree only
occasionally.
Thomas H. Parker, night clerk at
Hurst's, testified that Bennett was
under the influence of liquor at 1920
p. N. Thursday. He took room 324.
He could not sign the register, and
the clerk did so at Benefits re-
quest. He registered as Charles
Bennett, Chicago. At 9:25 O'Clock
the clerk heard 4 crash of breaking
glass, and discovered deceased ly-
ing ON the floor bleeding from the
right temple. He must have fallen
IS feet. He was not dead, and was
taken away in a patrol wagon by the
police. Mr.. Parker thought the man
had climbed upon a table and de-
liberately thrown himself out of
window with the intention of COM
hitting suicide.
Charles F. Huss, head porter at
Hurst's, testified to showing Ben
nett to his room. He left Bennett
in bed at first, but as Huss was
turning to come down stairs, Ben
nett partially dressed and came out
into the hall. Huss took him back
into the room, and when he came
out he heard Bennett lock the door
on the inside. The witness thought
Bennett suicided.
Deceased left a family consisting
of a wife and four boys, all of whom
are well known here.
