WASHINGTON Cry. Jan. %. Especial. l.
Senator Squire has received the hearty CO.
operation of the secretary of war and the
chief of engineers in his efforts TO pass the
bill for the canal from Lakes Washington

upon suggestions received, modify his
bill and ask only what can be profitably
expended the first year on this work, as it
is doubtful if the House would consent to
a lump sum for the work. Senator Squire
has received assurances from several men,
bers of the House that the bill will be put
through, and he thinks that an appropri-
alton sufficient to begin work can be Sc
cured
