Lockport, ILL.,, for the regulation Of thu
flow of water in the new drainage On.
nal which during the past few month.
has been the source of so much alarm
amongst vessel men at large. ana
amongst the Canadians particularly
lest the volume Of water diverted from I.
the Great Lakes to the Mississipn
should cause disastrous lowering a.
lake levels. Incident to this flow Of
water, which at first will be at the rata.
of 100000 cubic feet per minute, and
subsequently 600, 900 cubic feet per min
ute, Chicago, in addition to disposinr,
of her sewerage by way Of st. Louis.
and New Orleans, will become possess.
ed of the third greatest water power
in the United States. The only ma
terial sources Of power ranking above Il
are the Niagara Falls, and the st. Louis,
river between Duluth and Cloquet
This power is the exclusive property
of the municipality Of Chicago, and in
a short time between six million and
eight million horse power will become
available. 1t is probable that the entire
force will be utilized before the expir-
alton of many years. 1t is proposed to
derive a large income from this power
for the benefit Of the city.

THE OTHERS WERE IRREGULAR
Final Disposition Of the Matter VIII
Require Time. Owing to Many
Important Details.

the new capitol building were
opened today, but owing to the
fact that preliminary details must re-
ceive the attention of the commission
and the advice of the attorney general
taken regarding certain legal Questlohs
involved, no conclusion will be reached
until tomorrow. The details OF the plos
were as follows:
D. w. Starrat, Port Townsend, S9|"'-
1853; first alternative add, $S9,oOO; sec
ond add, $6681; third, $17, 1000; fourth, de-
duct $4,000.
John keenan,, Spokane, $4,000; no al
ternatives.
The bid of Robert Wakefield Of Port
land was informal and was returned
unopened.
Oskar Huber, Spokane, $9S6,545; iirst
alternative add, $26,540; second add,
$12,675; third add 11,34O; fourth deduct,
$121 200. Deduct $19,7SO if Tenino stone
is used, will use Denny Clay Company
roofing without extra cost.
F. D. Heustis and A. e. Barrett,
$946,000; first alternative add, $21,5OO;
second add, $500; third add, $45O0;
fourth, deduct $79,570.
The alternatives noted in the bid are
conditions in the specifications for var
ious kinds of material The bid Of Rob-
ert Wakefield was accompanied by
bonds from non-residents Of the state,
which is against the provisions Of the
law, and therefore could not be consid-
cred. The bid of Starrat was unac-
companied by bonds and will not be
likely to receive consideration. John
Keenan's bid being over the limit Of the
appropriation without any alterna-
tives can not enter the competition.
This would seem to confine the contest
to the bids of Huber and Heustis.
The bid of the latter stipulated that
If at any time during construction Of
the building the warrants should fall
in value below par that the time con-
Sumed in placing the same at face value
should be deducted from the time stip-
ulated for completion Of the work.
Members of the commission are re-
ticent as to the final disposition of the
matter as the many details to first be
disposed of render the result uncertain.
1t will be remembered that the last leg
islature appropriated $93O,O0O, which
amount was supposed to represent the
original million minus $4,000 already
expended in preliminary work. OF the
new appropriation there has been ex-
pended $36, 1864, leaving S93,S3S. So for
the completion Of the building, and it is
| now for the commission to decide if
! any one of the bids or desirable alterna-
tives come within the limit of the an
preparation. All the commissioners
were present today at the meeting with
| the exception Of Auditor Grimes. who
is ill in Ellensburg.
