Present Trilby, succeeded Virginia Iianed,
and Messrs Munson. Braden, and Sceats

PORT ARTHUR.
Government Work on the Ship Canal
Stopped by the War Department.

Captain M, L, Scovell has receiv-
ed a dispatch from Superintendent
f. S. Hammond, of the X, G. p. &
G Railroad, stating that through
the conniyance Of the opposition to
the ship canal at Port Arthur, the
work of dredging by the govern
ment has been suspended by order
of the War Department.
This is unquestionably an arbi-
trary, unjust and outrageous ac-
ton, which seems to have been
prompted by those parties whose
interests are opposed to having
Port Arthur made a deep water
harbor, and Thereby aiIording the
nearest and most convenient sea-
board outlet for the grain fields of
the West and the products of the
Southwest,
1t is needless to say that a strong
protest from these sections will be
made against this action of the
War Department, based as it is up.
on misrepresentation of those in
terested in other routes and out

day by the business men Of Tex
arkana, Kansas City and other pro.

action, and President S, b, Hicks
has called a meeting of the Board
OF Trade Of this city at 6 o'clock
this evening to discuss and take
such action in the matter as they
may deem proper, 1t is to be hoped
that such statement Of facts may
be made to the War Department
as will induce a reconsideration Of
its action, and allow the work Of
dredging to be proceeded with
