JUNENBURG VOTE INCOMPLETE.
The returns from Lunenburg county
showed that only four of the nine pre-
cncts had made a report, the vote being,
Lassiter SO. Southail So. It was stated
that gentleman present could give the
unofficial vote of the county. a con-
ference was held at this point by counsel
for the two candidates to see if they
would agree to accept the vote of Lunen-
burg. Colonel Mann reported back to
the committee that counsel could not
agree upon the vote of Lunenburg
county.
Mr. R. H Mann, representing Major
Lassiter stated that they desired the
actual returns While they did not wish
to make a contest, the friends of Major
Lassiter desired an inspection of the poll
book of the district. and in behalf of the
Congressman he would ask that the
committee appoint day and that the poll
books of the district be sent to the chair
man. Mr. Freeman Epps, and that they
be inspected by representatives of both
candidates, who would attend when the
books were in the possession of Mr. Epps.
He made no charges of fraud, but owing
to the fact that this was the first cleo
ton held under the new law and all Of
the Judges served without pay and were
new in the business he thought this
would be the best plan.
Colonel Mann. in reply. stated that his
side was willing to accept the figures
as published in the newspapers
The committee finally agreed to allow
the poll books to be examined and ad-
journed over to meet saoject to the call
Of Chairman Epps. The unofficial vote
of Lunenburg county gives Lassiter 30
majority. which would assure the nomi-
nation of Southall by majority Of 1874.

CANAL FROM The
LAKES TO THE GULF
HOUSE COMMITTEE ON RIVERS
AND HARBoRS HEAR ARGU-
MENTs BY TWO DELEGATIONS
FROM CHICAGO.

Washington, January 1S-The project of
giving a national aspect to the Chicago
Drainage Canal, making 1t a link in water
connection between the Great Lakes and
the gulf, was considered today by the
House committee on rivers and harbors.
Two delegations from Chicago were pres
ent one including the officers of the san
itary district interested in this larger
project, and another headed by former
Representative Adams of Chicago. who
appeared in advocacy of improved turn
ing basins in the Chicago river. The lat
ter project was first presented by Mr..
Adams, who explained the vast magni-
tude of the commerce on the river and
the difficulties and danger incident to
navigation at this time. The city is maxi
Ing extensive improvements, widening the
channel, erecting the most modern
bridges, ETC., costing in the aggregate
about ST., 100000. All of this benefited the
general navigation, and 1t was desired
that the federal government supplement
the work by providing turning basins to
cost about 100000.
w. II. BAKER, chairman OF the commit
tee representing the canal trustees, stated
the general purpose of the project of
extending that water to the Mississippi
and thence giving a cheap water channel
to st. Louis. OF the president the COM
mittee only asked a government survey
to develop the feasibility and advantages
of the plan, this survey to cost $780, 900.
Mr.. Baker did not go into the general
merits of the project, saying that the
arguments were the same as those so
fully presented last year. Chairman
Burns stated in this connection that the
members of the committee personally ex-
amined the project last summer and were
familiar with it's general features.
Mr.. Reeves of Illinois also stated that
the members of the committee were per-
sonally familiar with the situation and
that this obviated the necessity of long
hearing.
AT later day the committee will pass
upon the two items proposed.
