cause an inquiry to be made with a
view to the preparation of suitable
plans for the prevention of recur-
renee of such injuries.
Be it resolved, That the convention
of delegates representing the States
of the great Mississippi valley, from
Duluth to the Gulf of Mexico, gives
its unqualified approval to the move
ment for the construction of water
way connecting the great lakes at the
north with the Mississippi river and
the Gulf of Mexico at the south.
We. recognize the expenditure Of
thirty-five million dollars by the
Sanitary District of Chicago as prac-
teal demonstration in the furtherance
of this project. We express the hope
that the senators and representatives
in congress from the various States
represented in this convention will
give their encouragement and assist
ance to congressional legislation in
favor of the completion of the deep
waterway, to which the State of Illi-
nois and the Sanitary District of Chi
cago are committed as matter Of
policy, and by great financial expend.
lures already made.
Resovled, That it is the sense of
this convention that the work of the
Interstate Mississippi River
Improvement and Levee Association,
under the wise and able guidance Of
It's president, Charles Scott. has been
of great and lasting value, and its
continuance III matter of vital i'm.
portance, and that this organization,
as it exists, with Charles Scott as its
president, and J. w Bryant and w.
A. Eyerman as It's secretaries, be con.
tinued, and that Charles Scott be au-
thorized to appoint three members

THE STUDENTS RESPONSIBILITY.
President Schurman Gives Reason for Re
fusal of Demand.

Ithaca y Y. Feb. l9-For the last Two days
there has been a very strong student sentiment
against the university authorities because OF the
refusal TO grant the students demand that the
university establish temporary pure water supply
for student boarding and eating houses.
President Schurman. IN his address said the
trustees refused to grant this demand because INC
university did not want TO take upon itself the
responsibility for the health Of the student oooH-
The university he said. asks student TO remain

student must take upon himself the responsoIlt.
<or his health i he remains. He announced, now
eyer that The university would bear all the eN-
1,erse OF any pure water supply system that the
students might institute and operate themselves
This offer will probably be accepted by the students
at a mass meeting tomorrow.
