BOARD DISCUSSED
RIVER DREDGING
Work sin the Christiana Pro-
crossing in a Favorable
Manner
COST OF KEEPING CHANNEL OPEN

For the first time since the summer
vacation members Of the Board Of
Trade met in regular session with
Thomas II. Savery in the chair
The meeting was devoted largely to
discussion Of the port wardens. where
they ended and where the government
authority started. The dredging OF the
Christiana river was discussed at some
length also.
Captain Horace Wilson said the mat
ter Of dredging the christiana river and
establishing the port wardens' lines
had progressed favorably. He has had
several conferences with Major Flap-
Ter, the government engineer in charge
of this port, and Major Flagler is heart
ily in favor OF the move.
Captain Wilson said the Board Of
Port Wardens win soon meet to discuss
the matter and the committee Intended
to hold a meeting to take action on A.
President Savery told the members
he had recently asked the head of ona
OF the largest dredging companies i'm
the country what his concern would
charge to keep the channel In the
Christlana river open. He was told
that the company would agree to keen
lhe channel, from the pulp mills to the
mouth Of the river, at a depth of q
feet and 200 feet wide for a term or ten
years for sum considerably less than
s2e,OO0 a year He said the board was
now getting things down to a definite
point There should be a constant
depth Of q feet and the board now
knew what it would cost to maintain
that depth for term OF ten years.
Much Material TO be Moved.
Major Flagler had given it as his
opinion that at least 10000 yards or
material would have to be removed
from the stream every year to keen
the channel open. At the end Of ten
years the places for repositories along
the river would be about exhausted

What Russia Thinks.

st. Petersburg, Sept 2, 1.25 .. M
NO absolute information has reached
the War Office confirming the reports
thate Lao Yang has been occupied by
the Japanese but it is positively known
that General Kuropatkin decided to
withdraw from his positions south Of
Lao Yang 10 the north or right bank
OF the Tai-Tse River Tuesday night.
and the orders were actually given. as
stated in these dispatches yesterday.
The War. Office presumes that the
movement was carried out, since the
latest advices yesterday were that the
crossing Of the river was not being op-
posed.
The fact, disclosed for the first time
in these dispatches last night that the
strongest Russian position prepared
by General Kuropatkin was not around
the town of Liao-Yang. as the public
had been led to believe. but on the
right or north bank of the Tai-Tse
River was a secret so successfully
guarded that not even an intimation of
It had leaked out.
1t is now explained that the Russian
commander-in-c -chief had all along an
ticipated that the Japanese, when they
made their advance on Liao-Y Yang,
would pursue the identical tactics
which had been so successful in every
previous stage of the campaign, and
while attacking in front would attempt
by wide detour TO outfank the Rus
sian position.
This time General Kuropatkin was
not caught mapping. He was pre-
pared for just what happened, and as
sooon as he received word that Cen
eral Kuroh had crossed the Tai-Tze. |
twenty miles above Liao- Yang. and
was moving westward. Kuropatkin met |
the move by throwing his whole army
over at night.
Say itsis a Russian Advantage.
BY this piece Of strategy Kuropatkin.
IN the opinion Of the general staff,
gained an immense advantage. His
army is concentrated on one side of
the river and the road is still open
for his retirement northward while
the Japanese armies, which must act
IN unison, are separated by the river,
which places Kuropatkin in a position
10 oppose Kuroki with his whole army.
while Generals Oku and Nodzu are
stranded on the other side. which gives
huropatkin possible opportunity to
initiate Napoleon's tactics and defeat
