IMPROVE THE BRAzOS
Secretary Taft Issues Order for The
Preliminary Work at Once.

Washington, Oct 21.-On the
| theory that the government always
completes whatever river and har-
| Dor work 1t commences. the improve
ment of the upper BraZos between
Old Washington and Waco is assur-
ed.
The government now stands com
mitted TO this project as a result OF
an order made by the secretary of
| war yesterday, directing the expendi-
ture of $4,000 conditionally appro-
priated by the last river and harbor
bill in the following language:
The secretary of war is authoriz-
ed and directed to cause an eEamina-
ton Of this section of the river with
view of determining whether four
or sox months navigation can be
secured to Waco at a reasonable cost
by any method other than by locks
end dams. and if not. the least mum
bcr of locks and dams that will
Rurnish such navigation, and in the
event ii should appear feasible TO Sc
cure four and six months navigation
by open channel work or by not 10
exceed nine locks and dams, the sec
ratary Of war may eXpend for the i'm
proyement of said river an amount
not TO exceed SIS, 1000, which amount
under conditions named herein is
hereby appropriated.
The examination of the river was
made by Captain Jadwin. the district
engineer stationed at Galveston, and
his report was passed on by the board
Of engineers for the river and har-
bOrs, which, as was stated in these
dispatches at the time, filed its con
clusions with Mr.. Taft. who took the
matter up a few days ago, and the
order of today disposes Of il so far
as he is concerned.
Captain Jadwins report. which is
approved by the secretary, is to
the effect that four or six months
navigation can be secured through
the construction Of eight locks and
dams and some channel work. Tn
der the order OF the secretary the
SIS ,0o0 will be used in beginning
the construction Of dam No. /. which
will be placed at HidaigO Falls, six
or eight miles above Old Washing
ton 1t is estimated that the amount
will be sufficient TO complete one
wing Of The dam, and that approx
marely $300.0 .000 will be needed 10
finish the Improvement The ioca-
ti0n Of the other seven locks and
dams viii be decided on as the work
progresses. Bids for the perform
auce Of the first work will be adFer-
tised for IN due course.
The order for the expenditure of
the money condiUOnally appr0pri-
ated last winter is a recognition for
which Representatives Henry and
Burleson have long been coureGaing.
Both of them have been here for
some days past in order 10 give their
