This morning Mr. Mackenzie said
that he was pleased to see the sub
stantial growth the towns along the
c. N. R. were making He was par
ticular impressed with the substan-
tial and permanent character of the
buildings being erected which showed
the people had faith in the future of
the country. The growth of the
country was marvellous and the C.
N. R. were doing all they could to
meet the increasing needs of the grow

their best efforts to put the roadbed
in condition but the heavy rains this
season and the character of the soil

foundation piers about $3.50 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. The accomplish
ment of this feat was signalized by
the blowing Of whistles in the harbor
and rush Of 80 or more steamers
which have been bottled up since last
Friday night to clear for the lower
lake ports. The removal of the span
provides channel 23O feet wide or
20 feet narrower than the old one at
the draw. The engineers have, taken
measurements and found there will
be 40 foot channel with from rs to
30 feet of water while the least depth
in any part Of the whole 230 foot chan

it is claimed that the largest lake

BLAME P|L|NGS
FOR FATALITIES
Coroner's Jury Sits at Winni-
peg on the Recent Drowning
Accident in Red River.
MEETING LASTED FOUR HOURS

Special to The Evening Times.
Winnipeg, Man., Aug. 15.-The cor
oners's jury, which sat last night to en-
quire into the drowning fatality of
Saturday afternoon, returned an open
verdict intimating that the responsible
ity for the accident rested on the party
or parties who placed the piles in the
Red river, leaving them unprotected
as menace to navigation. They made
no attempt to name those persons, but
offered several recommendations re-
garding distractions to navigation and
the duties of the city council. Their
finding was as follows:
That May Whyte, Ruby Thomson,
Myrtle Brown, Ethel Brown and Ernest
Brown came to their death by drown
ing. That the motor boat in which
the said parties were riding struck
some object which was invisible and
which caused it to capsize. We be-
lieve the said object to be stationary
pile. We find that a considerable
number of piles have been driven in
the river for numbering purposes and
In some cases they are unmarked and
form serious menace to the naviga-
ton of the said stream, and we be-
lieve the parties responsible for the
care and maintenance of the said pill
ing to have been negligent in not pro-
perly marking these distractions in
manner sufficient to warn boats
navigating the river, of their location.
We consider it unfortunate that none
of the young people who met their
death seem to have any knowledge
of the art of swimming, and in that
connection we would draw the atten-
ton of the city council to the lack
of facilities for the youth of this city
acquiring such knowledge. We also
recommend that all pleasure boats be
compelled to carry sufficient life belts
to supply the passengers carried in
case of an accident, and also that
immediate steps be taken by the proper
authorities to at once remove or
properly mark all dangerous OBJ
structions to navigation in the Red
and Assinihoine rivers adjacent to the
city of Winnipeg.
While the evidence was being taken
Mr. Isaac Campbell was on hand rep
resenting the interests of the Sprague
Lumber Co., Mr.. N. F. Hagel, the fami..
lies Of the deceased and Mr.. George
Patterson for the crown. The hearing
occupied over three hours and quar-
ter before verdict was arrived at.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
San Francisco, Aug. 15.-Charles
Hendry, local representative of the
London and Lancashire Fire Insur-
ance company, must answer all ques-
tions propounded by the grand jury
or go to Jail for contempt of court.
Such is the judgment of Presiding
Judge Graham, before whom Hendry
appeared yesterday on a citation, d.
recting him to show cause why he
should not divulge the names of the
companies in London and Lancashire
whose policies are reinsured and
whose embargo" on the London and
Lancashire has made it necessary for
the latter corporation to make hori-
zontal cut on all policies on payment.

TYPHOID AT DACOTAH.
Sixteen Cases Developed This Season
on Farm-Impure Water the
Cause,


Cause.
Special to The Evening Times.
Dacotah Siding, Man., Aug. 15.-On
one of the large farms near here there
have been sixteen cases of typhoid
fever developed during this season.
The majority of these cases have been
among the laborers. but the owner of
the farm and his wife and daughter
have also been among the victims.
The patients have been treated at the
hospitals of Winnipeg and st. Boni-
face and on the farm. The disease
is attributed to the use of water from
tank in the basement of the house.
The water had been gathered in the
winter and kept for a long time in an
unsanitary condition. 1t seems strange
that such state of affairs could ex-
list within twenty-five miles of the
city and not be investigated by the
provincial health authorities.
