compelled to leave Norway for q
time.

WATER WAYS COMMISSION.
International Work Completed at
Buffalo Yesterday.

The international water ways commission
which completed It's work Thursday at Buff
faio. has made public it's report. 1t rec
ommends that, exclusive of water required
for domestic use the services of locks
in navigation canals. such diversions be
limited on the Canadian side to 80. 600 cubic
feet per second, and on the United States
side to 1880 cubic feet per second, and in
addition thereto a diversion for sanitary
purposes, not to exceed 1o,o00 cubic feet per
second. be authorized for the Chicago drain
age canal, and that a treaty of legislation
be had limiting these diversions to the
quantities mentioned
The effect of the diversion of water by
the Chicago drainage canal upon the gem
eral navigation interests of the great lakes
system will be considered in a separate
report.
Any treaty or Arrangement as to the
preservation of Niagara Falls shall be linn
lted TO the term OF twenty-five years. A
memorandum was drawn up embodying the
following principles In dealing with the
whole subject:
No obstruction or diversion shall be per-
nitted in or upon any navigabie water
crossing the boundary in or from streams
tributary thereto which would injuriously
affect navigation in either country.
Each country shall have the right of d.
version for irrigation or extraordinary pur-
poses In equal quantities of the waters OF
non-nav,gable streams crossing the inter
national boundary.
4 permanent joint commission can deal
much more satisfactory with the settle
ment Of all disputes arising as to the appli-
cation of these principles, and should be
appointed.
The American members were of the opin-
ion that the enunciation of principles 10
govern the making OF q general treaty was
not within the scope of their functions
moreover. the Jurisdiction of the American
members was restricted to the great lakes
system.
The resolution in regard to the diversion
OF water from the Sault Ste Marie river
provided that the governments Of the
United States and Canada should reserve
all water necessary for navigation purposes
at present or In the future and that the
surplus should be divided equally between
the two countries for power PURPOSES.
