Baron komura Says Japan viii Keep
Treaty Pledges.

mura, recently appointed Japanese am.
bassador to Great Britain, arrived to-
day by the Canadian Pacific railroad
steamer Empress OF Japan on his way
TO London, via Quebec, from where be
sails by the Empress Of Ireland on
August 0.
Baron Komura said with regard to
Japanese action in Manchuria that the
Japanese government would undou bted.
ly carry out all the pledges made before
and since the war to maintain "the
open door" in Manchuria. Regarding
the criticism OF foreign merchants, he
said these were due to impatience.
The terms OF occupation demanded that
Japan adopt the measures nov in vogue,
but as soon as the military occupation
was ended and this would be soon, ar
rangements would be male to carry out
the pledges regarding an "open door"
policy. Tiue. the bulk OF the army
had been repatriated, but there was
still q large force Ia Manchuria. There
Was also Russian troops in occupation.
While 1t was not known definitely what
Russia was doing regarding the with.
drawal, 1t was known that troops were
steadily being withdrawn and 1t was
necessary that the Japanese military
administration continue to occupy the
country until the withdrawal was com.
plete.
"Has Dalny been made a FREQ port
and are other nations than Japanese re-
stricted from trading via that port with
Manchuria?"
"That l cannot tell you," replied
Baron Komura. "This much can cay,
though, the pledges made by Japan re-
garding Msnchuria will be carried out
in every particular as soon ne the term
of occupation by the military forces has
expired"

TOPOGRAPHY.

We find the above stream
flowing through a very brok
en- country and from the site,
most suitable for building a
dam, up to the point in the
river where your option on
fowage rights ends, the river
bottom is sand rock, banks on
either side rise precipitously
to a height far beyond that
ever needed, with no ''draws"
ar water WAYS running hack
into the country through
which water would flow back
from the river into lower lev
els when the water was rails
ed tothe crest of a 40 foot
dam.

SEEPAGE.

Because of the rock bottom
and red clay sides of this river
little or no loss will be sus-
tanned because of seepage.
Taking the Typographical
conditions as we find them at
present into account, it is
what we call an ideal propo-
sition; provided the head and
water supply is sufficient for
your needs.
THE DAM SITE.
This we consider very we'll
chosen for the reason that
the ledge has been parted at
this place leaving both sides
of solid rock, the stream
changes it's direction just
enough to allow the building
of part of the dam proper,
the Denstock, wheel pit and
pow r house without Golfer
damng, then by building a
low cofferdam, the stream
can be turned through the
fune and wheel pits, while
the balance of the dam is be-
ing built.
