An Agreement Reached.

A compromise has been effected
between Attorney General Carson,
acting for the State of Pennsyl.
vania, and the attorneys for the
Mccall Ferry Power Co., in the
equity suit now pending in the
Dauphin county, Pa, courts. State
interference with the erection of
the dam will be withdrawn, if the
court signs the decree agreed upon
by the two parties to the suit.
The decree sets forth that the
company has the right to construct
the dam in the Susquehanna River
provided that it shall make ade
quate provision for the passage of
fish and that if at any time the
navigation of the river shall be. i'm.
proved under State or Federal re,
quirements the company shall build
such locks necessary to make navi-
cation continuous. If the company
fails to construct at its own expense
the locks required it shall be en-
Joined from futher maintenance OF
the dam.
The suit in equity to prevent the
construction of the Mccall Ferry
dam was instituted last fall by the
Commonwealth. 1t was alleged
that should the dam be erected it
would block navigation and send
water back over Is miles of the
river bed and banks of the river,
thus interfering with the rights of
navigation and of railroad COM
panies.
