$4SS,OOO, and at another line of sur
vey for $456,OOO. An Oregon state
commission reported that locks and
canal could be built all the way from
sS2O,O00 to s450,OOO, including
Sl25,OOO for right of way. A report
for 1898 showed 1885 separate
lockages. 2S4,451 passengers, and
5O4,145 tons freight going through
the locks. In 1899 the General Elec-
tric company offered to sell the locks
and canal to the general government
for s1,200,00O, but this was deemed
too high.
N What the Board Reported.
The board of U. s. engineers that
made the report in 1899 reported
that the public interests to be bene-
fitted and the commerce, present and
prospective, of the Willamette river
Justified the general government in
acquiring possession at a total cost
not to exceed $456,OOO, and they
found that to the above amount the
river was worthy of improvement at
the falls of the Willamette, by the
general government. If Congress-
man Tongue had lived this project
would have been the first to receive
attention at his hands. The reports
of the engineers are accompanied by
an opinion from the legal depart
ment of the government to the effect
that the general government has the
first right to use the waters of any
navigable stream for purposes OF
navigation. It would seem after
what has been done by the state
there are no serious obstacles in the
way OF acquiring public ownership
of the falls of the Willamette for
an open waterway to the ocean for
the rapidly inreasing commerce OF
the Willamette valley.

Hartford, Conn, Aug. 15.-The
Pope Manufacturing company, one of
the leading manufacturers of auto
mobiles in the country, with head Of
fees in this city and factories in
Hartford, Conn, failed yesterday for
s25 100000. Albert Pope has been
appointed temporary receiver. It Is
understood the failure Is due to en-
barrassment precipitated by the los
ing condition OF subsidiary COM
panies.
The Pope Manufacturing company
was the pioneer In the bicycle-making
industry, and few years ago,
through the purchase and absorption
OF other bicycle manufacturing con-
Germs, came to be considered as the
bicycle~makers' trust. When the
bicycle craze died down the company
embarked largely in the manufacture
of automobiles. and II ia now one OF
the foremost auto-builders in the
country. The company was incor-
porated under the laws tof New Jer-
sey In 1903 with capital stock
amounting to $10.000.00O.
