State engineers were here last
week looking over Cave Bank to de
termine how the. appropriation OF
5000 could b, best spent It Is said
tine conclusion was that the proper
place for the road would be along the
river, presumably on top of rip rsr
near ths shore. As the State Water
Supply Commission and the High,
way Department are two distinct
branches. ths former under whose
direcsioA the appropriation would b
expended, can have no control ovel
the road.
At Matamoras tho $4,000 appropri
alton will be used to eGtend the dix,
on up the river.
