War Department Orders Closing OF
the Locks OF keokuk From
Oct. 81, Until Dock and
Lock Arc Completed.
SEASON ABOUT OVER
Very Few Protests Are Heard to
Power company's Request to
Have Canal Closed
Ahead of Time.


The Quincy Herald has the follow
ing on the early closing OF the canal
at Keokuk:
The secretary of war has directed
the closing of the Des Moines rapids
canal to navigation midnight, Oct
ODER 81. and it will be kept closed
until such time in the spring of 1918
as new lock and accessories shall be
ready for operation" The above
statement is credited to Major Charles
Keller of the river engineers office at
Rock Island on receiving message
from Washington giving the decision
OF the war department The matter
has been under consideration since
August IA, when public hearing was
held at Keokuk.
This action Is taken to enable the
Mississippi River Power Co., which
is constructing the big Keokuk dam,
to complete the work and put the
power in operation at the earliest
possible date next spring. The COM
pany originally asked to have the
canal closed on September Is, but a
decision has been withheld until
now.

All Boats Retire Soon.

When the power company asked
for public hearing and expressed
the desire to have the canal closed,
river and steamboat men registered
a protest, as they argued the closing
of the canal SO early would cripple
steamboat service, with heavy loss to
the owners OF excursion and packet
boats. Through service was suspend
ed about three weeks ago, the ex-
cursion boats have gone south Or to
winter quarters, and 1t is possible
the remaining packets may be with
drawn after October. The recent cold
weather has hurt business and with a
big decrease already, the packet COM
panies may be ready to quit a week or
ten days sooner than usual.

Season About over.

Navigation, however, need not be
suspended entirely on the upper Mis-
sissippi with the closing of the canal,
but through passenger and freight
traffic will be impossible after No

packet Dubuque runs only to Keokuk,
as also does the Blair packet Keokuh
The Blair packet service between
Keokuk and Burlington will be knock

in operation until ice appears in the
river if business warrants.
