Disapptova If the suggestion to ma he
a deeper waterway in the Potomac

contained in a report from the office of
the chief of engineers Of the tnited

Representatives. today
The report. transmitted by Secretary
Of War Garrison, contains a detailed in
vestigaiion by COL. W. G. Laaeiitt and
report by Col. r. V. Abbott both Of the
Ensinee: Corps. Both officers have de-
cided that the great expense Of improv-

Views of Col. Abbott
IN the portion of the report signed by
Col. Frederick Abbott OF the Army Engi-
neer Corps, it is stated:
The Improvement of navigation on
this riyS eliminated in the construction
OF theOeXistinE Chesapeake and Ohio
canal during the period from ABOUT 1874
to 1880. The canal has been maintained
and is still in operation.
1T is used principally for the trans porta-
ton Of coal from Cumberland TO Tide
water. the amount carried ranging from
about 10000 to o-oS,UU0 tons annually
during the past ten years The rate on
coal from the mines to Tidewater is re-
ported to be S1.65 per ton. whether by
rail or by rail and canal The mines
are not immediately adjacent to the
canal, and attention is called to the fact
that ali coal shipped by the canal must
first be carried from the mines to the
canal by rail. The section of country
traversed by the canal is well supplied
with rail transportation.
Col Abbott says that several hear
inss on the subject of improving this
waterway were held at different points
along the Potomac.

Strong Rivals for
Dartmouth Team

HANOVER, y. H.. Jan, 1t.-Dart-
mouths relay teams have been
matched by the Boston Athletic As
ISOLATION against strong rivals in the
games in Boston, February 7. The
varsity two mile team runs Penn and
the one mile team will meet NJ. |. L.
The milers will meet Tech" in the
latter race for the seventh consecu-
tive time and the Massachusetts team
is known to be at least up to the
standard OF former years. The var
sitys quartet, 1t is expected, Will
surpass that OF a year ago.
The combination from Penn is
probably the best two-mile college
team of the East this year. Dart
mouths prospects for a team in this
event are, however. poorer than last
year.
