the war department engineering
corps has disapproyel officially of the
project to have canal from the Mis-
sissippi at st. Paul to Lake Superior
they have decided that the citizens of
that section shall lave chance to be
heard on the proposal.
Date for hearing has not been Off

nounced today that full opportunity
will be given all to present their
views on the matter.
The special board report shows that
a careful examination of the project
does not warrant sle government in
making the required outlay, accord
ing to an official statement today.
Such a project would be as great
or greater than 'he Erie canal project
originally was. The cost would mount
into millions, and the engineers could
not find that this amount would be ex
pended proftably.

HANDS DOWN TWO
IMPORTANT RULINGS
(By United Press.)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.--The Su-
preme Court affirmed, with one exeep-
tion, the federal circuit court decree
reforming operations Of the st. Louis
Terminal association, controlling st.
Louis terminals and bridges, in which
it was held an Illegal combination.
The government appealed from the
circuit court s decree reforming the
association, because the lower court
refused to incorporate in its dissolu
tion decree standard form of con
tract for admission of new particpat-
ing members of the association. The
lower court merely directed that new
railroads should he admitted upon
equality with the original II railroads
which formed the Organization to con
troll the terminal and bridges.
Many corporations owning factories
on both sides of the river within the
terminal yard limits appealed for mod
ifcation of the decree in which the
association was barred from doing
other than terminal business-switch-
ing cars of railroads bringing them to
st. Louis. The factories wished the
association empowered to continue to
switch and exchange freight cars and
employees on commercial basis from
one part of the yards to another. To
bar the Terminal from this business.
it was stated, would force these facto-
ries to close or revert to horses and
teams.
The association asked modification
of the decree te allow its charging an
" arbitrary" fee for hauling freight
across the bridge from East st. Louis
and other Illinois points within a ra-
dius of 100 miles, cohtending that St
Louis was not entitled to the same
rates on freight originating in this
loO-mile zone as Fast st. Louis. or to
have the association forced to haul
sneh freight across its extensive
bridges free of charge
