The legislature started out by in

power. Then it indorsed another.
Then a third. And yesterday a resolu-
ton was introduced directing the gov
oTnment's attention to the splendid
water powers in northwest Georgia.
without naming any one in particular.
How many water powers are we go
ing to indorse?" inquired Representa-
tive Fullbright of Burke county.
Then somebody suggested that they
amend the resolution by striking out
the word northwest" AMI letting the
resolution indorse the splendid water
powers Of Georgia
This suited the authors of the res
oiution and suited the house, and the
resolution accordingly was amended
and passed.
Now let Uncle Sam quit worrying
about the location of that nitrate plant.
If he doesn't like one, he can take
another. Georgia has plenty of sites

HIGHWAY BILL HAS

there is no opposition to it.

CLEVELAND, 0, July 25.-Twenty-
two are dead and six others dying as
the result of disastrous explosion in
the big waterworks tunnel five miles
from shore under Lake Erie last night
The dead include those workmen who
were trapped under the tunnel only.
Ten workmen who had not penetrated
to the point of the explosion were res
cued.
The first party of rescuers, number
ing seven men, were all overcome by
poisonous gases in the tunnel and per-
ished, while six Of the second rescue
party also gave up their lives in the
effort to reach the imprisoned work
men. The third rescue party, equip
ped with oxygen helmets, were the
first to successfully penetrate any
distance into the wrecked tunnel. The
members of this party this morning
brought out one body, rescued Gus

The first tntimation of impending

entrance to the tunnel Dolan, who
appears to be the hero of the catastro-
phe, individually saved two members
OF the first rescue party, narrowly es-
Gaping death himself. The second res
cue party, which was forced to return
after losing several OF their number,
brought with them one almost suffo-
Gated member Of the first party, none
of whom returned to the opening.
The cause of the explosion has not
been definitely ascertained. and many
theories have been advanced as to the
probable cause The most generally
accepted of these theories is that the
pick of workman struck a gas pocket
causing spark, or that an electric
sparlt ignited confined gas within the
Zig tunnel. A circumstance that lends
color to this theory is found in the
disclosure that previous to last night
work inside the tunnel had been sus-
