about 100000 tons of coal annually
If sufficient boats are placed in opera
ton on the canal to handle a million
tons. congestion on the railroads will
be materially relieved. In short, gov

route is a national as well as local
proposition, they stated. and, if effected
will at least assure Washington of a
sufficient supply of soft coal next win

tage Washington would reap through
developing the canal as a food artery.
He advocated linking this waterway

TT Is quito evident that the project
lis worth very serious consideration.
Unless some insuperable obstacle de-

pendently or in coordination with OK
isting private transportation agencies
on the canal, supply barges up to tho
capacity Of the canal for operation.

PICK UP ORDERS
FOR GERMAN SUBS

Wireless operators on
American and other ships crossing
the Atlantic at night frequently
pick up orders being sent by the
German admiralty to submarines at

acknowledge receipt of the orders
because if they did some warship Of
the enemy might get a clue as to the
location Of one or more Of the

Niagara Falls, n. Y, Aug. T.
After being marooned on a sand
scow within 1000 feet Of the brink
Of Niagara Falls for 16 hours,
George Harris Of Buffalo and Gus
Lofberg, a Swedish sailor, were res
cued this morning. The scOw broke
away from tug late yesterday
while being used in dredging oper-
ations on a power channel and with
the men on board was carried into
the rapids and directly toward the
crest of the Horseshoe falls.
A shelving rock caught the craft
and held it, The life savers sue
ceeded in getting a line on the boat
last night but the length of the rope
was so great and the scOW so low
in the water that the life line sag
ged into the swift current and it
was impossible to operate a
breeches buoy. The life savers
abandoned their work at midnight.
SearchIights We're kept on the
wreck and an electrical sign was

know that they had not been aban-
GOned.
This morning a second line was
shot across the wreck from the
roof of the power house where the
shore end of the cable was anchored
and with it the breeches buoy was
hauled out by the two men. Lof-
berg helped Harris into the
breeches and he was brought in.
The weight of his body on the rope
caused it to sag deep into the cur
rent and there was danger that the
extra strain on the scow would
tear it loose from its uncertain pos
ition on the rock.
Harris was exhausted when he
was taken from the breeches buoy.
The breeches buoy was hauled
back to the scOw by Lofberg and
half an hour later he was safe
ashore.
Harris was submerged for 20 sec
0nds at time while he was being
brought in, but Lofberg was able
to keep his head above water at all
times. despite the heavy sag Of the
