BOARD INVESTIGATES CANAL
(Continued from First Page.)
eral times thought tho scheme was on the
point of materializing, but hao been suc
cessively disappointed, so that even now.
we do not want to be oversangulno. So
far as the canal and power plant 'nro con
cerned, they are entirely distinct nnd sep
arate from the propositions for suburban
electric railways. For my own part, 1
doubt whether suburban roads would pay
out even for some time to come, until
nfter traffic should be developed. It cer
tainly would not' pay out unless It 'gets
cheap power, which can come only from
the construction' of n water power plant.
I should say that the suburban railway
franchise. It one Is to be granted, should
be granted lo the people who build tho
canal nnd power plnut, whoever they may
be, rather than to' any company or associa
tion which proposes either to dispose of
It to the power plant company or to hnld
It for speculative purposes. I Insist the
power plant project Is perfectly feasible
and Is a good butdness venture. Irretipec
tlvo of the suburban railway schemes."
Time l Xeeeimirj.
Some of the men pressing for. art Ion by
tho county cnininls?loners seem to be labor
ing under tho Impression that. If tho rlght-of-wny
mid franchise aro granted, as
asked, the suburban railways will ho con
structed at nnro and be ready for opera
tion, with power .from the canal plant, as
soon as completed. On this point City En
gineer Host water says:
"The Idea that great engineering works
can be designed and wrought out with a
turning of the band is entirely erroneous.
While the preliminary surveys for tho pro
posed canal and reservoir have been made
to the point of demonstrating Its prac
ticability, it would take -at 'least three
months of further surveys Mid detailed
fnglneerlng designing before actual work
on construction could begin. To build the
dam, which Is the foundation for Ihe reser
voir, would alone require. ' upwards of
eighteen months' time. If the other work
of digging the canal, constructing the
power houses, turbine wheels nnd building
the transmission line's, were done simul
taneously, so that all would ho finished at
tho same time. It would still take two
years befote the power could lie generated
and turned on."
The eastern end of the financial negotia
tion for the' canill' power plant hns been
In the hands' 6t' General R. M. King, the
lurhlno wheel manufacturer, who has as
sisted In the promotion of several other
power canal fcliumca of similar character.

WASHINGTON, Juno 7. The summary ot

of the bankruptcy law for tho period odd;

the attorney general by E. C, .Branden

ending September 30, ,t3!)9. nnd P.or.S j
for, thf six months cudlng March
31,- IS93. thus showing no appreciable varla- .
Hon from tho average number of. petitions
filed flnce tho law went Into oiicratlon,
though It Is .over 2,000. less than for the
corresponding period pf Inst year. For the
same period 1,07(1 petitions In Involuntary
ba.iiltruptcy were filed, this being slightly
In excess of Ihe nverago for tho last tv,o
years anda half.
Tho retort shows that a, large per cent
of thosip taklqg advantage of the voluntary
feature pf (he law aro old Insolvents scek
lug this means, of . resuscitating themselves
In the business world. During tho lust six
months 7,0,17 of tho voluntary cases lmvo
been closed. In these the lotnl llnhilltles.
dlrtjct and contingent, have been SSI.Wj,
0J7, while tho net assets realized for dis
tribution, as dividends have been $3,fiS7,H7.
The total liabilities In 7Cn cases wero less
than J00, .Id S10 vases ' between $.100 and
$1,000, rind, ui 3,000. cases' hetw.ecn $1,000

sums In varying amounts.
It also shows that 717 who" filed petitions
were farmers, 0,383 wage-rnruers. 1,377
merchants', 123 manufacturers, 113 profes
sional men hud tho balance had occupations
of a miscellaneous character.
Of the Inyolutitary cases 32.1 wqrc closed

bilities were'$4,'62i;.!m. whllo tho' total as
sets realized were $S7p,i(i7.
In Hawaii only three petitions havo been
filed, two for vqluntnry bankruptcy and one
fqr. Invoiuutnry bankruptcy.
--. In I'rovliirt Sn llnfnetory.
Mr. Brandenburg says that It ' may bo-
safely said that.' with one or two excep
tions, fcr which congress doubtless will
make provision at an early date, tho law
Is meeting almost universal approbation.
As tlmo passes Its superiority over many
of tho state Insolvency and assignment
laws In reducing tho expenso ot adminis
tration to a minimum, with the resultant
maximum dividends, together with tho dis
appearance of preferences, either through
legal . proceedings or fraud, he says, Is
redounding to the advantage of the busi
ness world,
The, experience gained. by the commercial
Interests under the presept law, ho says,
has afforded a keener Insight Into its
practical advantages than wns expected or
couid have been anticipated, anil while
the existence of tho prercnt law Is no
guaranty against fraud, or that tho dis
honest debtor will not endeavor to use Its
machinery jp his advantage and to tho
detriment of the , creditor whenever , pos
sible, yet the opportunities under the va
rious slate assignments and Insolvency
lttwstycre sjtjinuch greater nnd .tho. fraiul.

federal law has come, to bo looked upon
