Three- quarters of a million cubic yards of earth and rock slowly slipped into the canal prism that night, block- ing the waterway for almost half a mile, and closing the canal com_ pletely for a thousand fcet to the passage of vessels larger than tow- boats. The great slide was at- tacked with every available dredge almost instantly. Two of the dredges were working south of Gold Hill and very near the glide and one of these, which digs up fifteen cartloads of dirt at every thrust, bezan work on the mass while it was stiil in mo- tion. The slide was attacked from every angle, even a distant suction By having your Fall Clothes' -made to your INDIVIDUAL Measure by us dredge being connected by pipe line |§ to take part in the work and by noon Oct. 20 the channel was suffi-{§ ciently clear to allow the passage of seven vessels which had been de- layed at the south end of tne canal. At last accounts no further earth movement was indicated in the cut, but practically all of the mass in- volved in the slide of Oct. 14 and 15 remained to be dredged from the prism outside of the chanuel proper, and this work may cause further motion in the mass. SUGGESTS NEW PLAN FOR MANAGING RAILROADS Kansas City, Nov. 3.—Establish- ment of railway ‘“groups,” some- what after the manner of regional eserve banks, each group to be gov- erned by a board of directors on ‘which the government would be rep- resented, was urged as the solution ft jof the poblem of railroad operation by E. P. Ripley, president of the 0 | Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe in an address before the Knife and Fork Club in this city. Mr. Ripley paid the idea was his own and he {did not know that his own board of lrdlrectoru would approve it. “The present system of manage- ment cannot last,” said Mr. Ripley. “But government ownership is not the solution. No one can point to any business enterprise successfully and economically conducted by the |government.” Mr. Ripley pointed to the num- ber of luxuriously appointed trains leaving the same terminals for the same destinations at the came hour ‘daily. He urged co-operation that some of this competition might be eliminated and consequently the “waste involved” might be reduced. THE SHARK MISSED THIS ONE Pensacola, Nov. 3.—Danjel Grant, a white man who has becn missing since Friday night last, was account- ed for Sunday afternoon when a launch with a party of fishermen aboard came across the floating body of Grant in the western port of the harbor. No marks of violence were found upon the body, and it is be- lieved that he fell into the water and drowned, although newspapers were found in the pocket of his coat which were believed to nave been carried by Grant to read, and becom- ing drowsy he had fallen into tre water from some point. He was about 35 years of age, and came to Pensacola some time ago from Tam- pa, engaging in the deep sca fishing business at this point. The coroner viewed the body and decided that an inquest was unnecessary. THE WAR IS HELPING CHICAGO Chicago, Nov. 3.—Chicago bank- ers who are taking part in the ne- gotiations of some of the belligerent nations of Europe for supplies in this country said that Chicago alone has | come in for $7,000,000 or $8,000,000 $5 Styles $3 Oua' ENGLISH WOOLEN Mil Hatters and Tailors Futch & Gentry Bldg, LAKELAND, R. A. BLUMBERG FLORIDA EDITOR RETURNS WITH GOOD NEWS Jacksonville, Nov. Charles H. Whlton, of the East Coast Advocate, Titusville, has just re- turned from a three months’ sojourn in the Northeast, much of his time being spent in the New England States. “If I can j udge from what North- ern reople have told me in hotels, clubg and private homes the past summer, Florida, and especially the East Coast, will be crowded with tourists and prospedtive settlers this winter,” said Mr. Walton yester- day. “There have been more inquiries made of me concerning Florida than one could believe,”” he continued, “‘and they came from men and wom- en in every walk pof life. The well to do will come because of the pleas_ ures of a Florida season, the middle class will come for vacation and in- vestment, while the class that works hard, especially on their farms, will come because they can get cheaper lands and better lands, and be able to make more from their work in six months than they now make in a year.” Mr. Walton said that he talked with many who are coming to Jack- sonville, because they know from re- 'ports that this is one of the best cities in the South, and ho predicts that the hotels in this city will ha\'e| ‘a year of business which will tax| their capacity and make them joy- of this business to date, and more i gy, larzae orders are pending. Great Brit- ain is making payments chiefly through the trade balance exchange plan. From Chicago bankers it was learned that there is on deposit in the United States not less than $50,- 000,000 of private German capital much of which was sent here as a i | precautionary measure in the carly days of the war, while additional sums were forwarded later to cover purchases of commodities. The Red Cross fund in Chicago to- tals to date $75,000. —————— In the freight tariffs which are now being checked over in Chieago, T., more than 20,000 points in the West alone are covered and three or four times as many in the entire country.
