REPORT ON CALUMET RIVER U. S. A. Chief Engineer Pressnts Result of His Investigations

GETS FIRST PLUM IN TAFT CABINET

If ever there was a filthy, nauseating scandal and one which does news

papers no credit that print its shocking details, it is the Gould-Castellane-

DeSagan affair. For the past few years Anna Gould nas been mixed up in story after story, which surely must make the late Jay Gould turn, over

in his grave. If American girls ever needed a warning to shun the diseased offspring of the decadent royalty in France and other kindred countries, where the romance tongues are spoken, it certainly couldn't be made any stronger than tie Castellane-DeSagan affair. It would seem that Anna Gould might have hadV the decency after being involved with the scoundrelly Boni, to let the French nobility alone, but scarcely were one set of fetters free before she forged another pair for herself and the unfortunate little scions of the Gould family, who are unfortunate enough to call Anna Gould mother. There is no sympathy expressed for the woman. Americans will say it serves her right. The experience of the Gould woman Is nearly the same as others who. have married the monen-el-blooded aristocracy abroad. The DeSagan

case is absolutely sickening. It should be buried in chloride of lime or even stronger say mercuric chloride. TOO CLEAN TO BE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE. From this distance it looks as if Mr. Slack stands about as much show of being named senator to succeed Hemenway as the proverbial camel has of climbing through the eye of a needle. The reason for this is that Mr. Slack is too clean and brilliant a man. He is a temperance democrat and he has never been on Crawford Fairbanks' payroll. The brewery combine could hardly stand for Mr. Slack. They could do nothing with him. He would never subserve to their Interests. Hence he will not be United States senator. Mr. Slack is much in the same boat with Ex-Senator Kopelke of Crown Point. They are both too honest and too clean to stand any show of pulling secret wires enough to land them in the United States senate in the fight now on. THE DUTY ON ART.

KILLED AN AMERICAN MOTHER.

This is the true story of John Sweeney, of John Sweeney's mother and of the naval department. John Sweeney deserted from the navy, and the department KILLED JOHN SWEENEY'S MOTHER. What? It is true. Not intentionally, but they killed her Just the same. John Sweeney was the son of Mrs. Mary Sweeney of New York. About two years ago John disappeared from home and enlisted in the navy. Some time ago his mother learned her boy was quite ill in the naval hospital at San Francisco. The mother also learned she could buy her son's release for a certain sum of money. At great sacrifice she raised the money, sent it to her son and awaited his homecoming. And then one morning the mail carrier brought her a letter. She looked at it and fainted. It was her own letter returnoJ. and across its face was stamped in large letters: "DESERTER." From that moment she faded, and in a few days she died, the doctors said, of a BROKEN HEART.

And that was murder. Had Mrs. Sweeney lived in Russia, where bureaucratic government rides cruelly over human hearts, one might expect the red tape rules of barbarity. But in the United States! It is all right to punish ' deserters from the navy. That is necessary for discipline. But it is not all right to break the hearts of mothers by cruel customs. It is not all right to punish the innocent for the guilty. - This branding of letters is a part of

the eighteenth century procedure that used to tie sailors to the mast and lash their bare backs with the cat-o'-nine tails for some trivial infraction of the rules. The sufferings of the poor mothers

of deserters are sufficiently acute vica

rious victims of wayward sons with

out this pitiful branding of their moth-

ferly missives. The thing is a relic of the dark ages

We hear much about the inefficiency of our naval bureaus. Certainly a reform is needed as to their needless

cruelty.

It is no less a crime to kill a loving

mother because it Is done by bureaucratic brutality. The heartless custom of printing "De

IBrter" on the envelopes of friends

ihould be stopped.

The American Free Art League wants the duty on art repealed. It is a good healty sign that America is growing. Of course objets d'art are not needed as are other things and the repealing of other duties is far more important, but if beauty and culture amount to anything, why should it be necessary to tax the beautiful. The people of this country have lost seriously in being deprived of these things, for it is only the rich who pay for these things. The poor do not suffer and the United States can ill afford to be behind Europe in catering to the beautiful as well as the useful things of life. Taxed art is a tax on education. Why not remove the tariff of twenty per cent? It was Watterson who said that this tax on art "hop-scotched American civilization." NO ILL HAPPENS TO A GOOD MAN.

There are members of the Down and Out club who have never read good old Ben Johnson's truthful words. Ben had his troubles. Life was not all roses for him, but he said: "111 fortune never crushed that man whom good fortune deceived not. I therefore have counselled my friends never to trust to her fairer side, though she seemed to make peace with them; but to place all things she

gave them so she might ask the again without their trouble; she might take them from them, not pull them; to keep always a distance between her and themselves. He knows not his own strength that hath not met adversity. Heaven prepares good men with crosses; but no ill can happen to a good

man. Contraries are not mixed. Yet that which happens to any man may

to every man. But it is in his reason what he accounts it and will make it."

gold medal awarded annually by the Royal Astronomical society of London to the one person who has done the most during the year to further astronomical works. Recently Professor Brown was called to the chair of mathematics at Yale, where he will construct lunar tablets for use in all the nautical almanacs of the world, upon which are based computations for international navigation. The work, it is expected, will take at least ten years.

(Special to Thh Times). Chicago, 111., Nov. 29. The annual report of the chief engineer's examination and survey of the Calumet river, from South Chicago to n point east of Gary, Is now ready for the press. The report, la dealing with the river from Illinois east through Indiana, will be of great Interest to Hammond and Gary people. It reads:

4. CALUMET RIVER, ILLINOIS AND INDIANA. Before Improvement of

Calumet Harbor by the United States (1S70), this river, while having a navigable channel of about 100 feet width and 13 feet depth for about 4 miles length, could not be reached from the lake by boats of over S feet draft, because of

the bar across the lake mouth; and its commerce was then practically nothing. At the time of the Improvement of the river Itself (1884), the river bad become navigable for 12 feet draft over widths of about 100 feet and a length

of about 4 miles; and for boats of 5 feet draft over widths of about SO feet and lengths from the river mouth of about 16 miles in the Grand Calumet and about 14 miles In the Little Calumet. The commerce at that time was, however,

less than 500,000 tons. A good brief history of this river and harbor Improvement prior to 1876 Is given on pages 441444, Part 2, Annual Report of the Chief Engineers for 1876, and a very full description of present conditions la to be found on . pages 125128, Bulletin No. 18 (190S), Issued by the United States Lake Survey Office, Detroit, Mich.

The project for the Improvement of this river, adopted by Congress In 1884

and modified in 18S6, contemplated securing a channel 200 feet In width and 10

feet In depth below water la Lake Michigan from the mouth of Calumet Harbor, Illinois, about 11 miles upward, to a point one-half mile east of Hammond, Ind. This project was modified by the river and barbor act of June 3, 1S96, for

Calumet Harbor, so as to provide for dredging the channel to 20 feet depth

from the mouth 2 miles southward (npwnrtl).

The projects of 1884 to 1896, now ended, secured a permanent channel of

200 feet width and 20 feet depth from the mouth of the river about 2.5 miles

upstream (including a small turning basin near the mouth of the river), thence 16 feet depth about 3 miles further, except over short portions where rock reduced in width to 85 feet and the depth to 14 feet; and, in addition a tempporarp channel of 10 feet depth and 60 feet width, in the next 6 miles, up to a point on the Grand Calumet one-half mile east of Hammond, Ind. (about 11 miles above the mouth).

The present projects, adopted by act of March 3, 1905, provided for a chan

nel 200 feet wide and 20 feet deep from the mouth of the river to One hundred

and twenty-second street, and of the same width and 16 feet deep from One hundred and twenty-second street to the forks, with five turning basins, at a

total estimated cost of f662.480.50, and $10,000 per annum for maintenance.

(See p. 605, Annual Report of the Chief of Eugineers for 1906.) The construc

tion of the turning basins was made contingent upon the donation of the neces

sary land to the United States free of cost. (For estimates In full, see page 2942 2019, Annual Report of the Chief of

Engineers for 1904; for map see p. 1902 of the Report for 1903; also, for fuller

details, see House Document No. 172, Fifty-eight Congress, second session.) i For this work 9682,500 has been appropriated, and 930.OO0 more of contracts '

authorised (and not yet appropriated), thus providing for the entire project

and allowing five years maintenance at $10,000 per year.

The act of June 13, 1902, authorizes the Secretary of War to accept deeds, free of expense to the United States, for lands necessary to make a proper channel 200 feet wide from the forks up to a point one-half mile above Hammond, Ind. (a stretch of about 5.5 miles). Under appropriation of August IS, 1K04, for "above the forks," P5.130.75 is still available but dredging has been discontinued because of constant refilling. A resnrvey of this part of the river has been made to relocate the gronnd in such a way that owners-may know just what property is to be ceded to afford the best results to navigation. A statement of past examination and survey reports 111 be found on page 605, Annual Report, 1906, and reference to report on examination made In compliance with act of March 2, 1907, will be found on page 681 of this report. There has been expended to June 30, 1908, on works of all projects, the sum of 776,3G3.52, of which 8330,595.29, including 3,511.540 for maintenance, Is under the project of 1903, adopted by act of March 3 1905. Expenditures up to date have resulted In a channel of 21 feet depth (Chicago datum) from the river mouth to One hundred and sixth street, with 300 feet width at the harbor piers, diminishing to 200 feet width at about Ninety-second street, retaining 200 fet width to On hundred and sixth street (except at bridges); thence 20 feet depth with 200 feet width to One hundred and eleventh street; thence 21 feet depth with 200 feet depth to One hundred and fourteenth

street; thence 21 feet depth with 180 feet width to One hundred and twentyscond street; thence 17 feet depth with 180 feet width to near the Calumet Western railroad bridge (near One hundred and twenty-fourth street); thence about 5 feet mid-channel depth and 100 to 150 feet width (uudredged) to the

forks, now under contract to be deepened to 17 feet depth and 206 feet width; thence about 5 feet depth and about 50 feet width (dredged prior to 1895 to 10 feet depth and to CO feet width, but since partly filled up) to Hammond, Ind. One small turning basin has been dredged just above Ninety-second street with 250 feet least diameter aad about 12 feet depth. The river Is further navigable for 6-foot draft boats to Riverdale on the Little Calumet, 12 miles from the mouth of the river. It can also be used by light-draft launches, such as can pass under bridges, nearly to Gary on the Grand Cnlnmet, about 20 miles from the river mouth, and to Blue Island on the Little Calumet, about 14 miles from the river mouth, being stopped at that point by rapids. The water level has variations of about 6.5 feet from the highest known to lowest known ater, and an average of less than 1 foot per day. At dead low water the river Is practically level from the Lake up to the junction of the Grand and Little Calumet. The current Is vry slight except during freshet and lake seiches. Up to th close of the present fiscal year only one deed had been tendered of land for turning basins. On June 9j as tendered a deed conveying to the United Stntes the island In the river near Ninety-second street, and this deed is now in the hands of the Attorney-General's Department for examination prior to accptancc.

An application of the sanitary district of the city of Chicago for permission to reverse the flow of Calumet river, so as to cause the water to flow from Lake

Michigan Into the drainage canal (In a similar manner as has been done in the Chicago river), was denied by the War Department March 14, 1907, aad late.

by tmporary injunction of Federal courts; and the case is now being argued.

A final decision by the United States Supreme Court will probably be reached

this season.

The annunl commerce is now reported at 6,400,000 tons, the principal items being Iron ore, grain, and coal. It is steadily Increasing, and new manufacturing plants are steadily occupying the river banks as fast as the 20 foot depths are

carriea upstream.

Hot Springs, Va., Nov. 28. Frank H. Hitchcock has been offered and has ac

cepted the position of Postmaster General in the Taft cabinet to be.

The official announcement of this conclusion regarding the first cabinet se

lection of President-elect Taft has completed his cabinet, at which time it will be announced en bloc.

Because of this view of the situation no expression regarding the selection

of Mr .Hitchcock was obtainable for publication either from Mr. Taft or the

republican national chairman. There were many reasons, it was pointed out, why it was expedient that Mr. Hitchcock's status should be fixed, at least bo

far as the principles are concerned, and a complete understanding is known

o exist between them.
