St.

Waterway
to
Cost
$500,000,000
Connecting
Lake

With
Ocean
-
OTTAWA,
Oct.
9.
The
St.
Lawrence
waterway
development,
on
which
negotiations
are
being
reopened
between
Canada
and
the
United
States
will,
it
is
estimated,
cost
$500,000,000.
The
proposal
is
that
the
two
countries
shall
contribute
equally
to
the
cost.
The
project
would
give
a
direct
connection
with
the
Atlantic
Coast
for
Lake
Superior
and
other
ports
of
the
Great
Lakes,
eliminating
the
necessity
of
transshipment
of
cargoes.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
Canada
has
already
contributed
$125,000,000
to
the
project
in
the
building
of
Welland
Canal
which
will
be
one
of
the
important
links
in
the
proposed
new
shipping
route.
.
Objecting
to
the
development
by
United
States
of
Canadian
water
powers,
which
would
be
involved,
Premier
L.
A.
Taschercau
of
Quebec
dubs
the
project
as
"premature."
There
is
plenty
of
power
in
Quebec
Province
already,
declares
Premier
Taschereau.

that
the

the
body
of
Peter
Anderson,
25-year-old

was
recovered
yesterday
afternoon
from
the
Ecstall
River
near
a
shack
In
which
he
was
living
while
engaged
In
wood
cutting.
It
Is
believed
that
Anderson
died
either
Sunday
or
Monday
last.
James
Madsen,
fisherman,
reported
to
the
police
that
he
had
sighted
a
half-submerged
boat
on
Monday
about
eight
miles
up
the
Ecstall
River.
Going
over
to
Investigate,
he
found
the
boat
was
anchored
close
to
the
bank
near
tho
shack
in
which
deceased
had
been
staying.
There
was
no
trace,

ever,
of
Anderson.

to
the
scene
and,
as
a
result
of
dragging
operations,
the
body
was
found
and
brought
into
the

It
Is
presumed
by
the
police
that

was
endeavoring
to
Jump

from
the
boat
with
the
rifle
In
his

and
that
