TakingSoundingsEIc Along Water Front A 30c Sheeting for 25c His plans will recommend that the Department of Railways and Canals take over the. Lindsay tOWn wharf. The town will readily deed them the wharfs as part of the Trent Val- ley (‘anal System, if the, improve- ments recommended are carried out. These are that the present wooden structure be replaced by large mod- n concretg docks, extending from the LindSJy-St. bridge to the row of green launch boat houses, a distance of about three hundredifeet, in a direction northwest. Two unpainted canoe boat houses on town property would he removed. The proposed dock would be built in three sec- tions. One, fairly low, for small launches will be built at the north, next would be one a' little higher for steamers at low water, and closest to the Lindsay-st. bridge a dock, highest of all, would be placed for £83 at high water when the lower docks are flooded in the spring. The highest dock would be about the height of the southerly half of the present timber wharis. Conveniently placed on the dock would beashel- ter for steamer passengers to wait in rainy weather. The town 'on its. part will do away with the unsafe wooden steps leading to the docks from Lindsay-st. and termed the ' grounds where the steps now stand.

The corner jutting out into the river will be cut of! for flyrol)alily twenty or‘thirty feet into film bank, and a‘cvoncrcte wall built '3“ the way along, similar to the Ishort one now existing ashort dis- gtance west from the locks. ‘The 'grounds would he terraced down to 1the level of the wall.

For the next two or three days, ,Mr. O’Kelly will be busy taking fsoundings of the river bed as far as che first bend, with a view to hav- ‘- in»: the ridges of rock. and refuse :left by the dredge icleaned out. :These have been very dangeroua to inavigation, and boat owners have 'compiained of them, especially at 9low water, when they made the rivâ€" er almost unnaVigable.

PARIS, May 12. ~â€" ‘l‘he Socialists were very successful yesterday on the second ballot for members of the Chamber of Deputies. 61 of them be- ing elected.

The Call- ‘laux Radicals managed to hold thelr ‘own, electing 74 members, which ‘wlth 87 elected on the first ballot. gives the "party '161, as compared ‘wilh 156 in the old chamber.

The Radicals and other groupshad almost as many platforms as candidates. In I_.I- r.â€"._._ The Eriandists lost ground by lack or preparation and general slackness in campaigning. The Premier also said that what- ever conversations were proceeding between the heads of the political parties were confidential at predent.

May 12. â€"â€" While peace negotiations marked time pe'sding formal sittings of the South American mediators to begin yes- terday on Canadian soil, the media- tors and omciais of the State Depart- ment here yesterday were occupied with several serious phases of the Mexican situation demanding immed- iate attention. Secretary Bryan call- ed at the Argentina legation late in the afternoon and spent two hours in conference with the South Ameri~ can envoys, discussing the continued detention of John R. Stillman, Ameri- can vice-consul at Saltillo, by Mexican Federals; the reported seizure of L0- bos Island with its lighthouse by American torpedo boats and the ease of the five South Americans under ar- rest at Vera Cruz for firing upon United States sailors and marines. Mr. Bryan insisted that the release or. Silliman must; be brought about at once. When asked about the mat- ter later. he would not say what would happen it the vice-consul were kept in prison, but he was gravely emphatic in announcing the Govern- ment's determination that he be heed. Justice Lamar. of the‘ U. S. Su- preme Court, and Fred. W. Lehman. former Solicitor General, were chosen by President Wilson as the American representatives. From Huerta are hastening forward Augustine Rodrigâ€" uez, Emilio Rabasa and Luis Elgu- ero. Ambassador De Gama. or Bra- zil, Minister Naon, of Argentina and Minister Suarez, or Chile, the media- tors. last night expressed satisfaction in the selection of the advisers for both Governments, and little further is expected in the prelfininary peane negotiations until all have met in Canada. in announcing the Lobos Island in- cident the Secretary informed the mediators that so far the United States Government had received no otflcial confirmation of the taking of the island and that in the absence of confirmation he could enter no official explanation or the reported action of the navy. In administration circles it is contended that if the seizure has been made, it was not an act of ag- gression against Huerta. but merely a necessary step to protect oil ship- ping against possible disaster as a re- sult of the closing of the lighthouse by the Federals. From Tampico. where Mexican Federals and Constitutionalists have been preparing for a sanguinary struggle, came rumblings of battle. while reports that Huerta's strength was‘waning in Mexico City, and that the bandit leader, Zapata. was about to attack the capital from the south served to arouse diplomatic agents or foreign nations lest their people in Mexico City might be in imminent danger of persecution or death. -n,:1n_ While the representatives appoint- ed by Gen. Huerta. to confer with the mediators were preparing to leave Vera. Cruz, the U. S. Government of- ficially announced its representatives in mediation negotiations before the South American triumvirate at Niâ€" agara Falls. Ont. next Monday. ‘ Justice Lamar. of the U. S. Suâ€" Gen. Carranza and the Mexican re- bels who seek Huerta's overthrow. will not be represented in the con- ference, according to the latest adâ€" vices. “â€"0-- -7 . The only sign of military activity in connection with the Mexican situa- tion was the gathering of a dozen of the ranking officers of the army now in Washington in the oflice of Secre- tary Garrison for an hour's confer- ence. Secretary Garrison explained that the purpose of the meeting was for enlightenment on the militia laws of the country. c ‘All human power is compound of time and patience.â€"Balzac.
