Close CALL. -What might have
been a fatal disaster occurred on Lake
Huron Saturday afternoon, just off
the Government breakwater. Thres
young men, Bert McDonald, Arthur
McLeanand Kenneth Boyd,. attempted
to reach the lake in a skiff In the face
of a northwest gale. Just as they
cleared the north pier a squall struck
them and capsized the boat, throwing
them • all into the water. Although
McDonald is agood sailor, they were
Powerless to right the boat, which,
with the encumbrance of ballast and
Clinging canvas, was hardly buoyant
enough to sustain the weight of three
men. Their signals of distress were
seen by eome sailors on shore, who im-
mediately proceeded to get a gasoline
launch and hurried to the tescue.
When taken aboard the adventurers
Were almost exhausted. •
Aacording to .a later dispatch they
are still soranping. The excavation
weak of the .G. T. 13d. has again been
suspended, throturb the intervention
ot the G. & G., with anotheranjunction.
After carefully going over the ground
it was mutually. agreed, by engineers
and officials of both companies, that
the G. T. R. should not excavate out-
side a line thirty feet aWay from' the
Goderich Elevator & Transit Co.'s new
elevator. This would still give the G.
T R. sufficient clearance for their ad-
ditional track and preseree the piling
and teestle work of the G. & 0-, directly
above. 'The G. 1'. R. tearn shovel
.was started in the new out ancl along
• the,division line: However, another
injunction was served Windier morn-
ing at the instigation of .the G. &
under the contention that the shovel
wee exeavating several inches outside
a the divisional line agreed upon. •
UNParearrne TRAcRS.;-lite war
between the rival railroads continues
merrily, and the prospects appear nt
presentee though the recent events
wilt result disastrously for the Guelph
•Goderieli Railway.- The Grand
Trunk Railway steam shovel has been
workiog steadily at the spot where it
Was placed after being released from
the temporary enelosure which the
Guelph & Gocierieh Railway erected
around it. The officials of the former
road claim that, they ere working on
their own property, making necessary
improvements for the better operation
of the read. -Incident. to the belaying
but of these ireeroveinents, however,
is the undermining of the tracks of 'the
rival railway and possibly the removal
of a portion of trestle work upon
whicle its ' tracks_ are berried. It is
claimed a portion of the trestle . is on
Grand Tem* property, and should
the steam shovel in making the .ex-
eavation come hit° contaet with the:
supports of the trestle much darhage
to the Guelph & Gocietich track may
result. It is estinnited that should the
Grand Trnnk Railway continue work
according to present plans the cost be
the rival road of constructing retain-
ing walls will be in the neighborhood
of $100,000. There is some talk of a
conterence in orderto settle the dif-
ferences 'atnirabiy and avoid the heavy
Txpense in which both roads will. be
Involved should the struggle continue.
Mr. M. K. Cowan, K. 0:, of the Grand
Trunk. RailwaY, legal department,
when spoken to in reference• to the
trouble intimated that the Grand
Trunk Railway were peacefully purste
ing their way, making same'verk.
necessary improvements on their own
property at their own expense.

MITST iiii TAROA.LizED, -The Town
ship of Colborne Win a peculiar medic
Atinent regarding ts G-oderich&ieuelp
Railway ctebentures. A. bonus of eieeS
was granted thereto, under a bydai
passed by the electors, and debenture
were issued accordingly. When ther
were offered for sale it was discovere
that in some way the words "each an
every year" had been accidental'
omitted from the by-lew, and no in
would buy the debentures, not eve
private individuals to whom they wer
pinsonally offered. How to rectif
the matter is. the oroblem, and mai
this is done tlui deeentures are vallie
less. Some ope euggests the salmis
seen of another Inautiv, but it is doubt
eta if it coultelee.earried. • -
Noa SRTTLED.-It is said that th
long-standing dispute between Col
borne and Goderich Townships, ave
the grant made . towards fixing the
Goderieh township hill, is as far away'
front settlement as ever. At a recen
meeting of Colbornee-Gotincil it was
deeided to pay over to Goderich town
ship the sum of $75, which that tovvn
shin had agreed to accept in full of its
legitimate Mann of $100. It was
'naturally thought that this would end
the matter, but under one pretext and
another the Reeve refused to sign the
order for the $75, and it is reported
that an effort will now be made to
' burk peyment altogether. If this be
true it is not creditable to the Town
ship, and we do not believe the people
of Colborne will approve of such a
thing. The honor of a Municipality
ie involved, and a paltry $75 is too
sata,11 a 511111 to stand in the way of the
township meeting its just obligations.
