I H27 I issue ClIICACO ATi:i SKTTI.KMKNT It is said that there is prospect of a ieaeel'ul setllement of the dispute lietweeii Chicago and Croat Lakes states over water diveision. The Mississippi flood is credited with changing Chicago sentiment. Whatever may have lieen the responsibility of Chicago for contributing to that flood, by pouring part of the Great Lakes into the upper .Mississippi, the reasonable business men of Chicago 'do not want to have any such ac cusations brought against them hereafter. They want to do what they can to alleviate flood dangers, and they realize that it will do Chicago no good to have the states along the lower Mississippi blaming it for future deluges. Chicago citizens ale glowing sensitive, loo, about crit icism from Wisconsin, .Michigan, Indiana, Ohio ami Canada, which accuses them of lowering lake levels, hampering lake navigation and bringing seiious loss upon property owners all ;aicund the lakes by making haibois shallow, leaving docks .stranded, ruining beaches, e tc. Chicago, thi'icl'iiie, is said to be in a mood to compromise, no matter what may be the decision of Special Master Charles K. Hughes, now icpiescnting the I'nited Stales su preme court in healing the suit (nought against the Chicago Sanitary District liy seveial neighboring stales. The complaining states themselves may l- inclined to compromise. It is believed that none of them will object lo whatever water Chicago may need for a barge canal from Lake Michigan to the Mississippi, M.ir to whatever she needs temporarily for dunnage pin poses, if she pmceeds to put in an adequate system of sewage disposal. Such a settlement would le.piiie action by congress, but that could doubtless be accomplished. There still remains Canada' to deal with. Put Canada, too, would probably lis ten to any fab and roasi t able piopo.,al, inasmuch s tht country itself witlulrws consideiable water from the upper lakes to operate ship canals.
