S pokane , W hs I i , Jan. 18—With their
heart filled with sorrow over her tragic
death, the divorced parents ol Louise
Hurris, a victim oí the Clallam wreck,
are apparently becoming reconciled, mid
their manv friends in Spokane predict
that the resumption of their oh I rela
tions as husband and wile is not far dis­
tant.
Several years ago, William Harris and
h»s wife, ('arrie, agreed they could no
longer live together. They were wealthy
and a division of property was made,
the wile taking most of the real estate
and the husband retaining mining stock
of much value. Mrs. Harris has since
built the Victoria Hotel, a handsome
hostelry in Spokane, and has lived here,
while Mr. Harris has spent his time in
various cities of the Northwest. Louise,
their only daughter, lived with her
mother when in Spokane. Two years
ago Harris sought to have the old
<livorce case reo|'ened, alleging that he
did not get a fair division of property.
A bitter legal fight followed and his
wife won.
When Louise was drowned in the Clal
lam lifeboat, both parents went to the
Sound to accompany the remains to
Spokane for interment. Husband and
va ife did not speak to each other, and
friends had to make mutual arrange
ments. But since the funeral Mr. Harris
and his former wile have frequently
dined together and are so often seen in
each other's company that a complete
rcconcilliation is looked for.

L. EDDY,
BEHIND 0« ARMY REGISTER.
The war department is six months
behind in its annual publication
known as the Army Register,
Is due to the confusion which
arisen in the preparation of
lineal and relative lists of army of­
ficers and the difficulty in determin­
ing the position of the numerous ap­
pointees to the army during the last
is months. It was expected that
Secretary Root would give his ap­
proval to the lists this week, but ut
the last moment it was d »covered
that signal corps officers were pro­
testing against the construction of a
law which placed them at the foot of
the relative list, regardless of the
fact that most of them were entitled
to positions much higher in the list
by reason of prior service in the vol-
unteers.
This question does not affect the
promotion of the officers of the sig-
n i corps, but it has an importance
in giving them precedence over lieu­
tenants of the artillery, cavalry and
infantry, and govern their seniority
on courts of inquiry and courts-mar­
tial.
More important still, however, is
the question of quarters. The high­
est ranking officer at a post has the
selection of the place where he lives
I and the choosing of a habitation is
governed by the position of an officer
on the relative list. For this reason
the signal corps men are anxious
that they shall not be slighted, and
through Gen. Greely, chief signal of­
ficer, they have sent an appeal to
Secretary Root that their prior serv­
ice shall not be entirely ignored.
The protest has served to delay ap­
proval of the completed lists and to
postpone further publication of the
annual register.

A canal is being projected by well-
known men of Whiteside county. Ill.,
to run along the Illinois banks of the
Mississippi river from Fulton to the
three cities of Moline, Rock Island
and Davenport to avoid the danger­
ous rapids in the Mississippi above
Rock Island and also to shorten the
distance by water from Clinton to
Davenport, la., by about 70 miles.
The canal as projected would leave
the Mississippi at Fulton, run east 17
miles to Rock river, near Lyndon, and
then south to the Hennepin canal,
which was constructed three years
ago and enters the Mississippi near
Milan. The new waterway would vir­
tually be a changing of the course
of the Mississippi, making it flow
more nearly straight south, shorten­
ing distances at least 100 miles be­
tween large cities on the river and
avoiding the dangers to navigators at
Rock Island, where the United States
has spent thousands of dollars.
Engineers who have examined and
surveyed the route declare it feasi­
ble and say that when completed the
canal will be one of the great inland
waterways of the middle west and
mark an epoch in the revival of traffic
from St. Paul to Peoria and points on
the Illinois river by making them ac­
cessible through the Hennepin canal.
ITALY SEEKS OUR COAL.
la
Italy may be the next European
country to try American coal as a sub­
stitute for the English product. Sig­
nor Hugo Pizeoti, United State« con­
sul at Turin. Italy, who is now in thia
country, is said to be negotiating for
the delivery of 4,000,000 tons of bi-
tumin-ou» coal, for export to Italy.
It probably will come from Alabama,
although the Cape Breton coal also
has been considered by him.
Prominent coal dealers in New York
city say they fail to aee any margin
of profit in such a transaction They
cla-im that so long as our present pros­
perity continues the demand for coal
in this country will equal the supply,
thus keeping the price of coal up to a
point where it would not be possible
to compete with British coal even
with the export tariff added on
It was stated recently that the Ital­
ian government had entered negotia­
tions for the purchase of a large tract
of bituminous cos I land in West Vir­
ginia. The report never has been con­
firmed officially, however.
MARCONI’S MACHINES.
One of the most interesting elec­
trical tests ever mads in Canada wax
performed at
the workshops of
Thompson «ft Co.. Montreal, which firm
has built the dynamos and the two big
transformers for the Marconi station.
The»« are the highest voltage trans­
formers ever constructed in this coun­
try. Aside from a few long-distance
electrical systems in the western por­
tion of tbe United States no occasion
fiur the use of such powerful machines
has arisen anywhere.
The test was a weird performance.
The transformer, which contains over
>0 miles of wire, was built to have ap­
proximately a capacity for increasing
the voltage of an electric current hav­
ing a voltage of 2.000 and amperage
of 20 to a current with a voltage of
40.000 with an amperage of one. U hen
