Jliw PITTSBURGH I i I I WILL RESIGN HUNTINGTON CANAL ENTHUSIASTS NOT WORRIED BY NEW DEVELOPMENTS. JUDGE COOK SANGUINE Says no Matter Where Canal Goes All Will Profit Jealousy Is Hinted. South Bend men, reprejentlng eome of the bulk of the influence and wealth of that city, went to Chicago Thursday to lay before the Chicago Association of Commerce the claims of South Bend for the northern route of the canal. Huntington canal enthusiasts, howev. er, were not worried, over this development.

They say that Souih Bend has every right to be heird, and that the board of engineers ought to take in'o tonslderatlon everything that can be said for either route. The feeling is 1 that Chicago if it Is ever used in the interest of any route, will favor that which passed through Hunt ington. A dkHTBtch sent out Thursday night from South Bend say? that the members of the committee to Chicago in eluded Richard Elbel. J. D.

Oliver, J. C. Birdsell. A. R.

The dispatch also says that Colonel W. V. Judson. a member of the army board of enslnet rs maping out the route, was present at the Chicago meeting, and declares that Fort Wayne Is "apparently antagonistic to the Interests of South Bend." So far as has been learned In Huntington. Fort Wayne la not antagonistic to South Bend, but is for the canal whether it goes by the north oc the south route' Just as Huntington favorable to the canal no matter wnat route Is selected.

Judge S. E. Cook, president of the Huntington Peep Waterway aspocla tlon, on reading the South Bend dls patch, "South Bend has a right to present Its claims for the northern route. lluntlngtqn never has taken that Fort of action, leaving such matters entire ly In the hands of the army board.

"The southern route gives Chicago the terminal.
