Owing to a want of funds the c mipany were unable to complete the development, and the work has been at a standstill for the past two years. This condition, of cmrse, was the direct result of the m mey sti'ingency which seriously affected many anuthe r industry as well throughout Canada, but the effects of which have now practically passed away. Ou S4turd^y last a pirty of eight Owcu Sound gei.t'einen, consisting of Messrs. \V. P. Telford, Christ ipher .J . Eaton, J. M. Kilhiiuni, D. M. Butchart, Honice B. Siniih, ThomiLs L. Dates, J. R. Wain- wr'ght and R. McDowell, visited the falls to persimally inspect the work that had beend 'ne,andtogainanideaof the[iossibil- ities with a view lo investing money ii> the sjheuie in order to uet it goiu,'. The , company is .*iid to have already tpent | $100,000 on the development, and another $2(K),(X)0 is needed. 1 he property as ic st^inds to-diy is a j v.iluable one and it wou'd be a great pi'y I to leave it uncompleted wheu the rite at i which power can be Soil, and the advan- | tags accruing therefrom to the industries , of the county, are taken into considere- j ti(jn. The gentlemen who visited the works 1 on Saturday were very favorab'y imprcs j sed and believe that liltle dithculty will I be experienced iii securing sufficient funds ; to cniplete the constructior.. Owen . Stmnd is especially interested in the, scheme, as it could aHsorb a large prcipor- tion of the power ia its b>cal iiidustiiea and at a much lower rate than the present cost. Mr. \Y. P. Taford. e.x-M.P, is a prime mover in this rejuvenatioB, and does not think any dithculty will be experienced in securingsutHcient funds to compltte the development.
