Favorable Action on the Dam.

The committees on Metropolitan Affairs and Harbors and Public Lands in joint session, voted yesterday morning to report the bill appointing a special commission to investigate and report upon the advisability of a dam across the Charles River near Craigie Bridge. The report is practically the same as the original petition presented to the committees March 29, the only change being that Governor Crane is to appoint the commissioners. The appointments will be made as soon as possible, and a report presented to the General Court early in 1902.
