PARR SHOAILS CASE TO BE WITHDRAWN War Department. Issues Instructions. Formalities Pending. Washington, Aug. 0.-Nothing more will be done with regard to the re noval of .Parr 'Shoals dam. Some time ago when it became known that instructions had been sent from the department of Justice at Washington to IDistrict Attorney Fran Dis H. Weston at Columbia to insti tute proceedings for the removal of Parr Shoals dam, those interested in preserving the dam took the matter ilp with Washington in the hope that iction might be deferred. if not entire ly abandoned, looking to the dam's re noval. Certain influential citizens of "olumbia came .to Vashington and saw officials of both the department Df Justice and the war department re Ltarding the matter and one of thc most interested of all in the (amii11 preservation was Senator Dial. Re iently Assistant Attorney General Herron of the department of justiet said that he had asked the war depart Iment for a rehearing. Today Sienator Dial announced that the reteariny wotild be held, and uipon the mattet being followed l) an( more inforna tion being secured, it was ascertainei that it .is highly improbable that this will be (lone, inasmuch as the war de. partient has instructed the depart ment of Justice to abandon the entire matter and to inform District Attorney We.ston to this effect. This mean that there will be no court case, that Parr Shoals will not lie demolished atld thlat tle entire matter Is now o soon will be at an ond, all contenp lat(I proceedings being withdrawn aI son as the legal formalities connected with v the matter cln hv gole througl w itI.
