The idea of making Paris eeaport-in

The idea of making Paris seaport-in
other words, of rendering the Seine navi-
gable for seagoing vessels-is again coming
to the surface. The river at Paris is only
between sixty and seventy feet above the
level of the ocean, and q distance in q
straight line of 100 miles, although, follow
ing the course of the stream, 1t is 2l0
miles. The problem is how to lessen the
latter number and made greater depth of
water. 1t appears that to dredge out seven
feet would need an expenditure OF l3,OOO,-
would require IL 200, 900 more. 1t is stated,
moreover, that the average size Of French
vessels is under 300 tons. The Minister of
Public Works and the project of the Seine
made an exploring expedition the other day
to Rouen, and the journey is to be re- re.
peated by the municipal council. VI
course no decision has been arrived at, but
the lower estimate will probably be
adopted,
