sldersN that 500 100000 will be
nearer the mark. The actual line
Of the transit Is 18l 3 miles. OF
this distance 565 miles are navi-
gable lakes. The river navigation
BY slack water is set down at, 63.O2
miles, SO thatll9 5 miles, it is es-
timated, might be constructed for
an expenditure not much. exceed
ing nine million dollars. The Mic
aragua route ia the longest one
which has ever been contemplated
across the Isthmus. 1t has always
been An attractive one to geogra-
pliers and others partly because of
the long extent of the natural
water way, and partly because of
the salubrious climate and the
great natural resources Of the
contiguous country. Those who
have IN former times crossed the
Isthmus by that route, have never
forgotten the beauty of the scenery
aud the many other attractions for
the tourist. 1t would probably be
the most expensive route for
commerce. Sailing vessels would
have to be towed for the entire
distance of {18l miles; the large
number of locks also would greatly
protract the time of crossing. Ar
tiflciaI harbors would have to be
constructed both at Greytown and
Brito. But these, while costly,
would pfescnt no great engineering
diflicuIty.
The surveys for the Panama Tn-
ter-Oceanic Canal were made by
Commodore LuII in the year 1875.
The length OF the canal .reqpired on
this route would be ALI miles. The
summit levsled is 1875 feet, or a
little more than the summit by the
Nicaragua route. A still greater
number Of locks would be required,
and The cost l. estimated at about
sos, ,00o, ,00O. There would be the
advantages OF very short line,
fair harbor, absence of high winds,
and proximity to u railroad. The
disadvantages would be the large
amount OF rainfall, swamps, bad
climate, and Gains on the Bay of
Panama- The latter consideration |
would not, Of course affect steam
vessels. s1

Navy, on the line known rs A trato-
Napiri, which involves two tun-
neis, one ofthem exceeding eleven
miles In length, and another about
two-thIr,ls as long. The engineer
log difficulties would probably be
greater than those on any other
route proposed. The advantages |
would be short route and the alb
sence OF many locks. The differ |
ence IN the distance between the
ports OF New York and San Fran
cIsco by the Nicaragua route
would be $500 miles less than
By way Of the Straits Of Magellan.
