NEW YoRK, July 26.
Francis A. Keifer, Of Paris, . French
engineer. and the accredited representative
OF . syndicate 81 Partisan bankers and
uho propose 10 build . ship
across the Isthmus Of Panama,
on Wednesday He said to . ..Tri-
bune" reporter last night that the object
Of his visit, 81 this time. was to interest
some American engineers and capitalists in
proposed undertaking. known as the
system, the engineer who claims
TO have originated it. Keifer said that
approval Of the Sebillot project
was all that was needed to induce French
capitalists to subscribe sufficient money to
build the road. 6ebiiiot proposed either
to build his ship railway from Aspinwail to
Panama. or . ship canal Of 80 kilometcrs
to the mountains, then . railway Of thirty
kilometers 10 another canal Of 10
to Panama. TIE rails arc to
Be laid about IL meters apart. and arc to
weigh coo kilograms 70 the meter. The
point on the line will b. IS meters.
About tide water, veasels up to steam
ships Of 10. 900 toni. will be transported over
this railroad in immense docks supported
BY wheels II inches thick. 1t il proposed
that tbess docks shall be run under water
70 receive the vessel. which will then be
securely held in an upright position in
them by . System OF arms or clams. Driy-
ing power will be placed in the docks
themselves, under the bulge Of the vessel,
AID will be applied directly to the wheels
under the dock. Keiifer claims that these
docks will b. capable Of 8 speed Of from
Is to IL kilometeys per hour, and that the
distance ran ha traworxo1 IN Apo
hours. The entire cost OF construction he
estimates 1t 250 .O00, 900 francs, while the
ship canal favored by De Lesseps will de-
mand . capital Of 1880. GOV. 600 francs.
He also says that the tariff on vessels pass
ing over this railway need not be higher
than half . dollar per ton. against 81 per
ton by canal. and u yield q fair percentage
on the capital. That while seven years
must elapse before the canal can he COM
pleted. the railway can be in operation At
the end of three. KeifEer said that per-
mission was granted by the Columbian
Government to SehiIlot in 1873. TO con-
struct such . ship railway across the
Isthmus.
