To widen nnd Deepen the Delaware
EWaterway for Deep-draught Vessels.
1t is said that on Tuesday United
States Senator Higgins, Professor Haupt
of the University and Thomas Martindale
of Philadelphia made tour of investiga-
ton for the purpose Of ascertain
ing the present condition OF the
Delaware and Chesapeake canal
with very extensive improvements in
view They found that the canal could
be deepsned and widened in such way
chat it would permit the sailing of the
largest ocean steamers. thereby saving
aadetour from Philadelphia to Baltimore
alone of 1876 miles. and about eighteen
hours time
1t is proposed to deepen the canal to %
feet. with surface width Of 100 feet,
excepting the deep cut which is three
and q half miles long aud 16 feet
deep. This won be narrowed TO l2O
feet There would be tidal locks at each
end. which would dispense with the lift
/ locks. At the deep cut there were q
| great many difficulties TO overcome on ac-
count of the poor land.
"rhe probable cost Of the work, said
/ Mr.. Martindale, would be about
/ 81. 600 600. The natural increase of
traffic would pay such large returns that
this would soon be realized. The govern.
ment no doubt viii make an appropria
tion for the work to begin on, and wher
once commenced would be finished in
about two years. There is ,
great deal Of swamp land through there
that could be reclaimed by the mud anC
soil from the bottom of the canal The worl
will be comparatively easy, with the eX
ception of the work on the deep cut
Senator Higgins and ! both think tn
plan will be carried out successfully, an'
active preparations to that end vii begii
| at once.
