CANAL TO CROSS MICHIGAN.
Capitalists Said to BE Considering n
Big Western Project.
(By Associated Press.)

VIZ
CHICAGO, Feb. IA stupendous
canal project. which, If successful, will
entirely revolutionize the traffic OF the
great lakes, is said to be in contemp!a-
ton by a number OF capitalists in Chi
cago, New York. Boston and London.
The proposed canal is designed to rem
der unnecessary the present long route
between Eastern and Northwestern
points through the Straits of Mackinaw.
Lake Huron, St. Clair River and lake.
and thence down the Detroit River to
AXE Erie.
The plan said to be under contempla-
ton is TO construct a canal directly
across Michigan from the western shore
to either Detroit or Toledo. O. Capt.
talists are said to stand ready to back
the project to the extent of $50, 900, 90.
and 1t is also said that English capital
lists interested in the Canadian Pacific
road have shown a disposition to rem
der financial aid.
preliminary surveys OF several propose
routes have been made. and the feast.
bility of the project has been vouchel
to tap Lake Michigan at a point near
Michigan city or New Buffalo. and to
canal directly eastward TO Toledo. An
other plan is to strike Lake Michigan at
northeasterly direction to Detroit. Either
OF these canals would be about $50 miles
long. and would save about 100 miles OF
lake travel.

promised substantial supprot are Nathan
