A ROUNDABOUT STATEMENT AS TO THE GOV
ERNMENT COMMISSIONS REPORT.

A ROUNDABOUT STATEMENT AS TO THE GOV
ERNMENT COMMISSIONS REPORT.
Cincinnati. July ia special dispatch from Grey
town Nicaragua says that favorable report on
the Nicaragua Canal Will be made by the United
States Government Commission which has been
IN the country for some weeks. and has carefully
examined the proposed canal route and the
minal harbors on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
The Commissioners now at work upon their
report when will be Of an exhaustive character.
They will state their unanimous conclusion that the
Colorado bar which has caused much trouble
a, the entrance to Greytown harbor. can be par
tally removed by dredging. and that a permanent
openng through 1t can be maintained by building
and maintaining a pi,ing to the southwark of the
harbor so as to break the ocean current which
washes up the sand on the bar.
A slight change In the proposed route of the canal
will be recommended owing to a belief on the part
of The commissioners that several serious obstacles
exist on the route heretofore laid down.
Thc commissioners think that the work OF con-
structng the canal can be completed In six or
seven years but that the total cost will con-
siderabiy exceed the limit set by the projectors
and that $40 100000 will not be an excessive figure:
The Commission. II is said. will crticise the
former management OF the canal enterprise The
officais are the cruiser Montgomery. due at Key
West
