A GREAT SHIP CANAL
THE DITCH FROM BRUNSeUTTEl TO

In Case of War and Will Save Macy
Lives and Much Time.
According to all predictions, the ma
val display to take place at Kiel, Ger,
many, on June 10, in celebration of the
opening Of the Baltic canal, will be
more imposing than any previous one of
modern times, greatly exceeding in mag
nificence even the naval parade in the
harbor Of New York in October, 1892.
AS the weeks pass the programme grows
longer and more elaborate, and it now
seems probable that several royal per-
sonages will be present along with the
ships. The empress of Germany and the
four eldest sons Of the imperial young
ruler Of the house of Hohenzollern will
accompany him, and the kings Of Sax

ern terminus is at Holteneau, near Kiel,
on an arm Of the Baltic, and between
these two points it crosses Kuden lake,
and follows from Rendsburg the course Of
the old Elder canal. At each end there
Is q tide lock, and the two are among the
greatest in the world, the dimensions
being: Length, 500 feet width, 50 feet
depth ON the sill, 80 feet. These two
locks are the only ones it has been nee
easary to erect, and these have been built
solely because Of the varying tide levels
and the strong current Of the Elbe.
The lock gates at the Baltic end Of tn

NAP OF THE CANAL.

Ony and Wurttemberg and the regent of
Bavaria, Prince Luitpold, representing
crazy King Otto, will also be on hand,
but how many other potentates will at
tend has not yet t%ranspired. There was
some question for a time about the at
tendance Of the three dignitaries named,
differences having arisen regarding prec-
edence, but the kings of Saxony and
Wurttemberg have agreed to give way to
Otto's representative, and he will be
ranked next the emperor throughout the
ceremonies. The United States will send
four Of its modern vessels, the New
York, the Columbia, the San Francisco
and the Marblehead. Germany, of
course, will make a fine showing, and
every other nation that makes any pre-
tentions whatever as a naval power will
send as many ships as possible.
The Baltic canal is destined to prove
Of great importance in the commercial
progress Of the nations of Europe. For
five centuries it has been talked of, for
the navigation Of the Skager Rack, past
the Skaw or northernmost point of Den
mark, and through the Cattegat, to the
Baltic from the North sea, has always
been counted on. O. the most difficult,
dangerous voyages h,.,wn' Inc con-
struction Of such a canal as I. leone NO"
approaching completion, it has oeeh
pointed out, would do away with the
necessity for using this dangerous route
to any extent and besides would great
~ shorten the distance to be sailed and
the time to be occupied in the passage.
The following table will show the ma
terial advantages to be gained by the
Baltic canals

LOCK GATEa AT HoLTENEAU.

terprises. About Z, 900 persons were con-
tinually employed from beginning to
end. The canal crosses four lines of rail
road and five high roads. There are two
fixed bridges, each 1870 feet above the
surface Of the water, and two swing
bridges, and at several points ferries have
been established.
Denmark processes not to fear the ef-
feet Of the canal upon her commerce,
but it Is generally agreed that there is
real danger to her capital, Copenhagen,
the metropolis Of the Baltic. The ton
mage Of the ships that have annually
passed through the narrow, tortuous
channels lying between the North sea
and the Baltic aggregates more than
30, 900, 900, and there has been an annu-
al average Of 200 wrecks there, SO that
it is not likely that a ton Of Baltic
freight will now be transported via Co
penhagen that can conveniently pass
through the canal. This is the more
probable since the table Of delays given
in the first part Of this article does not
| show the average detention to sailing
| vessels by any means. In case Of adverse
| winds they have sometimes been obliged
to lie to for days and even weeks, and
though there will be canal tolls for sail.
ing vessels which traverse the canal to
pay besides towing fees, these will not
aggregate, all told, a great enough ex'
pense, as a rule, to offset the dangers
and delays Of the old route.
That Copenhagen is alive to the men
ace to her commercial supremacy is evi
dent from the fact that she has beer
spending money freely in the construc
tions Of docks, lighthouses, etc., and ha
been made q free port.
It is more than likely, too, that tn
new canal will have some influence upo'

ut low tide will cause o movement of
tho water in the canal, and this will
have a tendency to keep it sweet and
clear. The locks are of the most massive
masonry, after the fashion of all old world
stonework, and like the breakwaters
now building at each end to protect the
mouths of the canal are made of ma
terial from the famous quarries neal
Niessen, Saxony. / have said that there
are no locks excepting those at the ter
minal points, and this is virtually true,
50 far as the course of the canal itself
Is concerned, but in the valley Of the
lower Elder there are two locks con-
Meeting the canal with that stream.
The digging of the canal has occupied
about eight years, n of the last per-
formances of the venerable Emperor
William I, grandfather of the present
ruler, having been to inaugurate the
work on June |, 1887. 1t will be inter
esting to know that the cost Of the en-
terprise has been kept we'll within the
limit Of the original estimate, $40, OOO,-
600. In this there is a %perceptible differ
ence from the history of some public
works in the new world, but not more
pronounced than is observable in COM
pairing the Baltic with the Manchester
ship canal, which was to cost not more
than $50, 600, 900, but really cost about
$50, 0O0, 900, despite the fact that it is
not much more than half as long as the
Baltic canal. Singularly enough, most of
the contractors On the latter have been
Dutch and not German.
In every sense of the word the chan
mel that has been followed ont between
Kiel and Brunsbuttel is a ship canal.
Its surface width is 217 feet, its width
at the bottom SO feet and its depth there
30 feet. At the sides there is q depth Of
10 feet, which will be ample for most
Of the Baltic steamers, few of which
draw more than Is feet, to pass each
other with freedom. First class seago-
ing and fighting ships cannot pass, how
ever, save at the seven especially con-
structed "sidings" built for the purpose.
The width and depth of the channel are
such that ships may navigate its waters
at the rate of five knots an hour and in
order to enable them to use it by night
as we'll al by day, the canal will be
lighted by electricity from end to end.
In laying out the canals course the
engineers tried, Of course, to keep as
near an air line as possible, but there
are in all % curves, though none is of
short radius. Owing to the comparative
~ level nature of the territory trav-
ersed, no great engineering difficulties
were encountered, though at Nickel
moor, near Rendsburg, where there is a
soft DOGGY swamp, through which it
seemed almost impossible to cut a chan
mel, it was found necessary to fill the part
to be dug with sand, brought from 9th
er parts of the work before excavating.
At Grunthal there is a deep cut, but the
worh there did not compare with the
deep cut york in many other great en-
