The great drainage canal at Chicago
is conceded to be one Of the greatest
works Of constructive engineering
which have been attempted in this CEN
tury. Its progress has been watched
with keen interest by sanitarians, On.
gineers interested in the novel and ct.
fective machines for removing earth
and rock employed In Its construction,
and by those who saw in this great
sewer a menace to the shipping inter.
ests Of the great lakes. Charles 8. Hill,
associate editor Of Engineering News,
has prepared a full history Of the
causes which led to the undertaking Of
the work, description of the machin-
cry and methods made use Of. and very
full tables Of the prices and costs OF
every part Of the work, taken from the
actual records Of the contractors and
engineers. Tho book is really a reprint
Of articles which have appeared In the
Engineering News during the year
past, but with numerous additions and
revislons. which bring 1t up to date
and thus complete q full and accurate
account Of the enterprise. This 10 prac-
tically the only form in which 80 much
explicit and Trustworthy information
can be obtained. There are over 100
maps and illustrations showing the de-
vices and plans for executing tho work;
q chapter on "Administration" shows
the workings Of the executive system
by which the 5000 or 1900 were con-
tr0llod, housed and fed. while the con-
Guiding chapter sums up the salient
features Of the herculean task, which
was, Al Mr.. Hill remarks. q problem
Of how to do work rather than Of what
work to do. In the appendix the Ques-
lions bearing on the effect Of the work
ON tho level Of the great lakes are fully
discussed. reports Of United States en-
ginoeEs, ETC., being included.
