THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
It-PreIiminary Report of
Canal Commission.

New York. Dec. 24.-The preliminary
report of the Nicaragua canal commits
sion, consisting of Gen. Haines, Adj
miral Walker and Prof. Haupt, has
been compiled and will be read before
the senate committee either during the
Christmas recess of congress or immedi-
ately afterward.
This report will give many details of
construction in regard to the proposed
route, and will give close figure on the
cost of the entire undertaking, as far
as human ingenuity can foresee.
A summary of these costs has been
made out lin sections.
A total of lis 100000 cubic yards Of
all kinds of excavation will be needed
to the harbor at Brito, and. allowing
100000 cubic yards, for dredging at
TIE western division, the total esti-
mate will come to nearly 1875 100000 Gu
bic yards, exclusive of all dams and en-
bankments. 1t will be seen that $685..
100000 will be conservative estimate
Of the entire cost Of the canal, and this
almost agrees with that of Gen. w.
Ludlow's report of 1896.
