A COSTLY PRUssIAN CANAL.

The Elbe-Trave canal, which is to
follow the general line of the five hun
dred year old Stecknitz canal, will
connect Lubbock with Lauenberg on
the Elbe. The old canal was sixty
miles long with seventeen locks, the
highest being forty feet above the lev
ell of the Elbe. It's average breadth
was only forty feet with couple of
feet depth of water. The new canal
will be straighter and shorter by just
about twenty miles; it will have bot
tom width of 20 feet and top width
of 100 feet, with 6H feet depth, or
deeper, if the river is deepened. The
locks will be reduced to seven in num-
Der, and their maximum dimensions
will be $50 feet long, 35 feet wide, 7
feet deep, admitting vessels of about
500 tons. The estimated cost of the
new canal is $6,75O,OOO, of which sum
the city of Lubbock will provide about
$5,00O,000 and the Prussian govern
ment the remainder.
