Admiral Camara's maneuvers about
the Suez canal reawakens interest in
the canal-one of the greatest engi-
neering feats in the history of the
world.
NJ. Ferdinand Lessops was the orig
inator and builder of the canal. His
genius, his perseverance and his faith
made IT n success in the face OF SEEM
ING impossibilities. The engineering
commission was signed at Cairo.
Egypt. Nov. 10, 1854. The work was
commenced in November. 1860. The
canal extends from Port Said. on
the Mediterranean, to Suez, on the
Red sea. The whole length of the
navigation is IS geographical miles.
Of the whole distance sc miles are ac-
tually canal. formed by cutting. II
miles are made by dredge through
the lakes, and eight miles re-
quired no work. The canal has
Il navigable depth of 20 feet for
width of a. feet at the bot
tom, and has width at the top vary
ing according to the character of the
cuttings; but in 1896 arrangements
were made with Egypt for widening
the waterway. For five or six miles
there is passing place to enable
large vessels to moor for the night.
or to bring up to allow others to pass.
All movements of vessels through
the canal are regulated by telegraph
from Port Said, Ismailia or Suez. lust
as trains in the United Stated are ham
died by the train dispatcher.
The cost of the whole enterprise
was over s105, 900, 900. The canal
may be regarded as highway for
steamers 400 feet in length and 30 feet
beam. a vessel is considered FORUM
ate that passes through the canal
within IS hours. In 1875 the British
government purchased 1866 shares
from the khedive of Egypt at the
price of nearly $40. 900. 600.
The canal is now owned principally
by the English and French. The
grand opening of the canal took place
Nov. II, 1869. The canal is now prac-
ticallv conducted by joint commits
sian, of which England, France and
Egypt are the leaders.
