In times of peace this vast interior
Lake of Nicaragua offers safe harbor
large enough for all the nsvies of the
world +; but in case of need there are none
to dispute the right of the United States
to make of it stronghold, securing to
her navy \ cosling station and base of
supplies which the fertile country sur
rounding the lake makes practically in
exhaustible. The valve Of this safe re-
treat whence our ships can issue 10 east

The Nicaragua Canal Route.


The three great engineering difficulties
which the Nicaragua route presents are:
the recovery or making of the eastern
harbor; the Ochoa Dam where the canal
unites with the river; and the Great Di-
vide, which carries the canal over the
Cordilleras. BY means of the dam the
waters of the San Juan are raised to the
lake level, which in effect eliminates
the longest and most dangerous rapids
the Machuca-giving depth of thirty
four feet over them.
The cut OF the Great Divide attacks
the mountains at their very lowest de-
pression-one apparently made for the
purpose point where the spur is near
ly divided on both sides by the neighbor-
ing valleys.
The rock taken from this cut, which is
from one hundred and forty-one to three
hundred and twenty-eight feet in depth,
supplies the material for the dam, locks
and entertainments, to which it will be
carried directly on the railway, and for
which, otherwise. stone must be special
Iy quarried and brought at great ex pense.
; NJ. de Lesseps had to manufacture the
stone required for the retaining walls to
hold back. the shifting sands in the SueE
Canal cut. +
ON the Nicaragua line there are no
shifting sands to fill up the bitches as
fast as they are dredged; the engineer
finds the soil working hand in hand with
him for most of the excavations will be
; through tenacious clay, weighted and
stiffened with volcanic sand, which forms
a natural, impervious cement, hardening
like rock under the trouic sun.
The employment of six iocks-three at
each end-raises the canal to level with
the, lake, and gives to it the pronounced
advantage of clear one hundred and
Hfty-four miles stretch at the summit
level, which at high water mark 10 one
hundred and ten feet above the sea. Con-
Irasted to this, We find. the Erie Canal
has eeventy-two locks in its length of
three hundred and sixty-fve miles, to
carry it over an elevation of six hundred
and fifty-six feet. The Nicaragua locks
are grouped closely, as near the termini
as the topography OF the country will
permit; the third lock from the eastern
end is twelve miles and three-quarters
from the Atlantic, and the upper l,ck on
the Pacific coast is but two miles and a
half from Brito. Thus the canal is
boldly lifted above the perils of sudden
floods from torrential streams, and the
great lake, one hundred and ten miles
long by forty wide, guarantees an mex
hsustible supply of water, while it fur
nishes broad and hospitable expanse
for all the floods of heaven, which never
raise its waters more than two feet.
This beautiful fresh water lake the
largest between our Lake Michigan and
Lake Titicaca. in Peru, secures to the
Nicaragua Canal unique and enormous
advantage possessed by no other canal
in existance, or ever projected, and worth
millions to the country controlling it.
