lake Michigan and the Mississippi River

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-Water was turned
into Chicago's great new drainage
canal at 0 yesterday morning. At the
hour mentioned the Is foot wall OF
earth, separating the collateral chan.
mel from the canal, a small portion OF
which was removed during the night,
was completely cut away by the steam
dredge and the water began flowing
into the channel, which forms the
connecting link to carry a portion OF
the waters of Lake Michigan into the
Mississippi river. The primary object
of this great work, which has cost S33,-
600, 900, was to dispose of Chicago's
sewage, which empties into the Chica-
go river and has been flowing partly
into the Illinois and Michigan canal,
partly into the lake, communicating
the source Of water supply. At the
same time its ultimate use as a ship
canal connecting the great lakes and
the Gulf of Mexico is kept in view.
As a mere drainage canal It need not
have cost over sl2 1000, 900. The canal
when in full operation will carry 5000
cubic feet of water per minute. which,
it is thought, will SO dilute the sewage
as to render it innocuous. 1t will
probably take week to fill the chan.
nol. The project has been a little
over seven years in the course Of
construction.

BERLIN, Jan. 5.-The imperial mail
steamer General has been detained at
Alden, which is occupied by the British
troops, with the object of searching
the cargo. The General Is owned by
the German East African line, the
owners of the Blu ndesrath, recently
captured by the British off Delagoa
bay. Although the manifests of the
steamer show no war material on
board, she was compelled to discharge
her cargo.
BERLIN, Jan. 5-The seizure of the

considerably aggravated the situation
here, and the indignation against
England is intensified. The govern

Boer Intrenchments stretch Away for
Miles at All Points.
LONDON, Jan. SIT is fully expected
that next week will see a heavy battle
on the Tugela river, which is now the
real pivot Of the campaign. The Beers
appear to be working necessarily with
shovel and pick. Lord Methuen's cav
airy scouting has developed the fact
that the Boer intrenchments extend
some forty miles, far overlapping the
British positions and making flank
movements extremely difficult. Min
tary analysis affirms that the Boer
trenches confronting General Butler
stretch awav some seventeen miles
and that work on them is pushed I'M
remittingly. While the advance is de-
layed, flank movements are rendered
most difficult, because long marches
are not done with celebrity, and it is
hard to time an attack with certainty.
The extent of the Dutch rising may
now be measured by taking line
from Prieska on the west to Herchel
or Barkley on the east. On the whole
of this line, except at points actually
occupied by the British, the population
seems for the most part hostile.

"open Door" Policy with China Good
for United States.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-Secretary
Wilson, in an interview, emphasized
the great commercial significance of
an "open door" concert of powers re-
specting China. Responding to an in
terview he said that but for this ae-
ton the United States would have
been shut out from trade advantages
in any province which other nations
might see fit to take advantage of.
He said; Anything produced in the
United States will now permanently
find its way into all parts Of the ce-
lestial empire. Our trade relations
there in the future are secured. Not
of the least importance Is the fact
that the permancncy of the cotton
market in China is secured. The trade
in cotton goods has been very heavy
in Manchuria and other northern
provinces. Our interests generally,
our dairy, poultry and other products
from the farms of the United States,
now have, an assurance of permanent
markets in all the provinces through
out the Chinese empire where such
things are in demand and this demand
Is growing and will continue to grow.

monteto's Defense Tor the Loss OF His
Fleet at Manila.
CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-The Chicago Tri-
bune prints the text of the defense Of
Montejo before the Spanish court mar
tial, when he was tried for the loss of
his fleet at Manila last fall. The adj
miral contrasts his equipment with
that of Dewey and says:
admiral Dewey knew exactly the
weight of the most powerful projectile
of our ships, and by a simple mathe-
NAUTICAL calculation he arrived at the
distance he could fight at without him
self receiving any harm, Thus he
could fight at a distance of 5000 or
1900 feet with absolute impunity.
The situation therefore was just this:
We were vulnerable to all projectiles
of the enemy and this the enemy well
knew. while he got out of reach all the
while"
Admiral Montejo adds: "In order to
give an idea of our miserable situa-
ton, may mention that we had only
fourteen torpedoes for the defense of
5000 feet of space, and that the cable
which we obtained in Hong Kong was
only long enough for five torpedoes
and therefore only five torpedoes
could be placed"
