Chicago. Jan. 3.-Wdter has been turn
ed into the $33 ,0O0, 900 drainage canal and
BEGAN to flow toward Lockport, where 1t
will fall into Desplaines river and thence
through the Illinois and Mississippi rivers
to the gulf. What is termed by canal en-
eineers the collateral channel has been Tor
some time completed from the Chicago
river in the southwestern part OF the clty
to within ID feet OF the main channel ot
the canal.
\ l5.foot wall of earth, with two sluire
gates behind il, has been all that kept
the Chicago river and Lake Michigan out
OF the canal. When the water began TO
back up against the sluice gates the tim
bels were knocked away, and the first
water from the Chicago river ran into
the canal. Engineers OF the sanitary dis
trict have cut the channel 10 carry 100000
cubic feet a minute into the empty canal.
This would be like the bursting OF i rcser-
Voir and would tear away every bridge
! over the canal and wreck the controlling
works at Lockport. Therefore the water
will be turned in gradually. Probably j
week with elapse before the canal Is tull
OF water and is carrying away the sewage
1 that now flows into the Chicago river.
| An occasion that might have been one
of the most memorable i'll the eyentful his
! tory OF Chicago was allowed to pass by
unimprovcd because the trustees OF The
sanitary district We're intent on their own
great aim-the opening OF the canal. Aside
from the engineers and trustees and board
there were less than dozen spectators
present.
