ON FIGURES AT ALBANY
UNTIL FEBRUARY Is, BUT WILL
BE MOST COMPLETE.

Albany, Nov. "a (SpeciaD.-State Engineer Bond
he's a force OF eighty engineers at work in the De
Gran Building. IN this city. figuring out the cost Of
a barge canal under the survey OF the line of the
Erie Canal which has just been made with 100000
appropriated by the last Legislature but 1t is not
believed that this work be completed before
February l. and possibly not before the 18th of
that month. It is not known yet whether the barge
canal will $50 oOoO coo $500000O even SOO-
OooOo the statistics of the survey not yet having
been grouped together to enable the State
Engineer to make any such estimate.
An important part of the work of the State En-

ing into canal the Mohawk River from Little
Falls to Cohoes. Engineers have made surveys
and borings therefor all along the line Of the
Mohawk River. new line for the Erie Canal
also has been surveyed between Rome and Oneida
Lake. one from Oneida Lake to Three River Point
near Syracuse and surveys have also been made
along the Oswego River to ascertain the cost OF
building a larger canal from Syracuse to Oswego.
Another survey covered the land between Lock-
port and Lake Ontario. the thought being to have
canal boats enter Lake Ontario just north of Lock-
port. and thence go by that lake to Oswego, and
The field work of the several surveying parties
which was begun last spring completed early
IN September and then the engineers were put TO
work making the computations the cost of
the work. 1t is already apparent that the Erie
Canal will be greatly changed If barge canal is
constructed. The bridges locks and embankments

The question OF obtaining water for the barge
canal OF course. Is a serious one, and it is sus-
pected there may be need of impounding the water
o. some OF the tributaries Of the Mohawk. such
plan would be TO create reservoirs the head of
these creeks and impound water since these creeks
