FAVORS NCARAGUAN.
The Canal Commission Makes its
Report to Congress.
GOES INTO DETAILS.
While the Nicarayuan Route Is Longer
1t Can De Constructed In Less
Time and Less Expense
Than the Panama.

Washington, Dec. 5.-Report Of the
isthmian canal commission has been
sent to congress. The commission IA
an estimate Of $1S9,S64 ,o62, as the to-
tai cost of construction OF the canal
through Nicaragua The estimated
cost of the Panama route Is $144, 234.-
1853. but the report says t would cost
500. 141 900 to obtain the Panama
concession. The commission value
the work done on the Panama route
at 100000 900.
The report says the Panama route Is
favorable as a sea level cana! while
the Nicaragua route must be by
locks. but Lake Nicaragua will fur
for the canal. The Nicaragua route
has no natural harbors at either end,
but satisfactory harbors may be con-
structed Harbors already exist at
each end of the Panama route, but
considerable work must be done at
the entrance CT the harbor on the AZ
lantic side.
With an adequate force and plant
the commission estimate the Nicara-
guam canal can be completed in six
years. exclusive of two years for pre-
paration. Ten years, it is estimated,
anna. The total length of the Nicara
qua route is 1S3. Sc miles and Pan
ANA route 80 CO miles
The estimated cost OF operating and
maintaining the Nicaraguan canal
annually is S1-350.Oc3 greater than
that Of the Panama canal. The esti-
mated time for Z deep draught vessel
to pass through the Panama canal IS
u hours and through the Nicaraguan
canal is 80 hours. The Nicara gua
route. the report says. is more ad-
vantageous for commerce, save that
America. For the gulf ports adyan-
tage is two days. and for most OF the
ports on the Atlantic and Pacific one
day of the Nicaragua route is said TO
be better for sailing vessels on &c
count OF favorins winds. The hyGie-
mic conditions also favor Nicaragua.

strange man was noticed riding with
the regular driver. 1t was the assist
ant postmaster at Toronto, who had
been sent here by the Canadian post
master general to investigate our new
ly inaugurated but rapidly extending
rural delivery system. The promptness
with which enterprising men jump
from one country to another in search
of improvements when they hear OF
them is notable. Nova Scotia already
has some rural delivery routes, and 1t
would not be surprising if United
States official appeared there before
long to look them over. The inter-

states-a new system of land transfer.

Various state societies have accom-
plished so much good in the way OF
preserving and marking places OF
scenic and historic interest that con-
gress has been asked to create a ma
tional society. The Companion has
already mentioned the rescue Of the
Palisades. In Massachusetts most Of
the spots conspicuous in colonial and
revolutionary history have been
marked by suitably inscribed tablets,
and similar work is in progress in Vir-
ginia. Such efforts make strong ap-
peal to the imagination; they also
perform a national service in keeping
the patriotic deeds of the fathers before
the eyes of the children.
