MAnyEhoUs SYSTEM OF CANALS
proxided in Report Presented by Now York State Engineer.

York state Engineer.
 Albany. N. Y, Feb. 20.-A marvellous system of state canals, the boats to De run by electricity and to be l5o rect long by twenty-five feet wide, with a draft of ten feet, and to travel in fleets going from Albany to Buffalo III less than three days, is the plan presented by State Engineer Bond and a capaple board of engineers to Governor Odell. The system is to be built for $7,0oo,ooo less than proposed by the canal com mission appointed by Governor Hpose- welt. The canals will be able to carry 15. 100000 tons of freight a season or seven months.
 For building an Erie barge canal on the route favored by State Engineer Bond, s49 OOO, GOO; for deepening the Os- wego canal to nine feet $S59,0 ,026; TOT deepening the Champlain canal to SIX feet. $5472, 900; total cost of canal lm- provement, s55,331,026
 These are the figures, in round num- bers, presented by State Engineer Bond to Governor Odcll. They are figures that are surprising, because 1t has been intimated that the figures of the canal commission, of $62,0OO,0OO, would be Tar exceeded when a careful survey IS made. The figures for the Erie canal are $9,OSO,O0 less than those of the com mission, while the figures for the Cham plain canal are three times the amount asked for by the commission. The re- port was endorsed as to the cost Of the canals by a number of experts from diff ferent parts of the country.
 The state engineer in his report says; The estimate of 49,O0O,OOO is for canal of the size suitable for barges Of ten feet draft, twenty-five feet width ana 15O feet length. The canal as planned is first-class i'll every respect, with LOCKS of the most modern type, capable of passing two boats at once, recent inn proyements and methods for filling and emptying the locks, with power gener- ated to pull the boats into and out o1 the locks, operate the gates and valves and furnish electric light. In the river and lake channels the minimum Wldtf is 200 feet In the navigation of the proposed canals only steam, electric ol other mechanical motors have been con sidered; consequently the towpath VII be a thing of the past.

DE VET .ESC4PES AGAIN.
Inference Drawn from Kitchener's Re-
 turn to Pretoria.

London, Feb. 21.-As Lord Kitchener is now back in Pretoria the inference is that General De Wet has again es- capped from the supposed cordon. There is no further news of General French's pursuit of Commandant General Botha in the eastern Transvaal. Statements emanate from both Pretoria and Brus- sels that MT. Kruger contemplates re- turning to South Africa. It Is said that he has just finished writing memorial on the war which will be sent to the European governments and to Presl- dent Mckinley.

 Washington, Feb. 20.-The answer of the state department to the House reso- lution calling for statement as to whether the United States has not broken the treaty of 1871 in allowing American ports to be used for forward ing American horses and other supplies to the British army in South Africa, a privilege not enjoyed by the Boers, will point to the well established section of international law warranting neutral nations in selling supplies to belliger- ent though these supplies may proper ly be seized by belligerent. It also will be shown that no obstacle was in- terposed by the United States govern" ment to the purchase of horses and mules by the Boers, who presumably did not do so because they were unable to land them in South Africa.
