ROCHESTER CITIZENS FAVOR GREAT
WATERWAY FROM LAKES TO OCEAN


WATERWAY FROM LAKES TO OCEAN
Saratoga. n. Y. Sept. pa new phase in the
discussion of the New York canal problem ap
pears in the efforts of delegation from Roches-
ter. headed by J. Y. McClintock. Commissioner
of Public Works, to prevent the Endorsement of
any plan for large expenditure by the State
of New-York upon the canals. and urge that
the United States be asked to complete the sur
veys for a ship canal from the lakes to the
ocean. 1t is alleged that ship canal be
built forming great river. flowing from Lake
Erie to the Hudson. having a capacity for COM
merce equal to the Hudson or the St. Lawrence
and also having the capacity TO create 100000
horsepower of water power distributed at many
points in the State between Lockport and Co
hoes The value of the water power thus ere
ated is estimated at $500 000OD0. The topog-
raphy of New-York is said TO afford the unique
possibility Of making d great navigable river
which for more than hundred miles will be
only a few miles distant from Lake Ontario,
and more than two hundred feet higher. making
power development possible anywhere. while the
large amount of water necessary to run the
canal will finally discharge into the head of the
Mohawk and have fall OF more than four
hundred feet before reaching the Hudson in
which river it will increase the navigable depth
