easily make greater progress than the French ever dreamed of making.
 From the deepest part of the Culebra cut through which the waters of Lake Bohio will flow without restriction to Pe- dro Miguel, the southern extremity of the lake. Is a distance of only about two miles. At Pedro Miguel will be another double set of locks to lower or raise the ships. These locks will have a lift of about 50 feet. and that they can be con- structed so that their successful operation will never be matter of doubt is freely admitted.
 From Pedro Miguel to Mirafiores will be short level-the distance is less than two miles-necessitated by the excessive tides on the Pacific side of the isthmus. Water for this level will be furnished by overflow from Lake Bohio, but at the foot of the Pedro Miguel locks the sea- level section on the Pacific side actually begins. The Pacific tide has an average flow of about IS feet. ranging from IA to 22 feet ordinarily, ard reaching 26 feet with the spring tides. It becomes neces- sary therefore. to introduce delegates at Mlraflores to simplify the transit of ships

the dam), a smaller easeway around the locks at Pedro Miguel, and spillway far over on the western side of Lake Be- hio. This spillway will be a mile long, and when the flow of the Chagres becomes greater than the capacity of the lake the water will rush over the top of the spill way, down into the Pena Blanca swamp, and. flowing over the surface of the swamp. discharge into the Caribbean sea, far to the westward of the present mouth of the Chagres river
 How We Have Changed Plans.
 With these accommodations for torrents in the Chagres that problem will be effec-
 tually solved, and. with the completion of the Culebra cut, the middle section of the canal (the summit leveD will be created as soon as the water from the Chagres can fill Lake Bohio. This
 lake, stretching from Bohio to
 Pedro Miguel, will be 9 miles long It's sides east and west, will be formed by natural hills, while on the south it will
 be controlled by the Pedro Miguel locks. At nc point along the route to be follow ed by ships in passing from ocean to ocean will its depth be less than 35 feet so that vessels will have practically clear sailing over its entire length. The only place where serious difficulty will be en- countered in navigation will be through | the narrow mountain defile of the Cule- | bra cut. In creating this lake the Americans will | accomplish their greatest work of sim plification. for they will, by abolishng the

busiest days the French worked thous- ands of men on this cut They have there now a plan of great magnitude, consist ing of hundreds of small locomotives for hauling trains of dumping cars, of which there are thousands; construction rail- roads built on many different levels on either side of the mountain which is to be cleft; steam shovels. drills, loading ap- paratus, fully equipped cable ways and all the other appliances of a gigantic ex- cavating undertaking.
 The construction railroads run for miles in different directions over the low-lying country on either side of the mountain range. and the dumpings have raised the surface of the land many feet. In all something like 5000 900 cubic meters have been removed by the French, leaving about 43,000,000 cubic meters, with the summit level at 50 feet, to be excavated by us. Just now the French are working only about 800 men at the cut, taking out 1000 cubic meters month, and the work is progressing with a hideous lack of alacrity.
 Down to Sea Level Again.
 What we shall be able to do at Culebra can only be guessed at. Nobody SUD- poses, however. that we will fail to com plete this portion of the task in about eight years. as with the modern machine cry we shall introduce, the greater facil- ity resulting from the use of electricity, the possibility through the use of electric lights of prosecuting the undertaking with three shifts of men working eight hours each, and the generally energetic manner in which we will undoubtedly grapple with the undertaking. we can

will be a-simple matter-there will be no difficulty encountered beyond that of pre- venting slit deposits that might obstruct the channel. This latter will entail con- stant dredging, an item which will come within the annual cost of maintenance and to which engineers are now paying no attention. .,
 The Great Bohio Dam.
 The plan for the Bohio dam will. beside greatly simplifying the whole canal pro feet, minimize the amount of work that will annually be required to keep the sea- level section from being filled up by the action of the water washing constantly against soft, yielding mud banks. for this dam will restrict the current in the Cha gres river until 1t will be no more for midable than Is the tide at Colon, which rises only IS inches. The dam at Bohio will be one of the largest ever construct ed. It will extend in an. easterly and wes- terly direction for distance of 1,2s6 feet. and 1t will be 300 feet wide on the bot tom, narrowing to about 25 feet O. the top, which will be about 75 feet above the level of the Chagres river. The only problem now bothering engineers who have given careful attention to the canal plans is in relation to this dam.
 The French. in prospecting the country about Bohio to secure a suitable location for the dam. did their work in shiftless manner. Their borings were wholly in adeouate, and Americans have not gone sufficiently into the matter to have bet tered to any appreciable extent what the
The Montgomery advertiser., 1904-01-22

of the route will be largely done away with. The lake will form a channel, 1t being necessary. instead of cutting along the entire route, merely to take off the top of the ground at such places as pres ent elevation will interfere with depth of 8 feet of water.
 Drilling and blasting will have to be done under our management of the enter prise. as now. at Culebra, but everywhere else the excavation will be in soft mud or soil, so that the work of making the canal itself Is reduced to a simple ques- tion of digging Within the lake will be ample room for ships to anchor during storms, securing all the advantages of a protected harbor. and the lake itself will make it possible by dredging in future years to bring the waterway along It's entire route down to the sea-level. should that be deemed advisable, without inter- fering with its commercial usage.
 It Is. as I said in the beginning, pro- tect free from any grave engineering dif- ficulties. The French, had they been sane and settled in their plans and honest in their execution, should have completed 1t a decade ago. That we can complete 1t and open it to commerce in less than a decade seems entirely reasonable; that we will do so Is implicitly believed h& everybody on the isthn s 7sSSas...
