EFFECT OF CANAL ON TRADE
Hambleton's Circular Gives Views On
Proposed Waterway.

Concerning the proposed Chesapeake
and Delaware deep-water canal Ham
bleton's circular, a Baltimore publica-
ton, says:
We consider the bay trade Of Balti-
more the citys most valuable asset,
and we are firmly of the opinion that
the deepening and widening of the
Chesapeake and Delaware canal and
the making Of the present toll water
way a free waterway, would be the
means Of detecting from our city
very large portion of this trade. which
is so valuable to the city of Baltimore
and its inhabitants
We can readily understand, as was
explained by the representative of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company,
that it would largely increase the
coastwise coal business Of this rail-
road to have the facility of sending
barges through such deep waterway.
While we all appreciate that any trade
which comes by rail to our port to be
reshipped must necessarily be Of adj
vantage to the city of Baltimore, it
must be realized that this coal trade.
of which so much was said in connec-
ton with the advantages Of the pro-
posed canal, is in fact of very little
profit to the city of Baltimore or its
people. The cars of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company are run upon
an elevated structure at Locust Point,
and are dumped into the holds of
barges or vessels. and this handling,
which is almost automatic, is about the
only advantage which the city Of Balti-
more receives from this particular
business. SO it will be seen that, al
though the coal trade of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company might be
very largely increased through the
building Of this canal, there would be
Evening journal. [volume] (Wilmington, Del.) 1888-1932, 1906-10-02
very little benefit derived by the city

very little benefit derived by the city
itself from such traffic.
Besides, there is one feature which
we noticed was not referred to in the
conference above mentioned, and that,
that it is proposed at present to build
a deepwater canal only between the
Chesapeake and Delaware bays. which
would mean, of course. that Philadel-
phia will be the only point which could
avail of and profit by the traffic from
such a canal. We are of the opinion
that, if it should be determined to con-
tinue this deep waterway through the
inland water connections between
Philadelphia and New York, the peo-
pie Of Philadelphia would be very much
less enthusiastic in favoring the build
ing of such a canal than they are in
advocacy of the canal between the
Chesapeake and Delaware bays, which
latter waterway would draw very
largely from the traffic of the Chesa-
peake bay to the city of Philadelphia
at the expense of the city of Balt-
more.
Our opinion in regard to this matter
is not based upon any prejudice or
self-interest, but entirely upon investi-
cation and consultation with those who
are interested in our bay trade and
who are thoroughly familiar with the
subject.
