It will be seen that the United In asking fof an appropriation of $10,000 for the expenses of a com mission to resurvey and estimate the cost of enlarging the old "Sassafras" canal connecting the Delaware and Chesapeake bays. Congressman Bur ton, of Delaware, gives some interest ing statistics on this old canal, one of the old artificial waterways in the United States. It is proposed by the Burton bill for congress to purchase this canal for the government and enlarge it to admit the largest vessels afloat. Mr. Burton gives the following In teresting history of the canal: The first survey for a canal to con nect the waters of the Delaware Bay with those- of the Chesapeake was made by August Herman In the year 170. for Lord Baltimore, and another was made by Joshua Gilpin fa the year 1804. The survey was probably made after the state of Maryland granted a char- j ter to the Chesapeake Delaware Ca- i nal company In the year 1799. j Whether the route of the present i canal was the only one surveyed by j the early work or not I am unable to , say. but since that date a number of ' other routes have been surveyed by j the government, looking to the con-: strtictlon of a waterway between the two bays as a part of a system of coast defense. These were known. ' respectively, as the "Sassafras." the "Chap'u-.k River." and the "South-! east" route, which contemplate a con-' srruction by way of the waters of the j Brcadkiln. cn the Delaware bay near!

In the Lead at All Times recommended In one of his messages to congress that such a waterway be constructed. jn au probability he was l-d l see the need of fuch a thing hv the war of HI I. The work of construction of the present Delaware Ar Chesapeake canal was begun on the 13th day of April. 1SH. under the direction of Silas E. Wei-, whose services terminated with his life on the 14th day of May. 152S. He was succeeded by P.obert M. Lewis under whose supervision the work was completed. The water was turned into the ca nal on the 4th day of July. H2!. The openmfr up of the national enterprise was the occasion of a grand celebra tion on the 17th of October in the same vear. The length of the canal Is U 5-S miles. Width at water line. 6 feet. Depth of water. 10 feet. Width at bottom. 2 feet. Length of locks. 100 feet. Width of locks. 22 feet. The total cost of this work was I2 250. 0O0 of which amount .$450,000' was paid by the United States govern ment. 1 00.000 by the state of Penn-sylvx-'a. 130.000 by the state of Mary land, and $25,000 by the state of Del aware. The remainder of the cost was contributed by the citizens of the three states above named. The total number of vessel passed through the canal since Its opening Is about 710.000. The total tonnage of merchandise about 46.000.000 tons. The d'stance from Philadelphia to Baltlmoie by way of the capes of Delaware and Mrglr.la Is about 425 miles. The distance by way of the Delaware & Chesapeake canal is but about 108 or 110 miles. Py way of the canal a steamer can cover the distance In from 12 to 15 hours, and Is alwayw sure of making about the time given. Dy way of the capes It would require from 40 to 4S hours, and to make that time would have to hare favorable weather. "Spruce Up" Your Home FURNITURE .
