Then Enclond Will Ee Beady to Cnder- take This Tremondoas Project.: The Popular ' Science Monthly - coni tains an article describing, a proposed' isthmus, or - dam across the northern part of the Irish channel, the main ob ject being to utilize the current through- tnis cnaanei for mechanical purposes. The channel is 300 feet deep on thev erage, fifteen miles wide and the tidal current from the north is i eight miles an honr. As a result fifty cubic; miles, or over 200,000,000,000 tons of water.' pass the point Where it .is proposed to build the. dam every day. The rate at which' the water moves gives -each f these tons of water the power of ten- ioot tons, ana tne power developed- is therefore between 150,000,000 and 200,- 000,000 horse power; There are hillq near at hand from which- the materials for the dam can be taken: and shippinir may be provided for by locks, or by en larging certain canals. ; . If-the plan -should be successful it would make England practically Inde pendent of her coal supply; but there ore obstacles in the way. For instance says the Brooklyn Citizen, it would be impossible to transmit the electrical power produced without loss, and transferring it for more than 100 miles is at present impracticable.- It would nevertheless be possible to use it in the Lancashire cotton mills and perhaps in the smelting works of northern Eng land. . .Llectricil .nay also be used in cooking, and if the price of coal ro6e somewhat it could ' be employed for heating. As an engine requires about one ton of coal a year per horse power to keep it running day and sight, it will be seen that England would in this new source of power have a substi tute for her entire coal output. The cost of the undertaking is estimated at 8100,000,000; reckoning interest at 5 per cent this would be about 3 cents a year for every . horse power, produced, ' or C(jual to 3 cents a .ton.for. every ton of coal displaced. But the cost of utiliz ing the force would be enormous. It is doubtful whether this plan is prac ticable as yet, but it snows bow ground less are the' fears of those who think that civilization must -cease when the worla s.coal supply give -out !
