Few people know that the estimated
cost of the Nicaragua carnal Is 100,000,
000, and that lit will take six years to
build ft, and that the estimated traffic
through lit at 'the opening will be
6,000,000 tons, but euoh Is the case. The
canal In excavation Is 26.8 miles in
lengith; the lengitlh of basins 21.6 miles
The length of tlhe San Juan river 64
miles; Lake Nicaragua, 56.5 miles,
making the total length of the canal
from ocean to ocean, 164.4 miles. Few,
also perhaps, know that the distance
frsm Liverpool to San Francisco via
the Horn, is 14,630 miles, and that the
diisbanoe from Liverpool to San Fran
Cisco, vila the Nicaragua canal, Is only
7694 miles, or a saving of 6,996 miles,
or tlhat the distance from New York
to Sain Francisco, via the Horn, is 14,
810 miles, and the distance between the
same points by the oanal routes is
only 4946 miles, or a saving of 9894
miles. The completion of this oanal
nans to Oregon a 30 day service by
steamer between Portland and New
York and England; It means that the
products of the forests of the West
will be (aid down In the markets of
the East at living prices, and that
staple commodiities will be brought to
this coaat at the minimum cost.
The raising of JDOO.OOO In Seattle for
the budding of the new canal that
will make a fresh-waiter harbor on the
Sound for deep-water vessels nhows
that the Sound people are a'.lve to the
situation and ' are determined to get
the advantage over Portland If poasl
ble. As bebween Seattle nnd Portland,
as points of shipment for export of
the products of the Northwest, Seatt'.i
given the new harbor, Seattle wilt
?et the business. As between Seattle
and the mouth of tthe Columbia river,
botih being fresh-water harbors and
bath having dlreot rail connection with
tthe interior for handling of the pro
duots of the country, the mau'h of the
Oolumbla would com'tra) the business.
A glance at the map will show that
wlih a railroad to Astoria the entire
amount of grain produced In Eastern
Oregon would seek the natural water
level route down the Columbia for
shipment, where the Jaost expense

that will handle the business. What

known from that source. Captain Mc
Coy was seen tout he knew nothing
whatever of any aooident as reported.
The information thait reached Port
land therefore, muit have been wired
from some adjacent port, probably
Gray's Harbor.

Townsend he 'probalblly did not get
outside the StraJts unltll Tuesday after
noon, 1n which case she would te due
off the Columbia some time yesterday
morning. The fact,' however, that the
Associated Press did not send out any
thing in Its regular report leads to the
belief What ithere is not muah founda
tion to 'the story. Captain McCoy will
take a cruise about while outside to-
diy and If anything of the sort hasj
happened he will probably run across
some evidence of It. t
The Columbine left Tuesday for De
struction Island, and was to go thence
to Gray's Harbor. If an acctdomt has
occurred Uhe tender will probably know
something about tt.
