Where tho Best Ohannels Will Be Found in Ohicago River, Lake Frelghis, Dredging, New Steamer Lines, and Many Matlers of Interest to Harkners. THE TUNNELS AND NAVIGATION, A morning vaper having stated that, when tho water woe best in the harbor, the Washington and La8alle street tunnels were bullt; that thero were 15 {t of water left over them, aud that the “water bad declined, and at best there ts only 183¢ ft over them; that no matter how much dredging fs done the tunnels will be “‘bnd places,” and “how the matter fs to bo remedied is for the City Engineer und the Coun- cil to decide, a Trinuns reporter has obtatned some bottom facta, which follows According to soundings the mean average depth of the water fn the middle of the riyer over the Washington street tunnel in Jauuary Inst, when the water is at a lower stage than during the season of navigation, was fitteen feet and tive inches. The City Engineer says tt {s nonsonae to say that thirteen and one-half fect has beon the best depth of wator at that polnt, From the top of the flagging that covers the tunnel arches to city datum or low-trater ark, tt {a fourteen foet and flve inches. The average depth of woter in the river has been one foot above low-water mark, which makes {t fifteen fect and flye Iuches atthe tunnol. A profile map io the City En+ glocer’s ollice shows that the water rises In the spring and ausmer, and hing reached Its highest polotinJuly, Mr. Chesbrough states that when the Masiington Street tunncl wos built it was intended that vesscls passing over It should keep the mlddle of the river, und it was not doe- signed for craft drawing fourteen feet of water to pags over it during a very low staze of water. The tunnel was built ion 1807, when there was fourteen feet navigation at the 8t, Clair Flats, In regard to any damage resulttne froth yee fels erounding at the tunnel, Mr. Chesbrough says that if the largest propalleron the lakes Was loaded with iron and sunk unon ft, it could not hurt ff, nor could an anchor-luke injure ft, because the flagging is sloped to prevent just such an eccutrence. Tie duce not apprehend any danger whatever from vesaels dragging over the tunnel, and docs not believe that the public would allow jt to be dane away with to nuit of a deepening uf the river, At LaSalle street the Senile of water Is 18 feet iu the miudle of the iver, 5 There area few veasola trading jat this port that draw from fourtecn and a half to sixteen eet of water when toaded to thelr full capacity, and those of the greatest draft cannot pass over the Washington street tunnel deeply Inden when the water Js at alow stage, It is not iikely that any more vesscla ns Jarze as the prop Commodore, which tons 2,200, wifl be built in future.
