It had been expeeted that the much-Involved question of Chicago's rewerae Wotld come tip fn some shipe or other, and that Mayor Unrrlson, Dr. Itnuch, ofthe State Board of Heath, and others ould be present to hear the views of the Commissioners, a4 well ag to present their own. Besides thls, it had been expected that they woul? go down to observe the ef- fect of the openIng of the waste-gates. Dr. auch sent © letter of regret from Springfield, the Mayor failed to come at ali orto even send word, and the others fol- fowed his example, Had tho Mayor put tn anappearnnce, tho subject of the proposed Bridgeport pumping-works would very prob- ally have been brought up and discussed with a considerable degree of thorowrhness, As it owas, the Canal Commissloners had re- ealved nothing bearing tho faintest resem- plance ton communtention from the cily on tho subject, and, iv short, had nothing prop- erly beforo thom to consider. The report of Chief-Engineer Jenno, submitted at the Inst, ineeting, lind placed them in possession of all the information they had previously asked. for, and reguired no’ netion wb thelr honds, ‘Tho substance of that report, it will be re- membered, Was that the canal contd in nll probability tuke enre “of 60,000 euhic fect of water per minute, thonzh the Inflow of that adilitional amount of water might so In- crease (ha current ns to impede Savigatlon by mule-power, Which, by the way, Is fast vein superseded by steam. ‘There wus. gn- oltier polnt In the report, however, on which Commissioners would have conferred with the Mayor, or some other represenin- live of Chieago, had he been present—viz, + the statentent that a new lock at Bridgeport would be necessary In cage tho putuping: works were restored and the elty went ahead pitaping 60,000 cuble fect into the canal,— rather too much of a waterfall for the pres- entlock, and especially so in view. of the fact that it ig considerably In need of repairs. A new. lock of the proper sort, accord- ing to Mr. Jenne’s report, woult cost some $13,000, and the question would naturally arise, Who's to pay for it??? From nensun remark dropped by one of the Commisston- ers, Inconversation with Tie Trimune rep- resentative, it was Inforred that the elty and not the Commission ought to foot the bill the Improvement being more In tho nature of an advantage toitthanto tha canal. It is safe to say that, with the wo bodies repre- sented, thesnbject would have come up for discussion, s THE MAIN INTEREST OF TIDE DAY, of course, Iny in the opening of the w gates on the west side of tho canal, dir opposit the raitrond depot. Not that opening ie gates Was new experiment,—for they have been lifted a number of times be- fore—but that the opening was re- Jed” upon to once more show the erronecousness of the claiin so frequently made, by certain individuals who are wiser In thelr own esteem than, Solomon or Supet intendent Thomas, that the onc thing need- fulto the efiiciont draining of the Ohleago River—next; to. pumping ‘the river Into the cann!—was fo throw these gutes wide open. and thus afford an outlet to the waters of the ¢anal and the water of the river behind then, Itwos generally understoot! In Chicago that the gates were to be opened yesterday morn Ing, but they were really opened Wednesday afternoon at half-past 3 o'clock, Lest te reader may suppose that the object of open- ing them was merely to show ‘the unsound- ness of the theory, it should be stated that this was but o mere tuneident. Attha close of the season of navigation Inst December, the Canal Commissioners ordered the partiad rebuilding of the Jock nt Lock- yort, in order to proceed with the work It was of course necessary to leave the work high and dry, so to speak, A dam was there- fore erected north of the Jock, and tho waters were thus keptin check, ‘The work on the lock Is practically completed, and, In order to tear down tho dam, it was necessary to let out the water by the waste-gates, which are still further to the north, ‘Lhe opening of 2 gates was therefore a necessity; the ex- periment, merely an inefdent. There are eighteen of these gates In the Welr, and thelr total width ts eighty feet. The canal itself at this pareular point is 120 feet wido and about eight fectdeep, North wi south of the gates, at a considerable dis- tance aboye and below tha town, the stream {3 sixty feet wide, and its average depth about geven feet. As soon as the gates were opened the water began to rust pell-mell through tho new outlet, and found reftige in tho Despiulnes River. Of course tho depth of the canm gradually decreased, wuul yeaterday imoraing it was apparent that it had FALLEN NEARLY FIVE FEET By afternoon the fall had inereased about half a foot more. ‘The fall farther up the atream was naturally less pereeptible, At Lemont, five miles north, according to the best Information obtainable, it was from ten to twelve Inches, while at Romeo, three miles North, it was tilrty-two Inches, and at Wil- dove fa pring elght miles north, thero was no ever, “Tow tong do you Intend to keep the gates Open?” eueried “the reporter of Superin- tendent Thomas, who was. laining to hin the effect of the new outlet.” “The dam will ba removed, T expect, some time Saturday, go that Ecan shut down dur- Teer orit wlll there b ! low far north will there be any percepti- big fall by thne time?” pec “Itphould take about twenty-four hours from the thne thy gates were opened to draw of from Lemont. “The fall may extend, be- fore we got through, to the Sag, abouttwelve tilles north.
