FAVORS THE prob nothing Private Secretary FREMON CANAL. thuslastic Advocates of the Scheme Push- % the Project. FREMONT, April 6.—(Spectal to The Tiee.)—A very enthusiastic meeting was Nold at the club rooms last night to receive the report of the engineers on the survey of the Platte canal project. The report was very complete, embracing length, polnt of commencement, course, capacity, horse power and termination, with an estimate of the cost and of what it would he worth to the city. The route surveyed contemplates a canal cighteen and two-tenths miles in length, the commencement to be a little over four miles west of Morse Bluffs, At a point three-fourths of a mile east of the point of diversion from the tlver the sur- veyed line enters a large slowgh, covering about a square mile, that, with but little work, could be made an immense storage reservoir to supply the canal in the lowest stages of water. The fall of the river from the head of the canal to the mouth of Elm ereek, its termination, fs found to be five feet to tho mile, giving a head at sito of the dum of seventy-two und elght- tenths feet. About eight miles of the course of the canal is through cultivated elds and the balance through the uncul- tivated rough lands of the bluffs The capacity of the proposed canal is es- timated at 895 horse power, or 145 greater than now in use In the city, and the total 064. It i3 estimated that a reve- nue of $30,000 per year can be derived from the plant, and a saving of $12,000 to the consumers. Donald G. Campbell of Denver, a prom- inent engineer of the west, was present, and expressed a convietion that the route’ was teasible. A special committee of ften was a J. F. Hansen, Munger, Otto Huette, Wil- Smith, Robert Bridge and ting was very harmonious, and all ongly in favor of pushing the en to completion at the earliest possi- ble moment.
