Australlaa ɑṛain Cârgoes.
An interesting result of the war. says the "Syren," has been the shipment of Australian grain cargoes to the Pacific ports of the United States. The reasons for this course are : firstly, the arrival of Australian grain releases an equivalent amount of American grain for export; and, secondly, that return cargoes in the shape cf lumber are readily available,, Obviously also the, arrangement X conduces to simplifying shipping troubles by avoiding the long vyage from Australia to Great Britain.

Seattle Ship Canal According to the January issue. of the Bulletin of the National City Bank of New York, a long talked-of public,improvement, servicable to commence, has been. completed at Seattis by opening the ship canal connecting Lake Washington, through a lake. Union, with the waters of Puget el. Sound Lake Washington is a fine body of fresh water, 25 miles long and four miles wide, lying "。 the eastera - boundary of Seattle, the surises being 9 ft above the Sound at high tide. As long ago 28 1856 & Government, engineer recommended the con struction of a water way on the line now followed by this canal There was not much commercial use for it at that time, but, as Seattle grew, to be an important part, the project was revived-and- finally undertaken. The national Government bore all of the cost of --- the locks which are capable of accomm dating farzer véssela thau' any other locis in the American continent, save those fo of the Panama Catal. The canal is eight miles fong, 10) feet wide! and 36 leet deep. The principal look is 825 feet long, 30 feet wide and holds a depth of 50 feet of water. Ocean-going vessels make the passage through the large. lock in twenty minut and smaller craft go through smaller chamber in five to ten minutes. The total cost of the cadal, including right-of-way looks, &ch, was about AC00,000 dols. The canal provides: acce to a great nontidsl Harbour, wit -an-abundance, off frontage for docks and warehouses. Convent. ent of decess from the city.. "completion is an important event!
