Details of the Scheme for Impounding The Nile's Waters. After nearly four years of delibera. tion the great dam across the iS'ile which is to conserve the waters of the river for the irrigation of Egypt, has been definitely decided upon, the plans have been drawn, the contrac tors found, and the work practically begun, as has been already briefly stated in these columns. By the beginning of the next eenturv one of the greatest engineering works of modem times will be oa its way to completion. The colossal character of the great data will be apparent when it is stated that the flood discharge of a river a mile wide and thirty feet deep, flowing at a high velocity, will have to be discharged through sluices at the rate of 16.000 tons per secoml ami that the water will be dammed back at times to a height of about sixty-six feec above its present level, and for a dis tance of 1 14 miles above the dam. The ijuantitv of water impounded will be more than 1,000,000,000 tons. The history of the preliminaries to the dam's construction is a long one and a curious one. When four years ago, it was announced that the great datn at Assuan was in course of consideration. the archaeologist raised a cry of dismay at the prospect of the temples of Philac, which are situated on an island about a mile above the site of the dam, being submerged. In vain the engineers protested that the value of l'hilae to Egypt was as nothing to the benefits wbiph wnnM be conferred on it by the construction of a Nile reservoir. In vain Sir lien, juinin Baker declared that the Egyptians did not care a piastre for the ruins except as a means of attracting tourists. The vicarious archaeological spirit was strong in the land?in England that is to say?and in deference to it a proposition was made to raise the temple bodily. ''From the archaeological point of \iew." wrote Sir Benjamin Baker in 18P1. "The condition of the temples when raised would he unchanged, as every stone would remain as originally laid by the builder. From the artbtic point of view the appearance would be enhanced, because the tern pies would rise out of a wide placid lake, whereas now when visited by tourists the Nile is low, the stream insignificant, and Philae islands appear to stand in a hollow. The well drilled garrison at Assuan would be delighted to work the elevated screws ) ilPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS ounty Treasurer, ining March 15, 1897, and xh 15, 1898.

This phasing pro1 Jeer, however, will not need to be given an opportunity for realization j.aw. for whereas the dam might have rendered its execution desirable was t ? have been 118 metres above the lower water level, the dam which is actually to be constructed is loO metres only, and the extra twelve metres w ill spare the temples. Hut before the question of Philae rose to such prominence, the engineeis had already exhausted every other project. Sir William Gartin, K. C. M. G.. undersecretary of state tor public works in Egypt, and Mr. Wdlcoeks, an engineer in the service of the Egyptian government, prepared various projects for the construction of reservoirs in the Nile valley, and these were referred to an international commission. The first project examined by the commission was that of the Wadi ltayyan reservoir. The Wadi llayyan project consisted in the conversion of a deep depression in the desert into a vast lake of nearly ;5oo square miles in extent. It would have hern situated several hundreds of miles below Assuan, and only To miles from Cairo; its bottom being 4- metres below sea level. Advantage would have been taken of it for storage purposes by connecting it with the Nile at a distance of about j "?"> miles by a canal. But the oh- j vious defects in this otherwise brilliant scheme, were the difficulties of constructing a canal through doubtful soil, and would have conveniently served Lower Egypt only. It also proved to be very costly, and would iiave done nothing toward controlling floods. '1 he next reservoir site suggested was at the Silsila (Lite, at a point about fifty miles down stream from l?l.;i.w. *11 *1 ~ V':i . ......v juiu kiu nt? cniers uic j Nubian sandstone, an inferior sandstone, with hands of clay, by a nar-1 tow pass of fewer than 4oo metres in ; width and five metres in depth. The j '! commoners, to whom the projects were j referred, were unanimous in rejecting' ; this plan, on the grounds of insecurity | alone, quite apart from other objections, such as great depth of water and narrow width of liver between I the high banks. This site also had j the inconvenience not only of swamp- I ing a temple, the temple of Kotnotiibos, but of flooding the town of As- | sua n. Another project mooted, chiefly, 1 we believe, in the interest of saving IMiilae, was the construction of a dam j at Kulubsheth, ubout thirty miles up I * I. stream, but here, through the quantity of the rock was all that could be desired, the depth and width of the river were such as to render the con. struction of the government dam, as strengthened and otherwise modified by members of the commission, abso. lutely impossible on financial grounds alone, apart from engineering diffi. culties. This left the commission with only the Assuan dams to consider. So far as strength and economy of founda. tions are concerned, the site leaves nothing to be desired. The reck throughout is hard, and the section of the river is so wide and shallow that the foundations can be put in dry.

There were one or two alternative schemes proposed at Assuan, as usual, in the interests of Philae. One placed the dam, a high level dam, above the temple, where in the chart the archi* pelago of islands begins. But the approximate estimates prepared at the request of the majority of the commission, showed that oven if practicable the cost of the cheapest of the alternatives would be several mil. lions greater than that of the Lower Level Dam. So that finally the Lower Level Dam was resolved upon by what may be described as a process of ex. haustion. The type selected for the work is that of an un6ubmerged masonry dam, pierced with numerous under sluices, through which will pass the slit.laden watets of the floods, while the clear supply at the close of the inundation may be impounded at will with no risk of inconvenient sliting up of the . rm v . *ii i reservoir, i nose siuiccs win no some two yards wide each and will number from loo to l'2o. The sluice grates adopted are those employed at Dough Erne and elsewhere. The piers he. tween the under sluices are some three yards wide, but in order that should any failure occur, it may he localized, the sluices are separated into groups by massive alujment pieis. The traflie of the river is pro vided fur by a chain of locks, in num. her six or seven, and the dam will act as a bridge for a broad carriage road will he driven along its length. The length will he a mile, exclusive of up. preaches.?Philadelphia Record. IN DIPLOMATIC DISORACE. The United States has been a nation with f reign relations for about a century and a quarter. During that time seven representatives of foreign governments have been dismissed. The first instance was the case of Genet, minister from France during Washington's second teim. He was rcculled in 17(J4 at the request of this country for endeavoring to stir up trouble between the United States and Great Britain. During Jefferson's administration Yrojo, the Spanish minister, was sent home on account of conduct not only unbe coming ft diplomat, t?nt even in an honest man and si gentleman. Jackson, the British minister, during Madison's first term, was recalled on a request from Washington because of offensive criticism of this governernment. In 18411 (Jen. Taylor then, President, sent the French minister, M. l'oiissin, his passports. During (Jen. Grant's first term, the Russian minister, Catacazy, was recalled at our request, and during President i Cleveland's first term a like fate happened to Lord Packville West, the British minister. Then follows the De Lome affair of recent date. In all, the recall of seven ministers has been demand**!, two British, two French, two Spanish and one Russian. ?
