Attempt to Drain Water from the Main Rhine'Herne Ca-
nal Failed, as the Locks on Both Sides of the Dm
mited Lock Were Closed Immediame — Bomb
Had Been Placed Under Great Difficulties.

 

By Associated Press .

ESSEN. April 9.—The explosion of '
a time bomb destroyed the lock of
the Dortmund-Ems canal near Horne.
early todoy. The canal was effectuv
ally blocked. seriously interfering
with the inland water way traffic in
the Ruhr.

Th is the most serious case of
sabo ge reported on the Ruhr water-
ways. The loek which was destroyed
is near the junction of the Dortmund-
Ems canal with the main canal that
runs down the Rhine at Duisburg and
Ruhrort. where the largest interna—
tional port of the world is loca-
ted.

The intention of the dynamiters ap-
parently was not only to block the
canal. but to drain water from the

 

main Rhine-Heme canal which is tho
main waterway artery of the Ruhr.
The French say this main canal ha.
not been interfered with. as the locks
on both sides of the one which was
dynamited were closed immediately
after the explosion to prevent tho
draining of the main canal.

The Dortmund-Ems canal. itself an
important water-way blocked by the
destruction of the lock. Guards ha.”
been placed at all junctions and lock.
as a measure for prevention of further
damage.

The circumstances of the explosion
indicated ,that the bomb had been
placed with great care under dif-
ficulties. It blew out the gate at! tor.
