Little traffic: there's no movement of goods at this point of the Welland Canal in St. Catharines and shippers' losses are mounting already. A wall collapsed Monday, stalling shipping in the St. Lawrence Seaway in both directions. It may be a week before it is known how long repairs will takes.

Where Canal gate collapsed. At least nine men were killed, twelve are in hospital badly crushed and several others were more or less seriously injured at Lock No. 6 of the new Welland canal to-day, when a 500-ton gate collapsed as it was being placed in position by derricks. At the TOP is shown Locks No. 5 and 6 with Lock No. 7 in the background. The depth of the canal at this point is 130.8 feet, almost the sa depth as the Horseshoe Falls.

Slow going: A tug boat (above) nips into ice behind a lock gate to dislodge chunks at the Welland Canal. The frigid weather has been slowing down the ships recently, like lake freighter Canadian Prospector (right). Normally. the St. Lawrence Seaway is closed by now, but long shutdowns of the system earlier this season have forced the authorities to keep it open. Tug boats were brought into action to keep the system from clogging up and to let the last of the ships reach their winter berths or faraway shores.
