Abstract
The object of this paper is to record the results of some of the writer's. investigations into the law of river hydraulics. As a result of these investigations, two empiric formulas have been devised by means of which the cross profile of a channel may be computed. Some characteristics of the law were also disclosed, which are believed to be the most important discoveries in that law in more than fifty years. In conclusion, some practical applications of these formulas are given which furnish the solution to problems that heretofore have been considered not susceptible of solution.
