Fall Kiver, Mass : Its Location., Water Poioer and Groioth in Cotton Manufacture. ^ALL RIVER, the largest Cotton Manu- facturing centre of America, is a city and port of entry of Bristol County, Massachusetts. The city is compactly built, and rises somewhat abruptly from the eastern shore of Mount Hope Bay, an arm of Narra- gansett Bay. The remarkable water power and the spa- cious harbor of Fall River, are such in tlieir conjunction as few cities on all the seaboard enjoy, and have been prime factors in the in- dustrial history of the place. The water power is derived from a small stream — Fall River — whence the name of the city, which has its source, or is in reality the outflow of a chain of ponds lying two miles cast of the Bay, cov- ering an area of 3,500 acres, and having a b WATER POWER. length of about eight miles, and an average breadth of three quarters of a mile. They are mostly supplied by perennial springs though receiving the outlets of several othe: sheets of water. The extent of country drained, is comparatively small, — the whole water-shed being not over 20,000 acres, and the quantity of power therefore is to be attrib uted to the springs alluded to, and to the great and rapid fall of the river, which in less than half a mile is more than 129 feet. The flow of the river is one hundred and twenty one and a half cubic feet per second, or 9,841, 500,000 Imperial gallons in a year of three hundred and ten days of ten hours each. The remarkable advantages of this river as a mill stream have been increased by building a dam at the outlet of the ponds, which gives the water an additional fall of tv/o feet, and its lower banks are largely built up with great manufacturing establishments, which, singly or in groups, rapidly succeed each other. The river for nearly its entire length runs upon a granite bed, and for much of the distance is confined between high banks, also of granite. Differing therefore from most other water- powers, this one allows the entire space be- tween its banks to be occupied, and most of WATER POWER. 7 the water wheels connected with the older fac- tories are placed directly in the bed of the river. While there is an almost uniform and constant supply of water, it is never subject to excess, and an injury in consequence of a freshet has never yet been known. As the river is thus perfectly controllable, the mills have been built directly across the river, the wheels placed in the bed of the river, and yet from an excess of water no damage is to be apprehended. In later years, most of the breast wheels employed in the older mills have been supplanted by the modern appli- ances of turbine wheels and steam power. The successful management of these facto- ries on the stream ( the oldest organized in 1813 ) was the foundation of the Cotton Manu- facturing industry of Fall River. In the course of years, with the increase of wealth and skill in manufacture, and the en- trance upon the stage of action of younger men, new projects were formed, (1868-73) and since the older mills occupied all avail- able space upon the river banks, new situa- tions were sought out and appropriated, first on the margin of the ponds to the south and east of the city, end of which the stream » GROWTH IN is the outlet and afterwards in the northerly and southerly sections of the city, on the banks of the Taunton river and Laurel lake. The number of incorporated companies for the manufacture of cotton goods is now thirty- eight, owning fifty-seven mills with an incor- porated capital of $18,543,000, but a probable investment of §35,0('0,000, containing 1,823,472 spindles, and 41,219 looms. The statistics of 1887 report the total num- ber of mills in the United States as 916, con- taining 274,291 looms and 13,520,119 spindles, manufacturing 791,500,000 yards of print cloths per annum. Of these, New England has 485 mills, containing 215,261 looms and 10,454,977 spindles, manufacturing 651,000,000 yards of print cloths. Fall River has thus nearly l-7th of all the spindles in the country, and about l-5th of those in New England, and manufac- tures over THREE-FIFTHS of all the print cloths. The following table will show the number of spindles in the mills of Fall Eiver at the close of each year respectively : 1865,— 265,328. 1874,-1,258,508. 1881,-1.429,412. 1866,— 403,624. 1875,-1,269,048. 1882,-1,678,016. 1868,— 537,416. 1876,-1,274,265. 1883,-1,713,836. 1870,- 544,606. 1877,-1,284,701. 1884,-1,688,692. 1871,— 788.138. 1878,-1.322,169. 1885,-1,742,884. 1872.-1,094.702. 1879,-1,364,191. 1886,-1,795.254. 1873,-1,212,694. 1880,-1,390,830. 1887,-1,823.472. COITON MANUFACTURE. 9 While the prmcipal business of Fall River consists in the production of print cloths, its industrial activity is also engaged in the bleach- ing and dyeing of cotton goods ; the printing of calicoes by the American Printing Co., one of the largest establishments in the country, and noted, especially, for its indigo prints ; in the manufacture of cotton and other classes of machinery ; ot cotton thread, woolen goods, comforters, felt hats, boots, shoes, and other products of smaller factories, for which the city has unstirpassed facilities. The harbor formed at the mouth of Taunton river, is safe, commodious, easy of access, and deep enough for ships of the largest class. Its steamers are of world-wide renown for size, beauty, strength and speed. The city is underlaid with extensive beds of granite, easily quarried, and largely employed for building purposes. An inexhaustible sup- ply of the purest water, containing only 1.80 grains of solid matter per gallon, is found in the lakes just back of the city, which is con- veyed to the inhabitants through pipes laid by and under the control of a board of water com- missioners, elected by the city government. A stand-pipe, reservoir and fire-hydrants, to- gether with a thoroughly organized, paid fire- 10 EDUCATIONAL ADVANTAGES. 5 department and electric fire alarm, afford am pie provision against loss by fire. Good order is maintained by an eflficient and well-ofRcered police force of 70 patrolmen, and the record of crime is less than any other cityi of its size in the country. Educational interests have not been negj lected. The annual appropriations by the city\ amount to -^175,000 for the support of the High school,with english, classical and mixed courses, seven Grammar schools, a Training school and numerous Intermediate and Primary schools. The cause of education has recently received a new impulse, by the munificent gift in 1887, by a mother in honor of her deceased son, of| the " B. M. C. Durfee High School," a statelyj granite structure, occupying an entire square, with astronomical observatory, tower, clock and chimes, perfect in architectural design, complete in every detail, and fully equipped with the most modern appliances of intellectual and physical training. The city is provided with a Free Public Li- brary of upwards of 30,000 volumes, and seve- ral Circulating Libraries,well supplied with the most recent publications, newspapers and mag- azines, and accessible to all. There are also numerous private and society libraries and lo- cal book-clubs. CHURCHES AND SOCIETIES. 11 There are seven weekly and three daily pa- pers. Of churches there are twenty five Protestant and nine Roman Catholic, all well arranged and commodious and with educated and tal- ented preachers. Mission Schools shedding the kindly influence of Christianity here and there, have been established in various parts of the city, and under the care of devoted and self-sacrificing teachers, have continued from year to year with growing numbers and in- creasing usefulness. Fall River has forty seven lodges, distribu- ted among Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights, For- esters, etc., seven Temperance Societies, and numerous benevolent organizations conveying aid and comfort to the needy and deserving, always to be found in every community. There are seven banks with an aggregate capital of 82,123,000, and a surplus account of §800,852, and four Savings Banks, carefully and faithfully conducted, having ^11,461 ,6S4: deposits belonging to 25,247 depositors. A Loan and Trust Company and two Co-opera- tive Banks aid materially in facilitating finan- cial transactions. The city is lighted with gas and electric lights ; its streets are generally wide and many 12 CLIMATE. of them well shaded ; its private dwellings are neat and comfortable, and some of them of the finest architectural beauty. The winters are generally mild, being tempered by the Gulf Stream, while the summer is moderated by fresh breezes from the adjacent waters. The <;ity is exceptionally healthy and entirely free from malaria. The trunk lines and many of the lateral branches of a complete system of sewers have been completed ; a few of the principal streets have been paved; lines of horse-railroads radiate from the center to the suburbs, giving a convenient and ready means of transit Public Parks have been purchased and laid out in different sections of the city, and beautiful drives, giving extended views of the neighboring country, abound in the out- skirts. Fall Eiver is often called the " Border City," laecause lying on the very borders of the State. Previous to 1862, a part of the city was in Massachusetts and a part in Rhode Island, the dividing line of the two States running through the southern centre of the city. In that year, however, the boundary line was removed two miles south, and Pall Piver, Mass. and Fall Eiver, R. I., became one, thus bringing the whole city into one municipality. INCORPORATED. 13 Fall River is 49 miles south of Boston, 18S miles north-east of New York, 17 miles south of Taunton, 18 miles south-east of Providence, 14 miles west of New Bedford, and 18 miles north of Newport. Daily lines of steamers connect Fall River, Providence, Newport and New York, while three lines of Railways give ample passenger and freight communications inland. Pall River was formerly a part of Freetown, and was incorporated as a separate town in 1803. Its name was soon after changed to Troy, but in 1834 its old appellation was re- stored. Its Indian name was " Quequeteant,'' signifying the "placej of falling water," and that of the river " Quequechan " which signi- fies " falling water " or "quick-running water," hence its ajipropriate name of Fall River ; " Watuppa," the Indian name of the ponds on the east and by which they are still called, signifies " boats " or the " place of boats." Fall River was incorporated a City in 1854. ■■ Kf r 14 INDIAN NAMES. Indian Names of Pall River and Vicinity.
