PORTLAND, ME., DISTRICT. MR. C. F. PORTER, UNITED STATES AGENT, IN CHARGE. ST. CROIx RIVER, ME. The St. Croix River, which forms a part of the eastern boundary between the United States and Canada, has its head of navigation at the city of Calais, Me., and town of St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Opposite to it with bridge connection, about 32 miles from the sea. . The commercially developed portion extends about 14 miles down river from the head of navigation. As a result of the completion in 1916 of the existing project, a channel has been provided 200 feet wide and 12 feet deep at mean low tide up to the lower end of the above section, extending thence 150 feet wide and 9 feet deep at mean low tide up to the head of navigation. The mean range of !"; at Calais and St. Stephen is 20 feet with an extreme of about 3 feet. The commerce of the St. Croix River at Calais and St. Stephen, as shown by port statistics for 1918, amounted to 23,355 tons, valued at $553,290. The traffic is carried on by small to medium sized Schooners, passengers being served by one or two small steamboats, and also by various types of motor boats. Sailing vessels to the number of 129 arrived at and departed from Calais and St. Stephen during the calendar year 1918. Passengers carried amounted to about 4,000 during this period. The water terminals lie on both sides of the river within 14 to 1% miles of the head of navigation, the greater number being on the Calais side. They consist of piers extending into the river at about right angles with the current. With two exceptions they are of timber-crib construction, and, generally speaking, are in from fair to good condition. The facilities afforded by the water terminals for the handling of freight, while crude, are used to but a small extent in comparisor. with their capacity. An investigation of the transfer facilities of the St. Croix River at Calais, Me., failed to disclose the necessity or the desirability of publicly owned water terminals. Owing to the decrease in volume of water-borne traffic, the existing facilities are more than adequate for present and prospective requirements. The interest shown in the improvement of harbor facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities are slight, but this is, in a measure, probably due to the comparatively small volume of traffic at present handled at this port. The water facilities have been adequate to meet the demands made upon them, while the existing railway service is fully adequate for any present and reasonably prospective traffic. 7 8 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. BAR HARBOR, ME. Bar Harbor, a village of about 5,000 inhabitants, is situated on the eastern side of Mount Desert Island, on the western shore of Frenchmans Bay, about 150 miles by water northeast from Port- land, Me. There are no railroads at Bar Harbor, the nearest station being Mount Desert Ferry, about 8 miles distant by water. It is, however, connected by bridge with the mainland at Trenton. The nearest railway station by land is Ellsworth, about 20 miles from Bar Harbor. Both Mount Desert Ferry and Ellsworth are on the line of the Maine Central Railroad. The harbor was exposed to wave action from southerly storms. As the greater portion of navigation at Bar Harbor is confined, especially in summer, to ferry steamers and pleasure boating with craft of from small to moderate size, this exposure was a constant source of danger, to alleviate which a project, now practically completed, was adopted August 11, 1888, by the Federal Government providing for the con- struction of a riprap breakwater extending from Porcupine Island to Dry Ledge, and thence in a direct line to within about 600 feet of the low-water line on Mount Desert Island. The mean range of tide is 10 feet. The commerce at Bar Harbor, as shown by port statistics for 1918, amounted to 27,318 tons, valued at $2,064,076. The regular year-round commerce employs steamboats of com- bined passenger and freight type, varying from 400 to 700 gross tons and from 128 to 182 feet in length. In summer, navigation is greatly augmented by a large number of pleasure yachts, both steam and sail, and motor boats of great diversity as to size and type. Commercial vessels arriving and departing during the calendar year 1918 included 6,112 steamers, 189 sailing vessels, and 5 barges. Average draft, 10 to 12 feet. Passengers carried amounted to about 54,000. The water terminals at Bar Harbor used for commercial purposes lie along a somewhat sheltered portion of the village water front, not exceeding one-quarter mile in length. They are, without exception, Of jº, construction and in good condition. The facilities for the handling of freight, while not elaborate, appear to fully equal the demands made upon them by present requirements. Pas- senger-traffic facilities are excellent and are equal to the present and any reasonable prospective demands. Owing to the apparent ability of the existing terminal and transfer facilities at Bar Harbor to meet the present and any reasonable pros- pective demands of commerce, and to the fact that, with one excep- tion, the freight terminals are available for use by all vessels having cargoes to discharge, the necessity for a publicly owned terminal at this locality is not manifest. The interest shown in the improvement of harbor facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available are fully commensurate with the volume of business. The water con- nections are excellent, especially during the summer season, and are fully adequate in winter to meet all traffic demands made upon them. The existing railway connections are fully adequate to meet all demands of present and prospective traffic. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 9 PENOBSCOT RIVER (BANGOR HARBOR), ME. The city of Bangor is situated on the west side of the Penobscot River, at the head of navigation, about 57 miles from the sea or about 27 miles from the mouth of the river, which is tidal to the dam about 1 mile above the business section of the city. The Ken- duskeag Stream, a tributary to the Penobscot, flows through the central part of the city and is navigable for about a quarter of a mile above its junction with the river. At Bangor the Penobscot River is spanned by a highway bridge and that section of the river extending from the bridge southerly for about 3 miles, together with the navigable part of Kenduskeag Stream, constitute Bangor Harbor. It is closed to navigation for about four months in the year owing to ice. About 14 miles of the river front on the west side lies in the town of Hampden, adjoining Bangor on the south. On the east side, about 2% miles of water front lies in the city of Brewer, Opposite Bangor, and about three-fourths mile lies in the town of Orrington, adjoining Brewer on the south. The existing project provides for dredging to a depth of 22 feet between Winterport and Bucksport, about 16 miles below Bangor; for straightening, widening, and deepening to 15 feet the channel near Sterns Mill and near Crosby's Narrows, from 3 to 4.5 miles below Bangor; for deepening to 5 feet the basin of the Kenduskeag River; and for deepening the harbor at Bangor to 14 feet and widen- ing it along the Bangor front, giving an additional width of from 100 to 300 feet for a length of about 2,000 feet. The project depths refer to mean low water, which is 3 feet above extreme low tide. The existing project was completed in 1913, providing a controlling depth of 14 feet at mean low water to the head of navigation at Bangor. The mean range of tide is 13.1 feet, with an extreme of about 15 feet. The commerce on Penobscot River for the year 1918 amounted to 310,062 tons, valued at $7,664,711. * The water-borne traffic in the Penobscot River is handled by medium-sized steamboats, sailing vessels, and barges having an aver- age draft of from 13 to 15 feet. Two turbine steamboats, 320 feet long and 40 feet beam, are operated between Bangor and Boston by the Eastern Steamship Corporation. These boats, however, did not run in 1918, owing to abnormal conditions caused by the war. Pas- sengers carried during the above year amounted to about 22,000, an exceptionally Small total, due to war conditions and the con- Sequent curtailment of the steamboat service. The average annual volume of passenger traffic has been upward of 50,000. The coal terminals on the west side of the Penobscot River at Bangor Harbor have, as a rule, modern and adequate facilities for handling cargoes of that commodity. The freight and passenger terminal of the Eastern Steamship Corporation is in excellent con- dition and is provided with adequate facilities to meet the demands of the present and prospective business requirements. The re- mainder of the water terminals in Bangor, however, with the ex- ception of the oil terminals, have few, if any, mechanical appliances, are of low efficiency, and in poor condition. Kenduskeag Stream is lined on both sides with practically continuous timber bulkheads 10 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. extending from its mouth up to the highway bridge, a distance of about one-fourth mile. These bulkheads, which formerly served Various business interests as wharves, are at present but little used. They have no mechanical appliances for the handling of freight and the berths are bare at low tide. On the east side of the river at Brewer, opposite Bangor, there is but one water terminal, a coal- handling plant, having mechanical appliances and adequate facili- ties. The remainder of the terminals at this locality are without such facilities and in poor condition. At South Brewer there is a large pulp and paper plant which has water connections. This plant is in good condition and has all necessary facilities pertain- ing to its business. r The port administration at Bangor Harbor is in charge of a har- bor commission appointed by the State, together with a harbor master who receives his appointment from the chamber of commerce, inspects entering vessels, directs their anchorage, and in general looks after navigation interests of the port. There are no port charges at Bangor Harbor. The city of Bangor owns three street ends on Kenduskeag Stream, at two of which vessels are permitted to lie and discharge cargoes free of charge. They have no mechani- cal appliances of any description and the berths are bare at low tide, which conditions make for very low efficiency. There are no publicly owned terminals having modern freight-handling appli- ances at Bangor Harbor, and this statement would apply to Brewer and to the Penobscot River in general. The majority of the water terminals at Bangor and Brewer are open to public use upon pay- ment of such charges as may be fixed by private agreement, and as the facilities provided for the handling of freight at these termi- nals apparently exceed the demands of present business, the neces- sity for a publicly owned water terminal having modern freight- handling appliances is not manifest at this time. The general interest shown in the improvement of terminal facili- ties, and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available, are confined principally to the coal handling and oil terminals and one passenger and freight wharf. Practically the bulk of the com- merce at Bangor Harbor is handled at these terminals and the interest shown in keeping them in repair and provided with ade- quate freight-handling appliances appear, to be fully commensurate with the demands of present and reasonably prospective business requirements. At the other water terminals, as a rule, but little interest is shown in water transportation, and but slight effort is made toward the utilization of the available navigation facilities. This condition may in no small degree be attributed to the great decline of the lumber industry at this port. In former years lumber formed the principal commodity of export, while at the present its amount is practically nothing. The Maine Central Railroad runs through Bangor, with branches running through Brewer to Bar Harbor and Bucksport. Connec- tion is also made at Northern Maine Junction, 6 miles west of Bangor, with the Bangor & Aroostook Railroad, running from this point southerly to Searsport on Penobscot Bay, and northerly to Houlton, Caribou, and Presque Isle. Practically all of the more important water terminals at Bangor are provided with railway con- WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 11 nection by means of spur tracks. There are none at Brewer, but the pulp and paper terminal at South Brewer has such connection. In view of the present nature and volume of water-borne traffic at Bangor Harbor, and taking into consideration the railway con- nections already available, the necessity or even desirability of addi- tional joint rail and water terminals is not manifest. ROCKLAND HARBOR, ME. Rockland Harbor is situated near the westerly entrance to Penob- scot Bay and about 80 miles northeast of Portland by water. The harbor entrance was exposed to a long reach of wind, and sea across Penobscot Bay, which condition during storms rendered it unsafe for vessels to use the anchorage or to approach or lie at the wharves. The existing project provides for a riprap breakwater extending about 4,346 feet southerly from Jameson Point, on the north side of the harbor entrance; dredging the inner harbor in the vicinity of the wharves to depths ranging from 4 to 13 feet at mean low tide; and removing two groups of ledges, one to 22 feet and the other to 14 feet at mean low tide. The project was completed in 1904 and has been of material aid in promoting the safety of navigation at this port. The harbor, which is provided with a naturally good anchorage ground, has a considerable area, 30 feet or more in depth at mean low tide, and about 1; square miles 12 feet or more in depth. The mean tidal range is 9.7 feet. - The water-borne traffic at this port for the year 1918 amounted to 272,336 tons, valued at $16,380,912. The lime shipments by water during the year 1918 were very small, due to the great difficulty in obtaining tugboats for towing the barges, practically the entire volume of this commodity being shipped by rail. Water-borne traffic at Rockland Harbor is handled by barges and sailing vessels having an average draft of from 10 to 14 feet. The passengers carried amounted in 1918 to about 50,000, being accom- modated by steamboats with an average draft of about 14 feet. Of the 15,000 feet of water front now developed, about 7,500 feet was originally improved to facilitate the shipment of lime and receipt of kiln wood and other supplies incidental to the lime indus- try. All of the plants for the burning and shipping of lime which are at present in operation have been consolidated in one company or syndicate with the result that a considerable number of water terminals, formerly used for this purpose, are now idle and aban- doned. There are four lime terminals at present in use. At one of these, however, the berthing facilities are so poor that practically no water- borne traffic is handled. Rockland Harbor has three marine rail- ways with capacities of 300, 400, and 700 tons, respectively. They are in good condition and ready for use at any time. There are five regular coal-handling terminals, one of which has modern facilities, while two of the other wharves have facilities for handling a small amount of this commodity. The other terminals are used to a limited extent and for various purposes with facilities which, while crude, are apparently equal to the demands of present business. 12 WATER TERMINAIA AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. In general it may be said that the freight-handling facilities of the water terminals at the port of Rockland, while apparently ade- quate for the handling of the present volume of traffic, are not ex- tensive and the port as a whole is developed to but a small percentage of its capacity. As there are a number of water terminals which are available to the public for the handling of passengers or freight, and as these terminals are fully adequate to meet the demands of present and any reasonable prospective business requirements, the necessity for a publicly owned terminal having modern freight-handling appliances does not appear at the present time. There is no present monopoly of the water front and apparently no danger of such in the future. The interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available are small, as is evidenced by the comparatively large number of unused and abandoned water terminals. This condition is probably due to the consolidation of the various lime interests in one syndicate and to the comparatively small amount of general commerce handled at this port. There is a railway running along the water front but it serves only the various terminals of the lime syndicate, and is used solely by the lime interests. One private coal terminal has railway connec- tions, the other wharves being without this convenience. In view of the present nature and volume of water-borne traffic handled, how- ever, it is doubtful whether railway connections at these wharves are required. GEORGES RIVER (THOMASTON HARBOR), ME. Georges River is about 80 miles northeast of Portland and about 4 miles west of Rockland, Me. The harbor includes that section of the river at and immediately below Thomaston, the head of practi- cal navigation, and is the location of work to be done under the existing project which provides for the restoration by dredging of the channel to its original project widths and depth as obtained by operations carried out in 1913, when a depth of 16 feet at mean low tide was secured. The mean range of tide is 9.3 feet. The commerce at Thomaston Harbor for the year 1918 amounted to 5,198 tons, valued at $379,000. This water-borne traffic is handled by sailing vessels and steamers having an average draft of 15 feet. In general it may be said that but little use is made of the terminal facilities at this port but, taking into consideration the comparatively small volume of traffic handled, the facilities are probably adequate for the demands. There are no publicly owned wharves and none appear to be needed at this port so long as present business condi- tions obtain, as the volume of traffic handled is small and the present terminals may be used by the public upon payment of reasonable wharfage charges should the necessity for such use arise. The interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available, while i. are probably fully commensurate with the amount of traffic handled. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 13 There is but one wharf at present in regular use. It is of pile platform construction, in good condition, and has adequate facilities for handling the present traffic requirements. Three other wharves, not in regular use, are in fair condition and could be made available should business conditions so demand. f Thomaston Harbor is not favored with railway connections. A branch line of the Maine Central Railroad runs through Thomaston to Rockland, but at such a high elevation above the Water front that such connections would not be practicable. RENNEBEC RIVER, ME. The Kennebec River, which is navigable from the Sea to Augusta, Me., a distance of about 44 miles, empties into the Atlantic Ocean about 28 miles east of Portland. The river is tidal to the dam at Augusta and is from 500 to 700 feet in width at this point. The existing project provides for a channel below Gardiner not less than 150 feet wide, with a depth of 17 feet at mean low tide at the foot of Swan Island, 18 feet deep at Lovejoy Narrows near the head of Swan Island, and 16 feet deep at Gardiner; a channel west of Swan Island, 100 feet wide and 12 feet deep with a depth of 15 feet at the upper shoal; and a channel 125 feet wide and 11 feet deep from Gardiner to Augusta, at the head of navigation. The work included dredging, rock excavation, and two riprap training walls. The project was completed in 1914. The controlling depths are 28 feet from the sea to Bath, 16 feet to Gardiner (if channel on west side of Swan Island is used this depth would be 12 feet), and 11 feet from Gardiner to Augusta. The mean tidal ranges are 8.3 feet at mouth of river, 6.5 feet at Bath, 5.5 feet at foot of Swan Island, 5 feet at Gardiner, and 4.1 feet at Augusta. - The commerce on the Kennebec River, as shown by statistics for 1918, amounted to 99,513 tons, valued at $1,625,377, and the total number of passengers carried was 445,871. Practically all the water-borne traffic on the Kennebec River is handled by barges with an average draft of from 9 to 16 feet, the passenger traffic being accommodated by river steamboats of an average draft of 8 feet. The water terminals on the Kennebec River for the most part are built parallel to the bank and project but little into the stream. Nearly all at present in use are of timber crib construction with earth or rock fill and in a generally good condition. At Augusta, the head of navigation on the Kennebec River, the water terminals are used principally for the handling of coal and lumber. In general they are in good condition and, while the un- loading facilities are of small capacity and not of modern design, they appear to fully meet the present business requirements which are comparatively small. The annual water-borne traffic at Augusta consists of about 21,250 tons of coal, 3,000 tons of lumber, and about 2,000 tons of miscellaneous freight, and this is handled almost en- tirely by barges having an average draft of from 9 to 12 feet. On the east side of the river at August is a small wharf owned by the State of Maine and formerly used for unloading coal consigned to the State Insane Hospital. This wharf has a rocky berth, is unsuit- 14 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. able for use by tug boats of any size, and has not been in operation for the past two years. There is no publicly owned terminal at Augusta and, taking into consideration the fact that a coal terminal and a passenger landing are open to public use and are able to handle the present traffic, the necessity for such a terminal does not appear. The interest taken in the improvement of terminal facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available are small, the present volume of water-borne traffic not being sufficient to war- rant any extensive water-front improvements. The Maine Central Railroad runs through Augusta, but at such a high elevation above the water terminals that connection between the two would not be practicable. This condition, together with the small depth of water at this port, would preclude the desirability of a joint rail and water terminal. At Hallowell, the next port below Augusta on the Kennebec River, the water terminals are used for the handling of coal, one being also used for passenger traffic. They are in good condition, with fairly efficient facilities, and appear to be fully equal to the present busi- ness requirements. - The water-borne traffic consists almost entirely of coal, about 5,000 tons of which was handled in 1918 by barges having an average draft of from 9 to 12 feet. The wharf at this port, owned by the Eastern Steamship Corpo- ration and formerly used for transfer of passengers and freight, is at present in very poor condition, portions of it being caved in and washed away. It is not in use. The city of Hallowell owns a small ferry slip, which is open to the public and which is used to some extent. The public wharf at this terminal is out of repair and in very poor condition, being almost entirely grown up with weeds and bushes. There appears to be no necessity for a publicly owned terminal having modern freight-handling appliances, the public requirements not being sufficient to demand the repair of the pres- ent wharf. These requirements are at present fully inet by the facilities available at those wharves which are open to public use. The main line of the Maine Central Railroad runs through Hallo- well, but the high elevation of its tracks prevent any practicable physical Connection with the water terminals. For this reason and also because of the comparatively small amount of water-borne traffic at this port, a combined rail and water terminal is not required. The interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available are small. but are probably commensurate with the volume of business handled. At Gardiner, about 6 miles south of Augusta, on the west side of the Kennebec River, the water terminals, with one exception, are used for the handling of coal. They are of timber-crib construction with sand or earth fill, and in from good to excellent condition, have efficient freight-handling facilities which are apparently ade- quate to meet present and prospective business requirements. The water-borne traffic consists mainly of coal, of which the terminals at this port handled some 24,000 tons in 1918 by means of barges hav- ing an average draft of from 10 to 16 feet. There is a small wharf at this port which is a public landing, the land adjacent to which is WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 15 owned by the street railway company. This wharf is in poor condition and is not used to any extent. In general it may be said that the water terminals at Gardiner are of high efficiency for the handling of coal, which is the principal commodity. The interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available, while confined almost wholly to the coal terminals, are probably as extensive as would be warranted by the present volume of business handled. The main line of the Maine Central Railroad runs through Gardi- ner, but at such a high elevation above the water front that railway connection with the water terminals is not practicable. At Randolph, situated on the east side of the Kennebec River about opposite Gardiner, the only water terminal at present in use is for handling coal. The volume of traffic is small, and there ap- pears to be no necessity for a publicly owned terminal at this port. The freight facilities appear to be fully adequate to meet present and prospective business requirements, and the interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities, together with the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available, while not extensive, are probably fully commensurate with the volume of business handled. There are no wharves at Randolph of more than average importance. . At Richmond, on the west side of the Kennebec River, about 17 miles south of Augusta and 12 miles north of Bath, the water ter- minals are used for the handling of coal, some 2,500 tons of which was received in 1918 by barges having an average draft of from 10 to 14 feet. They are of timber-crib construction with earth fill and may be considered as being in fair condition. The freight- handling facilities at the coal terminals of Richmond, while not elaborate, appear to meet present requirements, which are Small. The interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available are practically nil, as is evidenced from the fact that at Richmond there are 13 wharves, only 2 of which are in use, the remainder being for the most part complete wrecks. There is a small town landing or public terminal with a floating stage at which motor boats some- times land. The wharf owned by the Eastern Steamship Corpora- tion is in very poor condition and not at present in use. e At Bath, on the west side of the Kennebec River and 13 miles above its mouth, there are some 15 water terminals at present in use. They are nearly all of timber crib construction with earth fill and in good condition. The majority are used for the handling of coal and the facilities provided for this purpose appear, on the whole, to meet present and reasonably, prospective requirements. The principal item of water-borne traffic is coal, about 48,000 tons of which was handled here in 1918 by means of barges having an aver- age draft of 14 feet. The coal-handling facilities in general com- prise. A frames, operating buckets by power furnished by steam hoisting engines on lighters. There are two ferries operating be: tween Bath on the west side of the river and Woolwich on the east side, one being used for teams and passengers and the other being the Maine Central Railroad ferry, engaged in the transfer of passen- ger and freight trains across the river. At each of these ferry termi- 16 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. nals there are the necessary mechanical appliances for landing or taking on passengers and freight at any stage of the tide. There are two passenger and freight terminals, together with a town landing which is also used for this purpose. The facilities for handling coal appear fully adequate, and as there is a public town landing which is open to free use by the pub- lic and also a combined freight and passenger terminal which is open to all, the necessity of a publicly-owned terminal having modern freight handling appliances does not appear. There is a considerable portion of the water front at Bath which is occupied and used for ship building, with yards which, while well equipped and efficient for that use, are not available to the general public for terminal and transfer purposes. t PORTLAND HARBOR, ME. The city of Portland, Me., the commercial part of which is on a peninsula extending in a northeasterly direction into Casco Bay, lies about 110 miles by water northeast from Boston, Mass. It is the |United States port nearest to Europe and is the terminus of the Grand Trunk Railway, the Maine Central, and Boston & Maine Railroads. Portland Harbor, considered as a whole, is made up of three parts: (a) The main or inner harbor, lying on the southerly side and at the eastern end of the peninsula, and having a water frontage of about 2% miles; (b) Fore River, also on the southerly side of the peninsula, extending westerly from the main harbor (from which it is separated by Portland Bridge), for about 1% miles; (c) Back Cove, which lies on the northerly side of the peninsula, nearly landlocked, approxi- mately circular in form, about 1 mile in diameter and having a narrow bottle-necked entrance. It has a present available water frontage of about 1% miles. The total water frontage of the harbor, inclusive of South Portland, is about 8% miles. The mean tidal range is 8.9 feet. Portland Harbor is naturally well protected by several islands and by Cape Elizabeth. This protection has been augmented by the construction by the Federal Government of a breakwater which aids in the shelter of the main harbor. There is a large anchorage ground having a natural depth of 30 feet or more at mean low tide, the area of which has been further increased by dredging. The en- trance channel to Back Cove carries a depth of 30 feet at mean low tide up to the Grank Trunk Railway bridge; a depth of 14 feet at mean low tide is available from Grand Trunk to Tukeys bridge, and thence a channel depth of 12 feet at mean low tide is carried to the wharves at the southwestern end of Back Cove. Fore River has a mean low tide depth of 30 feet from Portland bridge up to the bridge of the Boston & Maine Railroad (western division). It is crossed in its navigable portion by three drawbridges. The river and harbor act of August 8, 1917, authorized the removal to a depth of 40 feet at mean low tide of two obstructing ledges, one in the main ship channel near House Island, and the other outside of Port- land Head light; also the dredging to 35 feet at mean low tide of a channel a little over a mile long and about 1,100 feet wide, extending WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 17 from deep water up the harbor past the lower wharves, the width op- posite the latter increasing from 1,700 to 1,900 feet.

With a few exceptions the terminals and trans- fer facilities are not of marked efficiency, and their development has not kept pace with improvements made by the Federal Govern- ment. The bulk of the water front at Portland and South Portland is by no means efficiently used for terminal purposes. The majority of the slips between piers are shoal and narrow, which latter con- dition is the frequent cause of traffic congestion. The railroad coal handling terminals are considered to be of high efficiency and capable of handling both the present and any reasonable prospective traffic, and the mercantile coal terminals, while of moderate effi- ciency, seem adequate to meet present requirements. The passenger terminals, outside of the Grand Trunk Railway piers, may be said to be of moderate efficiency. The general business terminals, as a rule, have few or no mechanical appliances for the handling of 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—2 18 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. freight and suffer a corresponding loss of efficiency. The rail termi- nals are considered as being of high efficiency. - There are no facilities at Portland Harbor for the extensive repair of transatlantic ships, the harbor being without dry docks and hav- ing no marine railways of sufficient capacity for this class of work. These ships are coaled at their berths by a lighter which lies along- side, the coal being hoisted from lighter to ship by means of clam- shell buckets operated by a steam hoisting engine on the lighter. The operation of coaling is carried on while the ship is discharging or loading, and, as a rule, does not affect the time of turn around. The geographical location of Portland Harbor, the volume and nature of its commerce, its comparative nearness to European ports, together with the excellent railroad connections, and the fact that it possesses no pier Suitable for overseas commerce or important coast- wise traffic which is open to all ships and transportation interests on equal terms, tend to emphasize the desirability of a publicly owned water terminal at this port. The necessity of such a terminal has been recognized by the State and it is at present under consideration. In furtherance of this project a State Harbor Commission was created in accordance with the following resolve: RESOLVE PROVIDING FOR A COMMISSION TO INVESTIGATE THE ADVISABILITY OF MAKING IMPROVEMENTS IN PORTLAND HARBOR—COMMISSION CREATED TO INVESTI- GATE CONDITION OF PORTLAND HARBOR. Resolved: SEC. 1. That the governor, with the advice and consent of the Council be, and he hereby is, authorized and directed to appoint a COmmission consisting of five persons, to investigate the condition of Portland Harbor and report to the next session of the legislature its recommendations relative to the advisability of the State, or the city of Portland, constructing and building into the tide waters of said harbor, a State or municipal dock; and such further legislation respecting the control thereof, as said commission may deem necessary and advisable for the public interests. SEC. 2. Commission to serve without pay : The members of the commission hereby created, shall serve without Compensation. SEC. 3. Survey not to be made unless so directed : Said Commission shall not make, nor cause to be made, any survey of the navigable waters of said harbor, unless, upon application to the governor and Council, the latter shall de- termine that the Surveys made by the United States are not sufficient for the purposes herein Contemplated, and give directions for such further surveys to be made. Approved, March 16, 1917. Acting under the above resolve, the commission engaged the services of engineers to investigate the conditions and made the fol- lowing recommendations: - First. That the State of Maine construct a pier into the tide waters of Port- land Harbor at a site selected and recommended by the engineers. The pier, the freight sheds and railroad connections, as specifically explained in Appen- dix L., Engineers’ report, shall be built, controlled, and operated by the Harbor Board. The Harbor Board shall be appointed by the governor and Council and shall be invested with the necessary authority to properly conduct the business of said board. Second. That to meet the expense for the construction of such a pier and terminal facilities, the State legislature authorize the issue of $1,150,000 in bonds to expire at such times as may be deemed wise and expedient. Third. As this commission feels that certain special advantages would accrue to the city of Portland through the location of a State pier into the tidewaters of Portland Harbor, and in order that there may be a more complete and perfect cooperation and coordination between city and State, it WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 19 recommends that the building of this pier and the issuance of bonds in pay- ment thereof, as stated above, be conditional upon the furnishing by the City of Portland of a site for the said pier and railroad connections, Without ex- pense to the State of Maine. The report of the engineers recommended the construction of a pier something over 1,000 feet in length, to be a pile structure using either creosoted yellow-pine piles or oak piles with concrete con- struction above high water. Recommendation was made for a pier of sufficient strength to provide for the ultimate construction of a two-story pier shed. Provision is made for a platform between the shed and the slip about 10 feet in width and on the other side of the shed a depressed platform carrying two railway tracks. The slip is recommended to extend the entire length of the pier with a width of over 100 feet and a depth of at least 30 feet at mean low tide. A one-story wooden pier shed 500 feet long and 90 feet wide is recom- mended for initial construction. The cost, inclusive of site, is esti- mated to be $1,500,000. The location recommended is near the west- ern end of the main harbor, is easily accessible both by rail and water and has an approach channel with a present depth of 30 feet at mean low tide, and not only provides room for immediate develop- ment but also for future extension. The terminal of the Grand Trunk Railway is the principal one at Portland Harbor and consists of a combined rail and water coal- handling plant at East Deering, at the entrance to Back Cove, and four piers at the easterly end of the main harbor. Three of these piers are used for both passenger and freight traffic, the fourth or most westerly one being for bulk freight only. The coal-handling plant is of not more than average importance. That part of the Grand Trunk Railway terminal devoted to the handling of com- bined freight and passenger traffic comprises three piers at the eastern end of the main harbor. They are of the pile platform type of construction, in uniformly good condition, affording by means of six slips a dockage of about 3,000 feet, and by using the berths across the ends of the piers this is increased to about 4,000 feet, with an available depth of from 30 to 35 feet at mean low tide. Package freight is handled by the ship's winches and booms and by two wheeled hand trucks on the piers. There are no cargo masts or other mechanical appliances for the handling of this class of freight. This method, in so far as it re- lates to the handling of freight on the pier itself, is slow, wasteful of labor, and expensive. As these piers are in use but about six months out of the year, however, the installation of modern freight-handling devices is of doubtful expediency. The business requirements at this terminal have, however, somewhat outgrown the facilities afforded. The deepening of the harbor has resulted in the use of larger ships, some of which when berthed at the slips of this termi- nal extend out into the harbor beyond the head of the piers, this condition not only being a source of extra expense with relation to freight in the after hold, but also of danger to the ship itself. These piers may be lengthened when desired, subject to approval of the Federal Government. The three piers used for combined passenger and freight traffic are practically covered by transfer sheds of wooden construction which have a combined floor area available for 20 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. freight storage of about 300,000 square feet. Protection from fire is provided by an efficient watchman inspection system, by monitor nozzles within each shed, and by a highly efficient pumping plant having two steam-driven pumps with a combined capacity of 2,000 gallons per minute. The bulk freight handled at these piers consists entirely of outbound grain, for which the loading facilities, com- prising elevators, conveyors, and discharging chutes, are excellent and of high efficiency. There are two elevators, interconnected, with a combined capacity of 2,300,000 bushels, with six steam operated elevated belt conveyors extending the entire length of each slip and having a capacity of from 14,000 to 16,000 bushels per hour each. The facilities at these piers are used under rates approved by the Interstate Commerce Commission. When shipping is over Grand Trunk Railway, no wharfage charges are made; team-handled freight, however, would incur such charges. The passenger accommodations at this terminal appear fully ade- quate to meet present requirements. The fourth or most westerly of the Grand Trunk piers is an un- covered pile platform, the greater part of which is in good condition. It has about 600 feet of available dockage, with 18 feet of water at mean low tide in use at present; while, by making necessary repairs to the pier, an additional 500 feet of dockage would become available, with, however, a shoaler depth of water. This pier is used almost exclusively for the transshipment of copper ore from rail to water carriers. It is provided with a raised platform, the top of which is at the level of the car floors, and with hinged loading stages; but has no mechanical appliances, the ore being loaded on barrows at the cars, wheeled by hand across the platform onto the stages, and dumped into the hold of the vessel or barge lying alongside. From 5,000 to 10,000 tons of this ore are handled per month. The facilities af- forded at this pier are crude and the method at present in use for ore handling is slow and expensive, but is probably adequate to meet requirements of the present volume of traffic. All four of the piers comprising the freight and passenger terminal of the Grand Trunk Railway have excellent railway connections by means of spur tracks. Connection is also made with a belt line owned by the Portland Terminal Co., which runs entirely around the commercial part of the city and by means of which connection is had with all local railroads. This belt line is used under conditions and rates established by the Interstate Commerce Commission. Transoceanic traffic which is carried over lines of the Grand Trunk Railway is interchanged between rail and water carriers at this terminal on through bills of lading and tickets. This arrangement is the result of an agreement between the railway and steamship companies, the through rates being fixed by each carrier adding to its own charges the known rates of the other in effect at that time. This interchange applies only to traffic which is carried for a part of its journey over the Grand Trunk lines, all other traffic being rebilled at Portland. The Grand Trunk freight and passenger terminal is provided with adequate connection with improved highways. The coal-handling plant at East Deering has no highway connection; this being a strictly rail and water terminal, no such connection is required. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2l The Portland Terminal Co. has two coal-handling plants, one hav- ing a capacity of 480 tons and the other of 300 tons per hour. They are in good condition and considered of fair efficiency. . . . Other terminals at Portland Harbor do not possess any distinctive or especially interesting features. SACO RIVER, ME. The navigable portion of the Saco River, the mouth of which is about 16 miles southwest of Portland Harbor, Me., is about 5 miles in length and forms the approach to and harbor of the cities of Saco and Biddeford, situated on the east and west sides, respectively, at the head of navigation. The river carries a least depth of 7 feet at mean low tide throughout the navigable part, except on the bar at the mouth, where the depth is only about 5 feet, with a minimum width between banks at Saco and Biddeford of about 200 feet, in- creasing in places below the head of navigation to about 1,000 feet. The mean range of tide is 8.8 feet. - The existing project provides for a channel depth of 7 feet at mean low tide from the sea to the head of navigation, a riprap breakwater about 4,200 feet long on the north side and a jetty of similar construction about 4,800 feet in length on the South side of the mouth of the river. This project was completed in 1914, with the exception of the depth across the bar, which has not yet been secured, the depth available at present being about 5 feet. The commerce at this locality for the calendar year 1918 con- sisted entirely of coal, amounting to 37,627 tons, valued at $365,840. The vessels used are for the most part small barges with an aver- age draft of 10 feet, 37 of which entered and left the river during 1918. The passenger traffic during this period was handled by small motor boats, and the number of passengers carried amounted to about 5,000. The efficiency of the terminal as a whole is low, but the volume of water-borne traffic is so small that the installation of modern freight- handling appliances would be of doubtful expediency, the present facilities being adequate to meet present and prospective require- ments. The wharves are privately owned, but as there is a large undeveloped water front the danger of a monopoly of terminal facilities is negligible. The interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities is small, as are also the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available. This condition, however, is directly traceable to the small volume of traffic handled. PORTSMOUTH HARBOR, N. H. AND ME. Portsmouth, N. H., is situated on the west side of the Piscataqua River, about 57 miles west of Portland and about 4% miles from the sea. The main navigable part of the river, extending from the drawbridge at Portsmouth to the sea, forms Portsmouth Harbor. It lies between Portsmouth and New Castle, N. H., on the west, and Kittery, Me., on the east, is very deep, with generally more than 50 22 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. feet at mean low tide, and is subject to swift tidal currents. About 3 miles below Portsmouth are the anchorage grounds, consisting of a stretch of the river about 1 mile long and one-half mile wide, with from 48 to 70 feet of water at mean low tide. The mean range of tide is 8.7 feet at the mouth of the river and 7.8 feet at the upper end of the harbor. All projects for improvement of Portsmouth Harbor by the Fed- eral Government have been completed and have consisted in the main of breakwater construction and removal of submarine ledges. The general character and extent of the commerce handled at this port are indicated by the following abstract of commercial statistics for 1918: ArticleS. * Short tons. Value.

The passenger traffic is served by medium-sized steamboats of combined freight-and-passenger type. Fifteen hundred and forty-four steam- ers, 2,618 sailing vessels, and 504 barges arrived at and departed from Portsmouth during calendar year 1918. The number of pas- sengers carried amounted to over 755,000. The majority of the water terminals at Portsmouth Harbor used for commercial purposes lie on the Portsmouth side of the harbor and within 1 mile or less of the drawbridge. The most prevalent type is the pile platform, a few being earth fill, held by timber bulk- heads or masonry walls. The condition of those terminals which are at present in use ranges from fair to good. The facilities af- forded by the coal-handling terminals, exceed the demands made upon them, and may be considered as highly efficient. The remain- ing terminals in use have either crude or no facilities in the way of mechanical appliances, but owing to the comparatively small amount of business handled apparently meet present requirements. The bulk of the commerce at Portsmouth Harbor consists of coal. As there is already an efficient coal-handling terminal at this port, which is open to all on equal terms and affords adequate facilities for present and any reasonable prospective demands, and as the city of Portsmouth now owns one pier, which is in excellent condition and open to the public free of charge, the necessity of additional publicly owned terminals is not manifest. The interest shown in the improvement of harbor facilities, and the effort made to utilize the navigation facilities available, while not extensive, are probably commensurate with the requirements of the volume of water-borne traffic handled. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 23 . The water connections appear adequate to meet all demands of present traffic, while the existing railroad facilities exceed the re- quirements. - r The general efficiency of this port, considered as a whole, may be said to exceed the requirements of present business. There being practically no outbound traffic, the utilization of the existing fa- cilities is restricted to less than capacity. . t - The foregoing remarks do not take into consideration the equip- ment of the navy yard at Kittery. s WATER, TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. BOSTON, MASS., DISTRICT. COL. FRANCIS R. SHUNK CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. NEWBURYPORT HARBOR, MAss. Newburyport Harbor is improved by jetties, with a view to obtain- ing an entrance channel 1,000 feet wide and 17 feet deep at mean low water. Dredging is to be resorted to if necessary. The present available depth is 15.8 feet at mean low water. The range of tide is 7.8 feet. Because of wave action, barges drawing 15 feet can enter only at the higher stages of the tide. The normal commerce of the port before the war was about 180,000 tons, valued at about $900,000. The harbor is used chiefly for the receipt of coal, most of which is reshipped to inland points. Petroleum is next in importance. There are in Newburyport eight wharves worthy of mention, a few Others being ruinous and abandoned. Of these, six are for receipt and storage of coal, one for receipt and storage of fish, and one for receipt and storage of oil. These eight wharves are described on the forms here with. They are stone and timber bulkheads with solid fill. The depth of water beside the wharves varies from 8 to 16 feet. Two of them have railroad connection by spurs from the Boston & Maine Railroad, and two are so situated that spurs could easily be provided. Four are not accessible by railroad. All have good highway connections. None are for public use. In case of need a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of the existing wharves. - - Freight is handled by hoisting cranes and suitable containers, such as clamshell buckets and the like. Arrangements for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. The port is under control of a harbor master appointed by the municipality. There are no port charges. There are no municipal wharves at Newburyport, and apparently no demand for them. The existing wharves occupy a small part of the available water front, and there is ample room §, new wharves, private or public, should such be desired. The terminal facilities are adequate. There is no immediate need of public wharves. The most important terminal at this port is that of the Philadel- phia & Reading Coal & Iron Co. This has a water front 590 feet long, available for vessels, and a depth of 16 feet alongside. There is good railroad connection with the Boston & Maine Railroad. Transfer of coal is effected by means of a steam tower and overhead tramways. The handling capacity is 800 tons per day and the storage capacity 3,000 tons. Nothing further appears to call for comment. 69 70 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. MERRIMACK RIVER, MASS. The United States has constructed and maintains a channel 150 feet wide and 7 feet deep at low water (14.9 to 12.1 feet at mean high water). It is used chiefly for the transportation of coal, most of which is transshipped from Newburyport. Along this channel there are 10 wharves worthy of notice, not including a few unimportant structures seldom visited. These 10 are described on the forms here with. Eight of these wharves are at Haverhill, which is the chief port on the improved channel. Before the war its normal commerce was about 82,000 short tons, valued at $488,000. The port of Haverhill is divided into two portions by a highway bridge at Bridge Street, which is provided with a draw. Most of the wharves are below this bridge. The wharves are, with the exception of one unimportant structure, bulkhead structures with solid fill. Only one of these wharves, that of the Haverhill Box Board Co., has railroad connec– tion. Seven of these wharves are for receipt of coal, and one for receipt and storage of oil. All are easily accessible from the streets. All are privately owned and are not available for public use. There are adequate facilities for coaling and watering. The port is under the control of a harbor master appointed by the municipality. There are no port charges. - There are no municipal wharves at Haverhill. Since the com- merce consists chiefly of the import of coal consigned to firms who own wharves, there appears to be at present no need of public ter- minals. In the upper part of the harbor above the highway bridge there is a length of 2,500 feet of bulkhead, of which the city owns about 300 feet. It is expected that this bulkhead will be developed for commercial purposes as need arises, and a municipal wharf could be provided if it were desired. The terminal facilities are adequate for the existing commerce. None of the terminals at Haverhill appear to call for special description. HARBOR OF REFUGE AT SANDY BAY, CAPE ANN, MASS. (ROCKPORT HARBOR.) This harbor is not intended for commercial purposes. A break- water has been built which provides a sheltered area, the depth of water being about 60 feet. Mean range of tide is 8.8 feet. In the harbor there are only three wharves worthy of notice—a bulkhead with solid fill belonging to the Story Fish Co., and two granite piers, the property of the Rockport Granite Co.—one for receipt and storage of fish, and two for storage and shipment of the products of the granite quarries. All are privately owned and are not open to the general public. . None have railroad connection. All have adequate highway connections. The arrangements for coaling and watering are satisfactory. There are no port charges. At this place, from the nature of the case, there are no municipal wharves and no need of them. None of the existing structures appear to require special description. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACITITIES. 71 GLOUCESTER HARBOR, MASS. Gloucester Bay is a natural harbor. The work of the United States has been confined to building a breakwater and removing rock ledges and bowlders. In the outer harbor there is ample room for anchorage in depths of 25 feet and more. In the inner harbor the depth of water is also good, but since most of the boats which come to Gloucester are of light draft there is seldom more than 15 feet at mean low water alongside the wharves. Gloucester is a fishing port. The large majority of vessels using it are engaged in the fishing business, and much of the other business of the port depends directly upon the fishing industry. Mean range of tide is 8.9 feet. There are in Gloucester 44 wharves worthy of mention. (NOTE.- As this number differs materially from that given in the report of the Chief of Engineers, I would state that a special examination has been made for the present purpose, and it is found that many of the so-called wharves are not really worthy of that name and have no usefulness worth speaking about.) They are of bulkhead and pile construction. Of these, 30 are used entirely by fishing vessels of light draft; five are attached to establishments for the repair and fit- ting out of vessels; four are for the receipt and delivery of coal and wood; one for receipt and storage of gasoline; one for receipt and storage of lumber and bricks; one for miscellaneous freight and pas- senger business; and two are owned by the city and used for miscel- laneous purposes. The normal commerce is about 250,000 tons, val- ued roughly at $6,500,000, and 35,000 passengers. The depth beside the wharves varies from 0 to 18 feet at mean low water. None of these wharves have any connection with the railroad. They are all accessible by road. All of the wharves but two are privately owned and not available to the public. Coal is handled by steam-operated towers and derricks; fish is handled by power cranes. Facilities for coaling and watering are adequate. A large percentage of the vessels are sailing boats not in need of such supplies. The port is under control of a harbor master appointed by the municipality. There are no port charges. There are two wharves owned by the city of Gloucester called the town landings. These are stone retaining walls with solid fill and are in fair to good condition. The total length of the public wharfage is 290 feet and these terminals are adequate to the demands made upon them. They are open to use of the public without charge. The depth of water beside them is 0 feet at mean low water (8.9 feet at mean high water), so that they are not much used by vessels of any size. There is ample room for new wharfage space, public or private, should it be needed. In my opinion, the terminal facilities are adequate All of the wharves are of very ordinary type and none appear to call for special mention. - BEVERLY HARBOR, MAss. The United States has constructed and maintains at Beverly a channel 18 feet deep at mean low water from deep water to the highway bridge called Essex Bridge. A new project has been adopted for a channel 24 feet deep and 200 feet wide, in a better location. Work upon this project has not yet been begun. It will probably materially modify the situation with respect to wharves 72 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. and terminals. On the water front of Beverly there are 8 wharves of bulkhead and pile construction worthy of mention, with a few others of less importance. These wharves are described on the forms here with. There are 5 coal wharves, 2 lumber, and an oil wharf. The depth of water beside them varies from 0 to 27 feet at mean low water. Two of them—those of the Gulf Refining Co. and the New England Fuel & Transportation Co.—have railway connection by spurs from the Boston & Maine Railroad. All are accessible by good highways. All but one are privately owned and none open to the public. I am informed that a vessel could undoubtedly find accommodation at one of the existing wharves at a reasonable charge. Before the war, the normal commerce of Beverly Harbor was about 460,000 short tons, valued at about $3,630,000. Mean range of tide is 9 feet. Coal is handled by steam-operated towers and overhead tramways. In that part of the Bass River above the improved channel there are other wharves, not here mentioned, which are not affected by the existing or proposed improvement. Arrangements for coaling and watering are very good. The port is under control of a harbor master appointed by the municipality. There are no port charges. There are at present no municipal wharves at Beverly. There is a small whalf, in poor condition, owned by the city of Salem and used, until recently, for receipt of supplies to the water department. It was not open to the general public and is now leased to a private firm. The adoption of the new project was made contingent upon the provision of suitable public wharves by the municipality. Steps are being taken looking to their construction. It is my opinion that the terminal facilities at Beverly are adequate for the present needs of commerce. They will probably not be adequate when the new channel is completed, but there is sufficient room for the con- struction of such additional wharves as may be needed. The public terminals to be constructed in compliance with the terms of the project will be sufficient for a number of years. None of the wharves at Beverly appear to call for special descrip- tion. - SALEM HARBOR, MASS. The United States has constructed and maintains a channel 200 to 300 feet wide and 10 feet deep at low water, for the purpose of giving access to the mouth of South River in Salem. South River has been improved by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to a depth of 8 feet at mean low water. Before the war, the normal commerce of Salem was about 90,000 short tons, valued at $400,000. On the water front of Salem there are 7 wharves, which are described On the accompanying forms. Six are coal wharves; one is for oil. Only two, those of the Philadelphia & Reading Coal & Iron Co. and the Lehigh & Wilkesbarre Coal Co., have railroad connection. All but one have suitable highway connection. All are privately owned and are not for public use. In case of need, a vessel could probably find accommodation at reasonable charges at one of the existing wharves. Mean range of tide is 9.0 feet. The arrangements for coaling and watering are good. The port is under control of a harbor master appointed by the municipality. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 73 There are no port charges. There are at present no municipal wharves at Salem. There has been apparently no demand as yet for publicly owned terminals. The existing facilities meet all the needs of the present commerce. - The most important wharf is that of the Philadelphia & Reading Coal & Iron Co. This is on the west shore of Salem Harbor and is used for the receipt and storage of coal. It is a pile pier with a total of 1,107 feet frontage available for vessels. The depth of water alongside is 20 feet at mean low water, at the pierhead on either side 20 feet, diminishing to 13 feet nearing the shore. This wharf has a spur connection with the Boston & Maine Railroad and has no highway connection. It is provided with four fixed coal hoists operated by steam for unloading from vessels either directly to cars or to storage, and has covered coal pockets with chutes for loading railroad cars. Its handling capacity is 1,000 tons per day; its storage capacity is 30,000 tons. There appear to be no novel features, and nothing further is deemed worthy of remark. LYNN HARBOR, MASS. Lynn Harbor, about 10 miles north of Boston, is a small bay between the main coast and the peninsula of Nahant. The United States has constructed and maintains in Lynn Harbor a channel 300 feet wide and 15 feet deep at mean low water from the outer waters to the wharves. The mean range of tide is 9.2 feet. The normal business of the port is about 390,000 tons, roughly valued at about $1,800,000. The harbor is used chiefly for the receipt of coal. There are in Lynn Harbor 10 wharves of bulkhead and pile construction more or less affected by the Federal improvement. These are de- scribed on the forms herewith. The depth of water beside them varies from 0 to 17 feet at mean low water. Of these 10 wharves, 8 are chiefly for the receipt of coal and 2 are lumber wharves. One of these wharves, that of the General Electric Co., has railroad con- nection by a spur of the Boston & Maine Railroad. All have adequate access by highway. None are for public use. If necessity should arise, a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of the existing wharves. Handling devices at the coal wharves comprise towers and derricks operated by steam, and an electric crane at the General Electric Co. Arrangements for coaling and watering are good; the port is under control of a harbor master appointed by the municipality. There are no port charges. There are two municipal wharves at Lynn, but not in use at present except for storage of street material. Since most of the commerce is in freight consigned to firms who are wharf Owners, there appears to be no immediate demand for public termi- nals. There is a considerable length of bulkheaded water front available for additional wharves. In my opinion the terminal facili- ties are adequate. No terminal at Lynn appears to call for special discussion. BOSTON HARBOR, MASS. Boston has a large outer harbor about 47 square miles in area with ample anchorage and a good inner harbor with large development of water front, about 64 miles. The United States has provided a channel 35 feet deep at mean low water and 1,200 to 1,500 feet wide '74 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. from deep water outside through Broad Sound to the interior harbor, and as far up as the navy yard to Charlestown, including the lower portions of the Chelsea and Charles Rivers. Auxiliary channels communicating with the main channel–Fort Point Channel, Chelsea Creek, Mystic and Malden Rivers—extend into tributary streams or inlets. A project has been adopted providing for a channel 40 feet deep from the sea to the outer harbor, and for increasing the dimen- sions of certain secondary channels. The tidal range is 9.6 feet in the inner harbor. The foreign commerce of the port before the war was about 2,225,000 short tons, valued at about $200,000,000. It is greatly to be regretted that statistics as to the coastwise commerce, which is undoubtedly very large, have hitherto not been available. After consulting the records of the port commission of Massachusetts, I give it as my opinion that the total commerce of the whole port of Boston, foreign and domestic, aggregates about 15,000,000 tons annually. In normal times its value is not less than $1,000,000,000. The commerce of a port of this size can only be described as miscel- laneous, including all classes of commodities. There is no one par- ticular line in which Boston is eminent. The water front falls naturally into several sections: East Boston, Charlestown, City Front, South Boston, Fort Point Channel, Reserved Channel, Chelsea Creek, Charles River, Mystic River, and Malden River. East Boston front, on 35-foot chammel.-There are at East Boston 42 wharves, all bulkhead or pile construction. They are described on the forms herewith. Four of these are used for foreign commerce and one for foreign and domestic. Of the remaining 37, four are not commercial wharves, being used by the naval training station, and for the accommodation of naval vessels and berth of fire boats. Nine are coal wharves, six lumber wharves, six used in the fishing industry, six for shipbuilding repairs and tying up of vessels, three ferry ter- minals, one for the paint business, one warehouse for wool, cotton, etc., and one for miscellaneous coastwise freight. Nine of ſhe wharves, the most important, have railroad connections. The others, used for fishing boats, for receipt of coal and lumber and their distribution by water or by truck, are without railroad connection by spur, having no need of them. The depth alongside the wharves varies from 5 to 40 feet at mean low water. All the important wharves have ample depths for their purposes. All have good highway connections. Of the wharves used for trans-Atlantic business, one, the State pier, owned by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, will be when com- pleted open to the public on payment of rental. It is expected that #. of this pier will be permanently granted or leased to steamer ines and that the rest will be available for occasional cargoes. The railroads bring freight to their piers, both for liners and for other vessels. Any vessel calling for cargo is accommodated at the pier without charge. The two national docks are open to the public upon payment of rental. Some space is permanently rented, some is available for occasional vessels. Two of the wharves in East Boston are owned by the city of Boston. Both are used for public ferries; one has a berth for a municipal fire boat. The most important terminal in East Boston is that of the Boston & Albany Railroad, known as the Grand Junction Wharves. There are five piers, num- bered from 2 to 6, inclusive, No. 1 having been disposed of to the H. Doc. 652, 66-2.

Pier No. 2 is 600 feet long and 200 feet wide, covered with a single-story freight shed. The total available floor space is 113,181 square feet. Freight is moved by hand trucks. In rear of this pier are one 7-story fireproof warehouse with 42 rooms, one granite storehouse, four stories, with eight rooms, and One single- story warehouse. The total floor space available for storage is 243,130 square feet. Pier No. 3 is 780 feet long and 240 feet wide. It is occupied by a 2-story freight shed, the total floor space being 226,488 square feet. This pier has also on the second floor accommodation for first and second class passengers, quarters for customs offices, etc. Freight is moved by elevators and hand trucks. Pier No. 4 is 780 feet long and 240 feet wide. It is occupied by a freight shed having room for two stories, but the floor of .. second story is not yet laid. The total available floor space is 166,344 square feet. . The second story will afford 54,400 square feet additional. Freight is moved by hand trucks. Pier No. 5 is an open pier not yet completed. When finished it will be 780 feet long and 205 feet wide. The available floor space now complete is 21,564 square feet. Pier No. 6 is 400 feet long and 100 feet wide. This pier is for the handling and storage of coal and grain. The coal is stored in pockets and handled by clam-shells and cable cars all operated by steam. The grain elevator is 269 feet long, 185 feet high, and 73 feet wide, with a capacity of 1,000,000 bushels. Its machinery is electrically operated. Piers 2, 3, 4, and 5 have on each side galleries containing electric- ally operated belt conveyors for grain. . . Charlestown front—Om, 35-foot channel.—On the Charlestown front there are 23 wharves, of which 13 are those of the United States navy yard. Of the 10 commercial wharves 9 are the piers of the Boston & Maine Railroad. The remaining one is owned by a sand and plaster dealer. . These are of bulkhead and pile construction and are described on the forms herewith. All of the wharves have railroad connection and all are accessible by highway. Depths alongside vary from 15 to 35 feet at mean low water. The railroad wharves have ample accommodations for their business, hoisting devices, conveyors, etc., which do not appear to call for special description. The piers are not open to the public except that any vessel having business with the railroad may lie at the railroad wharves without charge. City front—On 35-foot channel.-On this part of the water front there are 24 wharves, of bulkhead and pile construction, described on the forms herewith. . The depth of water beside them varies from 9 to 31 feet. One of these is a lumber wharf, one a coal wharf, and on One coal is received and electric power generated for the elevated rail- road. Two are railroad piers, and two are ferry slips. Eleven are for general shipping business. These are mostly very large wharves, used by several concerns at the same time. They include the termi- nals of the United Fruit Co., trading with Central and South America, and the Eastern Steamship Corporation, with an extensive business in the northeastern United States. Of the remaining wharves four are owned by the city of Boston but not used for general or for public commercial purposes. One is the harbor police wharf, one the fire department wharf, one is used by boats of the penal and pauper estab- 76 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. lishments of the city and on the other supplies are delivered for the Boston paving department. The United States Navy has the use of two wharves. Seven of these wharves have belt railroad connection with all lines. On the others such connection could easily be installed if it were desired. All have good highway connection. . At four of the commercial wharves, space is available to all vessels on equal terms on payment of wharfage. At all of these wharves the terminal facilities appear to be adequate. Hoisting and transferring appli- ances are installed so that vessels can be easily and rapidly unloaded and loaded. No terminal on this part of the water front appears to call for special description. South Boston front—on 35-foot channel.—In this part of the water front there are seven wharves and one dry dock. Of these, the dry dock and three wharves are, or will be, used by the United States Navy. Of the remaining four, three are railroad piers of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, and one—Commonwealth Pier No. 6, owned by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts—is used for the fishing business. The depth of water at these wharves varies from 35 to 40 feet at mean low water. All of these wharves have plenty of water for their purposes. All have railroad connections by spur from the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, and all have good highway connections. The dry dock is not yet com- pleted. Two of the railroad wharves are open to all vessels on equal terms on payment of wharfage. At all of the wharves the terminal arrangements for unloading vessels by hoists and conveyors are adequate. The most important terminals on this front are Commonwealth Piers Nos. 5 and 6, of which more detailed description is given: Commonwealth Pier No. 5, owned by the Commonwealth of Massa- chusetts, is used as a United States naval supply base. It is 1,200 feet long and 400 feet wide, having a depth of 40 feet at mean low water on the two sides and end. It is covered with three 2-story fireproof sheds of steel and concrete construction. The side walls of the shed are concrete, 6 inches thick, reinforced with expanded metal. There are six railroad tracks, four of which are depressed, running the entire length of the pier. These tracks are connected with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad. Nine large freight and passenger elevators have been installed, with 24 electric winches for handling freight. The second story of the middle shed is fitted up exclusively for handling passengers from ships on either side of the pier. The rest. of the sheds are available for freight. In general design the pier has a central section, 1,150 feet long and 300 feet wide, of solid filling, inclosed by masonry walls resting on pile foundations at mean low water. The building is 360 feet wide and 1,168 feet long, divided by two light walls, running longitudinally. There is a head house built of artificial stone backed up by brick masonry. This house contains various offices, including those used by the customs service. The passengers' quarters and the offices of the head house are heated by steam, and the whole building lighted by electricity. It is also equipped with automatic sprinklers connected with the high-pressure system of the city of Boston. In addition to the pier outside there is a building for the heating plant, constructed of light brick with stone ºmings In this are installed four tubular boilers, 200 horsepower €8,Oſl. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. - 77 Commonwealth Pier No. 6, known as the Fish Pier, is owned by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and leased to the Boston Fish Mar- ket Corporation. By far the greater part of Boston's fishing industry is transacted at this pier. It is 1,200 feet long and 300 feet wide and provides berths for 40 vessels. On the wharf are two fireproof build- ings and an administration building comprising 537,110 square feet of floor surface. These buildings are owned by the Boston Fish Market Corporation. All vessels are admitted on equal terms on payment of wharfage. Fort Point Channel.—On Fort Point Channel, which is 4,224 feet long, 175 feet wide, and 23 feet deep at mean low water, there are 15 wharves worthy of mention. The general construction is bulkhead or pile. These wharves are described on the forms herewith. Six are for receipt or storage of coal, four are lumber wharves, two for general merchandise and storage, one a public warehouse, one for receipt of sugar and coal, and one for receipt of pipe, sand and gravel. The depth of water at them varies from 0 to 27 feet at mean low water; only one wharf, however, having the latter depth. Five have railroad connection with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, and good highways afford access to all. Three are open to the public on payment of wharfage charges, and one (Pier 4 of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad) makes no charge to water carriers having business with the railroad. : A total of 1,699 feet of wharf frontage is owned by the city of Boston, but is not open to the public, being used for sewer and high- way department work. Nine of the wharves are equipped with freight-handling apparatus. This ranges, for the various wharves, from bucket hoist and steam and electric towers and hoists for unloading and distributing coal, combined portable steam hoists and boilers for unloading sugar, lift bridge with electric tractor and trailer system, derricks and cable runways, steam grab bucket and electrically driven rubber belts, to steam hoisting engine and dump car. The facilities for coal and water are adequate. The following wharves are worthy of special mention: The wharf of the American Sugar Refining Co., on the east side of the channel has 1,200 feet of dockage, and is used for receipt of raw sugar and coal, and for shipping lighters of sirup to steamers for export trade. Its deepest berth is 27 feet at mean low water for a length of 812 feet. It is equipped with steam power steel coal tower for unloading coal, four combined portable steam hoists and boilers for unloading sugar, and lift bridge with electric tractor and trailer system for use in connection with car float service to the Boston & Maine Railroad's Mystic Docks. There is a single spur track of 7-car capacity, and branch tracks of 21-car capacity at the southerly end connect with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad.

Reserved channel.-On this channel, which is 3,700 feet long, 400 feet wide, and 30 feet deep at mean low water, are 15 wharves worthy of mention, with others of less importance. Their general con- struction is of bulkhead or pile. They are described on the forms herewith. They comprise six coal wharves, two lumber wharves, a wharf for boat building and storage, an iron foundry wharf, a wharf intended for a supply station of the United States Navy, the United States Army supply base wharf, two wharves over which chemicals and roofing materials are handled, and one wharf used for manufactur- ing purposes. The depth of water at them varies from 0 to 30 feet at mean low water; except at the Army supply base which has 35 feet. Five have railroad connection with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, and all have good highway connection. All are privately owned and none open to the general public. Five are equipped with freight handling apparatus for unloading coal, by boom derrick, or by steel or wooden tower hoists (in two cases with tramways), operated by steam or electricity. The facilities for coal and water are adequate. The most important terminal is the Army supply base, description of which has been furnished by the officer in charge. DESCRIPTION of ARMY SUPPLY BASE, SouTH BosTON, MAss., FURNISHED BY THE OFFICER IN CHARGE OF THE CONSTRUCTION. THE STOREHOUSE. Size, 1,638 by 126 feet. Height, 8 stories—first story, 17 feet; others, 14 feet. Col- umn spacing, 21 feet. Foundations, concrete cylinders. Superstructure, reinforced concrete, steel sash, fireproof construction. Roof, concrete with tar and gravel roofing. Unloading platform, 23 feet wide, on northerly side of building. Foundations.—These consist of concrete cylinders, one under each of the 577 col- umns, built in open wells formed by sinking concrete shells, 8 inches thick and 6 feet in outside diameter, into the hard clay stratum. The wells were belled out from 10 to 18 feet 3 inches in diameter at the bottom, depending upon the load to be carried. The wells were filled with concrete, and a concrete cap at the top is used to distribute the load over the shell and core. The average length of the cylin- ders was 40 feet, and their construction required the removal of 50,000 cubic yards of excavation and the placing of 35,000 cubic yards of concrete. Work started April 19, º and was completed on August 9, 1918, making an average of 5 cylinders per day. Superstructure.—The shell and floors are entirely of reinforced concrete, the floor being of flat slab design with 2-way reinforcement. The first floor has a wood block pavement, the other floors a granolithic surface. The building is divided into six Sections by transverse fire walls or sand-lime brick, all interior openings being pro- tected by tin-clad fire doors varying in area from 16 to 169 square feet. Sand-lime bricks are also used in the construction of the stair wells, while the elevator wells are built of terra cotta-tile, plastered. One hundred and thirty Kinnear vertical lift doors give access through 12 by 16 feet openings to any part of the ground floor, and permit the trucking of material directly from the street and freight cars to the elevators or storage piles. The storehouse receives sunlight through 80,800 panes of glass. This glass is of the following types: Clear, factory ribbed, clear wire and rough wire, and is set in Fenestra steel sash. A light clean appearance is further Secured by the white paint finish applied to the interior contact surfaces, while all exposed metal and pipes have been painted dark green. Form work was begun May 14 and on October 2 the last piece of roof was concreted, this completing the shell of the building in approximately 20 weeks.

Superstructure, structural steel, concrete walls, steel sash. Roof, plank on wooden purlins, with tar and gravel roofing. The wharf shed adjoins the storehouse on the south side, an 87-foot granite paved way, known as Terminal Street, intervening. Six structural steel bridges with walls of sand-lime brick span the street and connect the second story of the wharf shed to the third floor of the storehouse. Foundations.—The building occupies the greater part of a concrete wharf which extends 35 feet beyond the building on the water side. The wharf consists of a 10-inch reinforced deck slab with floor beams resting on 16,000 wood piles averaging 50 feet in length. Pile clusters give the necessary bearing for the column loads. Superstructure.—Four thousand one hundred and sixty-three tons of structural steel were required for the erection of the framework of this building. The side walls and the second-floor slab are concrete, while the roof purlins, planking, and the monitor walls are of wood construction. A balcony at the second floor level permits the trans- ference of freight between this floor and the ship. Access to the first floor and balcony is through 229 Ogden vertical lift doors, having a total area of 74,000 square feet. The ground floor, which is flush with Terminal Street and the wharf proper, is paved with wood blocks, the second floor with bitulithic pavement, and the balcony with mastic flooring. Bayley-Springfield sash is used throughout the building. The 19,000 panes of glass used are divided among the following types: Factory ribbed, rough wire, clear double thick, and clear wire. This building is divided into three sections by transverse red brick fire walls. Stair and elevator wells and partitions for toilets and offices are of plastered terra Cotta. The erection of the steelwork commenced September 10, 1918, and the wood roof was completed 10 weeks later.

Total length, 5,474 feet along the water front. Foundation, wooden bearing piles. Deck, reinforced concrete slab on concrete girders. - - A continuous concrete wharf will nearly surround the property. This wharf will provide 4,151 feet of berthing space on the southerly side, 1,025 feet on the northerly side, and 300 feet at the easterly end, giving a total length of over a mile and making it possible to berth ten 400-foot ships at one time. All the wharves follow the same general construction. The foundations are of yellow pine bearing piles varying in length from 25 feet to 70 feet. These are driven in bents 10 feet 6 inches center to center at right angles to the line of the wharf, with clusters at points of concentrated loading. After the straightening and capping of the piles was completed, concrete girders were cast on the pile bents with heavy front and back beams and intermediate separator beams. Extra longitudinal beams were placed under the location for the crane and track rails. The deck is a concrete slab which varies in thickness from 8 inches to 11 inches, whose top is at elevation 118.42. Cross Sections of wharves are shown on plates. The west open wharf, between Summer Street and the westerly end of the wharf shed, has a width of 120 feet and contains two railroad tracks and crane rails. This wharf will be used for the open storage of heavy material destined for boat shipment. The main wharf is 1,638 feet long and 135 feet wide. The entire length and 100 feet of the width serves as a foundation and first floor for the wharf shed building. The rest of the wharf will be used as operating area for the handling of material. It Contains two railroad tracks and one crane rail. The east open wharf, between the pier shed and the wharf shed, is 72 feet wide and 542 feet long and will be used for open storage, as well as the handling of material. Two railroad tracks and one crane rail have been provided for, together with foundations for an overhead rail which when installed will permit the Gantry crane which oper- ates on the wharf shed to also operate on this wharf. 80 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The pier shed wharves each have a net width of 28 feet excepting the wharf at the easterly end, which is 25 feet wide. On the north and south sides of the building One railroad track has been provided for. A continuation of the North Pier shed wharf westerly is known as the north open wharf. This has a width of 52 feet and is 74 feet long. Fender piles have been driven at each bent line and a continuous 12 by 12 inch hard-pine fender cap extends around the entire wharf. Bollards, for tying up the vessels, spaced approximately 105 feet on center, have been placed along the edge of the wharf. - Materials used in the construction of the wharves: Wooden bearing piles and fender piles. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . number. . 25, 850 Capping and bracing-----------. . . . . . . . . . - * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * feet b. m. - 1,326, CC0 Forms (contact surface). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . square feet. . 1, 244, 235 Reinforcement--------------- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - tons. . 1,050 Concrete------------------------------------------------- cubic yards. . 36,000 BOIL ER HO US E.

The boiler house is located on the northerly edge of the property, approximately halfway between the storehouse and the north pier shed. Foundations.—Raymond concrete piles averaging 35 feet in length were driven for the support of three walls of the building and for all interior foundations. To support the south wall 55-foot wooden piles were driven. Superstructure.—The basement floor, walls, and the first floor slab are of concrete. Above the first floor concrete pilasters extend to the roof, brick being used for the intervening panels. The coal bunker, which is between and above the boilers and extends into the monitor of the building, is supported by interior structural steel- work. This steelwork also serves as the support for the boilers and the overhead platform. The roof slabs are of concrete, with tar and gravel roofing. The windows are of Fenestra steel sash glazed with a factory ribbed glass. At the South end of the building is the concrete ash hopper and the concrete structure for housing the coal crusher and coal-handling machinery. Stacks.-Just outside the north wall of the building are two radial brick chimneys. Each chimney has a foundation of 44 Raymond cast-in-place concrete piles, with a concrete base. The stacks are 165 feet high and 16 feet in diameter at the base. Materials used in the boiler house.

Foundations: concrete and wood bearing piles and concrete sheet piling. Superstructure: reinforced concrete, steel sash, fireproof construction. Roof: concrete slab with tar and gravel roofing. The pier shed is located at the easterly end of the property and is intended to be used for naval stores. It consists of two units, three stories high, separated by a depressed way 37 feet wide accommodating three lines of railroad tracks. Foundations.—This group of buildings, including the concrete wharf which extends around three sides, rests on 6,300 Raymond concrete piles and 4,350 wooden piles. The exterior columns on the north and south sides, respectively, of the two º are carried on reinforced concrete sheet-pile bulkheads which also retain the º Superstructure.—The shell, floors, and roof of the pier shed are built entirely of reinforced concrete, the floor being of flat slab design with two-way reinforcement. Wood block pavement is used on the first floor with granolithic finish on the others. Inclined ramps allow the moving of supplies from one building to the other across the depressed track area. Balconies have been built on the second and third floors, on the sides adjoining the water, so that freight may be transferred directly between either of these floors and ships. -> WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 81 Each building is divided into four sections by transverse firewalls of red brick. Four two-story reinforced concrete bridges over the central trackway connect the second and third floors of each section of the twin buildings, while 41,000 square feet of Fenestra steel sash hold the 19,700 panes of glass which admit daylight to their interior. The 72 doorways on the first floor, opening onto the track platform, have been provided with sliding wooden doors. . The ramps and other large exterior doorways are equipped with a total of 166 Ogden vertical lift doors. The first concrete for the building was placed September 16, 1918, and the last piece of roof was poured 10 weeks later.

A vessel of 8,000 tons can be loaded, using 4 bridge cranes, in about 553 hours, or say, 2% days. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—6 82 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Chelsea Creek.—The United States has constructed and maintains in lower Chelsea Creek a channel 150 feet wide, 25 feet deep at mean low water, and about 4,620 feet long; in upper Chelsea Creek a channel 150 feet wide, 8.4 feet deep at mean low water, and about 5,500 feet long. The mean range of tide is 9.6 feet. There are 15 wharves worthy of mention. They are of bulkhead and pile construc- tion. Four are coal wharves, four for the mooring of contractors' floating plant, two for receipt of petroleum and products, one a buoy wharf of the Lighthouse Department, one serving a shipbuilding and repair yard, and three for receipt, respectively, of coal tar and products, chalk, and the disposition of ashes and offal. The depth of water at them varies from 0 to 30 feet at mean low water. Five have railroad connection, and all except one have good highway con- nection. All are privately.owned and none open to the general public, but in case of need a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of them. Coal is handled by steam-operated derricks, petroleum discharged by steam pumps, ashes and offal handled by steam crane, and the shipbuilding yard operates four marine railways and two steam derricks. The arrangements for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. - None of the wharves appear to call for special description. Charles River (including Millers River).-Charles River up to Watertown has been improved by the United States under old projects. In the upper part a fresh-water basin now exists, formed by the construction by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts of a dam and lock about a mile above the mouth. Bordering this basin there are 31 wharves worthy of mention, mostly of stone bulkhead construction, solid fill. Six are for the receipt of coal and wood, six are used for manufacturing purposes, nine for receipt of paving and building materials, five for lumber, two for oil and gasoline, and three are vacant wharves. Below the dam and lock on the 35-foot channel, and in Millers River, there are seven wharves worthy of mention, mostly of stone bulkhead construction, solid fill. Three are coal wharves, two storage wharves, one for receipt of salt, and one a vacant wharf. The depth of water at the wharves above the dam varies from 7 to 18 feet below the level of Charles River Basin; below the dam, 6 to 25 feet at mean low water. All these wharves are described on the forms here with. Four have railroad connection with the Boston & Albany Railroad, and two with the Boston & Maine Railroad. All have good highway connection. All are privately owned; one, that of the Charles River Stores, is open to the general public on payment of wharfage. Coal and stone are handled by steam towers and der- ricks, and there is an electric hoist at the Charles River Stores for the handling of general merchandise. The facilities for coaling and Watering appear to be adequate. None of these wharves appear to call for special description. Mystic and Maldem Rivers, Mass.-The United States has con- structed and maintains in the lower Mystic River a channel 30 feet deep at mean low water from the mouth of sland End River through the Chelsea (north) Bridge to the 35-foot channel of Boston Harbor, about one-half mile, 600 feet wide at the upper end and gradually narrowing to 300 feet wide at the lower end; and in the upper Mystic a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water and 100 feet wide from the WATER TERMINAT, AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 83 Boston & Maine (western division) bridge to about 2,500 feet above Wellington Bridge, about 1 mile, and thence 4 feet deep at mean low water, gradually narrowing from 100 feet to 50 feet at the upper end, for about 2 miles to the head of navigation at Cradock Bridge in Medford. In Malden River the United States has constructed and maintains a channel 100 feet wide and 12 feet deep at mean high water from the mouth to the Medford Street Bridge at Malden, a distance of 1.6 miles. A new project has been adopted for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water, 100 to 150 feet wide, between the same terminal limits, but eliminating several objectionable bends of the previous channel. Work on this project has not been begun. The mean range of tide in both Mystic and Malden Rivers is 9.6 feet. The total normal commerce before the war amounted to about 3,900,000 short tons, valued at about $22,000,000. On Mystic and Malden Rivers, including the Chelsea front of Boston Harbor, but not including the “south channel” of Mystic River, there are 23 wharves worthy of mention. All are of bulkhead or pile construction, and are described on the forms herewith. Eleven are coal wharves, two lumber wharves, two shipyard and boat building wharves, one used by the Navy Department for boat storage, and seven used variously for receipt or shipment of paving materials, cinders, iron and steel, sand, building materials, sugar, and general merchandise. The depth of water at them varies from 0 to 30 feet at mean low water. Nine have railroad connection with the Boston & Maine Railroad, two with the Boston & Albany Railroad, and one with both railroads. All have good highway connections. All are privately owned; two are open to the general public on payment of wharfage charges. Coal is handled by steam tower hoists, cable runways, and electric trucks; sand and cinders by electric chain conveyor and electric ramp; and there is a marine railway for launch- ing boats. The facilities for coaling and watering appear to be ade- uate. None of the wharves appear to call for special description. South channel of Mystic River.—The so-called “south channel” of Mystic River, on which there is no Federal improvement, lies between the Mystic Docks and the United States navy yard. It is bordered by 10 wharves of bulkhead or pile construction. Three are coal º two lumber wharves, one (Pier 45 of the Boston & Maine Railroad) for receipt and shipment of miscellaneous foreign and domestic freight, and four used for handling chemicals, paving stone, and building materials. The depth of water at them varies from 0 to 20 feet at mean low water. The mean range of tide is 9.6 feet. Only one, Pier 45, has railroad connection; all have good highway connec– tion. The city of Boston owns one wharf, used for storage of paving materials; with this exception all the wharves are º owned. None are open to general public use. Coal is handled by steam hoist- ing towers; freight over Pier 45 by electric escalators. The facilities for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. None of these wharves call for special description. Summary of port of Boston.—Taken as a whole, the port of Boston appears to be commodious, adequate to the demands upon it, and well up to date in its equipment. There is anchorage and wharf space enough for the commerce using the port, and the commercial wharves are furnished with good arrangements for the rapid loading and unloading of vessels. Railroad connections are excellent and 84 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. there is no difficulty about coal and water. The port is under control of a harbor master appointed by the municipality. There are no port charges. - - While the space on the 35-foot channel is pretty well occupied, there is plenty of room elsewhere for future development. Public control is all that can be desired. Several piers are owned by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, which is also the largest single owner of the undeveloped front. There is no demand for additional public terminals, and in my opinion, none are needed at present. DORCHESTER BAY AND NEPONSET RIVER, MAss. The United States has constructed and maintains connecting channels 18 feet deep at mean low water by 175 feet wide through Dorchester Bay to Commercial Point, at the mouth of Neponset River; and 15 feet deep at mean low water by 100 feet wide from that point up the river to the Neponset Highway Bridge. Dorchester Bay.—On Dorchester Bay there are five wharves worthy of mention. They are of bulkhead and pile construction. Four are coal wharves, and one a wharf of the United States Destroyer Plant. These five wharves are described in the forms herewith. The depth of water at them varies from 11 to 20 feet at mean low water. One of them, that of the destroyer plant, has railroad connection by spur with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad. All have good highway connection. None are for public use. There is in addition one municipal wharf used to serve a city pumping station, but not open to the general public. In case of need a vessel could robably find accommodation at one of the existing wharves. Coal is handled by steam-operated coal towers, steam derrick, cable tramway and trestles. The mechanical appliances of the United States Destoyer Plant are given special description below.' Neponset River.—On Neponset River there are eight wharves worthy of mention. They are of bulkhead and pile construction. Four are coal wharves, two are lumber wharves, one the wharf of a yacht-building plant, and one is used for storage of contractor's material. These eight wharves are described on the forms herewith. The depth of water at them varies from 0 to 10 feet at mean low water. Two have railroad connections with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, and all have good highway connections. All are privately owned and none are open to the general public. In case of need a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of the existing wharves. Coal is handled by steam tower hoists, cable . and overhead tramway; lumber by an electrically operated €I’I’1C, K. Arrangements for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. There is no immediate need of public wharves. The terminal facilities are adequate. The mean range of tide is 9.6 feet. The most important terminal on Dorchester Bay and Neponset River is that of the United States Destroyer Plant. This terminal has 10 launching ways, depth of water at ends 12 to 15 feet at mean low water; four wet slips; one pier with a total wharfage of 240 feet, depth of water 12 feet at mean low water; shipbuilding sheds and one stiff-leg derrick of 25 tons capacity for loading or unloading vessels. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 85 A spur line track from the New York, New Haven & Hartford Rail- road connects with this terminal. The whole is an efficient and powerful terminal for exchange of traffic between rail and water. It is used exclusively in connection with the building of destroyer boats. The terminal facilities are for the exclusive use # the plant. Nothing further appears to call for comment. WEYMOUTH FORE RIVER, MAss. The United States is constructing a channel 24 feet deep at mean low water from that depth in Hingham Bay up to the Quincy Point Bridge. The normal commerce before the war, including that of Town River, was about 177,000 short tons, valued at about $968,000. The chief commodity is coal. The 24-foot channel when completed will be of importance chiefly to the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corpo- ration, which builds at its extensive plant at Quincy Point passenger and freight steamers, cruisers, and battleships up to 30,000 tons. There are 11 wharves worthy of mention. They are of bulkhead and pile construction, and are described on the forms herewith. Seven are coal wharves, two are lumber wharves, one the wharf of the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation, and one for the repair of yachts and com- mercial vessels. The depth of water beside them varies from 10 to 40 feet at mean low water. The mean range of tide is 9.5 feet. The ship- building corporation’s wharf alone has railroad connection. All, with the exception of one coal wharf, have good highway connection. One of these wharves, on Town River, and eight above the Quincy Point Bridge, are beyond the limit of Federal improvement but more or less benefited by it. . All the wharves are privately owned and not open to the general public, but in case of need a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of them. There are no municipal wharves and apparently no demand for them. There is no immediate need of public terminals. Coal is handled by steam-operated towers, derricks, and tramways with cable cars; shipbuilding material by powerful electric cranes. The arrangements for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. The terminal facilities are adequate. The most important terminal on Weymouth Fore River is that of the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation, above Quincy Point Bridge, and closely contiguous to the improved part of the river. This terminal has one large mooring basin about 785 feet long and 350 feet wide, and a smaller one about 385 feet long and 120 feet wide. The depth of water in the large basin varies from 20 to 26 feet at mean low water; in the smaller basin from 17 to 20 feet at mean low water. There are 17 launching ways, shipbuilding sheds, and two steam- operated cranes, one a powerful gantry crane of 100 tons capacity capable of handling naval turrets, heavy guns, etc.; the other crane has a capacity of 15 tons. Railroad tracks communicate directly with the cranes. The whole is an efficient and powerful terminal for exchange of traffic between rail and water. It is used exclusively in connection with the building and equipping of large vessels. The terminal facilities are for the exclusive use of the Bethlehem Ship- building Corporation. Excellent physical connection exists between this modern water terminal and the railroads serving the adjacent territory. 86 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. WEYMOUTH BACK RIVER, MAss. The United States has constructed and maintains a channel 12 feet deep at mean low water through the bar near the mouth, and a channel 12 feet deep at mean low water from that depth to the wharf of the American Agricultural Chemical Co. The Navy Department has dredged a channel 12 feet deep at mean low water from the improved channel of that depth to the naval magazine at Hingham. The normal commerce of the port before the war was about 215,000 short tons, valued at about $4,850,000. Raw and manufactured fertilizer products comprise the highest percentage of commerce. There are only two wharves on Weymouth Back River, both of bulkhead and pile construction. One of these, the naval magazine wharf at Hingham, is above the head of the improvement; it is used for handling ammunition. The other is the wharf of the American Agricultural Chemical Co., used for receipt and shipment of fertilizer products. . The depth of water at the former is 12 feet at mean low water, and along the front of the latter 12 to 20 feet at mean low water. The mean range of tide is 9.4 feet. The naval magazine wharf has a spur connection from the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad. Both are accessible by good highways. They are privately owned and not open to public use, but in case of need a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of them. Ammunition is handled over the naval magazine wharf by a hand-operated pillar crane, and by compressed-air locomotive and cars; fertilizer products over the chem- ical company's wharf by steam-operated power hoists. Arrange- ments for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. There is no municipal wharf and no demand for one. The terminal facilities are adequate for the present needs of commerce. The only terminal situated upon the improved channel is that of the chemical company. This has a water front 1,365 feet long avail- able for vessels, 400 feet of which has a depth of 20 feet at mean low water and the balance 12 feet at mean low water. PLYMOUTH HARBOR, MASS. The United States has constructed and maintains at Plymouth a channel 18 feet deep at mean low, water from deep water to the wharves, with a suitable turning basin at the inner end. . The normal commerce before the war was about 40,000 short tons, valued at about $259,000. The harbor is used chiefly for the receipt of coal and lumber. g There are in Plymouth six wharves worthy of mention. They are of bulkhead or pile construction, and are described on the forms here- with. Two are coal wharves, one a passenger steamboat landing, one a cordage company's wharf receiving coal and vegetable fibers, one public boat landing, and one fish wharf. The depth of water beside them varies from 0 to 18 feet at mean low water. One, that of the Plymouth Cordage Co., has railway connection by a'º. track from the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad. All are accessible by good highways. All are privately owned; one is leased by the town of Plymouth and open to general public use as a boat landing place. In case of need a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of the existing wharves. Coal is handled by steam-operated WATER TERMINAT, AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. S7 derricks and overhead tramways; passenger traffic over the steamboat wharf by a hand-operated drop. The mean range of tide is 9.6 feet. Arrangements for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. The port is under the control of a harbor master appointed by the munici- pality. There are no port charges. The terminal facilities at Plymouth are adequate for the present needs of commerce. None of the wharves appear to call for special description. PROVINCETOWN HARBOR, MAss. Provincetown Harbor contains several square miles of anchorage area. The width and depth of entrance and the depth of the anchor- age area are ample for the largest vessels. The harbor is of im- portance mainly as an anchorage and a harbor of refuge. It is not really under improvement by the United States, but there are wharves there which may be mentioned. Dikes have been built in order to resist the erosion and promote the accretion of the barrier of beach and sand dunes. It is frequented by a large fleet of fishing vessels, also by merchant vessels for shelter only, and previous to the war received a few cargoes of lumber and firewood from Nova Scotia; the total annual commerce being from 27,000 to 30,000 tons. There are in Provincetown two wharves worthy of mention, with others of less importance. These wharves are of pile construction, one to accommodate freight and passenger traffic and one for the receipt of fish. The depth of water at the outer ends of these two wharves is about 9 feet at mean low water. One of them has rail- road connection. Both have good highway connection. Neither of the wharves is open to general public use. In case of need a vessel could probably find accommodation at one of them. Mean range of tide is 9.2 feet. Arrangements for coaling and watering appear to be adequate. The port is not under the control of a harbor master. There are no port charges. Provincetown Harbor is mainly used as a stopping place for vessels and tows of barges in bad weather, as a place of rendezvous for the navy fleets for maneuvers, and as a landing place of passenger steamers carrying summer excursions from Boston to the town, which has a considerable floating population at that season. 33 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

WILLARD, UNITED STATES ARMY RETIRED, IN CHARGE NANTUCKET HARBOR, MASS, The harbor of Nantucket is formed by an indentation in the north shore of the island of Nantucket. The upper harbor has a length of about 5 miles but is obstructed by shoals and is but little used. South- west of the above is the harbor proper, which is exclusively used for the commerce of the island. It is about 6,000 feet long and covers about 500 acres, about 68 acres of which exceeds 12 feet in depth. The existing project provides for securing a depth of 15 feet at mean low water without prescribed width over the bar at the entrance by converging, jetties and by dredging. The mean range of tide is 3.1 feet. The commerce of the harbor in 1917 amounted to 41,018 tons, comprised chiefly of coal, general merchandise, and fish and shellfish, carried in regular line steamboats running from New Bedford, tug- boats, and a large number of steam and motor fishing vessels. The draft of all of these vessels is less than 12 feet. The whole commerce is of the character that would be required by a well patronized sum- mer resort and in winter by a fishing community. The terminals seem to be adequate for the needs of the locality. The port affairs are managed by a harbor master; there are no port charges nor publicly owned wharves. A slight interest in the welfare of the port has been manifested by the organization of a company for rebuilding one of the wharves and dredging in its vicinity, and the construction of a small marine railway. There is a small narrow-gage railway on the island about 7 miles long; sometimes this is in opera- tion, at other times not. It is understood to have been abandoned last fall. The handling of all package freight is by hand truck; coal, ice, etc., by steam derrick. There are no features of freight handling exhibit- ing special efficiency and the items are so small in amount that there seems to be no incentive favoring the necessary capital expenditure to make any marked difference in present methods. An ample freight and passenger shed is º on the steamboat company's wharf. Coal is teamed away from the wharf to the coal yard as fast as unloaded and ice is stored in a house for the purpose. There is no general storehouse for miscellaneous freight nor does one seem to be necessary for the small receipts and shipments at the island. 163 164 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. NEW BEDFORD AND FAIRHAVEN HARBORs, MAss. New Bedford and Fairhaven Harbors are one harbor, the eastern side being Fairhaven and the western side New Bedford. It is an estuary of Buzzards Bay at the mouth of the Acushnet River. It is practically landlocked by the mainland on the east, north, and west sides, and by Palmer Island on the south. The entire length of the harbor in a northerly and southerly direction is about 5 miles. The upper 2 miles is about three-fourths of a mile wide and the remainder 14 miles wide. The existing project provides for an entrance channel 300 feet wide and 2.9 miles long, a turning basin of 14 acres above the New Bedford and Fairhaven Bridge and an anchorage basin of 114 acres below the bridge, all 25 feet deep, and an extension of Acushnet River about 2.15 miles, 18 feet deep. The latter is dependent upon certain improvements to be made by the local authorities which have not been accomplished. The 25-foot project has been practically com- pleted. The mean range of tide is 4 feet. New Bedford is a large manufacturing center of the finer grades of cotton goods and is connected by rail with an extensive inland manu- facturing district. The products received there, both from the interior and from the sea, are such as would be demanded in that line of work. The general character of the commerce consists of coal and cotton for inland distribution and local consumption, lumber and building materials, oil, general merchandise, and fish and shell- fish, etc. In 1917 the total water-borne commerce amounted to 1,264,881 tons which was slightly less than the average of the previous four years. About 69 per cent of the tonnage was coal carried in colliers and barges with a draft of 11 to 22.5 feet, of which 58 per cent was under and 42 per cent over 18 feet draft. The package freight is carried largely in regular lines of freight and passenger steamers, the most important line making daily trips to New York, using able boats with a draft of about 13 feet. Another line, making daily trips to Nantucket and Marthas Vineyard Islands, with an increase in the number of trips to accommodate summer traffic. These boats have a draft of from 8 to 10 feet. There are occasional schooners from the Cape Verde Islands and infrequent foreign steamers with cargoes of sisal or Egyptian cotton coming into the harbor and unloading at the wharves. In addition to these, there are a large number of sailing, steam, and motor fishing vessels. The portion of the harbor where active freight-handling operations are in progress is provided with rail facilities by the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad; on the west, or New Bedford side, by tracks which are, or can easily be, connected with all of the wharves in use north of the Philadelphia & Reading Coal & Iron Co.'s wharf, below which there are but two wharves in use—one an industrial, and one a commercial wharf–chiefly for lumber; and on the east or Fairhaven side, one wharf is reached by a branch line of the above railroad. Coal, which is the largest item of tonnage coming to the harbor, is adequately handled by modern appliances with a much greater capacity for unloading and storage than is at present required. Cotton and general merchandise are handled almost entirely by two lines of vessels of the New England Steamship Co., which are sub- sidiary to the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co., and there is, of course, an interchange of traffic. All of this traffic is WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 165 moved between boat and train or truck for local distribution, by hand trucks, which in view of the frequency of trips (daily) and the facts that the New York boats run at night and remain at the pier all day, together with the amount of sorting to be done, appears to be a satisfactory method. The piers are practically cleared up each trip, and the little storage required is provided for in the sheds on the pier. Tracks run into the shed, and the cars are loaded by hand truck directly from the boat. - The administration of the harbor is under the direction of a harbor master and the quarantine regulations under the direction of the board of health. There are no port charges. The State of Massachusetts owns 230 feet of water front on which has been built a pier 600 feet long with a length of cap log of 1,476 feet, and 25 feet depth of water at mean low tide. The city of New Bedford owns 378 feet of the water front adjacent to and to the north of the State pier property. There are two piers on this prop- erty having an aggregate length of cap log of 1,292 feet, with depths of from 12 to 19 feet. - The city of New Bedford has shown an interest in the improve- ment of terminal facilities, as manifested in the reconstruction of a long bridge connecting the city with Fairhaven, containing two draw spans of 100 feet each in place of one of about 40 feet, and the State has built its fine masonry pier; but, on the other hand, the local authorities have failed to reconstruct a bridge farther up the Acushnet River and to build a pier on city property near the north end of the city, both of which were made a condition of the diedging by the United States of a channel 18 feet deep to Belleville, so called; consequently, that part of the project has not been executed. Al- though there is a professed desire on the part of the people to make use of the facilities available, there does not appear to be any con– siderable increase in the tonnage of the port. To what extent this may be due to the abnormal conditions existing during the past four years is not known. There are good rail and water connections at all points where shipments to the interior are made. Joint ownership is believed to be objectionable under circumstances such as obtain at New Bedford where a single railroad serves the whole community, tending to curtail the number of water lines and reducing them, to those con- cerned in the ownership, and to just sufficient to care for the surplus freight which the railroad is unable to handle without special regard to the lower cost of carrying by the water lines. It is believed that such ownership has a tendency to bring the cost of both forms of transportation to the level of the railroad rate and nullify the ad- Vantage of the lower water costs. - The harbor is advantageously situated as a point of consumption and distribution of the raw material and manufactured goods pecu- liar to its locality, consisting largely of cotton and coal as imports and manufactured goods and fish and shellfish as exports. The improved depth of the harbor is 25 feet at mean low water. The wharf front is comprised within a length of a little less than 1 mile, while the modern extension of indust ial development has taken place within about 2 miles both north and south of the center of this wharf front; that is, all raw material brought by water and products shipped by water must be hauled in excess of 1 mile by 166. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. truck or teams. Practically all of the new mills have been built on the water front, and an appropriation was made by Congress to deepen the waterway to the most northern mills, providing the city would make the necessary expenditures for bettering the conditions at a bridge crossing the stream and build a wharf. The improve- ment of the water approach to the southern section of the industrial development has not been a subject of study yet, other than in the communication of the city engineer herewith, in which the suggestion is made. With these two long wings of undeveloped water front and great cotton mills at either end of them, it does not seem that the harbor can be regarded as markedly efficient. This condition is the outgrowth of the earlier days when New Bedford was the great center of the whaling industry and its commerce was naturally con- centrated on a small, well-developed wharf front. As capital thus acquired was invested in cotton mills, the latter rapidly spread north and south and the trucking and teaming of supplies easily followed the mills. The coaling of the regular New York line boats would usually take place in New York as being nearer the source of coal supply. So far as being able to supply other vessels at New Bedford prices, this can readily be accomplished by means of lighters or scows, were there any demand for such work. There is a marine railway in Fairhaven with five ways accommodating drafts up to 15 feet, and tonnage up to 1,500 tons. They are now engaged in fitting one of the ways to care for vessels up to 5,000 tons. Machine shops doing considerable marine business in New Bedford are available for machinery repairs. The storage facilities consist of a two-story steel shed on the State pier capable of stoling 15,000 bales of cotton without tiering. This shed is supplied with two railroad tracks. Sufficient storage for the regular line of steamers to New York is provided on their own piers and another in the northern part of the city with rail connections only, at which they have handled 53,000 bales of cotton per month. There are at present three large storage warehouses in New Bedford in addition to those of the railroad and State. These have only railroad connections at present, but one corporation has a building located near the water front with the railroad only between it and the wharves, and has in contemplation the erection of another on the wharves with a frontage having 25 feet depth, thus giving both buildings rail and water connections. The betterment of the harbor is a problem intimately connected with the relations of the railroad and water transportation both locally and at the point of concentration, New York, which in turn is closely connected with methods of distribution from there. The suggestion naturally arises that by a complete separation of the water lines from the railroad lines and compulsory equal treatment of all water lines by the railroad, there would at once develop lively competition between water carriers which would place water-borne freight on a normal basis entirely independent of any rail rates. To accomplish this would require the development of the city front immediately south of the present improved portion and the exten- sion of the railroad a little south of its present terminus on land reclaimed in part by filling behind a bulkhead built along the present harbor line, the accomplishment of which would º the exten- sion of the 25-foot channel south along the face of the bulkhead, to be used as a quay. Such development could be extended south as WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 167 far as it was necessary, and the direction south is suggested for the reason that there is ample expanse of waterway and no question of bridges. Holmes Coal Co.—This wharf is used for discharging coal vessels and storage of coal for local distribution. It is equipped with one coal-discharging tower with a single clamshell bucket operated by steam. The coal is dumped into a hopper of the tower, thence into small, narrow gage, side dump cars, propelled by endless cables on an elevated trestle, thence to a large divided storage pocket on the wharf, or to open storage bins, or storage pocket in yard on shore for various sizes of coal. The wagons or motor trucks for final delivery are either dumped from storage pockets or shoveled from storage bins. Storage capacity, 18,000 to 20,000 tons, chiefly an- ºte. Some bituminous coal is handled at this wharf for cotton JIllllS. New Bedford Gas and Edison Light Co.—Gas works wharf: This Company furnishes electric light and gas service for New Bedford and surrounding towns. The coal-handling plant consists of one modern coal-discharging tower operated by electricity, equipped with clamshell bucket hoist. Gas coal is hoisted and deposited into a hopper in tower; thence into small side dump, narrow gage cars Operated by an endless cable electrically driven; thence to a storage shed of 5,000 tons capacity. Bituminous coal for fuel is dumped from hopper in tower into two-wheeled handcarts; thence to stock pile. The gas coal is discharged at storage shed by chute into self- dumping cars moved on a narrow-gage track, by hand, to the foot of an endless chain bucket elevator carrying coal to a storage bunker from which weighed charges are dumped, by handcarts, into inclined retorts, from which after removal of gas, coke is dumped onto a bucket conveyor; thence to stock pile. The fuel coal is moved by hand to boiler floor and fed by hand. - The fuel for the electric light plant, amounting to 70,000 to 80,000 tons annually, is dumped into a hopper in the tower, thence into Small side dump cars on two inclined narrow-gage railways on trestles from which it is dumped in stock piles, thence by locomotive cranes using small clamshell buckets into a 20-ton standard gage car which is pushed by cranes over hoppers into which it is dumped; the coal is received from hoppers into buckets, one on each end of a single wire of an electrically operated skip hoist which lifts the coal about 90 feet to bunkers of 1,000 tons capacity, located near top of building. Small hoppers on an electrically operated crane (larry) inside the building receive the coal from the bunkers and carry it to hoppers of automatic stokers at boilers. The ashes from boilers fall into hoppers under the boilers from which they are dumped into small electrically driven industrial trucks on narrow-gage tracks to ash pile outside of plant and used for fill or sold. Improvements are contemplated in regard to storage and handling coal at this wharf. The storage capacity at stock pile is about 25,000 tons. The plant is not complete, enlargements are proposed. The present boiler capacity is 37,000 kilowatts, but generator sets are installed for 56,000 kilowatts. The output for 1918 was about 70,000,000 kilowatt-hours of which 80 per cent was used locally and 20 per cent transmitted over high-tension lines to surrounding towns as far as Chatham and Plymouth, Mass. 168 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Philadelphia dº Reading Coal dº Iron Co.'s wharf.-At this wharf is handled the company's anthracite coal and also bituminous coal purchased by local manufacturing concerns, which the company unloads at a charge of 65 cents per ton. There are two discharging plants. One is near the end of the wharf on the north side of a large storage pocket. This plant con- sists of a steam-operated clamshell bucket hoist which dumps the coal into a hopper at the hoist from which it is distributed by belt conveyor to storage bin, thence through chutes to wagons, motor trucks for local distribution, or railroad cars for interior shipment. The second discharging plant is located shoreward on the wharf and consists of two steam-operated shears with single whip hoist and self-dumping bucket, into chutes reaching certain storage bins or into two-wheel handcarts when it is wheeled to a stock pile. The storage capacity of this plant is now about 25,000 tons, capable of extension to 80,000 tons by the construction of additional pockets. Formerly a very large shipping business to interior points was carried on over this wharf. During 1918, the amount was not more than a few carloads. New England Steamship Co.—At this wharf is handled miscellaneous freight (general merchandise) and cotton to and from the regular New York lines of the above company. No mechanical appliances are used in handling this freight; it is loaded and unloaded from steamers by hand trucks, either directly to cars or assorted for local delivery. Tracks from the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad run through the freight shed on the wharf, which covers about 42,000 square feet. An additional storage room for cotton, with about 3,000 square feet of floor, is located outside the main shed; both sheds are substantially built of wood. It is estimated that out of an average yearly tonnage of 230,000 tons carried by the steamers of this line, 45 per cent originates or terminates in New Bedford and 55 per cent is received or shipped by rail to points in the interior. State pier.—This pier is open to the use of all and having a depth of 25 feet at mean low water alongside is intended primarily for the use of the largest class of vessels reaching the harbor. It is covered with a well constructed steel shed, part two stories in height, and offers about 90,000 square feet of floor space. No freight handling appliances are installed. Power station.—This wharf owned by the Union Street Railway Co. is occupied by two power stations which generate current for local street railway and for part of coal discharging plant. This plant is located between the two power stations and is used by the City Coal Co. which discharges besides its own coal all that used by the Union Street Railway Co. The coal is handled by clam shell bucket and dumped into hopper in tower, thence into small narrow gage side dump cars which are run out on inclined trestle, dumped and returned by counterweight. That for old power station is dumped into storage bin on wharf which adjoins the boiler house, thence by wheelbarrows to floor of boiler house and is shoveled by hand into fires. That for the new station is shoveled into small industrial cars pushed by hand into the boiler room, dumped into an electrically operated bucket hoist; thence to hoppers over auto- matic stokers. The coal for the City Coal Co. is carried across the WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. I69 wharf over tracks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Rail- Road Co. to land leased by the company and dumped into a storage shed or open stock pile for distribution. All the coal handled at this wharf is for local distribution and consumption. Capacity is about 6,000 to 8,000 tons. Duff's wharf.-The wharf at the north end of Fish Island handles both anthracite and bituminous coal for local distribution. It is provided with two modern coal-discharging towers with steam- operated clam shell bucket hoists. These discharging towers are at the north end of the wharf and are used together in discharging a vessel. The coal is hoisted, dumped in a hopper in each tower; thence into side dump cars on an elevated track operated by endless cable driven by gasoline engine; thence, for anthracite coal, to storage pockets and dumped into classification bins, bituminous coal into an open stockpile. The anthracite coal is discharged through chutes into wagons or motor trucks: the bituminous coal is loaded into wagons and trucks by two small clam shell buckets, one operated by steam, and one electrically operated. Storage capacity of this yard is bout 40,000 tons; during 1918 there were discharged over this wharf 275,858 net tons of which 247,982 tons were bituminous, nearly all of which was supplied to the cotton mills and other large manufacturing plants. There is no railroad connection with this wharf. Pocahontas Fucl Co.—The coal handling plant of the Pocahontas Fuel Co. is largely for bituminous coal for interior distribution. This plant has at the east end of its wharf two modern coal discharg— ing towers equipped with steam operated clam shell bucket hoists; they are located on an elevated platform extending along the face of the wharf and are used together or separately in discharging the ves- sel. ... The coal is dumped into a hopper in the tower, thence into Small, narrow-gage side dump cars moving on tracks on a high trestle extending around the yard. The cars are operated by a steam-driven endless cable and deposit their loads into storage bins for local delivery, or interior shipment, and in an open stock pile in the center of the wharf. It is rehandled from the stock pile and storage bins refilled as occasion may require by a clam shell bucket operated from a movable bridge over the pile. The distribution is provided for by chutes from the storage bins into either local truck or wagons, or into cars which enter the yard from the railroad. The storage capacity of this yard is about 25,000 tons. There was discharged over this wharf during the year 1918 a total of about 375,000 tons, about half distributed locally and half to interior points by rail. This company contemplates additions and enlarge- ments to the plant already in operation. Akin & Demison Co.—This wharf is used for discharging coal vessels and for storage of coal for local distribution. It is equipped with one modern coal discharging tower carrying steam-operated clamshell bucket hoist. The coal is dumped into a hopper in the tower; thence into small narrow-gage side-dump cars running on two inclined trestles leading to storage pockets and to an open stock pile. The empty cars are returned to the towers by counter weights. Coal from storage chutes loaded into wagons and motor trucks is brought from stock pile by gasoline operated elevator loader. 170 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Storage capacity of this yard is about 13,000 tons, chiefly anthra- cite coal, although some bituminous is handled for local industries. Wamsutta wharf.--This is an open wharf except for one coal dis- charging tower with one single boom derrick and railroad scale shed located on the south face of wharf near east end. The coal discharging equipment is operated by steam and consists of a single whip cable with ordinary trip or self-dumping buckets filled by hand. The coal is dumped into a hopper over standard gauge railroad spur on wharf; thence directly into cars; thence weighed on track scales and hauled by locomotive or horses to two cotton mills and one large copper manufacturing concern in the vicinity. Other freight vessels such as lumber, brick, etc., are discharged by hand and distributed by teams or motor trucks. NEw BEDFord, MAss., February 28, 1919. DEAR SIR: In answer to yours of February 27, relative to making a report from your department in regard to water terminals and transfer facilities to the United States Government, I desire to state that as soon as the armistice was signed the Federal Rail- road Commission took away all of the rights of shipping by water, putting absolutely in the power and the hands of the railroad the shipping of all cottons, thereby prac- tically prohibiting any transportation to our port. We have been 15 years obtaining a harbor and a pier suitable for the receipt of cotton direct from the south. We have expended over a million and a half dollars for that purpose and find that the United States Government has declared them null and void by the aforesaid action. This seems to me a very vital point with all coastwise cities and when we find that the Shipping Board of the United States has steamers laid up with nothing to do, where transportation could be greatly reduced in cost and where we use, in our city and in Fall River a million bales of cotton a year and also can ship direct to Lowell and ail other cities in New England using cotton, it surely looks as if this was of paramount importance to any other subject that we could talk about for the interests of New Bedford. I shall be more than pleased to endeavor to cooperate with you in giving you any and all inform ution relative to the situation of our city. I am referring your letter to the city engineer with directions to forward to you any available data relative to the Subject matter. Very truly, yours, Col. J. H. WILLARD, United States Army, retired, United States Engineer Office, Newport, R. I. CHAs. S. As HLEY, Mayor. .# NEw BEDFORD, MAss., March 13, 1919. DEAR SIR: In accordance with your request, I have had a report on the conditions of New Bedford harbor prepared by the city engineer, and am submitting the same to you. Very respectfully, CHAs. S. ASHLEY, Mayor. Col. J. H. WILLARD, United States Army, retired, United States Engineer Office, Newport, R. I. CITY OF NEW BEDFORD, MAss.-NEw BEDFORD HARBOR, 1919. New Bedford, a manufacturing city of about 120,000 inhabitants, is situated in sputheastern Massachusetts latitude N. 40° 38' 6", longitude W. 70° 55' 40’’. The port of New Bedford consists of the lower harbor 2.58 miles long, 2 miles wide, containing 3,272 acres. This is entirely landlocked, except on the south, where it opens into Buzzards Bay with an operfing about 3 miles wide at a point 11 miles from the open ocean. This portion of the harbor is entirely, undeveloped, except for a channel 300 feet wide and 25 feet deep at low water, leading to the upper harbor. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 171 The upper harbor, which is fully developed on the west, or New Bedford shore, ..and partially developed on the east, or Fairhaven shore, consists of 513 acres lying between Palmers Island on the south and the New Bedford & Fairhaven bridge on the north. It is 3,550 feet wide and 6,300 feet long, and has an area of 513 acres, 169 of which are dredged to a depth of 25 feet at low water. The wharves on the westerly side have berths with from 16 to 25 feet of water at low tide. The rise and fall of the tide is 3.6 feet. - The river is that portion lying north of the New Bedford & Fairhaven bridge and is 14,000 feet long, and from 170 to 4,000 feet wide, containing 500 acres. This has a channel and turning basin 25 feet deep at low water in the southerly portion, and 18 feet at low water for a distance of 3,700 feet northerly. A tide-water port is of great advantage to any community large enough to require supplies in vessel-load quantities. New Bedford has reached this point in regard to shipments of both coal and cotton. As the number of seaports is limited, their value to the country at large is greatest as points of transshipment of water-borne freight for distribution to the interior. In this connection, those ports will be first developed and grow which have the greatest natural advantage as distributing points. This has occurred in the case of such ports as Savannah, Norfolk, Baltimore, Delaware River, New York, and Boston, where conditions are now crowded and rentals high. The secondary ports, among which New Bedford may be classed, will next need to be developed, and it is entirely con- ceivable that eventually ports will need to be developed at great expense which now have no natural harbors. The chief value of a port lies in the close union between the docks and rail terminals with enough warehouses to act as a reservoir when shipments in either direction are in excess of docking facilities. Those ports will be of the greatest value where access by water is most advantageous and the railroads led by easy grades and direct lines to the points where the commodities are to be used. In these regards we can consider first the location of New Bedford as to its situation relative to water routes. The eastern coast of the United States is divided into two Sections by Cape Cod and its extension by Nantucket Islands and its shoals extending about 100 miles at right angles to the trend of the coast. North of this we have rocky shore, the cold water of the Labrador current, and tides of 10 feet or more. South of Cape Cod, we have sandy shores, the warmer waters of the Gulf Stream, with tides from 3 to 4 feet. For a vessel to pass north of Cape Cod it must either go many miles off shore around Nantucket Shoals or across the shoals between Cape Cod and Nantucket through Crooked, shifting channels, with much delay and attended in the past with many dis- asters and great loss of life. There is now a third alternative, as vessels may use the Cape Cod Canal which saves time and avoids danger, but introduces a new item of 62XI)éIlSè. ew Bedford, with a good harbor, capable of much further development, is situated at the northerly extremity of this southern section of our coast and in the matter of navigation is the natural distribution point for New England of our coastwise freight. As regards rail facilities, it will be seen from a map that the hills and valleys of New England trend from north to south and that from New Bedford northerly a double-track railroad extends, spreading by connection in a fan shape and reaching all the industrial centers of the interior by easy grades so that from this point of view New Bedford appears to be an ideal distributing point. PRESENT FA CILITIES. At the present time 4,616 feet of New Bedford's water front of 31,932 feet, or 14 per cent, are developed for use of vessels, while 830 feet of the opposite shores of Fairhaven and Acushnet out of 27,040 feet, or 3 per cent, are developed; the balance of the water front being available for improvement. 172 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The actual length of dock face in New Bedford is 17,849 feet.

This plant equipped mainly for transshipment but was undergoing extensive repairs in 1918. * On ground unlimited. All of these, with the exception of the three industrial plants, are available for the coaling of vessels. On account of the large manufacturing plants located in New Bedford, there are Several well-equipped boiler and machine shops where repairs to the machinery of vessels can be made. One of these shops now makes a specialty of marine work, and does a large amount of work for the United States Government on the lightships and tenders. now engaged in fitting one of the ways to care for vessels up to 5,000 tons. There is a marine railway and dock yards located in Fairhaven, with five ways accommodating drafts up to 15 feet and tonnage up to 1,500 tons. They are WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 173 The city of New Bedford is served by the New York, New Haven & Hartford Rail- road, which operates a double-track road extending out of the city to the north, a single-track road from New Bedford to Fall River, and a single-track road from Fair- Haven to Cape Cod. The railroad owns 604 feet of frontage developed with docks with linear frontage of 3,418 feet, from which are operated steamers from New Bed- ford to New York, Marthas Vineyard, and Nantucket, and a ferry to Fairhaven in connection with the railroad at that point. The railroad also owns 2,814 feet of undeveloped shore north of the New Bedford and Fairhaven bridge, adjacent to its freight yards. This could be very easily converted into a deep-water frontage with track and warehouse facilities by constructing a bulkhead and dredging on the outside and depositing the material on the inside of the same, which is the cheapest method of dock construction. At its present docks the railroad has located its terminal for the passenger and freight line to New York by which most of the cotton used in this district and the inland cities as far north as Lewiston, Me., is shipped. A freight house is located on the wharf at this point with double track and platform where they have handled as high as 2,500 bales of cotton in one day. The railroad has another warehouse in the northerly section of the city with about the same capacity but with rail connections only. At this point they have handled 53,000 bales of cotton per month. The city of New Bedford transferred its ownership of two wharves to the State of Massachusetts, and the State has erected a modern pier with 25 feet of water and two berths of 600 and 675 feet length on the two sides. A two-story steel warehouse with capacity of 15,000 bales of cotton without tiering is located on the wharf and has two railroad tracks through the building. The city still retains ownership of the two wharves adjoining this on the north, with a river frontage of 378 feet and dock face frontage of 1,292 feet. These two wharves have berths of 12 and 19 feet depth, respectively, and are used for general purposes by small vessels. They are used very largely for the fish business by vessels operating between Cape Cod and Block Island, both for local supply and transship- ment. The Vineyard boats also bring large quantities of fish and shell fish to New Bedford for transshipment to New York. The city's wharves are capable of the same development as the State pier, and, as they adjoin the railroad on the shore side, can be readily provided with track facilities. There are at the present time three large storage warehouses in New Bedford in addition to those of the railroad and State. These have railroad connections only at the present time, but one corporation which has a building located on the west of the railroad north of the city wharf is contemplating the erection of another east of the tracks with frontage on the river with a berth 25 feet deep at low water, thus giving both buildings rail and water connections. There are no port charges other than the regular customs of the United States com- mon to all ports and the fees of quarantine physicians for vessels engaged in foreign trade. The administration of the harbor is under the direction of the harbor master and the quarantine regulations are under the directions of the board of health. In compliance with your request, the laws and ordinance in regard to the appointments and regulations are appended.

A good channel with 25 feet of water at low water and an anchorage basin have been provided by the Government, although the latter is not yet complete. The State of Massachusetts has provided a modern pier and warehouses and the city of New Bedford has provided wharves which are in constant use by smaller vessels. Private individuals and corporations have erected fine modern discharging plants for the transshipment of coal by rail. The government of the city of New Bedford and its commercial organizations have always been alive to the needs of the city for port development and zealous in its interests. From the above data it would appear that present facilities are in excess of their commercial use, although unbalanced conditions sometimes make them seem insuffi- cient. I believe, however, that the future will demand a far greater expansion of our harbor facilities. This can readily be accomplished by the construction of bulkheads, and dredging and filling from Maxfield Street northerly and track connection can be easily provided for in this locality. The greatest possibilities, however, lie south of the present wharf development, where a bulkhead can be built from Howland Street southerly to the Government property at the end of Clarks Point. This will give a bulkhead frontage of 12,311 feet, and a dock frontage far in excess of this if the pier type of construction is used. Any desired width can be secured in this location and the land required made by dredging and filling behind the bulkhead wall. Track facilities can be obtained by extending the present lines through four industrial properties, which can be done without excessive damage, and should be done at once to prevent increased expense. The balance of the project could then be deferred until demanded by commercial needs. This enterprise should be carried out under public ownership and control. {espectfully submitted. e GEORGE H.

Fall River Harbor, Mass., is situated at the mouth of Taunton River, which empties into the northeast angle of Mount Hope Bay, connecting with the ocean through Narragansett Bay and the Sakonnet River. It is the port of entry of the city of Fall River, one of the largest cotton manufacturing cities of the United States. There is but slight protection from storms from the southwest, but from other directions it is practically landlocked. It extends about 13 miles in a northeast and southwest direction and is from one- fourth to five-eighths of a mile in width. The commercial wharves are all on the east side of the river and the city lies on high ground back from the wharves. - The project for improvement, now completed, provides for the deepening of the harbor to 25 feet at mean low water and dredging a channel 300 feet wide of the same depth across Mount Hope Bay, 176 WATER TERMINAT, AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. a distance of about 4 miles, whence the deep and unobstructed water through Narragansett Bay is available to the ocean. The mean range of tide is 4.9 feet. The general character of the commerce is coal, general merchan- dise, cotton, and small amounts of building material, gasoline, oil, fish, hay, grain, etc. The total tonnage in 1917 amounted to 1,469,750 tons, about 62 per cent of which was coal, 33 per cent general merchandise, 2% per cent cotton, 2% per cent of other mate- rials, or about 62 per cent of bulk cargoes and 38 per cent package freight. Coal, the largest item of tonnage brought to the harbor, is carried in steam colliers with a draft of 18 to 24 feet, with cargo capacities of 2,100 to 3,500 tons, and coal barges of a great variety of sizes varying from a draft of 9 feet to 24 feet, carrying from 400 tons to 3,600 tons, the lighter draft barges in use for Taunton River. The package freight and cotton are carried chiefly in regular line steamers, both passenger and freight and freight alone, to and from New York, with draft of 13 to 18 feet, and in a small line to and from Providence. The coal received is handled by 10 concerns on the water front, two of which are small, using only a derrick with a swinging boom. The others are equipped with efficient steam or electric-driven mechanical appliances adequate for present conditions and with reserve capacity for a large increase. Four of these are for the exclu- sive use of owners, one for transfer from water to rail, one for transfer to smaller boats for Taunton River and local distribution, and four for local distribution. The package freight is practically all moved by hand truck, assorted and loaded into cars or from cars to boat within the transit shed on the wharves of the steamship company, which appears to be an efficient method, considering the frequency of the trips, daily, running at night and lying at the pier all day, and the assortment required for local delivery and rail shipment. The terminals are adequate for handling the present commerce. The average tonnage for the past five years has been slightly less than 1,500,000 tons; prospectively, it is hoped in common with the other two important ports of the district—Providence and New Bedford— to establish a cotton pier and warehouse for storage at one or all of these ports at which cotton may be landed in vessel loads from the South and eliminate the apparently unnecessary rehandling at New York. This would require a very considerable modification in the present methods of handling that material. The port is administered under the supervision of the harbor master appoin ed by the city. There are no port charges other than those for wharfage, customs dues, etc. Three wharf sites are owned by the city of Fall River upon one of which, in the upper part of the harbor, there is a pier extending out to a depth of about 11 feet of water. This is a masonry pier with a small building used as a harbor master's office. There is no shed or other structure. The second city property is in the lower part of the harbor about one mile south of this site at the foot of Ferry Street in the lower part of the harbor. The pier at this site extends out to a depth of about 3 feet of water and at present is out of use for commercial purposes. It is conveni- ently situated for railroad connection, and a very slight exten- sion of the pier would reach naturally deep water. This site is under consideration for a proposed municipal pier. The third city H. Doc. 652, 66-2, | ， ، ، ، ، ، ، ، ، ،ſae COAL UNLOADING AND STORAGE PIER, FALL RIVER, MASS. 170 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 177 site, with a front of about 700 feet, is about one-half mile farther south, and is not improved by any wharf structure. The work of harbor improvement was completed in 1914, and since that date ºthere has been very little interest shown in the improvement, until recently; some agitation has been manifest concerning the construc- tion of a municipal pier in which it is proposed the city should furnish the site and shore appurtenances and the State of Massachusetts should build the pier. The available terminal facilities are used, but since they are nearly all under railroad domination, except the industrial terminals, there appears to be very little advance either in increase of tonnage or additional facilities. There are good rail and water connections at the New England Steamship Co.'s wharves and for coal at the Globe Wharf, Atlantic Coal Co. No other wharves are directly connected by rail. That portion of the railroad north of the New England Steamship Co.'s property raises the grade so rapidly that the wharves in the northern part of the harbor are 20 feet or more below the railroad grade. Joint ownership is believed to be objectionable under circumstances ‘such as those at Fall River where a single railroad serves the whole community, tending to curtail the number of water lines and reducing them to those concerned in the ownership and to just sufficient to care for the surplus freight which the railroad is unable to handle, without special regrad to the lower cost of carrying by water lines. It is believed that such ownership has a tendency to bring the cost of water transportation to the level of the railroad rate and nullify the advantage of the lower water cost. Absolute independence of rail and water lines would necessitate enforced equal treatment of all water lines by railroad. The harbor as a whole may be regarded as reasonably efficient under existing conditions, but does not appear to increase in com- mercial importance. Fall River is the principal New England southern terminal for the joint passenger business of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad and the Faiffiver Line of steamers for New York from which there results a very considerable trans- portation business through the harbor. But as one of the three important harbors of this district with good locations on the southern shore of New England and good approaches from the ocean without the necessity of passing Cape Cod, and backed by an active industrial country, the raw material for which is very largely drawn from the South and the distribution of a large part of the product is made to the same section; there does not appear to be that freedom of ex- change that might be expected from sections so favorably situated for water transportation. Such demand for coaling as exists under present conditions is met by chutes provided at the Rodman Wharf, where the local towboats of the Staples Transportation Co. are coaled. Any demand for bunker coal can readily be met by lighters loaded at the same wharf or at the Globe Wharf, where small barges are loaded for Taunton River. At the present time there is but slight demand for bunker coal, as the boats running to Fall River are generally from southern ports, where more favorable coal prices prevail. . A small shipyard with marine railway, having a capacity for about 2,500-ton vessels, has recently been built on the westerly side of the harbor and is available for vessel repairs. A machine shop at this 164681—H.

There are four public warehouses in the city for cotton or waste storage, aggregating a capacity of 70,000 bales. These are Fall River warehouse, Central Street, Keough Storage Co., foot of Central Street; Watuppa Warehouse Co., 698 Rodman Street; MacKenzie & Winslow (ne.) Warehouse, Rodman Street. In addition to these, the mills, about 115 in number, have an estimated storage capacity of about 200,000 bales.

Hopper delivers to cars on stock-pile trestle, operated by continuous cable- way with a 20-horsepower motor, the cars delivering to storage in open with about 500,000 square feet of surface area, , Coal from storage delivered by electrically operated loading machines to cars on surface operated by electric trolley system, which dump into hopper on west side of boiler house, feeding a toothed crusher Oper- ated by 20-horsepower motor, all below surface level. After passing crusher coal is raised 75 feet by bucket elevator with 20-horsepower motor, delivered to a bucket conveyor with 20-horsepower motor, which delivers to a series of hoppers; from hoppers, coal goes by gravity through chutes to automatic stoker for each boiler. Boiler floor is above surface. Ashes go to overhead ash hoppers where they are sprinkled and drawn periodically into ash cars on the surface level, trammed to elevated concrete ash hopper outside of boiler room by hand, raised and dumped in hopper by electric hoist, and drawn from bottom of hopper into carts for removal from plant. Under present conditions, ashes are removed without cost to the company. Coal storage capacity in open is approximately 20,000 tons. TAUNTON RIVER, MASS. Taunton River rises in Norfolk County, Mass., flows in a general south by west direction about 44 miles and empties into Mount Hope Bay, the name given to that part of Narragansett Bay which branches to the northeast and at the head of which is the city of Fall River. It is a tidal river for 21 miles above its mouth. The portion the river under improvement is about 6 miles in length and extends from Dighton, about 8 miles above its mouth, to Weir village, in Taunton, about 14 miles above the mouth. The existing project for improve- ment provides for a channel 12 feet deep at mean high water and 100 feet wide up to Berkeley Bridge, about 1 mile above Dighton; thence the same depth and 80 feet wide to Briggs Shoal; thence same width and 11 feet depth to the shipyard in Weir; then the same depth and 60 feet wide to Weir Bridge, the upper end of the improvement. The mean tidal variation is 4.9 feet at the mouth of the river, 5.5 feet at Dighton, and 3.4 feet at Weir Bridge. The general character of the commerce consists of coal, fire clay, fire bricks, molding sand, and miscellaneous items. About 90 per cent is coal. The total commerce for 1917 amounted to 128,251 short tons. The vessels carrying this freight are largely light-draft barges, and a few schooners, all of which are towed, and a considerable number of small passenger and freight, steam and gasoline boats. Very nearly all of the traffic is inbound and reaches Taunton. 180 WATER TERMINAT, AND THANSFER FACILITIES. In Weir village, which is that portion of Taunton through which the river passes, there are four wharves at which practically all the water traffic is handled; at other unused wharves there is so very little depth of water that their use for any commercial purpose is impracticable. Of the four wharves in use, two are owned by the Staples Coal Co., one of which has a frontage of 865 feet along the river, with a low water depth of from 6.8 to 8.9 feet, and is provided with a steam-operated coal-hoisting tower, with endless cable-car haulage to bins and stock pile. The other, which is above the draw- bridge, is similarly equipped, and has a water frontage of 200 feet, with a depth at mean low water of from 5 to 6.5 feet. - The Taunton Gas Co. has a wharf for the receipt of its coal, which has a frontage of 240 feet, with a low water depth of from 3 to 4.3 feet, equipped with a steam-operated hoisting tower; trestle to storage sheds and automatic return car system. - The Williams Stove Lining Works wharf has a frontage of 260 feet, with a depth at mean low water up to 4.5 feet, and a horse- Operated dº at which fire clay and molding sand are received. The total width of the river at this point is about 100 feet, and all wharves are parallel to the bank and are of dry masonry and piles. Below the village of Weir, the wharves are mainly at North Dighton, Dighton, and Somerset. These wharves are of dry masonry and piles, and within recent years have been very little used. Remains of several landings which in former days served small settlements back from the river are seen at low tide. - In Wier village, the city of Taunton owns a wharf on the west side of the river having a front of 100 feet, with a depth of water of from 2.8 to 5.4 feet. There appears to be no special local ordinances applicable to the river and }. wharf is little used. It is probable that the navigation facilities of the river are so limited that efforts looking toward the extensive betterment of the water terminals are considered unnecessary, especially as the demand for their use is fully met by existing terminals. There are no direct connections between rail and water lines along the river, although express trolley lines approach close to the wharves in Weir. This is a locality particularly adapted to the development of transportation by motor truck if suitable water transportation was available for within a distance of 12 miles from Weir there was a prewar investment of $44,481,161 of capital in manufacturing indus- tries using $51,048,640 worth of raw materials, with a product valued at $82,562,715, none of which, with the possible exception of a small amount of coal, was received or shipped out by way of this river, nor is there any other water transportation as conveniently available. NEWPORT HARBOR, R. I. Newport Harbor is at the main entrance from the ocean to Narra- gansett Bay. There are two harbors, usually designated as the inner and Outer harbors, separated from each other by Goat Island, which is all occupied by the United States naval torpedo station. All Commercial operations are conducted at the wharves of the inner harbor, which lies within an indentation in the western shore line of the island of Rhode Island, and is protected on the west by Goat Island and a breakwater extending about 1,260 feet north from its WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 181 northern end, and from other directions by the shores of the island of Rhode Island. It is about 1.1 miles long, with widths varying from 1,500 to 2,000 feet, narrowing at its northern entrance to 750 feet. The chief features of the improvement made by the United States have consisted in increasing the depth to 18 feet at mean low water in a channel 750 feet wide around the southern end of Goat Island and northward, along the easterly side of that island, through the harbor, and extending the same depth from the channel to the wharves along the water front of Newport for an anchorage area, with about an average of 2,500 feet north and south by 1,350 feet east and west, in addition to which a depth of 13 feet has been dredged southerly from this 18 feet deep area to the southerly harbor line, except at one point, where a ledge of rock extended out beyond this line. The mean tidal range is 3.5 feet. Newport has so little manufacturing outside of Government opera- tions that it may be considered negligible in so far as it affects the commerce. The surrounding country is agricultural. The commerce of the port consists of coal, about 61 per cent in 1917, oil, building material, merchandise, and fish and shell fish, amounting in 1917 to about 204,701 net tons. The largest vessels using the harbor are the steamers of the New England Steamship Co. on their route between Fall River and New York. Two of these steamers daily stop at Newport; these vessels are from 3,000 to 6,000 gross tons register. The harbor is also largely used, more so in normal times than at present, as a point for distribution and make-up of tows of coal barges. The large sea-going towboats with a tow of barges, one or more of which bound for Narragansett Bay points will be left at Newport, and the others carried east; on the return trip empty barges are º up at Newport and taken south with the tow from the east. he harbor is also used in stormy weather by the fishing vessels fol- lowing school fish up the coast and by the vessels of the permanently operating fishermen in this locality. Three lines of Government ferries, and one public ferry to Jamestown, are in constant operation. Local steamboat lines run to Providence and Block Island and besides there are large numbers of small boats for pleasure and small boats used by lobstermen. The New England Steamship Co. owns three of the most important wharves in the harbor, one of which is for storage of their own ves- sels, one for repairs, and the other for passegner and freight business of the so-called Fall River Line, which carries nearly all the water- borne package freight coming to and leaving Newport. The tracks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford j. extend nearly to the end of the wharf, and there are fairly good transfer facilities by the use of hand trucks between rail and water, although most of the business is carried on at Fall River. The city of Newport owns a wharf on the northerly side of the harbor, which is used for city purposes and for loading a scow with swill for towing to sea. This wharf is open to public use for loading or discharging for the city and for the public when not in use by the city. The depth of water at this wharf is about 9 feet. Several recreation piers are owned by the city but serve no direct commercial purpose. There appears to be little direct interest shown with regard to the improvement of terminal facilities, either by the city authorities or 182 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the public generally, excepting in cases where individual interests may be concerned. The only rail and water connection is that of the New England Steamship Co. and the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, referred to above. - Minor repairs to machinery can be made at the shops in the city and large repairs under emergency at the shops of the New England Steamship Co. Two marine railways are available for smaller ves- sels. Ample storage exists for the coal required by the community and cold storage for fish. The north side of the inner harbor is bounded by a structure about 1,625 feet long, known as Long wharf, which in colonial days was extensively used, but the water area north of this has been filled in, buildings erected, and a street laid out, so that it has lost the sem- blance of a wharf now. From the south side of this extends the city wharf and a few small piers used for small boat repairs. The western end forms the freight and passenger wharf used by the New England Steamship Co. It is a substantial structure of masonry and piles about 600 by 200 feet. Tracks of the railroad company extend nearly to the end and large transit and storage sheds are built on it, covering an area of about 40,000 square feet. The steam- ers of the Wickford route (railroad) to New York use this wharf. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight, which is all moved about, sorted for local delivery or rail distribution by hand trucks. Fish are packed for shipment to New York in barrels and delivered from the fishing vessels on the wharf, whence they are put on board the steamers with hand trucks. The repair wharf, next above the freight and passenger wharf, is a substantial structure of masonry and piles. Tracks extend over and the machine shops, boiler shops, and offices are built near the shore end. The only appliance for handling freight is an 80-ton pair of shears used for placing heavy parts in the vessel. No other wharves in the city have rail connections except one local line, on the wharf of which there is connection with a trolley line. The facilities for terminals and transfer seem to be adequate for the present and prospective requirements of commerce. The local de; mand is not sufficient to warrant the encouragement of additional transportation lines. - The harbor is under the administration of a harbor master ap- pointed by the city government. There are no port charges other than penalties for violation of the city ordinances and quarantine regulations. PROVIDENCE RIVER AND HARBOR, R. I. Providence River is about 8 miles in length and empties into Narragansett Bay. The existing project. of improvement provides for a depth of 30 feet at mean low Water in the upper portion of the river for a length of about 1.6 miles with a width of from 1,400 to 1,800 feet, usually designated as the harbor, and the approach channel, 8.8 miles long and 600 feet wide to the 30-foot contour in Narragansett fay, below which there is unobstructed natural deep water out to the ocean, about 27 miles below Providence. The mean range of tide is 4.7 feet. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 183 The country back from Providence for many miles is a densely populated, active, industrial section with a large manufacturing capacity in cotton and woolen goods, machinery, iron, steel and cop- per, electrical equipment and rubber goods. Practically all raw material is imported and the manufactured goods are shipped away. In addition to this, the port is growing as a distributing point for petroleum products and a large tract of land, about 1,200 acres, has been purchased by one of the leading oil companies which it is pro- posed to use for refining the crude oil and securing its products. Three other large oil companies have stations within the limits of the shores bordering the harbor to which the oil is brought from ports on the Gulf of Mexico and on the Atlantic coast. The total water-borne commerce of the port amounted in the calendar year 1917 to 3,406,224 tons, about 60 per cent of which was coal, 11 per cent oil, 21 per cent general merchandise, 2 per cent cotton, and the remainder building material, fertilizers, and miscel- laneous items, all of which might again be classified as 71 per cent of bulk cargoes and 29 per cent of package freight, inbound and out- bound. Coal, by far the largest item of tonnage handled, is brought to Providence in steam colliers with a draft of from 18 to 25 feet, carrying cargoes of from 3,000 to 7,000 tons, and in towed barges of a great variety of sizes, varying in draft from 10 feet to 27 feet and in carrying capacity from 600 to 3,000 tons, the smaller barges coming from New York ports with anthracite coal and the larger from Phila- delphia, Paltimore, and Norfolk. A few large schooners continue to carry coal. The Óil trade is carried on in tank steamers with a draft of 18 to 27 feet, the largest yet arriving being capable of carrying 90,000 barrels of oil with a 30-foot draft. Tank barges of from 12 to 20 feet draft are also used in this trade. The package freight is carried largely in regular lines of freight and passenger steamers. Three lines making daily trips each way between Providence and New York, using large and able vessels of the side-wheel type with a draft of from 13 to 15 feet, and one biweekly line to Norfolk and Baltimore, screw steamers, with a draft of from 18 to 22 feet. In addition to the above there are two local lines of steamboats and one line of lighters running to points in Narragansett isay and to Block Island and a large number of gasoline-driven oyster boats. All coal received at Providence is for local consumption or for inland distribution by rail. it is handled by electrically or steam driven plant, varying in type from the small derrick with a swinging boom and tip bucket loaded by hand to the elaborate gantry cranes with grab buckets, trolleys, and conveyors or slowly moving cars auto- matically dumped over bin or stock pile. For local distribution the coal is dumped from bins to wagons or trucks and for inland shipment into railroad cars. The mechanical means for handling coal seems to be ample and efficient, with a desire on the part of large operators to introduce improved apparatus which will facilitate the service for which the terminals are designed; that is, whether for local distribu- tion, for inland shipment, or for consumption in industrial plants at the terminal. The package freight is practically all loaded and discharged by hand trucks, which seems an efficient method, having in view the volume and the large amount of sorting necessary for delivery to local trucks or wagons and putting on board various cars for inland shipment, and the frequency of the trips made by the water carriers. 184 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Each cargo is practically cleaned up while the vessel is at the pier and the return cargo put aboard; there is very little demand for storage of any part of the cargo. The New York lines make their runs in one night so that they are at the end of the line through the entire day. Coaling is done at the New York end. - Oil is pumped ashore from vessels through pipe lines into tanks at a sufficient elevation to permit of a flow by gravity into tank cars: for inland distribution or into trucks or small scows for local distri- bution. The terminals are adequate for handling the present commerce. The prospective requirements of the port are very considerable and if fully developed will necessitate considerable addition to the terminal facilities, and the city of Providence has now in contemplation the construction of a large pier and cotton storehouse to cost approxi- mately $6,000,000. This will introduce a new feature into the port and would be supplied with appropriate handling appliances with which to store the cotton at the point of its receipt until ready for consumption. Providence Harbor, between Jndia Point and Kettle Point, has a water front of 6 miles. About 12 per cent of this is publicly owned' by the city and State. The harbor is under the supervision of a harbor master appointed by the city authorities and matters con- nected with wharf construction are controlled by a State board of harbor commissioners. Great public interest is shown in the improvement of the harbor and more than $2,000,000 has been expended in improvement of harbor facilities by the State and city and the expenditure of much. larger sums by the city is in contemplation. Great concern is ex- pressed by those interested in shipping, but the result in increased commerce is not so apparent as in the public expenditures made. Rail and water connections exist at most of the principal terminals. in the harbor, a very important consideration where material is to. be distributed to and collected from the back country. Joint owner- ship is believed to be objectionable under circumstances such as those at Providence where a single railroad serves the whole com- munity, tending to curtail the number of water lines and reducing them to those concerned in the ownership, and to just sufficient to. care for the surplus freight which the railroad is unable to handle, without special regard to the lower cost of carrying by water lines. It is believed that such ownership has a tendency to bring the cost. of water transportation to the level of the railroad rate and nullify the advantages of the lower water cost. About 14 per cent of the entire water front is owned by the railroad company and is unused for any purpose other than storage of vessels out of commission or empty coal barges awaiting towage back to coal ports. Along this front extensive trackage facilities exist and were at one time largely used by the Merchants & Miners Transportation Co., the Winsor Line to Philadelphia, and as a coal station for the railroad. About 10 per cent of the total water front, in addition to the above, is also owned and in use by the railroad company. At this port, it is believed that absolute independence of rail and water lines and enforced equal treatment to all of the latter would greatly enhance the benefits to be derived from the water lines and the great ex- penditure for improvements to promote water transportation. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 185 The harbor is most advantageously situated for the southern traffic of New England. It lies near the head of Narragansett Bay, which enters the ocean through a deep and unobstructed channel at a point a little east of the center of the long east and west shore line extending from New York to Cape Cod, forming the southern coast of New England and with its northern extension reaches almost halfway to Boston; and a slight advantage, over New York, as to distance from Nantucket Shoals Light vessel for trans-Atlantic traffic, which, however, has never developed to any great extent. The cost of the improvements made by the United States and by the city and State in providing terminal facilities approximate $6,000,000, the interest on which at 4 per cent represents a tax of about 6 cents per ton on the normal 4,000,000 tons of freight. So far as location and the available facilities are concerned, Provi- dence is regarded as an efficient port. Coaling facilities are not in demand, as the vessels arriving come chiefly from southern ports where coal is cheaper and easily obtainable, but any coal for vessels for other destinations can be easily secured by lighter or otherwise. Repair facilities for large vessels are now in course of preparation by the Marine Engineering & Dry Dock Co. At present there is a floating dry dock with a capacity of about 800 tons. The Terminal Storage & Warehouse Co. offers 2,884,460 cubic feet of space for storage in a well-constructed brick building on the wharf of the company. The State pier has a well-constructed steel shed two stories high with accommodations for immigrants on the second floor and 48,000 square feet storage room on the first floor, with railroad tracks, through the center. The steel boiler shop erected on the city wharf at Fields Point by the Bethlehem Steel Co. in connection with its war work, containing about 75,000 square feet of floor, is to be acquired by the city as soon as the lease expires and will be used for storage purposes. The storage problem for miscellaneous freight seems well provided for and any demand for additional facilities would be promptly met. Storage warehouses in the city of Providence, to wº. drayage amounting to about 80 cents per ton would be required to connect with water lines, are: Broadway Storage Co., Merritt and Federal Streets. Cady Moving & Storage Co., 62 Dudley Street. Orrin E. Jones, 936 Westminster street. A. B. McCrillis & Sons (Inc.), 360 Canal Street. Merchants Cold Storage & Warehouse Co., 3,000,000 cubic feet, 160 Kinsley Avenue. Peoples Storage Warehouse Co., Allens Avenue. Providence Warehouse Co., 20 Mason Street. Rhode Island Warehouse Co., 52 South Water Street. For coal, there is ample storage. With a harbor which lacks only in anchorage room, but possessing excellent location and terminal facilities and the support and interest of the State and city authorities, there has been a considerable falling off in freight handled on the water since 1913, when the ton- nage amounted to 4,539,805 short tons against 3,406,224 short tons in 1917. Whether this is entirely due to the abnormal times that existed during that period, or as believed by many to be due to railroad opposition to water transportation, is not known, but the railroad-controlled vessels seem to be doing a fairly prosperous business. A complete separation of the two would appear to be the remedy which would restore water transportation to its state of I86 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. independence with resulting lower rates and avoidance of congestion, to which should be added efficient railroad control as to rates and an equalization of service to all water lines which could be readily accomplished with rails surrounding the harbor on all sides. The facilities for lighterage in the harbor and to the cities reached from Narragansett Bay consist of two steam lighters and six open deck lighters in good condition and well equipped for work. Light- erage about the harbor is about 75 cents per ton. There are five tugs regularly employed in harbor work. They are in good condition and well suited for the work. The rise and fall of the tide is about 5 feet and no special facilities are required for loading and unloading. Facilities for bunker coal for large steamships are not good at present, but they can be quickly installed at Wilkesbarre Pier, at the Castner, Curran & Bullitt plant, or by lighter. Facilities for bunker oil are good at the wharves of the large oil companies. Municipal wharf-On the west side of Providence Harbor there is, between Fields Point and Sassafras Point, a masonry wall pro- tected by piles, about 3,000 feet long with a depth of 30 feet along its face for the whole length. Tailway tracks connecting with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad extend along the entire length near the face of the wharf, making the transfer of cargo con- venient. Portions of this wharf are under lease to the Lord Con- struction Co., an agency of the United States Shipping Board, for fitting out wooden hulls built for the Government; to the Bethlehem Steel Co. for boiler making for certain classes of naval vessels; and to Castner, Curran & Bullitt (Inc.), coal dealers, leaving about 1,200 feet of face now open to the general public use. With the expira- tion of the lease . the Bethlehem Steel Co., it is the expectation of the city to take over the steel boiler shop, 500 by 150 feet (75,000 square feet), for a transit and storage shed on the wharf and to add locomotive cranes for handling cargo, with telphers for its move- ment and ‘‘sorting.” An excellent highway connects the wharf with the city streets. The rates of wharfage in effect March, 1918, are as follows: All classes of freight, 20 cents per ton (as per bill of lading), or ; cent per cubic foot, the rate netting the greatest amount to be used. These rates apply to nonperishable freight only and are to be charged whether the º is inward or outward bound. A charge of $2 per car is made for use of railroad whether cars are used for inbound or outbound freight. Empty cars free. Inactive dockage, 10 cents per day per foot of length of vessel. Open storage, 5 cents per ton month. Cranage rates upon inquiry. For confirmation of rates and for securing unloading space, apply to City Engineer's Office, City Hall, Providence, R. T. Sand or gravel taken for ballast or any other purpose will be charged at 10 cents per cubic yard. * Plant of Castner, Curram dé hift (Inc.) (Darrow dº Mann).-- On Municipal Wharf at Fields Point. ... Coal handling plant: Two gantry cranes on elevated track electrically operated, one-man trolley type. Two clamshell buckets, 3 tons capacity each; total capacity, 300 tons per hour for each bridge. Coal is delivered into pockets or in stock pile on wharf; thence into wagons or trucks or into rail- road cars. For loading into lighters or small barges, an electrically driven conveyor is used with a large capacity. The storage capacity of the plant is 3,000 tons in pockets and 30,000 tons in open stock pile. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 187 Providence Gas Co., Sassafras Point . Wharf, immediately north of Municipal Wharf at Fields Point.—Coal handling plant for coal used in the manufacture of gas. Gantry crane with long bridge for unload- ing from barge. Coal raised with clamshell bucket of about 2 tons capacity and delivered to stock pile by trolley on bridge. Capacity of plant, about 700 tons per day of 10 hours. When plant is not engaged in unloading it is used to take coal from stock pile and dump it into hoppers from which it is carried by conveyors through crushers and delivered into hoppers at top of building for feeding into retorts. The handling plant is electrically operated. The storage capacity is very large, covering an area of about 500 feet by 200. State Pier No. 1, owned by the State of Rhode Island and operated by the State Harbor Commission.—This is a well-constructed pile pier 600 feet long, 120 feet wide, with an available dockage of 600 feet, 30 feet deep, and 720 feet 25 feet deep. Two-story steel freight shed, 120 by 400 feet, 48,000 square feet, through the center of which runs a spur track connecting with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad. Second story used chiefly for receipt of immi- grants. The only mechanical appliance for assisting in the handling of freight is the Burtoning electric hoist. The direct movement and sorting of freight is by hand truck. Very little freight passes over this pier at present, so that a portion of the shed is used for storage purposes. One side of this pier is leased to the Fabre Line of steamers running between New York and Mediterranean ports and has been but little used during the war. The wharfage charges are 1 cent per registered ton per 24 hours in addition to loading and unloading charge which varies with a long list of articles of different character and in different forms of package, but approximating 40 cents per * For vessels repairing, one-half the above wharfage rate is charged. * Seaconnet Coal Co.—This wharf is on the west side of the river, 2,600 feet south of Point Street Bridge. It is provided with three great buckets operated by steam from three hoisting towers, having a capacity of about 200 tons per hour. The coal is hoisted and dumped into self-dumping cars operated by an endless cable and automatically dumped into pockets of about 1,200 tons storage capacity or into a stock pile of about 20,000 tons capacity. Curran có Burton Coal Wharf.-This wharf is on the west side of the river, 700 feet south of Point Street Bridge. It is provided with three locomotive hoisting towers with swinging booms operated by steam and moving on an elevated railroad supported on a timber trestle. Coal is hoisted in clam-shell buckets and dumped into hop- pers leading to self-dumping cars operated by an endless cable and automatically dumped into pockets with a storage capacity of about 10,000 tons, or into a stock pile of about 15,000 tons capacity. Eastern Coal Co.—This wharf is on the west side of the Providence River south of the west end of Point Street bridge. It is provided with three locomotive hoisting towers with swinging booms operated by steam and moving on an elevated track supported on timber trestle. Coal is hoisted in clam-shell buckets with a capacity of 200 tons per hour and dumped into hoppers leading to self-dumping cars operated by an endless cable and automatically dumped into pockets and stock piles. Capacity of this yard about 16,000 tons. 188 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Narragansett Electric Lighting Co.—This wharf is on the west side of Providence River, 300 feet north of Point Street bridge. It is provided with a steel hoisting tower with boom and trolley, clam- shell bucket with a capacity of 100 tons per hour. Coal is dumped through hopper at level of top of building onto a conveyor which carries it to hoppers discharging into automatic stokers, or into a lower hopper, discharging onto storage conveyors along the face and side of the whalf, and thence to storage pockets and stock piles from which it is taken as required by conveyors and elevators back to the top of the building for delivery into hoppers over the stokers. Com- bined storage capacity, 40,000 tons. Plant operated by steam. Providence Line to New York.--On Fox Point at the junction of the Providence and Pawtucket (Seekonk) Rivers. This wharf is nearly covered by an open shed into which run the tracks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co. It is used for the receipt and delivery of general merchandise carried between Providence and New York. All freight is moved on the wharf by hand truck and is there sorted for local delivery or put directly on cars for interior distribu- tion. The small amount of storage required in this operation is pro- vided for by a frame storehouse covering about 3,000 square feet on this wharf. - A large section of the water front of the city extending from Fox Point to India Point is owned by the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co., and there is an available dockage of 3,000 feet with a low-water depth of 18 feet, a portion of which is used by the Merchants & Miners Transportation Co., carrying general merchan- dise between Providence and Norfolk and Baltimore. All freight on this line is hand trucked as on the wharf of the Providence Line. The railroad yards are directly back of this water front, and the tracks extend the full length and there are many freight sheds. Some of the wharves are in poor repair. Wilkes-Barre Pier of New York, New Haven dº Hartford Railroad Co.— This pier is on the east side of the river about 1,500 feet south of Fox Point. This is the chief pier for handling coal for interior ship- ment. None is distributed from it locally. It is equipped with four stationary hoisting towers with trolley booms and handling grab buckets, with an aggregate capacity of about 4,000 tons in eight hours from self-trimming vessels. The coal is hoisted and dumped into hoppers in the tower; thence chutes carry it to the standard- gauge cars on the tracks below. The cars are moved ahead as loaded, weighed on track scales, and made up into trains from the wharf. In addition, small cargoes of sand, plaster, and kaolin are handled at this pier; if destined for rail shipment, these are handled by boom derricks. Gulf Refining Co.—This wharf is on the east side of Providence Harbor, about 3,600 feet north of Kettle Point. It is provided with pipe lines for transporting oil to a large number of tanks, as shown in the accompanying photograph. The railroad tracks pass at the foot of the hill and the elevation of the tanks is such that cars are readily loaded by gravity. The wharf is approximately 800 feet long, with a berth dredged to a depth of 30 feet about 300 feet long, which accommodates the large tank steamers bringing oil from the Gulf ports. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 189 At Kettle Point the Mexican Petroleum Products Co. has another similar plant, and a short distance down the river, near Pomham Rocks Lighthouse, the Standard Oil Co. is developing a very extensive plant, ultimately to include refineries in addition to the distribution facilities. There is attached hereto a copy of the remarks of the mayor of Providence bearing on the subject of this report: CITY OF PROVIDENCE, ExECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, City Hall, March 3, 1919. MY DEAR Colon EL: Your letter of February 21 at hand. In reply I have separated the * topics and numbered them under headings so as to cover the subject as requested. 1. Terminal and transfer facilities: The present available facilities are the State pier, Merchants' & Miners’ Trans- portation pier, and municipal wharf. The State pier has available approximately 600 linear feet, with 30 feet at low tide, on one side of pier, and 600 fect, with 25 feet at low tide, on the opposite side of pier. There is a fireproof freight house, 120 by 400 feet, located thereon. The Merchants’ & Miners' Transportation wharf has approximately 1,200 feet, with wooden shed and railroad track back thereof, and with approximately 20 feet of water at low tide. At municipal wharf we have ap- proximately 1,200 feet of wharf open for business at this time. There is 30 feet of water at this location at low tide, with three marginal railroad tracks by which transfer of freight between water and rail or rail and water mav now be made. There is no freight house available at this location at this time. There is, however, a building 550 feet in length parallel with the water front by 150 feet in width, which is now owned by the United States Navy and used as a boiler shop by the Bethlehem Ship- building Corporation, which will become the property of the city of Providence in the immediate future and which it is intended to quickly alter and make adaptable as a freight house. Before the coming summer is over we will undoubtedly have an ideal freight terminal at municipal wharf, Fields Point. There is no cargo-unloading rigs at any of these locations with a possible exception of Burtoning rig at the State pier. The city of Providence is at present negotiating for the purchase of eight cargo- unloading cranes to be placed upon municipal wharf, and we are expecting that these Cranes will be in place for business during the summer or fall of the present year. 2. Adequacy of the terminal to meet present and prospective requirements of COIn InerCe: - - The present open wharves can accommodate a heavy tonnage. Municipal wharf and the State pier can accommodate vessels up to 30 feet draft and 600 feet in length, while the Merchants’ & Miners’ wharf can accommodate vessels of 20 feet draft and up to 400 feet in length. 3. Information regarding port administration: The State of Rhode Island appointed a State harbor commission April 19, 1918, whose duties are to have control and supervision of all harbors and tidewaters of the State, for the preservation, development, and improvement thereof, and the pro- motion of the interests of the State therein. (See an act creating a harbor commis- sion, approved Apr. 19, 1918, sec. 2.) This commission is composed of three execu- tives. The city of Providence has its municipal wharf operated under the juris- diction of the committee on city engineer's department and the committee on harbor. These committees work jointly for the development of municipal wharf in particular and the development of the port of Providence in general. 4. Information regarding port charges: There are no uniform port charges for the port of Providence. The charges for use of the State pier are identical with the charges in the city of Boston, as published by A. T. Howard, 27 Beach Street, Boston, Mass. There are no published rates for the use of the Merchants’ & Miners’ wharf. The rates at municipal wharf are in accordance with attached card. 5. Information regarding public ownership or control of water front. * of the water front is privately owned, excepting the State Pier and municipal WI13.]. I. - f h Information regarding general interest shown in the improvement of terminal acilities. There is no subject on which public interest is more keen than that of the develop- ment of the port of Providence. 7. Efforts made to utilize the navigation of facilities available. 190 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The city of Providence through its committee on city engineer's department and harbor is constantly seeking ten ants for its available space and has reason to believe that after cargo-unloading cranes are installed that the port and harbor facilities commission of the United States Shipping Board will send vessels to Providence to receive and discharge cargo. 8. Existing or desirable rail and water connections. There is ample rail connection at each of the three aforementioned wharves. At municipal wharf there are ample storage tracks for upward of 100 cars and unlimited trackage may readily be provided when this is necessary. 9. Consideration of the possibility of a joint rail and water terminal. The location of Providence at the head of Narrat unrett Bay, 28 miles from the sea, being located near the southerly center of New England, makes it a very desirable joint rail and water terminal. The indu tries manufactured in Rhode Issland, such as cotton and woolen goods, in ulated wire, machinery, machine tools, find its way into all the markets of the world. - 10. Information regarding coaling, repair, and storage facilities. Providence is one of the larget coaling ports of the north Atlantic coast, coal being received for rail shipment throughout New England. The total coal unloading and storage capacity of the plants in Providence is: Storage, 348,000 tons; 58,200 tons per diem unloading capacity. A marine railway is under construction and will be in operation about July 1, which will have a lifting capacity of about 3,500 to 4,000 tons. The marine railway company will have ample mºchine shop, boiler shop, and black- smith shop for making any class of repairs required on steamships or other vessels. There are at the pre ent time a number of shops in the city of Providence with tools and men capable of undertaking any class of ship repairs. There are at present operating in the city of Providence large oil plants owned by the Texas Oil Co., the Gulf Refining Co., Mexican Petroleum Co., and the Standard Oil Co. It has been stated authoritatively that the Standard Oil Co. intends to make Providence the 1 urgest oil port on the Atlantic coast. We have been adviced that at the present time Providence is moving more oil than any of the North Atlantic ports—New York only excepted. 11. Submit copies of ordinances or regulations bearing on port administration and port charges. - 4. There are no ordinances or regulations known to the citv engineer covering port administration or port charges, except the law creating the State harbor commission. Trusting this will give you the information you require, I remain, Very sincerely, yours, Col. J. H. WILLARD, United States Army, Retired. United States Engineer Office, Newport, R. I. Joseph H. GAINER, Mayor. A copy of the card inclosed in above letter follows: MUNICIPAL WHARF, CITY OF PROVIDENCE, R. I. Ready for shipping business between tidewater and rail. Municipal wharf has 30 feet depth of water at low tide, three marginal railroad tracks, direct railroad connection for freight diſtribution throughout New England and the west; low wharfage rates for nonperishable freight, low open storage rate, no necessity of tugboats when docking vessels, fresh water without moving vessel during discharge, coaling, and other conveniences. Rates in effect March 18, 1918: All classes of freight 20 cents per ton (as per bill of lading), or one-half cent per cubic foot, the rate netting greatest amount to be used. There rates apply to non- perishable freight only and are to be charged whether the freight is inward or out- ward bound. A charge of $2 per car is to be made for the use of railroad whether cars are used for inward or outward freight. Empty cars free. Inactive dockage 10 cents per day per foot length of vessel. Open storage at 5 cents per ton month. Craneage rates upon inquiry. For confirmation of rates and for securing unloading space, apply to the city engi- neer’s office, city hall, Providence, R. I. Sand or gravel taken for ballast, or any other purpose, will be charged at 10 cents per cubic yard. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSIFER FACILITIES. 191 PAw'TUCKET RIVER, R. I. Pawtucket River empties into Providence River at Providence, R. I. The project for the improvement provides for a channel between Red B idge in Providence and Division Street Bridge in Pawtucket 150 feet wide up to the ledge rock between the wharves of Pawtucket and thence to the upper end of the work 60 feet wide, all with a depth of 16 feet at mean low water, except that the upper reach through the rock is made 18 feet deep. The existing channel is 100 feet wide and the additional width of 50 feet is still to be made. The mean range of tide is 4.7 feet to 5 feet. The general character of the commerce of the 1iver comprises coal, cotton, building material, oil, shellfish, and miscellaneous material, including copper bars, pig iron, wire, both steel and copper, coal tar, and ammoniacal liquor, which amounted in 1917 to 490,594 short tons. The wharves serving the improved portion of the river pro- vide for about 74 per cent of this traffic; the balance below Red Bridge is described under Providence Harbor. Eight wharves in the improved portion of the river handle the coal, which amounts to 69 per cent of the total traffic, and with three additional wharves all traffic is adequately handled. There are no special local of dinances governing the port or river and no port charges. A substantial whalf of masonry, protected by piles with a f, ontage of 750 feet and a depth of 16 feet at mean low water, has been built by the State. This wharf is provided with a steel shed for storage, but is without other mechanical appliances for handling freight. A good highway leads to the wharf. A portion of this wharf is leased to a freight line to New York and Philadelphia and the remainder is open to the use of all on equal terms, namely, 1 cent per registered ton for each 24 hours in addition to loading and unloading charges varying with the character of the cargo, approximately 40 cents per ton. For vessels repairing, one-half of above wharfage rate. The State of Rhode Island also contributed $67,792 toward dredging the existing channel. The two terminals at Phillipsdale are each connected to the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad by spur tracks, but there is no interchange of traffic between rail and water. None of the other wharves on the river have railroad connection nor are they favor- ably situated for such connection, as the railroad lines are consid— erably back from the water front and on much higher ground. The joint ownership of rail and water lines does not appear to be a matter of importance to the railroad lines along the Pawtucket River, as the more extensive terminals of Providence Harbor are so close by. An interesting feature of the matter of joint ownership of lines develops in the exhibition of the cost of transporting the product of a large manufacturing concern from Pawtucket River to a branch in New York by a chartered vessel under its own man- agement. The average cost for the year amounts to $3 per ton or 15 cents per hundredweight as against from 30 to 55 cents per hundred on the regular lines. The former cost does not cover profit, but is believed to cover all other items that would be included in the freight schedule. There is no great demand for coaling facilities at Pawtucket, as practically all vessels are towed and the harbor of Providence is very near at hand for both coaling and repairs. Ample 192 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. storage for coal and building material exists on the premises of the dealers and for the raw materials received at Phillipsdale in con- nection with the plants where they are used, While there are no freight-handling plants involving special features along the river, it may properly be said that they are all fairly efficient in the work for which they are designed. POINT JUDITH HARBOR OF REFUGE, R. I. Point Judith marks the southwest entrance to Narragansett Bay, R. I. The harbor is formed by a main detached breakwater in front of a curve in the shore line to the west of Point Judith and two shore arm breakwaters. It is roughly triangular in shape and extends at its farthermost southerly point about 6,000 feet from the shore. The project for the improvement consisted in the con- struction of the breakwaters now inclosing the harbor, which has latterly been extended to include the removal of two shoal spots within the harbor to a depth of 18 feet at mean low water. The mean range of tide is about 4 feet. A small amount of fishing is done in the harbor, but otherwise there are no water terminals or facilities for handling cargoes. There are no railroad facilities, nor town or city on the borders of the harbor, and it is not thought that any construction of terminals, either public or private, is necessary in order that the harbor should fulfill its function as a harbor of refuge. HARBOR OF REFUGE AT BLOCK ISLAND, R. I. This harbor is on the east side of Block Island near the south end of the inner curve of the shore line and varies in width from about 1,200 to 200 feet east and west in a length of 1,800 feet north and south. It is protected by breakwaters built by the United States and by the shores of the island on the west and southwest sides. The project for the improvement consisted in the construction of the breakwaters and dredging to a depth of 15 feet at mean low water within the harbor. It is located in the ocean about 13 miles south by west from Point Judith, R. I. The mean range of tide is about 3 feet. The island has a population of about 1,500 which is increased by several thousand summer visitors. The chief occupations of the inhabitants are fishing and agriculture. The commerce consists of coal, building material, merchandise, fish, etc., and in 1917 amounted to 8,282 tons. The vessels using the island are a steamboat, mainly for passengers in summer from Narragansett Bay, a small schooner for mail, passengers, and freight all the year, and a large number of motor-driven and sailing boats used in fishing about the island and following schools of fish. There is a town-owned wharf open to the free use of all within a small inclosed basin in the southeast corner of the harbor, and a wharf outside of the basin owned by the Providence, Fall River & Newport Steamboat Co., used chiefly for summer business. These wharves meet fairly well the requirements of the freight and passenger business, but another class of business, that of cleaning and packing fish for shipment, is very undesirable where large numbers of passengers are moving back and forth, and it WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 193 is believed that the fishing would be greatly benefited by the build- ing of a light wharf by some public agency along the westerly side of the basin open to the use of all fishermen for this purpose and that they be restricted from the use of the other wharves. Per- mits have been issued to fishermen from time to time to build houses for the storage of their gear, but the available space for this was soon used up and a great many desiring such accommodations were necessarily refused, and for that reason it is believed to be objec- tionable to grant individual permits for wharf privileges. The town corporation is in a very poor financial condition and probably would be unable to build the wharf and it is doubtful if the State would feel inclined to help. There is a harbor master elected by the town who is charged with the administration of the harbor. There are no port charges. As in all purely maritime settlements, practically all the inhabitants are greatly interested in all matters pertaining to improvements in conditions. . There are no rail con- nections. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight. GREAT SALT POND, BLOCK ISLAND, R. I. The Great Salt Pond is located about the central part of Block Island. It is a body of water approximately 1.25 miles long and 0.6 of a mile wide; its greatest depth is about 60 feet and it has an area of about 150 acres exceeding 18 feet in depth. The project for improvement provides for excavating an entrance on the westerly side of the isalnd 600 feet wide, with a central depth for a width of 150 feet of 25 feet, with sloping sides up to 12 feet with a width of 504 feet. The mean range of tide is about 3 feet. The commerce consists of coal, building material, merchandise, fish, etc., which in 1917 amounted to 7,736 tons. The vessels using the pond consist of steamboats for passenger and freight business from New London and from the east end of Long Island in summer- time, fishing schooners and gasoline motor boats used for fishing and pleasure purposes. It was largely used for naval purposes during the war. There is one wharf owned by the New England Steamship Co., at which practically all of the freight is landed. On this wharf fish houses are leased to a few fishermen and used in preparing fish for shipments in the steamboats landing at the wharf. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight. There are no publicly owned wharves, but wharfage can usually be secured at unoccupied portions of the wharf upon such terms as may be agreed upon between the owners or lessees. - There are a few small wharves owned by the property owners around the pond and used for the care of their fishing gear, etc. There are no port charges. A general interest is felt in any improvement that may be con- templated, but efforts seem of late to be used in keeping a trans- portation line of some sort, either steam or sail, between the island and the main land. The inducements for such communication are so slight during the winter months that it is only with difficulty that it can be maintained. There are no railroad connections. 164681—H.

COL. S. W. ROESSLER, U. S. ARMY RETIRED, IN CHARGE. PAWOATUCK RIVER, R. I. AND CONN. The Pawcatuck River is a small stream entering the eastern end of Fishers Island Sound through Little Narragansett Bay. A chan- nel 10 feet deep and generally 100 feet wide has been dredged through the bay and the tidal portion of the river up to Westerly, R. I., a distance of about 7% miles. Mean tidal range about 4.7 feet. The annual commerce averages about 50,000 tons. About 80 per cent of this tonnage is coal and the balance construction material of various kinds. Freight is carried in small light-draft box barges, canal boats, and occasionally small schooners drawing from 7 to 10 feet. Cargoes are unloaded and stored on marginal wharves located near the head of navigation. Suitable power hoists for discharging cargo are provided on a majority of the wharves. The commercial wharves served by this waterway are all grouped near the head of navigation in the towns of Westerly, R. I., and Pawcatuck, Conn. They are all of the longitudinal bulkhead type, some with narrow pile aprons. The Westerly wharf faces form a practically continuous line parallel with the dredged channel for a length of about 2,200 feet. The Pawcatuck wharves are fewer in number and are separated by unimproved frontage and mud flats. Individual vessel berths vary in length from 100 to 300 feet, and effort is made to maintain in them an available depth approximating that provided in the adjacent channel. The existing facilities are ample and well adapted to the character and amount of present traffic. Except for a small and unused wharf to which the town of Westerly holds disputed title, all wharves are held in private owner- ship, but several are open to public use at the convenience of the owner and subject to such special agreements as may be made. There are no direct railway connections to any of the existing terminals. Improved highways lead from the various wharf properties to the business parts of the towns. There is apparently no necessity for a publicly owned terminal, as the demand for such facilities is not sufficient to warrant the expenditure. STONINGTON HARBOR, CONN. Stonington Harbor is on the north shore of Fishers Island Sound, about at its eastern end. The harbor is protected by two break- waters and the inner harbor has been dredged to 12 feet at mean low Water. It is essentially a harbor of refuge, the local commerce hav- ing practically disappeared. The wharves are all located on the easterly side of the harbor north of the old breakwater. The smaller wharves are of masonry and timber construction, indifferently equipped for handling freight. 235 236 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The steamboat wharves owned by the New York, New Haven & Hartford R. R. Co., and formerly used as a terminal for freight steamers running between Stonington and New York, are now occu- pied by a shipyard for the construction and repair of large size cargo ships. These piers are of pile construction with ample berthing fa- cilities for moderate sized vessels. In addition to the above, there are numerous smaller landings utilized to a considerable extent by the local fishermen. There are no publicly owned terminals, but wharves are available for public use on equal terms. The shipyard wharves, only, are served by railroad spurs, but there is no inter- change of rail and water traffic over them. The town highways leading to the wharves are in good condition. The present and pros- pective commerce of the harbor is not sufficient to warrant the con- struction of a publicly owned terminal. - MYSTIC RIVER, CONN. Mystic River empties into Fishers Island Sound about 5 miles east of New London, has E. under improvement by the United States to provide a channel 15 feet deep up to the highway bridge at Mystic, and thence 12 feet deep for about one-half mile northerly. Coal for factory and domestic purposes is practically the only article of a com- merce, averaging annually about 25,000 tons, valued at $100,000 to $200,000. Freight is ordinarily delivered in box barges of 9 to 12 feet draft. The river is occasionally used by steam trawlers as a base for supplies and for laying up. The principal wharves are at Mystic, about 2% miles above the mouth. They are generally small and very simply equipped. There are two shipyards located on the river, at which large-size schooners and freight steamers are constructed. One yard is equipped with marine railways, at which vessels up to 200 feet in length can be hauled out. There is no publicly owned wharf at Mystic, but at Noank, near the mouth of the river, the town of Groton owns a small wharf equipped with simple unloading facilities, handling practically all of the water-borne commerce of the village. Except for a few wharves along the westerly side of the river near its mouth at Noank, the principal terminals are located above the railroad bridge at Mystic. The general type of construction is a longitudinal bulkhead faced with narrow pile apron. The prevailing depth in the berths is about 10 feet at mean low water, 5 feet less than the depth of the improved channel. Mechanical hoists of sim- ple type are provided for handling coal, the principal article of com— merce. At Mystic all wharves are privately owned, but there are sufficient wharves open to public use on agreement to care for the occasional cargoes seeking wharfage. At Noank, the town of Groton maintains a public wharf with mechanical unloading equipment open to the public on equal terms. Various smaller piers and landings are used extensively in the fish and lobster industry. None of the wharves along the river is connected with the railroad, but improved highways reach practically all of the terminals. While the facilities are considered ample for the present commerce, it is believed that a suitable j. owned wharf located at Mystic would be of considerable advantage to the community. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 237 NEW LONDON HARBOR, CONN. New London Harbor lies at the eastern end of Long Island Sound, and comprises the lower 3 miles of Thames River, including Winthrops and Shaw's Coves. The project for this harbor provides for a 600-foot entrance channel 33 feet, deep, in which a 30-foot depth is already available for a width of 500 feet; for a 400-foot channel 23 feet deep along the water front; and for dredging Shaw's Cove to 15 feet, all depths referring to mean low water. The mean tidal range is 2.4 feet. The commerce of the harbor has varied in the past few years between 900,000 and 600,000 tons annually, with a valuation increas- ing from about $100,000,000 to over $200,000,000. In addition to this the entire commerce of the upper Thames River passes through, and the harbor is also extensively used for refuge by tows and sailing craft. More than half of the commerce of the harbor is steamboat (package) freight received and transshipped principally by the two railroads and their allied steamship lines, amounting in normal times to over 500,000 tons annually. Next in point of tonnage is coal, which is received in quantities averaging 200,000 tons annually for transshipment over the Central Vermont Railway, and for local dealers and manufacturers. Most of the commerce of the harbor is handled on a draft of about 15 feet. Schooners and barges of deeper draft occa- sionally discharge cargo or seek refuge in the outer harbor. The freight steamers operating through Long Island Sound to and from New York City are the development of many years' experience in that class of trade. Their draft, loaded, is about 15 feet. Coal and similar bulk freight is received in box and molded barges drawing from 10 to 15 feet and over. Considerably over half the total commerce is handled over the railroad wharves, and a large portion of the developed frontage is owned or controlled by the railroads. Coal companies and industrial plants occupy a considerable portion of the remaining frontage. The Groton wharves are small and relatively unimportant. The avail- able depths at the principal wharves average about 15 feet at mean low water, and practically all of the wharves are equipped with mod- ern hoists for discharging cargo. The existing facilities are believed to be adequate for the present and reasonably prospective commerce. So far as the city of New London is concerned, there is no port administration. A harbor master, appointed by the governor of the State, supervises the anchorage of vessels and performs such other duties as authorized by law. The court of common council, through committees and otherwise, controls the public landing and the mu- nº ferry operating on the river. Charges for pilotage range from $2 per foot draft for vessels of less than 12-foot draft up to $4 per foot draft for vessels drawing 20 feet or more. Towing rates are established by the local towing companies and vary with the tonnage capacity of the vessel. Wharfage charges vary with the circumstances of the service. Facilities for repairs, etc., are afforded by two sets of marine railways and repair plants, one located in the main harbor and the other on the lower Thames River about 2 miles upstream. Of the developed frontage only a small part is under public owner- ship. The State of Connecticut owns or controls a tract of 6 or more acres and a frontage of over 400 feet, on which a steamship terminal 238 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. has been constructed, and the city of New London owns a small amount of frontage at the foot of State Street, on which has been built a 300-foot landing pier and the municipal ferry terminal. Plans are being developed by the municipality for materially increasing the public facilities by the construction of suitable terminal units. As stated above, the bulk of the commerce is handled over the railroad wharves. The principal terminal of the Central Vermont Railway (Long Wharf) is a masonry structure, built in 1875 at a cost of about $175,000. The westerly side, 1,085 feet long, faces the entrance to Winthrops Cove and is equipped with coal elevator, hopper, and scales. The outer end is utilized for miscellaneous bulk cargoes transferred between rail and water. The easterly side is used ex- clusively by the freight steamers of the company, which utilize a small frame warehouse or freight shed. One of the yard tracks extends through this shed. The pier has a general width of 168 feet, enlarged in the outer portion to 220 feet, and is served by 10 tracks connected with the main freight yard located in the rear. The New Haven (Norwich Line) terminal is of considerably less extent and is utilized solely by the freight and passenger steamers of the New England Navigation Co. It is located opposite the Union Railroad Station at the foot of State Street. It is a pile and timber pier about 400 feet long and 100 feet wide and has an available depth alongside of over 16 feet. It has a timber shed about 30,000 square feet in area covered with galvanized iron and served by a double- track spur connection throughout its length. The State of Connecticut has recently completed a modern steam- ship terminal at the head of the harbor at an initial cost for pier and appurtenances of approximately $1,000,000. The pier structure is about 1,000 feet long and 200 feet wide. The central portion is a solid fill between masonry walls, on each side of which is a fender wharf 50 feet wide of pile construction. An approach channel and the berthing slips are dredged to 35 feet at low water. The deck of the pier is of premolded reinforced-concrete units surfaced with asphalt. Extending through the center of the pier are two depressed tracks, connecting through a State-owned distribution yard with the Central Vermont Railway and indirectly with the New Haven system. A two-story frame warehouse of heavy mill construction covers, ex- cept for a narrow marginal cargo space, practically the whole pier. Cargo masts are provided along the roof edge. Electric winches, trucks, and trailers are included in the final equipment to be sup- plied. The upper story of the shed has an area of 90,000 square feet, available for time storage. This pier, which on account of existing conditions has had practically no commercial use, is the first unit of an extensive prospective development, further construction being dependent upon demonstrated necessity. The remaining wharves are, with few exceptions, short stone piers with narrow pile aprons, the sides and end being utilized for berthing. The available depths at these wharves average about 15 feet at mean low water. Practically all are equipped to handle and store bulk freight, principally coal and building material. In general the efficiency is not high, but under existing conditions of traffic they appear to adequately meet the requirements of the owners and operators. Except for the municipal wharf, a pile structure about . 300 feet long, utilized only as a public landing, and the several wharves WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 239 owned or leased by Government agencies and used exclusively by them, the wharves are all privately owned. Several, at least sufficient to meet the present demand, are open to public use under special agreement with the owners. One private wharf in Shaws Cove has a railroad connection, not utilized however, for interchange of rail and water traffic. All wharves are adequately served by the city highway system. THAMES RIVER, CONN. Thames River is a tidal estuary extending 15 miles inland from its mouth at New London to the city of Norwich, the lower 3 miles being called New London Harbor. The improved channel is 200 feet wide and 20 feet deep up to Allyns Point, and thence 100 feet wide and 14 feet deep to Norwich. The normal average tonnage is over 400,000 per annum, of which over 300,000 tons is coal. There has been, however, a marked falling off in the past two years in the quantity of coal received. The other items of freight handled in large quantities are paper stock, petroleum products, sand, and gravel, and general merchandise or package freight. The latter is carried by a steamer of about 500 gross tons register making regular trips to and from New York City. Coal for the upper river is towed in box barges of 500 to 1,000 tons capacity and 10 to 12 feet, draft. In the lower river in the deeper channel, box and molded barges drawing up to 15 feet are used. The facilities for handling this com- merce are not of necessity very extensive. Except at the railroad's Allyns Point wharf, the amounts handled by the individual terminals are small and the facilities for discharging and storing adjusted to the requirements of the operators' business. The city of Norwich Owns a small amount of water front, which has been improved to afford a landing for small steamers and pleasure craft. Efforts have been made by civic bodies to increase and improve the terminal facilities, but the topography of the river banks adjacent to the city does not lend itself readily to development at reasonable cost. It is believed that a public terminal suitably equipped for the handling of miscel- laneous bulk cargoes would be extensively used by local interests. A shipyard located in the lower river offers facilities for repairs and has marine railways with capacities up to 2,500 tons. The wharf at Allyns Point owned and operated by the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co. is the only terminal of importance on the river. From this point coal is distributed through northeastern Connecticut and central Massachusetts. The wharf is of pile and timber construc- tion, with a frontage of 840 feet and an available depth alongside of 20 feet at low water. Two traveling gantry cranes, spanning two service tracks, operate on the upper 500 feet of the wharf, loading into . cars through hoppers. A freight yard with tracks for classification, storage, and weighing adjoins the wharf in the rear. The capacity of the terminal is estimated to be about 1,300 tons per eight-hour day. There are wharves at various points along the river up to Norwich. The Norwich wharves are located along both sides of the river at the head of navigation. In the lower river pile and timber construction prevail. At Thamesville and Norwich a masonry or timber bulkhead with pile facing is the usual type. Depths alongside approximate the controlling depth in the channel. There are no other extensive un- loading or transfer facilities along the river. Manufacturers and 240 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. dealers’ wharves are equipped with adequate coal-handling machinery and in general may be said to be suitably adapted to the existing COIſl] ſlēI’Cé. - e All other wharves at Norwich and along the river are in private ownership. Several of these are open to public use on stated terms or by special agreement. Many of the wharves have direct railroad connections, and direct transfer of freight from water to rail is made in a few instances. Except at Norwich the highway connections are generally poor. It is believed that the improvement of the present public wharf at Norwich or the construction of a new terminal with adequate equipment centrally located would be of considerable benefit to small shippers. CONNECTICUT RIVER ABOVE HARTFORD, CONN. Commercial navigation in this portion of the river is limited to light- draft excursion boats in the pool above Enfield Dam. The only wharves in use are small landings of pile construction. These land- ings are privately owned, but may be used by the public at the owners' convenience. Railroad connections are lacking, but access may be had to each over improved highways. The facilties are considered ample for the present traffic. In a plan for the further development of this section of river for commercial navigation recommended by the Chief of Engineers, the establishment of suitable public terminals by the cities of Springfield, Chicopee, and Holyoke is made a condition precedent to the expenditure of Federal funds. It is thought that the question of location and extent of the facilities to be provided should be deferred until such time as Congress shall authorize the improve- ment. - CONNECTICUT RIVER BELOW HARTFORD, CONN. The Connecticut River, emptying into Long Island Sound about 14 miles west of New London, is navigable by commercial vessels up to Hartford, about 52 miles from the mouth. The project for the improvement of the river provides for a 300-foot channel 15 feet deep through the outer bar, and thence 100 feet wide and 12 feet deep through the various river bars to Hartford. . The mean tidal range is 3.4 feet at the mouth and 1.2 feet at Hartford. The annual com- merce averages over 600,000 tons, valued at between $30,000,000 and $60,000,000. About three-quarters of the annual tonnage is coal. Next in point of tonnage and by far the most valuable freight is the general merchandise carried by the daily line of steamers operating between Hartford, the river towns and New York City. The balance of the traffic consists of small amounts of lumber, fertilizer, building material, etc. The river steamers are of about 1,000 tons register and operate on a draft of 10% feet. The coal and other bulk freight is carried principally in molded barges of 600 to 900 tons capacity on about 9-foot draft. These barges are particularly designed and equipped for service on the river. The river terminals are practically all substantial bulkhead wharves designed to resist freshet and ice conditions. The larger and more active terminals at Hartford and Middletown are equipped with modern coal handling devices, but at most of the remaining wharves dependence is placed on the vessel for unloading facilities. A branch WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 241 of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad runs along the west side of the river from Saybrook to Hartford and another crosses the river at Middletown. Some of the terminals at the above localities and the wharves at Portland are served by railroad spurs, but only at Saybrook is there a direct interchange of rail and water traffic. The existing terminals are considered to be adequate for the present commerce of the river. The city of Hartford controls an extended river frontage of which about 350 feet is improved and main- tained as a free public wharf, and the balance unimproved and used for park and other purposes. It is understood that the chamber of commerce of the city has under consideration plans for the develop- ment of the unimproved frontage. There are one or more wharves of varying importance at all of the river towns from Saybrook to Hartford. The depths alongside vary from 7 to 22 feet at ordinary low water. In general, the facilities provided may be said to adequately meet the requirements of present traffic. At Hartford, Cromwell, Middletown, and Saybrook, there are wharves owned or leased by the municipality or other public agency at which the public can be accommodated. At the above places and at practically every other town along the river there are one or more 5.º.º.º. wharves open to public use at nominal rates. A ranch of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad runs along the west side of the river between Saybrook and Hartford. Adequate highways lead to all of the more important wharves. It is believed that river towns without publicly owned wharfage facilities are adequately accommodated by the existing terminals. BRANFORD HARBOR, CONN. Branford Harbor is about 5 miles east of New Haven and comprises a small outer harbor and the lower 1% miles of Branford River. A channel 100 feet wide and 8% feet deep at mean low water has been dredged through the shoals at the entrance and between the upper and lower wharves at Branford. The annual tonnage carried to the wharves averages about 30,000 tons, valued at approximately $250,000. About two-thirds of the tonnage is coal and the balance iron and foundry supplies. The entire water-borne commerce of Branford is handled over two wharves located at and near the head of navigation on Branford River. The larger of these, owned by the Malleable Iron Fittings Co., is a timber bulkhead with pile apron and has a usable frontage of about 600 feet. The available depth, maintained by periodical dredging, is about 11 feet at mean low water. The two steam hoisting rigs now in use are being replaced by modern Meade-Morrison auto- matic bucket equipment. Storage facilities for coal and other bulk freight are provided. The other wharf is about 300 feet long and consists of a masonry bulkhead with pile apron. The depth alongside varies from 4 to 8 feet at mean low water. Coal and lumber are the principal articles discharged and stored. There is no direct railway connection at either wharf, but good driveways lead to improved highways. Both of these wharves are open to public use without charge, but the privilege is seldom availed of. There is no publicly *: wharf, and in view of the above statement, no immediate need OI OI) e. 164681—H. DOC. 652, 66–2 16 242 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. NEW HAVEN HARBOR, CONN. The city of New Haven is about 71 miles east of New York City, and is situated on a bay about 4 miles in length and from 1 to 4 miles in width, which together with the navigable portions of the West, Mill, and Quinnipiac Rivers emptying into it comprises the harbor. The main channel from Long Island Sound to the head of the harbor has a depth of 20 feet and a general width of 400 to 700 feet, with ad- jacent anchorage basins of 15, 16, and 20 feet, respectively. The branch channels are 12 feet deep except in the upper Quinnipiac and ..". in width from 75 to 200 feet. The mean range of tide is nearly 6 feet. The total commerce of the harbor averages about 2,000,000 tons annually, valued at from $100,000,000 to $150,000,000. The prin- cipal article of freight is coal, of which more than a million and a half tons are received annually. Next in tonnage, and in point of value by far the most important item, is steamboat freight, consisting of provisions, dry goods, hardware, machinery, and various other manu- factured articles, and amounting in receipts and shipments to over a quarter million tons. Oysters, lumber, oil, chemicals, iron pipe, and miscellaneous construction materials are among the important articles of water-borne freight. Practically all of the coal is brought in towed barges of 800 to 1,400 tons capacity, drawing from 12 to 14 feet, with occasional cargoes in larger carriers drawing up to 22 feet. The oyster industry is carried on by steam and gasoline dredges varying in capacity from 300 to about 5,000 bushels and drawing u to 12 feet of water. Steamboat freight is carried by two lines, eac maintaining a daily service between New Haven and New York City. Lumber, brick, and other building material are brought in schooners drawing from 10 to 20 feet. The principal terminals and practically all of the wharves open to public use in New Haven Harbor are located along the northwesterly side of the main harbor at its head. The various branch channels, the Mill, Quinnipiac, and West Rivers, are lined throughout nearly all of their improved lengths with wharves of varying importance devoted to the private business of the owners and operators. Owing to the restricted dimensions of the waterways in the tributary streams, the wharves on them are of the marginal bulkhead type, usually stone, faced with pile construction of varying width. The terminals in the main harbor are with one or two exceptions narrow piers either solid filled or open and range up to 2,300 feet in length. Bºº. alongside the wharves in Quinnipiac River approximate closely the depths in the adjacent channel; in Mill River }. depths vary from 8 to 18 feet with a channel depth of 12 feet at mean low water; in the main harbor vessels up to 18-foot draft and over can be berthed at some of the wharves, but the average depth available is nearer 12 or 13 feet; depths along the West Haven wharves, bordering on a 12-foot channel, vary from 5 to 14 feet. More than half of the terminals in the harbor are designed and used for the receipt of coal, of which commodity over a million and a half tons are discharged annually. Eight terminals unload over 100,000 tons each and one more than a half million tons. Most of the larger terminals are capable of handling a greatly increased tonnage. In general it may º, said that the present terminals are suitably adapted to the existing traffic condi- tlOnS. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 243 The only port authorities are a harbor master and the board of harbor commissioners, both appointed by the governor. The former performs the usual supervisory duties of that office; the latter con- sists of six members, serving without compensation and charged with the “general care and supervision of New Haven Harbor * * * in oriº to prevent and remove unauthorized encroachments and causes of every kind which are liable to interfere with the full naviga- tion of said harbor or in any way injure its channels or cause any reduction of its tidewaters.” Pilotage is compulsory for foreign and United States registered Vessels drawing 9 feet and over, if spoken. There are no fixed fees, but the usual charges vary from 75 cents per foot draft up to $2 per foot draft for 14 feet and upward. The outward rate is one-half the inward. Charges for towing, pumping, and watering are in accordance with a schedule fixed by the local towboat company. Wharfage, dockage, and handling charges' at the municipal wharf and at the railroad wharves are in accordance with a regular published tariff schedule. The city of New Haven owns a total of about 3,300 feet of water frontage on the upper harbor and Mill River, of which 2,200 feet is utilized for park purposes. Of the remaining 1,100 feet about one-half is occupied by the City Wharf and the rest undeveloped. Plans providing for improved terminal and transfer facilities at City Wharf and for the construction of additional wharf facilities in the adjacent undeveloped frontage have been under consideration for some time. In addition to this the chamber of commerce is preparing plans and studies for an extensive future rail-and-water terminal. Of the principal wharves open to public use only one is publicly owned. City Wharf, fronting on the upper main harbor, was built in 1901 at a cost of about $20,000. It consists of a pile fender wharf about 80 feet wide and 370 feet long, fronting a masonry bulkhead. A return wharf and wall affords about 190 feet additional wharfage on the westerly side. A depth of 15 feet at low water is available on a total frontage of about 450 feet. The pier was at one time supplied with hoisting and storage facilities and was extensively used. During the war it has been under lease to the Navy Depart- ment. Under normal conditions the wharf is open to carriers under a schedule of rates fixed by city ordinance. Transfer of freight to Warehouse is by trucks and drays, as there is no railroad connection. Plans for improved facilities have been prepared. The principal private terminals open to public use are the piers of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co. Five piers with an aggregate dockage length of about 9,000 feet are available under a published tariff schedule, but owing to the nature and layout of their equipment are not all suitable for public service. Belle Dock is a solid filled pier at which about 800 feet of dockage with 10 to 16 feet depth is in use. Two derricks and hoisting engines unload miscellaneous bulk freight onto cars. The remaining frontage is used for towboat dockage. Fresh water is supplied to vessels at this wharf. Middle Dock, a solid filled pier faced with timber and piles, is about 900 feet in length and 70 feet wide. This wharf is provided with five hoisting rigs, hoppers, etc., for loading coal into cars. A three-track siding extends the full length of the pier. On account 244 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. of the poor condition of the structure it is utilized at present for dockage only, Pocket Dock is a 1,100-foot pier, 75 feet in width, of which one-half is a solid filled timber structure and the rest open pile construction. One side only, with an available depth of 16 to 18 feet at low water, is in use. This side is served by three McMyler traveling coal elevators, loading direct into cars or into an elevated storage pocket 300 feet long and about 40 feet wide. A four-track siding extends the full length of the pier. These three wharves, together with steamboat wharf, used exclusively by the freight steamers of the New England Navigation Co., a subsidiary of the railroad, are grouped and known by the railroad company as Belle Dock and are served by an extensive system of sidings and yard tracks. Heatons Wharf is a pier about 1,000 feet long, of which the outer 350 feet only is used by vessels. A frame shed about 300 by 60 feet covers most of the used portion of the pier. Fifteen feet of water is available in the principally used berth. The pier is with- out mechanical facilities or rail connection, but is used to a small extent for the receipt and storage of lumber, pipe, etc. Canal Wharf is an open pile pier 2,300 feet long and 75 feet wide. Berths varying in depth from 4 to 12 feet at low water are available along the outer 2,000 feet. Five derricks and four cranes unload coal and other bulk cargoes either direct into cars or into storage pockets. Nearly 1 acre of storage is available for lumber. A three-track siding with crossovers and additional spurs extends the full length of the pier and connects with one of the main freight yards of the company in the rear of the wharf. Two privately operated coal terminals of large capacity have recently been constructed. The coal-storage plant of the Winchester Repeating Arms Co. is located on the east shore at the head of the main harbor and has a frontage of about one-half mile on the harbor. About midway of the length is a 75-foot pile wharf served by an approach channel and basin 25 feet deep. Surmounting this wharf is a Lidgerwood hoisting tower from which a belt conveyor delivers coal from the hopper in the tower to an elevated storage pocket 300 feet in length. Traveling on this pocket is the head tower of a 400– foot cableway by which coal is distributed in the storage pile. A locomotive crane on extensive yard tracks repiles the coal on storage areas not reached by the cableway and also loads into trucks and cars. Trucks may also be loaded directly from the storage pocket. The capacity of the terminal is not stated. The Mill River Coal Co.'s terminal, located on the east branch of Mill River, is a pile and timber structure of 412 feet frontage with a depth of 14 feet available in the unloading berths. Coal is unloaded by two modern steam hoisting rigs into elevated hoppers and thence distributed to storage piles or loaded on cars by an automatic cable railway system. A loco- motive crane operating on yard tracks repiles the coal in areas not reached by the cable railway and also loads cars and trucks. Facili- ties for coaling vessels are provided at the lower end of the wharf. The yard is connected by a belt-line railway with the local freight yards. The storage capacity of the yard is said to be 75,000 tons and the annual capacity about 300,000 tons loaded on cars and 200,000 tons loaded on trucks for local delivery. All of the railroad wharves except Heatons are equipped with spur tracks. Sidings are available along the west branch of Mill River, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 245 but are not directly on the wharf properties and so far as is known no transshipment of water-borne freight is made. The east side of Mill River and the lower part of the Quinnipiac is served by an industrial railway operated by the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad. Spurs from this railway connect with several terminals. Practically all of the terminal properties are accessible by city streets, many of them paved, but direct highway connection onto the wharf proper is not always possible, due to restrictions incident to the traffic require- ments of the terminal. MILFORD HARBOR, CONN. Milford Harbor is on the north shore of Long Island Sound, about 8 miles west of New Haven. It consists of an open bay and the tidal portion of Wepowage River. A channel 10 feet deep and 100 feet wide has been dredged to the lower wharves and thence 6 feet deep and 90 feet wide to the upper wharves. The commerce is small, ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 tons annually. The tonnage of the oyster industry, which comprises the major part of the commerce, varies considerably from year to year. Coal and construction mate- rial are handled in small amounts over the public wharf. The oyster trade is carried on in steam or gasoline trawlers and small schooners, drawing from 6 to 10 feet; other freight is received in box barges of about 10–12-foot draft. There are only two wharves in commercial use in this harbor, Mer- win's wharf on the east side near the entrance, and Town wharf on the west side near the head of navigation. The former, owned b the Connecticut Oyster Farms Co., is a pile and timber structure wiłł a total frontage on the channel, not continuous, of about 400 feet. The available depth alongside averages about 8 feet at low water. The mechanical equipment is limited to the requirements of the oyster industry. A two-story frame warehouse about 60 by 80 feet covers one section of the wharf. The Town wharf, owned by the town of Milford, is a pier about 300 feet long, earth filled between pile and timber bulkheads with a narrow open-piled pierhead. A depth of about 5 feet at low water is available at outer end of the pier, where a horse-power derrick is provided for unloading bulk cargoes. A charge of 5 cents per ton is made for dockage. The private wharf is open to the public at the convenience of the owner without charge. It is believed that extension and improvement of the present facilities would lead to increased use by small shippers. Neither wharf is connected with the railway, but access may be had to each over improved highways. The present commerce could be more economically handled and the business of the harbor increased by improvement and extension of the existing facilities. HOUSATONIC RIVER, CONN. The Housatonic River, emptying into Long Tsland Sound about 5 miles east of Bridgeport, is navigable for commercial vessels up to Derby and Shelton, about 13% miles above the mouth. Channels 100 feet wide and 7 feet deep at mean low water are maintained over the various river bars. The commerce of the river is increasing and has 246 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. now reached an annual total of over 330,000 tons, valued at over $3,000,000. By far the larger part, 80 to 90 per cent, of this tonnage is coal carried in box barges towed up the river on the tide. Tm this way vessels drawing up to 10% feet can be delivered at the river wharves. The terminals in active use are well maintained and are equipped with modern facilities for unloading and storing cargo. It is believed that they are adequate for present and reasonably pros- pective traffic. There is no public ownership or development of water-front property. - The terminals on this river may be divided into two groups, one at and near Stratford, about 2 miles above the mouth, and one at Shelton and Derby at the head of navigation. The usual types of construc- tion are longitudinal bulkheads of timber or masonry, backed with earth, or short filled piers. The vessel berths are in general main- tained by dredging at more than the 7-foot depth of the project channel. Coal is the principal article of freight handled on all except two of these wharves and efficient modern mechanical unloading facilities are provided at nearly all of them. . The largest and most important terminal on the river belongs to the American Brass Co. This wharf, an open-pile structure about 600 feet long (210 feet used for unloading), with available depth of 14 feet at low water, is located between the bridges at Stratford. A locomotive crane of 3% tons capacity is used in connection with hoppers, conveyors, and a cable railway for unloading, storing, and reloading onto cars the coal which is distributed by rail to the various plants of the company throughout the Naugatuck Valley. The storage capacity of the plant is about 100,000 tons and the maximum handling capacity very much more. The other wharves at Stratford and those at Derby are of minor importance. The Shelton wharves are well equipped and handle a moderately large traffic during the navigation season. The wharf of the Gulf Refining Co. at Devon is the only wharf other than the American Brass Co.'s that has railroad connections. At this wharf cargoes are pumped into storage tanks and thence distributed by rail. Adequate and improved highways lead to practically all of the wharves. There are no publicly owned terminals on the river. The wharves of the Ousatonic Water Power Co. at Shelton are open to the the public and are extensively used by small shippers and manufac- turing concerns. Charges are made for wharfage and unloading. Two wharves at Derby, indifferently equipped, and one at Stratford, without equipment, are also open to public use on equal terms. The existing facilities are amply able to meet all of the requirements of present traffic and reasonable future increases. BRIDGEPORT HARBOR, CONN. Bridgeport is located on the north shore of Long Island Sound, about 57 miles east of New York City, and about 18 miles west of New Haven. The harbor consists of an outer bay protected by breakwaters and an inner (main) harbor, into which empties three tidal streams, the Poquonock River, Johnsons River and Yellow Mill Pond. Black Rock Harbor and its tributaries, Cedar and Burr Creeks, lying about 24 miles west of the main harbor are also included in Bridgeport harbor. A 300-foot channel 22 feet deep leads through the outer harbor to the inner breakwater from which WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 247 point a channel 200 feet wide and 18 feet deep leads to the lower bridge across the Poquonock. Anchorage basins 22, 18 and 12 feet deep adjoin the main channel. The Poquonock River Channel for about 1 mile has a depth of 18 feet. The Yellow Mill Channel also about 1 mile long is 12 feet deep and the Johnsons River Channel is 9 feet deep up to the head of navigation. The Black Rock and Cedar Creek channels are 12 feet deep and 100 feet wide; Burr Creek has a narrow channel 9 feet deep. All depths refer to mean low water, the mean tidal range being about 6 feet. The total commerce of the harbor averages about a million and a half tons, valued at $100,000,000 to $130,000,000 annually. The principal article of freight is coal, of which about 1,000,000 tons are received annually. Next in tonnage and amounting in receipts and shipments to nearly a quarter million tons, valued at over $100,000,000, is steamboat freight handled by the three lines which serve the port. The other principal items are sand and gravel, petroleum products, iron and steel, building materials and oysters. Practically all of the coal is brought in towed barges of 600 to 1,200 tons capacity, drawing from 10 to 14 feet. Other bulk freight is handled on barges, scows and an occasional schooner. The Oyster industry is carried on by sloops, small steam and gasoline dredges and light draft schooners. Two lines operating large freight steamers make daily trips between Bridgeport and New York City. A third line carrying passengers and freight runs to Port Jefferson on Long Island. These steamers operate on a draft of from 9 to 16 feet. The principal terminals are located in the main harbor, Poquonock River, Yellow Mill Pond and in the upper part of Cedar Creek. The prevailing type of wharf consists of a timber or masonry bulk- head faced with a narrow pile apron. The wharves are with few exceptions parallel with the channels. All of the principal wharves are provided with efficient mechanical facilities for discharging cargo and adequate storage and transfer facilities. Railroad spurs are available along the east side of Yellow Mill Pond and on the westerly side of Cedar Creek. The railroad wharves on the main harbor are adjacent to an extensive freight yard. The existing terminals are adequate for present traffic, but increased and improved facilities are desirable to care for prospective increases in the commerce of the port. The administration of the city terminals is under the direction of the director of public works and the supervision of the harbor is placed on a harbor master, who is chosen by the city government. Foreign vessels and registered vessels of the United States drawing Over 9 feet are subject to compulsory pilotage. The rates are fixed at $1.50 per foot draft inward and $1 per foot outward; for square rigged vessels $2 per foot each way. From November 1 to April 1 an additional charge of 25 cents per foot is made. Charges for towing are fixed by the local towboat company. Wharfage and dockage can be obtained at the public wharves at rates varying with the service secured and the schedules provided. - The city of Bridgeport owns a small wharf on the main harbor at the foot of Wall Street, and also a partially improved, but unusued wharf in the upper Poquonock. It also holds title to tidal flats abutting on the Yellow Mill Channel. The subject of further port development has been under consideration for some time and various 248 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. plans have been prepared, but as yet no definite program for con- struction has been determined. A large extent of unimproved frontage is available for development and ample opportunity exists for the construction of joint rail and water terminals. There are but few terminals of more than average importance. The principal terminal owned by the railroad is its main harbor wharf used by the steamers of the New England Steamship Co. This is a marginal wharf of pile and timber construction about 975 feet in length. Steamers berth alongside a 300 by 30 feet freight shed which is equipped with two power driven escalators on which hand trucks and package freight are transferred between ship and wharf. The shed is served by sidings from the adjacent freight yard. The terminal of the City Ice & Coal Co. on Yellow Mill Pond handles annually a large tonnage of coal. A pile and timber wharf 600 feet in length is served by two efficient hoisting rigs and auto- matic railways for distributing the coal to storage pockets and bins. Coal is reclaimed from storage by mechanical loaders. Railroad connections are available on the wharf, but are not utilized for inter- change of rail and water traffic. A large and modern coal terminal has recently been constructed by the Karm Terminal Co. on the westerly side of the upper Poquonock River. Eighteen feet of water is available along a pile and timber wharf 300 feet in length. Coal is unloaded into an elevated hopper by a 2-ton clamshell rig operated from a fixed jib crane on the steel unloading tower. It then follows one of three courses. To the storage pile by 2-ton cars electrically operated on high level trestles serving the storage area; to similar cars on a lower level trestle for discharging through a traveling chute into standard railroad cars on a double-track siding; or to a 4-bin storage hopper emptying directly into trucks on the wharf level for local delivery. Coal is reclaimed from storage by the automatic cars operating through tunnels under the center of each storage pile and loaded through gates placed at fixed intervals in the roof of the tunnel. By varying the track arrangement the coal may then be loaded into standard cars or placed in the bins for local delivery. The system is very flexible and is designed for future enlargement. The present storage capacity is about 50,000 tons and the figured handling capacity is 2,000 tons in 24 hours. Two wharves on the lower Poquonock, belonging to the Salts Textile Co., each of timber and pile construction are 206 and 325 feet respectively in length. The lower and shorter one has 8 feet of water alongside and is equipped with a steam derrick and storage shed. The upper wharf has 11 to 15 feet of water available and is equipped with modern hoisting apparatus for discharging bulk cargoes. Both wharves are con– nected by driveway to paved streets. The lower wharf of the Crane Co. in the east branch of Cedar Creek is of pile and timber construc- tion about 570 feet long. A depth of 12 feet is maintained along the entire frontage. A stationary jib crane and also a locomotive crane are available for unloading bulk material. The wharf has direct connection through the Crane Co.'s sidings with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad and is adjacent to an improved city street. A portion of their upper wharf not under lease is also avail- able for public use. Charges are fixed for wharfage, unloading, switching, and weighing. - § H. Doc. 652, 66–2. COAL UNLOADING AND STORAGE TERMINAL, BRIDGEPORT, CONN, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 249 The wharves along the east side of Yellow Mill Pond and on the westerly side of Cedar Creek have spur track connections with the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, but so far as is known no direct interchange between rail and water traffic takes place in either locality. With a few exceptions, every wharf is accessible by city streets maintained usually in good condition. SOUTHPORT HARBOR, CONN. This harbor is on the north shore of Long Island Sound, about 7 miles west of Bridgeport. A channel 100 feet wide and 6 feet deep at mean low water has been dredged through the outer bar to inside the breakwater, and thence with reduced width up to and along the wharf front. For many years the annual commerce averaged over 5,000 tons, principally oysters and coal. There are a number of small privately-owned stone bulkhead wharves in this harbor. These wharves are in the nature of landings for pleasure craft. The only wharf available for commercial use has not been so utilized for several years, the commerce of the harbor having practically disappeared. The town highways leading to the wharves are in good condition; there are no railroad connections. Under present conditions no publicly-owned terminal appears to be necessary. WESTPORT HARBOR AND SAUGATUCK RIVER, CONN. Saugatuck River empties into Long Island Sound about 46 miles east of New York City. The channel up to Saugatuck, about 2% miles above the mouth, affords a minimum depth of about 6 feet with ample width; between Saugatuck and Westport, the head of navigation, the project provides for a 60-foot channel 4 feet deep at mean low water. The present controlling depths above Saugatuck are 2% feet to the lower wharves and less than 1 foot to the upper wharves at Westport. The tidal range is 7 feet. The commerce of the waterway averages over 10,000 tons annually, principally coal, with small amounts of building material. The freight is received in box barges drawing from 7 to 9% feet. The necessity of usin partially loaded barges considerably increases the charges on a water-borne freight. There are no publicly-owned wharves. The wharves contiguous to this waterway are located at Saugatuck, about 1 mile above Saugatuck and at the head of navigation at West- port. They are in type longitudinal stone bulkheads faced with piles or a narrow pi. apron. The commerce is small in extent and is carried principally in light draft barges on favorable tides. Depths alongside vary from 0 to 8 feet at mean low water. Prac- tically all are equipped with power hoists for unloading cargo. There are no jº terminals, but one or more of the wharves at each town are open to public use at the owners' conve- nience on payment of nominal charges. There is no railroad con- nection to any of the wharves, but access may be had to all over improved highways. The existing facilities appear to be adequate for present and reasonably prospective traffic and no necessity is seen for the construction of a º terminal. 250 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. NORWALK HARBOR, CONN. Norwalk Harbor is on the north shore of Long Island Sound about 44 miles east of New York City. It comprises an outer bay, known as Sheffield Island Harbor, an inner harbor and the tidal portion of Norwalk River. A channel 150 feet wide and 10 feet deep at mean low water has been dredged up to South Norwalk, and thence 100 feet wide and 8 feet deep to the head of navigation at Norwalk. The tidal range is 6.8 feet. The principal items of commerce are coal, oysters, and oyster shells, wood pulp, sand and stone, and steamboat (package) freight. The normal annual tonnage averages between 200,000 and 250,000 tons, valued variously at from $10,000,000 to over $30,000,000. The oyster industry is carried on in sloops, small schooners, and gasoline or steam power dredges, the smaller craft drawing 4 feet and over, and some of the larger dredges upward of 10 feet. Coal and other bulk freight are towed in box barges and scows drawing 10 to 12 feet. A steamer of 200 or 300 tons register operates between Norwalk, South Norwalk, and New York City. In this harbor the wharves lie along the west side at South Nor- walk and surround the channel and basin at the head of navigation in Norwalk. There are also a few unimportant wharves at the head of the East Norwalk channel. The lower wharves at South Norwalk, used almost exclusively in the oyster business, are narrow piers, usually of open pile construction, on which is built a frame warehouse covering most of the pier area. The available depths at the pierheads and in the slips vary from 4 to 10 feet at low water. Several piers are equipped with mechanical hoists or elevators. These are all privately owned and are not available or adapted for public use. The upper wharves are of the bulkhead and apron type with berths parallel to and adjoining the dredged channel. Depths alongside are maintained by dredging at approximately the channel depth. Most of these wharves are equipped with fairly efficient machinery for unloading bulk freight, principally coal. There is no publicly-owned terminal, but wharves of sufficient capacity to accommodate the occasional shipper are available at nominal terms. One wharf only, at South Norwalk, has a direct railway connection; not used, however, for rail to water transfer. The New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co. owns wharf property at South Norwalk and at Norwalk, which has not been used in many years. Access may be had over improved city streets to all of the South Norwalk wharves. At Norwalk stone bulkheads with narrow pile aprons line with practically continuous frontage both sides of the improved channel and basin. The water area is restricted, and the vessel berths encroach upon the improved waterway. Power hoists for unloading coal, sand, and other bulk cargoes are maintained on all but three wharves. There is no publicly owned terminal at Norwalk, but two of the private wharves are available for public use at the owners' con- venience or by contract or lease. Wharves on the westerly side are connected by spur tracks with the local railroad. So far as is known there is no transfer of traffic between rail and water. All terminals connect by suitable driveways with improved city streets. - While the terminal facilities in this harbor appear to be adequate for the present traffic the construction of a public wharf conveniently WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 251 located and adequately equipped would undoubtedly be of consider- able benefit to small shippers and local manufacturers and would tend to increase the water-borne commerce of the port. The city of Norwalk through a commission appointed for the pur- ose holds title to an extensive tract of marsh and upland lying between the main and East Norwalk channels at South N.i. It, is understood that this area is to be developed by the commission when funds are available. Increased facilities for navigation have been authorized for this harbor contingent upon the construction of a suitable public terminal. The new project contemplates a channel 12 feet deep at mean low water to South Norwalk, an anchorage basin 10 feet deep and about 17 acres in extent opposite the entrance to East Norwalk, and a channel 10 feet deep from South Norwalk to the lead of navigation at Norwalk. FIVE MILE RIVER HARBOR, CONN. This harbor is a tidal inlet about 1 mile long, on the north shore of Long Island Sound, about 41 miles east of New York City. A channel 100 feet wide and 8 feet deep at low water has been dredged through the entrance and along the wharf fronts. The commerce of the har- bor is very small and the tonnage, being dependent on the oyster industry, is variable. The present annual tonnage averages between 1,000 and 2,000 tons, principally oysters and oyster shells. The ves- sels engaged in the traffic are small light draft craft propelled by steam or gasoline. The wharves which formerly served the industry are now but little used except as landings for pleasure craft or for working boats lying up over night in the harbor. There are no publicly- owned terminals, but most of the wharves are open to public use at the owners' convenience. In the absence of a demand for the use of the available private wharves no necessity is seen for the construction of a publicly-owned wharf. - STAMFORD HARBOR, CONN. Stamford Harbor lies on the north shore of Long Island Sound, about 36 miles east of New York City, and consists of an outer bay from which two tidal inlets, known as the east and west branches, extend northerly into the city. A channel 100 feet wide and 9 feet deep has been dredged in the bay and throughout the east branch. The channel in the west branch is 150 feet wide and 7 feet deep at mean low water. The tidal range is 7.3 feet. The normal average annual tonnage of the harbor is between 300,000 and 400,000 tons, valued at between $10,000,000 and $20,000,000. The principal items of freight are coal, general merchandise, sand and stone, pe— troleum products, earths and ores, and miscellaneous building ma— terials carried in steamers, barges, scows, and schooners drawing from 6 to 15 feet. Coal consigned to local manufacturers and dealers comprises about two-thirds of the total tonnage handled. It is towed in box barges drawing from 9 to 12 feet. The Stamford wharves are grouped about the upper ends of the two branch channels. Due to the restricted dimensions of both waterways, longitudinal bulkheads, usually of masonry, with narrow pile aprons are the prevailing type. For the same reason berthing spaces usually encroach upon the ad- jacent channel. The depths alongside are usually maintained by 252 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. dredging to approximately the channel depths. The character and extent of the unloading facilities varies to meet the requirements of the commercial use to which each wharf is put. Where supplied they are, as a rule, adequate and efficient. Warehouse and storage facili- ties are available as required. There are no publicly owned termi– nals, but the city of Stamford has prepared plans for the erection of a suitable wharf on property already acquired along the east-branch channel. Two or three of the private wharves in each branch are available for public use, either by lease or at agreed rates for service. In the east branch a considerable portion of the East Branch Dock Corporation wharf, originally built for public use, has been sold to private concerns, but the frontage of 400 feet remaining, although without mechanical equipment, is used to a considerable extent by small shippers. The other wharves used by the public have modern unloading plants. In the west branch one wharf with unloading equipment is occasionally used by the public. Two other wharves unequipped mechanically are available for public use. A siding of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad passes through the wharf properties on the west side of the east branch and is utilized to some extent in the transshipment of water and rail freight. A siding of the same railroad enters wharf property on the west branch but is not used for interchange of traffic between rail and water. Improved and adequate highways reach most of the terminals and dirt roads in fair condition give access to the remainder. While the existing terminals are adequate for the present traffic, the construction of a suitably equipped wharf in the upper portion of the east branch will be of material benefit to small shippers and pro- vide facilities for prospective increases in the commerce of the port. Additional facilities for navigation are authorized, contingent upon the construction of a suitable public wharf. The city has already secured title to a frontage of over one-quarter mile on the east branch and is preparing plans for the development of the property. The navigation facilities proposed are an entrance channel 12 feet deep at mean low water, a channel 12 feet deep in the east branch, and a channel 9 feet deep in the west branch, with a basin of the same depth 200 feet wide. GREENWICH HARBOR, CONN. This harbor lies on the north shore of Long Island Sound, about 30 miles east of New York City. A channel 90 feet wide and 9 feet deep at mean low water has been dredged from deep water along the lower half of the water front and thence with a 6-foot depth along the upper frontage to the head of navigation. A channel 12 feet deep and 100 to 130 feet wide has been authorized. The mean range of tide is 7.5 feet. The commerce of the harbor consists principally in receipts of coal, building material, petroleum products, and general merchan- dise, and amounts annually to an average of over 100,000 tons, valued at between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000. The larger part of the above freight is handled in box barges drawing from 10 to 12 feet, with an Occasional schooner drawing up to 13 feet. A small freight steamer Operates during part of the year carrying package freight to and from New York City. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 253 The commercial wharves contiguous to this waterway lie along the easterly side of the channel and on both sides of the basin at the head of the harbor. They are practically all longitudinal masonry bulk- heads with pile aprons or fenders along the channel face. Depths in the berths vary from 2.5 feet to 10 feet at low water, or a maximum depth of 17.5 feet at mean high water. On all except one the me- chanical facilities for freight handling are very elemental. The principal wharf, owned by the Maher Bros. Corporation, is located near the head of the harbor. It is equipped with a modern discharg— ing plant with automatic railway for unloading and distributing coal and crushed stone to storage pockets and bins. Other bulk freight is handled by truck to warehouses on the wharf. The town of Green- which owns two small unimproved wharves, neither of which is accessible to commercial vessels. All other wharves are privately owned, but practically all are said to be open for public use at the owners’ convenience. None of the wharves has railroad connections, but an improved highway extends along the water front by which access may be had to all. The existing terminals appear to be ade- quate to meet the demands of present and reasonably prospective . traffic. ; WATER, TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. PAWCATUCK RIVER, R. I. AND CONN.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. SECOND NEW YORK, N.Y., DISTRICT. COL. S. W. ROESSLER, UNITED STATES ARMY RETIRED, IN CHARGE. NEWARK BAY AND PASSAIC RIVER, N. J. Description of waterway.—Passaic River rises in the highlands of northeastern New Jersey and flows in an easterly and southerly direction into Newark Bay, a distance of about 80 miles. It is tidal and navigable up to the Dundee Rapids, a distance of about 16 miles. Newark Bay is an estuary about 1% miles wide and 6 miles long, extending southerly from the confluence of the Passaic and Hacken- sack Rivers to Staten Island Sound and Kill van Kull. 1. Faisting project.—The existing project for the improvement of this waterway provides for a main channel in Newark Bay 400 feet wide and 20 feet deep; for a side channel of the same dimensions connecting with the Port Newark Terminal Channel, leading from the main channel in the bay to the United States pierhead line; for a channel in Passaic River 20 feet deep and 300 feet wide to the Nairn Linoleum Works, 5.8 miles, thence 16 feet deep and 200 feet wide to the Montclair & Greenwood Lake Railroad bridge about 1.1 miles, thence 7% feet deep and 150 feet wide through Belleville Bar, and thence 6 feet deep and 50 to 100 feet wide to the Gregory Avenue highway bridge at Passaic about 6 miles. The mean tidal range is about 5 feet in Newark Bay and in the Passaic River up to the Montclair and Greenwood Lake Railroad bridge, and about 4.6 feet at the Gregory Avenue highway bridge at Passaic. - 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of this water- way amounted in 1917 to 4,977,005 tons valued at $199,344,078. Indications are that in 1918 this was increased by about 500,000 tons and the valuation by at least $150,000,000. In 1917, 47,681 passengers were carried. This commerce consisted chiefly in sand, stone, building materials, chemicals, ores, metals, powder, munitions, oils, and general merchandise. Most of the goods were transported to or from points within the harbor of Greater New York. Large quantities of supplies were shipped on scows and lighters from the United States Engineers depot at Kearny and the United States Quartermasters depot at Port Newark to points in New York Harbor, and there placed aboard vessels for shipment overseas. A large development of the lower stretches of the river and upper stretches of the bay has been made by plants engaged in war industries, and it is due to this development that the total commerce has increased during the past few years; the commerce of the peace-time industries during this period having greatly decreased. - 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The tonnage of the boats carrying these commodities varied from 7 to about 5,000 tons, and their drafts from 4 to 26 feet. The 26-foot draft vessels were steamers of 313 314 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 5,000 tons capacity. They made about 25 trips and carried oil into the extreme lower end of the bay. The bulk of the commodities were carried on scows and barges carrying from 400 to 900 tons and having an average draft of from 7 to 9 feet when loaded. Three or four companies operated a steam lighterage service between Newark and New York, and carried large quantities of general merchandise and package freight. These boats carried between 200 and 300 tons and had a draft of about 11 feet when loaded. A few schooners came into the river carrying lumber and brick. They carried from 100 to 800 tons, and drew from 6 to 14 feet when loaded. The largest barges brought into the river carried around 1,000 tons and drew about 14 or 15 feet when loaded. The draft of the tugs towing in the river varied between 6 and 14 feet. 4. Terminals—General information.—There are about 14 terminals on Newark Bay and about 130 on Passaic River. These terminals are mostly small uncovered wharves or bulkhead wharves back filled with dirt. They are all connected with highways, and the larger industries are connected with railroads. There are no public terminals outside of Newark and Bayonne. Wharves which can be used by the public are available at practically all localities, and sites are available for the establishment of public terminals at all points where the necessity for such terminals exist. Adequacy of terminals.-These terminals appear adequate to meet existing demands of commerce. Should the project for improve- ment of the waterway be extended in the upper reaches of the river, a public terminal which could be utilized by shippers of Paterson should be built in Passaic. Port administration, etc.—A joint commission from New Jersey and New York, known as the New York and New Jersey Port and Harbor Development Commission, is now endeavoring to establish uniform regulations for the government of the harbor of Greater New York. This waterway comes within the scope of this harbor. No definite results have been reached to date. The New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation has jurisdiction over all river and harbor improvements within the State. Its approval is necessary before any contemplated improvements can be carried out. Great interest has been shown by the people of Newark during the past few years in the development of the waterfront of the city on Newark Bay. The development of a large public terminal, known as Port Newark Terminal, was begun. At the time of commencement of the war considerable work had been done on this terminal; an entrance channel had been dredged 400 feet wide, 20 feet deep, and about 7,000 feet long; a timber wharf 4,500 feet long, and 8,000 linear feet of bulkhead had been built; 250 acres of land had been filled in; streets had been paved; water mains and sewers had been laid; and about 15 miles of railroads connecting with the Pennsylvania, Lehigh Valley, and the New Jersey Central had been built. Upward of $2,000,000 was spent on these improvements. When war was declared half of this property was taken over by the United States and converted into a quartermasters depot where supplies are brought in by rail and lightered to points in New York Harbor for overseas shipment; the balance of the property was taken by the Emergency Fleet Corporation and leased to the Submarine Boat Corporation, which has converted it into a 28-way shipyard and is building steel WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 315 ships. Another large terminal, the United States Engineers depot, has been located on the river since the commencement of the war. This terminal is used for the transfer of engineer supplies from rail- way cars to lighters which carry the supplies to vessels located in New York Bay to be transported overseas. HACKENSACK RIVER, N. J. Description of waterway:-This is a tidal river rising near Haver- straw, Rockland County, N. Y., and flowing in a southerly direction into Newark Bay, about 39 miles, in a direct line from its source. 1. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 16 feet deep at mean low water, and 300 feet wide to the vicinity of the Central Railroad of New Jersey bridge, about 1 mile; thence to Little Ferry 113 miles, 12 feet deep and 200 feet wide; and thence 24 miles, 12 feet deep and 150 feet wide. The mean range of tides is about 5 feet. 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce in 1918 amounted to 1,841,548 tons valued at $10,228,032. The principal commodities with approximate tonnage and valuation are: Coal, 1,000,658 tons, $4,875,918; stone, sand, and gravel, 372,632 tons, $317,747; ores and metals, 4,280 tons, $107,000; coke, 51,516 tons, $400,000; general merchandise, 260,004 tons, $1,302,400; and oils, 88,523 tons, $1,322,833. Large quantities of brick, tallow, and rosin were also carried. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The above commerce was largely carried in barges and canal boats carrying from 350 to 1,500 tons and drawing from 7 to 16 feet when loaded. The greater number of the boats averaged between 500 and 800 tons, and had a draft around 8 and 9 feet. Nine trips were recorded of 1,500-ton seagoing barges drawing 16 feet. Six lumber schooners came into the river carrying between 300 and 500 tons and drawing between 12 and 15 feet. A small portion of the commerce was carried by small steam lighters carrying up to 300 tons and drawing up to 12 feet. The tugboats towing on the river had an average draft of from 8 to 12 feet. 4. Terminals—General information.—There are 35 wharves or terminals located on the river. These terminals are all connected by highways. All of the larger plants are connected by railroads. There is only one publicly owned terminal, which is open to all on equal terms. This is a wharf owned by Jersey City. Wharves are available for public use at nearly all localities along the river, and sites are available at all localities. Adequacy of terminals.-The terminals appear adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. . The develop- ment of the water front along the lower stretches of the river has been rapid during the last two years. Port administration, etc.—This waterway can be considered as com- ing within the port or harbor of Greater New York. A joint com- mission from the States of New York and New Jersey, known as the New York and New Jersey Port and Harbor Development Commis- sion, is now laboring on the proposition of providing uniform regu- lations, port charges, etc., for all points coming within the scope of the harbor. No definite results have come as yet from the labors of this commission. The State of New Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which 316 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within that State. Great interest has been manifested in the improvement of the lower stretches of the river during the past two years by the chamber of commerce and municipal authorities of Jersey City. The city of Jersey City, in addition to the public dock mentioned above, owns Droyers Point and 500 feet of undeveloped frontage north of the Central Railroad of New Jersey bridge. It proposes to develop at Droyers Point a large and modern terminal. This work has been retarded by the war, but it is understood that the project is to go forward soon. - ARTHUR KILL OR STATEN ISLAND SOUND, AND CHANNEL NORTH OF SHOOTERS ISLAND, BETWEEN NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY. Description of waterway.—Staten Island Sound is a strait about 17 miles long, lying between New Jersey and Staten Island. It con- nects Raritan Bay with upper New York Bay and consists of Arthur Kill, about 12 miles long from Raritan Bay to Newark Bay; the łº end of Newark Bay, 2 miles wide; and Kill van Kull, 3 miles Ong. 1. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 25 feet deep at mean low water and 400 feet wide from deep water east of Shooters Island to Perth Amboy, a distance of about 14 miles, with a suitable turning basin of the same depth at the mouth of Fresh Kills. The existing project for the channel north of Shooters Island provides for a channel 1 mile in length, 300 feet wide, and 16 feet deep, connecting the main channel of Arthur Kill with that of Newark Bay. 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of the water- way consists principally of coal, oil, clay products, ores, chemicals, fertilizer, grain, machinery, manufactures, and general merchandise. The commerce for the calendar year 1917 for the section of the water- way under improvement by the Federal Government amounted to 29,687,191 short tons, valued at $1,078,460,430. The total com- merce of Staten Island Sound for 1917, which includes Kill van Kull, was 40,100,621 short tons, valued at $1,327,997,462. - 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The tonnage transported in 1917 over the section of the waterway under improvement was carried in 94,470 vessels, which were divided as follows: Six thousand two hundred and ninety American and 341 foreign steamers of net regis- tered tonnages varying between 40 and 5,048 tons and drafts when loaded varying between 6 and 30 feet; 916 American and 158 foreign sailing vessels of net registered tonnages varying between 40 and 2,000 tons and drafts when loaded varying between 6 and 24 feet; 23,125 barges of net registered tonnages varying between 40 and 2,500 tons and drafts when loaded varying between 6 and 22 feet; 706 unregistered steamers of an average capacity of 75 tons and aver- age draft of 7 feet; 295 unregistered sailing vessels of an average capacity of 100 tons and average draft of 4 feet; 32,574 unregistered barges of capacities ranging between 240 and 1,240 tons and drafts varying between 5 and 12% feet; 30,065 power boats, etc., of capaci- ties ranging between 33 and 100 tons and drafts ranging between 3 and 10 feet. In addition to the above cargo-carrying vessels it is estimated that the towboats of drafts varying between 8 and 18 feet made over 8,000 trips in 1917 through this waterway in towing the WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 317 55,699 barges and 50 per cent of the steamers and sailing vessels mentioned above. 4. Terminals—General information.—There are 109 wharves or ter- minals located on the section of the waterway under improvement. There are seven publicly owned wharves located on this waterway: One at Mariners Harbor, Staten Island, N. Y.; three at Elizabeth, N. J.; one at Carteret, N. J.; one at Rossville, Staten Island, N. Y.; and one at Perth Amboy, N. J. Only one has direct railroad con- nection, one has railroad near by, and one, located at Perth Amboy, although publicly owned, is at present used as a United States quar- antine station. They all have good highways leading to them. None have mechanical appliances for handling freight. There are 102 privately owned wharves, used, with very few exceptions, exclu- sively by their owners; 51 of them have direct railroad connection or the railroad connects with the plant, 20 have no highway connect- ing wharf and public street, 49 have mechanical appliances for han- dling freight, which vary from the simple derrick and boom to the McMyler coal tipple, which transfers coal from rail to water carriers. Of the 102 privately owned wharves or terminals 10 are well-equipped shipyards and 4 are large coal terminals where coal is transferred from cars to barges. Adequacy of terminals.-The development of the present and pros- pective industries which use this waterway for transportation is de- pendent to a great extent on the depth of water provided in the Government channel. The industries at present are located almost entirely on the water front. Consequently there has been no demand for public terminals to handle water-borne freight in addition or extension of those now provided. All of the terminals are generally efficient for the particular purpose for which they are used. There will be no demand for well-equipped public terminals until available sites fronting on the waterway are occupied and manufacturing con- cerns are compelled by lack of water-front sites to locate inland. This condition has been practically reached on the New Jersey side of the waterway. The Staten Island side is still to be developed from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad bridge southward. The lack of development on this side of the waterway is due in part to the fact that the dredged channel follows closely the natural channel, which for the most part is close to the New Jersey side, and in part to the fact that there is no marginal railway provided on the Staten Island side. The public wharves provided on the New Jersey side will be entirely inadequate for their purpose if the future industrial develop- ment is #. and the absence of adequate public terminals wi retard such future development. Immediate steps should be taken either by local or other authorities to acquire suitable sites for pub- lic terminals, which should have the necessary frontage on the water- way to meet the absolutely certain demand in the future for such terminals. Port administration, etc.—As there is no great demand for public terminals, the cities and towns located on this waterway have shown practically no interest in port administration. The city of Elizabeth makes uniform charge per day, dependent on the tonnage of the ves- sels using the public wharves, of which there are three. The State of New Jersey, through the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, exercises authority over all riparian improvements within the State for purposes of taxation. A joint commission of the 3.18 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. States of New York and New Jersey, known as the New York and New Jersey Port and Harbor Development Commission, has been appointed recently and is now endeavoring to formulate uniform rules and regulations for the administration of the harbor of Greater New York. Any rules and regulations which this commission may formulate will apply to the ports located on this waterway. 5. Important ports.--All the ports located on this waterway are considered to be a part of the port of Greater New York. Four great railroads have coal terminals located on the section of the waterway under improvement: The Central Railroad of New Jersey, located at Elizabethport, N. J.; the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, located at How- land Hook, Staten Island, N. Y.; the Philadelphia & Reading Rail- road, located at Port Reading, N. J.; and the Lehigh Valley Rail- road, located at Perth Amboy, N. J. In addition the Pennsylvania Railroad has a coal terminal located at South Amboy. The coal is transferred from rail to water carriers by the most modern and effi- cient methods, which tend to reduce the terminal charges to a mini- mum. The Long Leaf Yellow Pine Co. has a well-equipped terminal for handling lumber by means of a traveling crane which transfers lumber in carload lots from water to rail carriers. No lumber has been transferred over this wharf for nearly two years on account of scarcity of vessels and lack of sufficient depth in the Government channel to accommodate deep-draft vessels, which are necessary for the economical operation of this plant. All of the larger industrial concerns have efficient machinery for the rapid turn around of vessels. ELIZABETH RIVER, N. J. Description of waterway.-This is a small tidal stream rising near East Orange, N. J., and flowing in a generally southeasterly direction about 9 miles into the Arthur Kill at Elizabethport, N. J. 1. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water and 60 feet wide, extending from the mouth to the New York & Long Branch Railroad bridge, a distance of 1 mile. The mean range of tides at the mouth is about 4.7 feet. 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of this river consists mainly in lumber, rosin, oils, rags, and felt. It is practically all from plants located at or near the mouth of the river. The com- merce in 1918 amounted to 12,468 tons, valued at $904,382. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The kind of vessels used were mostly small barges carrying from 100 to 600 tons and drawing from 4 to 9 feet when fully loaded. There is also an occasional load of bricks in schooners carrying about 75 tons and drawing about 5 feet. 4. Terminals—General information.—The city of Elizabeth owns a public bulkhead wharf on this river, which is the only wharf open for public use. There are 14 wharves on this waterway. Adequacy of terminals.-The terminals are adequate for the present and prospective requirements of commerce. Port administration, etc.—A joint commission from New York and New Jersey, known as the New York and New Jersey Port and Harbor Development Commission, is now working on the subject of port administration and port charges for the port of New York. As this waterway comes within the scope of the port of New York, this work can be considered as having a bearing on it. No definite results have WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 319 come of the work of the commission to date. No general interest, as far as is known, has been shown by local authorities toward im- roving terminal facilities. The State of New Jersey has a board, ſº as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within the limits of that State. WOODBRIDGE CREEK, N. J. Description of waterway.—This is a small crooked tidal stream about 5 miles long, rising near Rockaway and flowing southerly and easterly through marshes into the west side of Arthur Kill or Staten Island Sound, 2 miles north of Perth Amboy, N. J. 1. Evisſing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 8 feet deep at mean low water, 50 feet wide on the bottom, and 75 feet wide on top, extending from the Arthur Kill to the Salamander Dock, a distance of about 9,600 feet. The mean range of tides is about 5 feet. 2. Characer and extent of commerce.—The commerce of the creek in 1918 amounted to 21,869 tons valued at $2,134,074. This is about one-half the tonnage of former years, due to a decrease in the clay and clay-products industries because of war conditions. The com- merce of this river is principally brick, fire brick, clay, terra cotta, fuel oil, and tin scrap. Extensive clay deposits near the creek make the clay and clay-products industries a most important one. A large detinning plant which brings in large quantities of tin scrap by water is located along the waterway. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The bulk of the commerce is carried in small unregistered barges, deck scows, and canal boats towed by small tugs. These boats carry about 400 tons when loaded and draw up to 9 feet. The brick and clay products are carried mostly on deck scows; the clay and tin scrap, in small barges and canal boats. 4. Terminals—General information.—The terminal facilities of the Creek consist of small uncovered wharves. These are nine in number; one is publicly owned and open for public use on payment of wharfage rates; another is privately owned, but is open for public use under the same conditions as the public wharf; the remainder are used by their owners for private purposes. All of these wharves are accessible to or are near adequate highways. There is no direct physical con- nection between rail and water carriers at any of the wharves, although the railroad passes near all of them. All plants, except the two wharves mentioned as being opened to the public, have railroad con- nections, although the wharves themselves are not directly connected, There are nine terminals on this waterway. Adequacy of terminals.-The wharves are adequate to handle the resent and immediately prospective requirements of commerce. he nature and extent of the commerce call for no extensive terminal improvements. The facilities open for public use are sufficient to provide for all present needs. w Port administration, etc.—No public interest, as far as is known, has been shown by local authorities looking toward administration and control of terminal facilities on this waterway. A joint commission from New York and New Jersey, known as the New York and New Jersey Port and Harbor Development Commission, is now considering fº. 320 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the subject of port administration and charges for the port of New York. As this waterway is considered to be a part of the port of New York, it is thought that any future plan for port administration developed by the commission will apply to this waterway. . The State of New Jersey has a board known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within the limits of that State. RARITAN BAY, N. Y. AND N. J. Description of waterway.-Raritan Bay lies between the southern end of Staten Island and the New Jersey shore, with lower New York Bay on the east. Its greatest width, north and south, is about 5 miles; and its greatest length, east and west, is about 7 miles. Raritan River flows into its west end between Perth Amboy and South Amboy, and the Arthur Kill or Staten Island Sound extends northward from this point to New York Bay. 1. Evisſing project.—The existing project provides for three chan- nels 300 feet wide and 21 feet deep at mean low water: One extending from Seguine Point to deep water in the bay, a distance of about 1% miles; another through two shoals opposite Wards Point, aggregating a length of 23 miles; and another extending from South Amboy to deep water near Great Beds Light, a distance of 1% miles. The mean range of tides is 5 feet. 2. Character and extent of commerce.—A large proportion of the commerce passing over the bay originates, terminates, or passes through Arthur Kill or Staten Island Sound. The commerce in 1917 was estimated at 9,362,466 short tons, valued at $250,078,611; in addition 426,600 passengers were carried; 5,639,615 tons were esti- mated to be coal. The principal other commodities carried were ores, crude asphalt, oils, brick, explosives, fertilizers, refined copper, lead, clay products, sand, stone, and general merchandise. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The above tonnage was carried in vessels drawing from 5 to 24 feet when loaded. It is estimated that these vessels made a total of 45,823 trips. The vessels were divided as follows: 5,077 steamers, drawing from 6 to 23 feet when loaded; 6,272 sailing vessels, drawing from 6 to 24 feet when loaded; and 34,447 barges, drawing from 5 to 24 feet when loaded. It is estimated that at least 5 per cent of these vessels draw over 23 feet when fully loaded and have to be lightered. The steamers are tramp steamers, having a tonnage varying between 1,000 and 3,746 tons, and small steamboats or lighters of 200 or 300 tons capacity. The large steamers generally carried raw materials from foreign ports; 111 of the trips were made by steamers under foreign registry. The sailing vessels varied from small schooners of 25 tons registry draw- ing about 6 feet, to large schooners carrying 2,000 tons and draw- ing about 24 feet, 56 trips being credited to sailing vessels of foreign registry. The barges varied from small canal boats carrying from 150 to 200 tons and drawing about 5 feet, to large ocean-going coal barges carrying about 5,000 tons. 4. Terminals—General information.—The bulk of the commerce passing over Raritan Bay originates or has its destination at terminals on the Staten Island Sound or on other tributaries of the bay. There are 16 terminals located on Raritan Bay, of which 3 are publicly owned by the towns of South Amboy, Atlantic Highlands, and WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 321 Princess Bay, respectively, and are open for public use. The other terminals are used for private purposes only. Possibly short leases or arrangements can be made for temporary use of some of the docks. Available space is found at all points where public wharves might be built. All the wharves are connected by highways or are in close F.F. to highways. With the exception of the Pennsylvania ailroad coal piers and the Central Railroad of New Jersey piers at Atlantic Highlands, there are no direct railroad connections. Adequacy of terminals.-The terminals are adequate to meet the present requirements of commerce. Sites are available for the erec- tion of needed terminals as the development along the shores of the bay proceeds. Port, administration, etc.—The entire bay can be considered as coming within the harbor or port of Greater New York. A joint commission representing the States of New York and New Jersey, known as the New York and New Jersey Port and Harbor Develop- ment Commission, is now working on the project of port administra- tion, port charges, traffic, etc., for New York and vicinity. No defi- nite results have come of the work of the commission to date. The State of New Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development, within the limits of that State. . 5. Imporanº porcs—General efficiency of port as a whole.—The city of Perth Amboy is a port of entry, having a customs office, quarantine station, etc., although coming within the limits of the harbor of Greater New York. It has nearly 50,000 inhabitants and is located at the west end of Raritan Bay at the junction of the Raritan River and the Arthur Kill. Its principal terminals are located on these two waterways; only one is located on Raritan Bay proper. It is an important manufacturing center; 289 vessels cleared during 1918 with tonnages varying from 200 to 2,000 tons, and drafts varying from 16 to 23 feet. The number of vessels registered during the same period was 245; 70 being steamers, 66 sailing vessels, and 109 barges. Practically all of the vessels clearing from Perth Amboy carried cargoes. These vessels were loaded at the manufacturing plants located at various points along the Arthur Kill. The controlling depth of the entrance channel is about 20 feet. There is good anchor- age in water about 30 feet deep off Perth Amboy in the Arthur Kill. Steamers are not coaled direct from piers, but coal is readily obtain- able in barges from the large coal terminals of the Pennsylvania Railroad at South Amboy, and the Lehigh Valley Railroad and Reading Railroad, located on the Arthur Kill at Perth Amboy and Port Reading. The facilities for repairs to hulls of vessels are excellent. - Important terminal units.-The most important and efficient terminal unit of the locality is the coal terminal of the Pennsylvania Railroad Co., located at the western end of Raritan Bay, at South Amboy, N. J. This is the eastern terminus for the coal brought from the coal fields of Pennsylvania by the Pennsylvania Railroad. It is here loaded into canal boats and barges, and taken by water to New York and points east. Location, etc.—The terminal is owned by the United New Jersey Railroad & Canal Co., and leased to the Pennsylvania Railroad Co., 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—21 322 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. who sublet it to the Eastern. Coal Dock Co. It consists of four large piers or docks directly connecting with the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks. It has a large track storage adjacent. The unloading facili- ties consist of two McMyler car dumpers, one gravity pier, and two thawing plants. The coal is dumped directly into boats from cars. The average capacity is 300 cars per day; the maximum capacity is 600 cars per day. The bulk of the coal is loaded into barges and canal boats which are towed in large flotillas of from 15 to 30 boats, through the Arthur Kill to Upper New York Bay where each flotilla is divided and distributed to points in the harbor or towed to points farther east or north. Data on the cost of the terminal are not available. RARITAN RIVER, N. J. Description of waterway.—This is a moderate-sized tidal stream about 70 miles long, rising in the north central part of New Jersey and flowing in a general southeasterly direction into Raritan Bay, between Perth Amboy and South Amboy. - 1. Existing project.—The existing project as last modified by the river and harbor act approved March 2, 1919, provides for a channel 15 feet deep and 200 feet wide to Washington Canal, thence 150 feet wide and 10 feet deep to the canal locks at New Brunswick, and for the south channel between Crab Island and Kearnys Dock 10 feet deep and 150 feet wide. - - 2. Character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce of this river is principally coal, Ores, refined metals, brick, fireproofing materials, clay, sand, drugs, chemicals, and general merchandise. During 1918 considerable quantities of munitions and explosives were shipped by water from Raritan Arsenal, an ordnance depot on this river. The commerce in 1918 amounted to 824,614 short tons valued at $131,391,056. This was a considerable decrease over the tonnage of previous years due to scarcity and high cost of labor, the curtail- ment of building operations by private parties, and the resulting shut down of the sand, gravel, and clay product industries. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—A steamboat line operates 4 or 5 steam freight lighters which transport freight between New Bruns- wick and New York. They carry practically all the general merchan- dise, drugs, chemicals, and rubber goods, mentioned above. These boats have a registered tonnage varying from 150 to 372 tons, and draw from 7% to 10 feet when loaded. In 1918 they made 992 trips. Practically all the brick, fire brick, and clay products are carried on deck scows of about 400 tons capacity, which draw from 7 to 8 feet, and a small schooner of 25 to 100 tons capacity which draws between 6 and 8 feet. Other commodities are mostly carried in canal boats and barges varying from 150 to 800 tons, which draw from 6 to 12 feet. Practically all the munitions shipped from Raritan Arsenal to points in New York Harbor were lightered on deck scows and barges and placed aboard tramp steamers for ship- ment to France. - 4. Terminals—General information.—The terminal facilities of the river consist in the main of wharves or bulkhead wharves. One publicly owned wharf is located on the Delaware and Raritan Canal, at New Brunswick. This wharf is open for public use. Other wharves can be leased by the public; and there is property avail- able at practically all localities along the river where terminals can WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 323 be erected. There are 20 private terminals on the Raritan River and 15 on the Delaware and Raritan Canal, at New Brunswick, N. J. Adequacy of terminals.-The terminals appear adequate to handle the present and the immediate prospective requirements of com— merce. An improved public terminal at New Brunswick would be an advantage. The Pennsylvania Railroad Co. has control of all the most desirable and accessible ground for this purpose. Port administration, etc.—So far as .known, no efforts have been made by interested parties to formulate regulations, or uniform wharfage charges, etc., on this waterway. No great interest has been shown toward the improvement of present or establishment. of additional terminals. The waterway can perhaps be considered as an integral part of the harbor of Greater New York, and as such would be affected by the joint commission from the States of New York and New Jersey, known as the New York and New Jersey Port and Harbor Development Commission, which is now laboring to bring about an agreement between the two States regarding lighters, charges, etc. The State of New Jersey has a board known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation which must pass on all contemplated water-front developments within the limits of the State. souTH RIVER, N. J. Description of waterway.—This is a small tidal river rising in central New Jersey, about 7 miles southwest of Freehold, and flow— ing about 20 miles to one mile above Sayreville, N. J., where it. empties into Raritan River about 8 miles above its mouth. Wash– ington Canal, three-quarters of a mile long, runs from near the town of South River to the Raritan River, shortening the sailing distance by about 2 miles. 1. Existing project.—The existing project calls for a channel from the mouth of Washington Canal to Old Bridge, a distance of 6.3 miles; the channel to be 100 feet wide and 8 feet deep at mean low- water to Washington or South River, and thence 100 feet wide and 6 feet deep to Old Bridge. The tidal range is 5.34 feet in Wash– ington Canal and 4.57 feet at Old Bridge. 2. Character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce of the river is principally brick, clay products, sand, clay, manure, and farm products. There is an underlying stratum of brick clay along this. river, and large brickyards established along its banks give the river a commercial importance out of proportion to its size. The commerce in 1918 amounted to 21,500 tons valued at $71,211. Owing to war conditions the tonnage was only about one-tenth as. large as normal. - *. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The bulk of the commerce is. carried in towed barges and deck scows drawing from 6 to 10 feet. of water when loaded, and carrying up to about 900 tons. A few small schooners carry brick out of the river. These schooners draw from 5 to 8 feet and carry from 50 to 160 tons. - 4. Terminals—General information.—They consist of small un- covered wharves mostly used for shipping brick and clay products. One public wharf owned by the Borough of South River is located on the river. In addition 13 private parties or companies have: terminal facilities. -" 324 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Other wharves have been located along the river, but are now unfit for use. In addition to the town wharf at South River, the South River Brick Co., wharf can be used by the public by permis- sion; and the wharf of the Old Bridge Enameled Brick & Tile Co. is open to the public at a small fee. All the wharves have highway connections and most of the plants have physical connections with railroads, although the wharves themselves are not directly con- nected. No elaborate mechanical appliances are used for handling freight; the facilities consist principally of single mast derricks. º of terminals.-The terminals and terminal facilities in general, while of the most simple sort, appear adequate to meet the present and prosepctive requirements of commerce. Port administration, etc.—Apparently no effort has been made by local authorities looking toward administration and control of ter- minal facilities on this waterway. After the improvement of the river had been completed in 1914, a steam freight boat ran to Old Bridge during one summer season and part of another carrying farm products to the New York markets; another steam freight lighter made daily trips between South River and New York for a time, but both enterprises were discontinued owing to lack of patronage. The State of §. Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within the limits of that State. CHEESEQUAKE CREEK, N. J. Description of waterway:-This is a small tidal stream, 6 to 7 miles long, rising near Old Bridge and flowing northeasterly into Raritan Bay, about 2 miles southeast of South Amboy. 1. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a channel at the mouth of the creek into Raritan Bay 5 feet deep and nearly 200 feet wide, thence a channel 4 feet deep and 50 to 100 feet wide to the head of navigation, 3% miles up the creek. The mean range of tides is 5 feet. 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of Cheese- quake Creek for the last few years prior to the war was small. In 1918 it amounted to 40,513 tons valued at $24,351,501. It consisted principally of farm products, clay, manure, explosives, and loaded shells. Since the war the Government has purchased a tract of land containing several thousand acres on the northwest side of the creek near the mouth, and has erected a large shell-loading plant thereon. It was intended to ship a large part of the output by water, by way of Cheesequake Creek, º it to steamships in Raritan and New York Bays. A large wharf was built and three other wharves were taken over; the channel is being dredged by the Ordnance Depart- ment to a depth of 8 feet from the 8-foot curve in Raritan Bay to a point three-quarters of a mile above the New York & Long Branch #. bridge. During 1918, 2,049,942 high-explosive shells weigh- ing 26,870 tons were shipped by this route. e 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The explosive shells mentioned above were carried on deck scows of 350 and 425 tons capacity, drawing from 3% to 64 feet; the manure was brought in on deck scows averaging around 500 tons capacity and drawing about 7 feet; clay was taken out in small canal boats or unregistered barges of 250 to 300 tons capacity, drawing about 5 feet; and the farm produce was WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 325 transported in a small steamboat of 238 registered tons and a draft of about 8 feet when loaded. This steamer made daily trips between the upper end of the creek and New York City during the summer S08,SOIl. 4. Terminals—General information.—There are 6 wharves located on this creek, the largest of which is 500 feet long and was built in 1918 by the Ordnance Department of the United States Army; 3 other wharves were taken over by the Government for use in con- nection with the shell-loading plant. The remaining 2 wharves are a clay wharf owned by H. C. Perrine, located about 1.6 miles above the New York & Long Branch Railroad bridge, and a steamboat wharf owned by the Middlesex Producers Association, located near the head of navigation, about 2.65 miles above the New York & Long Branch Railroad bridge. The large Government wharf has railroad connections. The steamboat wharf has a good highway connection. The other wharves have neither railroad nor highway connections. Adequacy of terminals.—The wharves on the creek are considered adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of com— IOleI’Ce. Port administration, etc.—No action has been taken by local in- terests to formulate regulations for the users of the creek or to estab- lish uniform wharfage rates, etc. No efforts have been made looking toward a greater utilization of navigation facilities afforded. The State of New Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within the limits of that State. KEYPORT HARBOR, N. J. Description of waterway.—Keyport Harbor lies at the mouth of Matawan Creek, on the south side of Raritan Bay, 5 miles east of the mouth of Raritan River, and about 9 miles west of Sandy Hook; it consists of a bay 1 mile broad. It is sheltered on the east by Cona- skonk Point, and on the west by Matawan Point. It is about 25 miles distant from New York City. 1. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a channel about 1 mile long from Raritan Bay to the steamboat dock at Key- port; the width to be 200 feet, and the depth to be 8 feet at mean low water. The mean range of tides is 4.9 feet. 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce passing over Keyport Harbor in 1918 amounted to 27,857 tons valued at $705,173. This tonnage was much smaller in 1917 and 1918 than during previous years, due in a large measure to the decrease in shipments of farm produce, and to the falling off in the commerce of Matawan Creek at the head of the harbor. The commerce of the harbor is mainly farm products, manure, coal, shellfish, and miscellaneous freight. In addition to the above commerce about 50,000 passengers were carried. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The bulk of the commerce is carried by small steamers. The New York & Keansburg Steam- boat Co. operated a line of 3 steamboats between Keyport, Keans- burg, and New York during the summer season, carrying general merchandise and passengers; the 3 steamboats had a registered tonnage of 540, 610, and 627 tons, respectively, and drew between 326 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 6 and 8 feet when loaded. The New York & New Jersey Steam- boat Co. operated 4 steam lighters to New York during the summer season of 1917, carrying farm produce, general merchandise, and package freight, the largest carrying about 300 tons and drawing up to 11 feet. In 1918 it operated only 1 boat, which was registered ‘to carry 320 tons and which had a draft of 11 feet when loaded. In addition some sand, stone, and coal are brought in by barges carrying about 800 tons and drawing between 8 and 9 feet. Oysters are brought in by small steamers or gasoline boats carrying from 5 to 80 tons and drawing about 5 feet, and by schooners carrying about 100 tons and drawing between 6 and 7 feet. - 4. Terminals—General information.—There are now four wharfs on Reyport Harbor at Keyport in condition for use. Another wharf, reported under Matawan Creek, is located almost within the confines of the harbor, at the mouth of Matawan Creek, and is owned by the J. & J. W. Ellsworth Co., who operate a coal yard and oyster-canning plant. All the wharves are privately owned, and only one is reported º for public use on equal terms to all. It is believed, however, that the others can be leased. All have good highway connections, but no rail connections, and are in good condition for use. Adequacy of terminals.-There seems to be a sufficient number of wharves to supply the demands of commerce for the present and immediate future. A public dock, centrally located, which could be #. for unloading fertilizer, coal, sand, stone, etc., would be bene- Clal. Port administration, etc.—No action has been taken by local in- terests to formulate regulations for the use of the harbor, nor to establish uniform wharfage rates. No especial general interest has manifested itself looking toward improvement of the terminal facili- ties or a greater utilization of the navigation facilities provided. The State of New Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within the limits of that State. MATAWAN CREEK, N. J. Description of waterway.—This is a small tidal stream, about 5 to 6 miles long, rising in the eastern part of New Jersey near Matawan, and flowing northeasterly º salt marshes, and emptying into Raritan Bay through Keyport Harbor. - - - 1. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 4 feet deep at mean low water, and 100 feet wide, to Winkson Creek, a distance of 1 mile, thence 75 feet wide to the New York & Long Branch Railroad trestle at Matawan, about 1 mile. The mean range of tides is 4.9 feet. - - - - 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of this creek is very small, having deteriorated greatly during the last few years. The principal industry on the creek is a brickyard. This plant for- merly shipped largely by water, but the depth of water in the channel is insufficient to accommodate brick barges now in use, and shipment is now made almost entirely by rail. The commerce of 1918 con- sisted of 15 barges or deck-scow loads of manure amounting to 3,072. tons valued at $6,144. This was carried to a small wharf about 1,200 feet below the New York & Long Branch Railroad trestle. - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 327 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The manure shown above was brought in on small deck scows towed by small tugboats. These scows when fully loaded carried about 400 tons and drew between 8 and 9 feet. Owing to the shallow channel these boats were not loaded to full capacity. - - 4. Terminals—General information.—The terminal facilities of the creek consist of nine small uncovered wharves of the simplest con- struction and are generally in poor condition. A wharf near the head of the project, owned by the borough of Matawan, was formerly open to the public but is now unfit for use. Another wharf, located º 1,200 feet below the New York & Long Branch Railroad bridge, can be used by the public at wharfage rates of $6 per day per boat. All others are privately owned and reserved for private use. Practically all are connected with highways. The brick plant has railroad connections with the New York & Long Branch Railroad. The remainder have no railroad connections but are near railroads. Adequacy of terminals.-The wharves are adequate to accommodate the present and prospective commerce. Should the channel of this creek be deepened, it is probable that a market boat would be oper- ated in the summer season to New York, in which event it would be necessary that the town wharf at Matawan be repaired and put in condition for use or that some other wharf adequate for the purpose and open to public use be prepared. Several years ago a market boat did operate to this point but was discontinued; now all the produce of the neighborhood is hauled to Keyport and shipped from there by water or by rail. Port administration, etc.—So far as is known, no movement has ever been made toward establishing uniform regulations or wharf charges to govern the commerce of this waterway. Neither has any general interest been shown toward improvement of terminal facili- ties, nor toward utilizing the navigation facilities afforded. The New Jersey Co. has been greatly interested in the securing of a deeper project. The State of New Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within the limits of that State. . . . - - SHOAL HARBOR AND COMPTON CREEK, N. J. Description of waterway.—Shoal Harbor is an indentation on the South shore of Raritan and Sandy Hook Bays, at their junction, about 5 miles southwest from Sandy Hook and about 19 miles distant from New York City; the harbor is not landlocked. Compton Creek is a small crooked stream rising on the west side of the Navesink High- lands and flowing about 6 miles in a generally northerly direction through salt meadows into Shoal Harbor. - . 1. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a channel connecting Compton Creek with Raritan Bay, 4 feet deep at mean low water. The mean range of tides is 4.5 feet. 2. Character and extent of commerce.—This harbor is used principally as a harbor of refuge by small boats engaged in the fishing and clam- ming industries. These boats, in large numbers, use the creek at night and in rough weather as a harbor. Their catch is partly un- loaded inside and shipped by rail and partly transferred to market boats from New York lying outside the harbor and partly carried 328 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. direct to the New York markets by the fishing boats themselves. A fish factory for converting menhaden into oil and fertilizer is located on the westerly side at the mouth of the creek and receives quantities of this fish and ships its products. There is also some coal, brick, tile, etc., brought in. The estimated commerce for 1918 amounted to 19,233 tons, valued at $1,624,041. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—The vessels consisted for the greater part of the small fishing boats above mentioned, which are gasoline propelled with a sloop or cathoat rig drawing from 3 to 4 feet and carrying from 2 to 4 tons. Boats of the same type drawing up to 8 feet and carrying up to 90 tons come into the fish factory. Three or four barges carrying about 300 tons and drawing around 8 feet come in carrying coal. - - 4. Terminals—General information.—There is one open-pile wharf for the fish factory and two small old crib bulkhead wharves. All are located on the west or south side of the harbor near the mouth of the creek. One of the crib wharves was formerly a wharf for a steamboat running to New York, but is not now in use, being in poor condition; the other wharf is used for a coal yard and for landing fish, etc. The wharves are all privately owned. They have good highway connec- tions and are about 1 mile distant from a railroad. The fish factory wharf is used for private purposes only. The other wharves can pos- sibly be leased and are open for public use at rates varying from 5 to 10 cents per ton. - Adequacy of terminals.-The wharves appear to be sufficient for the existing and immediately prospective demands of commerce that can use the present project depth of water. Should a project for deeper water be adopted in the future it is thought that a freight boat carry- ing farm produce and fish would be operated to the New York markets, in which case a public wharf would be necessary and should be pro- vided by interested parties. Port administration, etc.—Nothing, as far as is known, has ever been done toward establishing regulations for the harbor, regulating wharf- age costs, establishing a public wharf, nor toward creating an interest in such improvements. The State of New Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must pass on all projected plans for water-front development within the limits of that State. - SHREWSBURY RIVER, N. J. Description of waterway.—This river is a large tidal basin in the eastern part of New Jersey, consisting of two bays, each having an area of about 3 square miles, and known, respectively, as the North Branch (or Navesink River), which rises near Freehold, flows easterly, and is about 15 miles long, and the South Branch, about 7 to 8 miles long, which flows in a northerly direction; and a channel called the Main Stem unites the two branches near Normandie and extends northerly 2% miles into Sandy Hook Bay. 1. Eristing project.—The existing project calls for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water to Red Bank and Branchport on the North and South Branches, respectively. The mean range of tides at the mouth is 4.8 feet; at Highlands Bridge, 3.5 feet; at Sea Bright, 1.3 feet; and at Oceanic, 2.5 feet. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 329 2. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of the river is mainly in general merchandise, farm products, and building materials. There is also a large passenger traffic on the river. During 1918 the commerce was reported at 49,332 tons, valued at $4,208,612, and 186,000 passengers were carried. Large quantities of supplies were carried from New York to Red Bank and Branchport by water and thence taken by motor truck to Camp Vail, only a few miles distant. Considerable stores of uniforms, manufactured at Red Bank, were taken by water and delivered to the Quartermaster's Depot at Gov- ernors Island, New York. 3. Size and type of vessels used.—Practically all of the tonnage is carried by two steamboat companies operating between New York and Red Bank and Branchport, respectively. The New York & Long Branch Steamboat Co. operates to Branchport. It has four steamboats with registered tonnages varying from 286 to 585 tons and draft from 4% to 5% feet. The Merchants Steamboat Co. operates two steamers between Red Bank, N. J., and New York, which have registered tonnages of 253 and 407 tons and drafts of 5 and 7 feet, respectively. These boats run about nine months of the year and make daily trips during the open season. They carry both passengers and package freight and stop at all important intermediate points. Some coal is brought into the river by small schooners and barges. The schooners carry from 15 to 75 tons and draw between 5 and 7 º The barges carry about 200 tons and draw about 6 feet when oaded. 4. Terminals—General information.—The terminal facilities of the river consist in small uncovered wharves. The terminals and wharves used by the steamboat companies are provided with small warehouses for housing freight. There are 19 wharves located on this waterway, of which three are publicly owned and are open for public use. They are located at and owned by the Boroughs of Fair Haven, Rumson, and Red Bank, respectively. All these wharves have good highway connections. None have direct connections with railroads. Adequacy of terminals.-The terminal facilities appear adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. Sites are available at all localities along the river for public terminals. Port administration, etc.—So far as the records of this office show, no efforts have been made by interested parties to form regulations to govern the waterway nor to establish uniform wharfage charges, etc. No great interest has been shown toward the improvement of ter- minal facilities. The State of New Jersey has a board, known as the New Jersey State Board of Commerce and Navigation, which must #. on all projected plans for water-front development within the imits of that State. - - § WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

LAD UE, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. GENERAL DESCRIPTION. The Philadelphia district includes two important waterways, the Delaware and the Schuylkill Rivers. The principal port is Phila- delphia, located on the Delaware at the mouth of the Schuylkill, the city having a water frontage on both streams. The Delaware River rises in southeastern New York and empties into Delaware Bay, about 47 miles above the Delaware Capes. The head of steamboat navigation is at Trenton, 30 miles above Phila- delphia, and 131 miles from the ocean, but logging and rafting have been carried on for many miles farther up the stream. The width at the mouth of the river is 3% miles, and about 2,000 feet in Philadelphia Harbor. The river is tidal to Trenton, the mean tidal range being 4.4 feet at the Capes, 6 feet at Chester, Pa., 5.3 feet at Philadelphia, and 4.2 feet at Trenton. The existing projects for improvement provide for a channel 35 feet deep at mean low water from the ocean to Allegheny Avenue Philadelphia, and 12 feet deep at mean low water from Philadelphia to the upper railroad bridge at Trenton. The width from Philadelphia to the sea is to be 800 feet in straight reaches, increased to 1,200 feet at the turn at Bulkhead Bar, and to 1,000 feet at other turns, and along the Philadelphia waterfront from Greenwich Point to Allegheny Avenue. Along the water front of Camden, opposite Philadelphia, a depth of 30 feet is to be provided from Newton Creek to Kaighn Ferry Point, and 18 feet from Kaighn Ferry Point to Cooper Point. Between Philadelphia and Trenton the project width of channel is 200 feet. Present limiting depths are 30 feet from the ocean to Phila- delphia and somewhat less than 12 feet to Trenton. The least width of the ship channel below Philadelphia, is from 400 to 600 feet, and of the channel to Trenton about 140 feet. The Schuylkill River rises in Schuylkill County, Pa., and empties into the Delaware River at Philadelphia. The head of navigation is at the Fairmount Dam, in the city of Philadelphia, 8.6 miles above the mouth of the river. The river is tidal to the dam, the mean tidal range being 5.1 feet. The river has been improved under previous projects from its mouth to the Chestnut Street Bridge, a distance of 7.5 miles; but the present project contemplates improvement only to Cleveland Avenue, 6.5 miles above the mouth. The project provides for a depth of 35 feet at mean low water and a width of 400 feet from the Delaware River to Girard Point, a depth of 30 feet and a width of 400 feet to Twenty-ninth Street, a depth of 30 feet and a width of 300 431 432 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. feet to Passyunk Avenue, a depth of 26 feet and a width of 200 feet to Gibsons Point, and a depth of 22 feet and a width of 200 feet to Cleveland Avenue. Present limiting depths are 30 feet to Girard Point, 24 feet to Passyunk Avenue, and 14 to 16 feet to the upper limits of the improvement. PORT OF PHILADELPHIA, PA. The harbor of Philadelphia proper embraces the Delaware River from the Pennsylvania Railroad bridge in the upper part of the city to the mouth of the Schuylkill River, a distance of 12.5 miles, and the Schuylkill River from its mouth to the dam, 8.6 miles. The port of Philadelphia, however, includes the Delaware River from Marcus Hook to Trenton. Included in the port, besides Philadelphia, are Camden and Gloucester City, N. J., opposite Philadelphia, Marcus Hook and Chester, Pa., below Philadelphia, and Burlington, N. J., Bristol, Pa., and Trenton, N.J., above the city. The foreign commerce of the port consists mainly of the importa- tion of raw materials and the exportation of manufactured products. The coastwise commerce consists very largely of coal and coal prod- ucts, oil, lumber, phosphate rock, pulp-wood, and sugar. The leading articles of export are coal, petroleum products, iron and steel prod- ucts, machinery, cotton (both raw and manufactured), leather, grain, provisions, live stock, lumber, fertilizer, and tobacco. Imports in- clude fruit, petroleum, iron ore, pyrites, logwoods, manganese ore, china clay, nitrates, raw sugar, and other articles. The following tables taken from the annual report of the Department of Wharves, Docks, and Ferries, of the city .# Philadelphia, give information con- cerning the amount and character of the commerce and the number and types of vessels engaged. # : Memorandum of steamship lines entering the port of Philadelphia, where they dock, out and in bound service.

In all, there are 11 shipyards in the port, with an aggregate of 144. shipways and 100,000 employees, making Philadelphia the center of the shipbuild- ing industry of the United States. It is estimated that more than 30 per cent of the United States Shipping Board's new vessels will have been constructed in the shipyards of this port. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The city of Philadelphia has a navigable water front of about 37 miles, 20 of which are on the Dela- ware River, and 17 on both banks of the Schuylkill River. About half of this frontage is improved, the improvement consisting of some 440 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 214 wharves, piers, docks, etc., of all sizes and types for the accom- modation of all classes and sizes of vessels. Forty-four of these termi- nals, mostly improved bulkheads, are on the Schuylkill River distrib- uted along both banks of that stream. The main commercial activities of the port, however, are concentrated along the Delaware River front, between Greenwich Point and Allegheny Avenue, a distance of about 6% miles. The channel along this front is under improvement to a depth of 35 feet at mean low water for a width of 1,000 feet. About 144 terminals are distributed along this front, including piers of every type of construction, varying in length from a few feet up to 1,000 feet, and in pierhead depths from about 6 feet to 35 feet at mean low water. These piers have accommodations for all classes of vessels, with ample coaling and water facilities. The city owns 10 large modern piers in this stretch, 4 are owned by steamship companies, 59 by the 3 trunk-line railroads entering the city, and the remainder by various industrial and transportation companies and private individuals. Of the more important terminals, 15 are general cargo piers used in the foreign trade; 10 are general cargo piers for coastwise trade; 2 are general cargo piers for the river and bay trade; 12 are coal piers for foreign and coastwise vessels carrying or burning coal; 3 are ore piers; 1 is a grain pier; 6 are lumber piers, used by coastwise vessels; 13 are miscellaneous cargo and industrial piers; and 12 are railroad water front freight stations, used by car floats for harbor transfer. A large new pier owned by the city was leased during the war by the United States Quarter- master Corps and used for oversea shipments and transport service. The more important water terminals on the §§ River are the Pennsylvania Railroad's four piers at Girard Point and the Atlantic Refining Co.'s four wharves at Point Breeze. The Girard Point piers include one ore pier, one general cargo pier, and two grain piers, used in foreign and coastwise trade. The Atlantic Refining Co.'s wharves are used as terminals by its line of ocean going tankers. In addition to these terminals, port facilities include five anchorage areas of ample extent and depth, excellent channel lighting and marking, three ship repair yards (one at League Island) with five marine railways, six dry docks, and numerous ferry slips. Transfer facilities include water, rail and highway carriers. A considerable amount of the harbor transfer work is accomplished by means of car floats. For rail transfer there are available the lines of the three railroads and that of the Philadelphia Belt Line Railroad, by means of which, rail connections with any of the three regular lines may be established at any pier served by it. This Belt Line Railroad, however, is limited in extent and has no operating force except a director, and no rolling stock. It is a quasi-public corporation, owning a franchise and about 2.37 miles o . in three separate sections. . The various railroads shift their own cars over it and pay- ment for its use is determined by dividing the maintenance expenses of the road among the three regular railroads according to the amount of traffic each hauls over it. Any private turnout can procure cars of any one of the regular railroads by applying to the director of the Belt Line Railroad. - In the matter of highway transfers, the city is well supplied, prac- tically every terminal having paved street connections. A paved marginal avenue 150 feet wide extends along the Delaware front for WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 441 about 8 miles, and is contiguous to the piers for about one-fourth of this distance in the busiest section of the water front. Adequacy.—These terminals are more than adequate for the present commerce. It is estimated that 50 per cent more business could be handled without taxing the facilities. However, there is a deficiency in ship-repair facilities at the port, Besides the drydocks and repair facilities at the navy yard, which are not ordinarily available for privately owned vessels, there is but one yard with drydock capable of handling large ships. There are, however, several smaller yards with marine railways or small floating docks, capable of handling river steamers and small vessels up to about 2,500 tons displacement. Owing to the deficiency in repair facilities, it not infrequently be- comes necessary to send vessels to another port for repairs. A movement has been on foot for some time to procure from the United States Shipping Board the financing of two additional dry docks at this port. R. definite, however, has been accomplished as yet. Port administration.—The administration of Philadelphia's water facilities is intrusted to two bodies, one a State board and one a mu- nicipal department. The State board of commissioners of naviga- tion consists of five members, three appointed by the mayor of Phila- delphia, two elected by the city councils of Chester and Bristol, Pa. The board has general control over all that portion of the port of Philadelphia which is in the State of Pennsylvania. Within the limits of the city of Philadelphia it confines its activities to that por- tion of the river beyond pierhead lines, establishing rules and regula- tions as to the use of the channel and anchorages, speed, lights, etc. That portion of the water front of the city between the bulkhead and ierhead lines is under the control of the city department of wharves, #. and ferries, the director of which is ex-officio president of the board of commissioners of navigation above mentioned. This department has direct control of all municipal piers and terminals, the city's floating plant, dredging operations, etc., and supervisory control over all terminals. The director is nominated and appointed by the mayor by and with the consent of the select council, for a term .# four years, or during good behavior, and is eligible for reappoint- ment. He has extensive administrative powers, including in part the appointment of his assistants and the fixing of their salaries; making surveys and soundings; establishing bulkhead and pierhead lines and distance between piers, subject to the regulations of the United States Government; adopting and promulgating regulations for the construction, alteration, and repair of water terminals, and enforcing these regulations; issuing licenses and permits; fixing wharfage, craneage, and dockage rates, and acting as purchasing agent for the city in the procurement of water-front #. etc. The assistants appointed by him include an assistant director, a secretary, not to .. five dock masters, and as many other officers, clerks, and employees as he may deem necessary. Port charges.—Owing to the fact that a large part of the water- borne commerce of Philadelphia can be transferred directly between ship and railroad cars without lighterage, the port charges are com- paratively low. Pilotage rates are fixed by the laws of Pennsylvania, and are not excessive. Wharfage rates for city owned piers are fixed by the director of the department of wharves, docks, and ferries, and 442 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. at present amount to 1 cent per net registered ton per day. Wharfage at privately owned piers is a matter for agreement between interested parties, but is substantially the same as that charged at city piers. Storage is charged on a monthly basis and varies with materials and bulk. Other charges, such as towage, lighterage, and switching, are believed to correspond closely with those of other ports, while steve- dore rates are the same all along the seaboard. Public ownership or control of water front.—The city owns about 3 miles of water front, on which are 31 terminals of various types. In 1918 the gross revenue from these terminals amounted to $228,910.08. The United States at League Island owns a frontage of about 4.5 miles. The rest of the frontage is owned by private individuals or corporations. However, the city may expand its holdings at any time, either by purchase or expropriation. The city has supervisory control over the whole water front, in that plans for alterations, improvements, or new structures must receive its approval, and any lººp. use of terminals or bulkheads which would constitute a public nuisance is subject to abatement by the city. The laws of Pennsylvania declare that no water terminal is a strictly private utility and require that any wharf or pier shall receive any ship demanding a berth, provided that, space is available and that a reasonable compensation is tendered. In practice, however, certain of the piers, both those publicly and those privately owned, are open to all water carriers on equal terms, while others are used only by the owners or lessees or by shippers doing business with them. General interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities.— Interest in harbor improvements is not so widespread as it might be, and in spite of the educational campaign carried on by various city organizations, such as the department of wharves, docks, and ferries; the board of commissioners of navigation; and the joint executive com- mittee on the improvement of the harbor of Philadelphia and the Dela- ware River, whose membership includes representatives of the board of trade, chamber of commerce, maritime exchange, etc., the merchants of the city as a whole seem slow to take advantage of the facilities now gººd many of them preferring to make their shipments through New OTK. - Efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities now available.—The organizations named above are making every effort to stimulate the use of existing facilities and are meeting with moderate success. The city is constantly building new piers, and the present pier owners generally maintain sufficient depths at their piers to accommodate any robable commerce. The city appropriated in 1918 about $13,000,000 or new piers, alterations, and maintenance, of which $51,660 was ex- pended on dredging, a total of 356,564 cubic yards being removed from piers, basins, etc. The city is striving now to interest the railroads and steamship lines in a project for a better coordination of these two services. This will be iº at greater length in a succeeding paragraph. Existing or desirable rail and water connections.—In addition to the 59 piers owned by the railroads, 66 piers have private turn outs con- nected with one or more of the railroads or the Belt Line Railroad, thus permitting direct interchange of cargoes between ships and rail- road cars at 125 of the 214 terminals. Several other plants owning piers have railroad connections which do not extend to the piers. water TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 443 Practically all piers served by important ship lines have direct rail connections, and lighterage is therefore reduced to a minimum. Reference to the preceding tables, however, will show that a large É. of these lines make use of the railroad-owned piers, which urnish free wharfage to vessels whose cargoes are moved over the railroad which owns the pier. Such an arrangement tends to dis- courage the building of municipal piers except for lease, as an open pier could not compete with the free railroad piers. It also tends to increase the time of ships in port, since a vessel must go from pier to pier to discharge a miscellaneous cargo and take on a new one. To mitigate these evils the city has a plan for a joint rail-and-water terminal which will depend for its success upon cooperation between the city, the merchants, the railroad companies, and the ship lines. In brief, the city proposes to build eight i. modern piers on the south Delaware front, throwing them open to public carriers on equal terms. The railroads are to abandon, competition at their piers, sending all cars with goods for water shipment to a freight-classifica- tion yard in the general vicinity of these new piers. As ships enter the port they will be assigned to the piers, cars of the proper roads F. for their unloading, and loaded cars of any road placed for the oading. Such an arrangement would insure the least possible delay in loading and unloading the ships, thus decreasing port charges and overhead; would tend to increase the number of vessels using the port by making more certain a full cargo out; would save the rail- roads the expense of upkeep of numerous private piers and eliminate excessive transfer of freight from one line to another; and finally would insure shippers against unnecessary delay in transshipment, paving the way for interchange of traffic between rail and water carriers with through rates for combined shipments. . If this propo- sition can be put through, it will undoubtedly result in increased business for the port, increased efficiency in handling that business, and a substantial saving to the shippers of the United States generally. Efficiency of the port as a whole.—In the matter of coaling, no criticism of the port can reasonably be made. There are numerous coaling piers along the river fronts, notably at Greenwich Point and at Port Richmond. Facilities include trestles and coal chutes, one car dumper, and one McMyler unloader, and are more than ample for present conditions of traffic. Unit costs of operation are not available. Repair facilities, on the other hand, are much below the needs of traffic and existing yards work to capacity throughout the year. As stated heretofore, additional dry docks are urgently needed. So far as they go, the repair facilities of the port are effi- ciently handled and good work is done, though there is a lack of competition. Storage facilities are generally ample except in the case of grain. Only two grain elevators of any size exist, with a total capacity of 3,725,000 bushels. An effort is being made to induce the #. hia & Reading Railway Co. to build a new 5,000,000-bushel elevator, ut this has not as yet been successful. No suggestions are offered as to betterment of conditions other than those heretofore mentioned as already underway. 444 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The following summary of the water-terminal facilities was pre- pared by the Department of Wharves, Docks, and Ferries of the city of Philadelphia: PORT AND TERMINAL FACILITIES AT PHILADELPHIA. 1.

The rail- road siding accommodation will take care of three cars at one time, the siding running right into the premises. Charles J. Webb & Co.'s warehouse: Situated at Delaware Avenue and Walnut Street. Consists of nine floors above ground, and about 40,000 square feet on each floor, or a total floor space of 360,000 feet. 13. Free time on imports.—Cargo unloaded from vessels is allowed a certain number of lay days—two to six—to be removed from wharf structures, free of charge. Should the commodities remain on the pier in excess of lay days allowed, a storage rate is imposed, or the goods are stored in public warehouses at the owner’s risk and expense. 14. Pilotage.—For river or channel, either inward or outward bound, vessels under 12 feet draft, $4 per foot; over 12 feet draft, $5 per foot. 15. Port charges.—The State of Pennsylvania and the city of Philadelphia assess no charge against a ship or cargo entering the port. 16. Wharfage or docking charges.—These charges in this harbor are very small and range from 1 cent to 2 cents a net registered ton of the vessel docking, per day of 24 hours. No charge is made against the cargo of the ship for passage over the wharf, provided it is removed within the number of lay days allowed. 17. Ownership of the water front.—Philadelphia has a waterfront of 34 miles; 20 miles along the Delaware River and 14 miles along the Schuylkill River. The ownership of the Delaware River is divided as follows: - Per cent.

The city of Philadelphia owns eight large piers for overseas shipment, with three more under construction, and has available at this time $6,000,000 for other port improvements. The government of the port is vested in the Federal Government, the State of Pennsylvania and the city of Philadelphia. The duties of the Federal Government in this port are the same as in all other United States ports, namely, to see that the laws of the United States Government are enforced, and customs duties collected. The State of Pennsylvania, through the board of commissioners of navigation, has charge of the river from the pierhead line to the low-water line; locates anchorage and keeps a list of arrivals and clearances of vessels, and has charge of the policing of the harbor; and controls and regulates the State pilots. The city of Philadelphia, through the Department of Wharves, Docks and Ferries, has charge of the construction and operation of municipal piers and other harbor facilities, 446 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. and the general Supervision of all water-front activities of either a public or private nature, and the director thereof has power to dock a vessel at any pier within the limits of the city of Philadelphia that is at the time not being used to its full capacity. 18. Bunkering—Coal.–Pennsylvania, being the largest coal-producing State in the Union, a large percentage of the tidewater shipments of which is shipped via the port of Philadelphia, bunkering coal can be obtained at all times at prices ranging from $6.25 to $6.50 a ton of 2,240 pounds, in lots of 200 tons and over, trimmed in ship bunkers within the harbor limits. Municipal piers, city of Philadelphia.-The city of Philadelphia owns 28 water terminals, of which 10 are large modern structures with modern freight handling equipment. The remainder are of less impor- tance and cheaper construction, including 4 ferry slips, 6 small piers leased to manufacturing concerns, etc., 2 recreation piers, 4 piers of the bureau of water, 1 of the house of correction, and 1 pier not used. These piers are mostly of open pile or timber crib construction, in from fair to good condition. They are small piers with little depth, have no mechanical appliances, and only the two recreation piers are open to the public. The 10 large piers are Nos. 4, 9, 10, 11, and 19 north, and 5, 16, 38, 40, and 78 south. All are leased to various transportation or other business concerns. They are, how- ever, open to public carriers on payment of wharfage whenever there is sufficient room at the piers not in use by the lessees, and the city retains the right to dock any vessel there in case of need. All of these piers except No. 78 south have an open pile substructure, four of them having concrete cross walls or beams. No. 78 has a solid fill substructure behind concrete walls. No. 11 north has a timber super- structure, one story high, and Nos. 10 north and 5 and 19 south have two story steel frame superstructures. All the rest have steel and concrete superstructures two stories high, except in the case of Nos. 9 north and 16 south, whose superstructures are but one story high. They vary in length from 530 to 900 feet and in width from 59 to 250 feet, with a total berthing length of 13,003 feet. The mean low water depths at pierheads vary from 30 to 35 feet and alongside, from 15 to 32 feet. The mechanical appliances include pole derricks, cargo hoists, electric winches, package and freight elevators, cargo chutes, electric trucks, etc. Locations of piers and the purposes for which used are as follows: North piers: No. 4, foot of Arch Street, leased to six river transportation companies; No. 9, foot of Cherry Street, leased to river transportation company; No. 10, foot of Race Street, leased to two importing companies; No. 11, foot of Spring Street, leased to Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co.; No. 19, between Vine and Callowhill Streets, leased to foreign steamer line, fourth naval district, United States, and sugar refining company. South piers: No. 5, foot of Chestnut Street, leased to three river transportation com- panies; No. 16, foot of Dock Street, leased to foreign steamship line; No. 38, foot of Queen Street, leased to foreign steamship line; No. 40, foot of Christian Street, leased to foreign steamship line and Pennsylvania Railroad Co.: No. 78, foot of McKean Street, leased to United States Grain Corporation and foreign trade. All piers, except Nos. 4 and 11 north and 5 south, have direct physical connections with one or more of the three trunk line rail- roads entering Philadelphia, or with the Belt Line Railroad. No interchange of traffic takes place. All the piers have good highway connections with the city street system, most of them being located On Delaware Avenue, a marginal street if 0 feet wide. Philadelphia (6 Reading Railway torminal, Port Richmond, Phila- dolphia, Pa.-In this locality the Philadelphia & Reading Railway has 23 piers, of which 1 is a grain pier, 1 an ore pier, 1 a combination g WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 447 ore and coal pier, 2 are construction material piers, 4 are storage and repair piers, 6 are general cargo piers, and 8 are coal piers. Two are of open pile, timber crib and concrete construction, 2 of pile and concrete, 1 of pile 11 of timber crib, and 7 of timber crib with earth fill. The grain pier is almost covered by a 1 500,000-bushel brick and timber grain elevator. Piers A, C, and D, general cargo piers, used in foreign trade, are covered by timber and galvanized-iron sheds. These piers vary in length from 185 to 774 feet, with a total berthing space of 21,614 feet. The méan low-water depths at pier- heads vary from 6 to 33 feet, with an average of 17 feet, 10 piers having 20 feet or more. All coal piers are equipped with trestles and coal chutes for loading coal on vessels. The ore pier is equipped with two McMyler ore unloaders electrically driven, with a capacity of 300 to 500 tons per hour, and witn two steam derricks Two piers used for shipping construction material for the Philadelphia & Reading Rail- way are equipped with trestles The four storage and repair piers are used in connection with the Philadelphia & Reading Railway Co.'s floating plant, and have no special equipment. The grain pier is equipped with grain chutes, unloaders, dryers, etc. . Three of the general-cargo piers have special equipment, consisting of one traveling chain hoist, steam driven, one full arc revolving crane, electric, of 50-ton capacity, two electric locomotive cranes capacity 5% tons each, and several steam derricks. Practically all the piers are open to vessels free of charge, provided the cargoes are moved in connec- tion with the Philadelphia & Reading Railway. The piers are more than adequate for existing traffic, and it is estimated that the existing facilities could handle three times the present tonnage. Over the coal piers, 3,670,000 tons are handled annually, while the grain pier ships 288,000 tons yearly. The ore piers handle 785,000 tons and the general-cargo piers 1,545,000 tons in both foreign and domestic trade. About 11,000 tons of construction materials are shipped annnally for the use of the Philadelphia & Reading Railway. This commerce is handled in steamers, sailing vessels, barges, canal boats, and car floats. Four transatlantic freight lines dock regularly at this terminal, which has accommodations for 23 ocean-going vessels and 15 harbor lighters simultaneously. At Piers A, B, C, and D, a total storehouse space of 358,496 square feet is available. Costs of handling cargoes are as follows: Coal. 14.2 cents per ton; heavy machinery, sand, and gravel, 26.5 cents per ton; grain, 18.5 cents per ton. Four of these piers have no rail connections. All the rest have at least one track running on the piers. Direct interchange of cargoes between ships and cars is the rule, but through rates on merchandise shipped partly by rail and partly by water are not given. All piers have good highway connec- tions. |William Cramp dº Sons Ship and Engine Building Co., Philadelphia, Pa.—This plant occupies a frontage of about three-eighths of a mile immediately below the Port Richmond Terminal, and has 10 piers, Nos. 77–80, 82–87, north, all of timber crib construction, in good con- dition. A total dockage length of 4,815 feet is available with mean low-water depths at pierheads of from 10 to 32 feet, with an average depth of 17 feet. Mechanical appliances include 4 steam traveling cranes; 2 steam derricks; 1 electric winch; 2 overhead traveling cranes, steam; 3 revolving electric cranes; one 10-ton, one 20-ton, and one 75-ton. None of these piers are open to public use and no com- merce passes over them. They are adequate for their purpose. On 448 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the eight shipways of this company are built all types of vessels, in- cluding tugs, cargo ships, tankers, passenger ships, torpedo-boat destroyers, and battleships. In 1918 10 destroyers and 6 other ves- sels were completed. All piers except 78, 83, and 84 have direct º connection with the Pennsylvania Railroad, and all piers ave good highway connections. Kensington, Ship Yard, Philadelphia, Pa.—The Kensington Shi Yard is a branch of the William Cramp & Sons Ship and Engine b. ing Co., and has four piers between Palmer Street and Montgomery Avenue. These piers are Nos. 62, 63, 64, and 65, north, and are of timber crib, earth fill, or open-pile construction, all in good condition. There is a total dockage length of 1,899 feet, not including the dry dock, with pierhead depths of from 6 to 30 feet at mean low water. All the piers are equipped with steam derricks and No. 65 has a shear legs in addition. The piers are used only in connection with the dry- dock and ship-repair yard, and no commerce passes over them. Each pier is suitable to the work, but the plant as a whole is too small for the business that comes to it, and is so located that there is no oppor- tunity for expansion. In addition to the four piers there is a medium- sized dry dock (about 450 feet long) of the graving type, and two marine railways which can handle boats up to 2,000 tons. All piers have good highway connections, but only No. 65 has direct rail con- nections; this by means of a spur of the Pennsylvania Railroad. No interchange of traffic takes place. Greenwich Point Terminal, Philadelphia, Pa.—Piers Nos. 106, 107, 108, 109, 111, and 1.12: The Pennsylvania Railroad owns six piers between Pollock Street and Pattison Avenue, all in good condition. Of these two are timber crib structures, one is pile and concrete, two are open pile, and one is timber crib with earth fill and concrete walls. All except one of these piers have timber trestle superstructures, No. 112, south, having no superstructure. The piers vary in length from 482 to 735 feet and in width from 60 to 220 feet, with a total berthing space of 7,276 feet, and mean low-water depths of 17 to 30 feet, the average being 22 feet. Mechanical appliances include five timber trestles on the coal piers, a steam derrick on Pier No. 112, and a McMyler car dumper with a capacity of 3,000 tons per hour on Pier No. 108. Pier No. 106 is open, free of charge, to all water carriers shipping over the Pennsylvania Railroad. Pier No. 112 is open to all water carriers on payment of wharfage. The other piers are open free of charge to all water carriers desiring coal. The piers are adequate for existing traffic conditions, and a 50 per cent increase in business could be handled without difficulty. An aggregate of 324,000 tons passes over Pier No. 106 annually, consisting chiefly of coal, lumber, ties, fertilizer, magnesite, and general merchandise, while No. 112 handles yearly about 55,000 tons of ties, lumber, pulp wood, cord wood, and paving blocks. The rest of the piers handle coal only. Occasionally the yearly coal tonnage runs up to 3,000,000, but does not ordinarily exceed 2,000,000. The cost of transferring coal from car to vessels averages about 7 cents per ton. All piers have direct physical connection with the Pennsylvania, Railroad, and through shipments may be made over any line if switching charges are paid to the Pennsylvania Railroad. Interchange of traffic is occasionally practiced. Good roadways lead from every pier. - WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 449 League Island Navy Yard.—This yard is located on an island at the lower end of Philadelphia, separated from the mainland by a narrow strip of water known as the back channel. There are 12 piers here, 4 of which are located in that portion of the back channel called the Reserve Basin. The piers are generally of open pile or timber crib construction with concrete walls and earth fill, and all are in good condition. They vary in length from 229 to 1,000 feet, and in width from 60 to 238 feet, with a total berthing space of 13,055 feet. The mean low-water depth at pierheads varies from 9 to 35 feet, with an average depth of º 24 feet, seven of the piers having 25 feet or more. Mechanical appliances include one 20-ton jib crane—not used; one 100-ton shear legs; one 40-ton crane, 20-foot gauge, steam op- erated; one 350-ton electrically driven hammerhead crane, now being installed; and four 5-ton hand-operated, stiff-legged derricks. The piers are owned by the United States and are adequate for the present needs. Both original building of naval vessels and repair work are done in the yard, and there are two dry docks with a third under con- struction. These piers are not open to public use. All piers are con- nected with the Pennsylvania Railroad by spur lines belonging to the United States. A good roadway leads from each pier. Girard Point Terminal, Schuylkill River.—The Pennsylvania Rail- road owns four piers at this point, located a short distance above the mouth of the Schuylkill River on the north shore. All have pile and concrete or stone substructures in good condition. Pier No. 1 is an ore pier, and is equipped with two McMyler steam ore unloaders with a capacity of 200 tons per hour each. . These unloaders run on a wide- gage truck, between the rails of which are two ordinary railroad tracks. Cars placed beneath the unloader's hopper are filled through chutes by gravity. The hopper is filled by means of a bucket, which lifts the ore from the ship's hold and is then conveyed along a hori- zontal track to the hopper. The pier is 1,050 feet long and 50 feet wide with a mean low-water 㺠of 28 feet alongside. The east side of the pier is not available for dockage. , Pier No. 3 is a grain pier, used in connection with the Pennsylvania Railroad's 2,225,000- bushel steel and concrete grain elevator. A steel trestle way carrying grain conveyor and loading chutes covers the entire pier. The con- veyor has a loading capacity of 60,000 bushels per hour over four con- veyor belts, which can deliver to either side of the pier. Two floating elevators with transfer capacity of 15,000 bushels per hour and fiv grain barges are operated in connection with this elevator, and the track layout in the elevator yard will accommodate 1,400 cars. Three ocean-going vessels can be loaded simultaneously, as there is an available berthing space of 380 feet on the west side of the pier and of 860 feet on the east side, with a mean low-water depth of 28 feet alongside. Pier No. 2, a general cargo pier for foreign and coastwise trade, is 900 feet long on the west side, 950 feet long on the east side, and 255 feet wide, with a mean low-water depth of 28 feet alongside. On this pier are two warehouses of wood and corrugated iron, with a total floor space of 67,000 square feet. Pier No. 4, used mostly as a storage yard by the Pennsylvania Railroad, has a length of 400 feet on the west, 375 feet on the east, and a width of 100 feet. Mean low- water depths are 26 feet, 24 feet, and 28 feet, respectively. There are no mechanical applicances on these two piers. All four piers are 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—29 450 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. open only to ocean-going steamers used in foreign and coastwise trade and are, in effect, private piers. Under present conditions they are adequate and suitable. Exports consist almost entirely of grain, of which about 1,250,000 tons are shipped annually. Imports consist principally of iron ore and chira clay, about 200,000 tons being received each year. In this trade vessels of all sizes up to 30-foot draft are used. The cost of transferring grain from cars to vessels is about 8 cents per ton, while the cost of unloading ore is about 22 cents per ton. The Pennsylvania Railroad has spur tracks extending the full length of all these piers, except No. 3; two on No. 1; 11 on No. 2, and 3 on No. 4. Six spur tracks lead to the elevator, which is at the inner end of pier No. 3. Interchange of traffic is practiced over Piers Nos. 1 and 2. Good highways lead from all piers. Wharves of Alan ic Refining Co. on Schuylkill River.—The Atlantic Refining Co. owns three large wharves on the Schuylkill River in the vicinity of Passyunk Avenue, on both sides of the river, and has another wharf in process of construction in the same vicinity. These wharves are of pile and timber deck construction with either concrete or earth walls and earth fill, and are parallel to the channel. The general condition is good, with sections in poor repair, however. There is a total berthing space of 5,010 feet with mean low-water depths varying from 3 or 4 feet at the uncompleted wharf to 26 and 30 feet at the others. The mechanical appliances of these wharves include oil pumps and pipe lines, one 5-ton steam-operated, stiff- legged derrick; one 2-ton steam, mast, and gaſt; and two barrel conveyors with a loading capacity of 240 barrels per hour. The wharves are not open to the public generally, but are used solely in connection with the Atlantic Refining Co.'s large business in crude and refined oils, for which they are considered suitable and adequate. The articles handled at these wharves include: As imports, Mexican crude oil and other petroleum products; as exports, fuel oil, gasoline, Jubricating oils, and waxes. T. amount of this traffic is not accessi- ble but is known to be very large. In addition, coal for operating purposes is received by water, and the uncompleted wharf is designed to handle this commodity. The vessels used in this traffic are barges, tugs, and steamers, some of the latter being 15,000-ton ships with a draft of 28 feet. Two warehouses are available; one of brick, with a floor space of 54,800 square feet, and one of concrete, with a floor º: of 40,600 square feet. That portion of the plant on the west shore of the Schuylkill River has no rail connections, but the two completed wharves on the east shore have *}. lines, owned by the company, connecting with the Pennsylvania Railroad and Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. No interchange of traffic is practiced. The uncompleted wharf will have a spur connection to the Pennsylvania Railroad and a highway leading to the city street system. The other wharves also have good highway connections. CAMDEN AND GLOUCESTER CITY, N. J. Terminal facilities.—These municipalities with a combined water frontage of about 10 miles are situated directly opposite Philadelphia on the east bank of the Delaware River. There are in all some 80 piers, docks, and wharves, most of which are owned and used by concerns which are industrial rather than commercial in character. H.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 451 These terminals are of many types of construction, and furnish wharfage for all sizes of vessels up to 33 feet draft, though the average depth at piers does not exceed 10 feet. Among the more important pier owners are four shipbuilding corporations, four ship-repair yards, the city of Camden, and the city of Gloucester, the Pennsylvania. Railroad and the Philadelphia & Reading Railway. . The Pennsyl- vania Railroad owns 11 terminals, and the Philadelphia & Reading Railway 7, the ship-repair yards 12, the shipbuilding yards 17, the city of Camden 4, and the city of Gloucester 1. The remainder are owned by private firms, including coke, dredging, and lumber com— panies, etc. Seven piers in all are open to public use, two of these free of charge. Mechanical appliances are not extensively used, except in the shipyards. Transfer facilities.—These include car float ferries, railroads, and trucks. All piers have good highway connections, and about 42 per cent of the terminals have rail connections with one or both of the two railroads entering the territory, the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Philadelphia & Reading Railway. A belt-line road owned by the Pennsylvania Railroad parallels the water front for about 1 mile. Adequacy.—Under present conditions of traffic, the existing facilities are adequate, except in the matter of ship-repair yards and dry docks. - Port administration.—A board of harbor commissioners appointed by the mayor has supervision and control over the water front at Camden. The street committee of the city council exercises these functions for Gloucester City, though it pays little attention to any but the city-owned property. - Pop! ..". of the information given under this heading with regard to Philadelphia is true also of Camden, as the charges are approximately the same throughout. Wharfage is at the rate of $2 per day or fraction thereof. Use of wharf facilities is charged for in addition, as shown in the following table, the same rate being charged for discharging or for loading: - Cents Sand, per cubic yard-------------------------------------------------------. 3 Stone, per ton -------------------------------------------------------------- 2 Coal, per ton----------------------------------------------------------------- 2 Brick, per 1,000------------------------------------------------- - - - - - - - - - - - - 4.

Iron, per ton----------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Cinders or ashes, per cubic yard------------------------------------------. . . . 2 At Gloucester's one city wharf, a flat wharfage rate of $1 per day or fraction thereof is charged, with lesser rates for an extended stay. Public ownership, or control of waterfront.—The city of Camden owns nine sites for water terminals, five of which are leased to industrial concerns, the rest being occupied by city piers or unused. The board of harbor commissioners has control of these sites and super- visory control of the whole front. Gloucester owns two pieces of water-front property, on one of which there is a city wharf. General interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities.— Very little interest is manifested in this matter except by the firms actually owning or using water front property. 452 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities now available.—In general only the shipyards make any attempt to utilize the full channel depths. Water-front owners maintain only sufficient depths to accommodate the vessels using their facilities, and these do not ordinarily exceed 10 feet. Camden is pushing a plan for the con- struction of a $500,000 marine warehouse and water terminal. Gloucester has no improvement project whatever underway or under consideration. Eristing or desirable rail and water connections.—About 34 of the 81 terminals have direct physical connection with one or both of the two railroads, and, generally speaking, shipments may be made over either line at through rates after payment of switching charges in cases where the pier spur does not belong to the railroad over which shipment is to be made. Interchange of traffic is not exten- sively practiced. Efficiency of the port as a whole.—All the general service facilities of Philadelphia are easily accessible to Camden and Gloucester, thus making a separate discussion of efficiency unnecessary. As stated heretofore, the ports of Camden and Gloucester are used industrially rather than commercially, only a few regular ship lines stopping there. The question of efficiency of the individual terminals, therefore, is of interest mainly to their owners. New York Shipbuilding Corporation, Camden, N. J.-This corpora- tion owns eight piers and wharves and 28 shipways between Bulson and Sherman Streets, at the lower end of the Camden water front. In general, the piers are of pile construction, with concrete walls and earth fill, and all are in good condition. There is a total berthing space of 7,286 feet, and the mean low water depth varies from 12 feet . to 33 feet, the average being about 26 feet. The mechanical appli- ances include two electrically operated gantry cranes, one of 45 tons capacity and one of 35 tons. The piers are not open to public use. They are adequate for the present commerce. The vessels constructed by this corporation are colliers, oil tankers, transports, destroyers, battleships, and passenger ships of 4,000 to 32,000 tons dead weight tonnage. In 1918 16 vessels were completed. The New York Ship- building Corporation owns spurs leading from all the piers to both local railroads, the Pennsylvania Railroad and Philadelphia & Reading Railway, but no interchange of traffic takes place. Private roadways connect all piers with the Camden street system. Camden Coke Co.'s piers Nos. 36, 37, and 38, Camden, N. J.-The Camden Coke Co. owns three piers, situated between Walnut Street and Kaighn Avenue, Camden, N. J. Only two of these, Nos. 36 and 37, are in good condition, the other, No. 38, having been abandoned as a water terminal. Pier No. 36 is a timber crib, earth filled struc- ture, partly covered by a coke bunker and a pump house. . It has a total berthing space of 551 feet with a pierhead mean low, water depth of 20 feet, and 10 to 20 feet alongside. A chute carries the . from the bunker to 600-ton barges at the rate of about 600 ons a day. Pier No. 37, of open pile and timber construction, is a reserve pier, 198 feet long by 58 feet wide, with a pierhead mean low water depth of 11 feet, and a side depth of 5 to 11 feet This pier is equipped with a 15-ton steam locomotive crane, running on an overhead trestle and railway. The piers are adequate to the º: present needs, and neither of them is open to public use. About 340,000 tons of WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 453 coal, coke, and coal tars passes over these piers annually, the coal being unloaded by means of a gravity boom coal hoist. Only Pier No. 36 has direct rail connection with all local railroads, a spur line running to the beltline of the Pennsylvania and Philadelphia & Reading railroa is on Delaware Avenue. Shipments may be made over either line as best suits the needs of the company. There is no interchange of traffic. A good highway also leads from this pier, but does not reach Nos. 37 and 38. Victor Talking Machine Co.'s wharf, Pier No. 31, Camden, N. J.- This wharf is located at the foot of Cooper Street, south side, and is used solely by the owners, for the unloading of coal from barges. It is an open pile structure, surmounted by a concrete wall with earth fill and affords a total berthing space of 556 feet, with an average mean low water depth of 11 feet. On the inner end, adjoining Cooper Street, is a powerhouse. The wharf is equipped with a 10-ton, electrically operated, locomotive crane, for the handling of coal, and is considered adequate for the present needs of the company. About 25,000 tons of coal is received annually at this pier in 300-ton barges. Direct physical connection with the Pennsylvania Railroad is ob- tained by a spur track belonging to the Victor Talking Machine Co., and rail shipments are made principally over this road. No inter- change of traffic takes place at this wharf. A good highway leads from the wharf to the city streets. Pier No. 46, Camden, N. J.-Pier No. 46, at the foot of Winslow Street, is an open pile and timber structure, 400 feet long on the upper side, 178 feet on the lower side, and 30 feet wide, with a mean low water depth of 25 feet at the pierhead and 23 to 25 feet on the upper side. Boats can not use the lower side of the pier. The pier is equipped with a double drum steam hoisting engine, a 1-ton steam mast and gaff, and a narrow-gage track. The pier is used only by its owner, the Southwark Manufacturing Co., and handles some 30,000 tons of raw material (mostly chalk) annually; 600-ton barges are used in this traffic. The pier is adequate under existing condi- tions. There is no direct rail connection, but a good road leads from the pier to the city street system. > Pier No. 47, Camden, N. J.-Pier No. 47, between Winslow and Jefferson Streets, is an open pile, timber deck structure, with a con- crete wall and earth fill, all in good condition. The pier is 227 feet wide and 205 feet long, with a mean low water depth of 13 feet, and is equipped with one 1-ton and one 2-ton electrically driven mast and gaff. It is owned by the Armstrong Cork Co., the exclusive user, and it is adequate for its needs for some time to come. Some 12,000 tons of cork is received annually in barges and schooners and manu- factured into commercial cork and insulation cork, which are shipped by rail. A spur of the Philadelphia & Reading Railway extends to the pier and cars are shifted by the railroad as required. There is no interchange of traffic. A good highway leads from the pier. Pier No. 48, Camden, N. J.-Pier No. 48, between Jefferson and Chelton Avenues, is of open pile and timber, surmounted by an earth fill behind a wall partly of concrete and partly of timber crib, all in good condition. The total available berthing space is 1,068 feet, with mean low water depths of 23 to 25 feet. The pier is equipped with one 15-ton steam locomotive crane, and is owned by the Mac- Andrews & Forbes Co., the exclusive user. It expects to extend the 454 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. pier to the new pierhead line shortly, as it is not large enough to handle the growing commerce. The company receives annually 65,000 tons of coal, 36,000 tons of licorice root, and 5,300 tons of dyewood, carried in barges and steamers, the latter having a draft of about 21 feet. Direct physical connection with the Philadelphia & Reading line is obtained by a privately owned spur, extending the length of the pier, but there is no interchange of traffic. A good highway leads from the pier. - TRENTON, N. J. Terminal facilities.—There are but three water terminals on a front of something over a mile in this locality; two of which are owned |by the city and one by a brewery. The most important of these is the new municipal dock at the foot of Ferry Street, at the extreme upper end of the 12-foot channel to Philadelphia. It is leased for the current year to a river transportation company which Operates a freight and passenger line between Trenton and Philadelphia and handles practically all the water-borne commerce of Trenton. Four steamers with a draft of about 10 feet and three self-propelling barges of 200 to 250 tons capacity carry this commerce, which amounts to about 60,000 tons annually of farm produce, general merchandise, and package freight. The other municipal pier is used for low class freight, such as sand and gravel, manure, etc. The brewery's pier is used mostly in receiving coal for the plant, about 8,000 tons being handled here annually. At present no mechanical appliances are available at any of these piers, except the brewery's, which has a steam derrick and a coal trestle for small cars. A total dockage ºth of 1,557 feet is available with a mean low water depth of 12 eet. Transfer facilities.—None of the terminals at this port has railroad connections as yet. Good highways lead from each pier. Adequacy.—The existing terminals are adequate to meet the de- mands of river traffic under present conditions. Port administration.—The board of city commissioners is the harbor board of Trenton and has general control over the administration of the port. Under this board is a harbor master, appointed under civil service regulations. He is charged with the administration of regulations for the use of public docks, collection of port charges, etc. Port charges.—No definite schedule has been agreed upon as yet, but the harbor board has announced that all charges shall be as low as possible in order to encourage use of water facilities. Public ownership or control of water front-The city owns about 65 per cent of the water front on the navigable channel. General interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities.—A considerable degree of interest has been shown in the new municipal terminal, and an influential element of the population is urging further improvement of the channel between Philadelphia and Trenton. Plans for additional terminal development, including a belt line rail- road, all predicated upon such further improvement of the river, have already been worked out, and it is believed that the city will stand ready to construct additional terminals to meet the requirements as they develop. Efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities available.—Prior to this summer the navigable channel terminated near the lower limit of WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 455 Trenton, and the city wharf at this point was not adequate nor con- venient. Under these circumstances the commerce by water was relatively small. With the extension of the channel to Ferry Street the construction and opening of the new municipal dock, and the establishment of regular daily boat service between the new dock and Philadelphia, shipments by water have increased materially. The greater part of the present shipments in and out of Trenton, however, is handled by rail, which is more practicable, under present condi- tions, than water transportation, for the great bulk of the business. Existing or desirable rail and water commections.—There are no rail and water connections at present. Efforts are being made to obtain the construction of a spur from the Pennsylvania Railroad to the new municipal dock. Municipal terminal.—The municipal terminal at the foot of Ferry Street was formally opened for business on April 29, 1919, and is in excellent condition. The terminal consists of a basin excavated into the river bank, with an open wharf on the downstream side and a covered wharf on the upstream side, both having a frontage on the basin and on the river. The wharves are of pile and timber construc- tion, with concrete quay walls and earth fill. A total berthing space of 1,125 feet, with a low water depth of 12 feet, is available. The freight and passenger shed on the upstream wharf is of steel frame construction, with timber floor and corrugated iron walls. The floor space is 250 by 50 feet (12,500 square feet) in area, and the floor is 3 feet above the ground level, to facilitate the transfer of freight to and from trucks and wagons. An upper deck 190 by 60 feet is used as a recreation pier. This terminal is ample for the present needs of water transportation, but plans for additional facilities have been worked out, for execution in case the development of water commerce exceeds the capacity of the present terminal. Freight is handled by hand trucks at present. A small crane mounted on a truck has been provided for handling heavy freight out- side the warehouse. No special coaling facilities have been provided. The commerce consists chiefly of lightweight freight, such as farm produce, merchandise, and packages, aggregating about 60,000 tons yearly. This commerce is carried in three self-propelled freight barges of about 200 tons capacity and one combination passenger and freight steamer of about 10 feet draft. Passenger service is supplied by three side-wheel steamers of 10 feet draft. The terms of public use have not been fixed, except as to the trans- portation company owning the vessels named above. This company has a 12 months' lease and operates practically all the water carriers using the port. No railroad connection has yet been established to this terminal, but an agreement has been reached with the Pennsylvania Railroad for a spur-track connection with the main line. A good roadway con- nects the dock with the city street system. - CHESTER, PA. Terminal facilities.—There are 33 piers and wharves at this lo- cality, mostly of pile or timber crib foundation with timber decks and occasional concrete walls. Piers vary in length from a few feet to 609 feet, with a total dockage length of about 22,000 feet. Pierhead depths at mean low water vary from 0 to 25 feet, 11 piers having 456 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 20 feet or over. Twenty-one of these terminals have mechanical appliances, such as cranes of the locomotive, bridge, hammerhead, and stationary types, electric or steam driven electric hoists, der- ricks, and coal unloaders varying in power from a 4-ton, hand- operated mast and gaff to the 120-ton electric hammerhead crane. Two large shipbuilding yards own eight piers between them, the city of Chester owns three piers, the remainder being owned by various industrial and commercial concerns, including two steel mills, an electric power company, an oil company, etc. Six of the piers are open to public use, three of them free of charge. Transfer facilities.—These include rail and highway only. Two trunk-line railroads, the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Philadelphia & Reading Railway have connections with 19 of the terminals, and good roadways lead from all terminals except two. Adequacy.—The terminal, transfer, and storage facilities are re- garded as adequate under present conditions, as this locality can not be expected to develop great activity as a shipping center until the facilities at Philadelphia become inadequate to handle the commerce of the port. - - Port administration.—General control is exercised by the Board of Commissioners of Navigation for the River Delaware and its navigable tributaries. A port warden, appointed by the municipality, has charge of the city piers. Port charges.—See remarks on port charges at Philadelphia. The city piers are used mainly for passenger service and are leased on a yearly basis to river transportation companies. Public ownership or control of waterfront.—The city owns only the three piers mentioned above. All other waterfront is in private Ownership and control. sº" interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities.— 1ght. - Efforts made to use navigation facilities available.—Private dredging is carried on to a sufficient extent to insure adequate depth at the docks for the vessels used, but in no case does this depth equal the main channel depth. Eacisting or desirable rail and water connections.—Nineteen ter– minals have direct physical connection with one or both of the rail- roads. No additional connections are regarded as necessary at this time. Delaware County Electric Co.'s piers, Chester, Pa.-These terminals, three in number, are located at the foot of Ward Street, and are all in good condition. The central terminal is a pier of open pile and timber construction with concrete walls and earth fill. The other two terminals are wharves, one of the same construction as above described, the other a timber platform on piles backed by a timber bulkhead, with earth fill. The dimensions of the three terminals are: No. 1, 609 feet long upper side, 419 feet long lower side, 400 feet wide; No. 2, 609 feet by 30 feet; No. 3, 419 feet by 30 feet. The depths at mean low water are 5 to 12 feet, 16 feet, and 14 feet, respectively. The central pier is equipped with two electrically driven, coal un- loading and conveying appliances. Coal is raised from the barges by 2-ton buckets which dump into a hopper, which in turn feeds by gravity into a crusher. The crushed coal feeds a line of cars, which carry it to a storage hopper. The upper wharf is equipped WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 457 with a 10-ton, electrically operated, stiff-legged derrick. None of these piers are open to public use, and only the center pier is used commercially, the wharf above being utilized as a mooring wharf for barges, and that below for construction purposes only. The termi- mals are adequate for present needs. The main article of commerce is coal, about 165,000 tons of which is received annually in barges of from 500 to 1,200 tons capacity. The company expects to operate a boat line between its various plants, but this step has not yet been taken. There are no warehouses or sheds on or near these piers, but there is a storage hopper for coal which supplies a power house partly covering the central pier. All of the terminals have good high- way connections, but only the central pier has rail connections. Spur lines belonging to the Delaware County Electric Co. extend the full length of the pier, and connect to both the Pennsylvania Rail- road and Philadelphia & Reading Railway. There is no interchange of traffic. - MARCUS HOOK, PA. Terminal facilities.—These consist of six piers of open pile or tim- ber crib construction in good condition. They vary in length from 250 feet to 400 feet and in pierhead depths from 9 feet to 30 feet. Three of the piers are owned by oil refineries, two by the United States, and one by the State of Pennsylvania. The two United States piers are open to public use free of charge, and one of them is used by a river transportation line which keeps the pier in repair. Commerce consists principally of oil and coal, and vessels up to 12,000 tons capacity use the port. Ample storage facilities are available. Transfer facilities.—Two trunk-line railroads, the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Philadelphia & Reading Railway have direct physi- cal connection with the three oil piers and five piers have good road- way connections. di Adequacy.—The existing facilities are adequate under present con- Itions. . Port administration.—The board of commissioners of navigation has direct control over the port. - Port charges.—See remarks on Philadelphia port charges. Public ownership or control over waterfront.—Three of the piers are publicly owned, and two of these are open to public use free of charge. SI General interest shown in the improvement of terminal facilities.— ight. - #ºn, made to utilize the navigation facilities available.—At two of the piers sufficient depth is maintained to utilize the full available depth of the main channel. Eristing or desirable rail and water connections.—Three of the piers have direct physical connection with one or both of the two rail- roads and no additional connections are necessary at the present time. - BURLINGTON, N. J. Terminal facilities.—There are 12 terminals of timber crib or pile construction, mostly wharves and improved bulkheads, in this lo- cality. Two of these belong to the city and One is open to public use on payment of wharfage. The remaining terminals are owned principally by industrial concerns who use them in connection with their plants. A total dockage length of 4,201 feet is available with 458 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. mean low-water depths of from 0 to 12 feet. The available channel depth is 12 feet at mean low water. Five of the terminals have me- chanical appliances, including traveling cranes and steam derricks. The commerce consists of coal, sand, iron, pipe, molasses, lumber, and general merchandise, carried in small barges and river steamers. The boats of a river transportation company stop at the city pier several times each day during the navigation season. Transfer facilities.—A ferry connects Burlington, N.J., with Bristol, Pa. Two of the terminals have direct physical railroad connection, the Pennsylvania Railroad owning the spurs. Adequacy.—The terminals are adequate for present and prospective requirements of commerce. Port administration.—A port warden appointed by the mayor has charge of the municipal water-front property. - Port charges.—These consist only in wharfage, a fee of $1 bein charged to transient boats stopping at the city wharf, and an annua rental of $300 being charged to the river transportation company which makes daily stops. Public ownership or control of water front.—The city owns very little property on the river and makes no effort to control the use of wharves Other than its own. General interest shown in improvement of terminal facilities.—None. Eristing rail and water commections.—As given under transfer fa- cilities. BRISTOL, PA. There are six piers here, of which two belong to the municipality and two to the Merchant Shipbuilding Corporation, agent of United States Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation. Piers are of F. or timber crib construction, and are suitable for the traffic andled. At low water only 12 feet depth of channel is available between Bristol and Philadelphia, and traffic is carried on by barges and river steamers. The shipbuilding corporation is engaged in the construction of 8,800-ton steel cargo vessels, whose average draft when ready for trial trip is about 13% feet. Commercial water ship- ments are carried on by a river transportation company, whose pier is open to all shippers on equal terms. Only the piers of the Merchant Shipbuilding Corporation have direct physical connection with a railroad (the Pennsylvania Railroad). Good roadways lead from all piers except one. The existing public piers are sufficient for the present needs. - Merchant Shipbuilding Corporation, Bristol, Pa.—This corporation has two fitting-out wharves, one above and one below the 12 shipways of their yard. These wharves are of pile and timber bent construc- tion, with timber decking 14 feet above low water, and are backed by a timber bulkhead with earth fill. They provide 460 feet and 1,385 feet berthing space, respectively, with 10 to 20 feet depth at mean low water. They are new and in good condition, and the larger of the two is equipped with a 100-ton Heyl & Patterson electric crane, with a 95-foot boom, which operates along the wharf of 900 feet length. The wharves are not used commercially and are not open to public carriers generally. The vessels constructed by this company are 8-800-ton steel cargo ships, 410 feet long with 54-foot beam. The existing wharves will accommodate four of these vessels at one time. Adjacent to the H. Doc. 652, 66-2. （~~~ （~~~~）. ：） VIEW OF HOG ISLAND SHIPBUILDING PLANT, DELAWARE RIVER, _ºl. Tºº-- º º - - - - 100-TON BRIDGE CRANE, HOG ISLAND, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 459 wharves is a storage space of 30,000 square yards for building mate- rials, and 5,000 square yards of shop buildings, part of which is avail- able for storage. The piers are connected to the Pennsylvania Railroad by two spurs, owned by the corporation, cars being placed by the railroad company. Practically all materials are received by rail. Good roads lead from the piers, connecting them with the Frankford-Bristol turnpike. CORNWELLs, PA. aſ Traylor Shipbuilding Corporation, Emergency Fleet Corporation, United States Shipping Board.—In connection with this yard of 10 shipways, 3 fitting-out and coaling piers are used, 1 at the upper end of the property and 1 each between shipways 2 and 3 and shipways 3 and 4. In addition, there is at the lower end of the yard a small platform built on a sunken barge which is used as a passenger pier for workmen arriving by boat. This platform is connected with the shore by a board walk. The other piers are of open pile and timber construction, and are in good condition. The largest, at the upper end of the property, is 34 feet long and 199 feet wide, with a mean low-water depth of 11 feet. It is equipped with a 15-ton, steam- operated, stiff-legged derrick, with a 75-foot boom. The other 2 piers are fitting-out piers only and are 30 feet long and 26 and 35 feet wide, respectively, with 11 feet mean low-water depth. Each is equipped with a steam-operated traveling derrick. These piers are not open to public use, and are not large enough for their purpose when the yard is in full operation. Work on another pier, which was in process of construction at the time of the signing of the armistice, has been discontinued. The vessels built here were of wood, materials being received by rail and coal by water. During the 15 months of its existence this yard built 8 vessels of 3,500 tons dead-weight capacity. The Pennsylvania Railroad has spurs running to the three piers. A good highway leads from the piers to the country road system. HOG ISLAND, PA. At this point there is a large shipbuilding plant, belonging to the United States Shipping Board's Emergency Fleet Corporation. Fifty ways in groups of ten, and a wet basin in which are seven open pile, fitting-out piers, constitute the yard. At these piers 14,000 feet of berthing space is available, with mean low-water depths of from 23 to 30 feet. Each pier is equipped with steam-operated, oil-burning, locomotive gantry cranes of 5-ton capacity, while pier B has in addition a 100-ton electric hammer-head crane. Each of the shipways is equipped with four stiff-legged derricks. The piers are not open to public use. They are adequate for their purpose. - Fabricated steel vessels of standard type are assembled here, the estimated maximum capacity being one vessel every two days. To date about 70 vessels have been completed. Each of the seven piers has good highway connections and direct physical rail connections with the three local railroads over spurs belonging the the Emergency Fleet Corporation. 460 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. BRAMELL POINT, N. J. Vacuum Oil Co.'s wharf.-This wharf is of open pile and timber deck construction, surmounted by a sand and gravel fill behind con- crete walls. It is 1,200 feet long, with mean-low water depth of 33 feet along the entire frontage. It is equipped with a 2-ton, steam- operated, coal stocking bridge, and four 15-ton steam locomotive cranes. It is used only by the owners. About 140,000 tons of coal and 450,000 tons of oil are received annually, the coal in 900-ton barges and the oil in steam tankers, the largest of which are of 11,000-ton burden. The wharf is in good condition and is adequate for its purpose. - The Oil Co. owns a spur which connects the wharf with the West Jersey & Seashore Railroad, the only railroad in the vicinity. No interchange of traffic takes place. A good roadway leads from the wharf. WILMINGTON, DEL. Wilmington is situated on the Christiana River, about half a mile above its junction with the Delaware, and has no water terminals on the latter stream at present. However, an elaborate harbor improve— ment plan has been adopted by the city, which expects in time to develop into an important port. The plan provides for several large modern piers on the Delaware, with excellent railroad and highway connections, ample storage space, and good factory sites. à WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

Location and description.—The Cooper River rises in Camden County, N. J., and empties into the Delaware River at the city of Camden. It has a navigable length of 8% miles. The mean range of tide is 6 feet at the mouth and 2 feet at Stoys Landing, the head of navigation, with an extreme range of 10 feet. - Eristing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 12 feet deep at mean low water and 70 feet wide across the bar outside the mouth and thence upstream about 1.7 miles. General character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce on this river is building material, coal, chemicals, iron, oil, and miscellaneous material, and amounted in 1918 to 324,478 short tons, valued at $7,294,548.69. It is carried in steamers and barges, the usual draft. varying from 7 to 14 feet. - Terminal facilities.—The west side of this river is provided with practically continuous wharves through the city of Camden, and sev- eral important wharves are found upon the east side of the river. They are all owned by private interests and most of them have direct connection with the Pennsylvania Railroad. Four of them are open to public use at a nominal charge and one is free of charge. There is no usable public water terminal on Cooper River controlled by the city of Camden, but the authorities give assurance that one will be built in the near future. The facilities are considered adequate for any commerce that can use the river. - © 2. WOODBURY CREEK N. J. Location and description.—Woodbury Creek rises in Gloucester County, N. J., and empties into the Delaware River about 9 miles below Philadelphia, Pa. It has a navigable length of 4 miles. The mean range of tide is 5.7 feet at the mouth and 4.3 feet at Woodbury. Eristing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water from the Delaware River to Woodbury.

Eristing project.—This provides for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water from the Delaware River to Pedricktown, a distance of 6 miles, and thence 5 feet deep at mean low water to Auburn, a farther distance of 9 miles. The mean range of tide is 6 feet at the mouth, 2.4 feet at Pedricktown, and 0.9 foot at Auburn. General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce on this creek consists principally of coal, fertilizers, and farm produce, and amounted in 1918 to 19,025 short tons, valued at $269,051. The freight is handled principally in small gasoline vessels and scows, having drafts varying from 4 to 6 feet when loaded. Terminal facilities.—There are 11 usable pile and timber wharves on this river, besides other small farm landings. All wharves are privately owned, but 5 are open to the public upon payment of small wharfage charges. None of them are reached by railway, but the highways are in fair condition and adequately serve the communities interested. The terminals are considered adequate for present and prospective commerce. 6. SALEM RIVER, N. J. Location and description.—This river, a tidal stream, rises in Salem County, N. J., and empties into the Delaware River about 45 miles below Philadelphia, Pa. It has a navigable length of about 4 miles and a mean range of tide of 6 feet. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 9 feet deep and 100 feet wide from the Delaware River to the fixed highway bridge over Little Salem River at Salem. General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce on this river consists of building materials, canned goods, crude oil, fertilizers, farm produce, and miscellaneous items. In 1918 it amounted to 25,422 short tons, valued at $1,158,499, which is about one-third of that for the previous years. This is probably due to discontinuance of operation of the regular freight boat, on account of war conditions, and the consequent diversion of freight to the railroads. The com- merce on this river is handled by one freight and passenger steamer, tugs with barges, and gasoline boats. The usual draft of loaded boats is 6 to 10 feet. • Terminal facilities.—There are 13 wharves on this river, all at Salem, N. J. Twelve are of timber construction and one part timber and part concrete. Two are publicly owned and free to the public. Five others may be used at nominal charges.

Terminal facilities.—There are 11 usable wharves on this river, besides wharves in poor condition and insignificant landings. At Bivalve and Maurice River, N. J., are extensive terminals adapted WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 573 to the handling of fish and oysters. They consist of warehouses on the bank from which a number of short piers extend channel- ward. They are owned by the railroads, whose tracks extend to the terminals. No charge is made for wharfage when the cargoes are to be shipped over the railroad lines. Four other wharves on the river are open to the public at nominal charges. The facilities are considered adequate for present and prospective commerce. - 11. ABSECON INLET, N. J. Location and description.—Absecon Inlet connects the waters of Absecon Bay and connecting waterways with the Atlantic Ocean, and separates Atlantic City from Brigantine Beach at a point about 65 miles north of Delaware Breakwater. Eristing project.—This provides for obtaining, and maintaining by dredging for a period of five years, a channel through the inlet 12 feet deep and 300 feet wide, the question of continuing the improve- ment to be then determined in the light of the commerce that may be developed. The mean range of tide is 4% feet. General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce on this waterway consists of fish, oysters, building materials, garden truck, and miscellaneous merchandise. In 1917 it reached a total of 30,499 short tons, valued at $1,850,800. This was reduced in 1918 to 11,670 short tons, valued at $1,036,600, due principally to reduced construction work, which practically eliminated building materials from the commerce. The average commerce for the five years since the improvement began is 17,673 short tons, and the average value $1,647,830. The commerce is handled by small steamers, schooners, sloops, and power yachts, having drafts varying from 3 to 10 feet when loaded. A considerable number of these vessels are used for pleasure purposes only, while some are used for carrying excursion parties to the Atlantic Ocean and return. About 150,000 passengers were handled by these vessels in 1918. Terminal facilities.—A continuous line of wharves commences about one-half way inside Absecon Inlet and continues on south channel side for a distance of from 3 to 5 miles, including wharfage in several large basins which indent the south shore line. The majority of the wharves are small, and used for pleasure purposes. Fourteen wharves are used for freight handling, of which one is free and 13 may be used for small wharf age charges. Three are equipped with freight handling devices and 10 have railroad connections, though there is no interchange of frieght. The facilities are adequate for existing commerce, bºt with a view to meeting prospective needs of commerce the municipal government of Atlantic City has asked for bids on the construction of a steamship basin and wharf. 12. ABSECON CREEK, N. J. Location and description.—This creek is a tidal stream rising in and flowing easterly through Atlantic County, N. J., and emptying into Absecon Bay, about 5 miles northwest of Atlantic City. Its width varies from 280 feet at the mouth to 80 feet at Absecon, the head of navigation, 2 miles above the mouth. 574 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 5 feet deep, 80 feet wide from deep water in Absecon Bay across the flats to the mouth of the creek, a distance of 1 mile; thence 50 feet wide to the highway bridge at Absecon village, including a turning basin at that point. The mean tidal range is 4 feet. General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce on this Creek consists of fish, oysters, clams, fertilizer material, garden pro- duce, etc., and amounted in 1918 to 8,952 short tons valued at $245,985. It is handled by gasoline vessels, schooners and barges, having drafts varying from 3 to 6 feet. Terminal facilities.—There are two publicly-owned pile and timber wharves at the village of Absecon, both of which are free to all. There are also several old wharves and landings which are free to all, though not much used. The facilities are considered adequate for present and prospective commerce. 13. TUCKERTON CREEK. N. J. Location and description.—This creek rises in Ocean County, N. J., and empties into Little Egg Harbor. The head of navigation is at Tuckerton, 2 miles above the mouth. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 5 to 6 feet deep to just above Scow Landing, Tuckerton, thence 3 feet deep to the mill dam at Tuckerton. The total length of the channel is 33 miles. The mean range of the tide is 2.5 feet. - General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce on this stream consists of fish, oysters, clams, gasoline, fertilizer, machinery, farm produce, and general merchandise, and amounted, in 1918, to 5,456 short tons, valued at $389,720. Owing to war conditions this is less than one-third of the average commerce of the creek. The boats operating on the creek are gasoline vessels, schooners, and barges, having drafts ranging from 3 to 5% feet loaded. Terminal facilities.—There are 3 pile and timber wharves at Tuckerton owned by the municipality and free to all. They are without railroad connections. In addition to these, there are a number of oyster houses fronting upon the lower end of the creek. At these houses oysters and clams are delivered from the bays, and packed for shipment by rail to the city markets. The terminal and transfer facilities are considered adequate for present and prospective commerce upon this stream. 14. TOMS RIVER, N. J. Location, and description.—This river, a tidal stream, rises in Ocean County, N. J., flows easterly 19 miles, and empties into Barnegat Bay, about 11 miles north of Barnegat Inlet.

The mean tidal range is 6 inches. General character and extent ºf commerce.—The general character of commerce on this river is fish, clams, gasoline, meats, groceries, lumber, hardware, and miscellaneous merchandise. In 1918 it amounted to 1,860 short tons, valued at $202,150. The tonnage was WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 575 much below normal, due to temporary closing of shipyards caused by the employees being ordered to larger yards for more important work of national defense. The valuation was higher than normal, due to the increased cost of the commodities shipped. There were also 22,800 passengers carried during 1918. The commerce is han- dled in small gasoline vessels having drafts averaging about 3 feet. Occasionally vessels drawing 5 feet use this river. Terminal facilities.—The borough of Toms River maintains a masonry wharf with available wharfage of 927 feet free to the public. The Central Railroad Co. of New Jersey also operates a wharf 487 feet long connected with its rail line. It is open to the public at nominal charges, but there is very little interchange of freight. There are also several smaller wharves and landings along the river which are usually free to the public. The facilities are adequate for present and prospective commerce. 15. CHESTER RIVER, PA. Location and description.—This is a tidal stream rising in Chester County, Pa., and flowing southeasterly 22 miles into Delaware River at Chester, Pa. The head of navigation for small boats without masts or housework is Upland, 2 miles above the mouth. Vessels with masts can go only to the Second Street Bridge, Chester, 1,000 feet above the mouth. - Existing project.—This provides for a channel 8 feet deep from the mouth to the Second Street Bridge, Chester, the width varying from 60 feet at the mouth to 50 feet at the upper end. The mean tidal range is 6 feet. - General character and extent of commerce.—Statistics of the com- merce on this river during recent years are available only for 1916 and 1918. They consist principally of coal, farm produce, fish, and gen- eral merchandise. The commerce for 1916 was 119,088 short tons, valued at $690,421; that for 1918 amounted to 11,824 short tons, valued at $266,161. It is carried in gasoline vessels, barges, etc., having drafts varying from 3 to 8 feet loaded. Terminal facilities.—There are 13 wharves on the water front of Chester River, one of which is a concrete bulkhead, publicly owned and free to all. Several others are open to public use at a small charge. None are directly connected with railroad lines. Such con- nection is not needed for the class of commerce using this river. Existing facilities are considered adequate for present and prospective COIIll Iſle I’Ce. 16. WILMINGTON HARBOR, DEL. Location and description.—Christiana River rises in New Castle County, Del., flows notheasterly 16 miles, passing through the city of Wilmington, and empties into Delaware River about 29 miles below Philadelphia, Pa. The width varies from 750 feet at the mouth to 50 feet at Christiana Village, the head of navigation, 15 miles above the mouth. About 14 miles above the mouth it is joined by Brandy- wine River, which is navigable for about 1 mile. Eristing project.—This provides for a channel in Christiana River 21 feet deep and 250 feet wide from Delaware River to the mouth of Brandywine River, a channel of the same depth 200 feet wide to the pulp works, 4 miles above the mouth (just above Wilmington). 576 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Above this point the channel dimensions are gradually reduced to a depth of 7 feet and width of 100 feet, extending to Newport, Del., 8% miles above the mouth of the river. The mean tidal range varies from 6 feet at the mouth to 3.5 feet at the head of navigation. - General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce at Wil- mington Harbor is coal, chemicals, dry goods, explosives, hides, oils, pulp wood, vehicles, and general merchandise. In 1918 it amounted to 532,225 short tons, valued at $169,078,945, and 3,341,041 pas- sengers. About 90 per cent of this commerce is handled by river steamers operating on Delaware River. The usual limits of draft for these vessels are 9 to 12 feet. The facilities of this harbor are also used by a considerable number of vessels coming in for repair at the large shipyards on the river and by vessels constructed at these yards. These frequently draw as much as 18 feet. Terminal facilities.—Wharves, principally pile and timber bulk- heads, exist along both sides of Christiana River from a short dis- tance above the mouth to the upper limits of the city of Wilmington. There are a few wharves and landings higher up, principally at New- port. Some of the wharves in Wilmington are equipped with derricks, and one wharf at Newport has a conveyor for handling bulk material from wharf to factory adjoining. There is very little inter- change of freight between rail and water, though such facilities exist at a number of wharves. The city owns considerable water-front property, a portion of which is improved and leased to steamboat companies and shipyards. One stretch of 928 feet is used for park purposes. The water is quite shallow along this stretch, but small pleasure, vegetable, and oyster boats may land along the bulkhead ; Several other wharves are open to use at small wharfage Charges. - - Mention should also be made of the large shipbuilding and repair plants on the north side of Christiana River. They are the Jackson & Sharp plant of the American Car & Foundry Co., the Pusey & Jones Co., and the Harlan plant of the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Cor- poration. All are continuously operated in the building and repair of vessels. They have ample dockage and wharfage facilities. In addtion there are three other marine railways with shop facilities, where smaller vessels can be repaired. The terminal facilities of the #. are adequate forcº commerce and for any commerce that is ikely to develop on Christiana River in the near future. This river is not physically capable of accommodating large ocean liners. Port administration and charges.—There are no port charges at Wilmington other than the small wharfage charged for the use of some of the wharves. - The administration of the port of Wilmington is intrusted to the board of harbor commissioners for the city of Wilmington, created by act of the State legislature approved April 12, 1917. This board has power, subject to the approval of the council of the city of Wilmington to adopt a plan for the comprehensive enlargement of the terminal and transfer facilities of the port, and to proceed with such enlargement at municipal expense. In addition the board of harbor commissioners has the following powers: (a) To make, adopt, and enforce by-laws, rules, and regulations regarding the use and management of all municipal wharves, piers, and docks, or other municipal water-front property, including structures and appliances, and to collect and receive the income therefrom. - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 577 (b) To fix, regulate, and collect rates or charges for wharfage, tonnage, and other Services rendered in the loading and unloading of vessels or other carriers, and also such warehouse and storage charges as it mav determine. (c) To enter into joint arrangements with steamship lines, railroads, railways or any other transportation line, or any common carriers, if said board shall deem it to the advantage of the city so to do. (d) To construct all or any part of the work contemplated in said plan by contract or otherwise as it may determine. General interest shown in the improvement of terminals.-The board of harbor commissioners is actively engaged in the prepara- tion of a suitable plan for the improvement of the terminal facilities of Wilmington and is assisted by a competent consulting engineer. This plan contemplates the development of a combined railway and steamship terminal at the mouth of Christiana River, where ample depth for ocean steamships can readily be obtained, with possible later extension of the terminals along the west bank of the Delaware. River just below the mouth of Christiana River. The plan has been submitted to the city council for approval, and public sentiment is strongly in favor of its adoption. the city is served by the lines of the Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio, and Philadelphia & Reading Railroads the development proposed, if carried out, will enable the city of Wilmington to compete with other ports for ocean commerce. 17. APPOQUINIMINK RIVER, DEL. Location and description.—This is a tidal stream rising on the Maryland-Delaware divide, flowing easterly 9 miles through New Castle County, Del., and emptying into Delaware River about 50 miles below Pniladelphia, Pa. Tne width varies from 200 feet at the mouth to 100 feet at Odessa, the head of navigation, 6% miles above the mouth. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 8 feet deep from the moutn to Odessa. The mean tidal range is 5.2 feet near the mouth and 3.3 feet at Odessa. - - General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce on this river consists of canned goods, coal, fertilizers, farm produce, etc., and amounted, in 1918, to 2,059 short tons, valued at $93,890. It is carried in steamboats, barges, and small gasoline vessels, having drafts ranging from 3 to 7 feet when loaded. Terminal facilities.—There are two pile wharves at Odessa serving, respectively, a canning factory and a coal yard. Neither is open to public use. There are also farm landings, and a few wharves in poor condition along the banks of the stream. While adequate for present commerce, it is believed that a greater commerce would develop if a public wharf was constructed at Odessa. There is no railroad nearer any wharf on this river than 3 miles. 18. SMYRNA RIVER, DEL.

General character and eatent of commerce.—The principal items of commerce on this river are canned goods, coal, fertilizers, grain, hay, tomatoes, and miscellaneous farm produce. In 1918 it amounted to 3,144 short tons, valued at $107,480. This is about one-third of the average tonnage handled, the reduction being said to be due largely to scarcity of vessels. The commerce is handled in small steamers, schooners, and gasoline boats, having drafts ranging from 3 to 7 feet. Terminal facilities.—There are three wharves on this river besides farm landings and wharves in bad conditions. The nearest railroad is at Cheswold, 5 miles from Leipsic. All wharves are privately owned, but are free to the public. They provide adequately for present and prospective needs of commerce. - - 20. LITTLE RIVER, DEL. Location and description.—This is a tidal stream, rising in Kent County, Del., and flowing easterly 7 miles into Delaware Bay at a point about 32 miles above Cape Henlopen. The head of navigation is at Little Creek Landing, 3% miles above the mouth.

The mean tidal range is 5 feet at the mouth and 4% feet at Little Creek Landing. - - General character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce on this river consists principally of fish, oysters, clams, fertilizers, grain, and miscellaneous farm produce. In 1918 it amounted to 9,076 short tons, valued at $215,548. The commerce is handled in small steam and gasoline vessels, and a number of oyster schooners. The usual limits of draft are from 3% to 8 feet when loaded. Terminal facilities.—There is only one small wharf on this river at Little Creek Landing. There are several others in poor condition and insignificant landings exist along the banks at various places. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 579 No connection is had with railway lines, but no necessity for such connection exists... The wharf at Little Creek Landing is free to all. While present facilities are probably adequate for existing commerce, they are not sufficient for any increased business. 21. ST. JONES RIVER, DEL. Location and description.—This is a tidal stream flowing southeast- erly 22 miles into Delaware Bay at a point about 26 miles above Cape Henlopen. Controlling depths are 3% feet to Lebanon, 11 miles above the mouth, and 3 feet to Dover, 17 miles above the mouth The mean range of tide is 4% feet at the mouth and 1% feet at Dover. Eristing project.—This provides for a channel 7 feet deep from Delaware Bay to Dover. Work on this project has not been started, pending compliance with conditions of local cooperation stipulated in the project. General character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce on this river consists of canned goods, fertilizers, fish, oysters, clams, grain, tomatoes, miscellaneous farm produce, etc. In 1918 it amounted to 2,612 short tons, valued at $125,478. Due to the scarcity of vessels, this is only about one-third of the average tonnage handled. It is handled in small steamers, motor vessels, barges, and sailing vessels having drafts ranging from 4 to 6 feet when loaded. The larger ones are compelled to “work the tide.” Terminal facilities.—There is only one usable wharf on this river. There are three others which could be repaired, and several small landings. . All are privately owned, but free to the public. While terminal facilities on this river are probably sufficient for present commerce, growth in the commerce is hampered by lack of suitable facilities. Unless additional terminals are provided, particularly at Dover, the improvement contemplated by the existing project will be of little value. - 22. MURDERKILL RIVER, DEL.

LO PING, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. BALTIMORE HARBOR AND CHANNELS, MD. Baltimore Harbor consists of the Patapsco River and tributaries. It may be divided into five parts, viz: The Northwest Branch; the Middle Branch; Patapsco River proper; Curtis Bay; and tributaries, excepting Curtis Bay. The Northwest Branch is that part from Fort McHenry to Light Street. The Middle Branch is that part which extends from the main river at Ferry Bar in a northwesterly direction for a distance of about 1% miles to the foot of Eutaw Street, with a width varying from about 1,000 to 4,000 feet. * The Patapsco River proper embraced in Baltimore Harbor is that part from the mouth to Ferry Bar, about 11% miles in length and varying in width from about 1 mile to 3 miles. - The Curtis Bay section is a tidal estuary on the south side of the Patapsco about 3% miles southeasterly of Baltimore and is the mouth of Curtis Creek. There are numerous tributaries and subtributaries, other than Curtis Bay, which are included in the general term Baltimore Har- bor. They consist generally of tidal estuaries with small inflow of fresh water. The average tidal range over the whole harbor area is about 15 inches. With few exceptions, when it is closed for a few days at a time by ice, the harbor is open to navigation all the year around. The existing Government project for Baltimore Harbor provides for an approach channel 1,000 feet wide and 35 feet deep at mean low water between the curves of 35 feet depth across York Spit bar in lower Cnesapeake Bay, for a distance of about 4% miles; 35 feet deep and 600 feet wide from the 35-foot curve below the mouth of the Patapsco River to and in that river as far as Fort McHenry, 20 miles; for a branch channel 35 feet deep and 250 feet wide into Curtis Bay to head of bay, 2% miles; for a branch channel 35 feet deep and 400 feet wide into Southwest Baltimore Harbor to a point near Ferry Bar, and 27 feet deep and 250 feet wide to the Western Maryland Railway bridge, 3% miles; for widening at the approaches and bends and for anchorage and turning basins; also, that as rapidly as the city of Baltimore at its own expense extends the 35-foot depth into the inner harbor or basin inside of Fort McHenry the United States take over the maintenance of such extension. The project as now existing is about 77 per cent completed. The commerce of the harbor is general in character, including that which originates in it, on the Chesapeake Bay and tributaries, coast- wise, and foreign. 622 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 623 The principal imports are bananas, clover seed, corkwood and waste, copper, chrome ore, fertilizers, herring (salted), iron ore, man- ganese ore, mackerel (salted), mineral oil, paper stock, pig iron, nitrate of soda, sulphur ore, salt, tea, tin, wood pulp, bristles, china and earthenware, clays, cork manufactures, cotton cloth, cotton laces, cotton manufactures, linens, licorice root, marble, matting, molasses, º pepper, straw braid, leaf tobacco, toys and dolls, and wool ClOth. - The principal exports are agricultural implements, animal feed, bacon and hams, canned and salted beef, binder twine, barley, brass, cars, carriages, copper, chemicals, coal, coke, raw cotton, cotton cloth, corn, explosives, wheat flour, fruits, hair, iron and steel manu- factures, lard, leather, lumber, machinery, prepared milk, neutral lard and oleo oil, naval stores, nickel, oats, oatmeal, oils, paper, paraffin wax, rye, starch, steel rails, tallow, leaf tobacco, tin manu- factures, wheat, and zinc.

The number of ocean-going vessels using the harbor during 1918, in which the season of navigation was from January 1 to December 31, was as follows: 833 foreign steamers and 219 domestic steamers. They varied in tonnage from under 500 to over 5,000, and in draft from under 10 feet to over 30 feet. There are 38 miles of dockage and water front within the old city limits and a total of 120 miles facing at least 10 feet of water within the harbor. * - The city of Baltimore owns nearly 6 miles of wharfage front in a state of modern development, as far as the dock, pier, and bulkhead construction are concerned. This property is all adjacent to the city’s belt-line railroad and all reached by well-paved highways. The city's wharf and dock development is under control of the city comptroller and the harbor board. It is generally rented to private interests on the basis of a price per square foot per annum, in some cases on a long-term lease. In other cases leases are by the year, the 624 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. tenant usually erecting his own warehouses and freight-handling facilities. Space is also provided in which transient vessels may lie on payment of a daily wharfage charge. The balance of the developed frontage is owned by the large railroad and steamboat lines and other private interests, which have constructed and operate them for their individual purposes. These private terminals are equipped with such appliances as their owners consider best for their special purposes. CANTON CO. AND CANTON RAILROAD, Canton Co. owns large water front, partly improved, and is connected by Canton Railroad, 8 miles long, with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, the Pennsylvania Rail- road, and the Western Maryland Railway. Has one pier 200 feet long by 100 feet wide with warehouse 200 feet by 80 feet and small warehouse in rear. - Has one fireproof pier 800 feet long by 150 feet wide with iron shed and, adjacent to a dock 150 feet wide by 1,200 feet long, of reinforced concrete, with sprinkler system, a six-story warehouse 200 feet long by 80 feet wide.

Has new railroad yard with 2 miles of track and a ferry slip for transfer of cars on barges. BALTIMORE & OHIO RAILROAD CO. The Locust Point terminal of this company is the largest on the Atlantic seaboard. There millions of tons of freight are imported and exported annually and thousands of immigrants are landed each year. Locust Point covers a mile of water front and is situated directly behind historic Fort McHenry. This terminal is well appointed, with a system of spacious docks, large freight and coal piers, and mammoth grain ele- vators with capacity of 2,500,000 bushels, and it is equipped with modern apparatus for fire protection with a high-pressure pipe-line system supplied by pumps having a capacity of 4,750 gallons a minute. Has 11 piers—9 open and 2 covered—with an aggregate floor space of about 800,000 square feet. Pier 8 is the largest and is 980 feet long and 160 feet wide with a two- story shed, 941 feet by 138 feet, of 259,000 square feet of floor area. It is equipped with the Telpherage system operated by electricity on a series of overhead tracks on which 20 carriers handle freight about the piers (10 of 2-ton and 10 of 4-ton capacity). Pier 9, the next largest, is 855 feet long by 160 feet wide, with a two-story shed, 800 feet by 138 feet, of 220,800 square feet floor area. The second floor is used as an im- migrant station and a section of the pier is used as a bonded warehouse for dutiable imports. #. terminal was established in 1858, when the famous Baltimore clippers were monarchs of the sea. In 1865 the railroad company purchased four steamers from the Government and established a trans-Atlantic line to European ports. In 1868 the North German Lloyd established service between Locust Point and Bremen. At Curtis Bay the railroad company has the largest and one of the best equipped coal terminals on the Atlantic coast. PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD CO.

Has pontoon bridges for transferring cars on barges, and has storage capacity at Port Covington for 2,000 freight cars with over 60 tracks in service. - - One of the most important of the several large projects now being carried on b the city of Baltimore is the construction and improvement of a system of wide, well- paved, low-grade streets which will extend along or parallel the city’s water front from Pratt Street on the north side of the Inner Harbor to McComas Street, on the South side of Locust Point, along the north shore of the Patapsco River. Three of the streets in this system, viz: Pratt Street along the north shore at the head of Several of the municipal piers; Light Street along the west shore; and two sections of the Key Highway along the south shore of the Inner Harbor have already been widened and improved—while the third section of the Key Highway, that sec- tion which extends across the Locust Point Isthmus and which will connect McComas Street, the proposed marginal street along the north shore of the Patapsco River, with the portion of the highway heretofore improved, is now under construction. The remaining link in the system, McComas Street, will give a direct connection to Hanover Street, the Southern entrance street to the city from the rich tidewater industrial and agricultural sections of Baltimore and Anne Arundel Counties with all parts of the harbor. - When completed these streets will greatly facilitate the interchange of business between the various terminals of the harbor and the industries of the city. The city has constructed in the beds of the several completed streets the Municipal Harbor Railroad, owned and operated by the municipality. The road will connect 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—40 626 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. the three trunk lines which serve the city; connection with the Pennsylvania Rail- road will be at President and Aliceanna Streets, with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad at Fort Avenue and Lawrence Street, and with the Western Maryland Railway at McComas Street west of the Key Highway. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and Pennsylvania Railroad connections have been made while that with the Western Maryland Railway will be made in the near future. Through the building and operating of this Municipal Harbor Railroad by the city manufacturing and industrial concerns of Baltimore enjoy the advantages of the flat Baltimore rate and the elimination of high switching charges. Three trunk-line railways afford this port, every facility for dis- tribution of products to the great industrial and producing centers of the West and South, and vice versa. - e . It is close to the great coal fields of Pennsylvania and West Vir- ginia, which assure a constant and ample supply of fuel. There are also ample facilities for supplying fuel oil. Ample anchorages are controlled and maintained. Two powerful fire boats are maintained on constant duty, and are supplemented by the harbor board's tug, which is also subject to call by the fire department. Two police boats patrol the harbor at all hours. & A thoroughly modern and complete, quarantine station, located about 3 miles below Fort McHenry, is maintained and operated from sunrise to sunset. There is no charge for any service rendered by the station in the interest of public health. The United States Government has constructed a modern immi- gration station. e - - Two large ice boats are maintained to keep the harbor and ap- proaches open when obstructed by ice, which occurs for short periods. only during the very coldest winters. e A municipal ferry is maintained and operated across the inner harbor or basin from the foot of Broadway to Locust Point. There are no municipal port charges. Free lighterage is accorded all traffic on which the railroads receive not less than 7 cents per 100 pounds, or $1.40 per ton (2,000 or 2,240 pounds), when destined to or received from points within the free lighterage limits, defined as follows: Both sides of basin and harbor; north side of Patapsco River to mouth of Colgate Creek; south side of Patapsco River from Middle Branch to and including Wagners Point; Middle Branch; Wagners Point to and including Ferry Point in Curtis Bay; both sides of Curtis Creek from Curtis Bay to the drawbridge; south side of Curtis Bay from Sledds Point to and including Leading Point. TOWING RATES. For scows: Within the city limits, from $1.50 to $3.50. For vessels: Within the city limits, from $1.50 to $35, depending on tonnage, from the mouth of the bay (loaded), from $124 for a 200 tonnage vessel to $425 for a 3,000 tonnage vessel. A pilot boat is maintained by the Maryland Pilots Association off the capes of the Chesapeake, and all foreign vessels are required to take a pilot, the rates to Baltimore being— Per foot.

Large coaling barges, equipped with mechanical devices for coaling vessels while cargo is being loaded or unloaded, are always available. The rail- roads all maintain bridges and car floats and a considerable tonnage is handled directly from vessel to cars on floats alongside, and vice VēI'Sa. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 627 The railroads all maintain and operate large piers for handling both bunker and cargo coal. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. has recently completed at Curtis Bay what is said to be the largest and most efficient coal- handling plant in the world. The pier is of concrete, is equipped with a large thawing house, is electrically operated, and handles the coal on belt conveyers having a capacity of 7,000 tons per hour, or 12,000,000 tons per year. There is also at this terminal a large trestle pier from which the cars discharge their coal by gravity. The Pennsylvania Railroad Co. operates a large, high, double- track coal pier with a capacity of 60 cars, and the Western Maryland Railway Co. another large pier similar to the trestle of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. at Curtis Bay. There are abundant facilities at this port for vessel repairs. There are two large graving dry docks, one 628 by 125 feet; a large floating dry dock, several small floating dry docks, and many marine rail- ways and repair shops scattered over all parts of the harbor. The railroads all maintain and operate grain elevators of large capacity. The port is prominent in grain exports and enjoys a freight rate advantage on account of close proximity to the western fields of production. Numerous spacious fireproof warehouses, equipped with modern freight-handling devices, and heating and refrigerating plants, are located on the water front and at convenient points back thereof. Certain warehouse receipts issued by the storage warehouse com— panies are negotiable through Baltimore banking institutions. There is considerable undeveloped water-front property facing deep water to be found on both sides of the Patapsco River and its principal tributaries, most all at present accessible to one or more railroads. The municipal factory site commission, a department of the city government, is in close touch with the real estate market and offers service absolutely free in finding sites for terminals of any character. A new body, styled the export and import board, is in course of organization. Its functions will be virtually those of a clearing house, assuring merchants and manufacturers shipping facilities, and shipping incoming as well as outgoing cargoes. } t is believed there would be considerably more development of water-front property if the tax which the city imposes on each square foot of land reclaimed were removed. There has been some delay and difficulty on account of this tax in securing a full com- pliance with the condition for local cooperation in the act providing for the latest Government project channel for this port. There is no unusual feature in the design of the piers at this port. They are constructed generally of standard design. - The Variation of tidal planes is not great enough to require special appliances for the adjustment of freight-handling devices. The limits of the city of Baltimore have recently been extended and now include all that part of the harbor west of a line drawn north from Hawkins Point, a little over 4 miles below Fort McHenry. The principal terminals of the port are those of the three railroad systems, used (excepting the coal piers) almost exclusively for export and import traffic, a large percentage of which is transshipped. 628 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. These terminals occupy about 10 miles of the wharf front of the port, and at the largest the depth of Water at the terminal is 35 feet at mean low tide. - The largest of the private terminals is that of the Bethlehem Steel Co. at Sparrows Point, on the north side of the river, about 6 miles below Fort McHenry, where there are large shipbuilding, rail, tin plate, and steel plants, and about 2 miles of developed water front with private channels of 35 feet, 25 feet, and 20 feet depth dredged by the steel company from the main 35-foot ship channel. The principal coastwise terminal is that of the Merchants & Miners Transportation Co., consisting of two two-story frame structures, each about 770 feet long by 70 feet wide, built on one of the city's piers leased to the company. There is a length of 1,744 feet of dockage with a depth of 24 feet of water at the terminal, which faces on a broad, well-paved highway and adjacent to both the Baltimore & Ohio and Municipal Belt Railroads. The terminals of the bay steamers are generally along Light Street, at the head of the basin, and consist of pile piers surmounted by frame structures of one or two stories height. The harbor of Baltimore is not subject to floods, is well protected against storms from all directions, is almost self-maintaining as to depth, the approaches from the capes to the city are well defined by lights and buoys, and the terminals are generally adequate and efficient for economical operation.

The combined available dockage is approximately 7,735 feet distributed as follows: Below the drawbridge, about 3,110 feet; above the drawbridge, about 1,625 feet; and on the south fork of the river, about 3,000 feet. The only wharf equipped with mechani- cal appliances of any kind is that owned by Tilghman & Co., upon which is installed a steam crane, and necessary freight-handling de- vices for loading and unloading vessels. Three of the wharves have railroad connections—the Baltimore, Chesapeake & Atlantic Rail- way Co. Wharf, above the drawbridge, has a spur line connection with its line; and those of F. A. Grier & Son and G. F. Mitchell, also located above the drawbridge, have spur-line connections with the New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk Railroad. The last two men- tioned wharves, together with seven other wharves on this improve- ment, are open to all public carriers at reasonable rates. The re- maining five wharves are used exclusively by the owners. The terminal facilities on this portion of the improvement are con- sidered adequate. There are no statistics available relating to terminal facilities on the portion of the improvement between Great Shoals Lighthouse and Fruitland Wharf, but as it merely connects the deep water of the Chesapeake Bay with the channel in the upper reaches of the river and harbor at Salisbury, that portion of the improvement will receive the direct benefit of the work between Great Shoals Lighthouse and Fruitland Wharf, and little if any need exists for terminal facilities on this portion of the project.

C., DISTRICT. CO L. M. C. TYLER, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. 1. POTOMAC AND ANACOSTIA RIVERS AT WASHINGTON, D. C. The city of Washington, D. C., is situated at the head of naviga- tion of the Potomac River, 110 miles from Chesapeake Bay and about 225 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. The port has three dis- tinct channels, namely: The Virginia Channel, affording a water- way to the northwest section of the city; the Washington Channel, affording a waterway to the southwest section of the city, and the Anacostia River Channel, affording a waterway to the southeast section of the city. The frontages on the waterway are: The Vir- ginia Channel, 23,300 linear feet, of which 4,000 linear feet are avail- able for commerce and 19,300 linear feet are set aside for Potomac Park and its connection with Rock Creek Park; the Washington Channel, 19,565 linear feet, of which 5,440 linear feet are available for commerce, 10,125 linear feet are set aside for Potomac Park and 4,000 linear feet are set aside for Washington Barracks; the Ana- costia River Channel, to the Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington Railroad bridge, near Massachusetts Avenue, 34,700 linear feet, of which 10,000 linear feet are available for commerce, 19,800 linear feet are set aside for Anacostia Park, 3,400 linear feet for navy yard, 950 linear feet for Washington Barracks, and 550 linear feet . for the city's sewage-pumping station. Besides these frontages, the undeveloped frontages consisting of 11,900 linear feet between Gies- boro Point and Shepherds Landing, D. C., and 37,000 linear feet between Rosslyn and Alexandria on the Virginia side of the river, are susceptible of development and use for commerce when desired. The waterway is tidal, the mean range being 3 feet. , Below Wash- ington, D.C., the Potomac River is a broad body of water having the controlling depth of 23 feet at mean low water. The plan of the improvement is for securing depths of 20 feet at mean low water in the Virginia and Washington Channels, and 15 to 20 feet deep in Anacostia River Channel, with a least width of 400 feet. The projects have been completed and the waterways are under maintenance by the United States. The entire commerce entering this port passes over the improve- ment, about 50 per cent of it is dependent on the increased depth and width and the other 50 per cent needs only a 12-foot depth. The freight and passenger steamers now having their termini at Washington are: Two daily lines to Norfolk, Va.; one semiweekly line to Baltimore, Md., and two semiweekly lines to lower points on Potomac River. Navy craft, tramp steamers, sailing vessels, and tugs, with scows and barges, also make use of this waterway. The yearly tonnage, amounting to about 1,100,000 tons, valued at $26,000,000, consists of sand, gravel and stone, lumber and other wood products, coal, kerosene and gasoline, naval ordnance, powder, apparatus and supplies, general merchandise, etc. 699 700 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The water frontages available for commerce, as stated above, are: Four thousand linear feet in the Virginia Channel (Georgetown); 5,440 linear feet in the Washington Channel, and 10,000 linear feet in Anacostia Channel. Of these frontages about 2,300 linear feet in Virginia Channel consists of broken down and disused wharves, now in use for storage of all kinds of miscellaneous articles and refuse heaps having no connection with commerce on the waterway; about 2,500 linear feet in the Washington Channel are used for storage of firewood, small pleasure boats, and miscellaneous articles and are not used for the legitimate purposes of commerce; about 8,500 linear feet in the Anacostia Channel is undeveloped and not in use for com- merce. The results are that at present these vast frontages are utilized for legitimate water-borne commerce purposes only to the extent of about 1,700, 2,900, and 1,500 linear feet, respectively, in the Virginia, Washington, and Anacostia Channels, and the whole water- front presents a most dilapidated and unsightly appearance. The irrelevant use of the water front should be discontinued, the storage and junk heaps moved and cleaned up, and suitable terminals provided. There is no port administration nor port charge. The United States owns practically the whole water front and no measures have yet been taken to improve it. The waterway is used for shipments of all kinds to points reached by the various freight and passenger steamers as they give more expeditious deliveries than rail lines. Bulky materials go and come in vessels, barges, scows, etc. Rail and water connections exist at several docks in the Virginia Channel; the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad has trackage along this whole front- age, making it an easy matter to increase these connections when desired. Rail and water connections with all the railroads entering Washington may be established on the 5,900 linear feet frontage on the Anacostia Channel, between the navy yard and Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington Railroad bridge, when desired. Coal, sand and gravel, in small amounts, are about the only articles that are. now routed over rail-water lines. 2. POTOMAC RIVER AT ALEXANDRIA, VA. Alexandria, Va., with a population of about 20,000 is located on the right bank of the Potomac River, 5 miles below Washington, D. C. The waterway outside of the pierhead lines lies within the boundaries of the District of Columbia. This port has 9,100 feet water frontage of which 2,300 feet are utilized by war emergency shipyards, 2,900 feet are undeveloped and 3,900 feet are developed and used as a commercial front. The mean tidal range is 3 feet. The width of waterway of 24 feet or greater depth in front of Alex- andria is 1,100 feet. Below Alexandria the Potomac is a broad body of water having a controlling depth of 23 feet at mean low water. The plan of the improvement calls for dredging the shoal between the main channel and the pierhead line to 24 feet deep at mean low water. This shoal, before improvement, extended along the upper 6,700 feet of frontage, varying in width from 50 feet to 400 feet and in depth from 8 feet to 20 feet. The project was completed in De- cember, 1912, and since then the waterway has been under main- tenance by the United States. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 701 The entire commerce entering this port passes over the improve- ment and at present an 18-foot depth is all that is required. The freight and passenger steamers plying the river touch in at wharves at Alexandria. At present there are two daily lines to Norfolk, Va.; one semiweekly line to Baltimore, Md., and two semiweekly lines to lower points on Potomac River. Tramp steamers, sailboats, and tugs with Scows and barges also make use of this port. The yearly tonnage amounting to about 108,000 tons valued at $3,168,000 con- sists of sand and gravel, coal, lumber, and other wood products, phosphate rock and fertilizers, general merchandise, etc. The terminal facilities at Alexandria appear to be adequate for the requirements of present commerce and ºthere is 2,900 feet for future expansion and development when desired. There is no port administration nor port charge. There is no terminal owned or controlled by the public. At least one should be provided. Little interest is shown in the improvement of terminals as they appear to be adequate. The waterway is used for shipments of all kinds to points reached by the various freight and passenger steamers as they give more expeditious deliveries than rail lines. Bulky materials go and come in vessels, barges, scows, etc. Rail and water connections exist at several wharves and are available along the whole frontage. Coal, sand, and gravel are about the only arti- cles that are now routed over rail-water lines and they are handled in small amounts. - - 3. OCCOQUAN CREEK, VA. Occoquan Creek is formed by the junction of Bull and Broad Runs at about 5 miles southeast of Manassas, Va., and empties in Potomac River at about 28 miles below Washington, D. C. The section under improvement is the tidal portion of the waterway extending from the mouth 6 miles upstream to the town of Occoquan located on its left bank. The fall line crosses the waterway just above Occoquan and consequently navigation ceases there. The average width below Occoquan is about one-half mile. Tidal mean range is 2 feet. The plan of the improvement is for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water, 100 feet wide for 3 miles below Occoquan and 150 feet wide thence to the mouth to be obtained by dredging and contraction work. The project was completed in 1911 and since then the water- way has been under maintenance by the United States. The entire commerce passes over the improved section and is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by the im- provement. Small sailing vessels and tugs towing barges or scows are used on this waterway. The yearly tonnage, amounting to about 34,000 tons valued at about $260,000 consists of coal, stone, manure, piles, lumber, cement, lime, and railroad ties. The workhouse main- tained by the municipal government of the District of Columbia on the right bank opposite the town of Occoquan is the principal user of the waterway. There are 10 wharves or landings on Occoquan Creek. These facilities are sufficient for the requirements of present and prospective COIIllſſler'Cé. There is no port administration nor port charge. There is no terminal owned or controlled by the public nor is one required at the present time. But little interest is shown in improvement of existing 702 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. terminals as they are adequate. Every effort is made to use the waterway to the fullest extent. All bulky materials originating in or destined for the locality are shipped by water. No connection between rail and water exists. The Washington Southern Railroad crosses the waterway at Woodbridge, 1 mile below. Occoquan, where a rail-water connection can be made whenever desirable. 4. AQUIA CREEK, VA. Aquia Creek rises in Virginia, flows in a southeasterly direction for about 17 miles, and empties into the Potomac River about 43 miles below Washington, D. C. The section under improvement is tidal, extending from the mouth 6 miles inland to Coal Landing located on its right bank. The average width is about one-half mile. The mean tidal range is 1.6 feet. The plan of the improvement is for a channel 6 feet deep at mean low water and 60 feet to 100 feet wide to be obtained by dredging. The ºject was completed in 1914 and since then has been main- tained. The entire commerce passes over the improved channel and is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by the im- provement. Small sailing vessels and tugs towing barges or scows are used on this waterway. The yearly tonnage, amounting to about 10,000 tons valued at about $90,000, consists of lumber, iron pyrites, cordwood, pulp wood, coal, and railroad ties. Coal Landing is the principal terminal, and there are two wharves located at this place. In addition to these there are four unimproved landings, used intermittently by shippers of cordwood, pulp wood, and railroad ties; at these landings vessels are loaded from the natural shore by use of trestles or boat staging. These facilities are sufficient for the requirements of present and prospective commerce. The waterway passes through a rural district. There are no cities, towns, or villages on its banks. There is no port administration nor port charge. There is no terminal owned or controlled by the public. One should be provided. But little interest is shown in improve- ment of existing terminals. Every effort is made to use the water- way to the fullest extent. All bulky materials originating in or " destined for the locality are shipped by water. No connection be- tween rail and water exists. The Washington Southern Railroad crosses the waterway about 1% miles below Coal Landing, where a rail-water connection can be made whenever desirable. 5. POTOMAC RIVER AT LOWER CEDAR POINT, M.D. Lower Cedar Point, Md., is a narrow neck of land jutting out into the Potomac River 62 miles below Washington, D. C. Morgantown Wharf, located on its southerly side, serves as a port for the adjoining country. The mean tidal range is 1.8 feet. The plan of the improvement is for a dredged channel from deep water in the Potomac to Morgantown Wharf, 10 feet deep by 150 feet wide, with a turning basin at the wharf of the same depth, 300 feet wide and 400 feet long. The project was completed in 1911 and since then has been maintained. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 703 The entire commerce passes over the improved channel and is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by the im- Fº Freight and passenger steamers of the Washington & altimore line and of the Potomac River line and steam and gaso- line tenders of the United States Navy Department use this water- way as an approach to Morgantown Wharf. The yearly tonnage, amounting to about 2,500 tons, valued at about $124,000, consists of general merchandise, lumber, building materials, fertilizers, farm produce, cordwood, and live stock. At present the United States Navy Department is the principal user of Morgantown Wharf and the improved channel in connection with the work of the new naval proving grounds across the river at Upper Machodoc Creek, Va. The Morgantown Wharf is the only terminal affected by the improvement and its facilities are sufficient for the requirements of present and prospective commerce. The locality is a rural district connected with improved roads, one of which leads to Washington, D. C. There is no port administra- tion nor port charge. There is no terminal owned or controlled by the public nor is one required at the present time. But little interest is shown in the improvement of the existing terminal, as it appears to be adequate. Every effort is made to use the waterway to the fullest extent, as the only other means of traffic is over the highways. All bulky materials originating in or destined for the locality, are shipped by water. No connection between rail and water exists. The nearest railroad is about 20 miles away. - 6. NOMINI CREEK, VA. Nomini Creek rises in Westmoreland County, Va., and flows in a northerly direction for about 13 miles and empties into Potomac River about 80 miles below Washington, D. C. The section under improvement is over the bar at its mouth and extending inland about 14 miles. The waterway is navigable about 6 miles inland, all of which is tidal, the mean range being 1.8 feet. * . . The plan for improvement is for a channel 9 feet deep and 150 feet wide, to be obtained by dredging and the construction of a jetty at the entrance. The project was completed in November, 1911, and since then has been maintained. The entire commerce passes over the improved section and is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by the im– provement. The freight and passenger steamers of the Potomac River line make semiweekly trips over the waterway. It is used also by small sailing vessels, tugboats, scows, and barges. The yearly tonnage, amounting to about 26,000 tons, valued at about $427,000, consists of lumber and other wood products, fish, oysters, general merchandise, and farm produce. There are six wharves or landings in Nomini Creek. These facili- ties are sufficient for the requirements of present and prospective COIOIOGI*Cé. The waterway passes through a rural district. There are no cities, towns, or villages on its banks. There is no port administra- tion nor port charge. There is no terminal owned or controlled by the public, nor is one required at the present time. Every effort is 704 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. made to use the waterway to the fullest extent, as the only other means of traffic is over unimproved highways. All bulky materials originating in or destined for the locality are shipped by water. No connection between rail and water exists. The nearest railroad is about 35 miles away. 7. RAPPAHANNOCK RIVER, VA. Rappahannock River rises in Virginia, flows in a southeasterly direction for about 212 miles and empties into Chesapeake Bay at a point about 40 miles above Fortress Monroe. The section under improvement is tidal and extends from Tappahannock, Va., to Fredericksburg, Va., a distance of 65 miles. From Tappahannock to its mouth the waterway is deep and averages 1% miles wide. The average width between Tappahannock and Fredericksburg is about one-half mile. The fall line crosses the waterway 3 miles above Fredericksburg, and consequently navigation ceases there. The mean tidal range at Tappahannock and Fredericksburg is, respec- tively, 1.6 feet and 2.8 feet. The plan of the improvement is for a channel 12 feet, deep at mean low water, 100 feet wide to Port Royal, and 200 feet wide from there to Tappahannock, to be secured by dredging and contraction works. The pºet was completed in 1910 and since then has been main- tained. The entire commerce of the improved section passes over the im- proved channel and is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by the improvement. Freight and passenger steamers belonging to the Maryland, Delaware & Virginia Railway Co. use this waterway. These steamers make daily trips to Tappahannock and semiweekly trips to Fredericksburg. Barges and scows in tow of tugs and sailing vessels also are used on this waterway. The yearly tonnage over the improved section, amounting to about 70,000 tons, valued at about $3,000,000, consists of lumber and other wood products, farm produce, oysters and fish, canned goods, and general merchandise. The city of Fredericksburg reaps the greatest benefit from the improvement. - Fredericksburg with a population of about 6,000, Port Royal, population about 300, and Tappahannock, population about 600, are the principal terminals on the waterway. There are about 15 pile-structure wharves on this waterway between Tappahannock and Chesapeake Bay at which the daily steamer touches. The ter- minal facilities on this waterway appear to be adequate for the requirements of present and prospective commerce. There is no port administration nor port charge. There is no ter- minal owned or controlled by the public nor is one at present required. Little interest is shown in the improvement of existing terminals, as they appear to be adequate. Every effort is made to use the water- way to the fullest extent. All bulky materials originating in or des– tined for the locality are shipped by water. No connection between rail and water exists. The Washington Southern Railroad crosses the waterway at Fredericksburg, where a rail-water connection may be made whenever desirable. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 705 8. URBANNA CREEK, VA. Urbanna Creek rises in Virginia, flows in an easterly direction for about 5 miles, and enters Rappahannock River at about 18 miles from Chesapeake Bay. The section under improvement is tidal, extending from the Rappahannock River inland about a mile to Burton's wharf, located on the left bank in the town of Urbanna. The average width of the waterway is about 400 yards. Navigation of 6-foot draft extends upstream about 2 miles above Burton’s wharf. The mean tidal range is 1.5 feet. - F3 The plan of the improvement is for a channel 10 feet deep at mean low water, and 150 feet wide from the mouth to Burton's wharf, and a turning basin of same depth and 450 feet wide at Burtons, to be secured by dredging and construction of a stone jetty. The project was completed in January, 1914, and since then has been maintained. The entire commerce entering the creek passes over the improved section and is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by the improvement. The freight and passenger steamers belonging to the Maryland, Delaware & Virginia Railway Co. can reach Bur- tons, and landings are made by them there two days per week from Baltimore and one day per week from Norfolk, while daily landings are made by them in Rappahannock River at West Urbanna wharf, which is about 2 miles from Urbanna. Besides these steamers, small sailing vessels, barges, and scows in tow of tugs enter the waterway to discharge or take on cargoes. The yearly tonnage, amounting to about 17,000 tons, valued at about $400,000, consists of lumber and other wood products, fish and oysters, general merchandise, farm produce, etc. - The town of Urbanna, of about 500 population, located on the left bank about 1 mile from the entrance, derives the most benefit from the improvement. This town has two important wharves. There are several small wharves located on the water front of the town used for private purposes and of no commercial importance. There are several shore landings from one-half to 2 miles above the town, where dee water approaches the bank and which are intermittently used by craft for embarking lumber. These facilities are adequate for the present and prospective needs of commerce. There is no port administration nor port charge. There is no ter— minal owned or controlled by the public, nor is one needed at the present time. Every effort is made to use the waterway to the fullest extent, as the only other means of traffic is over the unimproved roads. All bulky materials originating in or destined for the locality are shipped by water. No connection between rail and water exists. The nearest railroad is at West Point, Va., about 20 miles away. 9. HARBOR AT MILFORD HAVEN, VA. The harbor in Milford Haven is a part of Chesapeake Bay located in Mathews County, Va., about 35 miles north of Fortress Monroe. It is about 4 miles long, one-half mile wide, and from 8 to 15 feet deep. The mean tidal range is 1.3 feet. The plan of the improvement is for a channel 200 feet wide and 10 feet deep at mean low water through the bar at the entrance, about 1,000 feet long and through the bar between Cricket Hill and Callis, 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—45 706 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. about 700 feet long, to be obtained and maintained by dredging and the construction of a stone jetty. The project was completed in 1910 and since then has been maintained. The entire commerce passes over the improved channel and is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by the im- provement. Freight and passenger steamers owned by the Balti- more, Chesapeake & Atlantic Railway Co. ply between this locality and Baltimore, making two trips a week. Tugboats with tows of barges and sailing vessels also are used on this waterway. The waterway is also used as a harbor of refuge by all craft of 10-foot draft or under during stormy weather. The yearly tonnage, amount- ing to about 5,633 tons, valued at about $426,000, consists of piles, fish and oysters, farm produce, and general merchandise. There are three pile wharves in the harbor. Besides these there are about four insignificant landings, natural earth, used intermit- tently for logging, etc. These facilities are sufficient for the require- ments of present and prospective commerce. The harbor is surrounded by a rural district. There are no cities, towns, or villages on its banks. There is no port administration nor port charge. There is no terminal owned or controlled by the public, nor is one required at the present time. But little interest is shown in improvement of existing terminals, as they appear to be adequate. Every effort is made to use the waterway to the fullest extent, as the only other means of traffic is over unimproved highways. Practi- cally everything entering or leaving the locality is shipped by water. No connection between rail and water exists. The nearest railroad is at Fortress Monroe, 35 miles away and with large bodies of water intervening. 10. MATTAPONI RIVER, WA. Mattaponi River rises in Virginia, flows in a southeasterly direc- tion for about 120 miles, and empties into the York River at West Point, Va. The section under improvement is the upper 11 miles of the tidal portion extending from . Dunkirk to 2 miles above Walkerton, Va. The average width of the improved section is 400 feet. Dunkirk, Aylett, and Walkerton are, respectively, 41, 38, and 28 miles above its mouth at West Point, Va. The waterway from Walkerton to West Point will average about 2,000 feet wide between banks and about 300 feet wide for a channel at least 8 feet deep at mean low water. Mean tidal ranges are at Aylett, Walkerton, and West Point 4.5 feet, 3.9 feet, and 2.9 feet, respectively. - The plan of the improvement is for a jº 5% feet deep at mean low water and 75 feet wide, to be provided and º dredg-. ing and contraction works and for removing Snags, overhanging trees, and keeping the waterway free of such obstructions. The dredging and contraction project at present is confined between 2 and 5% miles above Walkerton, Pointers Landing being the terminus. The snagging project has its terminus at Dunkirk. The waterway has been snagged from time to time and the channel has been dredged 50 feet wide. Funds are available for the completion of the project. The commerce passing over the improved section is dependent on the increased width and depth afforded by improvement. Small sailing vessels and tugs towing barges or scows are used on this WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 707 waterway. The yearly tonnage over the improved section amounts to about 17,000 tons, valued at about $270,000, consisting of lumber and other wood products, farm produce, fertilizer, and general merchandise. - Pointers Wharf is the principal terminal in the improved section. The Virginia Steam Navigation Co.'s freight and passenger steamer makes two trips a week to this wharf. In addition there are two other landings in the dredged section. In the portion of water- way above the dredging project, where only snagging operations are done, eight wharves or landings exist. There are numerous natural sites, where deep water approaches the banks, which are used inter- mittently for landings. In the deep portion of waterway below Walkerton, where no improvement has been made, there are about 25 wharves or landings, pile structures or cribbing, or natural earth bank. Some are used by the steamer and some by vessel, barge, or scow. It is believed that the terminal facilities are sufficient for the requirements of the present and prospective commerce. The improved portion of the waterway passes through a rural district. There are no cities, towns, or º on its banks. There is no port administration nor port charge. There are four landings ºf or controlled by the public. Another should be provided near Pointers Wharf. Every effort is made to use the waterway to the fullest extent, as the only other means of traffic is over unimproved highways. All bulky materials originating in or destined for the locality are shipped by water. No connection between rail and water exists. The nearest railroad is about 15 miles away. - 11. PAMUNKEY RIVER, WA. Pamunkey River rises in Virginia, flows in a southeasterly direc- tion for about 130 miles, and empties into the York River at West Point, Va. The section under improvement is tidal, and extends from Oakspring Landing to Bassett Ferry, a distance of 10% miles. Oakspring Danding, and Bassett Ferry are 383 and 49% miles, re- spectively, above the mouth. Snagging operations are carried to New Castle Ferry, which is about 3 miles above Bassett Ferry. The average width is about 150 yards. The mean tidal range is 4 feet. The waterway from Oakspring Landing to mouth has not been im- proved; its controlling depth is 8% feet and its width will average about 400 yards. - The plan of the improvement is for securing a channel 7 feet deep at mean low water and 100 feet wide, and for removing and keeping the waterway free of wrecks, snags, and overhanging trees. The channel is to be obtained by dredging and contraction works. The project was completed on August 17, 1912, and since then has been maintained by the United States. The commerce passing over the improved section, consists of lumber and wood products, amounting to about 10,000 to 12,000 tons per year, and is valued at about $100,000. , Small sailing vessels, barges, and scows towed by tugs are used on this waterway. Tyler Landing, located about 1% miles below Bassett Ferry, is practically the terminus of boating. There is not an average of one boat a year between Tylers and New Castle Ferry and no boats go above New Castle Ferry. 708 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. There are no wharves existing in the improved section. Landings and loadings are made along the banks where deep water is available. There are about six of such landing places used intermittently by boats taking on cargoes of lumber and other wood products or dis- charging cargoes of fertilizer and lime used on the farms. These landings have no mechanical devices to facilitate handling of cargoes. Staging is used for a connection between boat and shore, and cargoes are handled by labor. These landings are approached by unimproved dirt roads. Considered as terminal points, they are of such insignifi- cant importance that they are not listed. These facilities appear to be sufficient for the requirements of present and prospective com- merce. In the section of waterway below Oakspring Landing, which is not under improvement or maintenance, there are about 20 wharves or landings. The one used by the Southern Railway at West Point, Va., a rail and water connection with the Chesapeake Steamship Co., is the only one of any importance. There is no regular line of † and passenger boats running on this waterway above West oint. - The section of waterway under improvement, passes through a rural district. There are no cities, towns, or villages on its banks. There is no port administration nor port charge. There is no terminal owned or controlled by the public, nor is one required under present commerce conditions. Little or no interest is shown in improvement of existing terminals, as they are adequate. No connection between rail and water exists, nor is one required. 3.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. NORFOLK, VA., DISTRICT. COL. J. C. OAKES, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. NORFOLK HARBOR, VA. Norfolk Harbor is situated 30 miles above the entrance to Chesa- peake Bay at Cape Charles and Cape Henry, 187 miles south of Balti- more, Md. . It includes the Elizabeth River, a tidal estuary, and certain portions of its branches known as the Eastern, Southern, and Western Branches. The total length of dockage in Norfolk Harbor is about 120,000 linear feet, of which about 43 per cent is owned or controlled by railroad and steamship companies for terminals, for the handling of coal, freight and passenger traffic and storage; 37 per cent for ship- ment and receipt of various commodities, storage purposes, ship- building and repairing, and other manufacturing and commercial enterprises; 19 per cent owned or leased by the Federal Government and 1 per cent owned by the city of Norfolk. With the exception of the Army supply base piers and parts of some of the wharves of the United States Navy Department, which are of concrete, and a few piers owned by corporations which are partly of steel construction, all the piers and j. are constructed of piling and timber and are of solid filled bulkhead or open-pile construction. The project for improving Norfolk Harbor provides for a main chºol. 40 feet deep at mean low water, 750 feet wide from Hampton Roads to the mouth of the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River, and 450 feet wide up this branch to the Belt Line bridge, a distance of 11.75 miles, except that in front of the navy yard the channel may be made 35 feet deep, for a width of 600 to 800 feet; thence 25 feet deep, 300 feet wide, and 1.5 miles long from the Belt Line bridge to a Fº 1,000 feet above the Virginian Railway bridge, and thence 22 eet deep, 200 feet wide, and 2 miles long to the Norfolk & Western Railway bridge, making a total distance of 15.25 miles; a channel in the Eastern Branch, 25 feet deep at mean low water, 500 feet wide, and 1 mile long from the mouth to the Norfolk & Western Railway bridge, thence 22 feet deep, 500 feet wide, and one-half mile long to the Campostella Bridge; a channel in the Western Branch, 1 mile long, 24 feet deep at mean low water, 300 feet wide from the 30-foot contour at the mouth to the first curve, and thence 200 feet wide to the first bridge, with a further widening on the north side of the entrance to a depth of 16 feet; and an anchorage area on the west side of the main channel near Lamberts Point of 64 acres, 35 feet deep at mean low water, and another of 45 acres, 12 feet in depth, near Pinners Point. The mean tidal range is 2.7 feet, and the extreme 3 feet. Improvement work on Thimble Shoal in Chesapeake Bay is 736 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 737 also provided for by a project under which there is to be constructed a channel 750 feet wide and 40 feet deep. Work is in progress under both of the above projects. § ... During 1918, the commerce of Norfolk Harbor, including tonnages of vessels in transit calling at the port for supplies or for other reasons, amounted to 31,953,843 short tons. The chief articles of commerce include, bituminous coal, fertilizer material, cotton, cot– ton goods, forest products, and general merchandise. All classes of vessels are engaged in the commerce of the port, a large proportion of which are steamships drawing 25 to 32 feet. Eight trunk railway lines have terminals on the harbor, viz, Norfolk & Western; Southern Railway; the Virginian; Atlantic Coast Line; Seahoard Air Line; Norfolk Southern; New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk; and Chesa- peake & Ohio. All of the terminals of the above roads except the last named are linked together by the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railroad. The Chesapeake & Ohio terminal has car-ferry service with its own terminal at Newport News, Va., and is connected by car ferry and spur line with all other railroad terminals at Norfolk. The Belt Line is owned equally by the eight local railroads, and forms an integral part of ... It has spur-line connections with all of the railroad terminals and with nearly all of the industrial plants at and in the vicinity of Norfolk. It is operated as an iº. and industrial railway. Switching charges between it and competitive rail points are absorbed. The Norfolk & Western Railway has three terminals; One for bituminous coal and foreign merchandise traffic at Lamberts Point, one for coastwise traffic at Boissevain Avenue, and one for local coal and merchandise traffic at the eastern end of Main Street. The Virginian Railway has two terminals, viz, a coal pier at Sewalls Point and a merchandise pier on the Southern Branch. Each of the remaining roads has one large terminal and a wharf or pier for local traffic. With the exception of the coal piers and the piers of the Boissevain Avenue terminal, none is of modern design or is properly equipped with appliances for rapid and economical transfer of freight between rail and water. Practically all of the foreign merchandise traffic in the past has been carried on at the Lamberts Point piers and Pier 4 of the Southern Railway at Pinners Point. The latter was used by the Navy Department during hostilities with the Central Powers and is still in use by that department. The piers of the fol- lowing steamship lines are used in coastwise and internal traffic: Old Dominion Steamship Co.", Merchants & Miners' Transportation Co., Clyde Steamship Co.", Norfolk & Washington sº Co., Baltimore Steam Packet Co., and Washington Southern Navigation Co." The Virginia Navigation Co. steamer," plying on James River, uses a pier of the Old Dominion Steamship Co., and the boats of the Chesapeake Steamship Co. use the Southern Railway wharf at the end ºp Jackson Street. With the exception of one pier of the Old Dominion Steamship Co., none of the piers of the steamship terminals has appliances for rapid transfer of freight. Taken collectively, the steamer piers are barely adequate for present demands and would be inadequate for any material increase in traffic. There are no port charges for Norfolk Harbor. The port is under the jurisdiction of a 1 Discontinued since this report was written. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—47 738 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. board of harbor commissioners. The latest regulations for the gov- ernment of the port and the acts of the State legislature pertinent to the harbor are as follows: REGULATIONs ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF HARBOR COMMISSIONERS OF NORFOLK, PoRTSMOUTH, AND NORFOLK COUNTY. 1. Duties of harbor masters. 2. Harbor commissioners' rules and regulations. 3. State law creating a board of harbor commissioners for Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Norfolk County. HARBOR MASTERS’ DUTIES, NORFOLK, VA., 1916. 1. They are charged with general and specific duties as defined in the rules, regu- lations, and orders of the commissioners, which have been or may be from time to time promulgated. 2. Their jurisdiction is concurrent over the harbor of Norfolk and Portsmouth and Norfolk County. 3. They are vested with authority to designate the anchorage grounds of all vessels, and are required to keep the channel way and track of steamers clear. 4. It is their duty to berth vessels at appropriate wharves and docks; and when called upon by the proprietor or occupant of any wharf or dock to change the berth of any vessel lying at such occupant’s premises, it is made their duty to move such vessel to some other wharf, or to a safe anchorage in the stream. 5. They are charged with the execution of the police regulations which have been or may hereafter be adopted for the better government of the harbor, and will report all delinquents and offenders to the committee on harbor police. 6. The harbor masters must see that the regulations forbidding vessels from anchor- ing in or obstructing the channel way, and all other regulations herein contained are strictly observed, and in so doing they may board any vessel, speak her, or adopt any course that they may, in their discretion, deem best to carry out this object. 7. They are required to see that the regulations of the United States Government requiring fog horns to be blown, or ships’ bells rung, by all vessels anchored within the harbor during the prevalence of fog, are strictly conformed to, and will report all delinquents to the committee on harbor police. 1: EGULATIONS REQUIRED TO BE OBSERVED IN THE WATERS UNDER THE JURISDICTION O OF THE BOARD. JUNE 1, 1916. Resolved, That the following rules and regulations be observed in the waters under the jurisdiction of this board, to go into effect June 1, 1916, and that all other rules inconsistent with the same and not contained herein be repealed: 1. Wessels having gunpowder, dynamite, nitroglycerin, or other high explosives on board shall anchor under the direction of the harbor master and shall keep a red flag flying during the day and a red light at night while receiving or discharging powder, dynamite, nitroglycerin, or other high explosives. 2. The handling of powder, dynamite, nitroglycerin, or other explosives to and from vessels in the harbor must be under the supervision of a harbor master, whose duty it is to see that every precaution against danger of ignition and explosion is adopted and rigidly observed. wº 3. All vessels at the end of wharves or in docks shall, when required, haul either way to accommodate vessels going in or coming out from such wharves or docks. They shall not occupy regular steamers’ or sailing packets' berths, without permission from the recognized occupants of such wharves and docks. They are required to rig in all fore and aft spars, have boats hoisted up under the bow, and davits turned up, as the harbor master may direct. 4. Wessels when not engaged in loading or discharging cargo shall give place to such vessels as are ready to receive or deliver freights. If the captain or person in charge of any vessel refuse to move such vessel when notified by the occupants of the wharf at which she is lying, the harbor master shall order him to haul to some other berth or in the stream, and should the captain or person in charge refuse to obey the orders of the harbor master, then the harbor master shall himself move the vessel at the owner's expense, by the use of steam tug if necessary. 5. Vessels entering the harbor and intending to come to anchor or dropping out from wharves or docks preparatory to departure must anchor under direction of a harbor master and are forbidden to anchor in the channel.

All vessels, boats, and lighters ovel 10 tons burden shall have at all times a shipkeeper on board, and all such are required to move whenever ordered to do so by a harbor master, and no vessel, boat, or lighter shall anchor at or make fast to any wharf so as in any way to obstruct the passage of any regular ferryboat. 7. Whenever a harbor master shall require the Services of a tug to enforce an older for the removal of a vessel against the will of the master, the charges of the tug, for such services, may be guaranteed to be paid by the board; but it shall ho the duty of the harbor master to collect the costs, fines, and ees for Such removal from the offending vessel in the manner provided by law. The harbor masters will see that due notice of this section is served on the masters of all vessels. - 8. All vessels entering or leaving the harbor w ben approaching the Virginian piers near Sewalls Point sh: 'll reduce their speed at a distance of not less than 500 feet from the Virginian Railway piers, so as to do no dańlage. - After passing the above piers they may increase their speed, using caution in passing tows and dredges. This applies to all wharves and docks along the water front. Any vessel violating this rule will be held responsible for any damage done thereby. 9. Nothing in these rules and regulations fixing the maximum speed permitted to vessels of the various classes shall be construed as exonerating any master or other officer in command of steamers from the use of all necessary Care in so regulating the speed of their steamers to a lesser rate than is specified in said rules and regulations, so that no damage will result from the passage of their steamers to any vessel or craft of any sort or kind under way, anchored, or made fast to wharves or docks in Said harbor within the limits prescribed by said rules and regulations. 10. The master or commander of any such vessel who shall enter or depart from said harbor within the above limits at a greater speed than here prescribed shall forfeit and pay a fine of $50 for each and every offense, one-half the fine to go to the informer and the remaining half to go to the commissioner's fund for defraying expenses. 11. This order, so far as relates to the speed of steamers, is not intended to apply to regular ferry steamers. While this restriction as to the speed of steamers does not apply to ferryboats, it is understood and so ordered that the said ferryboats, owners or managers, shall be required so to sheathe the piles in their docks as to prevent the waves from damaging contiguous property. 12. The harbor masters have full authority, and they are hereby required so to regu- late the manner in which a vessel shall lie at any of the wharves, that the facilities for discharging and receiving cargoes may be afforded as generally as may be practicable and as will best promote the public interest. Any person having charge of any vessel who shall refuse or neglect to obey the harbor master in carrying out this Section shall forfeit and pay a fine of $5 for each and every offense, . 13. No person in charge of any ship or vessel shall permit any fire to be kept on the deck thereof while lying at any wharf or dock within the harbor, between the hours of 10 o’clock at night and 5 o'clock in the morning from the 1st of April to the 1st of October, and between the hours of 9 o'clock at Flight and 6 o'clock in the morning, from the 1st of October to the 1st of April. Anyone offending against this Section shall forfeit and pay a fine of $20 for each and every offense. 14. Stone, ballast, sand, manure, oyster shell, ashes, or dirt of any kind whatsoever shall not be taken on board or landed ‘:om any vessel lying at a public or private wharf, under a penalty of $20, unless the master of such vessel first obtain the written per- mission of a harbor master. The harbor masters are required before granting permis- sion as aforesaid, to see that the master of such vessel has taken all necessary precau- #. to prevent injury to the navigation of the harbor by any such articles falling therein. - 15. If any person shall cast or throw any ballast, dirt, ashes, oyster shells, filth, or trash into the water in any part of the harbor of Norfolk or Portsmouth, or on the shores of said harbor below high water mark, unless for the purpose of making a wharf, after permission obtained for same, and which wharf shall be sufficiently inclosed and Secured so as to prevent injury to navigation, such person so offending shall forfeit and pay for every offense not less than $20 nor hore than $50, one-half to the informer and the remaining half to the commissioner's fund. 16. If any vessel shall be lying in any dock, or at the entrance thereof, so as to obstruct any vessel that shall be coming into the same, the vessel so obstructing, unless actually engaged in loading or unloading, and then if deemed expedient by the harbor master, shall be removed to such place as shall be necessary to give room to the passing vessel, under a penalty at the rate of $5 per hour for the delay which shall be occasioned to the passing vessel, unless in cases where some unavoidable casualty or accident may make it impracticable to remove such obstructing vessel. 740 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 17. It shall be the duty of the captain or other person having in charge any vessel lying at any of the wharves or docks to top the yards, rig in the jib booms, and place the anchor or anchors on the deck of such vessel whenever required to.do so by the harbor master, or the occupant of any wharf or his agent, and any person having charge of any vessel who shall neglect or refuse to obey the directions aforesaid shall forfeit and pay a fine of $5 for each and every offense. 18. No ballast of any kind shall be landed on any wharf or dock in the harbor, except by permission and under the supervision of the harbor masters, who are directed to see that every precaution is observed to prevent its falling into the water. Anyone offending against this section shall forfeit and pay a fine not less than $5 nor more than $20. No tows exceeding 700 feet in length shall enter or depart from the harbor, under a penalty of $20 fine. 19. No pitch, tar, or other inflammable matter shall be heated on board any vessel lying at any wharf or dock in the harbor; but the same may be done on a floating stage or lighter, Penalty, $5 for every offense. -- - 20. Vessels whose draft of water will admit of loading on the flats out of the way of passing steamers will be permitted so to load, but no vessel whose draft of water when loaded is over 8 feet will be allowed to load in the stream, except in cases of emergency, and then only by special permission from the harbor commissioners. 21. Shooting from the deck of any vessel or boat within the harbor is positively prohibited. Any violation of this order will subject the party so offending to a fine of $5. 22. Should any steamer plying in this harbor use wood as fuel, “spark catcher” or some other effectual spark extinguisher must be attached to the smokestacks of all such steamers, so as to prevent the escape of burning flakes. A nonobservance of this section will subject the offending steamers and owners to a fine of $20 for each and every offense, and to full damages for any loss that may be sustained by fire traceable to any such steamers using wood for fuel. 23. Whenever it becomes necessary to use a conveyance or to incur any expense in visiting localities with a view to defining lines for the construction of wharves or other improvements, such expense shall be borne by the parties making application for permits for whose benefit the lines are to be defined. 24. Piles, painted red, have been driven along certain sections of the unimproved water front of the harbor to mark the established port warden lines. Similarly painted piles will be driven in all the unimproved sections as soon as port warden and limiting lines are decided upon for those sections. Masters of all classes of craft, and all other persons are forbidden from making fast to these piles, or to disturb them in any way under a penalty of $10 for every offense. 25. Any person violating any rule or regulation herein contained or disobeying any lawful order of a harbor master, for which no penalty is specifically provided, shall be fined not less than $5 nor more than $20, one half to go to the informer and the other half to the commissioner's fund. 26. The office of the harbor masters shall be opened at 9 o'clock a. m. daily. The closing hours shall be 5 o'clock p.m. from October 1 to April 1 and 6 o'clock p.m. from April 1 to October 1. º º - One of the harbor masters shall be on duty in the office during these hours to answer calls, give information, and attend to the duties of the office generally. Harbor masters will report each morning at 9 o'clock at the office of the board of harbor commissioners. . If there is anything to communicate to the board, the presi- 3. will receive it and impart to the harbor masters anything which the board may €SIT e. 27. There shall be kept at the office of the harbor commissioners, a book, to be called the log book, and each harbor master will enter in this book the transactions of the day before, viz, number and character of vessels he has boarded, where from and where bound, cargo and tonnage, and all complaints made to him of any nature involving the business of the board of harbor commissioners. If there be reason why any harbor master can not, upon any day, comply with this fºal order, and does not do so, such harbor master will note such reason on the , OOOK. One of the harbor masters will keep the office each week, or month, as they may themselves so fix, and must be on hand to receive calls and messages. He will note the time of receipt of each message, from whom received, its character, on log book, the name of the harbor master who responded to the call, and the time he responded. 28. All vessels loading cotton for any foreign port at any dock in this harbor shall have spark arresters on their smokestacks at all times and shall keep the ventilators leading into their holds covered with canvas and plugged; also they shall have one barrel and two buckets at each hatch, the barrels to be kept filled with water until the vessel is loaded. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 74.1 29. All high-pressure steamers navigating this harbor will be required to have spark arresters on their Smokestacks at all times whether under way or not; this rule applies to stacks on donkey boilers used on vessels as well as to stacks of steamers. Failure to comply with this rule will make the party so offending liable to a fine of $20 for each offense. 30. There shall be two daily inspections up and down the harbor by the harbor boat. 31. The harbor masters shall be vigilant to see that no obstructions or improvements are placed in the waters under the jurisdiction of the board until a permit has been i. and shall report promptly any violations of the rules or regulations of the O3.I'Cl. - 32. On the east side of the deep-water channel from the Norfolk & Western ware- house No. 2 at Lamberts Point to a point near Tarrells Creek north of the Merritt Wharf all barges and vessels are required to anchor to the eastward of a line of black buoys so as not to obstruct the channel. 33. On the west side of the deep-water channel from Craney Island Lighthouse to North Street, Portsmouth, all vessels are required to anchor to the westward of a line of red buoys, so as not to obstruct the channel. 34. No vessels or barges will be allowed to anchor in or near the entrance to the Port Norfolk or West Norfolk channel under penalty of the law. 35. Vessels and barges dropping out from wharves or docks whose draft of water is over 18 feet will not be allowed to lay at anchor longer than 24 hours without permis- sion of the harbor masters. 36. The anchorage heretofore known as Atlantic City Flats and also Berkley Flats have been abandoned and no vessel or barge will be allowed to anchor on either of these flats under penalty of the law. t 37. Any damage caused to small boats in the harbor by reason of steamers, tugboats, Or Pºwer boats running at an excessive rate of speed shall be paid for by the offending VēSSel. - * 38. All owners, agents, and masters or licensed officers of all vessels are urgently requested to report to the harbor commissioners all violation of harbor rules or reckless navigation, which will receive prompt attention. - The city of Norfolk owns 3 tracts with a water front 2,301 feet long on Hampton Roads at Sewalls Point, about 1 mile below the Army supply base. It also owns several docks at street ends, suitable for launches and light draft vessels. Considerable interest has been manifested for several years by Norfolk commercial bodies and the city government in the improvement of port terminal facilities. In August, 1916, the city entered into an agreement with the Belt Line by which it was to acquire a site for a municipal joint rail and water terminal, and to make considerable progress within 12 months in constructing a pier with adequate transfer facilities between rail and water. In consideration of the above, the railroad company agreed to extend its tracks to the new terminal. The agreement was carried out by both parties. As the Federal Government required the new terminal as a site for the Army supply base, the city sold the property to the Government in 1917. Subsequently, the city acquired a new site for a terminal, above alluded to, which is advan- tageously situated. For the purpose of fully utilizing the channel enlargement now being made by the Government, the construction of a joint rail and water terminal will not only be desirable but necessary for accommodating foreign traffic. A pier with 2,600 linear feet of dockage and a depth of 40 feet, freight house floor area of about 300,000 square feet and warehouse floor, area of 1,000,000 square feet would probably answer as an initial unit. A pier similar to those of the Army supply base, described in this report, should meet requirements. Additional terminal facilities for coastwise traffic would, for the present, appear unnecessary, provided the terminals now in use, which are without proper facilities, be improved. 742 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. In respect of the general efficiency of the port, its coaling capacity is about 12,000,000 long tons per annum. This appears to be hardly sufficient for present demands. During the European War, delay of vessels occurred in meeting coal requirements, notwithstanding that the coal piers were operated day and night. The present capacity of the piers could probably be increased so as to fulfill present re- quirements without great cost. Facilities for furnishing bunker fuel oil are needed. The port has but one small grain elevator. One or more grain elevators are required. The present shipyard facili- ties consist of one dry dock and several marine railways. These will accommodate vessels up to about 2,000 net registered tons. For vessels larger than 2,000 tons, the extensive plant of the Newport News Dry Dock & Shipbuilding Co., at Newport News, Va., is available. The Texas Co. fuel oil station.—The station is on the right bank of Southern Branch of Elizabeth River, immediately below the Virginian Railway bridge. It has a wharf, oil storage tanks, with a capacity of about 21,000,000 gallons; two one-story, steel sheathed frame storehouses, with an aggregate floor surface of 14,000 square feet; one two-story reinforced concrete, barrel-filling house, with a floor surface of 5,400 square feet; two oil pump houses, and railway track yard. The wharf is of open pile construction about 460 feet long. It is being replaced by one of reinforced concrete with con- crete pillars on small concrete piers. The terminal is in excellent condition and its facilities are being increased. The length of dockage available is about 560 feet. The depth of water is 27 feet. Oil is pumped from the company's tank steamers, through pipe lines, to storage tanks from which railway tank cars are loaded. The terminal belongs to the Texas Co. and is for its use only. The station is connected with all local roads, excepting the Chesa- Fº & Ohio and the New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk, by a spur ine connection with the Belt Line, the terms and conditions of using which are according to published tariff. * The highway connection of the terminal is a partly improved country road. Seaboard Air Line Railway Terminal.—The terminal is on the left bank of Southern Branch of Elizabeth River, adjacent to the Norfolk County Ferry Co. docks, Portsmouth, Va. It has a water frontage of about 3,700 feet, of which about 2,700 feet is developed. It occupies an area of about 189 acres. The principal features of the terminal are a pig-iron dock pier with a car-ferry transfer bridge, 4 piers with 6 freight houses, and a wharf with 2 freight houses. The total trackage is about 31 miles. The aggregate floor area of the freight houses is 255,000 square feet. Pig-iron dock pier.—The pier is open, of solid-filled bulkhead con- struction, with a slip 40 feet wide, 13 feet deep, containing a car-ferry transfer bridge. It is in fair condition. Length of dockage available and water depths: Upper side, 445 feet, 15 feet deep; lower side, 740 feet, 16 feet deep. There are four tracks on each side of the dock. Pier 8–9.-Solid-filled bulkhead construction, 465 feet long, 261 feet wide. The pier has two 1-story frame freight houses, 100 feet wide and about 500 feet long, and one shed about 500 feet long, 36 feet wide between the houses. The pier is in good condition. Length of dockage and water depths: Upper side, 385 feet, 20 feet deep; WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 743 lower side, 465 feet 16 feet deep. The freight houses have automatic- sprinkler system fire protection. There are three sunken tracks between the freight houses. Freight is moved by hand trucks. Pier 7.—Solid-filled bulkhead construction, 383 feet long, 156 feet wide. The pier has one 1-story steel-sheathed frame freight house, 363 feet long, 128 feet wide. Fire protection: Fire hydrants 100 feet apart inside of house. The pier is in good condition. Length of dockage and depths of water: Upper side, 382 feet, 12 feet deep; lower side, 393 feet, 14 feet deep. There are two sunken tracks in middle of freight house. Freight is moved by hand trucks. Pier 6.—Solid-filled bulkhead construction, 358 feet long, average width 225 feet. The pier has one 1-story steel-sheathed frame freight house, 260 feet long, 200 feet wide. Fire protection: Fire hydrants 100 feet apart within the house. The pier is in good condition. Length of dockage available and depths: Upper side, 270 feet, 12 feet deep; lower side, 358 feet, 15 feet deep. F. pier has one track on an apron on lower side of house. Freight is moved by hand trucks. Pier 4–5.-Solid-filled bulkhead construction, 250 feet long, 234 feet wide. Pier has two 1-story steel-sheathed frame freight houses 80 feet wide and 203 feet and 217 feet long, and a shed 208 feet long 25 feet wide. The water depth is insufficient for berthing vessels in the slips. The length of dockage available at the pierhead is 250 feet 22 feet deep. The pier has a track near the inshore ends of the houses. Freight is moved by hand trucks. The pier is leased to a wholesale dealer in agricultural lime. The wharf is of solid-filled bulkhead construction in good condi- tion, 655 feet long, all available for use. It has two freight houses, one a one-story frame, 460 feet long, 75 feet wide; the other a two- story steel-sheathed frame, 110 feet long, 85 feet wide. Depth of water, 20 feet. A railroad siding is adjacent to the shore sides of the freight houses. There are no charges for use of the piers when freight is received from regular steamers with which the railway has through freight contracts, or when there is through haul of any considerable extent. Wharf charges are levied against tramp steamers and vessels using the piers occasionally, as follows: Vessels of 300 tons or less, 1 cent per net ton per day; vessels over 300 tons, one-half of 1 cent per net ton per day. Under the present plan of receiving and shipping freight by barges and small steamers, the piers serve their purpose fairly well. To make them suitable for coastwise traffic, modern lifting gangways should be installed. For foreign traffic the piers should be equipped with locomotive cranes and have wide aprons with railroad tracks. - The piers are directly connected by the main track of the Seaboard Air Line with the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railroad and, through this connection, with all local railroads excepting the Chesa- peake & Ohio Railroad and New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk Railroad. With these two roads there is indirect connection by barges, also by car ferries. By the latter, loaded cars are received from Norfolk for unloading at the wharf and piers or shipped to Norfolk for unloading. The conditions of using the belt line and car ferries are governed by the carriers’ tariff of switching charges. There is interchange of traffic with coastwise vessels by steamer, also by barges towed between the terminal's piers and those of coast- wise steamship companies at Norfolk. tº The highway connections of the terminal are improved city streets. 744 wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Norfolk Southern Railroad Terminal.—The terminal is on the right bank of the Southern Branch of Elizabeth River, adjacent to and above the Norfolk County Ferries Co. dock. It has a frontage of 1,640 feet, covers an area of 30 acres, and has about 74 miles of track- age. It comprises awharf, with a dock, two freight houses, two sheds, and a car ferry transfer bridge. The aggregate floor surface of the freight houses is about 27,000 square feet. The wharf is of solid- filled bulkhead construction, with an apron 10 feet wide on piling along its front. On the wharf's upper side is an apron 492 feet long, 20 feet wide, on piling, with railway track, and adjacent to it a slip 100 feet wide. The dock is near its lower end. It is 300 feet long, 200 feet wide at its mouth, and 100 feet wide at its shore end. The freight houses and sheds are one-story frame buildings. The car ferry transfer bridge is situated in a dock immediately below the wharf. The terminal is in fair condition. The length of dockage available is about 2,000 feet and depth of water 10 feet. Freight is moved by hand trucks, except at the slip at the wharf's upper end, where lumber is transferred by ships' tackle from vessels to railroad cars on the apron. The conditions of its public use are as published in carrier's tariff. The terminal is adapted to present conditions. It has spur line connection with the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railroad, through which direct connection is made with all local railroads except the New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk and the Chesa- peake & Ohio Railroads, with which there is communication by car floats and covered barges. The conditions of using the belt line are as given in published tariffs of carriers. Interchange of traffic is i. with coastwise steamship lines at Norfolk, by means of covered a.P.O. eS. Hºly improved streets adjoin the terminal. Norfolk & Western Railroad Terminals— Main Terminal.—The ter- minal is situated on the right bank of Elizabeth River, at Lambets Point, Norfolk, Va. It has a water front of about 2,500 feet and . occupies an area of about 600 acres. It has three coal piers, numbered 2, 3, and 4; three merchandise piers, two with freight houses, num- bered 1 and 2, and one open pier. The trackage available for coal- pier service, in storage, classification, empty, and hump yards, amounts to 38 miles. The maximum delivery of the three coal piers du in one month, viz, July, 1918, was 810,891 long tons, and the averago. monthly delivery for the year 630,000 long tons, or a total tonnage for the year of about seven and one-half millions. With the completion of improvements in progress, the capacity of the piers should be con- siderably increased. The merchandise piers are used exclusively for foreign traffic, of which 274,731 short tons was transferred from rail- road cars to 100 vessels during the year 1918. The terminal is main- tained in excellent condition. The length of dockage available at the coal piers is about 5,700 feet and at the merchandise piers about #º feet. The depth of water at the terminal varies from 25 to 34 eet. Coal pier No. 2 was constructed in 1892. It is 797 feet long, 63 feet wide, and 48 feet high above mean low water. It is formed of 36-foot, steel plate girders, on braced steel piers, supported on steel piles with disks 4 feet in diameter. The length of dockage available is 1,580 feet. The depth of water is 25 to 30 feet on lower side and 30 to 34 feet on up- per side. The pier has a track on each side, falling outshore on a light WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 745 grade, and a return middle track, inclined inshore on a 2% percentgrade. A segment of a turntable between the side tracks at their outshore ends is used for shifting emptied cars from the side tracks to the mid- dle track. There are 14 chutes on each side of the pier, adjustable by hand windlasses, for delivering coal to vessels of low freeboard. In operating, loaded hopper-bottom road cars are pushed by a steam locomotive up an inclined track on a 2.8 per cent grade to the top of the pier. The cars then move by gravity, under brake control, to any desired chute and are dumped, one pocket at a time. The car then moves by gravity to the turntable and is there diverted to the middle track, on which it returns by gravity to the yard for empties. The pier has not been used to any extent by the railroad company for several years. It was operated during 1918 by the Navy Department for furnishing bunker coal. The method of operating consisted in dumping the coal into temporary 50-ton bins, from which it was lifted by electric conveyors and delivered through spouts to vessels. Five of the conveyors have a capacity of 35 tons per hour and two of 65 tons. Six conveyors for coaling from barges were also used in transferring bunker coal to steamers from barges loaded at the pier. The maximum capacity of the pier is probably 500 long tons per hour, and its probable average monthly output 133,000 long tons. Coal Pier No. 3 is 868 feet long, 50 feet wide, and 75 feet high above mean low water. It was constructed in 1901, and was used during 1918 for delivering bunker coal. It is formed of 50-foot steel-plate girders on steel skeleton piers, supported on concrete-filled steel cylinders, inclosing bearing piles. The length of dockage available is 1,715 feet and the depth of water 33 feet. The top of the pier is connected with the coal-car yards by an inclined track on a 24 per cent grade. The number and arrangement of tracks on the pier are the same as for coal Pier No. 2. There is a kickback at the outshore end of each sidetrack from which the emptied road cars reach the middle track by crossovers. The pier is operated with hopper-bottom road cars which are moved up the inclined track to the top of the pier by a barney. It is reported having a maximum capacity of about 1,600 tons per hour. The pier is now being adapted to delivering cargo lump coal and coal briquets by lowering with conveyors. Its capacity with the improvements being made is problematical. Coal Pier No. 4 is an electrically operated steel pier constructed in 1913. It is 1,200 feet long, 67 feet wide, and 93 feet high above mean low water. It is formed of 90-foot steel-plate girders, on steel skeleton piers supported on concrete-filled steel cylinders. The length of dockage available is 2,400 feet and depth of water 33 feet. The pier has two outside horizontal tracks and a middle return track, inclined shoreward on a 64 per cent grade. Under each sidetrack is a line of 31 coal bins, each with a capacity of 120 tons. Each bin has a vertical chute with an adjustable spout. Included in the operating plant of the pier are two road car dumpers, each having a capacity for emptying one 100-ton car in two minutes, two elevators, each with a capacity for lifting one 100-ton transfer car, and twelve 100-ton transfer cars. The transfer cars receive their power through an overhead catenary. They have bottom gates, an air compressor for operating the gates, and two propelling motors for operating the car. The dumpers and elevators are operated with counterweights, 746 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. supplemented by electric motors. The elevators and dumpers are similar in their general design to those installed at the Virginian Railroad Terminal in 1918. The maximum capacity of the pier is about 5,400 tons per hour. Under normal conditions its capacity is about 30,000 tons per day of 20 working hours, or 780,000 tons per month of 26 working days. Merchandise Piers 1 and 2 are of solid filled bulkhead construction. Pier 1 is 735 feet long and Pier 2, 750 feet long. Each is 190 feet wide and has a frame freight house 140 feet wide, sheathed with corrugated sheet steel. The house on Pier 1 is one story, 705 feet long; that on Pier 2 is two-story, 710 feet long. The latter has four freight elevators. The piers are in fair condition. The length of dockage available is 2,970 feet and the depth of water 33 feet. Each pier has two sunken railway tracks along the middle line of the freight house and one outside track on an apron. There is an over- head cable in each freight house, operated by an electric winch, for unloading large logs from freight cars. There are no mechanical appliances for handling other freight. The loading and unloading of vessels are done by their derricks and steam winches. The open pier was formerly the base of a coal pier. It is of solid filled bulkhead construction, 869 feet long, 66 feet wide, with a rail- road track on each side. The pier is in fair condition. Dockage is available on the lower side only. Its length is 850 feet, with a depth of 28 feet. The pier has no mechanical appliances. Freight is moved by ships' tackles and winches. Vessels using the merchandise piers are charged 1 cent per diem per net registered ton and wharfage according to published tariffs. Dumping and trimming charges, in accordance with published tariff, are made for vessels taking coal. The terminal is adapted to the purpose for which it was designed. All of the piers are connected with the main line of the Norfolk & Western Railway and through it with the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line, which connects with all local railroads. The conditions of use of the belt line are given in the published tariff. The traffic interchanged between rail and water comprises coal shipped in barges and steamers to home ports and in steamers to foreign ports. There is also considerable interchange in commodities between rail and water in foreign traffic. A partly improved highway connects the terminal with an improved highway to the Army and Navy bases and the city of Norfolk. Boissevain Avenue Terminal.—The terminal is on the right bank of Elizabeth River, about one-half mile southeasterly of the Norfolk & Western Railroad main terminal, at Lamberts Point, Norfolk, Va. The terminal was used by the United States Engineer Department as a supply depot for overseas shipments between July, 1917, and May, 1918. It has a water front of about 1,400 feet. Its principal features are two covered piers, designated Pier L and Pier S, an open Fº and slips 250 feet wide between the piers; a slip, known as the rainage Canal, and, on a 64-acre tract adjacent to the above struc- tures, five warehouses', about 10 acres of open storage yard and 19 miles of trackage. An open storage yard and classification yard at Portlock, on the Norfolk & Western Railroad, about 5 miles from Norfolk, were used in connection with the depot in classifying freight and, if necessary, in transferring it to other cars. The Portlock yards have an area of ió acres with 33 miles of trackage. - - 1 Removed since this report was written. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 747 Covered piers.--Pier L is 1,197 feet long and Pier S 800 feet long. Each is 220 feet wide and has aprons 7 feet wide on both sides. Both iers are of the same general design, consisting partly of solid filled in. and partly of open pilework, creosoted, the piling inclosing the bulkheads on both sides and on the outshore end. The bulkhead construction for both piers is about 120 feet wide, extending about 755 feet from shore bulkheads. Each pier has a one-story freight house about 206 feet wide. That on Pier L is about 1,136 feet long and that on Pier S 740 feet long. The houses are of steel frame construction with steel roof trusses, and are sheathed with corrugated sheet steel. The side doors are of a steel slat roller type, operated by chain hoists. The houses are equipped with automatic sprinklers. The floors are of heavy plank. Both houses have transverse fire curtains between the bottom chords of the roof trusses and the roof, at intervals of about 144 feet. In the house on Pier L the fire curtains are of concrete, and directly under them, beneath the floor, are concrete cross bulkheads. On Pier S the roof curtains are of corrugated sheet steel. Fresh water for vessels is supplied from mains on both sides of the piers. The piers are in excellent condition. They have an aggregate length of dockage available of about 4,000 feet, with a depth of water of 32 feet. The i. were designed for coastwise vessels on which freight is usually oaded or discharged through side ports, and are provided on each side with lifting gangways with counterweights. When not in use the gangways are flush with the freight-house floor. In using them, their outboard ends are lifted to the vessels' side ports by chain hoists, forming ramps on which hand trucks are moved. Pier L has 16 lifting gangways on each side. Pier S has two of the above type of gangway on one side and eight gangways on both sides, each with an endless chain conveyor for moving freight. The conveyors are operated by electric motors, which are also used for elevating the outboard ends of the gangways. As trans-Atlantic vessels are usually loaded through hatches, the gangways have not been used by the Government. The handling of freight at the covered piers has been carried on with ships’ derricks and derrick boats. Four sunken tracks are situated about the middle of each of the piers and extend for nearly, their entire length, Open pier.—The pier is of open pile construction with creosoted piling. It is 958 feet long and 90 feet wide. It has a 35-ton derrick with a reach of 60 feet, situated about half way between the pier's extremities, for serving its upper side. On each side of the pier is a pair of railway tracks, with crossovers between them, and one middle track. The pier was constructed by the Government in 1917–18 and is in excellent condition. The length of dockage available is about 1,900 feet and the depth of water 32 feet. The loading and unloading of freight are carried on principally by the ships' derricks, derrick boats, and by locomotive cranes placed on one of a pair of tracks while the railroad cars which are being unloaded occupy the other track. The 35-ton derrick is also used for this purpose. The drainage canal is 814 feet long, 110 feet wide, and 10 feet deep. It enters the river immediately above the open pier. It has a wharf 15 feet wide on its left side and one 7 feet wide on its right side. The canal has been used principally for loading upon lighters steel billets and rails, the loaded lighters being moved to the piers for transfer of cargo to outbound vessels. In loading lighters in the canal, 748 waTER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. locomotive cranes are placed on a railway track on the wharf on the left bank and the car that is being unloaded on a shore track adjacent to the wharf. This plan is also employed in unloading railway cars in the freight houses and in the open-storage yard. The warehouses are 100.5 feet wide with side platforms 9 feet wide. Three of the houses are 497.67 feet long, divided by a cross wall into two com- partments, and two of the houses, 803.67 feet long, divided into three compartments. The partition walls are of hollow tile. The houses have wood frames, sheathed with corrugated sheet steel. The roof covering is tarred paper. The floors of the smaller houses are of wood and those of the larger concrete. The houses have wood sliding doors hung with barn-door hangers. The houses are lighted by elec- tricity. Fire protection is furnished by fire hydrants placed along the outside of the side walls, five on each side of the smaller houses, and eight on each side of the larger. Each hydrant has 24-inch hose with 14-inch nozzle, in racks. Fresh water is supplied from a 100,000- gallon tank, with an initial pressure of 55 pounds. When this pres- sure falls to 45 pounds, by the lowering of the water level in the tank, electrically driven pumps start automatically and supply sea water for fire stream at a pressure of 120 pourds. The aggregate floor surface of the houses is about 300,000 square feet. There is a railway on both sides of each house, adjacent to the platforms. The ware- houses and piers are connected by a concrete road. The terminal belongs to the Norfolk & Western Railroad Co. and was leased by the Engineer Department in 1917. The covered piers were under construction by the railroad company when the terminal was leased by the Government, at which time they were nearly com- pleted. With the open pier and warehouses constructed by the Government, the terminal has proved its suitability as a supply depot. Wider aprons, with two railway tracks on both sides of the covered piers, would make them better adapted for handling trans- Atlantic cargoes. During the calendar year of 1918 upward of 830,000 short tons was loaded on vessels at the terminal. The largest month's work was done in October, 1918, when upward of 112,000 short tons was handled. The terminal is connected, through the Norfolk & Western Rail- road, with the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railroad, and through it with all local railroads, excepting the Chesapeake & Ohio and New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk Railroads. * The depot adjoins improved city streets.

Army supply base.—The Army supply base, constructed in 1918 and 1919, is on the eastern shore of Hampton Roads, at Bush Bluff, immediately below the mouth of Tanners Creek, near Norfolk, Va. The terminal occupies an area of 912 acres, of which 524 acres were Originally dry land, 217 acres reclaimed by the Government, and 171 acres water rights. It has a water front of nearly 1% miles, of which 2,650 linear feet is improved. The following are the principal features: Two covered piers, designated Pier No. 1 and Pier No. 2, projecting 1,320 feet from a shore quay wall of reinforced concrete 2,030 feet long; eight warehouses with 2,016,000 square feet of first floor and 69,600 square feet of second floor; 45 miles of trackage, situated principally in a receiving yard, an outbound yard, a classi- fication yard, and an open storage yard; 11.97 miles of concrete and macadam highway; quarters for two battalions of guards and One regiment of stevedores; a hospital; an incinerator; and two reservoirs, with a total water storage capacity of 3,000,000 gallons, supplied from the two water systems of Norfolk. The piers have reinforced concrete sheet piling bulkheads, inclosing dredged material. Both piers have reinforced concrete aprons on their sides and ends upº by reinforced concrete piling, except for a distance of about 800 feet on the upper side at the shore end of Pier WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 755 No. 1, which was constructed with creosoted piling by the city of Norfolk, Va., before the site of the terminal was acquired by the Federal Government from the city. The aprons are 36 feet wide on each side of Pier No. 1 and on the lower side of Pier No. 2. The apron on the upper side of Pier No. 2 is 7 feet wide. Provision is made for furnishing vessels with fresh water and fuel oil at several points on both sides of each pier. The water is furnished from an elevated tank near the pier and the oil by a pipe line from the Standard Oil Co.'s fuel-oil station, about 1 mile northerly of the piers. Each pier has a freight house 1,280 feet long. The width of the house on Pier No. 1 is 228 feet and that on Pier No. 2, 257 feet. The houses are 1-story, excepting for 500 feet at the shore end of Pier No. 2, which is 2-story. The second story is for office purposes. It is connected by an inclined roadway 450 feet long, with one of the streets of the base between two of the warehouses. The sides of the houses are divided into 20-foot panels by steel columns. About 20 per cent of the panels are closed by wire-mesh concrete; the remainder of the panels, usually in groups of five, have steel bifold doors, operated by chain hoists. The roofs are steel trusses, 20 feet between centers, supported by the side columns and four intermediate columns. The roofing is plank covered with tar paper and gravel. The floors of the houses are of 6-inch timber to be replaced by reinforced concrete when the earth filling between the bulkheads has entirely settled. The houses are provided with a modern sprinkler system. Each of the three wide pier aprons has two railway tracks. Each pier also has three sunken tracks along its middle axis. A gantry track is situated on both sides of Pier No. 1 and on the lower side of Pier No. 2. Each gantry track has two rails, one sit- uated 21 feet 2% inches above the apron, supported on brackets at- tached to the outer faces of the columns of the sides of the freight houses, the other on the apron 5 feet from its outer edge. By means of these tracks the gantry cranes can be shifted along the aprons and used in loading and unloading vessels by moving freight between the vessels and railroad cars placed on the aprons. A system of cargo masts installed on each side of each freight house for loading and discharging cargoes is formed by a continuous steel structure extending the entire length of each house on both sides, consisting of braced triangular frames, each frame attached to and supported by a roof truss. A continuous steel beam attached to the tops of the vertical members of the frames carries steel shackles, 1% inches in diameter, at intervals of 5 feet. The proposed working load on each 20-foot panel of the beam is 5 tons. In operating, a snatch block is hooked into one of the shackles, and a rope end passed through the snatch block, then taken to and through a pulley or snatch block on a mast of a vessel, moored to the pier for loading or unloading, and attached to a winch on the vessel. The other rope end is taken to a portable winch anchored to the pier apron beneath the snatch block on the cargo mast. The article to be handled is made fast to the bight of the rope between the two Snatch blocks slacked for the purpose, and moved from the vessel to the freight house, or vice versa, by using one or both winches, as may be neces- sary. Anchor rings, countersunk in the pier apron under each of the cargo mast shackles, furnish anchorages for the electric winches. 756 . WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Six-inch horizontal lally pipes, attached to the sides of the house about 18 feet above the aprons, prevent chafing of the rope in mov- ing freight from the house. The warehouses are constructed with brick or plastered tile walls, concrete floors and platforms and built up roofs of wood, asphalt, and gravel. Each house is divided by brick walls into 10 compartments. The houses are 160 feet wide with platforms 20 feet wide on each side. Three of the houses, viz, Nos. 1, 2, and 3 are 1,400 feet long, and five, Nos. 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, 1,680 feet long. Nos. 5 and 6 are fitted for steam heating. The houses are one story, except No. 5, which has a second story 550 feet long at one end, designed for administration purposes. All have automatic sprinkler fire protection, steel-clad doors, ribbed wire glass skylights and are electrically lighted. On one side of each ware- house is a concrete paved street and on the other side railway tracks connecting with the trackage system. Freight at the warehouses is moved by electric motor trucks and trailers, and is stacked and un- stacked by means of electric pilers and stackers. The length of dock- age available for a depth of 35 feet is about 6,250 feet, of which 5,280 feet is alongside the piers and 950 feet at the quay wall in front of one of the ends of six of the warehouses. There is also dockage 600 feet long for a depth of 20 feet on the quay wall at one end of each of two warehouses. In front of the piers is a basin 35 feet deep of sufficient size to allow turning vessels of the largest size. A chan- nel 500 feet wide connects the dredged area with the improved 35- foot channel. The terminal is a model of its class and, although designed for military purposes, is adapted to commercial uses. It is connected with the Virginian Riº, also with the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railroad, and through the latter with all local railroads. - An improved concrete highway and an electric street railway con nects the terminal with the United States naval base at Sewalls Point and the city of Norfolk. Standard Oil Co. fuel oil station.—The station is on the eastern shore of Hampton Roads, at Sewalls Point, near Norfolk, Va. It was established in May, 1918, on a 70-acre tract with a water frontage of about 750 feet. On the tract are 10 oil tanks with an aggregate capacity of about 14,500,000 gallons, for storage of fuel oil, kero- sene, gasoline and gas oil. Adjacent to the tanks are railway tracks. In front of the tract, about 2,600 feet from shore, near the improved 35-foot channel, are two breasting dolphins and a braced pile plat- form supporting the outer extremities of two 8-inch and one 12-inch pipe lines, extending from the storage tanks, for receiving oil and gasoline. The dolphins are about 250 feet apart. About 600 feet above the upper dolphin and 600 feet below the lower, are two 5-ton mooring anchors with buoys. About 1,800 feet shoreward of the dolphins are two other pile dolphins about 150 feet apart and between them, a braced pile platform supporting risers from the pipe line, for delivering oils and gasoline. The Outer dolphins and mooring anchors furnish dockage for a vessel about 530 feet long in water 35 feet deep. At the inner dolphins the depth is 12 feet and four barges upward of 120 feet long can be berthed. Oil is received from large vessels at the outer dolphins, and barges receive oil at the inner dolphins. The station is open to all on equal terms. Its estimated capacity for delivering fuel oil is 125,000 gallons per hour. It is conveniently situated for delivering oils to, or receiving it from WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 757 vessels; also for delivery to tank cars. . The facilities for mooring vessels are unsuitable. A pier for berthing vessels, while delivering or receiving oil is necessary for satisfactorily meeting existing con- ditions. The present arrangement for furnishing oil to vessels is by delivery to barges, from which it is transferred to vessels lying in the stream. It is understood that the construction of a scitable pier is being considered by the company. The station is connected with all local railroads by the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railroad, over which there are switching charges as per tariff. Oil received by vessels at the station is shipped by rail in tank cars. The station is connected by improved highways with the Army supply base, the naval operating base and the city of Norfolk. The Virginian Railroad terminal.—The terminal is situated on the eastern shore of Hampton Roads at Sewall's Point, about seven- eighths of a mile northerly of the northern city limits of Norfolk, Va. It is used only for delivering bituminous coal to vessels. It occupies an area of 525 acres with 40 miles of railway tracks, and contains an electrically operated, steel, coal pier and extensive yards, with 28 miles of track, for classification, storage and empty cars. Con- nected with and adjacent to the terminal are the open coal storage yard operated by the Navy Department with storage capacity for 300,000 tons, unloading trestle 3,000 feet long and one electrically operated reloading tower with an estimated capacity of 300 tons per hour, and also the yard operated by Gulf Smokeless Coal Co. with storage capacity of 100,000 tons, and one link belt, wide gage, steam locomotive crane, of estimated capacity of 300 tons per hour. The pier was constructed in 1909. In 1918 the terminal was im– proved and its capacity increased by adding an elevator and a car dumper for emptying road coal cars of the largest size. The pier's estimated maximum capacity is 4,000 long tons per hour. Its maximum delivery in one month during 1918, before the improve- ments were made, was about 423,000 long tons, and the average monthly delivery 351,000 long tons, or a total delivery for the year of 4,220,576 long tons. The present estimated average monthly delivery is 780,000 long tons. The pier is an open, steel structure supported on steel cylinders filled with concrete. It is 1,045 feet long, 65 feet wide and about 70 feet high above mean low water. The pier and all other features of the terminal are in excellent con- dition. Length of dockage available, 2,090 feet, 35 feet deep for a length of 750 feet, and 32 feet for the remainder. On top of and on each side of the pier is a track falling outshore on a 0.66 per cent grade and between them a return track extending ashore, from near the outshore end of the pier, on a 2.83 per cent grade. At the outer extemity of each of the outside tracks is a kick back. Crossover tracks from the kick back connect the side tracks with the middle track near the Outer end of the pier. Under each side track is a line of 31 coal bins, each with a capacity of 55 tons, for receiving coal dumped from transfer cars. Each bin has an adjustable chute and spout for delivering coal to vessels at different elevations. At the shore end of the pier and opposite the northern pier track is an ele- vator, installed in 1918, for lifting one loaded transfer car of 120 tons capacity to the level of the pier tracks. The power for moving the transfer cars is supplied through an overhead catenary. The elevator is operated with counterweights by two electric motors. 7.58 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The speed of the elevator is adjustable by gearing and makes a com- plete cycle in two minutes. Between the elevator and the loaded çar yard is situated a car dumper, installed in 1918, with a capacity for handling two 60-ton road cars or one 110-ton road car. The Southern pier track is connected with the car yards by a track inclined inshore from the shore end of the pier, on a 25 per cent grade, up which the loaded transfer cars are moved by a barney. Between the southern pier track and the car yards is situated a car dumper, installed in 1909, with a capacity for dumping one 60-ton road car. The principal features of the dumpers are the cradle and clamps, the latter for holding the road cars rigidly in the cradle while being emptied. in the bottom of the one-car cradle is a platen, and in the two-car cradle two platens. The platens are supported on rollers, and are used for moving the car laterally, by electric power, against the side of the cradle. There are four clamps for each platen, spaced to engage cars of different lengths. The clamps extend laterally across the top of the car. The cradle and clamps are operated inde- pendently, with counterweights, by electric motors. In emptying road cars the cradles are rotated through an arc of 160°. The time consumed in emptying a car is about one minute. Twelve transfer cars of 120 tons capacity are available, of which six are used in operat- ing with each of the pier tracks. Each transfer car has two 6-wheel, equalized trucks, each having one 60-horsepower driving motor, geared for a 12-mile per hour speed. The transfer cars have a closed room at each end and are operated from either end. The body of the car is hopper shaped and divided into three compartments. Each compartment has two discharge gates in its bottom operated by compressed air from either end of the car. When closed, the gates are securely locked by the air pressure. In operating with the south- ern pier track a loaded road car is run by gravity from the car yard to the foot of an inclined track leading to the smaller car dumper. The car is then moved by a barney up the incline to the dumper, emptied into a transfer car, and returned to the empty car yard. After being loaded the transfer car is propelled by its own power to the foot of the incline with the 25 per cent grade above referred to, up which it is moved by a barney to the top of the pier. The car, propelled by its own motor, is then moved over a bin, dumped and moved to a kick back, thence by a crossover to the return track and down this track by gravity to the dumper for reloading. The time consumed by a transfer car in receiving and dumping its load and returning to the dumper is seven minutes. The cars have regenerat- ing devices for recovering the energy developed in descending the incline. In operating the northern track the loaded transfer cars are lifted to the top of the pier by the elevator. By means of cross- over tracks at the shore end of the pier either pier track can be oper- ated in connection with the barney or the elevator. The terms and conditions of public use are as published in carrier's tariff. Dumping and trimming charges, in accordance with published tariff, are made for coal furnished to vessels. The coal pier is most suitable for delivering cargo coal to fast loading vessels. An additional pier for increasing the available length of dockage and for furnishing bunker coal, and cargo coal to slow loading vessels, would greatly improve the terminal’s efficiency in meeting the future output from the coal fields tributary to the railway and the requirements of consumers. water TERMINAL AND FRANSFER FACILITIES. 759 The terminal is connected through the Virginian Railway with the Portsmouth & Norfolk Belt Line Railroad, over which there are tariff switching charges. Practically all of the coal dumped at the pier is shipped by water to distant points. * An unimproved highway adjoins the terminal property. Naval operating base.—The base is situated on the eastern shore of Hampton Roads, at Sewalls Point, about 1% miles northerly of the Army supply base. The principal features of the project are a training station for seamen, an aviation station, a submarine basin, a hospital, and facilities for receiving, storing, and issuing naval Sup- plies. Very extensive works have been constructed at the base, including barracks for enlisted men, the hospital, concrete roads, a trolley street car line, a reservoir of 2,000,000 gallons' capacity con- nected with the Norfolk water supply, four temporary frame ware- houses, a cold-storage plant, one of six proposed permanent store- houses, one of six proposed covered piers, and an open pier 1,150 feet long. Considerable progress has also been made in excavating the submarine basin and in reclaiming land. It is understood that the five piers and five storehouses yet to be constructed will conform approximately in design to the covered pier and the storehouse that have been constructed. The covered pier is of open pile construc- tion, with creosoted piles. It is 1,375 feet long, 125 feet wide, with an apron 24 feet wide on one side and one 34 feet wide on the other. The latter has two railway tracks. Fuel oil is supplied to vessels from mains on both sides of the pier from the Standard Oil Co.'s yard, about 1 mile southerly of the base. The pier has a freight house one story high, with a floor area of 84,000 square feet. The building is frame, sheathed with corrugated sheet steel. Fire pro- tection is furnished by fire hydrants. The permanent storehouse is constructed of reinforced concrete. It is 497 feet long, 118 feet wide, and six stories high. A transverse wall divides the building into two equal sections. There is a platform 20 feet wide on each side of the building. The sixth floor is for offices and the other floors for stor- age. The available surface storage is about 255,000 square feet. The floors are designed for loads of ñº, 200 to 400 pounds per square foot and have an aggregate load capacity of about 42,000 tons. The building is equipped with an automatic sprinkler system, automatic telephones, four freight elevators of 10,000 pounds’ capacity, two passenger elevators, and one single and one triple spiral gravity con- veyor. Railway tracks, on both sides of the building, connect it with the pier and track yard. The latter has storage for 150 cars. The present length of dockage is about 2,700 feet and the depth 35 feet at mean low water. The base is connected with the Virginian Railroad and the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railway, and through the latter with all local railroads. It is connected with the Army base and the city of Norfolk by a concrete road and an electric street car line. Pig Point ordnance depot.—The depot is on the right bank of Nanse- mond River, at its mouth, about 7 miles southerly of Newport News, Va. It is situated on a tract of about 600 acres. It has a pier, bar- racks, and about 25 miles of trackage. There are 75 one-story houses of various sizes, constructed of hollow tiling, or frame, sheathed with corrugated asbestos board, having an aggregate floor area of about 442,000 square feet. The pier consists of a single-track railroad 760 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. trestle about 4,800 feet long, with a floored pier head 581 feet long, 100 feet wide, with two railroad tracks on one side and a storehouse with 9,500 square feet floor area. The pier is of open pile construc- tion, with creosoted piling. The length of dockage available is 1,160 feet. The depth of water is 8 feet. The station is connected by a spur line with the Atlantic Coast Line Railway. As this terminal was designed for military purposes and is not believed to be suitable for commercial purposes, further details are omitted. HAMPTON CREEK, VA. Hampton Creek is an estuary 2 or 3 miles long, on the north side of Hampton Roads. The creek has two tributaries, Herberts Creek from the west and Jones Creek from the east. The town of Hampton is situated on the creek about a mile from its mouth. At the creek's mouth is Hampton Bar. Between 1879 and 1892 a channel 9 feet deep was dredged by the Federal Government. The dredged channel was 300 feet wide on the bar and 200 feet wide on the creek. Since the completion of the project in 1892 no improvement work has been done. The present controlling depth is 9 feet. The water-borne commerce on the creek consists of general mer- chandise, miscellaneous commodities, and fish and oysters. The classes of vessels using the creek are small steamers of about 350 net registered tons and small sailing vessels and motorboats. There are a number of wharves and landings on Hampton Creek, on Herberts Creek, a tributary from the west, and on Jones Creek, a tributary from the east. The wharves are either of solid filled bulkhead or open-pile construction, and are generally in fair condition with water depths adjacent of 7 to 10 feet. None of the wharves has mechanical appliances for handling cargoes. With the exception of a public wharf owned by the county all are privately owned and are for the use of their owners, generally crab and oyster packers, and for the accommodation of those with whom the owners transact business. Private commercial wharves on the western side of the creek belong to Hudgins Bros., coal and wood dealers; the Heffelfinger Co. (Inc.), dealers in lumber, coal, and wood; McMinaman & Co., crab packers; and Armstrong Bros., oyster packers. On the east side of the creek most of the wharves are small launch landings. There are also wharves on this side, one belonging to the National Soldiers’ Home, one to Hampton Normal School, and one to the Huntington Industrial Works. In Herberts Creek are several small landings belonging to the street railway company. The public wharf is owned by the county and is leased to the Old Dominion Steamship Co., under conditions that are understood to provide for its public use upon payment of proper wharfage charges. The wharves are connected with the streets of the town by im- proved or partly improved roads. There are no railroad connections for the wharves and there is no interchange of traffic between rail and water on the creek. The wharves are adequate for present and prospective requirements, and a joint rail and water terminal is not required. There is a small marine railway at Hampton of sufficient size for the oyster boats using the creek. The Newcomb Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Co. has a shipyard in Herberts Creek, where large wooden vessels were recently constructed. - WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 761 APPOMATTOX RIVER, WA. The Appomattox River rises in Appomattox County, Va., flows northeasterly 137 miles and empties into James River at City Point, Va. Its drainage area is 1,565 square miles. The low-water dis- charge at Petersburg is estimated at 248 second-feet, and the maxi- mum for a gage height of 17.1 feet above mean low water is roughly estimated at 35,000 second-feet. The stream is tidal from its mouth to Petersburg, which is the head of navigation. The river's width varies from 0.8 mile at its mouth to 200 feet at Petersburg. The normal mean tidal range is 2.9 feet. The present controlling depth is about 5% feet between Petersburg and about 2 miles below. The project provides for a navigable channel 80 feet wide and 12 feet deep at mean high water between Petersburg, Va., and Point of Rocks, 3% miles above the river's mouth, a distance of 7% miles; a diversion channel 200 to 300 feet wide, 2% miles long, for delivering the discharge into the old channel; a diversion dam at the head of the navigable channel and other incidental work. During 1918 the amount of water-borne commerce reported was 208,306 short tons, all of which was sand and gravel, barged from 4 miles below Peters- burg. The vessels generally using the river are small steamers and barges of about 6 feet draft. - ere are no wharves in the river except at Petersburg, where there is a continuous shore bulkhead about 2,450 feet long on the right bank, part of which is used for wharf purposes. About 900 feet of the bulkhead belongs to the city of Petersburg, which leases parts and allows other parts to be used by the public on equal terms. The remaining 1,550 feet is owned by corporations and private individuals. The wharves are adequate for the amount of business transacted. A spur line of the Atlantic Coast Line Railway is near the wharves. It connects with its own line and that of the Norfolk & Western Railway. The only interchange of traffic between rail and water is for sand and gravel, delivered to the railroads by the dealers. There are no contracts between railroads and steamers for prorating. The wharves are adjacent to partly improved city streets. There is no apparent necessity for a joint rail and water terminal, as the present facilities are sufficient for present and prospective requirements. CHANNEL TO NEWPORT NEWS, WA. The harbor of Newport News, Va., is situated on the left bank of the James River at its mouth. The improved channel connects deep water in James River with Hampton Roads and is 3% miles long. This channel is 400 feet wide and 35 feet deep. The existing project provides for enlarging the channel by widening it to 600 feet with a depth of 40 feet at mean low water. The principal articles of export are bituminous coal, forest and farm products, and a great variety of commodities. The principal imports are ores and miscellaneous merchandise. The total tonnage for 1918, including that of cargoes in transit inbound and outbound, amounted to 13,832,760 short tons. All classes and sizes of vessels with drafts up to about 32 feet use the harbor. 762 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The principal terminal and transfer facilities are those of the Chesa- peake & Ohio Railway, comprising three coal piers, six freight piers and one passenger pier. There is also at Newport News a wharf used by steamers of the Old Dominion Steamship Co. and by small vessels engaged in local traffic; a small boat harbor, known as the “Pen,” and a public pier open to all on equal terms, from which a ferry steamer plies to Sewalls Point, near Norfolk, Va. The terminal facilities are adequate for present necessities. They will have to be increased to meet prospective development of the territory served by the Chesapeake & Ohio §. During recent hostilities in Europe this railroad was one of the most active and important on the Atlantic seaboard in transporting and handling supplies for the American, British, and French armies, and in the transportation and embarka- tion of American troops at its Newport News terminal. There are no rules and regulations for the port except those included in Federal statutes pertaining to rivers and harbors. There are no port charges. There is no necessity for another joint rail and water terminal. The port is highly efficient in furnishing bituminous coal and in facilities for making repairs to vessels. The shipyard of the Newport News Dry Dock & Shipbuilding Co. covers an area of 120 a,CI’GS. }. has three dry docks from 537 feet to 804 feet long. The yard is equipped with tools and machinery suitable for making repairs for vessels of all classes and sizes. An increase in grain elevator capacity is required. This would also be desirable as a facility for grain for foreign shipment from the Great Lakes, which is now delivered at ports less advantageously situated than Newport News, Va. Chesapeake dº Ohio Railway terminal.—The terminal is situated on the left bank of James River, near its mouth, at Newport News, Va. It has a water frontage of about 4,700 feet, of which about 3,900 feet is developed. It occupies an area of about 337 acres and has 105 acres of water rights. The principal improvements are a passenger pier, two open and four covered freight piers, one coal-distributing pier with pier house, two coal piers, one grain elevator, two car ferry transfer bridges, open-ground storage, 26 acres of horse and cattle pens and about 96 miles of trackage, of which about 15 miles is for coal cars. The aggregate freight house floor area of the four covered freight piers is about 455,000 square feet. Pier 1 is of open pile construction, 400 feet long, 60 feet wide, and is used for transfer of passengers between railway trains and steamer plying between Newport News and Norfolk. It has two railway tracks and is covered by a train shed. It is in good condition, with available length of dockage of 800 feet, and depth of water of 18 feet. Pier 2 is an open pier for foreign and coastwise freight traffic, and is of open-pile construction 590 feet long, 53 feet wide. Its condition is good. The length of dockage available is 1,180 feet, and the depth of water 30 feet. The pier has five railway tracks and one 35-ton locomotive crane. Freight is moved by hand trucks, locomotive crane, and ships' derricks. º Pier 3 is an open pier for foreign and coastwise traffic, 790 feet long, of which 204 feet at shore end is of solid filled bulkhead con- struction, and the remainder of open pile construction, all in good condition. The length of dockage available is 1,576 feet, and the depth of water 30 feet. The pier has four railway tracks and one small derrick. Freight is moved by hand trucks and derrick. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 763 Pier 4 is a covered pier for foreign and coastwise traffic of open pile construction, 650 feet long, 160 feet wide. It has one 2-story frame freight house, 615 feet long, 140 feet wide, and two aprons 10 feet wide. Its condition is fair. The length of dockage available is 1,300 feet, and the depth of water 30 feet. There are two sunken tracks on first floor of house and one track on second floor. Freight is moved by hand and by ships' derricks. Pier 5 is a covered pier for foreign and coastwise traffic, 810 feet long, 170 feet wide. The inshore half is of solid filled bulkhead con- struction, the remainder of open pile construction. The pier has one 1-story steel frame, steel sheathed freight house, 797 feet long, 144 feet wide, and an apron 12 feet wide on one side. The condition of pier is good. The length of dockage available is 1,620 feet, and the depth of water 30 feet. The pier has no mechanical appliances for moving freight. It has two sunken tracks in middle of freight house and one on upstream apron. Freight is moved by hand and by ships' derricks. Pier 6 is a covered pier for coastwise traffic, 710 feet long, of which 300 linear feet, at shore end, is of solid filled bulkhead construction, and the remainder of open pile construction. It has one 1-story frame freight house, 697 feet long, 144 feet wide, and two aprons 12 feet wide. Its condition is good. The length of dockage available is 1,420 feet, and the depth of water 20 feet. There are two sunken tracks in middle of pier, and seven 3-ton electric cranes on the sides of the tracks. Freight is moved by the cranes and by hand trucks. Pier8 is a covered pier for foreign and coastwise traffic of open pile, construction, 810 feet long, 194 feet wide. It has one 1-story frame freight house 800 feet long, 171 feet wide, an apron 15 feet wide on upper side and an apron 7 feet wide on lower side. Its condition is good. The length of dockage available is 1,620 feet, and the depth of water 30 feet. An overhead belt conveyor bridge extends along the lower side of the pier from the grain elevator on shore. The bridge has two belt conveyors, one 40 inches wide, the other 24 inches wide. The estimated aggregate capacity of the conveyors is 350,000 to 450,000 bushels in 24 hours. The grain elevator serving the pier has a storage capacity of 950,000 bushels and a receiving capacity of 350,000 bushels in 24 hours. There are two sunken tracks in middle of pier and one track on the upstream apron. There is one 30-ton electrically operated derrick on upper side. Pier 9 is a steel electrically operated coal pier, used principally for furnishing cargo coal. It is of practically the same design as Norfolk & Western Railroad Coal Pier 4 at Lamberts Point. It is 1,200 feet long, 67 feet wide, 90 feet high above low water, and is supported on concrete-filled steel cylinders. It has two 70-ton car dumpers and two 120-ton elevators. The pier has a maximum capacity of about 5,400 tons per hour. Its average monthly output during 1918 was about 422,000 long tons and its total output for the year 5,064,000 long tons. The pier was constructed in 1913. It is in good condi- tion. The length of dockage available is 2,400 feet, and the depth of water 30 feet. The pier is entirely suitable for quick-loading vessels. Pier 10 is a covered coal supply pier, used solely by the United States Navy in 1918 for the transfer of bunker coal from barges to transports. It is of open pile construction, 450 feet long, 56 feet wide, and has an apron 5 feet wide on lower side and one 15 feet 764 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. wide on upper side. The pier has one 1-story frame pier house 450 feet long, 56 feet wide, used for office, repair shop, and storeroom. The pier is in good condition. The length of dockage available is 900 feet and the depth of water 30 feet. There is one track on the upstream apron. The pier has six derricks on its lower side for han- dling six electrically operated coaling machines, each with an estimated capacity of 35 tons per hour. Other equipment comprises six elec- tric elevator conveyors, for attaching to ships' sides, each having an estimated capacity of 35 tons per hour, and two Panama steam fueling machines, each with an estimated capacity of 75 tons per hour. Pier 12 is a coal pier, used principally for furnishing bunker coal. It is of open pile construction, 850 feet long, 59 feet wide, with a timber trestle 60 feet high above low water. The pier was constructed in 1906. It is in fair condition. The length of dockage available is 1,700 feet and the depth of water 30 feet. It has two outside tracks inclined on a light grade outshore, and one middle track inclined shoreward on a 3 per cent grade. The pier is operated with drop- bottom road cars, moved up a trestle incline to the top of pier by a locomotive. The coal is dumped into chutes, thence moving by gravity to vessels. The estimated capacity of pier under normal conditions is 156,000 tons per month. The pier is suitable for furnishing bunker coal and for loading cargoes on slow-loading vessels. The terms and conditions of public use of the piers are governed by the railroad company's tariff. The terminal is barely suitable for existing conditions. One of the greatest present needs is an increase in grain elevator capacity. One of the two elevators of the terminal was burned in September, 1915, and has not been replaced. Increased capacity for furnishing coal will also be required to meet further development of tributary coal fields. None of the piers is of modern design excepting Coal Pier 9. With the exception of Pier 8, which has belt conveyors for moving grain, none of the freight piers is equipped with appliances for rapid transfer of freight between rail- road cars and vessels. The only railroad at Newport News is the Chesapeake & Ohio. Connection is made by car ferries with that company's Norfolk terminal and with the Port Norfolk terminal of the New York, Phila- delphia & Norfolk Railroad. Through the latter terminal, connection is made with the Norfolk & Portsmouth Belt Line Railroad, through which transfer of freight between the Chesapeake & Ohio and railroads traversing South Atlantic and Gulf States is effected. The terms and conditions of using the car ferries and belt line railroad are pub- lished in tariffs of the respective carriers. There is interchange of foreign and coastwise traffic between rail and water. For the former there are no contracts. The interchange for the latter is governed by published tariff of through rates. Improved city streets adjoin the terminal's piers. JAMES RIVER, VA. This river is a tidal stream formed by the junction of the Cow- pasture and Jackson Rivers, in Botetourt County, Va. It flows easterly 320 miles and empties into Hampton Roads at Newport News, Va. The portion under improvement extends from its mouth WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. '765 to Richmond, a distance of 103.8 miles, which is the length of the tidal reach. The mean tidal ranges under normal conditions for different parts of the river are as follows: Mouth, 2.5 feet; Jamestown, 1.85 feet; City Point, 2.8 feet; Dutch Gap, 3.5 feet; Richmond, 3.9 feet. According to the latest survey made in October, 1917, the river has a depth of 18 feet at mean low water between Richmond and the mouth, except at Rocklanding Shoal, 89 miles below Richmond, where the depth was 16% feet. The project provides for a channel from the mouth to Richmond 22 feet deep at mean low water and 200 to 400 feet wide and for widen- inº channel at Richmond to form a turning basin. . he principal articles of water-borne commerce are forest and farm products, oil, sand and gravel, and general merchandise. The amount of annual commerce varies from about 450,000 to 600,000 short tons. About one-third of the commerce pertains to Richmond and two-thirds to the landings below Richmond. There is inter- change of traffic between rail and water at three of the Richmond wharves, details of which are given in the accompanying reports. There is also interchange at the three railroad terminals below Richmond, the details of which are given in the reports for these terminals. - At Richmond, the city owns 735 linear feet of water front and the Richmond Dock. The Chamber of Commerce of Richmond has dis- played great interest in having the river improved and in utilizing the navigation facilities. The city has expended large sums of money during the past 49 years in assisting in the improvement. It main- tains a small dredge for removing deposits of sand from the harbor and a steam tug #. breaking ice during the winter and otherwise assisting navigation. There are no facilities at Richmond or at other points on the river except at Newport News, Va., for coaling, repairs, and storage. By small expenditures at Richmond for spur tracks to the city wharf and city dock, and for installing appliances for trans- ferring freight between rail and water at these terminals, conditions for interchange of traffic between rail and water would be greatly benefited. The types of vessels used on the river are steamers of 100 to 1,000 tons, drawing 6 to 14 feet, small sailing vessels, and barges drawing up to 15 feet. The river's commerce pertaining to Richmond is handled in the basin of the former James River & Kanawha Canal, known as Richmond Dock, and at nine wharves at and in the immediate vicinity of the city. Below Richmond commerce is served by 32 wharves. Richmond Dock belongs to the city and is open to public use on very moderate terms. Of the nine Richmond wharves, seven are private and two belonging to the city are free to public use. With one exception, viz, the Southern Railway Wharf, which is of stone, all of the James River wharves are pile and timber structures. Richmond Dock and the Richmond wharves are adjacent to spur tracks or sidings connecting with the main lines of local railroads. The two city wharves have a total frontage of 735 feet and have no physical connection with railways. Seven of the private wharves at and just below Richmond have a frontage of about 1,800 linear feet, and generally are equipped with either telpherage or steam ma- chinery for the handling of freight. Of the wharves below Richmond, 766 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 17 are open to public use at moderate wharfage charges, 7 are free, and 8 are solely for use of their owners. None has appliances for facilitating the handling of freight. With the exception of three wharves with railroad connections, all are remote from railroads. The locations and descriptions of the wharves having railroad con- nections are as follows: At City Point, 32% miles below Richmond, connecting with a branch of the Norfolk & Western Railroad; at Claremont, 58 miles below Richmond, connecting with a branch of the Southern Railway; at Scotland, about 68 miles below Richmond, connecting with the Surry, Sussex & Southhampton Railway. The dock at Richmond and the wharves at the city and between it and the river's mouth aré adequate for the commerce. Richmond Dock.-The dock is situated on the left bank of James River, between Seventeenth and Twenty-fifth Streets, Richmond, Va. It is 3,450 feet long and 75 to 150 feet wide, with a center depth of 15 feet. It is entered from James River by a masonry lock 180 feet long, 35 feet wide, with a lift of 15 feet. The city streets adjacent to the dock are at an elevation of 18 feet above mean low water. The dock was formerly a part of a basin of the former James River and Kanawha Canal. Water for lockage is supplied through a part of the canal by a feeder from James River, about 8 miles above Richmond. The left side of the dock is a masonry wall, the right side an earth embankment. The dock is in fair condition. The length of dockage available is about 3,000 feet, with a depth of 12% feet. The mechanical appliances consist of a few derricks for handling heavy freight. Light freight is moved by hand trucks. The dock belongs to the city of Richmond. It is open to all users on the same terms. Lockage and berthage, the latter at $1 per diem, are charged only for empty vessels entering the dock for laying up. Freight tolls, paid by the consignee, are 15 cents per ton for coal, 25 cents per 1,000 feet b. m. for lumber, 20 cents per 1,000 for brick, and one-tenth cent per cubic foot for mer- chandise. The dock is fairly suitable for small vessels. Spur tracks of the Southern Railway extend along both of its sides, not near enough, however, to permit of easy interchange of traffic between rail and water, of which there is none. Improved city streets adjoin the dock on its left side. PAGAN RIVER, VA. This river is a tidal stream, rising in Isle of Wight County, Va. It flows northerly 10 miles and empties into James River. The portion under improvement extends from its mouth to Smithfield, a distance of 5 miles. - The project provides for a channel from the mouth to Smithfield, 80 feet wide and 10 feet deep at mean low water. The controlling depth is at the mouth and is 74 feet at mean low water. The principal articles of water-borne commerce are peanuts, garden truck, and general merchandise. The total tonnage during 1918 was 27,000 short tons. Nearly all of the commerce is carried by a steamer of about 350 net registered tons. The river is also used by small Sailing vessels and gasoline launches. There are 16 wharves or landings on Pagan River, of which 14 are at Smithfield and 2 at Battery Park, about 1 mile above the river's mouth. All of the WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 767 wharves are small. Those at Smithfield are of solid filled bulkhead construction and, with a few exceptions, are in poor condition. The Battery Park wharves are of open pile construction and are in fair condition. The length of dockage available at Smithfield is about 1,100 feet, with depths of 3 to 10 feet. At Battery Park the length of dockage is about 85 feet and the depth of water 11 feet. None of the wharves on the river has mechanical appliances for handling freight. The principal wharf at Smithfield belongs to the Old Dominion Steamship Co., three belong to peanut factories, one is a public wharf, and the remaining nine belong to storekeepers. The steamship wharf is not open to public use. The public wharf is open to all on equal terms. The private wharves are used by the owners in conducting their business and seven are open to the public at uniform rates of wharfage. One of the Battery Park wharves is used by the Old Dominion Steamship Co., the other by its owner, O. A. Bloxom. , Neither is open to ji. use. All of the wharves are suitable for the business transacted at them. There is no railroad near Pagan River. Freight is shipped to Newport News by boat and is there transferred to other boats and carried on through bills of lading with freight charges prorated. The Smithfield wharves are connected with the town streets by a partly improved road. The Battery Park wharves have a partly improved road leading to them. The wharves are adequate for present and prospective require- ments. In view of the small amount of traffic on the river and the remoteness of the river from a railroad, the construction of a joint rail and water terminal would not be justified. NANSEMOND RIVER, VA. This river is a tidal stream. It rises in Nansemond County, Va., flows in a northerly direction, and empties into Hampton Roads. The portion under improvement extends from its mouth to Suffolk, Va., a distance of 18 miles. - The mean tidal range at Suffolk Bridge is 3.4 feet, and at Newmans Point, 2.8 feet. The controlling depth on the improvement is 9 feet at mean low water. The existing project provides for a channel 100 feet wide and 12 feet deep at mean low water from the head of navigation to the mouth of the Western Branch, a distance of 7.37 miles, and the excavation of a turning basin at Suffolk Bridge, 200 feet square; also for a channel of the same depth and from 200 to 400 feet wide, 8.3 miles long, from the Western Branch to Town Point, 2.3 miles above the mouth. - The principal articles of commerce carried on the river are lumber, brick, fertilizer, and lime. The total tonnage of water-borne com- merce during 1918 was about 49,000 short tons, carried on small sail- ing vessels and barges towed by steam tugs and on motor boats. No steamer plied on the river during 1918. There are four small private wharves at Suffolk and two large wharves. One of the latter belongs to the Old Dominion Steamship Co. It is used for storing the com- any's property, and in connection with repairing the company's Hºs. The other wharf belongs to the Norfolk Southern Railroad Co. There is little traffic at this wharf. There are two storehouses 768 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. on the wharf leased to the Piedmont Mount Airy Guano Co. Below Suffolk there are 11 wharves, situated as follows: Name of wharf and distance below Suffolk. Miles.

The wharves are of open pile con- struction. None has mechanical appliances for handling freight. These wharves are privately owned and are open to public use on equal terms. Small wharfage is charged. The wharves are adequate for the present and prospective traffic, but none of them has physical connection with railroads except the Norfolk Southern Railroad Wharf at Suffolk. Through the above connection is also furnished to the Norfolk & Western Railroad. The terms and conditions of using the connection are governed by tariff of switching charges. There is no interchange of freight between rail and water on the river. Formerly, while the Old Dominion steamers used the river, much of the freight at the Norfolk Southern Wharf was handled on through bills of lading. The wharves at Suffolk are connected with the town streets. A partly improved road extends to each of the wharves below Suffolk. There has been no cooperation with the Government by the public in improving the river. No additional joint rail and water terminal is required on the river. CAPE CHARLES CITY HARBOR, VA. This harbor is on the eastern shore of Chesapeake Bay, 37 miles northeast of Norfolk, Va. The harbor proper is an artificial one, about 560 by 900 feet, belonging to the New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk Railroad. It has an area of about 11 acres and is 14 feet deep. Its entrance is through Cherrystone Inlet. The existing project provides for dredging channels through Cherrystone Inlet and bar 16 feet deep at mean low water and 100 feet and 200 feet wide, respectively; the dredging of an entrance channel 100 feet wide and 16 feet deep at mean low water; the dredging of the harbor, 11 acres in area, to 14 feet deep at mean low water; and the construction of stone jetties on each side of the entrance to the harbor. Under ordinary conditions the mean tidal range is 2.4 feet. Practically all of the commerce of the harbor is the traffic of the railroad company carried on its steamers and car floats plying between Cape Charles City, Va., and Norfolk Harbor. Garden truck, fish, and oysters are brought to the harbor in small sailing vessels and launches. The vessels using the harbor are steamers of about 850 net registered tons, drawing 11 feet, tugs drawing 12 feet, barges drawing 10 feet, and small craft drawing from 3 to 7 feet. There are five wharves and two transfer slips in the area covered by this harbor, with a total length of dockage available of about 1,500 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 769 feet. One of the wharves, a small platform, is controlled by the Government. The remaining five belong to the railroad company. Of these, two are open to general public use without charge, under certain restrictions imposed by the company, and the others are used exclusively by the company for landing passengers, baggage, and freight, coaling tugs, and in loading and discharging freight cars from car floats from Norfolk Harbor. The Government wharf is used for landing reserves from Cherrystone naval base. Fairly good roads connect the wharves on the northern side of the harbor with the streets of Cape Charles City. . The traffic is very much congested and the facilities are not adequate for existing COIſlin GI’C6. New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk Railroad terminal.—The ter- minal is situated at Cape Charles City. . It comprises a freight and passenger pier 720 feet long, formed of solid #. bulkhead con- struction with concrete sheet piling; a freight house with 14,000 square feet floor area; a shed with a floor area of 23,000 square feet; two car ferry transfer bridges; and car yards with 33 miles of track- age. The terminal is in good condition. The length of dockage available is 700 feet, 16 feet deep. The pier has no mechanical appliances. Freight is moved by hand trucks. The pier and transfer bridges are used exclusively by the company's vessels. The terminal is adapted to the purpose for which used. The terminal has no physical connection with other local railroads. Freight is transferred º car floats between it and the company’s Port Norfolk terminal. There is no interchange of traffic between rail and water. The highway connections are partly improved country roads. ONANCOCK RIVER, WA. This is a tidal stream. It rises in Accomac County, Va., flows in a westerly direction about 6.5 miles, and empties into Chesapeake Bay. The portion under improvement extends from the mouth of the river to Onancock, Va., a distance of 5 miles, which is the approximate length of the tidal reach. The controlling depth is 7 feet at mean low water and the mean tidal range 1.7 feet. The existing project provides for dredging a channel across the outer bar, 200 feet wide and 8 feet deep at mean low water, and for straightening the river channel by cutting off projecting shoals to a depth of 7 feet at mean low water. . The principal articles of commerce are agricultural products, canned goods, fish, oysters, and lumber. The amount of commerce during the past five years has averaged about 18,000 short tons. Steamers of 500 to 600 net registered tons, belonging to the Baltimore, Chesapeake & Atlantic Railroad Co., ply between Baltimore, Md., and the wharves on the river. There is a wharf at Onancock belonging to the railroad company. and one each at Poplar Cover and at Finneys. The last two are privately owned. The wharves are open to public use on payment of wharfage. There is no railroad connection with any of the wharves. A country road extends to each of them. The wharves are adequate for present and prospective requirements. 164681—IH. Doc. 652, 66–2—49 770 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. wATERWAY FROM NORFOLK, VA., TO THE SOUNDS OF NORTH CAROLINA. This water route extends south from Norfolk, Va., to Albemarle Sound, a total distance of 68.7 miles. The project provides for dredg- ing the following channels: Deep Creek, Va., 3 miles long; Turners Cut, N. C., 3.8 miles long; through a shoal in the Pasquotank River, N. C., near Ship Yard Bar, 1,800 feet long; and through a bar in Croatan Sound near Croatan Lighthouse, 1,200 feet long. A width of 100 feet and a depth of 10 feet at mean low water are the project dimensions of all the channels named except that in Croatan Sound, which was to be 200 feet wide and 12 feet deep at mean low water. The route followed includes the Dismal Swamp Canal, which con- tains two locks, each 250 feet long and 39 feet wide. The canal belongs to and is maintained by a private corporation which charges toll for vessels using it. In Deep Creek and the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River the mean tidal range under ordinary condi- tions is about 3 feet. The principal articles of commerce are forest products, fertilizer, coal, and miscellaneous merchandise. The total tonnage of water- borne commerce on the waterway during 1918 was 190,605 short tons. The classes of vessels using the waterway are small steamers, sailing vessels, and barges with drafts of 5 to 9 feet. There are three small privately owned wharves on the Dismal Swamp Canal, viz, at Deep Creek, Va., Wallaceton, Va., and South Mills, N. C., all free to public use. At seven other points on the canal are freight houses in poor condition, used occasionally, which are also free. Between the southern end of the canal and Elizabeth City, on the Pasquotank River, there are three small private land- ings free to public use. At Elizabeth City there are 18 wharves having an aggregate dockage available of about 2,400 linear feet. with depths of 8 to 26 feet. Four of these wharves, at the street ends, with an aggregate length of about 200 feet, belong to the town and are free to public use. Of the remaining 14, 2 belong to the Nor- folk Southern Railroad and 12 are privately owned. . Six of the latter are open to the public on payment of wharfage, and six are used by their owners in conducting their business. At one of the wharves belonging to the Norfolk Southern Railroad Co. is the only physical connection between rail and water on the waterway. This railroad interchanges freight with steamers and prorates freight rates with boats plying to North River and intermediate points and to Roanoke Island, Fairfield, N. C., Alligator River points, and Newbegun Creek. Below Elizabeth City there are two wharves on the eastern side of the Pasquotank River, with a warehouse at each, one at Shiloh, 7 miles south of Elizabeth City, and another at Old Trap, 10 miles south of Elizabeth City. These are open to public use upon payment of wharfage. The wharves on the waterway are of open-pile or solid- filled bulkhead construction. None has appliances for handling freight except one at Elizabeth City, N. C., belonging to the Crystal Ice & Coal Co., which has a steam derrick. All of the wharves at Elizabeth City are connected with the town streets. All other wharves on the waterway are reached by country roads. The ter- minals are adequate for existing commerce and there is apparently no need for additional terminals. There are three small marine rail- ways at Elizabeth City. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 771 PERQUIMANS RIVER, N. C. Perquimans River rises in Gates County, N. C., flows southeasterly about 40 miles, and empties into Albemarle Sound. The head of navigation is at Newbys Bridge, N. C., about. 26 miles above the mouth. Between 1876 and 1905 the Federal Government constructed at Hertford, N.C., a channel 200 feet wide and 9 feet deep at mean low water. The project was completed in 1905, since which year no improvement work has been done by the Government. The con- trolling depth to Hertford, N. C., is 8 feet. The stream is used largely for rafting logs, the principal article of water-borne com- merce. Small amounts of farm produce and general merchandise are carried on light-draft steamers of 40 to 50 net registered tons. The tonnage carried annually on the river is estimated at 40,000 short tons. The terminals, on this river are crude. They appear, however, to be adequate for the present traffic and that of the immediate future. The terminals consist principally of bank lar dirgs and a few plat- forms or small wharves. There are 10 of these landirgs and 5 of the platforms between Newby's Bridge, N. C., and Hertford, N. C., a distance of 14 miles, and 5 lardings and 3 platforms between the latter place and the river's mouth. None of the landings or platforms has appliances for hardling freight. They are privately owned and are open to the public on equal terms. The landirgs are suitable for the small-amount of traffic. The only railway connection with the river is at Hertford, N. C., where there is a track belonging to the Norfolk Southern Railroad Co. This company interchanges traffic with small steamboats at Hertford, There are no highway connections for the landings except at Hertford, N. C., and at other points where public roads touch the river at the landings. - EDENTON BAY, N. C. Edenton Bay, N. C., is on the northern shore of Albemarle Sound near its western end. The head of navigation is at Edenton, N. C., which is at the head of the bay, 2 miles from deep water in the sound. Between 1879 and 1902 the Federal Government constructed at Edenton a channel 9 feet deep by 150 to 200 feet wide, and a turning basin of the same depth covering an area of about 10 acres. Since the completion of the above work in 1902 no work has been done by the Government. . The amount of commerce under normal conditions has range from 150,000 to upward of 200,000 short tons. The vessels using the bay comprise small steamers, motor boats, small sailing vessels, and 'barges. The three principal wharves at Edenton are a public wharf, one used by the Albemarle Steam Navigation Co., and one belonging to and used by the Norfolk Southern Railroad Co. There are also several small wharves used by motor boats for unloading fish. The wharves are either of solid filled bulkhead or open pile construction. They have no mechanical appliances for handling freight. The pºlic wharf belongs to the city, and is open to all on equal terms of wharfage. At the Norfolk Southern Wharf there is interchange of traffic under prorating contracts between the railroad and the Albe- marle Steam Navigation Co., which line operates on the Chowan, 772 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Meherrin, and Blackwater Rivers. The streets of Edenton extend to the wharves. The wharves are adequate for present requirements and for those of the immediate future. There is no apparent need for an additional joint rail and water terminal. INLAND WATERWAY, NORFOLK, VA., TO BEAUFORT INLET, N. C. This waterway is 186 miles long. With the exception of four land cuts, which connect existing watercourses, it follows natural water- ways. The northern terminal is at Norfolk, Va. The waterway follows successively the Southern Branch of Elizabeth River, the Virginia Cut of the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal, North Landing River, Va., and N. C.; Currituck Sound, N. C.; Coinjock Bay, N. C.; the North Carolina Cut of the Albemarle & Chesapeake Canal; and North River, N. C., to Albemarle Sound, a distance of 63.5 miles. The route then crosses Albemarle Sound from the mouth of North River, N. C., to the mouth of the Alligator River, N. C., a distance of 12.9 miles. Between the southern shore of Albemarle Sound and the mouth of the Neuse River, N. C., it follows successively the Alli- gator River, N. C., a proposed land cut to Rose Bay, N. C.; and Pam- lico Sound, N. C., a distance of 72.6 miles. Between Pamlico Sound at the mouth of Neuse River and Beaufort Inlet, N. C., the route follows the existing waterway via Neuse River, Adams Creek, Adams Creek Canal, Core Creek, and Newport River to Beaufort Inlet, N. C., a distance of 37 miles. With the exception of the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River, the Adams Creek Canal, Core Creek, and Newport River, which are tidal streams, the watercourses fol- lowed are nontidal, with very sluggish currents, which are due prin- cipally to the influence of winds. In the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River, the normal mean tidal range is 2.7 feet. In Beaufort Inlet the mean range for normal tides is 2.6 feet. The controlling depth in the waterway is 8.5 feet. The existing project provides for a depth of 12 feet at mean low water between Norfolk, Va., and Beaufort, N. C., with bottom widths varying between 90 feet in land cuts to 300 feet in wide waters. About 43 per cent of the project has been completed, representing about 50 miles of channel com- pleted to project dimensions. The principal articles of water-borne commerce are coal, fertilizer, gasoline, oil, agricultural and forest products, grain, and miscellaneous food and other merchandise. The tonnage of traffic on this water- way during 1918 amounted to about 132,000 short tons. The classes of vessels plying on the waterway are small steamers with drafts of 4 to 8 feet, steam tugs with drafts of 5 to 9 feet, barges drawing up to 9 feet, small sailing vessels, and motor boats. Con- siderable rafting is also done. Below Norfolk nearly all of the ter- minals are landings or small wharves as follows: Two small wharves in the Virginia Cut of the canal at Great Bridge, Va., 0.4 mile below the lock at the head of the canal, one belonging to the Farmers’ Union, the other to Frank Hall; a landing at Mount Pleasant, 3.4 miles below the lock; a landing at North Landing, 9 miles below the lock; two landings in the upper part of North Landing River, viz, at West Landing, and Pungo; a wharf at Munden, Va., on lower North Landing River, 22 miles below the lock; a wharf at Knotts Island in Currituck Sound, 30 miles below the lock; two wharves on the WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 773 Carolina Cut of the canal, one at the Farmers Manufacturing Co.'s mill, 36% miles below the lock, and the other at Coinjock, 37 miles below the lock; one at Barnetts Creek; one at Jarvisburg, N. C., 50 miles below the lock; one 1% miles below Jarvisburg and one at Powells Point or Newbern Landing. None of the wharves has ap- pliances for handling freight. They are of open pile construction. The depths of water at the wharves and landings vary from 6 to 8 feet. As a rule, no wharfage is charged and the same privilege is extended to all on equal terms. None of the wharves has physical connection with railroads except at Munden, the terminus of the Currituck Branch of the Norfolk Southern Railroad. Steamers do not use this wharf. There are ordinary country roads leading to the wharves and landings. The wharves appear to be adequate for present requirements, also, for those of the immediate future, until there is considerable development of the adjacent country. No additional joint rail and water terminal appears to be required. BLACKWATER RIVER, VA. Blackwater River unites with the Nottoway River to form the Chowan River, which empties into Albemarle Sound. The ruling depth in the river is 7 feet. The existing project provides for the removal of obstructions from the 13 miles of river below Franklin, so as to afford easy naviga- tion for boats of 7-foot draft. The principal articles carried on the river are peanuts, cotton, and fertilizer. The annual tonnage amounts to about 4,000 short tons. º vessels using the river are steamers of about 200 tons and small 8,I'9'éS. #. water terminals consist of a wharf and warehouse at Franklin, Va., and 3 small wharves between Franklin and the mouth of the river. There is physical connection between rail and water carriers only at Franklin, at which place the Seaboard Air Line has a track on the wharf. At Franklin the town streets adjoin the wharf. County roads extend to the wharves below Franklin. The terminal facilities are adequate for the present and prospective needs of commerce. MEHERRIN RIVER, N. C. The river empties into the Chowan River, N. C., at a point about 39 miles above Albemarle Sound, N. C. The available depth in the channel is 7 feet at mean low water. The project provides for the removal of shoals, sunken logs, snags, and other obstructions, so as to make the river safely navigable for vessels of 7 feet draft between the mouth and Murfreesboro, a distance of 12 miles. The pººl articles of commerce carried on the river are peanuts, cotton, fertilizer, and logs. The annual tonnage has increased during the past 5 years from about 16,000 to 51,000 short tons. The classes of vessels plying on the river are steamers of about 100 tons, small barges, and gasoline boats. There are five small pile wharves, with roughly constructed wooden warehouses, on this river, two of which are at Murfreesboro, N. C., and three between this point and 774 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the mouth of the river. All of these wharves are privately owned but are open to general public use on equal terms upon the payment of wharfage. There are no railroads near the navigable part of the river. There are county roads to all of the wharves. - The terminal facilities are adequate for existing and prospective COIIll IlêI’CG. ROANOKE RIVER, N. C. Roanoke River is formed by the junction of the Dan and Staunton rivers at Clarksville, Va., and flows into Albemarle Sound, N. C. The portion under improvement extends from Weldon, N. C., to the mouth, a distance of 129 miles. The controlling depths in the chan- nel at mean low water throughout the year are as follows: Between the mouth and Hamilton, a distance of 62 miles, 10 feet; between ºlton and a point 2 miles below Weldon, a distance of 65 miles, 3 feet. The project provides for removing obstructions between the mouth and i. so as to furnish a channel adequate for vessels navigat- ing the North Carolina sounds, and by dredging, snagging, and regu- lation, securing a channel with a least width of 50 feet and a depth of 5 feet at mean low water from Hamilton to Weldon. The principal articles of water-borne commerce are cotton, fertilizer, peanuts, forest products, and miscellaneous merchandise. The an- nual tonnage during 1918 was 51,000 short tons. The vessels using the river consist of motor boats, small barges, and two steamers, one of 46 and the other of 152 net registered tons, drawing, respectively, 3 and 5 feet. - The terminals on the river are as follows: At Weldon, N. C., one wharf; between Weldon and Plymouth, N. C., two wharves and 20 warehouses, located as follows: Miles e Ware- e Ware- Locality. à houses. Locality. #. houses.

Of the Plymouth wharves one is public, free to all; another, a private wharf, is also free; four are private, not open to public use; three private, open to all on equal terms; and one belonging to the Norfolk Southern Railroad Co. The wharves at Plymouth adjoin the streets. The wharves and warehouses elsewhere on the river adjoin ordinary country roads. - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 775 The only wharf on the river having physical connection with a rail- road is that of the Norfolk Southern Railroad at Plymouth. . At this wharf there is interchange of traffic under prorating agreements, be- tween the railroad and steamers plying between Plymouth and points on the Roanoke and Cashie Rivers. The Atlantic Coast Line Rail- road enters Plymouth and has indirect rail connection with the Nor- folk Southern Wharf. The wharves and landings on the river are adequate for its traffic. There has been no cooperation by the public in improving the river. An additional rail and water terminal is not required. - -- Ç : WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. NORFOLK, VA.

C., DISTRICT. COL. J. R. D. MA THESON, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. SCUPPERNONG RIVER, N. C. This stream rises in the center of the peninsula between Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds. It flows in a general northerly direction for about 30 miles, emptying into Albemarle Sound. The improvement consists in maintaining a channel 9 feet deep at mean low water across the bar at the mouth. There are about 26 wharves on the stream, of which 9 are below Columbia, 11 at Columbia, and 6 above, all of timber construction with pile foundations, none of which is worthy of special description. These facilities are adequate for present commerce. - The principal items of commerce are farm products, general mer- chandise, fertilizer, and timber, carried by gas, sail, and steam boats and flats drawing from 3 to 6 feet except timber, which is rafted. The commerce is practically all with Elizabeth City and Edenton. A branch line of the Norfolk Southern Railroad has its terminus at Columbia, and there is a small interchange of traffic between rail and Water. - w MANTEO (SHALLOWBAG) BAY, N. C. This improvement is situated on the northeastern side of Roanoke Island, N. C., about 45 miles southeast of Elizabeth City. The im- provement consists in providing a channel 100 feet wide and 6 feet deep from deep water in the sound to the town of Manteo, the county seat of Dare County. There are about 17 wharves in this harbor, all of timber construction with pile foundations, none of which is worthy of special description. The principal items of commerce are water . and general merchandise, which come into the harbor in small boats and are transshipped to Elizabeth City by a steamer drawing 5 feet, where connection is made with the Norfolk Southern Railroad. The existing facilities are considered adequate for the present commerce. WATERWAY CONNECTING SWAN QUARTER WITH DEEP BAY, N. C. This waterway provides a channel 6 feet deep protected from the rough waters of th. sound. There are no wharves along the water- way and none is needed. The commerce is carried between Wash- ington, Belhaven, and Swan Quarter. PAMLICO AND TAR RIVER, N. C. The two names are applied to the same stream, it being known as the Pamlico below Washington, N. C., and as the Tar above that point. ... This stream flows in a general southeasterly direction for 217 miles and empties into Pamlico Sound. Washington, 38 miles 806 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 807 above the mouth; Greenville, 22 miles farther; and Tarboro, 27 miles above Greenville, are the principal towns. The improvement consists of maintaining a channel 10 feet deep to Washington, 6 feet deep to Greenville, and a channel clear of snags to Tarboro. _There are 72 wharves along the stream, of which 53 are at or near Washington, 8 below, and 11 above. They are practically all of timber construction with pile foundation. They have a frontage of from 10 to 400 feet, with a total of about 5,000 feet. The most important are those at Washington, of which 44 are privately owned, with a frontage of about 4,000 feet; 3 are owned by railroads, with a frontage of about 260 feet; 2 are owned by the city, with a frontage of 282 feet. The United States owns 1, with a frontage of 188 feet. The principal items of commerce are farm and water products, gen- eral merchandise, fertilizer, lumber, and timber. The total commerce for the year 1918 amounted to 200,303 tons, valued at $6,565,562. Coal, fertilizer, and lumber, amounting to 86,132 tons, was carried in barges and schooners drawing 6 to 9 feet, the remainder in sail, gas, and steam boats drawing 3 to 5 feet. There has been little general interest in the development of terminal facilities. The city of Washington some years ago acquired 150 feet of frontage adjacent to Bonner Street, which is 60 feet wide, with the view of building a public terminal, but has since leased this site to private parties. It is recommended that this site be developed as a ublic terminal, with physical connection with the Norfolk Southern ailroad, only one block distant, and mechanical handling devices installed, to facilitate the interchange of rail and water traffic. FISHING CREEK, N. C. This stream enters Tar River at a point about 56 miles above Washington, N. C. The improvement consists of maintaining a channel free from snags. ~ The commerce consists of cotton seed, meal, fertilizer, and timber, and is carried on freshet stages available three to five months during the year. There are no wharves on the stream, the freight being handled from convenient landing places. The existing facilities are considered adequate for the present commerce, which has its origin or destination at Tarboro, N. C. SOUTH RIVER, N. C. This stream flows in a general northeasterly direction for 13 miles and empties into Pamlico River about 12 miles above its mouth. The improvement consists of maintaining a channel 7 feet deep to Idalia, 10 miles above the mouth. Aurora, 8 miles above the mouth, is the principal town. There are 12 wharves on the stream, 5 at Aurora, 4 below, and 3 above. They are all of timber construc- tion with pile foundations and are considered adequate for the existing commerce. The principal items of commerce are lumber, timber, and cotton. Lumber is carried to Belhaven and northern points in barges and schooners drawing 6 to 8 feet. General merchandise and farm products are carried in gas and sail boats drawing 3 to 5 feet, prin- cipally to Belhaven and Washington. None of the wharves is worthy of special description. 808 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. BAY RIVER, N. C. This stream lies wholly within Pamlico County, N. C., and flows about 20 miles in an easterly direction into Pamlico Sound. The improvement consists in maintaining a channel 10 feet deep to Bayboro. There are 18 wharves on this stream, of which 6 are at Vandemere, 5 at Stonewall, and 2 at Bayboro, all of timber con- struction with pile foundations, none of which is worthy of special description. Bayboro, Stonewall, and Vandemere furnish prac- tically all of the commerce, which consists principally of fertilizer, lumber, general merchandise, farm, and water products. Fertilizer material is carried to Bayboro, and lumber shipped from Stonewall, by schooners and barges drawing 6 to 9 feet. The remainder of the commercé is carried in gasoline and sail boats drawing 3 to 4 feet. The timber is rafted. The wharves at the three towns men- tioned are considered adequate for the present commerce, with the possible exception of Bayboro. A public wharf located at the county road, where there is a spur track of the railroad, would facilitate the interchange of rail and water transportation. A pile- and-timber structure with simple hand-operated handling devices is recommended for this location. Fertilizer and lumber come from northern points and the remaining commerce is principally with New Bern. NEUSE RIVER, N. C. This stream flows in a general southeasterly direction to Pamlico Sound. Its total length is about 350 miles. New Bern, Kinston, and Goldsboro are the principal towns located on it. e The improvement consists in maintaining a channel 8 feet deep at dead low water to New Bern, 4 feet thence to Kinston, and thence free from snags to Smithfield, 150 miles above the mouth. There are 49 wharves on the stream, of which 36 are at or near New Bern, 9 below and 4 above. They are all of timber construction with pile foundation and have frontages varying from 3 to 828 feet, the total frontage being about 4,100 feet. The most important are those at New Bern, of which 22 are private, with a frontage of 2,330 feet; 4 are owned by the railroad, with a frontage of 207 feet; 1 is owned by the city, with a frontage of 60 feet; and 1 is owned by the United States, with a frontage of 210 feet. There is little general interest in the development of terminal facilities. The wharf of the E. H. &. J. A. Meadows fertilizer factory is one of the best examples of wharves in the eastern part of the district and is particularly well suited for unloading bulk cargoes of fertilizer material. It is equipped with the Hunt system, with a half-ton skip to elevate material from the hold of a vessel and dump into a bin on the trestle, whence 2-ton side-dump electric trolley cars dis- tribute the material to the factory. The principal items of commerce are cotton, seed, coal, fertilizer, general merchandise, potatoes, lumber, and timber. The total commerce for the year 1918 amounted to 215,863 tons, valued at $6,343,206. Coal, cement, fertilizer, and lumber are carried between New Bern and northern points in barges and schooners, drawing 6 to 9 feet. General merchandise, farm and water products, etc., are carried to and from New Bern and contiguous territory in WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 809 gas, sail and steam boats, drawing 3 to 5 feet. Timber is rafted from points on connecting waterways to mills at New Bern. The city owns, but has leased to private parties, a tract of land at the junction of the Neuse and Trent Rivers, between East Front and South Front Streets, which could be developed as a public wharf with physical connection with the railroad, only three blocks distant. A public wharf at this location, with mechanical handling devices and storage warehouses is recommended. SMITHS CREEK, N. C. This stream empties into Neuse River at the town of Oriental. The improvement at this location consists in dredging an entrance channel and basin at the town of Oriental to a depth of 10 feet. The principal items of commerce are cotton, cotton seed, water products, fertilizer, general merchandise, lumber, and farm products. Fer- tilizer and lumber are handled in barges drawing about 8 feet, and flats drawing 4 to 6 feet. The balance of the commerce is carried in sail and gasoline boats, drawing from 2 to 4 feet. Timber is rafted. Lumber and fertilizer come from northern points and the ºnder of the commerce has its origin or destination at New €I’I). There are 17 wharves in this harbor, all small and unimportant structures of timber construction with pile foundations. The exist- ing facilities are not considered adequate. The dilapidated bulk- head should be put in good condition and a public wharf provided at the end of the street where the railroad now terminates. The railroad should be extended on a pile trestle and simple hand-operated handling devices installed to facilitate the interchange of rail and water traffic. SWIFT CREEK, N. C. Swift Creek is a tributary of Neuse River, emptying into same about 75 miles above New Bern. The improvement consists in maintaining a "channel clear of snags to Vanceboro, the principal town, located about 12 miles above the mouth. The principal items of commerce are farm products, fertilizer, general merchandise, lumber, and timber, carried in steamers drawing 3 to 4 feet, except timber, which is rafted. The commerce is all local, having its origin or destination at New Bern. There are eight wharves on this stream, of which five are at Vanco- boro, all small and unimportant structures of timber construction with pile foundations, and adequate for the existing commerce. CONTENTNEA CREEK, N. C. Contentnea Creek empties into the Neuse River about 32 miles above New Bern. The improvement consists in maintaining a chan- nel free from snags to Snow Hill, 32 miles above the mouth. The principal items of commerce are cotton and its products, fer- tilizer and timber, carried on freshet stages in steamers drawing 3 to 4 feet, except timber, which is rafted. The commerce is all local, having its origin or destination at New Bern. There is only one wharf on the stream, and it is considered adequate for the present .COmmerce. 810 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. TRENT RIVER, N. C. This stream flows for 80 miles in an easterly direction, emptying into the Neuse River at New Bern. Polloksville, 18 miles, and Trenton, 38 miles above New Bern, are the principal towns. The portion of the stream at and opposite New Bern is an important part of the harbor at that place. The improvement provides a channel 8 feet deep at dead low water at New Bern, 6 feet thence to Polloksville, and 4 feet thence to Trenton. The total commerce for the year 1918 amounted to 145,505 tons, valued at $6,776,853, of which 113,919 tons, valued at $5,784,271, pertained to New Bern Harbor. The principal items of commerce were cotton, fertilizer, general merchandise, lumber, and timber. Lumber, fertilizer material, coal, and lime are carried in gas, sail, and steam boats, drawing 5 to 7 feet, except timber, which is rafted. Barge and schooner traffic is between New Bern and northern points. Other vessels run upstream to Polloksville and Trenton, or to points On connecting waterways, such as Beaufort, Swansboro, and Oriental. There are 51 wharves on this stream, of which 31 are at or opposite New Bern; 5 are at or near Polloksville, and 3 at Trenton. They are all of timber construction, with pile foundations, and are generally considered adequate for the present commerce, except at New Bern, as noted under Neuse River. BEAUFORT HARBOR, N. C. This harbor is located just inside Beaufort Inlet. Cape Fear is 93 miles southeast, Cape Lookout is 8 miles east, and Norfolk, Va., is 225 miles north. - The improvement consists in stopping the erosion at the inlet, providing a channel 7 feet deep through the Bulkhead Shoal at Beau- fort, one 10 feet deep to connect with the Inland Waterway, via Gallants Channel, and a turning basin at Beaufort. The commerce for 1918 amounted to 147,240 tons, valued at $5,274,000. The principal items were coal, fertilizes, lumber, and general merchandise. Coal, cement, fertilizer material and lumber are carried in barges drawing 8 to 9 feet, the remaining commerce being carried in gas and sail boats drawing 2 to 6 feet. The principal industries are fishing for both edible and fertilizer fish, and agricul- ture. General merchandise for a large territory is distributed by water from Beaufort and Morehead City. A large amount of com- merce was carried through the inland waterway and Beaufort Harbor in barges before the war and is expected to be resumed when the present scarcity of barges is overcome. There are 46 wharves contiguous to this harbor, all of timber con- struction with pile foundations. The most important are those of the menhaden fish factories, which are generally provided with mechanically operated elevators for transferring fish from the boats to the factories. One wharf at Beaufort is owned by the city; one at Pivers Island, and one at Fort Macon are owned by the United States, while the remaining ones are privately owned. The existing facilities are considered adequate, with the exception of those at Beaufort, where a public wharf is needed, having a physical connec- tion with the railroad, and simple hand-operated handling devices to facilitate the transfer of cargoes between rail and water carriers. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 811 WATERWAY FROM CORE SOUND TO BEAUFORT HARBOR. This is a tidal waterway, about 3 miles long, connecting Beaufort Harbor and the waters of Core Sound by an improved channel 5 feet deep at mean low water. There are five wharves along this Waterway, four of which are for menhaden fish factories and one for a lumber mill, all of timber construction with pile foundations. They are considered adequate for the present commerce. Principal items of commerce handled by these wharves are menhaden fish and its products, while other commerce consists of fertilizer, general mer- chandise, fish, oysters, and potatoes. The commerce is practically all local, having its origin or destination at Beaufort. BEAUFORT HARBOR TO JACKSON VILLE, N. C. This waterway extends in a westerly direction from Beaufort to Swansboro through the waters of Bogue Sound, thence in a general southwesterly direction by tidal channels through the marshes to New River, thence up that stream to Jacksonville, the county seat of Onslow County. The improvement consists in maintaining a chan- nel 3 feet deep at low water from Beaufort to Swansboro, thence 3 to 4 feet at high water to Craigs Point, thence 3 feet deep at low water to Jacksonville. There are 87 wharves along this waterway, of which 12 are at or near Jacksonville, 23 at or near Swansboro, all of timber construction with pile foundation. They are considered adequate for the present commerce. The principal items of commerce are farm and water products, lumber, crossties, and timber, carried by gas and sail boats and flats, drawing from 3 to 6 feet. Lumber is carried from Swansboro to Beaufort Harbor by flats and is reshipped to northern points in barges and schooners. The remaining products are carried from points on the waterway to Morehead City and New Bern, N. C. HARBOR AT MOREHEAD CITY, N. C. This harbor is situated inside Beaufort Inlet on the northern shore of Bogue Sound and adjacent to Beaufort Harbor. The improve- ment consists of maintaining a 10-foot channel connecting it with Beaufort Harbor. - . The commerce for 1918 amounted to 20,120 tons, valued at $1,623,237. The principal items are farm and water products, ice, and general merchandise, carried by gas and sail boats drawing 2 to 6 feet. The principal business is the marketing of edible fºsh and other water products brought in from the ocean and points on con- tiguous waterways and shipped by rail. There are 27 wharves contiguous to this harbor, all of timber con- struction with pile foundations. One is the city wharf, a pile struc- ture at the foot of a street with a frontage of 50 feet, open to use by all without charge. The existing facilities are considered adequate for the present commerce. BEAUFORT INLET, N. C. This inlet connects Beaufort Harbor with the Atlantic Ocean, and is about 225 miles south of Norfolk and 93 miles northeast of Cape Fear. The improvement consists of a channel 300 feet wide and 20 feet deep at mean low water across the bar. There are no wharves on this improvement, and none are needed. 812 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. CAPE FEAR RIVER, N. C., AT AND BELOW WILMINGTON. Cape Fear River at and below Wilmington is tidal, the average rise of the tide at the bar being 4% feet, 3% feet at Keg Island, and 24 feet at Wilmington. The existing project provides for a channel 26 feet deep at mean low water and 300 feet wide in the river, with a depth of 30 feet and a width of 400 feet over the Ocean Bar and an anchor- age basin at Wilmington, N. C., 2,000 feet long, 900 feet wide at the upper end and 1,100 feet at the lower end, with approaches 1,500 feet long at both ends. Vessels entering this harbor vary in size from small gasoline-driven “sharpies” drawing from 3 to 4 feet to the large ocean-going steam- ships and schooners drawing from 22 to 25 feet. Commerce consists of general merchandise, cotton, fertilizer materials, naval stores, lum- ber, timber, and shingles. The most important item is cotton. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 consisted of 459,062 tons, valued at $43,817,720. Wilmington Harbor comprises the entire width of the Cape Fear River and extends about 3 miles south from Hilton Bridge, the city being situated on the eastern bank. There is nearly a continuous line of wharves and docks extending south from Hilton Bridge on the east side of the river. The other bank, owing more than anything else to its location and lack of railroad facilities, has not been devel- oped and offers excellent opportunities for wharf and terminal con- struction. The railroad terminals of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad and the Seaboard Air Line Railway have large warehouses for storing urposes and are equipped with elevators for unloading vessels. hese wharves are in good condition. There are five wharves for loading cotton, each equipped with large warehouses for storing same. The Clyde Steamship Co. have a large covered wharf for loading and unloading general merchandise. The Springer Coal Co. has a coal dock equipped with elevator for unloading coal. They have no facilities for ji. other than the “wheelbarrow method.” A mod- ern coaling elevator is much needed. The Wilmington Compress & Warehouse Co. have a large wharf equipped with large warehouses, compresses, and unloading elevators. The city wharves comprise the frontage on the river intercepted by streets running east and west. There are seven of these wharves. They are open to carriers free of charge. A belt-line railroad encircles the city and places all the wharves on the east side of the river in close touch with the railroads leading from Wilmington. It is believed that terminal facilities at this port are suitable and adequate, except as noted, for present and prospective commerce. - The harbor is in charge of a harbor master, who collects a fee from all vessels entering the harbor. This fee varies from $3 for steamers under 100 tons net register up to $25 for steamers of 3,000 tons regis- ter. Vessels entering the river drawing over 6 feet of water are re- guired to take pilot unless the captain has papers for Cape Fear bar. Pilot fees are dependent on draft of vessels and vary from $10.76 to $267.66 per vessel. Generally all the wharves in the harbor are open to carriers in a minor way free of charge when not in use by the OWI) GI’S. There is a marine railway at this port of 1,500 tons capacity and two modern machine shops capable of making rather extensive marine repairs. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 813 The more important, terminals in this harbor are those of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad and Seaboard Air Line Railway. The water terminals owned by the Seaboard Air Line Railway comprise a total frontage, including slips, of 2,700 feet. These wharves con- tain six brick warehouses with a combined floor space of 180,834 square feet. In addition to this floor space, within the warehouses, platforms and wharves adjacent add approximately 65,000 square feet. The wharves are equipped with modern appliances for unload- ing, and the warehouses with distributing tracks. During the last seven years this company has spent one-half million dollars on its terminals at Wilmington. e & The water terminals owned by the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad have a total frontage of approximately 2,000 feet, with warehouses having a combined floor space of approximately 90,000. These wharves have modern appliances for discharging cargoes and are equipped with distributing tracks for transferring cargoes to ware- houses. In addition to the above this company owns approximately 2,100 feet of water front on the west side of the river. This frontage is undeveloped. ſº tº & The use of the railroad terminals by water carriers is limited by the following rules, which were approved by the Interstate Commerce Commission: General restrictions and limitations.—This company does not, under this traffic, obli- gate itself to provide wharfage, storage, or handling for property which has not been transported or is not intended to be transported over its lines and as to the property which has been transported or is intended to be transported over its lines, this com- pany does not obligate itself to provide wharfage, storage, or handling beyond the reasonable &apacity of its property and facilities. All services undertaken to be per- formed by this company, under this tariff, is further subject to Federal, State, and municipal laws and regulations. Articles of highly inflammable or explosive nature or articles of uncertain value will not, under this tariff, be provided with wharfage, storage, or handling, unless under special agreement. This company does not, under this tariff, hold itself out to be a public wharfinger, nor does it guarantee berths to vessels, and vessels reporting for loading or discharge (when berthed) will be berthed at proper piers in the order of priority. This company assumes no liability for de- murrage to vessels and all stevedoring (loading or discharge) will be subject to the rules and customs of the port at which such stevedoring is done. Charges for dockage of vessels are in addition to the charges provided for in this tariff, and dockage charges will be assessed and collected by this company in accord- ance with its local rules. Below Wilmington there are only seven wharves of any importance, three about 14 miles below, used in connection with the manufacture of fertilizer, fish oil, etc., three at Southport, and one at Fort Caswell, at the mouth of the river. Of the three at Southport two are used only as steamboat landings, and the third, owned by the Wilmington, Brunswick & Southern Railroad, is used for unloading and coaling vessels. It is not equipped with machinery. All are in good condi- tion and are open to carriers free of charge when not in use by the owners. The wharf at Fort Caswell, of timber and pile construction, belongs to the Quartermaster Department and is used principally by the Government vessels. Until recently there was little general interest in the development of the terminal facilities of the Cape Fear River and Wilmington Harbor, whatever interest existed being confined almost exclusively to the parties owning the terminals in question and to the vessels using same. Recently, however, following the organization of the South Atlantic Maritime Association, of which Wilmington is a mem- 814 waTER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. ber, and the allocation by the United States Shipping Board of sev- eral ships to southern ports, the public generally has become inter- ested in the development of the port and the improvement of the terminal facilities. . A large coaling station at Southport, 3 miles above the mouth of the river, is one of the developments under con- sideration. . Moreover, the presence on the river, just below Wil- mington, of two large shipyards, one for the construction of steel ships and the other for concrete ships has assisted in arousing interest in the development of the port. CAPE FEAR RIVER ABOVE WILMINGTON, N. C. Cape Fear River has a length of about 400 miles and empties into the Atlantic Ocean at Cape Fear. The stream is tidal for about 39 miles. The existing project provides for a navigable depth of 8 feet at low water from Wilmington to the head of navigation at Fayette- ville 115 miles, by the construction of two locks and dams, and by dredging of river shoals between Wilmington and Fayetteville. The two locks and dams, one at Kings Bluff, 39 miles above Wilmington, and one at Browns Landing, 71 miles above Wilmington, have been completed. The principal items of commerce on this stream are cotton, cotton see "...,' fertilizer material, general merchandise, lumber, and timber. The fertilizer materials are carried in large ocean-going steamships which can navigate the lower 4 miles of the improvement. These steamers are about 400 feet in length and have a loaded draft of about 22 feet. The balance of the commerce is carried on a small up-river steamer drawing from 3 to 5 feet of water, gºighter towed by gas boats, excepting timber, which is usually rafted. - There is but one wharf of any importance on this stream. This is the wharf at the plant of the Navassa Guano Co., located on the west side of the river just above Navassa Bridge and about 4 miles from Wilmington, N. C. There are other wharves located on this stream but they are small and unimportant, the majority of them being of very temporary nature. General merchandise, fertilizer, etc., for customers of the One steamboat are generally received on the river banks where deep water makes close to shore or where jutting banks make natural landings. The privately owned wharf at the plant of the Navassa Guano Co., just above Navassa Bridge, is in fair condition and is equipped with two Hunt elevators of 350 tons capacity and narrow gage tracks connecting with warehouses. The wharf, unloading facilities, etc., are adequate for the compara- tively small amount of fertilizer and fertilizer materials handled. The small wharves and natural landings on the stream seem to meet all commercial requirements, but there is need of a publicly owned terminal at Fayetteville, N. C., the present wharves being mere makeshifts unfit for loading or unloading cargoes. A recent act of the North Carolina Legislature authorized a bond issue by the board of aldermen of Fayetteville for the purpose of construct- ing such a terminal. A dock committee was appointed to investi- gate and make report upon the type and cost of a wharf which would be suitable for the commercial needs of the stream and which would be usable at all stages of water, at times reaching an elevation of approximately 70 feet above normal. Specialists on dock con- struction were retained in the matter and plans prepared and sub- WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 815 mitted to the aforementioned dock board. The proposed plan is for a pile supported trestle extending from a point near the crest of the river bank outward to a point directly above the low-water mark. The plan of the wharf is T-shaped, carrying two standard tracks, and on the outer end a raised platform onto which freight is to be unloaded from cars and then transferred to boat by a loco- motive crane operating from track on opposite side of the wharf. The terminal will have direct connection with railroads. The extreme and very sudden variations in the river stage at this point makes the selection of a suitable type of terminal a very difficult one. While it is believed that the plans adopted by the dock committee of Fayetteville will meet all requirements, yet it is believed that commerce on the stream does not warrant the expenditure of a large amount of money for a public wharf. It is thought that an arrangement similar to that employed on the Ohio River, where wharf boats are used, would be more practical than the type proposed. At Browns Landing, N. C., near the site of Lock and Dam No. 2, is a wharf which was used for unloading construction materials. This type of wharf is very suitable for streams of this nature, as it has three landing platforms. NORTHEAST (CAPE FEAR) RIVER, N. C. Northeast River flows 130 miles in a general southerly direction and empties into the Cape Fear River at Wilmington, 30 miles above i. mouth of the latter. It is partly tidal. The length of the tidal reach extends from the mouth to a short distance above Bannermans Bridge, a distance of about 50 miles. A draft of 6 feet can be carried to Bannermans Bridge, 48 miles, and 3 feet up to Crooms Bridge during all stages. Above Crooms Bridge the river is navigable only when the water is up. The existin project provides for a channel 22 feet deep at mean low water, . 150 feet wide from Hilton Bridge to a point 2% miles above; local interests to contribute one-half the cost of the improvement, and for clearing the natural channel for small steamers thence to Hallsville and for pole boats to Kornegays Bridge. The upper portion of the stream is served by a small stern-wheel boat and by lighters towed by gasoline boats. Commerce consists - principally of cotton, cotton seed, fertilizer, gº merchandise, peanuts, lumber, shingles and timber, the bulk of the latter being carried on lighters. There are no wharves of any commercial importance on the upper portion of the stream. Cotton, general merchandise, fertilizer, etc., are loaded and unloaded on small improvised landings or on the river banks. There are but five wharves on that portion of the stream coming within the limits contemplated by the project. Three of these are situated on the western bank of the river above Hilton Bridge, located about as follows: About 3,000 feet above the bridge, American Agricultural & Chemical Co.'s plant; 4,000 feet above, Virginia-Carolina Chemical Co.'s plant; about 5,000 feet above, Swift Fertilizer Works. On the eastern bank, about 500 feet above the bridge, is located the plant of N. B. Josey Guano Co., and just above this plant and adjacent thereto is the Warcrete Co.'s Shipbuilding plant. These wharves are all of timber construction and are in fair condition 816 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The wharves on the western bank, used in connection with the fertilizer works, have a combined frontage of 465 feet and are each equipped with a 400-ton capacity Hunt elevator and distributing tracks to various storehouses. The two wharves located on the eastern bank have no mechanical devices for unloading, the fer- tilizer works receiving the majority of its raw material by rail. The three first mentioned fertilizer works on the west side of the river are connected by spur tracks with the Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line Railway leading to Wilmington, N. C., and surrounding territory. The wharves on the eastern bank have a total frontage of approximately 210 feet and are connected by spur tracks to warehouses and to the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad. All wharves are open to water carriers free of charge when not in use by the owners. Most of the fertilizer materials are shipped in by tramp steamers from South American ports. Owing to the limited water depth in the portion of the stream just above Hilton Bridge where the depth is sº. as 13 feet these ships are compelled to lighter. The present project, as stated before, provides for a channel 150 feet wide and 22. feet deep at mean low water, contingent upon local interests paying 50 per cent of the cost of the work. Up to this time the fertilizer plants here failed to appropriate the money for the work and the channel remains unimproved. It is believed that the present wharves are suitable and adequate for the commerce on the stream. At Wilmington, N. C., there are two machine shops capable of making unlimited repairs to steam- ships. There is a marine railway of approximately 1,500 tons capacity. - Port charges which consist of harbor masters' fees are the same as for the harbor at Wilmington, N. C., this portion of the Northeast River being an extension of the harbor. - Steamers, 100 tons and under 500 tons net register. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $3 Steamers, 500 tons and under 1,000 tons net register . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 Steamers, 1,000 tons and under 1,500 tons net register. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 Steamers, 1,500 tons and under 2,000 tons net register. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .e - - - 15 Steamers, 2,500 tons and under 3,000 tons net register. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 Sailing vessels under 500 tons net register. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Sailing vessels 500 tons and under 1,000 tons net register. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 - Sailing vessels 1,000 tons and over. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 BLACK RIVER, N. C. This river flows about 74 miles in a general southeasterly direction to its junction with the Cape Fear River, 14 miles above Wilmington, N. C. The stream is tidal, the effect of the tide being felt 30 miles º its mouth. The tidal range at the mouth of the river is about 1% feet. The existing project provides for clearing the natural channel and banks to Clear Run, 66 miles above, and cutting off sharp bends. The river is in fair condition, governing low-water depths being 5 feet to Point Caswell, 24 miles; 2% feet to Hawes Narrows, 32 miles; and 1% feet to Clear Run, the head of navigation. There are no cities or towns of importance on the stream. Commerce consists principally of general merchandise, basket bottoms, cotton, live stock, fertilizers, lumber, and timber, and is carried by small upriver steamers or on lighters towed by small gasoline boats. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 817 There are no wharves on this stream other than small improvised affairs that are made solely to answer for the purpose of loading a few lighter loads of basket bottoms or lumber. ºf. of general merchandise, fertilizers, brick, cement, etc., are made on the river banks at natural landings, cotton, live stock, etc., also being loaded at these points. The few small temporary wharves existing on this stream seem adequate for the small amount of commerce handled. SHALLOTTE RIVER, N. C. Shallotte. River is a small stream in Brunswick County, N. C. about 30 miles in length and flows in a general southeasterly direction into the Atlantic Ocean, about 20 miles west of Cape Fear River entrance. The stream is navigable to the town of Shallotte, 9 miles above the mouth. The lower 4 miles of the stream is spread out Over oyster rocks and mud flats; the upper portion follows a tortuous course through marine marshes. The stream is tidal, the rise being ºppºly 5 feet at the mouth of the river and 3 feet at the town of Shallotte. The existing project, which was completed in June, 1914, calls for a channel 4 feet deep at mean low water, with a bottom width of 36 feet from the mouth to Whites Landing, 8 miles above. There has been some shoaling of the channel, the present controlling depth being 3 feet at mean low water. Most of the staple supplies and gasoline, cement, coal, fertilizer, etc., used by the inhabitants of Shallotte and the surrounding country are carried from Wilmington, N. C., by small sharpies. These boats have a draft of from 2% to 3 feet, and are from 40 to 50 feet in length and are usually equipped with a small gasoline motor. Whites Landing, 8 miles above the mouth, was decided upon by the engineers as the logical head of navigation and consequent terminus of the improvement. There are no terminal facilities at Whites Landing, it being merely a natural landing formed by the river bank. The four wharves near the head of navigation are at Shallotte, N. C., distant about 500 yards in a westerly direction from Whites Landing. They are small and unimportant, being formed by bulkheads and decking. They are in fair condition. There are two warehouses in poor condition. There are no mechanical unloading or loading devices, none being necessary. Wharves are owned by private parties but are open to carriers on equal terms. Terminal facilities are considered adequate for present and prospective commerce. There are no railroads in this vicinity. 164681—H. DOC. 652. 66–2——52 : | WATER, TERMINAL AND THANSFER, FACILITIES.

C., DISTRICT. COL. G. R. LUKESH, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. WINYAH BAY, S. C. Location and description.—Winyah Bay lies on the coast of South Carolina, 50 miles northeast of Charleston Harbor and 90 miles south- west of the entrance to Cape Fear River, N. C. The city of George- town, the only port on Winyah Bay, is located on the Sampit River, near the head of the bay, 15 miles in a northerly direction from the entrance bar. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 400 feet wide and 18 feet deep at mean low water from the entrance of Winyah Bay, following the western shore as far as may be necessary, to a point on the Sampit River 1 mile above the limits of the city of Georgetown, to be secured and maintained by means of jetties, dikes, and dredging. At the end of the fiscal year 1918 there was available in the Western Channel a depth of 17 feet, approximately 125 feet wide throughout. In the Sampit River there was available a channel 16.4 feet deep and 400 feet wide. Commerce.—The commerce of Winyah Bay consists of the move- ment of freight between Ceorgetown and coastwise points (in a very few cases foreign ports), which traverses the bay from its entrance at the jetties to the mouth of Sampit River, near the head of the bay; and of river freight between Ceorgetown (Sampit River) and the inland waterways tributary to the bay (Waccamaw and Creat Peedee Rivers and Estherville-Minim Creek Canal). The ocean traffic in 1918 amounted to 82,397 short tons, valued at $2,479,425; the river traffic amounted to 122,673 short tons, valued at $5,333,803. The principal items of freight traffic are lumber, timber products, cotton, grain, provisions, and general merchandise. The maximum ocean com- merce (almost entirely coastwise) ever reported for Creorgetown was that for 1905, when its value reached a total of $10,401,879. At that time the project depth was 15 feet. In 1910 the figures were $5,127,260, or slightly less than 50 per cent of the commerce for 1905, while in 1913 (the year preceding the war) the figures were $4,849,083. The commerce on the rivers tributary to Winyah Bay has also been steadily decreasing in amount, and in some cases has disappeared. Size and type of vessels used.—The usual limits of draft for loaded coastwise boats are 14% to 17 feet. The vessels are almost all steam propelled. The deepest draft river boat in use draws 7.8 feet and is used on the Waccamaw River. - Port of Georgetown, S. C.—The terminals at Ceorgetown are located on the left bank of the Sampit River, along the water front of the city, and about 1 mile from Winyah Bay. They occupy about 6,500 feet of river front. The water terminals are chiefly timber bulkheads, in general without slips. Where slips exist they are small. At the end of each street running to the water front the city maintains a 831 832 WATER TERMINAL AND THRANSFER FACILITIES. landing place 60 feet wide, free to all. There are eight of these streets, six landings serviceable for small boats, one landing place unim- proved, and one with landing in fair condition, but with the approaches too steep for vehicles. The other wharves are private. Five are used by general transportation lines: The Clyde Steamship Co., run- ning to New York; the Baltimore & Carolina Steamship Co., running to Baltimore and Charleston (reported to have been recently discon- tinued); and three river lines, two running on Waccamaw River and one on Black River and Mingo Creek. The Atlantic Coast Lumber Corporation operates from its own wharf two steamers between Georgetown and northern markets, exclusively for handling its own products. They also furnish occasional cargoes for schooners. Sta- tistics for 1918 show that two-thirds of the ocean tonnage of this port was handled over the wharf of this company. There are at this time no modern terminal facilities or freight handling devices in the city. The vessels are moored alongside wooden pile wharves, and all loading and unloading is done by hand labor, facilitated to some degree by the cargo booms aboard the ves- sels. Except in a very elementary sense, there is no combined railroad and steamship terminal, though if and when required such a terminal can be developed on water front now owned by the Seaboard Air Line Railway Co. Its railway tracks now extend to the water front, theoretically enabling it to transfer freight to and from steamers, sailing vessels, barges, and other water craft, and the railroad makes no charge for wharfage. Practically there is no occasion for such transfer of freight, and it can only be accomplished at the present time by dint of much hand labor. Lighters are generally used for conveying to the ships in port and to the railway wharf for reship- ment the lumber produced at places in Georgetown and on the rivers communicating with Winyah Bay. These lighters are necessarily towed by tugboats and almost without exception belong to the lum- ber manufacturers and shippers. There are no public terminals ex- cept the ends of the city streets above mentioned. The Seaboard Air Line Railway operates the only railway now entering Georgetown, which is the terminus of a branch connecting with the Atlantic Coast Line system at Lanes, S. C., 36 miles distant, and crossing the Hamlet-Charleston division of the Seaboard Air Line at Andrews, about 17 miles from Georgetown. The last-named division is intended to become the main line of the Seaboard Air Line for its New York-Florida service. The railroad reaches the water front in the suburbs of Georgetown. There is no belt line railroad connecting the terminals of the city. There is no regular organized body that deals with wharfage and berth charges in Georgetown Harbor. Vessels applying for wharfage do so when their business dictates, and no charges are made by the Owners of the wharves. - The municipality of Georgetown is bonded approximately to its legal limit for the construction of public utilities, and until the city has greatly increased in population and taxable values it will not be in a position to undertake the construction of public terminals. It is believed, however, that the present terminal and transfer facilities, while elementary, are adequate for the present and reasonably pros- pective needs of the harbor. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 83.3 WACCAMAW RIVER, N. C. AND S. C. Location and description.—This river rises in Lake Waccamaw, Columbus County, N.C., and flows into Winyah Bay, its mouth being about 2% miles from Georgetown. }* Eristing project.—This provides for a channel 12 feet deep at all stages of water, with 80 feet bottom width, from the mouth of the river to Conway, nearly 44 miles, and thence a cleared channel to Lake Waccamaw. The project has been completed with the excep- tion of a rock shoal encountered about 3,000 feet below the Atlantic Coast Line Railway bridge at Conway, where for a distance of 350 feet the depth is 9 feet at low-water stages. Commerce.—There is more commerce on this river than on any other entering Winyah Bay. The rail connection between Conway and Georgetown is circuitous, but connection by the river is direct. There are two steamboat lines plying the river—the Waccamaw Steamboat Co., running to Conway, 44 miles above the mouth, and the Waccamaw Transportation Co., running between Georgetown and Toddville, 38 miles above the mouth of the river. Above Con- way smaller boats run to Red Bluff, 69 miles above the mouth, and occasionally to Pireway, 34 miles farther. The commerce for 1918 below Conway amounted to 62,349 short tons, valued at $3,659,439; that above Conway amounted to 14,621 short tons, valued at $365,956. The vessels operating below Conway are steamers and tugs, with drafts varying from 4 to 7 feet. The commerce above Conway con- sists principally of the movement downstream of logs, handled in rafts, towed by a small tug drawing 3.8 feet. Terminal facilitics.=At Toddville and Conway agents of the lines provide wharves and warehouses, and these are free and open to all carriers. At intermediate landings there are free wharves and usually free warehouses, though in a few cases storage is charged for freight left in the warehouses. The banks are low and range of river stage small, consequently freight is handled by hand without difficulty. The terminals are adequate for the business. At Conway they are reached by the railroad and by highways in fair condition. The intermediate landings are reached by country roads, usually in poor condition. - GREAT PEEDEE, SANTEE, AND CONGAREE RIVERS, S. C. These rivers have practically no terminal facilities. There is very little business done on them at present. The problem of terminals and landings is substantially the same for all. Until the commerce greatly increases terminals for loading and unloading merchandise would be impracticable. They could not be financed for the reason that they would not be profitable. As a matter of fact, there is no systematic commerce at present. An old boat, frequently an unsuit- able one, is purchased by an individual or corporation, and run, sometimes profitably, but generally at a loss, until the project is finally abandoned for that reason. Terminals depending upon ver- tical pile wharves are not suitable, on account of the great variation between low and high water on all of these rivers. The lack of a suitable warehouse at the landings is one of the chief obstacles to the use of water transportation. The planter or merchant prefers the railroad, where the safety of his freight is assured. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—53 834 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. GREAT PEEDEE RIVER, S. C. Location and description.—This river is a continuation of the stream called the Yadkin River, which rises in the mountains in the north- western part of North Carolina, and flows in a general southeasterly direction into Winyah Bay. From Thoroughfare to Smiths Mills, 52 miles above the mouth, there is a channel 9 feet deep, and from Smiths Mills to Caines Landing, the commercial head of navigation, 86 miles above the mouth, a channel with a controlling depth of 3 feet at mean low water. At low-water stages there is a tidal variation of 3% feet at the mouth of the river, and 3 inches 34 miles above. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a thoroughly cleared 9-foot navigation up to Smiths Mills (via Waccamaw River and Bull Creek), and thence a 33-foot navigation to Cheraw, 164 miles above the mouth, at all stages of water. Commerce and terminals.--Navigation on this river is irregular. The two boat lines formerly running to Allisons, about 65 miles above the mouth, have discontinued their boats. The commerce is carried by gasoline boats and by occasional trips of larger vessels. The com- merce in 1918 amounted to 36,337 short tons, valued at $339,543. On the river there are no wharves and freight is placed on the bank at landings free and open to all carriers. The freight is handled by hand. Highways to the landings are poor. SANTEE RIVER AND ESTHERVILLE-MINIM CREEK CANAL, S. C. Location and description.—This river is formed by the confluence of Congaree and Wateree Rivers at a point 30 miles southeast of Columbia, S. C. It flows in a southeasterly direction for a distance of 143 miles, and enters the Atlantic Ocean through two branches, 5 and 8 miles south of Winyah Bay. The north branch is connected with Winyah Bay through the Estherville-Minim Creek Canal. Tidal influence is felt up to Lenuds Ferry, 38 miles above the mouth. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a route for river steamers from Santee River to Winyah Bay, by a canal between Estherville and Minim Creek, S. C., 6 feet deep and 70 feet wide; and for Snagging the river proper. The canal now has a controlling depth of 6 feet, with widths varying from 20 to 60 feet. The least available depth is 3 feet at low water. . Commerce and terminals.-There is at present no commerce on the river except the movement of logs downstream. There are no usable wharves or warehouses along the river. There are a number of land- ings where freight has been landed in the past direct from the boat to the shore, but there are no transfer connections between the river and the railroads, and the highways, except in a few cases, are in bad con- dition. The commerce in 1918 amounted to 18,274 short tons, valued at $179,051. - CONG AREE RIVER, S. C. Location and description.—This river is formed by the confluence of the Broad and Saluda Rivers, 1 mile above Columbia, S. C. It unites with the Wateree River to form the Santee River. Existing project.—This provides for a 4-foot navigable channel over the lower 49 miles of the river, to be secured and maintained by dredg- WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 835 ing and bank protection, and for the construction of a lock and dam to extend deep water to Gervais Street Bridge, Columbia, S. C. A 4-foot channel now exists in this river at all except very low stages. Commerce and terminals.-The navigation on this river is from Columbia to Georgetown, via the Congaree and Santee Rivers, the Estherville-Minim Creek Canal, and Winyah Bay. A line of river steamers has been making the run between Columbia and George- town for some years, but at present is not in operation. The com— merce for 1918 amounted to 2,308 short tons, valued at $133,284. At Columbia there are no terminal facilities except a landing place which has neither wharf, warehouse, nor handling facilities. At Granby Landing, 2 miles below the city, and just below the Govern- ment lock and dam, there is a temporary terminal, consisting of a narrow-gage track laid on the incline of the bank, allowing a car to run down to the deck of the boat, from which it is hauled back by a team of horses to a small warehouse on the bank above the usual freshet level. A much larger warehouse is located farther back on the line of a railroad spur. This warehouse has never been used. The railroad spur referred to connects Granby, through the Seaboard Air Line tracks, with all railroads entering the city of Columbia, but is not used, having been cut at one of the railroad crossings. The terminal belongs to the river line, and is not open to the use of other vessels. Along the river there are a few private landings where freight is handled for the vicinity. The freight is handled by hand, being taken up the gangplank and placed on top of the bank. In Some instances there is a small shed for the freight. A highway, in fair condition, connects Columbia with the terminal at Granby. Other landings lie on the river bank, and the roads, with a few excep- tions, pass through bottom lands subject to overflow. It is essential to a proper use of Congaree River that a publicly owned terminal be established at or near Granby Landing, or later, when the Columbia Canal may be in operation, at the city front of Columbia. If established at Granby Landing, such terminal should consist of a wharf with a suitable device for raising and lowering freight between the vessels and the deck of the wharf, to provide for the variation (20 feet at the extreme) which exists during the navigable stages in the elevation of the water surface at that point, and there should be provided at Granby Landing a warehouse with floor space not less than 50 by 200 feet. This warehouse should be º conveniently to the wharf, and to the spur railroad mentioned a, O OV6. In lieu of this terminal, or in addition to it, it is desirable that a terminal be established in the city of Columbia, fronting on the Columbia Canal, as soon as that canal may be completed and put in commission. This canal is now the subject of litigation, and its future is problematical. It will be necessary to provide a suitable wharf, or wharves, and warehouses. One warehouse, with a floor space of not less than 50 by 100 feet should be provided for as soon as the canal comes into commission. Additional warehouses should be provided as the need therefor becomes evident. A terminal at or near Columbia, S. C., is desirable in order that water transportation by way of Congaree and Santee Rivers and the Estherville-Minim Creek Canal and Winyah Bay to Georgetown, 836 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. S. C., and when the route becomes feasible, by way of Congaree and Santee Rivers and inland waterway to Charleston, S. C., may be carried on with profit both to the prospective shippers and the boat interests. There is at the present time considerable commerce which would naturally move by river between Columbia and the coast, which is now prevented from using the river by the unreliability of existing terminal facilities at and near Columbia, although shoal water in the Congaree and Santee Rivers, and the artificial varia- tions in the stage caused by hydroelectric operations above Columbia are also hindrances to water commerce. WATERWAY BETWEEN CHARLESTON AND WINYAH BAY, S. C. Location and description.—This waterway consists of a series of creeks, sounds, rivers and bays, which afford a route sheltered for the most part from the sea by numerous islands which form the outer coast line. The total distance from Charleston to Winyah Bay is 90 miles, all of which is embraced in the project. The route is tidal throughout, with a variation ranging from 3.5 to 5.1 feet, according to locality, and is further affected by winds or storms, which cause extreme high tides of 7 to 8 feet or more. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 4 feet deep at mean low water and 60 feet wide at bottom between Charleston Harbor and Winyah Bay, with a branch channel of the same dimensions to Morrisons Landing in McClellanville. These dimensions have been obtained over the stretch between Charleston and McClellanville (47% miles), but, due to deterioration, the controlling depth is now about 3 feet at mean low water. Commerce.—The commerce over this waterway consists of cotton, farm products and supplies, Oysters and miscellaneous merchandise. The coastal islands are dependent upon the waterway for the trans- portation of supplies and plantation products. The commerce is conducted by private individuals operating small boats of various types drawing from 3 to 7 feet loaded. The larger ones are obliged to “work the tides.” In 1918 the commerce between Charleston and McClellanville consisted of 150 passengers, and 17,419 short tons of freight, valued at $633,035. Terminal facilities.—There are practically no terminal facilities at McClellanville, nor at any point on the route between McClellanville and Charleston. In fact, but little landing is done. The route is through the marsh and does not reach the mainland at many points. There is a wharf owned by an Oyster canning factory and used in connection with their work on the north bank of Owendaw Creek. There was formerly a wharf at McClellanville which supplied a very conspicuous need. McClellanville suffered severely during the hurri- cane of July, 1916, and this wharf was floated off. At the date of the last examination it had not been rebuilt. & HARBOR AT CHARLESTON (INCLUDING ASHLEY RIVER), S. C. Location and description.—Charleston Harbor is on the coast of South Carolina, about 50 miles southwest of Winyah Bay, S.C., and 80 miles northeast of the mouth of Savannah River. It is formed by - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 837 a bay at the mouths of the Cooper and Ashley Rivers, and is practi- cally landlocked by outlying seacoast islands and portions of the mainland. The city of Charleston lies at the end of the peninsula between the two rivers, about 7% miles from the ocean bar, and the United States Navy Yard is located on Cooper River, 8 miles above its confluence with Ashley River. The entrance channel of the harbor has a depth of at least 30 feet at mean low water over a width of at least 700 feet to the jetty ends, and 500 feet to the wharves of Charleston on the Cooper River front. Thence a channel of like depth and 600 to 1,000 feet wide is being dredged by the Navy Depart- ment up the Cooper River to the navy yard. The project depth has been obtained throughout almost the entire extent of this reach, and it is expected will shortly exist through the entire distance. From the navy yard to the United States port terminals, about 2 miles above the navy yard, a channel 400 to 800 feet wide and 30 feet deep has been dredged in connection with the construction of the port terminals. In the case of the Ashley River, there is a channel with a minimum depth of 20 feet, and a minimum width of 240 feet, up to the Standard Wharf, 7} miles above the confluence of the Ashley and Cooper Rivers. The Cooper River, or eastern, water front is the principal water front of the city, as regards depth of water and number and importance of terminals. Existing project.—This provides for securing and maintaining by the construction of jetties and auxiliary dredging, a channel 40 feet deep at mean low water, and 1,000 feet wide from the sea to the navy yard; and in Ashley River a channel 20 feet deep at mean low water and 240 feet wide up to the Standard Wharf, 74 miles above the confluence of the Ashley and Cooper Rivers. Commerce.—The principal articles of commerce are coal, cotton, cotton goods, fºliº materials, petroleum products, provisions, and miscellaneous general merchandise. The commerce for 1918 was about two-thirds of that for 1917, the decrease, however, being principally in items of low unit value (coal, lumber, etc.). The value of the freight handled was nearly 7 per cent less than in 1917. Prior to the recent war a large quantity of fertilizer materials was imported at Charleston. War conditions have materially reduced the business in this line. In addition to the commerce handled locally, a large number of vessels use the facilities of the harbor as a port of call or for coaling purposes. The cargo carried by them is sometimes greater than that which passes over the wharves of the city. The following table shows the amount and value of the local seagoing commerce for the past five years: Comparative statement. Freight traffic. Passengers Calendar year. carried. Short tons.

General information relative to terminals.-On the Cooper River water front of the city of Charleston there are about 1 mile of piers and about 1 mile of marginal wharves. The water front along the Cooper River between the East Battery, near the junction of the Cooper and Ashley Rivers, and the northern boundary line of the city of Charleston, a total of 14,646 feet, is divided as to ownership as follows: Ownership of water front, Cooper River.

As modern facilities, may be mentioned the Southern Railway coal pier and the Walk & Murdoch ship repair plant. The Clyde Steam- ship Co.'s wharf and the Seaboard Air Line Railway Co.'s wharf have mechanical unloading devices. - As a general statement of fact, there are no public wharves on the Cooper River at Charleston. Some of the wharves belonging to steamboat corporations and private utilities are kept in fairly good condition, and some of these are open to the public upon payment of wharf charges. There is no wharf owned by the city and open to the public use. There are no State or county owned terminals. ... It is very difficult for strange vessels to secure suitable docking facilities. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 839 On the Ashley River water front of the city of Charleston terminal facilities are located along a stretch from the foot of Tradd Street to the Standard Wharf, just below East Marsh Island, a distance of 5% miles, but of the existing wharves only six are in usable condition, as follows: A small municipal wharf at the foot of Tradd Street, suitable for small vessels; the United States Lighthouse Wharf; Ashepoo Fertilizer Wharf; Planters Fertilizer Wharf; and the Chicora and Standard Wharves of the Virginia–Carolina Chemical Co. The railroads of Charleston have for years controlled a very large part of the eastern water front of the city. About 29 years ago the East Shore Terminal Co. secured a franchise to run tracks down this water front, and they took over a good deal of the water front- property at the same time. Owing to financial difficulties that com- pany sold out its property, and all of its rights were transferred to the Charleston Terminal Co. The franchise, having been given for 30 years, is expected to expire in about one year's time. The terminal company has maintained extensive wharves and warehouses at the foot of Columbus Street, which are in fair condition, but are not modern. The company transferred, several years ago, a considerable amount of its holdings to the Clyde Steamship Co., which has erected modern terminals, warehouses, and offices. However, the terminal company retained about 700 feet of water front below the Clyde property, and this has entirely gone to pieces. The wharves have all rotted, and the warehouses have become dilapidated or have burned. Altogether, the property held by this company is not in a satisfactory condition. Very little of it can be used for terminal and shipping purposes. . The general subject of terminals at Charleston under present cir- cumstances must include the United States port terminals con- structed on the Cooper River at North Charleston in connection with the embarkation of troops, animals, equipment, and supplies for the overseas forces. Mention should also be made of the United States navy yard on the Cooper River at North Charleston. While not equipped with terminal facilities of a general character, it has, how- ever, facilities for repairs to vessels which must be included among those available to the port of Charleston, although intended to meet the needs of the Navy º Port administration, port charges, public ownership of terminals.- The administration of the port of Charleston is vested in two bodies— a board of harbor commissioners, and a dock and warehouse com- mission. The board of harbor commissioners consists of 13 members: The mayor; the presidents of the chamber of commerce, the mer- chants’ exchange and the cotton exchange; a member of the executive committee of the State board of health; and eight other residents of the city of Charleston appointed by the governor of the State. The board, under the law, has authority to make rules and regula- tions for the government of vessels at the port, and to fix the lines for the bay and harbor and rivers and creeks within which riparian owners may erect wharves, docks and other proper erections and fixtures for commercial manufacture, and other purposes, and the board, or a majority of it, has the authority to cause the removal of any wharf, dock, or other obstruction to navigation that may, in their opinion, be injurious to such bay, harbor, rivers or creeks, and is charged with the duty of examining all public and private docks, and when such docks are not in proper condition for the purposes 840 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. for which they are designed, the board may require the owner or occupant to put them in condition by deepening them. - The members of the board of harbor commissioners are also com- missioners of pilotage for the port of Charleston. Apparently the principal work done by the board is in examining and licensing pilots. Although the board of harbor commissioners, as commissioners of pilot- age, examine, license, and regulate pilots, they have no control over the rates of pilotage, those rates being fixed by State law. The follow- ing table gives the rates of pilotage for certain drafts for Charleston S. C., for commercial and bunker coal visits: Table of pilotage rates. ; * & For commercial visits.

The dock and warehouse commission consists of 11 men, including the mayor; 5 aldermen; 2 citizens of Charleston; and the presidents of the chamber of commerce, the cotton exchange, and the merchants’ exchange. It has general supervision of all wharves, warehouses, and terminal facilities, of all transmitting and transporting corpora- tions, firms, etc., and is charged with examining into the condition of such facilities with regard to the public accommodation and com- pliance with law. The commission may call upon owners of ter— minal facilities to make repairs, enlargements, and improvements to such facilities, and changes in operation to promote public security, convenience, and accommodation, or to provide facilities required by business needs. - The act of the State legislature establishing the dock and ware- house commission was originally passed in 1912, but was defective in describing a membership of the commission of 11, but enumer- ating only 6. This defect was not corrected until the passage of an amendatory act by the State legislature in 1916. Owing to the recent creation of the board, and to war conditions which have existed, the acts of the board have not been of special importance so far as improvement of general conditions is concerned. However, it is evident that the powers of the board of harbor commissioners and of the dock and warehouse commission are comprehensive and adequate to meet all the needs of port administration.

General remarks.--The port of Charleston occupies, geographically, a favorable position for trade with all parts of the world, and es- pecially so since the completion of the Panama Canal. J t is also in favorable geographical relation to other parts of the United States, with a productive back country and the export resources of the entire country as accessible as they are to other Atlantic and Culf ports and more accessible than to some. The comparative near- ness of the port to the ocean, 7% miles from the junction of the Cooper and Ashley Rivers to the ocean bar, and the natural deep anchorages also give Charleston Harbor an importance that calls for consideration where foreign and coastwise trade is concerned. Passing from the natural features, all of which are favorable, to the artificial features of the harbor, it is not so apparent what posi- tion should be assigned this port in present and prospective rank with other ports of the Atlantic coast. The present system of terminals is for the larger part an aggregation of old type wharves, lacking unloading and transporting devices, needing in many cases considerable repair, in some cases rebuilding complete. A few terminals and facilities, among which may be mentioned the Clyde Line terminal, the Columbus Street Wharf, the Southern Railway coal pier, the Walk & Murdoch ship repair plant with its new floating dry dock with a capacity of 8,000 tons, these, with the lesser usable wharves and facilities meet present-day needs, but will not by them- selves permit unhampered expansion of foreign and coastwise trade to the extent that even the present 30-foot channel could accom- modate. The most obvious need at the present time is one or more public terminals, where vessels would be assured of immediate berth and rapid discharge and receipt of cargo at uniform prices for all. The system of railroad tracks along the Cooper River front would lend itself easily to furnishing the necessary connection between such a terminal and the railroad systems entering Charleston. J t should be stated in this connection that in view of the early expiration of the franchise of the Charleston Terminal Co., referred to above, the city of Charleston is seeking the advice of experts of the country on the subject of port and harbor facilities, in order that a reasonable prop- osition may be prepared to be presented to the Charleston Terminal 842 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Co., upon which the city would have a right to stand before granting a renewal of the franchise. Charleston Harbor possesses, in the Southern Railway coal pier, a modern ship coaling facility, capable of handling about 1,000 tons per hour of cargo coal. The port's facilities for handling bunker coal are not so satisfactory. An export trade in coal appears to be develop- ing after a period of stagnation due to war conditions. Charleston Harbor, viewed as a whole, includes the Cooper River up to the United States port terminals at North Charleston to which a 30-foot channel now exists owing to dredging done above the navy yard in connection with the port terminals, and the facilities of the harbor must include the port terminals. In fact, those terminals, designed for war purpose, may in the future play an important part in the commerce crossing Charleston Bar. They consist of ex- tensive marginal wharves and elaborate buildings designed for the receipt and dispatch of equipment and supplies, quartermaster and ordnance, and of animals, to the American Expeditionary Forces in France. Adapted admirably in design and extent to such purpose they are also well adapted to peace purposes. It has apparently not yet been decided what disposition is to be made of them, beyond their present use as a debarkation point for troops from overseas. If not relegated to dead storage purposes of the Army, or if not taken over by the Navy for supply purposes, it appears that the United States port terminals will be available to meet in part the needs of commerce in the vicinity of Charleston. The port terminals at North Charleston have exceptional facilities for the rapid inter- change of freight between ships and railroads, have spacious build- ings and sheds for storage, sorting and handling of freight, and ample marginal wharf space for berthing of vessels. They are thoroughly modern, and, if given over to commerce, will certainly lessen the need of elaborate new terminals at Charleston proper. § WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. GEORGETOWN, S. C.

GS. * WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES, SAVANNAH, GA., DISTRICT. LIEUT. COL. F. W. ALTSTAETTER, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN ("HARGE. SAVANNAH HARBOR, GA. General description of the port.—Savannah Harbor, Ga., lies at the extreme northern end of the Georgia coast, 112 miles by water south of Charleston, S. C., and 111 miles by water north of Brunswick Harbor, Ga. The harbor includes the improved channel across the bar, which marks its seaward limit, Tybee Roads, Tybee Knoll, and the lower 20 miles of the Savannah River. The existing project of improvement provides for a channel 30 feet deep and 500 feet wide from the sea to Quarantine, a distance of 10% miles, thence 26 feet deep and from 400 to 500 feet wide to the Seaboard Air Line Railway bridge, a distance of 15% miles, and thence 21 feet deep and 300 feet wide to the foot of Kings Island, a distance of $ miles. All depths in this report are referred to mean low water, and the mean tidal range is about 6% feet at the harbor entrance, 6 feet at the upper part of the harbor, and 44 feet at Port Went- worth, which extends to 4 miles above the foot of Kings Island. The city of Savannah had a population of 65,000, according to the census of 1910. The center of the city water front is approxi- mately 24 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. The most important terminal and transfer facilities of the port extend from a point 13, miles above the city to a point 1% miles below, and are all on the same side of the river as the city, with the exception of one com- bined rail and water terminal which belongs to the Seaboard Air Line Railway. The Seaboard Air Line Railway bridge crosses the Savannah River 26 miles from the sea and about 2% miles above the center of the city, and connects the Seaboard Terminal and other terminal property on the left bank of the Savannah River, with the city and terminal property on the right bank. This bridge marks the upper limit of the existing 26-foot project, and will be used throughout this report and the tabulation of terminal facilities as a point of reference for the location of water front improvement. The city of Savannah does not have large and diversified manu- facturing interests, although it has what is said to be the largest cottonseed oil refinery in the United States, has important fertilizer manufactures, a sugar refinery, large cotton compresses, and four shipyards with a total of 22 shipways. Savannah as a port, how- ever, handles a large portion of the water-borne commerce of the Southeastern section of the United States. Because of the fact that Savannah is neither a large consumer of raw materials nor producer of manufactured products, the greater portion of the commerce entering or leaving the port, both export and coastwise, is through commerce originating in the country behind it and destined to foreign countries and the eastern markets and manu- facturing centers of the United States, and vice versa. 860 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 861 General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of the port is diversified, the major portion being carried in steam. vessels, only from 10 to 15 per cent being carried in sailing vessels and barges, which are engaged principally in coastwise lumber and coal traffic. A study of the commerce of the port for the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, shows that 29 per cent of the business of this port is with foreign countries, 22 per cent being outbound and 7 per cent inbound; 62 per cent is coastwise, of which 35 per cent is outbound and 27 per cent inbound, and 9 per cent is carried over the inland and coastal waterways. The principal commodities exported to foreign countries are cotton and cotton products, iron and steel and the manufactures thereof, naval stores, and lumber and lumber products. The principal commodities imported from foreign countries are fertilizer materials. The coastwise traffic is more diversified in character than the foreign traffic, and the prin- cipal commodities shipped and received are lumber and lumber products, cotton and cotton products, iron and steel, naval stores, merchandise and dry goods, coal, groceries, canned goods, and other foodstuffs. The coastwise steamers using this port are from 2,500 to 5,000 tons capacity and the usual limits of draft are from 18 to 22 feet. The foreign steamers using the port range from 4,000 tons upward to 10,000 tons and the usual limits of draft are from 22 to 26 feet, with a maximum of over 29 feet.

From this bridge downstream on the right bank of the river to a point 3.9 miles below there is a continuous developed water front occupied by two trunk-line rail and water terminals belonging to the Ocean Steamship Co. and the Atlantic Coast Line Railway, and numerous private terminals and industrial plants. Opposite the city on the left bank of the river and from 2.3 to 2.6 miles below the bridge lies the rail and water terminal of a third trunk-line railway, the Seaboard Air Line Railroad. This is the only terminal of any impor- tance on the left bank of the river. Between the upper limits of the harbor and Port Wentworth there are important shipbuilding and industrial plants, with developed water front on the right bank of 862 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. the river. These terminal and transfer facilities lie above the upper limit of the existing project for Savannah Harbor, but, as they form an important part of the industrial life of Savannah and are a part of the facilities of the port, it is deemed proper to include them in this report. This 㺠is along the 5-foot channel to Au- usta, but, as the river has a natural controlling depth of about 9 É. from Port Wentworth to the sea and the mean tidal range is about 4% feet, light-draft seagoing vessels navigate the river to this oint. p Over 80 per cent of the total of 6.7 miles of available docking space in the port is owned or controlled by the three trunk-line railroads, which have combined rail and water terminals at Savannah. The Central of Georgia Railway controls, through its subsidiary corpora- tion, the Ocean Steamship Co., 2.2 miles of docking space, the Atlantic Coast Line Railway approximately 1 mile, and the Seaboard Air Line Railway approximately 2.2 miles, and nearly all of the commerce of the port passes through these three terminals. Adequacy of terminals.--Approximately 92 per cent of the total water-borne commerce of Savannah Harbor passes through the three rail and water terminal units serving the port, only 8 per cent being handled at all other terminals. Coastwise and local vessels are prac- tically, the only vessels using privately owned terminals, and only about 5 per cent of the total coastwise traffic and 50 per cent of the total local traffic is served by such, the balance being served by the three railroad terminals. It is very apparent, therefore, that a study : of the terminal and transfer facilities and traffic conditions in Savan- nah Harbor involves principally the consideration of the three com- bined rail and water terminals. The Ocean Steamship Co. terminal is owned by the Ocean Steam- ship Co., a subsidiary torporation of the Central of Georgia Railway. Portions of this terminal unit are operated under lease by the Cen- tral of Georgia Railway and the Merchants & Miners' Transportation Co. and the balance by the Ocean Steamship Co., and this terminal property, while under one ownership and all in one parcel, is generally known as the Central of Georgia Terminal, the Ocean Steamship Co. terminal, and the Merchants & Miners’ Transportation Co. terminal. The property operated by the Central of Georgia Railway has an available docking space of approximately 7,900 fect and serves for- eign commerce almost exclusively. The property operated by the Ocean Steamship Co. has an available docking space of approxi- mately 2,630 feet, the property operated by the Merchants & Miners' Transportation Co. an available docking space of approximately 1,112 feet, and 75 per cent of the total coastwise commerce of the port of Savannah passes through these two terminals. The Atlantic Coast Line Railway terminal is owned and operated by that company, except certain portions leased to private individuals or corporations. This property has an available docking space of approximately 4,975 feet and serves foreign commerce almost exclusively. The Seaboard Air Line Railway terminal is owned and operated by the Seaboard Air Line Railway, except certain portions leased to private individuals and corporations. This terminal has recently been badly damaged by fire, but is to be restored to its original condition, and the data in this report are descriptive of its condition before the fire. This property has an available docking space of approximately 11,941 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 863 feet, and also serves foreign commerce almost exclusively. A suffi- cient depth of water has been maintained at all of these combined rail and water terminals to accommodate vessels using them. There is approximately 6,785 feet of docking space at wharves and piers other than at the railroad terminals, all of which, except 471 feet and six small landings owned by the city, is under private control and very little of which is suitable as berths for Ocean-going vessels loading or discharging cargo. - Table 2, which follows, shows the freight movement over all the terminal property in this harbor classified under the general headings foreign, coastwise, and local, the approximate average tonnage per annum passing through the various terminals, and the amount han- dled per annum per linear foot of docking space. This last factor, namely, the number of tons of freight handled per linear foot of dock- ing space, serves as a basis of comparison for determining the effi- ciency of the different terminal units of this port and possibly as a basis of comparison of the general efficiency of this port and other ports. In the preparation of this table it has been necessary to group the various terminals under the various classes of traffic served, as there are not sufficient data available for a study of individual terminals; but from information at hand logical conclusions can be drawn as to the efficiency of the present terminal facilities and the necessity of additional facilities.

This is not the ease, however. The commodities carried in coast- wise traffic include all the commodities of importance carried in for- eign traffic and are in most cases equal to or greater in volume than the same commodities carried in the foreign trade. Methods of stor– ing, handling, and loading cargo are similar at all terminals and the available storage space about in proportion to the amount of docking space at the various terminals, although practically all the warehouses and sheds at those terminals serving coastwise traffic are on the wharves and piers immediately adjacent to steamers’ berths, and 864 wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. due to their location and the rapid flow of freight through them, serve more nearly as pure transit rather than storage warehouses and sheds, the storage space at the other terminals being used to store certain commodities destined for coastwise shipment and these com— modities brought to shipside by lighters. These factors, which are the most important ones affecting the efficiency of a terminal, will be discussed in more detail in the individual description of the various terminals themselves, found in the latter part of this report. Another factor which has an important bearing on the capacity of a port and its terminals is the seasonal movement of commodities; that is, if certain commodities representing a large percentage of the business of a port move through the port during a few months of the year, the port and port terminals must be of sufficient capacity to handle this peak load or seasonal movement. The cotton movement through the port of Savannah under ordinary conditions takes place almost entirely during a period of six months, but this is the only com- modity moving through the port which has a well-defined seasonal movement and the tonnage of this commodity (12 per cent), as com- pared with the total tonnage passing through the port is not of sufficient magnitude to greatly decrease the capacity of the port, or its terminal facilities, with the exception of storage facilities, which are utilized to practically their full capacity during the height of the COtton movement. Referring to Table 2, and assuming that the Ocean Steamship Co. and the Merchants & Miners Transportation Co. terminals are oper- ated to their maximum capacity and efficiency, and that the other railroad terminals in the harbor could, in their present condition or with slight improvements, be operated with equal efficiency, or, in other words, that all railway terminals could handle 320 tons of freight per linear foot of docking space per annum and that there are suffi- cient storage facilities available for this volume of traffic; the three railway terminals alone, which have an available docking space of about 28,500 feet, could handle a total of over 9,000,000 tons of com- merce annually, or approximately three times as much as has ever passed through the port of Savannah in one year. While the ca- pacity of the present terminals is probably not as great as this, due to the difference in the character of the vessels engaged in coastwise and foreign trade and to different conditions under which cargo must be stored, assembled, and loaded in these two classes of trade, it is thought that, in so far as docking space and storage facilities are con- cerned, the present terminal facilities of Savannah Harbor are capa- ble of handling at least twice the volume of business that is at present passing through them. - It is very apparent, therefore, that by far the larger portion of the docking and storage space of Savannah Harbor is not being utilized to its full capacity, and that not only, no further terminal develop- ment as regards increase of these facilities is necessary for the present demands of commerce, but that the present facilities of the harbor can accommodate a greatly increased volume of business. Port administration and port charges.—The port of Savannah is controlled by the municipality, and pilotage rates, harbor dues or harbor master's fees, and port warden's fees are subject to approval of the mayor and alderman of the city of Savannah. Towage rates, loading and discharging, lighterage rates, and drayage are not regu- wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 865 lated, and as there is only one towing and lighterage company in the harbor, this company has almost a monopoly in this class of business. Wharfage, switching charges, storage charges, and demurrage on cars under load are subject to the approval of the Interstate Commerce Commission. No dockage charge is made against vessels for the use of berthing space when loading or discharging at railway terminals. The harbor regulations of the port of Savannah are published in amphlet form and copies may be obtained on application to the i. master. Because of their length and because they contain no unusual features, they are not quoted herein. A schedule of port charges as of November, 1918, is given in Appendix A of this report. - Ownership and control of water front.—There is approximately 6.7 miles of available docking space at the wharves ..". within the limits of the terminal development of Savannah Harbor. About 5.4 miles of this is owned or controlled by the three railroad companies having combined rail and water terminals. About 0.2 mile is owned by the city of Savannah and about 1.1 miles is privately owned or controlled. The only improved public terminals of any importance are those owned by the city of Savannah, which maintains six free public landings and two municipal wharves. The public landings are suitable for rowboats and small launches only and the municipal wharves, which have a total available docking space of only 471 linear feet, are little used except as berths for publicly owned vessels and vessels not loading or discharging cargo. g The city owns about one-half mile of undeveloped water front (in addition to its developed water front property) on the left bank of the river which is suitable for development, and there is a large area of swamp land on both banks of the river below the city and present water front developments, which is suitable for development as ter- minal or industrial property. - Owing to the fact that the three combined rail and water terminals of Savannah are capable of handling a much larger volume of business than has ever passed through the port, and owing to the additional fact that these terminals are operated in such a manner as to allow the free movement of commodities through the port, there has been no real demand for the development of publicly owned terminals. The only demand for privately owned terminals has been that which has required the development of such terminals to serve privately owned industrial plants. Public interest in and utilization of terminal and navigation facilities available.—The city of Savannah has a well-organized board of trade which takes an active interest in the improvement and operation of the terminal facilities of the port and in the efforts made to utilize these facilities and the navigation facilities of the port in general. There is also a permanent organization known as the Savannah Harbor Commission, authorized by the city council and appointed by the mayor. . This body, which is composed of prominent citizens of the city, takes an interest in matters pertaining to the port. Within the past few months an organization known as the South Atlantic Maritime Corporation has been created for the purpose of operating steamers and of stimulating and coordinating the business of the Sotith Atlantic ports of Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah, 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2 55 866 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Brunswick, and Jacksonville. Generally speaking, the residents and business men of Savannah realize the importance of the harbor. A large portion of the water-borne commerce of Savannah is carried in vessels which do not utilize the full available depth of the harbor, but there are a great many vessels entering and leaving this port which are of such size that they require all of the present available facilities, and there is an increasing tendency for larger and deeper draft ves- sels to use this port. - tº Existing rail and water connections.—Savannah is a port terminal for the Atlantic Coast Line Railway, the Seaboard Air Line Railway, the Central of Georgia Railway, the Savannah & Atlanta Railway, the Midland Railway, and the Savannah & Statesboro Railway. The Atlantic Coast Line Railway and the Seaboard Air Line Railway, which have direct lines to the north, south, and west, own and operate extensive combined rail and water terminals. The Central of Georgia Railway, which has direct connections to the west and south- west, owns through its subsidiary, the Ocean Steamship Co., a large combined rail and water terminal and operates a portion of this terminal, the balance being operated by the Ocean Steamship Co. and the Merchants & Miners Transportation Co. for the use of their vessels only. The steamship lines engaged in foreign trade practically all use the terminals controlled and operated by the three railroad companies, these terminals being open to the º lic on equal terms. The business of the Southern Railway, which has direct lines to the north and west, is also handled by the Central of Georgia Railway. The Savannah & Atlanta Railway, the Midland Railway, and the Savannah & Statesboro Railway, none of which have developed water terminals, serve local territory and connect with various trunk lines. Ar The steamship lines using the port regularly are the Ocean Steam- ship Co., operating steamers between Savannah and New York and Savannah and Boston; the Merchants & Miners Transportation Co., operating steamers between Savannah and Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Jacksonville; the Donaldson Line (Strachan Shipping Co., agents), operating British steamers between Savannah and ports in the nited Kingdom; and the Ente Transporte Cotoni (Strachan Ship- ing Co., agents), Operating steamers between Savannah and ports in taly. In addition to these lines there are occasional sailings of steamers between Savannah and various European ports and of sailing vessels coastwise, and between Savannah and the West Indies and Savannah and South American ports. A new line of steamers is soon to be established by the South Atlantic Maritime Corporation with regular sailings to Cuba and South American ports. General efficiency of the port as a whole.--The port of Savannah is peculiarly fortunate in the excellent coordination of the service of its various facilities. The three combined rail and water terminals have from their inception been developed as joint rail and water terminals and as a result are most favorably situated for serving the port. All privately owned terminal and industrial property of the slightest importance has connection with at least one of the railroads entering Savannah through spurs, or marginal tracks parallel to the water front, and there is complete physical interconnection between all railroads entering the city. A carload of freight can enter Savan- nah on any railroad and be placed at not only one of the three com- bined rail and water terminals but at any water front or industrial wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 867 property of any importance. As a result of this complete inter- connection between the various railroads and between rail and water carriers the volume of lighterage or rehandling business in this port is greatly reduced and commodities are usually switched from one terminal to another in cars. The only general exception to this rule is in the case of cotton and naval stores. Cotton tº: OWe].” OIO € railroad and intended for delivery shipside to a vessel loading at another terminal is usually lightered. This is true to a lesser degree of naval stores. A large percentage of the cotton passing through the port is delivered by rail to the various cotton º located at the railroad terminals and other Jº along the water front and after being compressed is lightered to shipside or storehouses at terminals where cargo is assembled for vessels. In the case of naval stores almost all is delivered by rail to storage yards at rail and water terminals, held for the account of the exporter and afterwards assembled at ships' berths for loading. In most cases the commercial procedure involved in the sale of both of these commodities precludes the possibility of handling direct from cars into transit sheds or to shipside, as there is nearly always a change in ownership and a con- siderable period of storage between delivery at port and loading on ship. - %aling facilities.—Savannah is a loading and discharging port and not a port of call, and for this reason bunker coal is nearly always delivered to shipside by lighters and placed in ships’ bunkers by steam derrick lighters, by ships' gear and tackle, or by handcarts through side ports. This permits the coaling of vessels while loading or discharging cargo, and so long as the ship is bunkered before all cargo is loaded or discharged none of the ships' time is lost. There are two privately owned coal companies in Savannah which supply bunker coal. One has a storage capacity on its yard of about 20,000 tons and has under construction a conveyor and traveling gantry crane system for loading coal. This plant when completed will have an estimated capacity of 350 tons per hour. The other company has a yard storage capacity of about 10,000 tons and loads coal on lighters by means of wheel carts and from lighters to ships’ bunkers with derricks. This plant has a capacity of about 40 tons per hour. In many cases the coal company places coal on lighters only and the towing of lighters to ships and bunkering is done by the lighterage company, which owns derrick lighters suitable for this kind of work. While the present facilities for furnishing bunker coal can supply the present demand, it is thought that this service could be improved and the cost of bunkering ships reduced if the coal companies were to acquire coal lighters equipped with modern coal handling and conveying appliances which would reduce the amount of labor and time now necessary to pº coal in ships’ bunkers. There will probably be no necessity or demand for the installation of coal tipples for loading directly from storage to ships as there are other ports near Savannah which are favorably situated with respect to the coal fields of the east that are already equipped to handle this class of business. There are, at the º time, no facilities for furnishing fuel oil to oil-burning vessels, but the Texas Co. is now building a wharf at its º about 4.7 miles below the Seaboard Air Line Railway bridge and on the right bank of the river. It is understood that storage tanks with a capacity of over 2,000,000 gallons will be placed ashore 868 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSIFER FACILITIES. and connected with the wharf by pipe lines and that this company will be in a position to furnish fuel oil in the near future. Repair.—There are three ship repair plants at the port, two of which have marine railways with dimensions of 150 by 36 feet and 196. by 40 feet, respectively. These plants are all equipped to make general repairs to ships' machinery and hulls, although repairs requiring the dry-docking of a ship are only available for small vessels as indicated by the dimensions of the marine railways as given above. There are under construction under Government contract a wooden floating dry dock of approximately 5,000 tons capacity and a marine railway of approximately 2,500 tons capacity. There are also three shipbuilding plants in the harbor which have excellent fitting out wharves equipped with mechanical handling devices which are now used in connection with the construction of new ships but which are well suited for ships’ repairs as well. torage facilities.—The warehouse storage space of the port that is adjacent to both rail and water is concentrated at the three rail and water terminals, about 94 per cent of all such space being so situated, the other 6 per cent being located at private terminals. This is also true of the open shed storage space and open platform or ground space adjacent to both rails and shipping, 80 per cent of the former and practically 100 per cent of the latter being located at the three rail and water terminals. - Approximately 50 per cent of inclosed warehousc space, 100 per cent of open shed space, and 80 per cent of open platform or ground space adjacent to rails only is located at the three rail and water terminals. The approximate amount and classification of storage space which is available for use at the city of Savannah in connec- tion with the terminal facilities is shown in Table No. 3: TABLE 3.-Storage space in square feet at Savannah.

Doc. 652, 66-2, HOOK CHAIN HAUL FOR HAND TRUCKS. 869 WATER TERMINAT, AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 869 Methods of handling cargo and dispatch.--The derrick, crane, and other power-operated equipment for handling cargo at the port of Savannah is very limited in comparison with the tonnage which passes through the port. Special facilities are provided at each of the three railroad terminals and at one private terminal for unloading fertilizer salts, which comprise the bulk of the foreign import tonnage of the port. These facilities are similar at all terminals and consist in general of an overhead platform extending for the length of one or more ships' berths along the face of the wharf and parallel thereto. On these overhead platforms are guyed derricks operated by ships’ winches, which raise the bulk cargo in buckets. These buckets discharge into movable hoppers run on tracks to a point opposite the ship's hatch that is to be unloaded. The material is then dumped from the hoppers into cars, operated by a third-rail system, or hauled by motors, and carried on overhead spur tracks running from the main overhead platform to warehouses or cars at the rear of the wharf, where it is unloaded by gravity. In almost all cases, except in the coastwise steamer trade and in the unloading of fer- tilizer salts, ships' gear and tackle are used for loading and discharg— ing cargo between the wharf and ships. Many of the steamers engaged in coastwise trade have large side ports which permit direct trucking by hand or electric trucks from the hold of the vessel to the pier, and vice versa, and at the wharves of the Merchants & Miners Transportation Co. electrically operated conveyors are installed on adjustable gangways and used to haul loaded trucks between the hold of the vessel and the wharf when there is considerable difference in elevation between the wharf and the vessel due to fluctuation of the tide. At terminals for coastwise vessels there are also loading and unloading berths, permitting the partial assembling of cargo for loading in the most convenient manner before the arrival of a vessel and eliminating confusion in sorting incoming and outgoing freight. The construction of steamers engaged in the coastwise trade, the design of the terminals used by the steamers, and the nature of the commodities handled all lend themselves to the use of the electric truck with trailers and the hand truck for loading and discharging vessels and distributing freight throughout the terminals. Coast- wise steamers run on regular schedules and receive quick dispatch and the terminals of the coastwise steamship lines are the most efficiently operated ones in the port. The movement through the port of cotton, cotton products, lumber, and naval stores, which are common to the coastwise and foreign business and which, with the import of fertilizer materials, form the bulk of the foreign commerce of the port, is of such nature that the methods of handling these commodities in not the same as the methods of handling general package freight. The commercial . methods involved in the sale of cotton, naval stores, and lumber require that these commodities be stored for varying periods of time before being loaded on vessels. As a result there are large shed and warehouse areas at the water and rail terminals used for storing cotton, large shed areas for storing turpentine, and large open yards for storing resin and lumber. These storage areas are of such mag- nitude that it is impossible for more than a small percentage of them to be immediately adjacent to steamer berths. As a conse— quence, cotton and naval stores, nearly all of which enter the port, 870 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. by rail, are unloaded from cars at the various wharves, warehouses, compresses, and yards, stored until reconsigned for water shipment, and then taken to ship side by lighters or over the wharves to steamer berth. Th the case of cotton, probably 50 per cent is carried to ship side by lighters, but nearly all naval stores pass over the wharf at which the steamer is berthed. - - The most striking feature of the method of handling freight at this port is the fact that over 75 per cent of both the cotton and naval stores taken from storage to ship side or lighter is transported by hand. The resin and turpentine, being in barrels, are rolled, and the cotton is carried on one-man hand trucks having a capacity of one bale. The cotton and naval stores handled in this manner are carried over an average distance of 1,000 feet and this haul in some cases is from one-third to one-half mile. Foreign-bound vessels loading at this port during the past few years have quite often required from two to three or even four weeks to load cargo which, with proper facilities, could have been loaded in one week or 1ess. This delay had not been due to the fact that cargo was not in port ready for shipment or because of inadequate facilities for trans- ferring cargo from ship side to ships, or because of improperly located and inadequate facilities for storing cargo, but has been due to the fact that facilities for transferring cargo from storage to ship side are entirely inadequate. *- - Shipping firms engaged in the foreign trade state that ships are delayed at this port not because of the lack of mechanical devices for loading from wharf to ship but because of the crude methods used for assembling cargo at steamers’ berths. There is no doubt that vessels engaged in foreign trade could effect a much quicker turn around if cargo could be placed within reach of the ships' gear and tackle more expeditiously. In order to relieve this condition, and also because of the serious shortage of labor during the war, a few electric trucks with trailers have been put in service at the ter- minal properties of the Ocean Steamship Co. and the Atlantic Coast Line Railway. These, or some other form of power truck, will Fºl. be the solution to the short haul between storage and ships, ut as yet this method of handling is developed only on a very small scale and is not receiving the attention that its importance merits. The average vessel engaged in the foreign trade of Savannah Harbor has a carrying capacity of about 5,000 tons of mixed cargo. These vessels as a rule come to the port for the purpose of loading cargo and not of discharging, as the foreign exports are three times as large as the foreign imports, and such vessels as do discharge cargo nearly all carry fertilizer materials consisting of pyrites and salts, É. which special unloading facilities are provided. Approximately 1,000 tons of the average mixed cargo which comprises the foreign exports of the port can be loaded on a vessel of 5,000 tons capacity in eight hours. Or, in other words, the average vessel engaged in the foreign trade and using the port can be loaded in about five days of eight hours each, if loading from ship side into the ship only is considered, but if several vessels foreign bound are loading simultaneously, their dis- patch is greatly retarded because of the fact that cargo can not be assembled for them as fast as it can be loaded with the ship's gear and tackle. - - - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 871 The one thing, therefore, that the port of Savannah needs most in order to be utilized to its fullest efficiency and in order to effect the rapid turn around of vessels is not more dockage space or more me- mechanical devices for handling cargo at ship side but more facilities and more efficient methods for asembling cargo on the terminals within reach of the ships' derricks. - The terminal property owned by the Ocean Steamship Co., which includes the portions operated under lease by the Central of Georgia Railroad Co. and the Merchants & Miners' Transportation Co., is on the right bank of the Savannah River from 0.76 to 1.77 miles below the Seaboard Air Line Railway bridge. This terminal is about 1 mile westward, or upstream, from the center of the business district of Savannah, and is connected with all points of the city by roads and paved streets. It has a frontage of approximately 1 mile on the Savannah River along the 26-foot channel, and on this frontage are four docks, each of which is surrounded on three sides by wharves which have a total docking space of 11,642 linear feet, affording 26 berths, with depths ranging from 19 to 26 feet. Adjacent to the docks on the wharves and their immediate vicinity are one-story warehouses, open sheds, and platforms, together with large areas of open well-drained ground. All of this storage space, both the open ground and that under cover, is served by standard-gauge spur tracks, and most of these areas are interconnected by roadways, wooden platforms, and truck ways. Motor and hand trucks are used for transporting commodities between the various warehouses and sheds, and locomotive cranes are used for handling heavy packages. All wharves, buildings, and sheds are in good condition, and the entire terminal supplied with adequate fire protection, The Central of Georgia Railway operates under lease from the Ocean Steamship Co. Docks Nos. 1, 2, 3 of this terminal, which are 900, 800, and 900 feet long, and 200, 200, and 225 feet wide, and the surrounding wharves have an available docking space of 7,900 linear feet, with depths of water ranging from 21 to 26 feet alongside. The wharves surrounding and connecting these docks have creosoted pile bulkheads along their rear face, wooden pile foundations, and wooden decks which are about 12 feet above mean low water. The wharves surrounding Dock No. 1 are covered with wooden sheds, having an area of 300,000 square feet, and this space is generally used for the storage of cotton. The wharves used in connection with Dock No. 2 are covered with wooden sheds having a floor area of 195,000 square feet and inclosed warehouses having a floor area of 204,000 square feet. These sheds and warehouses are generally used for storing Cotton and naval stores. Between Dock No. 2 and Dock No. 3, and on the wharf between the two is a frame warehouse with a floor area of 47,000 square feet. On the wharves surrounding Dock No. 3 are two long narrow open sheds, having a floor space of 140,000 square feet, which is used mainly for the storage of cotton, and west of and beyond Dock No. 3, and at right angles to the face of the wharf, are three wooden warehouses from 360 to 505 feet long, having a floor area of 115,000 square feet. These warehouses are used for storing fertilizer materials. In front of these warehouses along the face of the wharf is an overhead marginal platform which connects with the warehouses by means of lateral platforms. Spaced at intervals along the main marginal platform are guyed derricks used to hoist fertilizer 872 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. materials from the ship's hold into five movable hoppers on the over- head platform. These hoppers are placed opposite the ship's hatch that is to be unloaded and discharge into electric cars running on narrow-gage tracks over the marginal and lateral platforms into the warehouses where material is unloaded by gravity. The overhead platform and track system has an extension which is equipped with four 40-ton chutes for unloading bulk material directly into box cars. The material, after being dumped from electric cars into these chutes, is carried into box cars through another chute to a box-car loader, which distributes the material in the car. With the exception of this arrangement for the unloading of fertilizer materials, there are no mechanical devices for handling cargo at this terminal that are worthy of mention. All of the wharves and warehouses operated by the Central of Georgia Railway are served by spur tracks owned by this railway, and connecting through this railroad with all other roads entering the city. This terminal is open to the public on equal terms and the railroad, being a common carrier, serves the public on equal terms, regulated by the Interstate Commerce Commission. Practically all of the commodities passing through the terminal are exports for foreign countries or fertilizer salts imported from foreign countries destined for Savannah, and there is no prorating agreement, between rail and water carriers for foreign commerce, although through bills of lading are issued in some cases for the con- Venience of consignees, who must make their own arrangements for the payment of ocean freight. - The Ocean Steamship Co. terminal, which lies between Docks Nos. 1 and 2 of the Central of Georgia terminal, consists of a dock 1,000 feet long, which is owned and operated by the Ocean Steamship Co. This dock and the surrounding wharves, which have an available docking space of 2,630 linear feet, with depths of water alongside from 19 to 26 feet, is devoted entirely to the coastwise traffic carried by the Ocean Steamship Co., and is open for use to vessels of the Ocean Steamship Co. only. The terminal is connected with all parts of the city by paved streets and by city electric line which runs near by, and is served by spur connections owned by the Central of Georgia Railway, which interconnects with all railways entering the city. The rail facilities serving this property being owned by a com— mon carrier, are open to the public on equal terms, subject to regula- tion by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The wharves of the Ocean Steamship Co. have pile foundations, which are of wood up to about low-water line, and of concrete above this point, and the decks of the wharves, which are about 14 feet above mean low water, are of wood. The wharves are covered with steel-frame warehouses, sheathed and roofed with corrugated galvanized iron, and these buildings have a floor space of 331,000 square feet, which includes office buildings, a waiting room for passengers, and space for the storage of miscellaneous package freight. Seventeen tracks run into these buildings, permitting the simultaneous loading or unloading of 225 cars of freight, and five 10-ton overhead traveling cranes and hand trucks are used to transfer freight between cars and ware- houses and vessels. There is complete interchange of traffic between rail and water at this terminal, through bills of lading being issued, and freight charges based on prorating agreements, which are subject, to regulation by the Interstate Commerce Commission. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. , 873 The Merchants & Miners' Transportation Co. terminal, which is im- mediately downstream from Dock No. 1 of the Central of Georgia Railway terminal, consists of a wharf formed by a concrete bulk- head on wooden pile foundation. The wharf is covered with a one- story warehouse and shed of wood and corrugated galvanized iron, and had an available docking space of 1,112 feet, with depths of water alongside ranging from 20 to 30 feet. This property is owned by the Ocean Steamship Co. and is operated by the Merchants & Miners' Transportation Co. under lease, and is used by the vessels of this company exclusively. At the rear of the marginal warehouse and parallel to it are spur tracks owned by the Central of Georgia Rail- way, which interconnects with all other railroads entering the city. These rail facilities are open to the public on equal terms, subject to regulation by the Interstate Commerce Commission. Paved city streets give direct access to this property, which has a floor space of 152,000 square feet under cover, 121,000 square feet of this being warehouse and 31,000 square feet sheds. The deck of the wharf and the warehouse floors are about 14 feet above mean low water, and the spur tracks running along the rear of the warehouse are at such an elevation that the floors of cars are at the same elevation as the warehouse floors. Electric and hand trucks are used for handling freight from cars to warehouse and steamer, the steamers being loaded through large side ports. Adjustable gangways are placed from the wharf to these side ports, and two electrically operated Otis dock elevators are used to move trucks between the wharf and steamer when there is a great difference in elevation, due to the fluctuation of the tide. There is a complete interchange of traffic between rail and water at this terminal, º bills of lading being issued and charges based on prorating agreements regulated by the Interstate Commerce Commission.

This terminal, which consists of approximately 1 mile of wharves with wooden pile foundations and wooden decks at an elevation of about 12 feet at mean low water, is 1 mile eastward or downstream from the center of the business district of Savannah and is connected with all parts of the city by adequate improved highways and streets. The wharves have an available decking space of 4,975 feet with depths ranging from 16 feet to 29 feet and are open and covered with wooden sheds and warehouses. Brick and wooden warehouses, wooden sheds, and open platforms are constructed at the rear of the wharves and adjacent thereto, and there is a large area suitable for ground storage and other large areas of marshland which can be developed for storage space if more is required. Nearly all storage areas are interconnected by roads, wooden truckways, and spur tracks, and all buildings and sheds are in good condition and supplied with fire protection. The wharves and storage space are served by spur lines owned by the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad and connecting through the tracks of this road with all other roads entering the city. All of this terminal property is open to the public on equal terms. Practically all of the business passing through this terminal is foreign and there is no interchange of traffic between rail and water through prorating agreements, although through bills of lading are issued for some foreign shipments, the consignee making his own arrangements for the payment of , ocean freight. On the wharf proper there is 185,000 square feet of shed space, 145,000 square feet of which is used principally for cotton storage and the balance for the storage of turpentine, and 57,000 square feet of warehouse space designed and used mainly for the storage of fertilizer materials. The greater portion of the commodities passing through the terminal is handled by hand trucks or other hand methods, but where the haul from point of storage to ship side is very long, commodities are loaded into freight cars and spotted as near ship side as possible. A few electric trucks with trailers are also in use for moving shipments from storage to ship side, and fertilizer materials are handled by special equipment almost identical with that de- scribed at the Central of Georgia Railway terminal. The following is a tabulated statement of the approximate total available storage facilities at or near this terminal and used in con- junction with it: Atlantic Coast Line Ry, terminal storage space, in Square feet. -º-º- *::::: Adjacent Type of structure. - rails and to rails Total.

This terminal, which has a river frontage of about four- tenths mile along the 26-foot project channel, has a passenger ferry service with the city and is connected with all railroads entering the city of Savannah. There are no highway connections. The ter- minal serves foreign commerce almost exclusively and is open to the public on equal terms. There is no interchange of traffic between rail and water through prorating agreements, although through bills of lading are issued, the consignee making special arrangements for the payment of ocean freight. This terminal consists of three docks surrounded by wharves with wooden pile foundations and wooden decks at an elevation of about 12 feet above mean low water and has a total docking space of 11,941 feet with depths of from 15 to 24 feet alongside the wharves. On the wharves and adjacent to them are one-story wood and brick warehouses, open sheds, and platforms of wooden construction, together with areas of open ground space, some of which is unde- veloped marshland and some of which has been filled in and is suitable for ground storage. All storage areas, are interconnected by spur tracks or trucking platforms. Commodities are transferred from warehouses to ship side and vice versa by hand trucks or other hand methods, except in the case of fertilizer materials, which are handled in the same fashion as at the terminals previously described. All the docks are 200 feet wide and Dock No. 1 is 2,006 feet long; No. 2, 1,360 feet long; and No. 3, 1,780 feet long. On the wharves immediately adjacent to steamers berths there is 466,000 square feet of warehouse space, 338,000 square feet of shed space, and 766,000 square feet of open platform and ground space. The shed space at this terminal is generally used for the storage of cotton and turpen- tine, the warehouse space for the storage of cotton, fertilizer materials, and cottonseed meal, and cake, and the Open platform and ground space for the storage of rosin, lumber, and crossties. This terminal has good fire protection, in spite of which it was badly damaged by fire in February, 1919. It will, however, be reconstructed to at least its former capacity in a short time.

In addition to the three combined rail and water terminals there is over 1 mile of docking space at the developed water-front property scattered about the port. Only a very small portion of this docking space is suitable for the accommodation of seagoing vessels, and in practically all cases the individual wharves and piers serve only the particular industry to which they pertain. The most important of these properties are: The Savannah Sugar Refinery pier; the wharf of the Savannah Warehouse & Compress Co, which has inclosed warehouses with a floor area of 696,000 square feet and open sheds with a floor area of 296,000 square feet, all of which storage space is near the wharf; the Virginia–Carolina Chemical Co. wharf, at which fertilizer materials coming from foreign countries are unloadcq and handled in the same fashion as at the railroad terminals; the coal wharf of the Standard Fuel Supply Co.; the B. S. Herman coal wharf, which has a steam derrick for unloading and loading coal; the Taggart coal wharf, at which excellent mechanical coal-handling devices are now being installed; the Atlantic Compress Co. wharf, which has near-by storehouses with a floor area of 94,000 square feet and sheds with a floor area of 39,000 square feet; and the Stand- ard Oil Co. wharf, which has pipe lines through which tank steamers discharge to storage tanks ashore. The terminals operated by the Ocean Steamship Co. and the Merchants & Miners' Transportation Co. are types well suited for the various commercial purposes and adapted to the physical character- istics of Savannah Harbor. The Ocean Steamship Co. terminal is typical of the best form of construction providing a dock for the accommodation of vessels, and the Merchants & Miners' Transpor- tation Co. the best form of construction providing a wharf. The water of the Savannah River at Savannah is fresh and, as a conse- quence, there are no marine borers to destroy submerged foundations, and wooden foundations are practically permanent up to mean low water. Above this elevation the foundations should be of concrete in order to insure permanent construction. Fluctuations of the tide are provided for at all terminals by depressed runways leading from the decks of wharves down to a few }. above low water. These runways when used in connection with portable gangways provide an efficient method for loading or unloading with hand trucks at any stage of the tide. . The mechanical appliances for handling bulk cargo, such as fer- tilizer salts, as described in connection with the Central of Georgia. Railway terminal, have proven to be the most efficient for this par- ticular class of traffic, and the same methods with minor modifications are used at all terminals in the port which handles this bulk cargo. There is considerable room for improvement in the methods of handling miscellaneous package freight and cotton and naval stores, as with the demand for quicker turn around of vessels and the increased cost of labor the practice of moving these commodities by hand methods should be supplanted by the more economical power truck, conveyor systems, and other mechanical apparatus.

RATES. Union.— Present scale of wages being paid by Stevedores on export traffic is as follows: Stowage cotton, also timber when loaded out of water, experienced headers, 50 cents per hour; experienced gangmen, 45 cents per hour; all other cargo, expe- rienced headers, 45 cents per hour; experienced gangmen, 40 cents per hour; unskilled labor, 30 cents to 35 cents per hour; foremen, 60 cents per hour. Time and half time is allowed for night work, Sunday work, or holiday work. Night work is consid- ered to commence 6 p. m. Nonunion.—Same rate as paid union. LIGHTERAGE AND CAR FLOATS. There is no such service as car lighterage at this port nor lighterage limits. Lighterage charges.—Cargoes arriving at this port are switched from one railway terminal to another on cars as well as lightered. ... Cotton and naval stores are the prin- cipal commodities lightered, and these commodities are lightered in all cases except when they arrive on through line billings for coastwise movement, when in such cases same are switched by cars. In the case of lightering, unless charge is included in the rates, the regular terminal charge at the port for such service is assessed. The trans- portation companies do not operate a lighterage service but this is taken care of by an independent concern—the Savannah Lighterage & Transfer Co., under arrange- ment with the transportation companies at this port. © Time basis (rental)—Lighters can be rented at $25 per day. 880 wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. WHARFA.G.E. Wharfage charges are assessed by the railways at their docks or wharves on cargo handled over them as well as on cargo discharged onto lighters or other craft lying alongside. The Central of Georgia absorbs the wharfage and handling charges on all traffic beyond a certain defined territory which extends west to Corinth, Miss., and Chattanooga, Tenn., but storage charges are in addition to the rail rate. Within this territory all charges for wharfage handling and storage are in addition to the transporta- tion rate. The Atlantic Coast Line Tariff No. 9, I. C. C. No. B. 38 states “The trans- portation rates to or from Savannah, Ga., etc., will (except where otherwise provided) include wharfage, storage, and handling charges,” on traffic having origin or destina- * points not located within a certain defined territory as described in above tariff.

If any drayage is neces- sary it is done by special contract between shippers and transfer or dray company. DEMURRAGE OR DOCKAGE AT TERMINAL. (a) There is no charge for dockage at terminals, except where a vessel is unreason- ably lºyed for repairs or by other causes, a nominal dockage charge of $1.50 per day IS Iſla Cie. (b) No premium is allowed by terminal companies at this port for prompt depar- ture of vessels, as no charge is made for berthing of steamers when loading or discharging Cargo. - - Bluſ NKERING CELARGES. At docks.--Bunker coal is usually purchased at a price based on its being lightered and trimmed into bunkers at steamers loading or discharging berth. The present charge of 70 cents per long ton made by the port stevedores simply covers the hoisting of the coal from lighters lying alongside steamer and trimming the coal into steamer's bunkers. In addition to this 70 cents there is also involved the cost of handling coal from cars to coal docks, storage thereon, handling of coal from storage on lighters, rental of lighters and towage of lighters from coal docks to steamer's berth, from whence this charge of 70 cents per ton begins. These above named costs involve a charge of $1.29 per long ton. It has always been the custom here for steamer to take on bunkers while handling cargo, thereby consuming none of steamer's time. In stream.–Steamers never coal in stream at Savannah. Trimming.—Trimming charge is included in delivered price T.I. B. steamer's berth. SAVANNAH RIVER BELOW, AT, AND ABOVE AUGUSTA, GA. The Savannah River empties into the Atlantic Ocean its length being about 314 miles. The lower 50 miles of the river is tidal and the lower 27% miles comprises Savannah Harbor. The cities of Savannah (population 65,064) and Augusta (population 41,040) are the only two cities of any importance along }. portion of the river under improvement. The existing project of improvement provides for a navigable steamboat channel 5 feet deep at ordinary summer low water from Savannah to Augusta, Ga., a distance of 201 miles, for protecting the river bank in front of the city of Augusta, for about 3 miles and for establishing between Augusta and Petersburg 53 miles above a down- stream channel 12 to 15 feet in width navigable during ordinary summer low water for pole boats drawing 2 feet, and of an upstream channel navigable for pole boats drawing 1.2 feet. The average annual commerce passing over the Savannah River during the calendar years 1915 to 1917 inclusive was 51,000 tons, 47,000 tons of which was carried over that portion of the river below 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—56 882 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Augusta. Under prewar conditions the amount of commerce carried over the Savannah River between Savannah and Augusta. was about twice the average amount for the years 1915 to 1917. The principal commodities carried over the river below Augusta are cotton factory products, lumber, sugar, groceries and canned goods, and fertilizer, and the principal commodities carried over the river above Augusta are lumber, fertilizer, and cotton and linters. Irregu- lar steamboat schedules are maintained between Savannah and Augusta serving intermediate points, and the usual limit of draft for loaded boats is 6 feet. A large number of passengers and a con- siderable amount of freight are carried to the industrial plants located along the river between Savannah and Port Wentworth, by boats operating on regular schedules. Steamboats with a limit of draft of about 4 feet operate on the river above Augusta to a point about 19 miles above, and pole boats are used between Augusta and the upper limit of improvement. The only wharves located on this waterway are at Augusta and Savannah, its upper and lower points. Three railroads cross the Savannah River between these two points but there are no facilities for transferring freight at any of those crossings. There are numerous privately owned natural landings along the entire stretch of river under improvement and on some of these landings small sheds are maintained for the storage of freight. Nearly all of these landings have unimproved roads connecting with county roads and, so far as known, all are open to the public without charge. The city of Augusta owns and operates, on equal terms to all, a wharf and warehouse equipped with electrical elevator and loco- motive crane, and this property has physical connection with the railways and streets of the city. The wharf is formed by a wooden sheet pile bulkhead with an earth fill protected by paving stone and is suitable as a berth for river steamers. At Savannah, the ocean terminal port of the river, there are two municipal wharves open to the public on equal terms, suitable as berths for river vessels, as well as private wharves operated by the steamboat lines navigating the river. All of these wharves have adequate highway connections and all, except the municipal wharf 1.2 miles above the Seaboard Air Line Railway, have physical connection with all railroads entering Savannah. It is thought that the terminal and transfer facilities at present, available on this river are adequate to serve existing commerce and the prospective future commerce for several years. - FERNANDINA HARBOR, FLA. General description of the port.—Fernandina Harbor lies at the extreme northern end of the Florida coast and is 23 miles by sea north of the entrance to Jacksonville Harbor, and 24 miles by sea south of the entrance to Brunswick Harbor, Ga. The harbor con- sists of Amelia River, a tidal estuary forming a basin about 2 miles long which connects with the ocean through Cumberland Sound and affords an anchorage of 160 acres with a depth of 25 feet somewhat obstructed by shoals. The city of Fernandina, which had a popula- tion of about 3,500 according to the 1910 census, and all terminal and transfer facilities are located on the western side of Amelia WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 883 Island which lies on the eastern side of Amelia River and separates it from the sea. The existing project for improvement provides for a channel 19 feet deep through Cumberland Sound and over Cumberland Bar, this channel to be obtained by means of jetties and dredging and a dredged channel in the inner harbor 20 feet to 24 feet deep with widths varying from 400 to 600 feet extending a short distance above the city of Fernandina. It is about 7 miles from the upper end of the harbor and of terminal development to the sea. All depths in this report are referred to mean low water, and the mean tº range is about 6 feet throughout the harbor. Fernandina has no manufacturing industries worthy of mention and does not serve as a distributing point for any inland territory. As a direct consequence of these conditions the port is purely one of export, such commodities as enter the port being of local origin from adjacent waterways and shipped to Fernandina for exportation to foreign countries or coastwise to North Atlantic ports. The port has, in the past four years, developed an important fishing business and shrimp and fish are brought in by small launches of about 4 feet draft, and shipped by rail to all parts of the United States. The Fºl commodities entering and leaving the port coastwise are umber, crossties and naval stores, and the principal commodities shipped to foreign countries are phosphate rock, lumber, cross- ties, and naval stores. There are practically no foreign imports and a considerable portion of the lumber, crossties and naval stores entering the port is transported in rafts and on river barges from local waterways. The number of sailing vessels and of steamers entering and clearing at Fernandina is about equal, and the usual limits of draft for sailing vessels are from 15 feet to 21 feet, and for steamers from 19 feet to 23 feet with occasional entries or clearances of steamers drawing as much as 27 feet. Table 1 which follows gives the average tonnage of coastwise and foreign outbound and inbound traffic for the calendar years 1915 to 1917 inclusive. The total business of the port before the war was about four times the average shown in Table 1. TABLE 1. g Coastwise Foreign. and local. Total.

There is a total of 6,032 linear feet, of docking space at the port of Fernandina, of which 3,002 feet are owned by the Seaboard Air Line Railway, and 3,030 feet are owned by private individuals, or corporations. The property owned by the Seaboard Air Line Railway is open to the public on equal terms ex- cept such portions as are leased to individuals or corporations, but 884 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. practically all of the privately owned property is reserved for private use and subject to use by others than the owners only by special contract. All terminal and wharf properties with the exception of two privately owned wharves have spur lines connecting with the Seaboard Air Line marginal track along the water front, and nearly all are connected with the city of Fernandina by hard-surfaced roads. The city of Fernandina and Amelia Island are connected with the mainland by road, and the Seaboard Air Line Railway has a direct line to Montgomery and Birmingham, Ala., via Atlanta, Ga. There is an ample supply of good water for boiler and drinking purposes at the port and there is an electric power plant in the city which can supply power to water-front property. Practically all of the ter- minal property at Fernandina has been allowed to deteriorate rap- idly in the past few years due to the fact that there has been very little demand for its use, but it can all be restored to its former con- dition and efficiency at a reasonable cost if necessity demands. Adequacy of terminals.-The commerce of the port is rather evenly distributed among the various terminals with the exception of the exportation of phosphate rock, and the greater portion of the berth- ing space at the port is suitable for seagoing vessels. At the present time there is at least 5,000 feet of docking space available for use, and as the average commerce passing through the port for the past three years has been only 131,000 tons, the flow of commodities through the port terminals has been at the average rate of 26 tons per linear foot of docking space per annum. Under normal condi- tions before the war, when the commerce of the port amounted in round numbers to 500,000 tons, the flow of commodities through the port was at the rate of 100 tons per linear foot of docking space per annum. Before the war, however, about 40 per cent of the total tonnage passing through the port passed over the terminal espe- cially devoted to the handling of phosphate rock, and as this terminal has a total docking space of only 946 feet the flow of commodities through the balance of the terminal property in the port, which had a docking space of approximately 4,000 feet, was at the rate of only 75 tons per linear foot of docking space per annum, and at the phos- phate wharf at the rate of about 200 tons per linear foot of docking Space per annum. Other ports along the Georgia coast, whose com- merce is similar in character to the commerce of Fernandina and whose port facilities are also similar, experience no difficulty in handling traffic through the port terminals at a rate in excess of 100 tons per linear foot of docking space per annum, and Fernandina has in the past been able to efficiently handle all business offered and, it is thought, could care for a greater volume of business than has ever passed through the port if its present terminal facilities were put in good condition. Hardly any of the commodities passing through Fernandina require covered areas for storage, and the open-storage areas on wharves and on land adjacent to both rail and water are considered ample to care for the present business of the port and that which may be anticipated for several years to come. Port administration, and port charges.—The port is under the con- trol of the State of Florida, and administrative authority is exercised through a harbor master and five pilot commissioners appointed by the governor of Florida, by and with the consent of the State legis- lature. The harbor master governs the movement of vessels within WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 885 the harbor and is allowed $20 for each vessel docked and $5 for each vessel shifted from one berth to another. One per cent of all pilots' fees are turned over to the board of pilot commissioners, who estab- lish rules governing the pilots, and pilot fees are as follows: Bar pilotage. Draft (feet): Pilotage. Draft (feet): Pilotage. JDraft ( feet): Pilotage. 6------------- $12.00 14% - - - - - - - - - - - $65. 00 22}- - - - - - - - - - $135.00 6%------------ 16. 75 15- - - - - - - - - - - - 72.

Loading and discharging charges are not regu- lated, but wharfage charge and storage charges are subject to the approval of the Interstate Commerce Commission. A schedule of these charges is given in Appendix A to this report. Public ownership of water front.—There is no publicly owned water front suitable for development, as terminal property or already developed as such at this port and although there is sufficient terminal property open to the public on equal terms to meet the demands of present commerce it is thought that it would be advisable for the municipality to acquire reasonable amount of water front property which could be developed as a terminal for local and coastwise com- merce at some future date. - Public interest in and utilization of terminal and navigation facili- ties available.—The city of Fernandina has a board of trade which interests itself in matters pertaining to the port and before the war the available facilities of the port were largely used. The commerce of the port has decreased to such an extent in the past few years, however, that most of the terminal property of the port has been allowed to deteriorate. The majority of the vessels using the port at the present time are from 15 to 22 feet draft although one vessel entered the port during 1918 drawing 27% feet. Eristing rail and water connections.—Fernandina is served only by one railroad, the Seaboard Air Line, which has a direct line to the west and has connections to the north and south. This railroad owns about 50 per cent of the developed water front property at Fernandina and, because it has no competition, virtually controls the commerce of the port that is dependent upon rail haul. There are no lines of steamships with regular sailings from the port, but 886 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. various lines of steamers, tramp steamers, and sailing vessels make sailings to European ports, and coastwise. A small steamer of about 6 feet draft makes about two trips per week between Fernan- dina and Brunswick and there is a daily service by launch for pas- sengers and a limited amount of freight between Fernandina and St. Marys, Ga. - General efficiency of the port.-The terminal and wharf property at this port is well situated in that the natural depths of water along the face of the wharves are nearly always sufficient for vessels using them and as there are no sedimentary streams flowing into the harbor very little dredging for maintenance of navigable depths is necessary. The Seaboard Air Line Railway maintains adequate spur connections to all terminal property of importance and in many cases depressed tracks are carried along the wharves so that com- modities can be easily unloaded from car to deck of wharf and thence to vessels and vice versa. This railway owns and operates a phos- phate elevator which has a capacity of 200 tons per hour and which is described in detail in another part of this report, and this plant could be used, with slight alterations, for handling other bulk com- modities such as coal. There are no facilities for furnishing bunker coal at the port at the present time and none for ships repairs. The storage facilities immediately adjacent to both rail and water and at present available consist of a phosphate elevator with storage capacity of 2,000 tons of bulk cargo; three one-story warehouses with a floor area of 31,000 square feet, two sheds with a floor space of 9,600 square feet and open storage space, served by spur tracks, on wharfs and at the rear of wharves, aggregating about 475,000 square feet. The Seaboard Air Line Railway has a yard sufficient to accommodate 600 cars. Methods of handling cargo and dispatch.--The only mechanical installation of any importance for transferring cargo between vessels and wharf or storehouse is the phosphate elevator owned and operated by the Seaboard Air Line Railway. This elevator can transfer phosphate rock from car to ships at the rate of 200 tons per hour, and all operations necessary for moving this bulk commodity from the car to the vessel are performed by machinery. One other wharf which was used for handling cross ties had excellent mechanical equipment by means of which cross ties could be moved from any point on the storage yard and placed on board a vessel docked at the wharf serving this yard, but due to lack of business this property has deteriorated to such an extent that it is unfit for use. With the exception of phosphate rock, all commodities passing through the port are moved from point of storage or from cars to shipside by hand and loaded with ships gear and tackle, and the business of the port is of such nature that under existing conditions no other methods are considered necessary. D]ETAILED DESCRIPTION OF IMPORTANT TERMINALS. The Seaboard Air Line phosphate elevator wharf is the only port terminal at Fernandina which has any features of more than ordinary interest. This wharf is located near the lower end of water front development of the city and is constructed entirely of wood. The wharf has a total length of 946 feet with depths of from 20 to 25 feet WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 887 * alongside and at about the center of the wharf is an elevator with a storage capacity of 2,000 tons, especially designed for loading phos- phate rock into vessels. At the rear of the elevator is an inclined track up which box cars and bottom dump cars are pushed by loco- motives. Box cars are placed on a “rocker” which tilts them and discharges bulk material into a hopper. Underneath the hopper is a horizontal bucket conveyor which carries material to another vertical bucket conveyor which in turn elevates the material and discharges it into storage bins or into hoppers, which have adjustable chutes leading into the hold of a vessel lying alongside the wharf, and which discharges through these chutes into the vesesl by gravity. This same sequence and methed of procedure are followed in handling materials from bottom dump cars, except that these cars are un- loaded into a hopper by gravity instead of by machinery. All handling operations in connection with the plant are performed by steam power and the entire plant, which can load 200 tons of phos- phate rock per hour directly from cars or from storage to vessel, is very efficient.

A docking charge of $15 per vessel per day is made for vessels berthed at terminals in this port. ST. MARYS RIVER, GA. AND FLA. The St. Marys River empties into Cumberland Sound about 3 miles north of Fernandina, Fla. It has a total length of 180 miles, but only the lower 80 miles, which are affected by the tide, are used to any extent for navigation. The existing project for improvement pro- vides for a channel 17 feet deep and 200 feet wide from the mouth to Crandall, 12.5 miles above, and for clearing the channel of Snags to Kings Ferry, 37 miles above the mouth, and as much farther as may be practicable, for the sum of $5,000. The mean tidal range at the mouth of the river is 5.9 and at a point 55 miles above the mouth 1.4 feet, and all depths in this report are referred to mean low water. About 90 per cent of the total commerce of this river is carried over the lower 10 miles of improvement and passes through the town of St. Marys, which lies about 54 miles above the mouth of the river. Ocean-going vessels enter and leave this river through Cumberland Sound, passing through the improved channel, over Cumberland Bar, which serves as the ocean entrance for both Fernandina Harbor and the St. Marys River. The average annual commerce of the St. Marys River for the calendar years 1915 and 1917, inclusive, was 52,000 tons, and the greater portion of this tonnage consisted of lumber and lumber products brought down the river to St. Marys and there loaded on sea- going vessels for coastwise shipment. The usual limits of draft for Seagoing vessels using this river is about 20 feet and for loaded boats on the upper portion from 3 to 4 feet. The St. Marys River has four main loading points, namely, Kings Ferry, Fla.; Germantown, Ga.; Crandall, Fla.; and St. Marys, Ga., which is the ocean port terminal for the river. There are numerous natural landings along the river banks and at some points small timber wharves have been constructed. The wharves at Crandall, mileage 12%, and Kings Ferry, mileage 37, are only a few hundred feet in length and are owned by the sawmill companies located at these points. At Germantown, mileage 35, owing to the high, steep bank, good natural landings exist and no wharves are necessary for loading such commodities as are handled at that point. There are fair roads to the main loading points enumerated above, and in general the various landings along the river are reached by unimproved roads which connect with county road systems. The Seaboard Air Line crosses the river about 23 miles from its mouth, but there are no facilities for the transfer of freight between rail and water at this point. At the town of St. Marys (population, 691), which lies on the left or north side of the river about 5% miles from its mouth, there are eight WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 889 º” wharves and one mooring, affording a total docking space of 1,640 linear feet, about 950 feet of which is suitable as berths for ocean- going vessels and the balance of which is suitable and used for local craft engaged in fishing and other local business. All of these wharves are served by the Altamaha, Waycross & Northern Railway, a local line running to Kingsland, Ga., where it connects with the Seaboard Air Line Railway, and all are connected to the town of St. Marys by streets or improved roads. The town of St. Marys owns the foot of all streets terminating on the water front and a municipal wharf with a frontage of 50 feet. This wharf, however, has been leased to private parties and is not open to the public at the present time. The exist- ing facilities on the St. Marys River are considered adequate for exist- ing commerce and there is ample undeveloped water front for any increase in terminal facilities that might become necessary. There are no port officials at St. Marys, the pilots for Fernandina Harbor and Cumberland Sound serving as pilots for the port of St. Marys, and the only port charges are pilot fees, which are the same as for Fernandina Harbor. There are no facilities for furnishing bunker coal or for ship repairs at St. Marys, and the storage space available at the port is of limited . extent and in proportion to the docking space. All cargo is loaded on vessels by ship gear and tackle, either from the water or trans- ported over the wharves to ship side by hand, and then loaded by ship gear and tackle. Owing to the character and extent of the busi- ness of this port, no other methods of cargo handling are considered necessary. ALTAMAHA RIVER, GA. The Altamaha River is formed by the confluence of the Oconee and Ocmulgee Rivers and empties into the Atlantic Ocean through Several branches. The port of Darien is located on one of these branches, and this port, Sapelo Harbor, and Brunswick Harbor, which are connected with the river by the inside waterway, serve as its Ocean port terminals. The lower 34 miles of the river are tidal and the mean tidal variation at the mouth is 6 feet. The existing project for improvement includes the Oconee and Ocmulgee Rivers and provides for the maintenance of a 3-foot depth during ordinary summer low water, and the gradual increase of chan- nel depth up to 4 feet so far as practicable. -- The average annual commerce carried over this waterway during the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 65,000 tons, or a little over one-half the normal commerce before the war. The principal commodities comprising this commerce are lumber, cotton, naval stores, and general merchandise, and most of these commodities are carried over the entire length of the river. Lumber is practically all floated down the river in rafts and the other commodities are carried on river steamers where limit of draft is about 5 feet. During the past year a regular steamboat service has been maintained between the Georgia & Florida Railway crossing at mile 135 and Brunswick. So far as is known few changes of any importance have taken place in the terminal and transfer facilities of the Altamaha system as described in the report of 1913 on water terminal and transfer facil- ities and as revised by the last annual report of the Chief of Engineers, 890 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. and the following data are taken from these reports and revised so as to include any known changes. Three trunk-line railroads cross this river, but facilities for transfer of freight between rail and water are provided only by the Atlantic Coast Line Railway at Doctortown, 60 miles from the mouth, where there is a 200-foot timber wharf suitable as a landing for river boats, and a freight elevator for handling freight from wharf to storage sheds on grade with the railroad and above the flood height of the river. There are numerous natural privately owned landings along both sides of the river. These landings are in most cases connected to county roads by unimproved roads through the river's flood plain, and, so far as known, all are open to the public on equal terms. OCONEE RIVER, GA. The Oconee River joins with the Ocmulgee River to form the Altamaha. The lower 145 miles of this river are under improvement and the city of Milledgeville (population, 4,385) lies at the upper end of improvement, and the city of Dublin (population 5,795) 78 miles from the mouth. The average annual commerce carried on this river during the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 28,000 tons. The prin- cipal commodities carried were lumber and lumber products, cotton and cotton seed, fertilizer, and groceries. There are three river steamers operated by the Oconee Steamboat Co., of Dublin, Ga., over that portion of the river between miles 40 and 101, and the draft of these vessels is between 1 foot and 2% feet. Considerable quan- tities of pine lumber and hardwood are rafted to various sawmills along the river and there are several barges and launches in use on the river in the vicinity of Dublin. The Oconee River is crossed by three railroads between The Forks and Milledgeville, but facilities for transfer between rail and water carriers are found only at Dublin, where the the Central of Georgia Railway has a small timber wharf with an inclined railway for han- dling freight to storage sheds on grade with the railroad track above the flood height of the river. There are numerous privately owned natural landings on both sides of the river throughout the entire length under improvement, and these landings, which are in most cases connected to improved county roads by unimproved roads through the flood plain of the river are, so far as known, open to the public on equal terms. & OCMULGEE RIVER, GA. The Ocmulgee joins with the Oconee to form the Altamaha. The lower 205 miles of this river are under improvement and along this stretch of river are located the following towns: Macon (population, 40,665) at mile 285; Hawkinsville (population, 3,420) at mile 135; Abbeville (population, 1,201) at mile 96, and Lumber City (popula- tion, 1,195) at mile 12. The average annual commerce carried on this river during the cal- endar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 27,000 tons. The principal commodities carried were lumber, cotton and cotton products, naval stores, fertilizer, and general merchandise. Most of this commerce was carried over the entire section under improvement, the lumber WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 891 being rafted and other products carried by river steamers with a limited draft of about 4 feet. A through line of self-propelled river barges was operated for a time between Macon and Brunswick and Savannah, but the line has been discontinued and there is at the present time only an intermittent service by river steamers over various portions of the river. The Ocmulgee River is crossed by railroads at the following points: Macon, Ga., mile 205, Central of Georgia Railway and the Macon, Dublin & Savannah Railway; mile 195, Southern Railway; Hawkins- ville, mile 135, Wrightsville & Tennille and Southern Railways; Abbeville, mile 66, Seaboard Air Line Railway, and Lumber City, mile 12, Southern Railway. At Macon there is a municipally owned wharf open to the public without charge, and a warehouse owned by the Brunswick & Macon Navigation Co. with an inclined railway for transfer of freight between wharf and warehouse and with a spur track from warehouse to railroad. This terminal has adequate high- way connections. At Hawkinsville there are no mechanical con- trivances for the transfer of freight between rail and water, such transfer being made by drays, and it is understood that traffic arrange- ments exist between the railroad and local boat line. At Abbeville the Seaboard Air Line Railway maintains a wharf and warehouse open to the public on equal terms. Transfer of freight between this warehouse and wharves is by drays. At Lumber City the Seaboard Air Line Railway maintains a wharf and warehouse equipped with suitable elevating machinery for the transfer of freight between rail and water carriers, and open to the public on equal terms. At Barrows Bluff, mile 45, the Georgia & Florida Railway has a sºur track to the river and maintains a warehouse. At Mosquito Bluff, mile 32, the Ocmulgee Lumber Co. tramway touches the river at a natural landing. In addition to the foregoing there are numer- ous privately owned natural landings on both sides of the river throughout the entire length under improvement, and these landings, which are in most cases connected to improved county roads by unimproved roads through the flood plain of the river are, so far as is known, open to the public on equal terms. There are, on the entire Altamaha River system, about 150 land- ings, some few of which are improved by timber wharves and ware- houses, and practically all of which have highway connections which are in general poor until the flood plain of the river is crossed, where they connect with fairly good county roads. Nearly all of the land- ings are privately owned, but, so far as is known, all are open to the public free of charge, and at certain points there is an interchange of traffic between rail and water carriers with charges based on prorating agreement. The freight carried over this river system is all carried between local points, except lumber which is floated down the river in rafts, there being no through line of boats. g It is thought that the existing terminal facilities are adequate to care for existing commerce, although the construction of well-im- proved roads parallel to the river and a few miles from it, with improved branch roads to the landings along the river and to the county road system, would make the river accessible to large areas of timber and farming land which it does not serve at the present time. It is not thought that publicly owned terminals other than those already in existence are necessary under existing conditions. The citizens of the Various towns and cities and the rural residents along 892 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the river system take a great interest in the utilization of the navi- gation facilities available and have evidenced this interest by the operation of boats where practicable and by their efforts to obtain further improvement of the various rivers forming the Altamaha System. SATILLA RIVER, GA. The Satilla River empties into St. Andrews Sound, the entrance to which is 10 miles south of the entrance to Brunswick Harbor, Ga. The river is 350 miles long, the lower 67 miles being tidal, and it is navigated by river steamers to the Atlantic Coast Line Railway bridge, 93 miles from the mouth. The existing project for improvement provides for the removal of snags and similar obstructions from the mouth to Burnt Fort, a dis- tance of 52 miles, and the removal of obstructions and closing of in- cipient cut-offs from Burnt Fort to Waycross, a distance of 114 miles. The mean tidal range at the mouth is 6.9 feet and at Burnt Fort 3.4 feet, and all depths in this report are referred to mean low Water. - The average annual commerce passing over the river during the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 50,000 tons, or about one-half the normal commerce under prewar conditions. The prin- cipal commodities carried are lumber, naval stores, and general mer- chandise, and nearly all of these commodities are carried over the lower 50 miles of the river over which an intermittent steamboat service is maintained from Brunswick. The limit of draft for sea- going vessels which use the lower 32 miles is about 16 feet, and for º operating to the Atlantic Coast Line Railway bridge about 3 feet. Since this river is connected with Brunswick Harbor by the inside waterway and as Brunswick is the nearest and most accessible port with adequate terminal facilities, rail connections, and regular lines of steamers, a large portion of the commerce passing over this stream either originates at or is destined for Brunswick. The Satilla River has 10 main shipping points, the principal ones of these being at Ceylon, 20 miles from the mouth; Seaboard Air Line Railroad crossing at Woodbine, mile 26; Refuge, mile 30; Owens Ferry Mills, mile 32; Clarks Bluff, mile 35; Bullhead Bluff, mile 40.5; and Burnt Fort, mile 52. Small wharves exist at these points and there are other natural landings used mainly by the Sa- tilla River Steamboat Co., and numerous small launches handling freight to and from Brunswick by the use of barges. So far as is known all landings and wharves are privately owned but open to the public on equal terms and all have fair highway connections. The Seaboard Air Line Railway wharf at Woodbine and the Refuge Lum- ber Co. wharf at Refuge are the only ones with mail connections, and traffic arrangements exist between the Satilla River Steamboat Co. and some of the railroads at Brunswick for shipment to points on this river, also between this boat line and the Seaboard Air Line Tailway at Woodbine. There are no mechanical devices for handling cargo and no pub- licly owned terminals on this river but, owing to the character and extent of the commerce, the present available facilities are consid— ered adequate. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 89.3 SAPELO, GA. The entrance to Sapelo Harbor is 36 miles south of the entrance to Savannah Harbor, Ga. The inner harbor where vessels moor is lo– cated on the lower 1% miles of Front River, a deep tidal estuary about 6 miles long, which empties into Sapelo Sound. The distance from the ºth of Front River to the sea through Sapelo Sound is about 12 miles. - The existing project for improvement provides for dredging a chan- nel 150 feet wide and 17 feet deep through two bars in Front River. The mean tidal range on Sapelo Bar is 7 feet and in Front River 7, feet and all depths in this report are referred to mean low water. There is no town at the harbor and neither railroad or wagon road connection to the loading berths which are used only for the shipment of lumber brought in rafts over the inside waterway from the Port of Darien and loaded in vessels of 20-foot draft and under at Sapelo because of the greater depth available in Front River and on Sapelo Bar, as compared with the depths available at Darien Harbor and Doboy Bar. During the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, the average annual commerce of this port was 18,000 tons. Prior to the war the commerce of the port was about three times this amount and all of this passed through four loading berths consisting of clusters of mooring piles connected to the shore by small piers or runways. Each of these moorings is suitable for making fast one vessel of the type using. this port and lumber is loaded on the vessel from the water by means of ship gear and tackle. All loading berths are pri- vately owned and operated and are considered adequate for the busi- ness passing through the port and for probable future business. The only port officials are the pilots of Darien Harbor who are also pilots for Sapelo Harbor and whose fees are the same for Sapelo as for Darien. . Loading charges are $1.50 per thousand board feet of lumber and this is the only commodity passing through this port. WATERWAY BETwºFN BEAUFORT, S. C., AND ST. Johns RIVER, FLA. This waterway is tidal throughout its entire length and extends for a distance of 229 miles from Beaufort, S. C., to the St. Johns River, Fla., and, including auxiliary channels, has a total length of 265 miles. It forms a part of the inland water route along the At- lantic coast from New York, N. Y., to Key West, Fla., and connects the ports of Beaufort, S. C.; Savannah, Ga.; Sapelo, Ga.; Darien, Ga.; Brunswick, Ga.; St. Marys, Ga.; Fernandina, Fla.; and Jack- sonville, Fla., by a protected waterway navigable at all stages of the tide and throughout its entire length for boats drawing 5 feet, and for boats drawing up to 11 feet if jº. e is taken of the tides. In addition to the ports enumerated above, this waterway gives ac- cess to numerous bays and inlets and the fresh-water rivers emptying into the Atlantic Ocean, along the coast which it borders. It inter- connects and makes accessible by water the almost continuous chain of islands which border the Carolina, Georgia, and Florida coasts, and these islands protect this route from the wave and wind action of the Atlantic Ocean. 894 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The existing project for improvement of this waterway provide for a channel 7 feet deep at mean low water between Beaufort, S. C., and St. Johns River, Fla. The mean tidal range on the Beaufort- Savannah section is from 6.5 to 7 feet, on the Savannah-Fernandina section about 7 feet, and on the Fernandina-St. Johns River section about 4 to 6 feet. In addition to the main route auxiliary channels are provided for on the Savannah-Fernandina section at Three Mile Cut near Darien, Club, and Plantation Creeks near Brunswick, a pro- tected channel with a depth of 3 feet at mean low water around St. Andrews Sound and a channel 8 feet deep at mean low water to the southern end of Cumberland Island near Fernandina. The average annual commerce over the Beaufort-Savannah section for the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 53,000 tons, or about one-third th. commerce under normal prewar conditions, and the principal commodities comprising this commerce were: Fish, oys- ters and oyster shells; lumber and cross ties; cotton and cotton products, and general merchandise. Practically all of these com- modities were carried over the entire length of waterway by steamers operating on regular schedule between Savannah and Beaufort, S. C., and by launches, and tugs towing barges and rafts. The usual limit of draft for loaded boats operating on this section is from 3 to 6 feet with a maximum of 9 feet. The average annual commerce over the Savannah-Fernandina sec- tion for the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 129,000 tons, or about one-half the commerce under normal prewar conditions, and the principal commodities comprising this commerce were: Lum- ber and lumber products; fish, oysters, shrimp, etc.; naval stores, and miscellaneous merchandise. This commerce was carried over separate stretches of the route by steamers operating between Darien, Brunswick, and Fernandina, and by launches and tugboats towing barges or rafts. The usual limit of draft for loaded boats operating in this section is from 3 to 6 feet with a maximum of 12 feet. The average annual commerce over the Cumberland Sound—St. Johns River section for the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 33,000 tons and equaled the volume of commerce during previous years. The principal commodities comprising this commerce were lumber and crossties, fish, shrimp, oysters, etc. Practically all the fish, shrimp, and oysters were carried over this waterway in launches of from 3 to 5 feet draft, and the lumber and crossties were towed in barges by tugs with a limit of draft of about 7 feet. In addition to the commerce passing over the various sections of the waterway as enumerated above, a great many launches, yachts, and house boats pass over the entire length of this waterway bound from North Atlantic ports to Florida ports, and vice versa, and iarge numbers of passengers are carried between the ports located along this waterway and Between small towns and rural communities lying on fresh water and tidal streams connecting with it. Beaufort, S. C., to Savannah, Ga., section.—This portion of the inside waterway serves, exclusive of terminal facilities at Savannah, Ga., 25 wharves, of which 5 are owned by the Government, 2 are leased by the Government, and the remainder are privately owned. Eleven of these wharves are at Beaufort, the remainder being located at irregular intervals along the route. The total docking space at all the wharves is 1,960 feet, and all are of the open-pile and timber WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 895 type, except the Government wharf at Paris Island, which is built of steel pile with a timber superstructure. None of these wharves have mechanical unloading devices; 1 has railway connection and 16 have highway connections, and it is understood that all but the Govern- ment wharves are open to the public on equal terms. Steamboat lines operating out of Savannah over this section of the inside route own, or control through lease, their own wharf property, which is used by them exclusively and have traffic arrangements with the coastwise steamship lines operating at Savannah, but have no such arrange- ments with railroad companies. There are two municipal wharves at Savannah, open to the public on equal terms, both of which have highway connections and one of which has rail connection with all railroads entering the city and both suitable as berths for vessels using this waterway. The facilities at present existing at Savannah and Beaufort and along this route between these two points are considered ample for existing commerce and for probable future needs. Savannah, Ga., to Fernandina, Fla., section.—Exclusive of terminal facilities at the ports of entry at Savannah, Darien, Sapelo, Bruns- wick, and Fernandina, this improvement serves 52 wharves, all of which, with the exception of 4 wharves having concrete piling and with a total frontage of 420 feet, are of the open-pile and timber type, and the total docking space at all of these wharves is 2,694 feet. These wharves are located at irregular intervals along the route, and many of them have been allowed to deteriorate because of the lack of demand for their use during the past three years; 25 of them are open to the public on equal terms; 6 are for the exclusive use of steamboat companies, and 21 are privately owned. All of these wharves have highway connections, none have railway connections, and none have mechanical unloading devices. The port of Darien has a municipal wharf suitable as a berth for vessels using their route, but this wharf has recently been leased to a private corporation because there was no great demand for its use. At Brunswick traffic arrangements exist between the steamer operating over this portion of the route and the Clyde Steamship Co., but there are no prorating agreements on freight traffic between this boat and the railroads. The existing facilities on this portion of the route are considered ample for existing commerce and the probable demand of future COIſlnſhëTC0. Cumberland Sound to St. Johns River section.—Exclusive of ter- minal facilities at the two terminal ports, Fernandina and Jackson- ville, Fla., this improvement serves five small wharves of the open- pile and timber type at Amelia City and one at Fort George Inlet. All of these wharves, which are privately owned, but open to the Fº on equal terms, have highway connections, but none of them ave either railway connections or mechanical unloading devices. In view of the fact that this link in the waterway is used mainly for through towing from Fernandina to Jacksonville and for the passage of yachts and motor boats, these facilities are considered ample for existing commerce and for any probable commerce that may develop in the future. - 896 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. DARIEN, GA. The entrance to Darien Harbor, Ga., is 18.4 miles north of the entrance to Brunswick Harbor, Ga. The harbor includes the lower 12 miles of Darien River from the town of Darien, where the channel width is about 300 feet, to where the river enters Doboy Sound, where the channel width is about 1,000 feet. . The existing project for im- provement provides for the removal of seven shoals between Darien and Doboy by dredging, to secure a depth of 12 feet at mean low water, and for the construction of spur dams at five of these shoals for maintaining the depth of the improved channel. The mean tidal range is 7 feet on Doboy Bar and 6% feet at Darien, and all depths in this report are referred to mean low water. The town of Darien, which had a population of 1,131, according to the census of 1910, is located on the north or left bank of Darion River about 18 miles from the sea. , Darien River forms part of and connects with the delta system of the Altamaha River. Practically the only commodity passing through the port is lumber, which is brought to Darien from points on the Altamaha River system in rafts, loaded on barges or schooners, and carried coastwise. The average annual business passing through the port for the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, was 100,000 tons, which equaled ap- proximately one-half the normal tonnage passing through the port under normal prewar conditions. The usual limit of draft for seagoing vessels using the harbor is about 15 feet. At the port of Darien there are only two parcels of improved water-front property with docking space at wharves or piers. One of these wharves is located at the town of Darjen and is owned by the town. The other is located at Lower Bluff about 2% miles below Darjen and on an arm of the main river. The wharf owned by the town of Darien has in the past been operated as a municipal wharf open to all on equal tº rms, but was recently leased to a shipbuilding company for private use. The wharf at Lower Bluff is privately owned and operated for the use of the owner exclusively. In addition to these wharves there are numer- ous moorings consisting of rows of piles and pile clusters on both sides of Darien River above and below the town, and these moorings are used for making fast lumber rafts and for mooring schooners which load lumber from rafts.lying alongside in the water. The available tacilities of the port are considered ample for existing commerce and for possible future needs. The Georgia Coast & Piedmont Railway, which runs from Bruns- wick to Collins, Ga., where it connects with the Seaboard Air Line Railway, passes through Darien, but the road is in the hands of a receiver and gives such poor service that it is of very little value to the port. There are no coaling or repair facilities at the port, and no necessity therefor, and the storage facilities are as limited as the docking facilities, except that there is an almost unlimited area available for the storage of rafts of lumber in the water, and at times several millions of feet of lumber are stored at Darien in this manner. Cargo is loaded on vessels in all cases by ship gear and tackle and is either taken directly aboard from the water or, in the case of sawn lumber, taken over the wharf at Lower Bluff and loaded. The usual rates for loading are $1.25 per thousand feet when loaded from wharf and $1.50 per thousand feet when loaded from the water. wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 897 The only port officials at Darien are the pilots, and the only port charges are pilot's fees, which are as follows: Draft (feet Bar River Total Draft (feet Bar River Total and under). pilotage. pilotage. amount. and under). pilotage. pilotage. amount. 6------------- $10.76 $6.46 $17, 22 || 17............ $57. 34 $34.41 $91. 75 7------------- 13.06 7.83 20.89 || 17% : . . . . . . . . . . 61.02 36.72 97.74 8------------- 14.83 8. 89 23.72 || 18. . . . . . . . . . . . 64.05 38. 55 102.60 9------------- 16. 69 10. 01 - 26.70 || 18%. . . . . . . . . . . 67.17 40.34 107. 51 10------------ 21.08 12. 64 33.72 || 19.- ... . . . . . . . 71. 72 43. 04 114. 76 11------------ 25. 55 15. 33 40.88 || 19%. . . . . . . . . . . 74.96 44.99 119.95 12------------ 28.58 17. 14 45.72 || 20............ 78.30 46.98 125. 28 12%----------- 30.30 18. 18 48.48 || 20%. . . . . . . . . . . 82.81 49. 69 132.50 13------------ 31.84 19. 11 50.95 || 21............ 87.50 52.50 140.00 13%----------- 34.45 20.49 54.64 || 21%. . . . . . . . . . . 93.75 56.25 150.00 14------------ 38.91 23. 35 62.26 || 22. . . . . . . . . . . . 100.00 60.00 160.00 14%----------- 42.71 25.64 68.38 || 22} . . . . . . . . . . . 106.25 63. 75 170.00 15.----------- 45.08 27.04 72. 12 23............ 114.06 68.44 182.50 15%----------- 47. 17 28.30 75.47 || 233. ... --...-- 121. 88 73. 12 195.00 16------------ • 50.32 30. 19 80. 51 || 24............ 131.25 78. 75 210.00 16}----------- 54. 13 32.48 86.61 Detention of pilots per day.------------------------------------------------------------------------ $4.32 Drop----------... • - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 7.00 BRUNSWICK, GA. General description of the port.—Brunswick Harbor, Ga., is 71 miles by sea south of Savannah Harbor, Ga., and 24 miles by sea north of Fernandina Harbor, Fla. The harbor includes the improved channel across the bar, which marks its seaward limit, St. §. Sound, Brunswick River, which divides at the lower end of the city of Bruns- wick into Turtle River and East River, and Academy Creek, which xtends from the upper end of East River to the upper limits of the water-front development of the city. - The existing project for improvement provides for a channel 27 feet deep and 500 feet wide on the bar and for channels 24 feet deep and from 150 to 400 feet wide throughout the inner harbor, these channels to be maintained by dredging and a training wall at the confluence, of East River and Turtle River. All depths in this report are referred to mean low water, and the mean tidal range on the bar is 6.6 feet and at the city of Brunswick 7 feet. It is about 15 miles to the sea from the city of Brunswick and 19 miles from the Southern Railway export terminal, which marks the upper limit of terminal development. The city of Brunswick, which has an estimated population of 18,000, is situated on the east, or left, side of East River and Academy Creek. The tidal estuaries, Brunswick River, Terry Creek, and Back River, with their tributaries, define in general the southern and eastern limits of the city and its environs, thus placing Brunswick on a peninsula which is bordered on all sides except the north by tidal waters or swamps. With the exception of the Southern Railway export terminal, all important terminal and transfer facilities are located along the city front on the East River and Academy Creek Channels. The manufacturing interests of Brunswick are not of sufficient importance to greatly affect the character of its commerce, and for this reason most of the business of the port is through commerce 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—57 898 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. originating in the territory served by it destined to foreign countries and the eastern markets and manufacturing centers of the United States and vice versa. Brunswick is the nearest and most accessible port, with good terminal facilities, regular lines of steamers and adequate railway connections, serving the Altamaha and Satilla. River systems and a part of the inside waterway along the Georgia coast. The Altamaha and Satilla Rivers run through a portion of the interior of Georgia devoted to the growth of cotton and supplied with hardwood and pine forests, and are connected with Brunswick by the inside waterway. Lumber products, naval stores, and cotton originating in this territory and brought into Brunswick by both rail . water comprise an important part of the outbound shipments of the DOrt. Sºlies for the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive, show that 29 per cent of the business of the port of Brunswick was with foreign countries, practically all of the business being export, while 71 per cent of the business of the port was coastwise and local, of which 47 per cent was outbound and 24 per cent inbound. Table No. 1, which follows, gives the average outbound and inbound tonnage of foreign and coastwise business for the calendar years 1915 to 1917, inclusive: TABLE 1.-General character and extent of commerce.

The principal commodities entering and leaving the port coastwise were lumber and lumber products, naval stores, cotton and cotton products, groceries and canned goods, and general mer- chandise. large part of the lumber entering the port comes through local waterways in rafts of round and square timbers and about 60 per cent of the lumber and lumber products leaving the port coastwise is carried in sailing vessels and seagoing barges draw- ing 20 feet and less, this traffic comprising about 15 per cent of the total business of the port. The coastwise steamers entering and leaving the port are of about 2,000 tons capacity and have a draft of about 20 feet. The foreign steamers using the port range from 3,500 tons upward to 10,000 tons and the usual limits of draft are from 20 feet to 26 feet. Terminºl and transfer facilities in general.-The port of Brunswick has an improved water front of about 2% miles on the east side of the East River and Academy Creek channels, which mark the western boundary of the city. All of this terminal property lies near the tracks of the Atlantic Coast Line Railway, the Southern Railway, and the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railway, all of which inter- connect. The Southern and Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 899 Railways have belt lines which encircle the city, and the Atlantic Coast Line Railway has a marginal track along the Academy Creek and East River water front. The Southern Railway export terminal, occupying 2,000 feet of improved water front, is located on the east side of Turtle River about 4 miles above the city proper and a limited amount of shipping is carried on from small wharves serving indus- trial plants on Terry Creek and Back River which are not within the limits of Brunswick Harbor as defined by the existing project for improvement but are unimproved natural channels connecting with the inner harbor. There is a total of 3.1 miles of docking space at the wharves, piers, and dock in the port, 0.54 mile of which is owned by the Southern Railway (0.38 mile at the Turtle River ter- minal and 0.16 mile at the East River terminal), 0.54 mile by, the Atlantic Coast Line Railway, 1.1 miles by the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railway, and 0.9 mile by the city of Brunswick and pri- vate individuals or corporations. + Nearly all of the commerce of the port, passes through the railroad terminals owned by the Southern Railway, Atlantic Coast Line Rail- way, and the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railways, as the pri- vate terminals, with few exceptions, are suitable for and used only in connection with the particular industry which they serve, and there are no publicly owned terminals of any importance. Adequacy of terminals.-Practically all the commerce of the port of Brunswick passes through the four combined rail and water termi- nals and the private wharves known as F. D. Aiken's wharf, Down- ing's wharf, and the Altamaha Cypress Mills wharf on Back River. Statistics are not available as to the volume of business passing through the individual terminals but in general the Southern Railway export terminal on Turtle River, and the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railway terminal are used for foreign commerce exclusively, while all other terminal property is used for coastwise and local business. The average annual foreign commerce of the port for the past few years has been about 126,000 tons and the average annual local and coastwise commerce about 305,000 tons. The total available dock- ing space used for foreign commerce has been about 3,150 feet and the total available docking space used for coastwise business about 5,325 feet. The flow of commodities through terminals devoted to foreign business has, therefore, been at the rate of 40 tons per linear foot of docking space per annum and through terminals devoted to coastwise business at the rate of about 57 tons per linear foot of docking space per annum. Under normal prewar conditions the commerce of the port was a little over twice the present average annual commerce, but at that time certain terminal properties, which have since been allowed to deteriorate until unfit for use, were maintained, in good condition, so that the available docking and storage space of the port was materially increased. The annual flow of commodities through the port has probably at no time, been in excess of an aver ge of 100 tons per linear foot of docking space per annum, and berths for vessels are always available. The total storage space of the port is scarcely ever utilized except for short periods during heavy movement of cotton, and it is thought that, with an adequate supply of vessels to move cargo, the existing facilities are more than sufficient to care for existing commerce. The restoration of terminal facilities to their former condition or the 900 waTER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. development of new facilities to replace those formerly available at the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railway terminal, which have been allowed to deteriorate, both because of lack of business and excessive cost of maintenance due to their poor location, will provide terminals adequate to care for the normal business of the port and any increase which may be expected for several years. There is a considerable volume of local business between the port of Brunswick, points on the Altamaha, and Satilla River systems, and the inland waterway, between Darien and Fernandina, but there is no suitable terminal property available for the boats engaged in the business that is open to the public on equal terms. In order to allow free competition between water carriers engaged in this business and to encourage its growth, it is thought that the city of Brunswick should own and operate a municipal wharf at its unde- yeloped water front on East River, suitable for local boats, drawing between 3 and 10 feet and open to the public on equal terms. Port administration.--The port is under the control of the munici- F. and administrative authority is exercised through a dock and arbor master, three port wardens, and the “board of commissioners of pilotage of St. Simons and St. Andrews Bars, Turtle River, and the small bars and inlets north of and including the Great Satilla River.” All of these officials are elected by the mayor and aldermen of the city of Brunswick. The dock and harbor master is designated as special harbor policeman and the duties and authority of this position (which is not filled at the present time) are defined in sections 619 to 632 of the city code, the most important of which are as follows: 619. All pilots are requested to inform the masters of vessels of their duty to report to the dock and harbor master's office within 24 hours after arrival at the city. 622. No vessel shall be moved, after being placed at the wharf, without the permis- sion of the dock and harbor master. -623. No vessel, other than regular packets arriving in the city, shall be docked without the permission of the dock and harbor master. 627. Every steamer, ship, bark, brig, schooner or other vessel under 1,000 tons register requiring and using the services of the dock and harbor master in furnishing a dock, or in the settlement of disputes and disagreements between masters involving harbor regulations, shall pay to said dock and harbor master a fee of $5; and all such vessels of 1,000 tons and over shall pay said dock and harbor master a fee of $10 for such services. Each vessel involved in such dispute or disagreement shall be liable for its pro rata part of such fees. * For shifting, moving and redocking any steamer, ship, bark, brig, Schooner or other vessel, the dock and harbor master shall be paid the following fees: Wessels under 500 tons register . . . . . . . . . : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - $3 Wessels of from 500 tons to 1,000 tons register . . . . . . . . . . * - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 5 Vessels over 1,000 tons register. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ------------- 8 And any such vessel so shifted, moved or redocked shall be liable for the payment of the prescribed fees. - º e 632. The dock and harbor master shall be designated as special harbor policeman, and shalf be required to enforce the police regulations of this city and to wear the regulation police uniform, except that the cap worn by him shall be inscribed with the words “Dock and harbor master.” The duties and authority of the board of port wardens are defined in sections 246 to 258 of the city code, the most important of which are as follows: - - 250. At the request of any owner of a vessel, master, merchant, or consignee, it shall be the duty of said port wardens, or a majority of them, upon the arrival of any ship or vessel within the district of Brunswick, in distress, or which shall have received damage therein, or be in a leaky condition, or on board of which there may be goods, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 901 wares, or merchandise damaged, or supposed to be damaged, to examine and survey the said ship or vessel, in the hull, masts, spars, sails, rigging, and other appurtenances, and to report and certify the state thereof, and the repairs necessary to fit her for sea, so that she shall be fully seaworthy, noting particularly the damages which appear to have been sustained by the perils of the sea, and the probable expense of repair, dis- tinct from such as may have become necessary from negligence or ordinary decay. To this end they shall have access to the log book of such ship Cr vessel. -** 251. Also, when so required, they shall examine and survey the stowage of the cargo of any ship or vessel, and certify if the same be properly stowed and secured; and to examine and survey any such goods, wares and merchandise damaged or supposed to be damaged, report and certify if the same be damaged or not, the rate and degree of damage, etc., etc. In surveys of packages of merchandise, they shall designate par- ticularly the portion injured, and in no event shall they recommend a sale of the parts not damaged. 258.

If between the old city limits and Cedar Hammock, their fees will be 25 per cent additional upon the above rates. If below Cedar Pſammock and not below Clam Creek, 75 per cent additional upon the above rates, and if below Clam Creek, double the first-named rate. If the port wardens are required to furnish a boat and hands, $10 per day for such boat and hands shall be paid by them. In all cases when the port wardens shall be em- ployed more than one day in the performance of any duty herein required of them, they shall be entitled to similar fees for each and every day. The duties of the board of commissioners of pilotage are not de- fined by the city code but it is understood that they exercise general supervisory authority over the pilots for the port. The only port charges under municipal control in addition to those quoted from the city code for the harbor master and port wardens are the pilots’ fees, which are as follows: Bar of St. Simons and Turtle River and Bar of St. Andrews and Great Satilla River.

Wharfage, switching charges and storage charges at the railroad terminals are subject to the approval of the Interstate Commerce Commission. A schedule of these charges is given in Appendix A of this report. Public ownership and control of water front.—The city of Brunswick owns the foot of all streets terminating on the water front, all of which, except two, have been leased to individuals or corporations; 902 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 225 feet of unimproved water-front property on the East River Channel, and a large area of undevelored marshland having a front- age of over 2 miles on Terry Creek. The municipality has the power to acquire water-front property either by purchase or condemnation, and to construct and operate terminals, but the only improved property owned and controlled by the city consists of small boat landings at the foot of Gloucester and Monk Streets. The United States owns the property occupied by the quarantine station at Brunswick Point and a naval reservation of about 1,700 acres of land with an undeveloped frontage of about 2 miles on the west side of the Turtle River Channel. Public interest in and utilization of terminal and navigation facilities available.—The city of Brunswick has a well organized board of trade which takes an active interest in the improvement and use of the facilities of the port, and the South Atlantic Maritime Corpora- tion includes Brunswick among other ports in which it is interested for the purpose of coordinating and stimulating the business of the South Atlantic ports with the West Indies and South America. Approximately three-fourths of the tonnage passing through the port is carried in vessels drawing 22 feet or less and one-fourth in vessels drawing 22 to 28 feet. A great many of the port terminals have been allowed to deteriorate in the past three or four years due to the condi- tions brought on by the war which have caused a decrease of about 50 per cent in the annual commerce, but if the business of the port demands, these terminals can be restored to their former efficiency. There is under construction at the present time an oil refinery, which, according to the statements of its officers will have a capacity of 4,000 barrels daily. The officials of the company state that this lant will be in operation during the year 1919 and that at least one 11,000-ton oil tank steamer of 29 feet loaded draft will run between Mexican ports and Brunswick. It is anticipated that this vessel will male about 20 round trips per year. It is also stated that this com- bany intends to construct a wharf at its property on the left side of Turtle River just above the Southern Railway terminals, which will have pipe lines to storage tanks ashore, and that there will be pile lines at this wharf for furnishing fuel oil to oil-burning vessels. Existing rail and water connections.—The port of Brunswick is served by three trunk lines and one local railroad, viz, the Southern Railway which runs from Brunswick west to the Mississippi, and owns and operates one rail and water terminal at Brunswick and leases another to the Clyde Steamship Co.; the Atlantic Coast Line Railway which runs to Montgomery, Ala., and owns and operates a combined rail and water terminal at Brunswick ; the Atlanta, Bir– mingham & Atlantic Railway which runs to Birmingham, Ala., and owns and operates a combined rail and water terminal at Brunswick, and the Georgia Coast & Piedmont Railway which runs to Collins, Ga., and owns extensive water-front property at Brunswick, all of which is, however, leased to other individuals or corporations. The Clyde Steamship Co. operates steamers between Brunswick and New York on regular schedules, and uses a combined rail and water terminal leased from the Southern Railway. There are intermittent sailings of vessels to the United Kingdom and the Continent of Europe by the Strachan Line, Leyland Line, Harrison Line, Creole Line, and the International Mercantile Marine, as well as occasional WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 903 sailings of sailing vessels and barges, coastwise and foreign. Local steamships and small boats operate between Brunswick, St. Simons Island, J’arien, Ga., Fernandina, Fla., and points on the Altamaha and Satilla rivers and the inside waterway. General efficiency of the port.—The main portion of the city of Brunswick is surrounded by belt line railroads, which parallel the Academy Creek and East River water front at the rear of wharf property, one or all of these lines serving all developed water-front property in the port. These belt tracks are used to a great extent by all four railroads entering Brunswick and there is a joint operating agreement between the Atlantic Coast Line and the Southern Rail- way. The Atlantic Coast Line marginal track serves most of the water-front property along Academy Creek and East River to the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic terminal and this track is connected to the Southern and Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic tracks, which rºl it by cross-overs. The Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic ailway serves its terminal property at the southeastern side of the city and the industrial plants along Terry Creek and Back River, and the Southern Railway serves its two terminal properties, one on East River and one on Turtle River. As a result of the complete interconnection between rail carriers and the fact that all water terminals have rail connections, a very small portion of the commodi- ties passing through the port is handled on lighters. Naval stores and lumber products are sometimes lightered. from one terminal or wharf to another where a vessel is loading and the vessel loaded from the wharf and lighter at the same time, but in general cargo is assembled or unloaded in the transit shed or on the wharf where a vessel docks. Special handling machinery is provided at the Southern Railway Turtle River terminal for the unloading of fertilizer salts, but this is §e only mechanical installation for handling cargo at the port. In general, vessels are loaded or unloaded by hand trucks through large side ports or with ship derricks and winches. Coaling.—Brunswick has practically no facilities for supplying bunker coal. There is one coal yard which has a capacity of approxi- mately 1,000 tons in its yard and which supplies local boats with bunker coal. There are at present no fuel oil facilities at the port, but the South Atlantic Refining Co. is erecting an oil refinery and officials of this company state that it is the intention to provide adequate facilities for furnishing vessels with fuel oil. Repair.—There are no exclusive ship repair plants at the port, but there are two ship yards with well equipped machine shops, woodworking machinery, and with fitting out wharves equipped with mechanical handling devices. At one of these yards there is a marine railway with a maximum capacity for vessels 175 feet long and of 900 tons displacement, and this yard also has a foundry equipped for making heavy castings. Storage facilities.—About 85 per cent of the available storage space of the port, used in connection with port terminal facilities, is con- centrated at the four combined rail, and water terminals and prac- tically all of this space is located immediately adjacent to both rail and water. The table which follows gives the storage space in square feet available for use in connection with the port terminals: 904 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

This installation, which can unload 80 tons of fertilizer salts per hour, is described in detail in the description of the terminal of which it forms a part. The handling of all other com- modities between point of storage or cars and vessel is accomplished by means of hand trucks, lighters, and ship gear and tackle. At the terminals devoted to foreign business cargo is carried to ship side by hand trucks and loaded into the vessels through hatches in the main deck by ship derricks operated by ship winches. The commercial methods involved in the sale of cotton, naval stores, and lumber, which comprise nearly all of the foreign business of the port and a large part of the coastwise, usually necessitate the storing of these commodities at the port for varying periods of time previous to shipment. Because of this the available storage area must be greater than at ports where there is a more rapid flow of commodi- ties through the terminals, and freight must be transported through comparatively long distances in order to place it at ship side. The volume of business passing through the port in comparison with the facilities available has not been sufficient for the past few years to necessitate the utilization of all storage areas available, and as a result only those areas most conveniently located to ships' berths have been used, and it has been possible in most cases to assemble freight by hand methods about as fast as it could be loaded on ships. If, however, the business of the port returns to its normal volume, necessitating the use of all available storage areas, the length of haul from point of storage to ship side will be materially increased, and it will no doubt prove economical and advisable to use electric trucks or other mechanical methods for assembling cargo in order to expe- dite the dispatch of vessels. The commodities carried in coastwise steamers include, in addition to those carried in the foreign trade, a considerable amount of mis- cellaneous package freight. The warehouses and other storage areas at the terminal for coastwise steamers are used as transit areas for this package freight rather than storage areas for the commodities requiring a long period of storage, and cargo is assembled at points near vessel berths, with a comparatively short haul to ship side. Naval stores, cotton, and lumber are generally brought to coastwise .WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 905 steamers by lighter, thus enabling the vessel to load on both sides simultaneously and allowing rapid loading and quick dispatch. The coastwise steamers at present using the port have large side ports through which cargo can be wheeled on trucks from wharves or lighters into the vessels and are also equipped with derricks operated by steam winches, which haul cargo over inclined gangways or hoist it to the main hatches and lower it into the hold. Under normal prewar conditions a large portion of the coastwise outgoing tonnage was composed of crossties and lumber shipped in sailing vessels and seagoing barges. The Atlantic Coast Line Rail- way terminal is largely devoted to this class of business, and the method of loading is to truck cargo by hand within reach of ship derricks operated by steam winches, and place rope slings around a bundle of crossties or lumber, and hoist aboard the vessel by ship gear and tackle. It is thought that the use of power-operated cable- ways spanning areas of storage or movable gantry cranes, or a com- bination of the two, would prove economical for handling these com- modities from point of storage to ship side and loading in ships, and would permit of a more rapid diº of vessels. The Southern Railway export terminal is on the left or eastern side of Turtle River about 5 miles by the navigable channel above and north of the city of Brunswick. This terminal, which is locally known as the Turtle River Docks, or New Docks, marks the extreme upper limit of the harbor as defined by the existing project for improvement and is located in a bight of Turtle River which has a natural depth at this point of from 33 to 38 feet. The terminal includes a wharf, of creosoted piling with a wooden deck, which has a frontage of 1,950 feet with depths of from 19 to 27 feet alongside, five wooden warehouses, and three large wooden sheds. The sheds and one warehouse are devoted almost exclusively to the handling of cotton, and one warehouse is designed and used entirely for the handling and storage of fertilizer salts and similar bulk commodities. This warehouse, 101 feet wide, 301 feet long, and about 50 feet high from floor to ridge of roof has a storage capacity of 20,000 tons of fertilizer salts and is of wood covered with corrugated metal sheeting and rests on reinforced concrete foundations. Two wooden towers 85 feet high run on steel rails on the wharf in front of the warehouse and parallel to the water front and bulk material is raised from the holds of vessels by means of buckets of 3,000 pounds capacity operating from a cantilever arm carried by the towers. These buckets discharge into hoppers at the top of the towers and these hoppers in turn discharge into electric cars of 5,000 pounds capacity, which receive their power from a third rail and run on elevated tracks back of the tracks carrying the towers and parallel thereto and into the warehouse over lateral tracks. In passing into the warehouse these cars are automatically weighed and are dis- charged, while in motion by an automatic tripping device which places the material in such storage bins as may be desired. This plant can unload and place in the warehouse 80 tons of bulk cargo per hour. All of the warehouses and sheds are interconnected b wooden platforms, truckways, and spur tracks which connect wº the Southern Railway main line at Dock Junction, a point about 2 miles north of the city of Brunswick, and this line has physical connection with all lines entering Brunswick. Electric power is 906 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. supplied by a plant at the terminal and all of the wharf, buildings, and sheds are in good condition, and the entire property supplied with adequate fire protection. This terminal is open to the public on equal terms, except for portions leased to individuals or corpora- tions. As all the commodities passing through this terminal are exports to or imports from foreign countries, there are no prorating agreements between rail and water carriers, although through bills of lading are issued for the convenience of consignees who must make their own arrangements for payment of ocean freight. The Southern Railway Mansfield Street Terminal is a wooden wharf in the heart of the business district of the city of Brunswick near the foot of Mansfield Street. This wharf is on the East River 24-foot project channel and has a frontage of 896 feet. It has wooden pile foundations and a wooden deck and a large shed and three one-story warehouses, all of wood, served by standard gage spurs which connect with the Southern main line and interconnected by wooden platforms and runways and all adjacent to city streets, There are no mechanical handling devices, all cargo being loaded or unloaded by means of hand trucks and ship derricks and winches. This terminal is in good condition. It is leased to the Clyde Steam- ship Co. and is used by this company exclusively, with the excep- tion that certain local steamships have leased berthing privileges. It is used exclusively for local and coastwise traffic. Through bills of lading are issued and charges based on prorating agreement regulated by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railway terminal is located at the lower end of the East River, 24-foot project channel at the southern end of the city of Brunswick. This terminal consists of a dock 250 feet wide formed by a wharf 1,200 feet long, covered with a wooden shed (150 by 600 feet) on one side and a reinforced con- crete bulkhead across the shore end and extending for 1,700 feet on the side opposite the wharf; three piers and four 1-story wooden warehouses. At the rear of and immediately adjacent to the dock and piers there is approximately 2,178,000 square feet of well drained ground available for storage. The wharf and piers at this terminal have reinforced concrete pile foundations and wooden decks. All of the storage area, piers, sheds, and warehouses are served by standard gage spur tracks connecting with the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic main line which has physical connection with all rail- roads entering Brunswick, and this terminal has adequate connec- tion with city streets by means of improved roads. The various warehouses, piers, and sheds are interconnected by wooden plat- forms, runways, and spur tracks. There are no mechanical appli- ances for handling cargo at this terminal, all cargo being handled by hand trucks and ship gear and tackle. One of the piers forming a part of the terminal has an elevated deck reached by a long ap- proach trestle of slight grade and it was intended to use this pier as a coal pier by pushing bottom dump cars, up the trestle to the elevated deck of the pier and then dumping these cars into hoppers which would in turn discharge into the hold of vessels through chutes. This scheme has never proven successful and the pier is now unsafe for use and has no water alongside, due to accumulated shoaling which has never been removed by dredging. The other two piers forming part of this terminal have also been allowed to WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 907 deteriorate until they are unfit for use. The concrete pile founda- tions are in good condition but the decks are practically destroyed . and the water around these piers has shoaled to such an extent that vessels can not dock. The only portion of the terminal which is usable at the present time is that part surrounding the dock. At this point there is a total available docking space of 3,270 feet with depths of from 13 to 19 feet alongside. The terminal has adequate fire protection and operates its own electric plant. It is open to the public on equal terms, except for such portions as are leased to individuals or corporations, and is used at the present time for foreign business only. Through bills of lading are issued for the convenience of consignees, but there are no prorating agreements between rail and water carriers and rail and ocean freights are paid separately. The maintenance of this terminal has been expensive due to the shoaling around the piers and in the dock, and dredging must fre- quently be resorted to in order to maintain navigable depths. The terminal is very poorly located for one requiring deep warer, as it is at the mouth of East River where it widens out with a consequent diminution of velocity of tidal current and deposit of material car- ried in suspension. This condition is further aggravated by the piers which act as spur dams, thus further retarding the velocity of the tidal current in their immediate vicinity and causing a rapid deposit of material around them. When the business of the port returns to normal and there is a demand for increased terminal facilities it will probably be found economical to develop new facili- ties at a more favorable location. The Atlantic Coast Line terminal consists of wooden wharves, with wooden pile foundations, having a frontage of 2,897 feet along the East River and Academy Creek 24-foot project channels. There are no sheds or warehouses at this terminal, which is used chiefly for handling lumber, crossties, and lumber products, and there are no mechanical appliances for handling cargo. Back of the wharves is an extensive area used for storage, which has roads connecting with city streets, and the wharves and this area are served by numer- ous standard gauge spur tracks connecting with the Atlantic Coast Line main line, which has physical connection with all railroads entering Brunswick. The greater portion of this terminal property is usuall leased to various forwarding agents, but a portion is controlled by the Atlantic Coast Line Railway and is open to the public on equal terms regulated by the Interstate Commerce Commission. There are no prorating agreements on commodities passing through this terminal, although through bills of lading are issued when desired and payment of rail and water freight made separately. In addition to the railroad terminals the F. D. Aiken wharf and the Downing Co. wharf are suitable as berths for seagoing vessels. The Aiken wharf has a frontage of 623 feet on the Academy Creek 24-foot project channel and marks the upper limit of improvement on the water front. This wharf, which is of wooden construction throughout, is devoted to the handling of crossties and has spur-line connection with the Atlantic Coast Line Railway. There are no storehouses, sheds, or mechanical handling devices at the wharf and no highway connection. The Downing wharf is located on the East River 24-foot project channel near the center of the business district 908 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. of Brunswick, and is devoted to the handling of naval stores. It has a frontage of 586 feet, with depths of 14 to 24 feet alongside, and has a warehouse 180 feet long and 125 feet wide. This property has º connection with the Atlantic Coast Line Railway and lies at the foot of two city streets. They are no mechanical handling devices, all cargo being rolled from the warehouse and along the wharf, where it is placed on lighters and taken to vessels berthed at other terminals, or placed alongside vessels berthed at this wharf and loaded by ship's gear and tackle. Both the Downing and Aiken wharves are pri- vately owned and used for the business of the owners exclusively. The water of Brunswick Harbor is salt and comparatively free from sediment, and as a consequence marine borers are present in great numbers and are very active during the summer months. Terminals with substructures of wood are soon badly damaged by these borers, and the most satisfactory materials for foundations are reinforced concrete or heavily creosoted wood piling. Owing to the fact that untreated wooden piling has been easily and cheaply procured, most of the terminal property at Brunswick hº been built with untreated pine pile foundations. The terminals of the Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railway are typical of those with reinforced concrete pile foundations, and well adapted to the various physical characteristics of the port except as previously stated. The Southern Railway export terminal, with creosoted pile foundations, is also well adapted to the various physical characteristics of the port. Both of these terminals are well suited, too, for handling any of the miscellaneous package freight passing through the port, and the mechanical appara- tus at the Southern Railway export terminal for handling fertilizer materials is well suited for this particular class of traffic. The Atlantic Coast Line Railway terminal is well suited for the accom- modation of the lumber business of the port. APPENDIX A. PORT CHARGES AT BRUNSWICK, GA. TOWAGE.

JACKSON VILLE TO THE OCEAN, AND OPPOSITE THE CITY OF JACKSON VILLE. This stretch of the river is in the eastern part of the northern por- tion of the State of Florida, and is the most southerly deep waterway On Our Atlantic seaboard. Its width varies from 1,600 feet between the jetties, at the entrance, to 10,000 feet (shallow over a large por- tion) at and above Dames Point (15 miles from the entrance) and to 1,300 feet between the pierhead lines at Jacksonville (28 miles from the entrance), the head of the deep-water improvement. Ample anchorage space is available at Mayport (4 miles from the entrance) for depths to 27 feet, along the river for depths to 24 feet, and in the vicinity of Jacksonville for depths up to 30 feet. The projects for improvement provide for a depth of 30 feet at mean low water, with widths of channel varying from 300 to 600 feet between Jacksonville and the ocean, and for a depth of 24 feet at mean low water between the channel and the pierhead line oppo- site the city of Jacksonville, between Hogans Creek and the Florida East Coast Railroad bridge, and for anchorage space at Mayport. º mean range of tide at Mayport is 5.2 #. and at Jacksonville 9 inches. The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted of miscellaneous bulk and package cargoes; the tonnage amounted to 1,712,253 short tons, valued at $87,674,155. Of this total, 9 per cent, valued at $934,280, was foreign; 80 per cent, valued at $83,907,448, was coast- wise; and 11 per cent, valued at $2,832,427, was local. About 9.3 per cent of the tonnage was carried in steam and sailing vessels drawing 21 to 26 feet, 73.8 per cent in steamers and barges drawing 10 to 19 feet, 16.9 per cent in steamers and motor boats drawing 3 to 9 feet, and on lighters and rafts towed by motor boats and steamers drawing 3 to 9 feet. The city of Jacksonville, at the head of these improvements, is a commercial center and the gateway to Florida, as . to a territory extending into Southwest Georgia and southeast Alabama and an out- let for these territories and for Tennessee and the western markets. The principal terminals are located at and near the city of Jack- sonville on both sides of the river, extending from Trout Creek, 2% miles down the river from the city limits, to the Florida East Coast Railroad bridge, in the city limits, a distance of about 7 miles. On © * 935 936 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the left bank of the river (Jacksonville side), the wharves and piers are in a fairly unbroken line and are used for handling phosphate rock, gasoline, and oils, creosoted piles and timbers, lumber, general cargoes, meat packers’ products, building material, fertilizers, ship- building, repair and outfitting commodities, naval stores products, coal, groceries, miscellaneous storage, freight of all kinds for regular lines of steamers, fish, cotton, machine shop and foundry industries, etc. On the right bank of the river the wharves and piers (widely separated compared to left bank) are used for handling oils, ship- building, repair and outfitting commodities, fertilizers and fertilizer ingredients, railroad transfer for general freight, etc. In all, there is a length of 5% to 6 miles of wharf and pier space available at and near Jacksonville, within the limits stated, with depths of water at the wharves and piers varying from 6 to 30 feet. Other terminals are as follows: One at Cedar Creek (17% miles from the entrance) with depths of 20 to 24 feet of water at it, for handling the products of an extensive sawmill plant; one each at Fulton and Mayport (9 and 4 miles, respectively, from the entrance) with depths of 15 and 20 feet, respectively, for handling the products of fish fer- tilizer factories. Other wharves, generally marginal, with 40 to 50 feet frontage, and in no sense important terminals, are located along the river for han- dling purely local business and mail. With few exceptions, the wharves and piers are of the open, wood- pile (creosoted or untreated) substructure with square timber super- structure. The warehouses are constructed of structural steel or of squared lumber framing with metal sides and metal or composition pebble roofs. Many of the terminals are adequate to the requirements of handling some special commodity, with mechanical appliances for rapidly loading and unloading that commodity, but for handling, storing, loading, and unloading general commerce by mechanical appliances there are no terminals adequate to the present or prospective demands of the commerce of the port except, possibly, the terminals of the regular lines of coastwise steamers. It is stated, however, that the . owners of the Commodore Point terminals and the lessees of space there and the managers of the municipal terminals contemplate installing mechanical appliances for rapid handling of commerce as Soon as the commodities to be handled are determined. Investiga- tions are also being made as to storage of freight in such manner as to permit the rapid loading and unloading of vessels. Administration of the port.—The administration of the port is vested in a harbor master, who is appointed by the governor of the State. The duties of the harbor master are prescribed by State laws. Port charges.—There are no harbor master or other fees collected unless actual service is rendered. There are no wharfage charges to vessels using the wharves or piers. H. Doc. 652, 65-2.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 939 The privately owned terminals and transfer facilities are open to the public only after some special agreement or contract with the owners, the charge being based on current conditions. The terminals and transfer facilities owned by the municipality of Jacksonville are open to the public on equal terms, irrespective of the routing of the commodity to be stored or transferred. The several railroads entering the city deliver to the municipally owned railroad, for delivery to the terminals on Tallyrand Avenue, such freight as is consigned to them, and the municipal railroad delivers to the several railroads the freight which has been water borne to and has passed over the municipal terminals on Tallyrand Avenue. Freight to and from the municipally owned Market Street Pier and warehouse is direct to the terminal railroad line. The charges for wharfage, storage, and handling at these terminals are stated in tariffs issued by the city commission, who control and operate the terminals. Ownership of water front.—The ownership of the water front is divided between individuals, the municipality of Jacksonville, and private and public corporations, none of them owning or controlling any very considerable proportion that is not needed for the business engaged in. Local cooperation.—Under the project for improvement by the Federal Government, no local cooperation is required by the appro- priation act, but general interest has been such that during 1892– 1894 Duval County, in which this stretch of river is located, expended $303,206.25 on improvements, by building training walls and shore protection and dredging through 10 miles of channel; and in 1913 the city of Jacksonville was bonded for $1,500,000 for the purpose of raising funds with which to construct terminals. The terminals are now completed and have begun to render service. It is believed the city and county governments will keep pace with the Federal Government in making any improvements that may be demanded by commerce, thus giving the cooperation desired by the Federal Government. - Transfer facilities.—The port is well provided with rail communi- cations. Five trunk lines, having a total mileage of 16,137 miles and traversing 13 States, enter Jacksonville. Each line owns its terminals and has physical connection, by its own line or by arrange- ments with other ſines, with all other terminals at the port except a few. In addition to the trunk lines entering the city of Jackson- ville, there is a terminal line operating rail and water front terminals. The tracks of this terminal company parallel the water front from Catherine to Main Streets, a distance of 2,400 feet. All of the trans- portation lines entering the city and the terminal line in the city have several transfer points for interchange of traffic, and but for a distance of 945 feet, between Main and Hogan Streets, and a few other gaps, there would be a belt line formed by the different rail- roads encircling the water front from Trout Creek to the Florida East Coast Railroad bridge. The construction of the 945 feet of line would appear desirable, and the expense of its construction warranted by the saving of time and distances traveled. In addition to the transfer by railroads, there is a large lighterage transfer business at this port. The steamship lines, sawmill, and fertilizer interests own their own lighters, housed and open, and a 940 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. transfer company owning steamers, motor boats, and lighters com- bines the lighterage transfer with towing business. Efficiency of the port.—The efficiency of the port as a whole is ade- quate to the demands of the present commerce. There are now four companies, equipped with stationary or floating derricks, handling coal in sufficient quantities to enable them to bunker vessels on a small scale, and agencies of five of the principal corporations handling fuel oil, which can be supplied in any quantity desired; there are three large and numerous small machine shops and two large and several small foundries of sufficient capacities to handle and make needed repairs to machinery; there is a floating dock capable of accommodat- ing vessels up to 4,500 tons, a marine railway capable of accommo- dating vessels up to 80 tons, and numerous lifts capable of accommo- dating the smaller vessels in making repairs to hulls and parts under . and cranes of 100 tons capacity for handling heavy or bulky articles. The owners of the terminals at this port are apparently keenly aware of the necessity of meeting the desires of the Government, and are keeping pace with it in some degree by improving their terminals while the channel is being improved by the United States. Apparently there is not the coordination of rail and water interests that would best serve the interests of the port as a whole and that could be obtained, if there was a terminal of sufficient size, with sufficient depth of water, and equipped with mechanical appliances for rapid handling of freight of a general character, jointly operated. Needs of the port.—The types of wharves and piers appear to be suited to the conditions and will, no doubt, be used for some years to come, due to cheapness of construction. The present facilities are considered adequate to the needs of the present commerce, but for prospective commerce the depths of water at the piers or wharves and in the channels leading to the piers and wharves from the river channel should be increased, mechanical appliances for rapid han- dling of freight should be installed, and arrangements made for storing freight in such way as to permit rapid handling and the avoidance of too frequent moving of ships. - The short gaps in the railroads between Trout Creek and the Florida East Coast Railroad bridge should be built in order to make a continuous line along the water front and give all water terminals º: connection with all railroads and thus avoid needless shifting OI C 81°S. - This line should be owned by the city of Jacksonville, or, if not owned by the city, should be operated as one system and not by the several railroads. MUNICIPAL DOCKS AND TERMINALS, JACKSON VILLE, FLA. Area.—The terminal site acquired by the port commissioners by purchase comprises 144 acres adjoining each side of Talleyrand Avenue, a hard-surfaced highway, 3.7 miles from the city hall. Of this total acreage, there has been reclaimed and made solid and available 80 acres of land by filling in, behind interlocking sheet steel bulkhead, with sand dredged from the slips between the piers and along the frontage of the bulkhead. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 941 |Water frontage.—The frontage on the St. Johns River on bulkheads and piers covers 1 mile. The depth of water along this frontage is 30 feet, accommodating any vessel which can navigate the channel from the bar to the docks. - Piers.--Two piers are completed and ready for business. Pier No. 1 is what is known as an open pier and is constructed for the handling of lumber, ties, rosin, and turpentine, and other commodities not injured by the weather. It is constructed of interlocking sheet steel bulkheading, extending from the bulkhead line a distance of 1,000 feet, with a width of 260 feet. Ample loading and unloading platforms, 30 feet wide, floored with heart cypress, extend beyond the steel walls of the pier on its three sides, equipped with the neces- sary number of hawser bitts. The main floor of the pier is paved with vitrified brick set in cement. Two railroad tracks run the length of the pier and connect with the terminal railroad system. A 6-inch water main circuits the pier, with nine fire plugs for fire protection, all connected with the terminal water works described elsewhere. Seven average-sized freight steamers can load at one time at this pier. - Pier No. 2 is constructed on same lines as Pier No. 1 and is 1,000 feet in length by 260 feet in width, and will also accommodate seven average-sized freight steamers at one time. On this pier there has been constructed two warehouses, 73 feet wide by 800 feet long, built of of structural steel, covered on sides and roof with heavy galvanized corrugated iron sheets. Each warehouse has 13 openings on each side and one on each end leading from the railroad tracks between the warehouses to the interior and from the interior to the loading platforms, 30 feet wide, at ship's side, which openings are closed by Wilson rolling steel shutters. The height from the floor to the eaves is 26 feet. The warehouses are amply ventilated. These warehouses are supplied with three railroad tracks leading from the terminal railroad system. The floors of the warehouses are paved with vitrified brick set in cement, upon which smooth, hard surface the heaviest freight can be easily handled. Fire protection is afforded by eight fire plugs, connected with the water-works system by 6-inch mains. Depth of water at this pier is 30 feet. To meet the requirements of increased commerce, additional piers of like dimensions to those described will be constructed on the adjoining dock frontage as the occasion demands. Terminal railroad.—At this time over 7 miles of tracks have been laid in the terminal yards and on the piers. These tracks lead over a 100-foot wide right of way, to the Springfield section of the city, where connection is made with all lines entering the city, thus making physical connection of all lines with the terminals and docks. These tracks are operated by the port commission, which at present owns one Baldwin switch engine, 19 by 26 inches, weighing with its tender 195,000 pounds. The commission has also purchased a number of box and flat cars, and additional locomotives and equipment will be urchased from time to time to take care of all business offering. ailroad track scales, with a capacity of 150 tons are located near the cotton warehouses. • Cotton warehouses and compresses.—An absolutely fireproof cotton warehouse has been constructed of reinforced concrete. This ware- house is divided into four storage compartments separated by auto- matic fire doors, and the capacity is ample to take care of present 942 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. needs and will be enlarged as the occasion demands. Under the same roof, but in separate compartments, are located machine and boiler shops, enº house, and compress room. Oil is used for fuel in the boilers. In the compress room are installed two cotton compresses, one a Morse press of the usual dimensions and capacity, and the other a “Standard” low-density, 450-ton press. The entire building is fully equipped for fire protection, having an overhead automatic sprinkler system with six fire plugs outside connected with the ter- minal waterworks system, concrete fire-hose boxes each containing 200 feet of rubber-lined hose. Every facility for the quick handling of cotton from cars to compress and from compress to storage or ships is afforded. The docks and terminals are lighted by electricity, the current being obtained from the municipal electric light plant, which is adjacent to the docks. ~ - Waterworks system.—Water is obtained from a flowing artesian well, having a depth of 670 feet and a daily flow of 2,400,000 gallons. This well is connected with a concrete storage basin with a capacity of 100,000 gallons. There is also a tank reservoir, elevated 100 feet, with a capacity of 50,000 gallons. The pump house is built of rein- forced concrete and contains two 1,000-gallon pumps, one driven by a 100-horsepower gasoline engine and the other by a 100-horsepower electric engine. The pressure at the hose nozzles is 125 pounds. Insurance rates.—On account of the splendid fire protection afforded very low rates of insurance are in effect. Insurance of cotton ranges from 17% cents per $100 to 22% cents, according to height stored. Low compress charges.—The port commission has fixed the rates of cotton compression considerably lower than those in effect at most of the interior cotton territory. The charge for compression on the Morse press, which compresses to a density of 20 pounds to the cubic foot, is 30 cents per bale, while the charge for the same service on the “Standard” low-density press, which compresses to an average density of 33 pounds to the cubic foot, is 50 cents. . Storage, wharfage, and handling rates.—Effective September 1, 1916, the port commissioners issued their Tariff No. 1, showing most rea- sonable rates for storage, wharfage, and handling, in all cases equal to, and in some cases superior to, the rates in effect at other South Atlantic coast points. Copies of these tariffs, rules, and regulations will be furnished on request by the general manager. Negotiable warehouse receipts.-For the convenience of the patrons of the cotton and other storage warehouses the Board of Port Com- missioners issue negotiable warehouse receipts for all goods stored with them. The warehouse receipts for cotton, lumber, ties, naval stores, and other commodities shows the name of owner as well as the number of packages, grades, weights, etc. The receipts are signed on behalf of the municipality by its Board of Port Commis- sioners, general manager, and warehousemen, who are under bond, thus placing the city of Jacksonville behind these receipts, making the best kind of collateral security for loans, the goods being insured by the owner. - City pier and warehouse.—For the convenience of shippers and re- ceivers of freight desiring deliveries in the heart of the city, the port commission has acquired by lease with option of purchase from the St. Johns River Terminal Co., a conveniently located frontage on the river between Newnan and Market Streets, adjoining the Clyde * WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 943 Steamship Co.'s terminals. The warehouse on this pier will be 400 feet by 75 feet, with a height from the floor to eaves of 16 feet. Where this warehouse adjoins the land, the building is two stories in height, and the second floor will be used for the offices of the port commission and the general manager and his staff. Freights will be handled between the main docks and terminals, and this city pier and warehouse by the Terminal Railroad and the St. Johns River Terminal Co., and by means of tugs and lighters on the river front. Clyde Steamship Co.'s Terminals.--The terminals are located close to the business section of the city of Jacksonville, between Market and Washington Streets, and in the narrowest part of the river. Creosoted piling and timbers were used respectively in the sub and super structures of the piers, and steel structural framing with gal- vanized iron sheets for siding and a gravel composition for roofing in the construction of the warehouses. There are three piers, 100, 150 and 110 feet wide by 443 feet long. Each pier has a railroad track or tracks on it, and they are near enough together to give good berthing space and to permit of the hauling of a ship from the pier on which its cargo was unloaded to the pier on the other side of the slip for loading its waiting cargo. Load- ing and unloading are also done from lighters at the same time the vessel is being unloaded or loaded at the pier. Draying and trucking are done from the front or street side of the warehouses. At these terminals there is berthing space of about 3,000 feet and warehouse floor area of 146,560 square feet. Commodores Point Terminal.—The development of the properties of the Commodores Point Terminal Co. was begun in September, 1915. The project involved the construction of one mile of bulkhead and the reclaiming of 135 acres of land. The bulkhead is constructed of steel sheet piling faced with reinforced concrete. The depth of water at the bulkhead is generally about 24 feet at mean low water. The location is about 1% miles from the business center of the city. Railway tracks on the property form a connecting link between the terminal tracks of the Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line Railway companies. The future development of the property provides for: - 1. For a storage and export terminal for turpentine and rosin (already constructed and in operation). 2. A large storage and shipping terminal for the handling of lum- ber and other timber products. 3. A wharf house with 2,500 feet of waterfront. - h 4. A system of storage warehouses directly connected to the wharf OUIS6. 5. Adequate railroad yards for the efficient handling of inbound and outbound freight. JACKSON VILLE TO PALATE.A. Palatka is about 55 miles from Jacksonville and 83 miles from the entrance. The river varies in width from 1 to 3 miles, and may be considered a narrow lake. The project for improvement provides for a channel 200 feet wide and 13 feet deep at mean low water, to be secured by dredging through four shoals. - 944 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. s The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted mostly of automobiles, brick, canned goods, cement, coal, feed, fertilizer, fish, flour, fresh meats, fruits, grain, groceries, hardware, hay, ice, live stock, logs, lumber, naval stores, packing-house products, potatoes, sugar, vegetables, wood, and general merchandise. The tonnage amounted to 174,609 short tons, valued at $3,772,387. About 50.3 per cent of the total commerce was composed of logs in rafts, towed by motor boats and steamers drawing from 3 to 5 feet. About 47.7 per cent was carried in steamers and motor boats and on lighters drawing from 3% to 9 feet. The remaining 2 per cent consisted of lumbershipments carried in schooners drawing 12 feet. Between these points there are no terminals, but each town or settlement has its transfer wharf. The wharves are, generally, open to the public upon the payment of wharfage and storage charges to the owners or lessees of them, and they are maintained by their owners, by the owners of boats running regular schedules and by public subscription. The wharves extend into the river to a depth of about 8 to 10 feet of water; on all of the wharves or on the shore nearby are warehouses and waiting rooms. - Green Cove Springs is the terminus of the Independent Line of steamers. This line of steamers interchanges traffic at Jacksonville with the railroads and the established steamship lines there in accordance with tariffs filed with the Interstate Commerce Com- mission. At Palatka, in addition to the wharves described in the accom- panying detailed sheets, there are wharves of the Wilson Cypress Co. and Tiglman Bros., which are used exclusively by them for storing and preparing for shipment the products of their extensive sawmill properties. * - No publicly-owned water terminals are necessary, as the present facilities are deemed adequate to the existing and prospective needs of commerce. - - PALATKA TO LAKE HARNEY. Between Palatka and Lake Harney the river passes through six lakes, the largest of which are Lake George and Lake Monroe, 12 miles long by 6 miles wide and 4% miles long by 3% miles wide, re- spectively. Other widths vary from 130 to 2,500 feet. Some por- tions of this stretch, besides being narrow, are tortuous. The project for improvement provides for a channel 8 feet deep at mean low water and 100 feet wide from Palatka to Sanford, 89 miles from Palatka and 172 miles from the entrance, and 5 feet deep at mean low water and 100 feet wide from Sanford to Lake Harney, 23 miles from Sanford and 195 miles from the entrance. * The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted of cement, citrus fruits, coal, cottonseed meal, crate material, fertilizer, grain and hay, groceries, ice, logs, lumber, naval stores, vegetables, and general merchandise, amounting to 108,269 short tons, valued at $1,398,809. The commerce was carried in gasoline launches drawing from 2 to 5 feet and in steamers drawing 4 to 7 feet. On this stretch of the river there are numerous private landings, generally marginal wharves, at which boats stop for fruit, lumber, vegetables, fish, etc. No charge is made for boats stopping at these landings, and boats have no occasion to use them except when they WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 945 stop for freight or passengers for owners' convenience. These land- ings are in no sense terminals, as they do not serve towns, but are used by individuals. The Clyde Steamship Co., which serves this territory by operating a regular line of boats to Sanford, owns wharves at De Land Landing and at Sanford and rents wharves at other towns where necessary. The boats of this company stop at all wharves, whether their own or private ones, when signaled. No publicly owned terminals are necessary, as the present facilities are deemed adequate to the existing and prospective commerce. LAKE CRESCENT AND DUNNS CREEK, FLA. Lake Crescent lies in the northeastern part of the peninsula of Florida. Dunns Creek, its outlet, 8% miles in length, leaves the lake at its northern end and flows into St. Johns River 7% miles above Palatka. Lake Crescent is 14 miles long and 1 to 3 miles wide. The project for improvement provides for a channel 8 feet deep at mean low water and 100 feet wide. - The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted of coal, feed, fertilizer, fish, flour, grain and hay, hardware, live stock, meats, logs, lumber, oranges, potatoes, sugar, vegetables, wood, and general merchandise, amounting to 15,237 short tons, valued at $526,592. About 34.8 per cent of the commerce was carried in steamers drawing 7 feet, about 56.5 per cent was composed of logs, in rafts, towed by motor boats drawing from 2% to 3% feet, about 8.7 per cent was local, and carried in motor boats and on lighters drawing from 2% to 3% feet. tº { Lake Crescent is the terminus of the boat lines using this water- way, and they have facilities for handling freight consisting of a semipublic wharf and warehouse. There are private wharves on the lake at which boats land during the orange and vegetable season. The commerce on this waterway is local between Jacksonville, Crescent City, on Lake Crescent, and intermediate points. Dunns Creek, 8% miles long, is the connecting waterway between Lake Crescent and St. Johns River; there are no terminals or trans- fer facilities on it and none are needed. On these waterways no publicly owned terminals are necessary, as the present facilities are deemed adequate to serve the needs of the existing and prospective commerce. OKLAWAHA RIVER, FLA. This river has its source in the chain of large lakes in the central part of the peninsula of Florida, and empties into St. Johns River, Fla., 105 miles from its entrance and 22 miles south of Palatka, Fla. The extreme head of this river is Lake Apopka, 120 miles from its mouth. The width of the river varies from 50 feet to 200 feet in its lower portion or below Silver Springs Run, and from 20 to 75 feet above the run. The project for improvement provides for a depth of 6 feet at mean low water from the mouth to Silver Springs Run, a distance of 62 miles, and 4 feet from Silver Springs Run to Leesburg, 94 miles from the mouth. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—60 * 946 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted of canned goods and groceries, cement, cottonseed meal, feed, fertilizer, flour, fruit, grain, hardware, logs, potatoes, rosin, turpentine, vegetables, and general merchandise, amounting to 11,265 short tons, valued at $417,457. About 64.8 per cent of the total commerce consisted of logs in rafts, towed by motor boats drawing 3 to 34 feet for a part of the route; about 20 per cent of the commerce was carried in motor boats and small steamers drawing 3 to 3% feet, and about 15.2 per º was local on Lake Eustis and carried in a motor boat drawing 5 feet. Along this river there are small landings which are more or less out of repair. The commerce on the river is light, due to the difficulties of its navigation, and the landings are in no sense terminals. Publicly owned terminals are not necessary at this time, owing to the unimproved condition of the waterway; with proposed improve- ment, however, they may be highly desirable. INDIAN RIVER, FLA. This river is a shallow, tidal lagoon on the east coast of the penin- sula of Florida, between the mainland and the keys bordering the coast. It extends from about 25 miles north of Cape Canaveral to St. Lucie Inlet, and has a total length of about 120 miles. - The project for improvement provides for a channel 5 feet deep at mean low water and at least 75 feet wide from Goat Creek to Jupiter Inlet, 17 miles south of St. Lucie Inlet. ſ The commerce for the year 1917 consisted of canned goods and groceries, cement, fertilizer, fish, flour, grain, hardware, hay, lumber, muck, oils and gasoline, oranges, grapefruit, rice, salt, sand, shell, stone, sugar, vegetables, wood, and miscellaneous merchandise, amounting to 52,167 short tons, valued at $693,847. About 20.6 per cent of this commerce was carried in steamers and motor boats draw- ing from 2% to 43 feet and about 79.4 per cent was transported be- tween the islands and keys (between indian River and the ocean) and the mainland in motor boats and on lighters drawing 2% to 3% feet. Publicly owned terminals are not necessary on this waterway with the possible exception of Fort Pierce, where there is prospect of a growing local commerce. ST. LUCIE INLET, FLA. This inlet is at the south end of Indian River, and is an outlet for Indian and St. Lucie Rivers. Tt is about 235 miles south of St. Johns River entrance and 100 miles north of Miami entrance. There is an available depth of about 6 feet in the inlet at the present time. The project contemplated a channel, from the ocean to the inside waters, 18 feet deep at mean low water and 200 feet wide. The commerce for the calendar year, 1917, consisted of fish, the tonnage of which was 322 short tons, valued at $41,8; 3. The commerce was carried in small privately owned motor boats drawing 2 to 3% feet. There are no terminal facilities at this inlet, and, owing to the Small commerce, none are needed. - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 947 * HARBOR AT MIAMI (BISCAYNE BAY), FLA. This harbor embraces the artificial basins and channels that have been dredged in Biscayne Bay along the water front of Miami and from Miami to the ocean through the strip of land between Biscayne Bay and the ocean. Miami is about 33.5 miles south of St. Johns River entrance. - The project for improvement provides for an entrance channel from the ocean 300 feet wide and 20 feet deep at mean low water, and a . channel about 100 feet wide and 18 feet deep at mean low water to the wharves at Miami. The commerce for the calendar year, 1917, consisted of automobiles, building stone, canned goods, cement, coal, crossties, crushed rock, feed, fish, flour, fruits, hardware, ice, lumber, muck, oils, paints, rail- road supplies, rice, rock, sand, sugar, vegetables, wood, and general merchandise, amounting to 244,380 short tons, valued at $6,037,180. Of this amount 36,234 tons, valued at $4,316,900, was export and import, and 208,146 tons, valued at $1,720,280, was local commerce. The export and import commerce was carried in steamers, barges, sail and motor boats drawing from 3 to 13 feet. The local commerce was carried in motor boats and on barges drawing from 2 to 4 feet. Administration of the port.—The administration of the harbor lies in the dock commissioner of the city of Miami, Fla., and the harbor master. The dock commissioner has supervision of the city water front and the various wharves. The harbor master discharges the usual duties of that position. Port charges.—The usual regular immigration and health charges are in force here. The dockage fees are 1 cent per foot per day at the large docks with varying charges at the smaller ones. Bar pilots are stationed at this harbor whose fees are $2 per foot of draft up to 10 feet draft and $3 per foot draft over 10 feet draft. Other charges of pilotage and stevedoring are not available. The wharfage charge at all of the docks and piers above noted is a regular wharfage charge of 1 cent per foot per day, except the Miami Fisheries Co., which charges 5 to 7 cents per hundredweight, as prescribed by the Florida classification; Elser Pier on Bay (which is strictly a pleasure pier) makes a charge of 25 cents per foot per month during the summer, and 2 cents per foot per day during the Winter. ... à The Florida East Coast Railway Co.'s wharf and the Municipal pier are entirely suitable for the needs of the community, and are situated at the terminus of deep water for the port of Miami. Ownership of the arater front.--The city of Miami owns three tracts and two street heads on the Miami River water front. The tracts lie at advantageous points, namely, 150 feet frontage on the north side of the river adjoining Avenue G; all the front between Fifteenth and Sixteenth Streets on the south side of the river; and about 400 feet front near Avenue L on the north side of the river. None of these tracts have been developed. On the Biscayne Bay water front the city owns from Bay Street to Second Street, the location of the municipal dock. The suit over the water front of Miami, between the city of Miami and the Florida East Coast Railway Co., has been recently compromised, giving the city title to the front between Second and Fourth Streets and the frontage between Sixth and Eighth Streets. The tract between 948 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Sixth and Eighth Streets can be used only for park purposes. The balance of the Biscayne Bay water front available for commercial purposes is in the hands of the Florida East Coast Railroad. Local cooperation.—The river and harbor acts of June 13, 1902, and July 25, 1912, and March 4, 1913, imposed the conditions that local interests shall provide suitable terminals open to public use and shall dredge the channels and basins to connect with the channel dredged by the United States. These conditions are being fulfilled as work on the project progresses. * -. Transfer facilities.—All of the terminals are provided with high- way connections and five of them are provided with railroad connec- tions. Boats are allowed to transfer freight at a small cost at all of the terminals except the two Gulf Refining Co.'s wharves, which are used exclusively for handling oils, gasoline, etc. The freight allowed to be transferred is general, except at the Miami Fisheries Co.'s wharf, where it is confined to fish, ice, and boat supplies. The Miami Fisheries Co.'s owners have agreements for through shipments of freight. There are no special facilities for handling freight except as noted below: The Gulf Refining Co.'s wharf at the beach has a pumping station for handling gasoline, oils, etc., and this company’s wharf in Miami River is equipped with a gravity pipe-line system. The Miami Fisheries Co. and the Miami Steamship Co. own boats equipped with machine hoists. Ffficiency of the port.—The efficiency of the port appears to be adequate to the present demands. With the deepening of the channel, however, arrangements will have to be made for bunkering of vessels with coal and furnishing oils and handling cargoes, with mechanical appliances and arrangements made whereby repairs can be made to machinery and hulls. Needs of the port.—The wharves and piers now in use appear to be adequate to the needs of commerce. Improvement in the mechanical appliances for rapid handling of commerce would appear desirable. HARBOR AT KEY WEST, FLA. I º harbor is located at and along the northwest side of Key West Slaſh Ol. The project for improvement provides for a channel 30 feet deep at mean low water and 300 feet wide in the main ship channel, a channel 17 feet deep at mean low water and of sufficient width for navigation through the northwest entrance, and a channel 800 feet wide and 26 feet deep at mean low water opposite the wharves at Rey West. The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted mostly of brick, cement, canned goods, cattle, cigars, coal, fertilizer, fish, flour, furniture, grain, hay, ice, lime, lumber, machinery, manganese, meats, molasses, naval stores, oils, packing-house products, phosphate rock, potatoes, railroad supplies, sand, tobacco, turtles, vegetables, and general merchandise. The tonnage amounted to 745,056 short tons, valued at $46,324,318. Of the total commerce 738,557 tons, valued at $45,416,233, used the main ship channel; 3,594 tons, valued at $474,020, used the northeast entrance; and 2,005 tons, valued at $434,065, did not use either of these entrances. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 949 The draft of the vessels handling this commerce was 20 to 26 feet. in the main ship channel, 6 to 13 feet in the northwest channel, and 3 to 6 feet around the harbor and adjacent islands. - Terminal facilities.—Commercial wharves and piers, nine in number, have a combined berthing space of 10,172 feet, 5,994 feet of which will accomodate vessels drawing 25 feet or less; 4,178 feet will accomodate vessels drawing from 4 to 20 feet. The floor area of warehouses located on or immediately adjacent to these wharves and piers totals 110,315 square feet, of which 54,050 is corrugated iron, 29,025 is brick or stone, and 28,293 is wood. The terminals are adequate for present and prospective commerce. In addition to the jºint piers Government piers have a berthing space of 4,138 feet with a depth of water of from 20 to 25 feet. Except the wharf of the lighthouse establishment all Govern- ment piers have either steel on concrete pile or column foundations. Administration of the port.—Except as to matters relating to pilotage there is no special body charged with port administration. There is a harbor master, and his charges, when his services are accepted, are $5 per vessel. Port charges–Pilotage.—For steamers or vessels drawing 6 feet, or less, $2 per foot; for steamers or vessels drawing from 6 to 10 feet, $3 per foot; for steamers or vessels drawing from 10 to 14 feet, $4 per foot; for vessels drawing from 14 to 20 feet, $5 per foot; for vessels drawing over 20 feet, $6 per foot. These rates apply to all steamers or vessels, whether owned wholly by citizens of the State or not : - Provided That all steamers or vessels carrying the regular United States mails shall pay half pilotage only. Provided further, That all steamers or vessels drawing less than six feet of water and having a coastwise license, shall be exempt from paying whole or half pilotage, unless they shall employ a pilot. Ownership of water front.—There is no property publicly owned on the water front except in the prolongation of city streets. The property is owned by individuals or public or private corpora- tions only in such lengths as are needed for their business. Efficiency of the port.—There is great interest shown in the terminal facilities and these will be improved to handle any business that may require it. The terminal facilities as they now exist are adequate to the business that offers. Coaling facilities are not rapid for general coaling. Regular steamers in the trade have equipment at their wharves for such coaling as is required. The facilities for coaling at the Navy piers is good, as these have special apparatus for loading and unloading coal at a rapid rate. During the war, under the Shipping Board operation, practically all vessels had access to Navy facilities for coaling and repair. Repair facilities for ordinary repair of machinery and boilers are adequate to the business of the port. Docking facilities are limited to a dead-weight tonnage of about 1,000, provided by one privately owned and one Navy marine railway. Two private machine and boiler shops, also doing copper and wood work for shipping, are provided with the necessary tools and apparatus for doing the repairs generally required by vessels in need of ordinary repair. For the special classes of freight handled here the appliances or facilities are considered adequate. 950 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Needs of the port.—For the best interests of the port it would appear that a publicly owned pier, located on the principal water front, having rail and highway connections, and equipped with mechanical appliances for the rapid handling of freight, is needed to stimulate COIn Iſle I’Cé. Florida East Coast R. R. terminals at Key West, Fla.-These ter- minals consist of three piers extending into the harbor from a bulk- headed shore on which are located storage warehouses, tanks, shops, etc. . The lengths and widths of the piers are, 1,200 feet by 135 feet, 700 feet by 135 feet and 730 feet by 200 feet, respectively. Between the 1,200-foot pier and the 700-foot pier is a slip 200 feet in width. The 700-foot and the 730-foot piers are joined together at their shore- ward ends with the 730-foot pier extending 500 feet farthest into the bay. The 500 foot greater length of the 730-foot pier is used for mooring the ocean ferries. At the head of the 700 foot pier there is a slip for the bows of the ocean ferries to enter and there the mechanical appliances for loading and unloading the railroad cars onto the ferries are situated. The bulkhead at the shore ends of the piers and extending north and south from them is constructed of steel sheet and concrete piles and of riprap walls. The piers consist of exterior concrete walls built from the rock bottom of the harbor to about the general elevation of the streets in the city of Key West. 'íhe areas behind the bulkhead and between the exterior walls of the piers are filled in to the desired elevation by dredging and excavating the rock in the slips and along and about the piers to the desired depth of 24 feet. The 1,200-foot pier is used by the passenger and freight steamers in the Habana, Cuba, trade and has the necessary waiting rooms, freight transfer warehouses, sheds, etc. A portion of the 700-foot pier is used for coal storage; the coal being handled by locomotive cranes equipped with grab buckets. . The 730-foot, pier is used for export trade to Cuba via the ocean ferries, which handle solid cars exclusively. in the area back of the bulkheads and piers are located 2 tanks of 1,000,000 gallons capacity, each for storing molasses, 2 tanks of 2,300,000 gallons capacity each for storing fuel oil, with the necessary pumps and pipes, etc., used in handling the molasses and oils, tanks for water (fresh and salt), and shops, sheds, etc., for taking care of the engines, cars, etc., of the railroad. The terminals afford a combined berthing space of 5,135 feet and have a depth of 24 feet at mean low water. Railroad connections are provided to and all about the terminals and to the ocean ferries. The cars are loaded to and from the ferries by means of a bridge which is fitted into a recess in the pier. The bridge is hinged on the end at the pier to allow for raising and lowering the end at the ferry to meet the varying elevations of the decks of the ferries. Two ocean ferries, having loading capacities of from 28 to 30 standard railroad freight cars each, use these terminals in the trade with Habana, Cuba. KISSIMMEE RIVER, FLA. This river has its source in Tohopekaliga Lake and empties into Lal:e Okeechobee; its total length, including several large lakes, is about 137 miles. It is an extremely sinuous, sluggish, nontidal stream, varying in width from 50 to 100 feet. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 951 The project for improvement provides for a depth of 3 feet at ordinary low-water stage and a width of 30 feet.

The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted mostly of as- phalt, brick, canned goods, cement, coal, crossties, ſeed, fertilizer, fish, fruit, fullers’ earth, grain, groceries, hay, hardware, ice, logs, lumber, oils, phosphate, rock, rice, rosin, salt, sand, shell, tobacco leaf, vegetables, fresh water, wood, and general merchandise. It amounted to 733,850 short tons, valued at $25,486,633. Of the total commerce 136,030 tons, valued at $2,687,135 was foreign; 367,478 tons, valued at $14,036,826 was coastwise, and 230,345 tons, valued at $8,762,672 was internal. Of the total commerce, 18 per cent was carried in vessels drawing 20 to 26 feet, and 55.2 per cent was carried in steamers, motor boats, barges, and on lighters drawing about 3 feet. - - The terminals and transfer facilities of the bay are situated at and near the city of Tampa. The harbor at Tampa is to a great extent an artificial one; the available frontage, along the channels which were dredged to a depth of 24 feet under previous project, extends from Hookers Point along the Tampa Northern and Sparkman Bay channels into Ybor Estuary, thence out of the estuary through Hendry and Knight channel around the waterfront at Tampa proper, thence through Seddon Island channel to opposite Hookers Point. There are at this time 4,500 feet of wharf frontage and 90,000 square feet of warehouse space in serviceable condition and available for use. The wharves generally have open timber pile substructure, some of the piles are creosoted, some are concrete jacketed, and some in natural condition. The superstructures are of squared lumber and the warehouses of structural steel or of framed lumber with metal sides and metal or gravel composition roofs. Administration of the port.—The administration of the port is vested in a harbor master, who is appointed by the governor of the State. The duties of the harbor master are prescribed by State laws.

Naval stores: According to the location of the wharf and construction of the vessel, |but range from 9 cents to 11 cents per barrel. Merchandise: Also varies in accordance with the location of the wharf and con- ‘struction of the vessel, but should be about 35% to 40 cents per ton. There is no ‘established rate on merchandise at this port because at present it is being handled by :Steamship, representatives on their own account. Same rates apply for discharging merchandise. No discharging rates are given on lumber, phosphate, and naval stores, for no such -commodities are imported. Bunkering: Under normal conditions the price for Pocahontas coal when taken at the coal wharf is $6.25 or $6.75 per ton when delivered to steamer in any part of the harbor and loaded into the bunker. Oil-burning steamers may also be bunkered. . - .

Towing light vessels from sea to terminals or from terminals to sea: $50 for three-masted vessels, and $75 for four-masted vessels. Shift- ‘ing vessels in harbor from pier to pier $10 to $15 and from pier to stream or from stream to pier $15 to $20, according to distance. . Ownership of the water front.—The ownership of the water front is divided among individuals, the municipality of Tampa and private or public corporations, no one of them owning more than is needed for the business engaged in. Local cooperation.—The river and harbor act of August 8, 1917, adopting the 27-foot project, imposed the following conditions: That no work shall be done by the United States under such project until the city of Tampa shall have given assurances, satisfactory to the Secretary of War, that the city of Tampa will within a reasonable time, and when in his opinion the facilities are needed, acquire full ownership and possession of sufficient land for the establishment of terminals fronting on the Ybor Estuary; will complete the construction thereon of piers and slips in accordance with the plans for development of the Ybor Estuary Zone, heretofore approved by the Secretary of War, or such modified plans as he may approve; will build adequate warehouses and storage sheds on these piers and equip them with suitable rail connections and freight-handling appliances; will construct and put in operation a municipal railroad having physical connection with all railroads entering the city of Tampa and serving the channel frontage on both sides of the estuary, in accordance with the plan of development of the estuary zone approved by the Secretary of War; will open, pave, and make available for use a sufficient number of streets and highways to give proper access to all parts of the estuary channel frontage; and will open these terminals for business under a schedule of reasonable wharfage charges and a set of regulations to be approved by the Secretary of War for the control and operation of the property fronting on the estuary channel, designed to insure its use primarily in the interests of general commerce on equal terms to all: And provided further, That no work shall be done in the channels constituting the harbor of Tampa proper until local interests agree to provide, without cost to the United States or to any º for the work, a suitable place for deposit of material dredged from these Charliſle IS. 958 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. No actual construction of the terminals has been started, but plans looking to the fulfillment of the conditions are under way, and it can be expected they will mature within a reasonable time, as interest in harbor improvements is general and keen. The efforts made to use the facilities available are shown by the fact that vessels have been loaded to the greatest depth it is possible to load them and navigate the channel at high water stage. The connections between the water terminals and railroads appear adequate for the present and prospective commerce. Highway connections are made with the terminals along the Hendry and Knight channel, and modern highways are planned for connection with the improvements to be made on the estuary. Transfer facilities.—The water terminals are connected by spur tracks with one or the other of the two trunk lines of railroad entering Tampa, and the railroads have several places in and about Tampa for the transfer of freight from one to the other of the roads. There is also quite a lighterage transfer business at this port. Efficiency of the port.—The facilities for coaling vessels or for furnishing them with oil appear adequate to present and prospective demands. There are two large and numerous small machine shops for repairs to machinery, and two companies, each having stationary Cranes, with plants capable of handling heavy machinery or boilers. There is one marine railway for handling vessels of about 10 feet draft and one is being constructed to take care of vessels up to 2,500 tons capacity. Storage facilities appear adequate to the present demands. The facilities at Tampa are now good, and the port commission intends to build a municipally owned slip with two piers, which will be of the most modern design and provided with the most up-to-date freight handling equipment. They are to have good connections and are to be connected with the railroads entering the city. The detailed plans for these terminals have not yet been completed. Needs of the port.—In general terms it may be said that marginal wharves of timber or concrete pile substructure, with square timber superstructure, and warehouses of structural steel framing with metal siding and metal or gravel roofing, connected with the different railroads and highways and equipped with mechanical appliances for rapid handling of general and special classes of freight are best suited to the conditions to be met at this port. Greater terminal facilities are needed, as the water terminals that are now available for use, together with those that could be repaired or rebuilt and those that the city contemplates building, would not appear to be adequate to the demands of commerce when shipping resumes its normal state. HILLSBORO RIVER, FLA. This river empties into the upper end of Hillsboro Bay at Tampa. It is tidal to the dam across it 10 miles above the mouth. The project for improvement provides for a depth of 12 feet at mean low water in a channel 200 feet wide from the mouth to within 100 feet of Lafayette Street Bridge. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 959 The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted mostly of asphalt, automobiles, canned goods, cement, coal, feed, fertilizers, fish, fruits, fullers’ earth, grain, groceries, hardware, hay, ice, iron pipe, oils, rosin, sand, shell, vegetables, and general merchandise. It amounted to 313,740 short tons, valued at $13,693,755. Of the total commerce 62,510 tons, valued at $2,095,710, was foreign; 64,838 tons, valued at $3,366,075, was coastwise; and 186,392 tons, valued at $8,231,970, was internal. About 86 per cent of the commerce was carried in steamers, sailboats, motor boats, and barges drawing 4 to 12 feet, and 14 per cent was carried in barges and on lighters drawing from 3 to 3% feet. No publicly owned terminals are necessary. The existing pri- vately owned terminals and the municipal terminals to be con- structed by the port commissioners of Tampa appear to be adequate to the demands of commerce. MANATEE RIVER, FLA. This river is about 45 miles long and empties into Tampa Bay. The project for improvement provides for a channel 100 feet wide and 13 feet deep at mean low water from Tampa Bay to McNeills Point (4 miles), 100 feet wide and 9 feet deep to Rocky Bluff (12 miles), and 75 feet wide and 4 feet deep to Rye (24 miles). The commerce for the calendar year 1917 consisted mostly of auto- mobiles, canned goods, crate material, crossties, fertilizer, flour, fullers' earth, fruits, grain, groceries, hardware, hay, lard, lumber, meats, oils, piles, rosin, sand, shell, sugar, vegetables, wood, and general merchandise. It amounted to 42,222 short tons, valued at $2,115,644. Of this amount 39,384 tons, valued at $2,089,511, passed over the river below Manatee; 15,455 tons, valued at $194,957, passed between Manatee and Rocky Bluff; and 6,172 tons, valued at $46,589, was above Rocky Bluff. Ninety-three and two-tenths per cent of the commerce was carried in steamers, motor boats, and on lighters drawing from 2% to 7% feet; the balance of the commerce was carried in steamers, motor boats, and on lighters drawing from 2% to 4 feet. The larger percentage (93.2 per cent) used the channel below Manatee. Publicly owned terminals are not thought to be necessary, in view of availability of existing facilities. HARBOR AT ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. This harbor is situated on the west shore of Tampa Bay about 19 miles from the entrance. It is an artificial basin within the shore line called Bayboro Harbor. The project for improvement provides for a channel from Tampa Bay into Bayboro Harbor having an available depth of 10 feet at mean low water with a width of 200 feet at the outer end, widening to 285 feet at the shore line, and for a stone jetty on the south side of the channel. - The commerce of this port for the calendar year 1917 consisted mostly of canned goods, cast-iron pipe, cement, drugs, feed, fertilizer, fish, flour, fruits, grain, groceries, hardware, hay, ice, lumber, meats, 960 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. oils, rice, salt, shell, vegetables, and miscellaneous merchandise. It amounted to 22,151 short tons, valued at $2,371,559. Of the total, 2,481 tons, valued at $107,863, entered Bayboro Harbor, and 19,670 tons, valued at $2,263,696, terminated at the wharves along the water front. The commerce into Bayboro Harbor was carried in motor boats and on lighters drawing 3% to 7 feet; the commerce terminating at other wharves was carried in steamers, motor boats, and on lighters drawing 3 to 12% feet. Publicly owned terminals are to be constructed by the city of St. Petersburg in accordance with project adopted by river and harbor act of July 25, 1912. à WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. MONTGOMERY, ALA., DISTRICT. COL. W. D. A. ANDERSON, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. Within this district there are, generally speaking, two types of wharves or terminals—one type for river traffic, and one type for ocean-going traffic. Terminals for river traffic.—Where water terminals have been equipped with proper facilities, and where additional facilities are required, the river banks are steep, with their crest heights consider- ably above the general water surface. The purpose of , terminal facilities, where they exist, is to facilitate the transfer of freight from boats to warehouses located above flood elevation on the crest of the banks, and the reverse transfer to the boats. Experience has shown that the cheapest and sufficiently satisfactory method employed has been the inclined double-track type, each track carrying a car of suitable platform dimensions operated by the usual type of hoisting engines, either steam or electrically driven, one car ascending while the other descends. These tracks enter a warehouse for the storage of incoming or outgoing freight. Photograph submitted herewith shows the shore end of such a terminal on the Alabama River at Montgomery, Ala. The hoist here employed is electrically driven. A photograph' is submitted showing a similar terminal at River Landing on the Chattahoochee River. The hoist here employed is steam driven. . These terminal facilities as shown have proved ade- uate, and their adoption at Columbus, Ga., on the Chattahoochee iver; at Selma, Ala., on the Alabama River; at Gadsden, Ala., and Rome, Ga., on the Coosa River, is recommended, since at these points the terminal facilities at present are insufficient. Terminals for ocean-going traffic.—The only locality in this district where terminal provision for º traffic has been provided is at Pensacola, Fla., on the shore of Pensacola Bay. HARBOR AT PENSACOLA, FLA. This harbor is a natural indentation of the coast line of northwest Florida, about 40 miles east of Mobile Bay. Its principal axis extends northeast, from the entrance in which direction it is about 13 miles long, its width being approximately 5 miles. It is prolonged to the northeast by East Bay, into which empties Blackwater Bay, the mouth of the river of the same name. On the north is Escambia Bay, opening into the main harbor and forming the mouth of the Escambia and Conecuh Rivers. At the southeast, Pensacola Bay opens into Santa Rosa Sound, through which it has a secondary exit to the Gulf of Mexico by way of East Pass. The main entrance to Pensacola Bay from the Gulf of Mexico is through a pass at the south- west extremity of the harbor.

LOAD I NGincline RivERTERMINAL, MONTGOMERY, ALA, 99€ WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 997 The existing project provides for a channel 30 feet deep at mean low water and 500 feet wide from the Gulf of Mexico to the dock line at the east end of the city of Pensacola. Under this project, channels to the depth above indicated were required to be dredged for a dis- tance of 10,000 feet through the outer bar and 1,200 feet through the inner bar. The mean range of tide is approximately 1.4 feet near the entrance and about 2 feet at the head of the bay. The extreme ranges, except during storms, are about 3 feet and 4 feet, respectively. This project was completed during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1915. The commerce during the calendar year 1918 amounted to 356,347 tons and consisted principally of export and bunker coal, cotton, grain, fertilizer material, furnace coke, forgings, lumber, timber, mahogany logs, manganese ore, naval stores, steel billets, and miscellaneous merchandise. In normal years the usual limit of draft for loaded boats was from 22 to 26 feet, and the boats consisted mainly of steam- ers and sailing vessels of the larger type, but in 1918, due to the scarcity of bottoms and the extremely high freight rates, about 60 per cent of the tonnage was carried in light-draft sailing vessels and barges with a usual limit of draft of 12 feet. The remaining 40 per cent was carried in steamers and sailing vessels with a usual limit of draft of 20 to 24 feet. The terminal and transfer facilities of this port consist principally of the following: - Three wharves of the creosoted pile type, capped and floored, owned and operated by the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co.; one equipped exclusively for handling coal, gravel, and like commodities, and the remaining two equipped for the handling and storage of cotton, merchandise, fertilizer material, etc. Both equipment and service are very good. One terminal consisting of three wharves, built on creosoted piling and frame work, partially bulkheaded, owned and operated by the Gulf, Florida & Alabama Railway Co.; these wharves are amply equipped for the handling of coal and the handling and storage of cotton, merchandise, fertilizer material, etc. These terminals are each connected with the tracks of the railroad company owning and operating them and through the tracks of the Pensacola Electric Co. with each other. They are regarded as *: for the present and prospective requirements of commerce. The port is under the direct supervision of a harbormaster, who is nominated by popular vote and appointed by the governor of the State. The following charges are made by the harbormaster for all vessels entering the port: Berth for vessels entering to take on cargo, per net registered ton up to 2,000 tons- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - $0.01 Berth for vesse's entering to take on bunker coal, per net registered ton up to 4,000 tons---------------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . * = • - - - - - - * * * * .00% Maximum charge------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20. 00 Minimum chºrge------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.00 Move of vesse's around docks, each . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5. 00 To or from quarantine station. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10. 00 Under 6 feet--- . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ." - - - - - - - - - - - - $2 6 feet, under 10 feet... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 10 feet, under 14 feet. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 14 feet, under 20 feet. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .----------------------------------- 5 20 feet and over----------------------------------............. . . . . . . . . . . 6 998 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The distance from Pensacola anchorage to the sea buoy is slightly under 10 miles. If, however, a vessel is sighted many miles from the Sea buoy, and the wind is adverse, a tug goes to her, takes her to port, but collects only the same amount as if such vessel had under sail reached the sea buoy. This is also true of pilotage. Pilots generally board vessels well outside the sea buoy; therefore the actual distance varies, without extra charge. The distance from anchorage off Pen- sacola to quarantine is about 6 miles: move of vessel from anchorage to wharves varies from one-half mile to 2 miles. Vessels moving from Pensacola to quarantine require no pilot. Pilotage.—A vessel drawing less than 14 feet and more than 10 feet is boarded by a pilot at or outside the sea buoy and taken to anchorage off Pensacola for $40. When loaded, let her draft be 24 feet, a pilot boards her in the harbor and takes her outside the sea buoy for $144. The pilotage on bunker ships is reduced to conform to the same charges at Newport News. This gives the Pensacola coal dealers an equal chance with those of Newport News. A vessel enters for bunker coal, drawing 16 feet; she is boarded by a pilot at or outside the sea buoy and taken to her coaling berth in Pensacola for $48. After coaling she draws 22 feet. A pilot boards her in the harbor and takes her to or outside the sea buoy for $66. The charges for pilotage are fixed by State law. Placing orders aboard at sea, vessel proceeding, rated as one pilot- age with minimum of $25. Vessels proceeding to Gulf ports fre- quently speak Pensacola, as directed by owners, to receive further orders. When such vessel reaches the sea buoy the pilots carry to them the further orders which previously had been sent to Pensacola for delivery. For delivering these orders to such vessels in the Gulf, the pilots receive a minimum charge of $25, which means one pilotage. This is the least charge for one pilotage on a vessel drawing 84 feet or less. Should such vessel draw more than this the delivery of orders would be more than $25, or one pilotage for vessel of her draft. Bunker rates.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 999 Towage, square rigged.—Case 1: If a vessel is towed in, whose towage by the rate would not equal $50, such vessel is charged for minimum towage, viz., $50. Case 2: If a vessel of 800 tons is towed in light, the towage charges would be 20 cents per gross ton. If such vessel takes on cargo in port, and is towed to sea, the round-trip towage would become 25 cents per ton, or the total towage would be $200. Case 3: If a vessel of 800 tons is towed in loaded, discharges cargo, takes on another cargo and is towed to Sea, the round towage would be 30 cents per gross ton, or $240. Case 4: If a vessel is towed in light and out light, special rates would be given. Schooners: The same rules govern as in the case of square riggers, except the rates would be 20 cents and 25 cents, respectively. A round-trip towage consists of towing a vessel to anchorage off the port, berthing her after such has been assigned, taking her to anchorage after being loaded, and towing her to sea after her papers have been accomplished. If an additional move is called for, an extra charge would be made at the rate as given—“Minimum move.” If for any reason a steamer wishes to be moved from one anchorage in the harbor to another, the towage charges would be 3 cents per gross ton. If her towage by this rate is less than $35, the latter is charged. Considering the price of coal, subsist- ence, upkeep of vessel and equipment, and considering the idle time, the charges are reasonable. - There are no publicly owned terminal facilities at this harbor as present facilities are found to be adequate. The city of Pensacola owns approximately 6,300 feet of water front, and in 1914 bonds amounting to $400,000 were voted for municipal docks and belt-line railway. These bonds have been authorized and validated by the State legislature but have never been sold, due to the fact that these facilities are not deemed necessary at the present time. They are, however, available when the necessity arises. . There is considerable general interest shown in the subject of terminal facilities, as is evidenced by the bond issue of 1914, and the efforts made to utilize the navigation facilities are such that the resent facilities would be utilized, under ordinary conditions, to fully 75 per cent of their capacity. . . * The terminal facilities afforded by this port are considered excellent. The Louisville & Nashville, and Gulf, Florida & Alabama Railway terminals afford berthing space of 9,678 linear feet of 26 to 30 feet depth and together with other wharves, 7,382 feet additional of 10 to 25 feet depth. Vessels loading or unloading cargoes lie alongside these wharves using their own machinery for handling same. The coaling facilities of the port are handled by the Louisville & Nash- yille Railroad at Muscogee Wharf and by the Gulf, Florida & Ala- bama Railway at its coaling pier. These facilities are considered unusually efficient. The facilities at Muscogee Wharf consist of two 24-ton vertical double-bucket hoists, each having a capacity of 210 tons per hour, making a total capacity of 420 tons per hour. These hoists may be operated together or independently as desired. The hoists elevate the coal to a sufficient height so that it may be deliv- ered to vessels at any desired height above the water up to 50 feet, thus enabling the highest vessels to be reached. Delivery of the coal is made through adjustable chutes that may be raised to any desired height up to 50 feet above the water, or lowered as required. The chutes are also adjustable horizontally so that the hatches in yessels of different size and arrangement can readily be reached. These hoists are electrically operated and are automatic in action; they are located near the outer end of the coal dock, leaving the remaining 10 chutes on the coal trestle intact, so that they may be used for coaling vessels where height is not an object, thus enabling two steamers to be coaled at one time. The maximum capacity 1000 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. of each of these 10 chutes is from 100 to 200 tons per hour, depend- ing on the cars; a fair average would be about 150 tons per hour. The extent to which the chutes could be worked simultaneously depends on the size of the hatch of the vessel taking coal; generally not more than two chutes can be worked at the same time. The facilities at the Gulf, Florida & Alabama terminals consist of an electrically operated coaling pier 46 feet by 600 feet, having a capacity of 600 tons per hour. The coal is dumped direct from the cars into three steel-track hoppers, located just back of the bulkhead line; motor-operated shakers deposit the coal on a belt system 1,400 feet long which carries the coal to an endless elevating hopper chute from which it is delivered direct to the vessels. The elevator may be moved along the entire length of the coaling pier so that it is possible to coal ships at any point of the pier. The Pensacola Electric Co. furnishes a belt-line service on its standard-gauge tracks on Main Street connecting with the two sets of railway piers (except Muscogee coal wharf) and with the more important intermediate piers. 4. The Texas Oil Co. owns and maintains a pier approximately 1,000 feet long, near the south end of Clubbs Street, which is approached by a channel 1,700 feet long and 140 feet wide by 28 feet deep. These improvements are used in connection with a i.supply station owned and maintained by this company. - The repair facilities of the port consist of two electrically operated dry docks of 1,200 tons and ; ,000 tons dead-weight lifting capacity, owned and operated by the Bruce Dry Dock Co. Working in con- nection with the dry docks is the Gulf Machine Works, which has a well-equipped machine shop, boiler repair shop, and foundry. The Pensacola Shipbuilding Co. has 2,000 feet of ways located on Bayou Chico, within the city limits, and is now engaged in the con- struction of 10 steel vessels for the Emergency Fleet Corporation, with the possibility of additional contracts. Upon the completion of these contracts it is understood to be the intention of this corpora- tion to maintain a large repair plant and rolling mill at its present plant. With the above facilities it is thought that practically all ships entering or clearing from this port could have any necessary repairs made. The storage facilities are considered ample for the present and prospective requirements. As an example of the general efficiency of this port, during the past year the steamer Mercian, of the Leyland Line, took on 1,000 tons of cargo and 1,000 tons of bunker coal in eight hours, arriving and sailing on the same day. Muscogee wharf.-This wharf is located on the northern shore of Pensacola Bay, about 1% miles northeast of the city of Pensacola, and consists of a structure 2,440 feet long, 120 feet wide at the outer end and 46 feet wide at the shore end, built on creosoted piling and framework. A building suitable for office purposes, is erected near its outer end. The area is 190,200 square feet, of which area 108,150 Square feet is in 28 feet of water. There are seven railroad tracks pertaining to this wharf, aggregating 11,600 feet. The west side is equipped with two elevated tracks built on trestlework, the west H.

Empty cars are passed to a transfer table at the south end where they are shifted to the east elevated track and removed from the wharf without disturbing work with ships. , Beneath the elevated track on the lower level a ship-side track is installed, thus enabling vessels to take on cargo at the same time that they are receiving bunker coal. The east side of the wharf is equipped with two 900– foot uncovered tracks, which are suitable for handling bulky com- modities between vessels and open or uncovered cars. On the outer end there is an electrically driven bunkering elevator with adjustable chutes, having a capacity of 420 tons per hour. A complete water system, connected with the city water works, and a complete electric lighting system, are installed. This wharf is intended primarily for the handling of coal, gravel, and like commodities from bottom-dump cars, and has proved very satisfactory. . It is the property of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. and is open to .# carriers on equal terms at published rates. There are no wharfage charges made for vessels receiving bunkers at this wharf as same are absorbed in the rates on the coal. The tracks of the Louisville & Nashville Rail- road extend onto this wharf and, through the tracks of the Pensacola Electric Co., a connection exists with the tracks of the Gulf, Florida & Alabama Railway. There is no interchange of traffic between rail and water; that is, no through bills of lading are issued to water lines, and there are no highway connections. Tarragona Street wharf-This wharf is located on the northern shore of Pensacola Bay at the foot of Tarragona Street, in the city of Pensacola, and consists of a structure 1,950 feet long by 130 to 150 feet wide, built on creosoted piling and framework. The area is 237,222 square feet, of which 138,422 square feet is in 28 feet of water and 98,800 square feet in 15 feet of water. This wharf has 5,705 linear feet of track, 4,890 feet being on the lower level and 815 feet on the inclined and upper level, thus enabling a vessel to take on or dis- charge cargoes from both levels at the same time. On the west side there is a warehouse of frame construction sheathed with galvanized iron, 50 feet wide by 815 feet long. The outer 400-foot section of this warehouse is designed for the storage of boat material, while the remainder is used for general storage and handling. The capacity of this warehouse is 800 pounds to the square foot. The east side is arranged with five tracks located between the east side of the ware- house and the bulkhead at shipside. These tracks are not covered and the berths are suitable for handling bulky commodities between vessels and open or uncovered cars. A complete water system, con- nected with the city water works for fire protection and water supply, and a complete lighting system are installed. There are no mechan- ical appliances at this wharf; vessels lie alongside and receive their cargoes direct from cars or from warehouse, using their own machin- ery for handling when possible. This terminal, with its warehouse and appliances, is the property of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. and is intended for the handling of mixed freight commodities, for which purpose it is considered suitable under the existing condi- tions. The rate charged for berths is three-tenths of a cent per reg- istered ton per day when full cargoes are taken; when partial cargoes are taken special rates are made. It is open to all carriers on equal terms at published rates for storage and handling. The tracks of 1002 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. the Louisville & Nashville Railroad extend onto this wharf, and through the tracks of the Pensacola Electric Co., a connection exists with the tracks of the Gulf, Florida & Alabama Railway. There is no interchange of traffic between rail and water; that is, no through bills of lading are issued to water lines. The streets of Pensacola connect with the shore end of this terminal. Commandancia Street wharf.-This wharf is located on the northern shore of Pensacola Bay, at the foot of Commandancia Street, in the city of Pensacola, and consists of a structure 2,065 feet in length and 108 feet in width, built on creosoted piling and framework. The available depth of water is 30 feet. There are five railroad tracks pertaining to this wharf, aggregating 18,490 feet. The warehouse is a two-story structure of frame construction, sheathed with galvanized iron and having a roof area of 105 feet by 1,200 feet; the floor area is 50 feet by 1,200 feet for each story, or a total floor area of 120,000 square feet, which leaves a covered platform on each side of the ware- house 25 by 1,200 feet; the capacity of this warehouse is 1,200 and 800 pounds to the square foot on the first and second stories, respec- tively. The lower story is served by two tracks on the west side and one track on the east side, and the second story by one track on each side. The arrangement of these tracks admits of loading or unloading direct from one or both levels from the vessel or warehouse or from cars direct into the vessel or into the warehouse. The upper level is equipped with shipside platforms 11 feet wide and under cover of the main roof of the building, and these platforms may be depressed so as to admit of the delivering of bunker coal from bottom-dump cars to vessels at the same time that cargo is being taken. A com- plete water system, connected with the city waterworks for fire pro- tection and water supply, and a complete lighting system are in- stalled. There are no mechanical appliances at this wharf; vessels lie alongside and receive their cargoes direct from cars or warehouse, using their own machinery for handling when possible. This termi- nal, with its warehouse and appliances, is the property of the Louis- ville & Nashville Railroad Co., and is intended for the transfer of mixed cargoes from cars or warehouse to vessels, or for the reverse transfer, for which purpose it is considered suitable under existing conditions. The rate charged for berths is three-tenths of a cent per registered ton per day if full cargoes are taken; when partial cargoes are taken special rates are made. , t is open to all carriers on equal terms at published rates for storage and handling. The tracks of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. extend onto this wharf and, through the tracks of the Pensacola Electric Co., a connection exist;. with the tracks of the Cºulf, Florida & Alabama Railway. There is no interchange of traffic between rail and water; that is, no through bills of lading are issued to water lines. The streets of Pensacola connect with the shore end of this terminal. Gulf Florida & Alabama Railway terminals.-These terminals are located on the norther,) shore of Pensacola Bay, between Reils and Devilliers Streets, in the city of Pensacola, and consist of three wharves built on creosoted piling and frame work, braced and par- tially bulkheaded, with a total berthing space of 3,800 feet. Lying immediately inboard from the bulkhead line there is a tract of land containing 30 acres, on which has been constructed tracks for storage of 300 cars. This tract of land has a frontage of one-quarter mile WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1003 in the business center of Pensacola and 23 acres are still remaining for open storage or for the construction of additional facilities when necessary. The track layout is designed so that each pier is served py such track and yard facilities as will permit complete cargoes for incoming ships to be concentrated in properly distributed “loaded” yards, with an adjacent “empty” yard for each pier. The following is a description of the three piers: Pier No. 1 is an electrically operated coaling pier, 46 by 600 feet, having a capacity of 600 tons per hour. Pier No. 2 is 800 feet in length by 100 feet in width, having a space of 500 by 72 feet under cover ...?.300 by 100 feet open. This pier is occupied by three tracks, one on either side of the covered portion and extending to the end of the pier, and a depressed track through the center of the warehouse and to the end of the pier to facilitate the handling of heavy shipments. The warehouse on this pier is a frame structure covered with high-grade gravel roofing. *... Pier No. 3 is 1,325 feet in length by 44 feet in width and equipped with three tracks at the outboard end. Ships can load and discharge cargoes at either side of the pier, which is designed largely for the handling of lumber, logs, etc. These piers are the property of the Gulf, Florida & Alabama Rail- way and are open to all carriers on equal terms at published rates for storage and handling. In addition, a dockage charge is made for all vessels, except those taking coal, as follows: Minimum charge, $3; maximum charge, $50, up to and including 20 days in berth, after which a charge of 3 cents per ton-day is made. There are no wharfage charges made for vessels taking coal, as same are absorbed in the rates on the coal. For the handling of freight to and from ship sides, a 20-ton self-propelling locomotive crane is provided. This terminal is considered suitable for the handling of the various commodities for which it is intended. The tracks of the Gulf, Florida & Alabama Railway extend onto these terminals and, through the tracks of the Pensacola Electric Co., a connection exists with the tracks of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. There is no inter- change of traffic between rail and water; that is, no through bills of lading are issued to water lines. The streets of Pensacola connect with the shore end of this terminal. # ; WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSIFIER, FACILITIES. CARRABELLE HARBOR, FLA. BOAT LANDINGS.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES, MOBILE, ALA., DISTRICT. - COL. R. S. THOMAS, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. MOBILE HARBOR, ALA. General description of harbor.—The existing project for Mobile Harbor provides for a channel 450 feet wide, 33 feet deep, and about 1 mile long across the outer bar in the Gulf of Mexico, and a channel 300 feet wide, 30 feet deep, and 33% miles long from deep water in Mobile Bay to Chickasaw Creek, about 5 miles above the mouth of Mobile River. The harbor proper is confined to that portion of Mobile River between Chickasaw Creek on the north extending southwardly to a point about 13 miles below the mouth of the river in Mobile Bay. It is almost completely landlocked and has an average range cf tide of about 1% feet. Mobile River is formed by the junction of the Alabama and Tom- bigbee Rivers, the latter having been improved by the Federal Government by the construction of a system of locks to provide an outlet by water from the vast coal and iron fields of the Birmingham district to tidewater on the Gulf. The inland waterways tributary to the port of Mobile are: 1. Warrior, Black Warrior, Tombigbee, and Mobile River system with locks and dams and 6-foot navigable depth, from Mobile to Sanders Shoals, 44.1 miles. 2. Tombigbee River from mouth of Warrior River to Durdans Ferry, navigable depth 6 feet, 15 miles. 3. Alabama River from mouth to Montgomery, Ala., navigable depth 3 feet, 293 miles. The city of Mobile is the only deep-water port in the State of Alabama and occupies both banks of Mobile River, which has an average width of about 900 feet. The portion on the east side is but little developed, without rail connections or streets and does not enter into the commerce of the port, being used principally by shipbuilding and repair plants. On the west bank of the river there have been constructed a series of wharves and piers for a length of about 14,000 feet from the mouth of the river to One Mile Creek, and a few wharves of minor value above this point. - Commercial statistics for calendar year 1918.

Import traffic was principally for interior points, and the greater portion of the foreign shipments Originated within a small radius ofMobile. • . Size and type of vessels used.—The coastwise commerce is carried by bay steamers, tugs, and barges of small drafts and tonnage except a small portion to Ai. ports, which is carried in coastwise steam- ers. The foreign commerce is handled with sailing vessels and steamers of net registered tonnage varying from 197 to 3,680. The draft of all vessels entering the port during the year 1918 is as follows: Draft of vessels entering port during 1918. Steamers. Sailing vessels. Total vessels.

Each of them has its own terminals to which spurs have been built connecting with the main line. These terminals are open to the public on equal terms. There is no belt line, but the tracks of the various companies through the city streets provide for transfer of freight between the different roads. - There is also a number of privately owned wharves which are used to serve the needs of the owner. They are, as a rule, small and con- fined to local trade and some of them are without rail connection. There is only one privately owned wharf that could be considered of commercial importance. This is the property of the Turner Terminal Co. and is open to the public on equal terms. It has a modern warehouse and rail connection and is one of the largest individual terminals located at this port. Most of the freight is handled either by hand or by the vessels' tackle, except in a few instances where mechanical means are used for handling special classes of freight. - Practically all of the terminals have connection with the city over improved city streets, the few remaining ones having connection with a county highway leading to the city. Adequacy of terminals.-The existing terminals are considered mple for handling the present commerce, but are not sufficient for any considerable increase, and the amount of storage space for assembling cargo is considered insufficient. The completion of the municipal pier now under construction will provide for these de- . ficiencies. 1022 water TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Port administration.—Jurisdiction over Mobile Harbor is invested in the State harbor commission by virtue of an act (No. 628) of the Legislature of the State of Alabama, approved September 25, 1915. - Port charges.—Charges for pilotage between the city and the Gulf in either direction are based on the draft of vessels in accordance with the following schedule: - Price per Draft: - - foot draft. 9 feet or less---------------------------------------------------------- $2.50 9} to 10% feet--------------------------------------------------------- 3.00. 11 to 12 feet---------------------------------------------------------- 3.25 12% to 14 feet--------------------------------------------------------- 3. 50 14% to 20 feet. -------------------------------------------------------- 5. 00 20% feet and greater. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6.00 The distance from the city to the sea buoy covered by these rates is 34 miles.

This charge is based on the size and type of vessel as follows: Steamships under 1,000 tons, $6 for each shift; steamships over 1,000 tons, $10 for each shift; all sailing vessels, $5 for each shift. . - Towage.—The charge of services of tugboats in moving vessels between two points in the harbor or between the city and sea is based on size of vessel. - For towing lighters or barges in port the cost is $5 to $10, depend- ing on the size of barge and the distance covered by the shift. º º. - - º º -ºxº * - WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1028. Shifting and docking steamships from one berth to another is charged for at the rate of $40 to $50 according to size. Assisting a steamer to or from sea costs $25 per hour for the services of the tug. For towing sailing vessels from sea or bay to the city or in the reverse order the charge is 40 cents to 50 cents per ton, according to the size of vessel, based on the registered tonnage, and if loaded both ways an additional charge of 5 cents per ton is made. Shifting in port from one berth to another, according to size of vessel and length of shift, the charge is $15 to $25. Dockage and demurrage on vessels.-No charge is made against a ship for use of wharf while taking on or discharging cargo, and ships are not permitted to occupy berths at the wharves while not so engaged, but usually anchor in the stream, for which no charge is made. In some cases where a ship desires to remain at a wharf for making repairs that would not necessitate going on º dock or during dispute over charter or other cause, a charge would probably be made, subject to terms between ship and owner of the wharf. There is no published schedule of such charges, and no ship would be allowed to occupy the space if another vessel was waiting for the berth. This applies to all wharves except the municipal wharf, where dockage charges are assessed in accordance with published schedule. - No wharves are assigned to steamship lines for their especial use. For convenience in assembling cargo and the special class of freight to be handled it has been customary for the Mobile & Ohio Railroad to accumulate freight for certain lines at definite piers. No assign- ment rental is received by the railroad, and the charges consist of the usual wharfage assessed against all cargo alike, regardless of the pier over which handled or whether the steamer is a regular liner or tramp. In following this custom freight for the Mallory Line is stored at Pier No. 4, while that for the Munson Line is held at Pier No. 6 for South American trade and Pier No. 8 for the Cuban trade. Pier No. 1 is used for handling tropical fruits and accumulating cargo for Central American countries on the return trip of the fruit ves- sels. Cotton for the European countries for all vessels engaged in this trade is accumulated at Pier 2, on which the cotton warehouses are located, and miscellaneous European freight is handled over Pier 3. As stated, it is customary for the lines mentioned above to handle their freight over certain piers, but this schedule is not strictly adhered to, as these piers are open to all vessels alike, though it is a matter of convenience for handling cargo. At the municipal wharf assignment rental is charged in lieu of wharfage charges on Mobile Bay packets. - Wharfage charges.—The municipal-wharf charges and storage charges are in accordance with a published schedule. The charges for storage are calculated to serve more as a demurrage plan than for revenue, the intent being to prevent the abuse of the storage privilege and to fix the total income to slightly exceed the expense of operation and maintenance. ſº The Turner Terminal Co. charges are shown on page 1035, and those of the railroads on pages 1035 and 1037. The railroad charges for storage at their warehouses on the water front apply only on goods that are not shipped on through bills of lading. Freight billed to Mobile is allowed ió days free storage, pro- vided that the railroad is notified within 48 hours after arrival of the • 1024 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. goods at Mobile that it is destined for export. If notice is not given within the time specified, then the storage charges begin after 48 hours. If goods are unloaded and held in cars the demurrage charges in force apply. Import goods are allowed 48 hours after notification of consignee of arrival of goods, after which time the storage charges are the same as those for export. These charges are 2 cents per 100 pounds for the first 5 days, with a minimum charge of 25 cents; 3 cents per 100 pounds for the next 5 days, with a minimum charge of 50 cents for the 10 days; and 3 cents per 100 pounds for each 5-day period or fraction after the first 10 days. Stevedoring charges.—The average cost of Stevedoring at this port based upon the present scale of wages, on some of the principal com- modities now being handled, is as follows: Cotton, 25 cents per bale. Lumber and timber, $1.75 per 1,000 superficial feet. Flour, 50 cents per long ton. - Pig iron, zinc, copper, etc., 62% cents per long ton. Iron pipe, $1 per long ton. Auto trucks, $1 per long ton. Hav, 75 cents per long ton when compressed, and $1.50 if not compressed. Timber handled out of the water from the vessel's side, $1.75 to $2.25 per 1,00) superficial feet. Stevedoring facilities.—This service, which covers the movement of cargo either from warehouse or wharf into the ship's hold and stowage therein, or the removal of the cargo from the hold or dock of the ship and delivery to warehouse, wharf, or railroad cars, is usually per- formed by public stevedores except in some cases when the railroads employ day labor under company foremen. This service is paid for by the ship except in such cases where commodities call for ship-side delivery, when the charge is absorbed by the railroad. The master of the ship or the agent makes the contract with the stevedore when this charge is assessed on the vessel. The larger part of the freight is transferred by hand labor, the placing into the vessel's hold being done by ship's tackle. A locomo- tive crane is available at the dock of the Turner Terminal Co. for handling the heavier articles, and banana conveyors are furnished by the United Fruit Co. for taking fruit from the vessel's hold. The Walsh Stevedoring Co. operates a 5-ton derrick in connection with its work. This covers the equipment in use, for which no extra charge is made. Floating derricks are available on a rental basis whenever needed, but are only used when hand labor is insufficient. . Charges for floating derricks.—The number available with the capacity and rental charges and the owners are as follows: Owner. Capacity. Rental charges. - Tom 8.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1025 Absorption of charges.—Railroads absorb terminal charges on goods shipped on through bills of lading except lumber, timber, rosin, and cross-ties, which are considered local. The terminal charges include switching, wharfage, unloading, and storage. Wages.—Longshoreman's wages prevailing on June 30, 1919, are as follows: 65 cents per hour for common labor on day work and 97% cents per hour for night work. Foremen receive 75 cents per hour, and side carriers, who supervise stacking of cargo, 70 cents per hour with an increase of 50 per cent for night work. Overtime is paid for at time and a half, and double time is charged for all holidays and Sundays. The wages for unloading bananas are 50 cents per hour for common labor and 60 cents per hour for foremen. Labor used at this port for handling cargo is union labor. Lighterage charges.—Only a small portion of the freight is lightered at this port. The cost of such service is $5 to $10 per day for rent of barges, depending on size and $5 to $10 for each shift by tugboat, depending on size and distance. Drayage charges.—Drayage on cotton is 15 cents per bale from rail- road terminals or cotton warehouses to wharf. Practically all other freight is handled in carload lots direct to ship-side. Switching charges.—On freight originating at competitive points or which is shipped on through bills of lading, this charge is absorbed by the railroad. The cost of this service on all other freight is $2 per car for each transfer between railroads or from railroad to private wharf. Warehouse and storage charges are shown on page 1035. Elevator charges and grain storage.—See page 1033. Dry dockage.—Uniform charges are in force for docking vessels at this port. For hauling out and launching the cost is 20 cents per ton and the lay-day charge is 15 cents per ton based on the gross regis- tered tonnage of the vessel. The lay-day charge commences 24 hours after hauling out. - Charges for bunkering coal.—These charges are usually included in the contract with the company for furnishing the coal, the price being based on delivery in the vessel's bunkers. ... The prevailing prices on June 30, 1919, for coal in bunkers are as follows: Run of mine, about $5.75 per ton; washed coal, $7 to $7.50 per ton. This cost includes trimming in bunkers. - Harbor dues.—There are none. The State of Alabama makes an annual appropriation for paying the salaries of employees. Port warden's fees.—There are none. Quarantine fees and fumigating.—The cost of this service is 14 cents per 1,000 cubic feet of space in the vessel. A charge of $1 for superin- tendence and $2 for labor is made. - Miscellaneous fees and charges.—Watchmen, $3 per day, either day or night shift. Tally clerks, 65 cents per hour during day or $1 per hour during night. Weighing and measuring.—This service is performed by checkers or tally clerks, the wages paid at the rate of 50 cents per hour. Running lines for vessels.-Four dollars per ship. Charges for water furnished.—Water is #."vessels at the docks where they are receiving or discharging cargo and the cost varies between the different docks. The Mobile & Ohio Railroad furnishes water in large quantities at 12 cents per ton and in smaller quantities 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2-—65 1026 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. at 25 cents to 50 cents per ton. At some of the docks the rate is as high as $1 per ton. This water comes from the city mains, which is almost chemically pure and uncontaminated. The watershed from which it is obtained is policed by the city. Electric current.—Current is furnished at all of the terminals by the Mobile Electric Co. The direct current is supplied at 240 volts, and the alternating current, 3-phase, 60-cycle, at either 220 or 2,300 volts. Lights for which no charge is made are available at all wharves. If additional lights are required, a charge of $1 per night for each line is made. º Lighthouse fees.—There are none. Brokerage fees for entering goods at customhouse.—Fees vary from $3 to $10 according to the service. Rent of tarpaulins.—The charge for this protection varies from $25 for covering as high as 6,000 bales of cotton to $40 for larger amounts. This rental covers the entire time of the vessel while taking cargo. Inspection of cargo.—A charge of 75 cents per car is made on grain and 60 cents per 1,000 bushels in less than carload lots. No schedule is in force for any other class of freight. Fees for making out bills of lading.—The cost of this service is $3 per car on lumber and 15 cents per bale on cotton. Consul's fees.—The fees of the British consul are $1.90 and of the Norwegian consul is $1.10 for each ship. The consul of Honduras charges $10. The charge of customhouse for entering ship is $3.15 and for clearing $2.70. Doctor's fees.—A charge of $25 is made during the time the vessel is in port to cover all medical services that might be necessary. Insurance.—The cost of insuring cargo against fire varies from 75 cents to $1.50 per $100 value, and depends on the location and con- struction of warehouse. The insurance covers the length of storage period, which is about 60 days as maximum time under ordinary conditions. . - A comparison of the terminal charges of the port of Mobile with those of the other Gulf ports is summed up by Messrs. Ford, Bacon, and Davis in their report of January 16, 1916. - Public control of waterfront.—The control of waterfront is vested in the State harbor commission, which has power to lease, acquire, create, Qwn, and control terminal facilities and terminal railroads and for acquiring rights of way and property by purchase and eminent domain. This body has not acquired property and has limited its powers to administration of the port. The publicly owned terminals in existence at the present time are owned by the municipality and consist of about 1,500 feet of continuous wharfage, centrally located, with rail connection and modern warehouse. This wharf is located on the west side of the river and extends from Dauphin Street to St. Anthony Street. * The city has under construction at a point about 13 miles below the mouth of Mobile River, on the west side of Mobile Bay, a pier of timber construction and earth fill which when completed will extend 8,300 feet into the bay. The width over the outer 5,800 feet will be 300 feet and at the inner portion this width will be increased 1,315 feet over the remaining portion of the pier. It is expected later to provide for development of this pier by the construction of ample warehouses for handling and storing cargo in advance of the arrival WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 102.7 of the carrier. The publicly owned frontage on which this pier is being built has a length of 1,998 feet. A municipal belt line con- necting this pier with all railroads which enter the city is under consideration. The following letter from the city engineer of Mobile gives the details of the proposed plan: - MoBILE, ALA., March 17, 1919. DEAR SIR: Referring to recent conversations, I take pleasure in submitting this outline statement regarding the municipal terminals now owned or in process of con- struction by the city of Mobile. MUNICIPAL WHARVEs. This improvement, familiarly called the municipal wharves, owned by the city and completed and in operation, has a river frontage of 1,500 feet in the business heart of the city. It is shown on the accompanying map * (under the name “City wharves.” just west of the word “Mobile” in name of Mobile River). This wharf property has, including Front Street, a depth from the harbor line of 250 feet. The improvement consists of a steel frame, composition roof, shed 100 feet wide and 1,240 feet long, with steel roof trusses supported from end to end without intervening columns. This structure is of best grade of construction. It is substantially paved throughout in concrete. . It is directly served by tracks of the Mobile & Ohio-Southern Railroad system, which run along the entire shed on the side opposite the water and one-third of the shed length on the river side. These tracks have direct connection, about 700 feet south of the shed, with the tracks of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, and con- nection with the Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad, which enters the southwest part of the city, over the Louisville & Nashville track and the belt line of the Mobile & Ohio-Southern system circling the northern and western portions of the city. ARLINGTON MUNICIPAL PIER. This extensive improvement is now under actual construction under contract, along the south city limits in the upper end of Mobile Bay. Bonds have been sold for this improvement to the amount of $600,000 and the money deposited in local banks to the credit of the city. Bulkheads for the combined pier and breakwater are now under construction and dredging will immediately follow completion of the bulkheads. It is in º to dredge the channel and turning basin to the main ship channel to the lower bay, and to deepen them from time to time as the Government channel is deepened. It is the intention of the city to extend its tracks from this pier to the Louisville & Nashville Railroad and thence northwestwardly to a connection near the intersection of Government Street and Fulton Road with the Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad and Mobile & Ohio-Southern system, which latter is the belt line above referred to. The total length of berthing space on the north side of this pier will be 7,200 feet. Adequate tracks will be constructed for loading and switching. Improve- ments in the way of warehouses and loading devices will be planned and constructed as the work on the pier progresses, it being the policy of the city to decide on the nature of the further improvements in the light of the latest experience as to the needs of the port as work on the pier progresses and to complete portions of the pier as need therefor becomes apparent. The amount of working space, loading space, and ware- housing space, including 140 acres of ground made by dredging, is so large as to allow ample room for suitable developments as the growing needs of the port manifest them- selves from time to time. BELT LINE CONNECTIONS. From the accompanying map it will be noticed that with the municipal track from the Arlington Municipal Pier completed to the Mobile & Ohio belt as above shown, the Arlington Municipal Pier and the Municipal Wharves will both be connected with all the railroads in the city by a belt line, consisting of a complete loop by which both municipal properties can be reached from two opposite directions by every rail- road in the city. This belt system will give every railroad in the city, viz, the Louis- ville & Nashville, Gulf, Mobile & Northern, and Mobile & Ohio-Southern system direct municipal track connection with the Arlington Municipal Pier. It will give the Mobile & Ohio-Southern system direct connection over its own tracks with the Municipal Wharves. It will give the Louisville & Nashville connection therewith over a 700-foot track of the Mobile & Ohio-Southern system, between the Louisville & 1 Not printed. 1028 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Nashville Wharf and the Municipal Wharves, and will give the Gulf, Mobile & North- ern a connection there with over about a mile of track of the Louisville & Nashville. At the time the Government took over the railroads the city had entirely satisfactory and very low switching and interchange arrangements with the various railroads. In a word the trackage facilities now in existence for the Municipal Wharves and to be constructed for the Arlington Municipal Pier are ample for economical and expedi- tious interchange of railroad and ocean traffic. HIGHWAY CONNECTIONS. The Municipal Wharves are connected with all railroad freight terminals by modern hard-surface pavements on concrete foundations. The Arlington Municipal Pier is connected with the central paving system of the city by macadam thoroughfares ample for present needs and easily transformed into hard-surface paved streets when the need therefor develops. Very truly, yours, WRIGHT SMITH, City Engineer. The DISTRICT ENGINEER OFFICER, United States Engineer Office, Mobile, Ala. The contract for the dredging of the Arlington Municipal Pier project was let on May 16, 1919, to Atlantic, Gulf & Pacific Co. for 10.9 cents per cubic yard. Actual dredging began June 6, 1919, and on June 30, 1919, the project was well under way, about 25 per cent of the dredging having been completed. General interest in improvement of terminal facilities.—The past few years has shown an increased interest in the improvement of terminals by all interests concerned in commerce. - The Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad has prepared plans for the entire reconstruction of its property at Choctaw Point at the mouth of Mobile River. The construction of piers and dredging slips will more than double the present capacity for handling cargo and the construction of modern warehouses is expected to give an efficient system of modern terminals. These improvements will probably be commenced during the present year. - The Louisville & Nashville Railroad has completed the reconstruc- tion of its wharf between Government and Eslava Streets during the past year. This wharf was destroyed by storm several years ago and the reconstruction has replaced about 1,500 feet of wharfage that had been in unserviceable condition for over two years. A new coal hoist has also been built by this railroad on its property below the foot of Charleston Street. This was placed in commission during the present year and has made a large improvement in the coaling facilities of the port. During the past year the Mobile & Ohio Railroad has rebuilt its grain elevator which is located opposite its Pier No. 7 and which had been allowed through lack of usage and repair to become unservice- able, and has installed facilities for handling grain between this elevator and ship side. Among the private interests the largest development has been by the companies engaged in the repair of ships. The Alabama Dry Dock & Shipbuilding Co. has under construction a floating dry dock with a capacity for handling vessels up to 10,000 tons. This will be completed during the present year. The Henderson Shipbuilding Co. has constructed and placed in commission during the past year a modern end haul marine rail way with a capacity for hº VGS- sels up to 3,000 tons. Both of the above are located on Pinto Island on the east side of Mobile River and have been built by the aid of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1029 The Kelly Shipbuilding Co. has under construction an end haul marine railway that will have a capacity for handling vessels up to approximately 1,600 tons. It is located on Blakely Island on the east side of Mobile River and will be completed during the present year. The company expects to install all the necessary machinery for making this a modern repair yard. The Texas Oil Co. has acquired property at the foot of Virginia Street on the west side of Mobile River. Its plans provide for a pier for handling oil in bulk and for storage tanks for their products and for handling from ship side to storage. They expect to make this a distributing center for fuel oil, there being only small facilities in existence at the present time for handling this product. During the year 1915 a firm of consulting engineers engaged by the city made a survey of the port for its development. This report by Ford, Bacon, and Davis is dated January 16, 1916. - The State harbor commission has recently engaged an engineer to make a complete survey and report of the harbor with recommenda- tions for the development of the port by the State. The report is to be submitted to the State legislature during the present year. Efforts made to utilize existing navigation facilities.—Regular sailings to Europe and the Latin-American countries are maintained from this port by a number of steamship lines. During the period of hostilities these were greatly curtailed and in some instances discon- tinued, but are being gradually reestablished. The Munson Line maintains monthly sailings to Buenos Aires, Argentiné. Republic, and weekly sailings to Habana, Cuba, with semimonthly service to other Cuban ports depending on the amount of cargo. The Mallory Steamship Line was discontinued during February, 1919, and reestablished during the month of June following. This company operates a freight and passenger service with weekly sailings to New York, touching at Tampa, Fla. The Maclay Line has a monthly schedule between this port and Glasgow, Scotland, and the Leyland and Harrison Lines operate to Liverpool, England, on a semimonthly schedule. The United Fruit Co. operates to various Central American ports. At the present time about four sailings per week are maintained, but this is greatly in excess of the usual schedule from this port. The ports of call for its vessels are dependent on cargo. The United States Shipping Board has arranged to inaugurate a freight service between Mobile and the west coast of South America via the Panama Canal. This service is scheduled to begin during the month of August and will be continued monthly thereafter. If there is sufficient cargo to warrant additional ships the number will later be increased. In addition to the above, tramp steamers are chartered whenever cargo is obtained for any port not touched by the regular lines. The Warrior River section of the Mississippi-Warrior waterways is operating a fleet of stern-wheel steamers . Mobile and the ''. coal fields on the Warrior River, and additional steamers and barges are to be added to this fleet as rapidly as construction now under way is º A fleet of self-propelled barges is also operated between the coal fields and New Orleans. Return cargo of F. freight will be carried, Steel containers for facilitating the andling of this class of freight are being installed. These containers have a capacity of 15 tons and are designed.to be loaded on shore in 1030 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. advance of the arrival of the towboat, then to be placed on barge by power derrick, thus greatly decreasing the time required for loading and unloading. Loss of and damage to goods will also be reduced by this method. The city of Mobile is making arrangements to place a stationary derrick on the municipal wharf for handling these containers between the wharf and barges as soon as sufficient containers have been built to warrant the expense. No storage space has been provided for the coal brought by water. A wharf formerly used by the Hunter-Benn Lumber Co. is used for tying up the barges until such time as a market is obtained, when the barges are unloaded by derrick. A joint rail-and-water rate has lecently been put in effect by the United States Railroad Adminis- tration at a considerable reduction from the former rates, and this will have a stimulating effect on the traffic and open an outlet for a greater number of mines which formerly depended entirely on rail shipments. The fleet of self-propelled barges which was taken over by the United States Railroad Administration and which were formerly operated by the Alabama & New Orleans Transportation Co. has been engaged for several years in carrying coal to New Orleans and mis- cellaneous freight on the return trip. The amount of coal carried during 1918, which was smaller than the average for several years past, was slightly over 24,000 tons, of which about 25 per cent was transferred at Mobile and the remainder brought directly from the mines. The coal that was transferred at Mooile was brought from the mines on river barges and transferred by derrick. Mobile is the logical port for the Warrior River system for trans- ferring coal and manufactured products brought by water from the Birmingham district. This city, being the only seaport in the State, offers not only the shortest haul but a well-protected harbor, where the tiver type of vessel can safely bring the cargo without exposure to storms. Ample frontage is available for constructing terminals along the east side of Mobile River or, if rail connection is desired, the . ºnk of the river will allow for any development that will be Ilê6O1CO1. Joint rail-and-water terminals.--All of the railroad docks, the mu- nicipal wharf, and the Turner Terminal Co. property, which combined handle almost the entice commerce of the port, are provided with ample track facilities for delivering cargo, either to the warehouses or direct to shipside, or for handling freight in the reverse order. In addition to these, some of the smaller and less important wharves have connection through spur tracks, and those without such con- nection handle either a very small traffic or freight of a nature that does not require rail connection. The plans for the municipal pier now under construction provide for tracks to all parts of the pier wherever necessary, either for storage or for ãº, alongside the ships at dock. - While the existing and proposed rail connections constituting a belt-line system are physically adequate for all commerce that may be expected in the near future, the relations between the railroads and the public harmonious, and rates for interswitching very reasonable, it is believed that steps should be taken to provide that the belt-line system be ultimately owned or controlled by the State or municipality or by a jºint board on which the representatives of the public will be in control. sº WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1031 Cogling facilities.—Facilities for transferring coal from cars to vessels are provided by the Louisville & Nashville Railroad and the Southern Railway. The former are located on the property of the railroad at the foot of Charleston Street and were completed during the past year. The hoist of the Southern Railway is located on its Pier No. 5. The Mobile Coal Co. has a small chute for handling coal from cars to barges and for coaling tug boats. It is reserved for rivate use. These tipples have a capacity of about 650 tons per our from cars to vessels. They usually foºd to barges in which coal is conveyed to shipside. For bunkering vessels, derrick barges are provided by several companies. Steam is used for the motive power, and the handling is done by clamshell buckets and bucket conveyors. The Mobile Coal Co. has two barges in service, each with a capacity of 60 tons per hour; the Gulf Coal Co. operates two barges, each with a capacity of 50 tons per hour; the Zimmern Coal Co. has two barges, each with a capacity of 50 tons per hour; and the Pratt Consolidated Coal Co. has one derrick barge of 50 tons per hour capacity and a collier of 125 tons per hour capacity. The bunkering capacity of the total floating equipment of all companies is about 500 tons per hour. Repair facilities.—Ample facilities are provided for repair, and these will be increased during the present year by the completion of repair docks previously described. The Alabama Dry Dock & Shipbuilding Co., in addition to the floating dry dock under construction, have a number of smaller docks now in commission. These facilities consist of a floating dock of timber construction capable of handling vessels up to 4,000 tons and a sectional dock of timber construction for vessels up to 1,000 tons, all of which are located on Pinto Island on the east side of the river. The company also operates two marine railways of timber construction on its property at the foot of Elmira Street. The larger of these has a capacity of 1,300 tons and the smaller of 300 tons. Both are of the end-haul type. A total of seven docks will be in commission during the present year, ranging from 300 to 10,000 tons capacity, or an increase of almost 200 per cent over the handling capacity a year ago when present construction commenced. This total includes the 1,600-ton dock of the Kelly Shipbuilding Co., under construction, and the 2,500-ton dock of the Henderson Shipbuilding Co. Storage facilities.—Foreign trade requires storage space for the accumulation of cargo for export and to act as a reservoir to hold import freight until the railroads are enabled to forward the commodi- ties to destination. This does not hold for bananas, which constitute about 25 per cent of the imports, and which, on account of their perishable nature, are not held in storage but loaded directly into cars for shipment to the interior. All of the warehouses in existence at Mobile are located on the piers and wharves, and are adjacent to the ships when taking cargo. This requires only a short distance for transfer of freight, with a tendency to rapid hº The floor area, however, is not sufficient to allow goods to be held in storage for any length of time without causing congestion and consequent interference with the movement of freight. Additional space is needed, and this will become more apparent if there should be an increase in the class of traffic that can 1032 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. not be held in open storage. Warehouse space that is planned for the proposed municipal pier will relieve. the present shortage of storage facilities. A summary of the storage space available at this port is as follows: Area in Owner. Location. S^UI are feet.

This is located a short distance from the waterfront and convenient to all the terminals. Mechanical appliances.—The Tºrner Terminal Co. has a locomotive crane, steam operated, for handling the heavier articles of freight passing over its docks. It has a capacity of about 7 tons. The United Fruit Co. maintains three conveyors for unloading frºit at the Louisville & Nashville Railroad and Mobile & Ohio Railroad wharves. Each conveyor is a separate, independent unit, electrically operated by a 15 horsepower, 3-phase motor. They run on tracks under their own power to allow placing them at any point along the wharf. The machinery consists of a canvas apron attached to crossbars which are fastened to a chain on either side. The canvas forms a pocket in which the bananas are placed and after being elevated from the hold are transferred to the deck of the wharf. The pockets adjust themselves to direction of travel and handle the fri it without injury, the power being applied to the chain on either side. The conveyor is adjustable vertically to the depth of the hold and each conveyor has a capacity of 42 bunches of bananas per minute. This type of machine is considered very efficient but the bananas are moved by hand from the conveyor to cars, the machine being used only for unloading from the ship's hold to deck of wharf. The use of hand labor is due partly to the necessity for sorting the fruit as it is placed in cars. - At Pier No. 3 owned jointly by the Mobile & Ohio Railroad and the Southern Railway an electrically operated freight conveyor of 5 horsepower is in use for transferring freight between the first and second floors. The company states that the freight is handled at a cost of 2 cents per ton. A duplicate of this equipment is operated at Pier No. 8 of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad. *; Pier No. 6 of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad and Southern Railway is equipped with a pipe for unloading molasses from vessels. A short distance to the west of this pier, two tanks have been built for storing the molasses which is used for manufacturing feed for cattle. Each of these tanks has a storage capacity of 2,000,000 gallons. The molasses is brought in by steamers which discharge their cargo WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1033 through a 10-inch pipe line laid along the pier, the capacity for handling depending on the steamer which does the pumping. The molasses is shipped to destination in tank cars which are loaded at the rate of 4 cars or approximately 64,000 gallons per hour. The gº part of this material is consigned to points in the vicinity of St. Louis. Pier No. 7 of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad is used for unloading grain into ships and is connected with a grain elevator immediately west of the pier by an overhead inclosed conveyor 650 feet long on timber foundation which extends to the outer end of the pier. The elevator is 106 feet long, 56 feet wide, and 131 feet 6 inches from level of track to peak of roof. It is of mill construction with corrugated iron sides. The machinery is of modern type, electrically driven throughout and all parts can be operated independently of each other. Ther are two tracks running beneath the bins for receiving grain from cars to elevators; three elevators for distributing to bins and 36-inch rubber belt, which has a travel speed of 1,000 feet per minute, for handling the grain to the dock. Other facilities are Scales, two wheat separators, and oat clipper, sacking machine, power shovels, car movers, and dryer. Only one cargo of grain, consisting of 200,000 bushels of wheat and corn, was handled during the past year. Grain for export when handled in bulk from cars into vessels at the dock through the elevator is assessed 1 cent per bushel for corn, wheat, barley, or rye, and three-fourths cent per bushel for oats. After the first 20 calendar days, for which there is no charge, storage is assessed one-eighth cent per bushel for each period of five calendar days or fraction. Storage time is computed from the date of arrival of car at Mobile and any free time consumed while in cars on track is deducted from the allowance of free time for elevator storage. A charge of one-fourth cent per bushel is made for cleaning, cool- ing, blowing, screening, clipping, mixing, or turning, and 1 cent per bushel for scouring or smutting. Charges for drying are 14 cents and 2 cents per bushel, in accordance with the grade, and 4 cents per bushel on salvage or other unmerchantable grain. Peas and beans are dried at a price of 6 cents per bushel. For separating a mixture of two kinds of grain or foreign substance, a charge of 1 cent per bushel is made, and the loss in weight assessed against the owner of the grain. Grain delivered locally to the elevator is assossed at the rate of $6 per car, while bulk or sacked grain loaded at the elevator into cars for domestic delive y is charged at the rate of $2 per day. Carload lots received in sacks are unloaded into the elevator at a price of one-half cent per bushel, which includes the labor of empty- ing and baling the empty sacks. Weighing grain is charged for at the rate of 25 cents per 1,000 bushels in carload lots, or 50 cents per 1,000 bushels in smaller lots. The Gulf Refining Co. handles oil from barges to its storage tanks through a 4-inch pipe line by two rotary pumps operated by 10- ºver engines. The unloading capacity is about 200 barrels per nour. Appliances for handling special commodities are amply provided, but for the general classes of freight additional facilities are needed. Package and miscellaneous freight is now moved by hand, and for economy as well as rapidity this should be replaced by electrically operated trucks and trailels for transferring freight to or from the 1034 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. ship's side. A system of conveyors and stackers would take care of the traffic of the river boats, but this would not be needed if trucks are provided. The foregoing comments apply also to the Turner Terminal Docks and to the docks of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad and Southern Railway, and to the Arlington project now under con- sideration. Speed of loading and unloading.—The time of loading or discharg— ing cargo is dependent on the commödity handled. For instance, a vessel can be loaded with cotton much more rapidly than with lumber or timber. The record of dispatch of steamers handled by Mobile Liners (Inc.), agents for several lines engaged in the European trade, is as follows: º * Number | Average º Year ending— of tons * steamers. loaded. g -> September, 1914-----------------------------------------------. 52 2,568 || 7 days 5 hours.

Banana cargoes are unloaded on an average time of six hours, a ship making about 40 carloads, or about 400 tons of freight, the average weight of a car of bananas being only about 10 tons. A description of the more important facilities with warehouse space follows. The Turner Terminal Co., whose property is located on the west side of Mobile River at the foot of Maryland Street, has dredged a slip whose length is 1,675 feet on the south side and 1,540 feet on the north side, with a width of 205 feet throughout. This is the largest of the privately owned terminals at this port. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1035 A warehouse extends along the north side of the pier with a width of 125 feet for a length of 960 feet and a width of 62% feet over a length of 280 feet, with a total floor area of 137,500 square feet. This warehouse with concrete foundation supported on piling has a steel frame with galvanized-iron sides and is divided into compart- ments by brick fire walls. It is open to the public on equal terms upon the payment of wharfage on goods passing over the wharf in accordance with the following schedule which has been in effect since January 1, 1918: Tariff No. 5. - Cents per 100 pounds.

The wharf of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. on the west side of Mobile River, extending from the foot of Government Street south a distance of 1,500 feet, is of timber with pile foundation. It is used primarily for handling tropical fruits, but is open for any other cargo when not used for this purpose.

The above charges do not apply on traffic via river or bay except on lumber arriving at Mobile via the Louisville & Nashville Rail- road and destined to points on Mobile River and Bay. Minimum charge on single shipments is 25 cents. There is a shed on this wharf with open sides and without floor having an area of 16,985 square feet for protection of fruit while loading and a banana ware- house with wooden floor having a floor area of 4,800 square feet. The Mobile & Ohio Railroad and. Southern Railway jointly own and operate eight piers and wharves on the west side of Mobile River, all of which are of timber with pile foundation. A description of these will be given in the order of their numbers. Pier No. 1 is a wharf which is located between Government and Dauphin Streets, with a length of 770 feet, and is reserved for the handling of tropical fruits and for assembling freight to be shipped on the fruit steamers. There is a two-storv warehouse of timber with sheet-iron sides 80 feet wide and the full length of the wharf, 1036 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. with a floor area of 122,400 square feet. The second floor is occupied by offices and the ground floor by tracks for placing refrigerator cars to receive fruits unloaded from the vessels. These cars when loaded are immediately made up into trains for forwarding to the interior. The wharf known as pier 2 has a length of 520 feet parallel to the river and 450 feet along an inclined slip. A cotton warehouse with a width of 120.6 feet occupies a length of 610 feet, and has a floor area of 73,566 square feet. This warehouse is of timber with concrete floor. No mechanical appliances for handling freight are located on this wharf. A fertilizer warehouse, 340 by 75 feet, has been built a short distance to the west of this pier. It is built of brick, but has no direct connection with the wharf. Pier 3, formed by dredging a slip on either side, has a length of 440 feet on the south side, 400 feet on the north side, and 350 feet along the river, and has a two-story warehouse trapezoidal in shape with a floor area of 105,000 square feet occupying the greater portion of the pier. The warehouse has timber frame, sheathed with asbestos, and has a concrete floor over the first story. A depressed track extends through the warehouse, bringing the floor of the car to approximately the same elevation as the floor of the warehouse. Pier 4 is 395 feet long on the south side, 405 feet on the north, and 178 feet wide, and is formed by dredging a slip on either side. A one-story warehouse 375 feet long and 108 feet wide, with a floor area of 40,500 square feet, occupies the greater portion of the pier. It is of timber covered with sheet iron and has two depressed tracks extending through it. There are no mechanical appliances. Pier 5, which is 131 feet wide, has a length of 405 feet on the south side and 347 feet on the north. It has been formed by dredging a slip on either side. The south side of this pier has a one-stor wooden warehouse located on it 360 feet long and 38 feet wide. F. has a floor area of 13,680 square feet. The coal hoist, which has been described in a previous portion of this report, occupies the north portion of this pier. - Pier 6 has a length of 330 feet on the south side and 430 feet on the north, and a width of 140 feet with a dredged slip on each side. A one-story warehouse of timber frame and sheet-iron sheathing having a length of 470 feet and width of 105 feet, with a floor area of 49,350 square feet, constitutes the storage space. Pier 7 has a length of 435 feet on the south, 440 feet on the north, and a width of 90 feet, and has a slip dredged on each side. This pier is used in connection with the elevator for handling grain. Pier 8 is 445 feet long on the south side, 425 feet on the north side, and has a width of 150 feet with a slip on each side. A double- story warehouse 495 feet long and 90 feet wide framed with timber and covered with sheet-iron occupies the greater portion of the pier. It has a floor area of 90,100 square feet. Some of these piers have been designated for the use of certain lines with regular sailings with a view to expediting the handling of cargo and for the accumulation of freight, but this is not strictly adhered to, and they are open to other carriers whenever such use does not interfere with the dockage of those vessels for which freight has been accumulated. The larger portion of the export traffic through this port is handled over the wharves of these companies. They are open to the public on equal terms, and the wharfage charge on goods passing over the WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1037 piers is three-fourths cent per 100 pounds on all freight, except cotton, which is 4 cents per bale. There are no dockage charges against the vessels. The wharfage charges of the Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad and of the Alabama, Tennessee & Northern Railroad are the same as those of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad and the Southern Railway. The Gulf Refining Co., which is located on the west side of the river just below Chickasaw Creek, has storage capacity for 30,000 barrels of oil and 5 filling tanks for supplying vessels alongside their pier, 2 of which have capacity for 500 barrels each and 3 for 600 barrels each. The municipal wharf, which is of timber on piling, located between Dauphin and St. Anthony Streets, has a modern warehouse with steel frame and sheet-iron sides. This warehouse has a length of 1,240 feet and a width of 100 feet and is paved with concrete. It has a floor area of 124,000 square feet. Spur tracks run along each side, but there are no mechanical appliances for facilitating the handling of cargo. This wharf is used by all boats engaged in bay and liver traffic, which constitutes the largest portion of the business handled. Seagoing vessels use it to some extent. It is open to all on equal terms and a wharfage charge is made on goods passing over it. The coal hoist of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, which is built of creosoted timber, occupies a space about 40 by 70 feet and 110 feet high. Coal brought in on cars is switched to an elevated trestle, from which it is dumped to hoppers beneath. A continuous conveyor elevates the coal in buckets to the chutes for loading directly to barges. There are two units, each capable of handling a car of coal every 15 minutes, the capacity being 400 tons per hour for the plant. The chutes are capable of ve tical adjustment of 36 feet and have a horizontal sway of 25 feet, and the plant is electrically driven. No coal is handled except that which is brought in Over the road of the owner, for which there is no charge. The coal hoist of the Southern Railway is constructed of timber on creosoted piling, and was rebuilt about two years ago. It occupies a space about 30 by 120 feet in plan and has a height of about 60 feet above mean low water. Coal is switched on cars to an elevated trestle and then dumped to hoppers underneath, from which K. it is elevated by continuous conveyors with buckets to the chutes and loaded to barges. The chutes have a vertical adjustment of about 35 feet, but no horizontal swing. There is only one unit, capable of handling one car at a time and has a loading capacity of 100 tons per hour when loading steam coal. The capacity is as low as 30 tons per hour when handling lump coal. No storage capacity is provided. The plant is operated by steam from a boiler house adjoining the chute. When handled through the coal hoists there is no charge for loading coal. For bunke.ing in the channel or at the loading pier the cost is $1.35 per ton, which includes towing and handling. For this purpose a number of coal companies have barges with derrick or conveyors for transferring directly from the barges to the ship's bunkers. This method is efficient, as vessels are enabled to fill their bunkers without delay while taking on cargo. 1038 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. This locality is not affected by floods and the variation in tide is small, as is usual on the Gulf coast, and offers no difficulties in the design of terminals. The usual construction is to build a wharf on piling with wooden deck from 10 to 30 feet wide, and back of this drive solid walls of round or sheet piling and fill in with earth or material dredged from the surrounding bottom. The deck of the wharf is generally about 6 or 8 feet above mean low water. Some of the less important docks which enter into the commer- cial uses of the port are summed up below. The Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad traverses a territory that is rich in pine forests and taps some of the best tracts of timber in existence in the State of Mississippi. Although the commerce handled over their present terminals is small, the reconstruction of their property will add a great deal of commerce to the port and the extension of the road to connect with the Burlington system will open a large territory to the north and west for foreign trade. The Texas Co. will be in position to supply fuel oil as well as refined oils in large quantities by the end of the present year when its prop- erty, which is now being improved, will be made a distributing station for the territory tributary to Mobile. The Alabama, Tennesssee & Northern Railroad handles but little commerce through the port, and its terminals are in poor condition. The principal commodity handled is crossties. - The Blacksher Co. furnishes a large quantity of lumber and timber for export, but practically the entire output of the plant is lightered to vessels berthed in various parts of the port. The Gulf Coal Co. handles bunker coal and its dock, which is in poor condition, is used for storage purposes, the coal being lightered to vessels. The Republic Creosoting Co., whose dock consists of a pile trestle extending into the river, uses the property for receiving timber by raft or on barges and also for shipping creosoted products by barge. The Richards Building Material Co. uses the wharf on its frontage for delivery and for receipt of building materials by barge or small vessels. The wharf is also used by the United States quartermaster at º: Morgan, under lease for the vessel plying between the city and fort. The Star Fish & Oyster Co. wharf and the Mobile Fish & Oyster Co. wharf are used for receiving fish, oysters, and other sea foods, a large }.” of which are shipped by rail to interior points. Melons and ruits are also handled over these docks during the summer months and general merchandise is carried on the return trips to the eastern shore of Mobile Bay and to Dauphin Island. The vessels using these docks are launches and small sailing vessels. - The Southern Fuel & Material Co. handles principally sand and gravel over their docks. This material is brought by barge from the rivers above Mobile. The concrete shipyard of the Emergency Fleet Corporation recently launched a 7,500-ton barge and an additional vessel of the same type is under construction. This property is well located with rail con- nection. It is not known what disposition will be made of this prop- erty by the United States Shipping Board when its program of con- struction is completed, but it would make a valuable addition to the ort facilities if used for commercial purposes. It is in close prox- imity to the municipal wharf now under construction. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1039 The wharf of the Alabama Dry Dock & Shipbuilding Co. is used for repairing the machinery of vessels. It is convenient to their foun- dry and machine shop and the pipe-fitting department is located on the wharf. This company has additional river frontage which was used for building mine sweepers for the United States Navy. The Murman Shipbuilding Co. is engaged in building barges for the Mississippi-Warrior Waterways. When construction is completed this company will probably enter into the ship-repair business, although no docking facilities are available on their property at the resent. - The Mobile Shipbuilding Co. is engaggd in building steel and com- osite vessels. This company expects to enter the ship-repair |UISII).0SS. CHANNEL BETWEEN MOBILE BAY AND MISSISSIPPI SOUND. The existing project for this improvement provides for a channel 100 feet wide, 10 feet deep, and about 4.1 miles long, and extends from the 84-foot contour in Mississippi Sound to the 10-foot contour in Mobile Bay. It is a connecting waterway between Mobile Bay on the east and Mississippi Sound on the west, and passes through the shoal waters extending from the mainland of Alabama to Dauphin Island, the easterly one of a series of islands separating Mississippi Sound from the Gulf of Mexico. Protection is afforded by Dauphin Island immediately to the south as well as by the shoal waters through which the channel has been dredged. The locality is tidal with an average range of 1.2 feet. The commerce during the calendar year 1918 amounted to 59,088 short tons, of which about 48 per cent consisted of coal which origi- nated in the Alabama coal fields for delivery at New Orleans, and 37 per cent consisted of lumber and timber from points in Mississippi destined to Mobile. The territory served extended from New Orleans on the west to Mobile Bay and tributaries on the east, and included all intermediate points on the coast of Mississippi. The vessels engaged in carrying this commerce consisted of barges, some of which are self-propelled, º and small sailing craft with a maximum draft of about 8 feet. There are no terminals at this locality. A spur of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad terminates on the mainland of Alabama about 1% miles to the north, but there is no interchange of freight between this rail- road and the water carriers, nor is there sufficient water to permit such interchange. The improvement is considered ample for the present and prospective needs of commerce. This channel forms the shortest route between Mobile Bay and oints to the westward and affords protection from the Gulf of º, for the smaller vessels engaged in coastwise commerce. Ad- vantage is taken of this protected route by all vessels where the draft is sufficiently light to use the channel. - No terminals are needed, as the dredged channel is a connecting waterway between Mobile Bay and Mississippi Sound, and all com- merce is handled between points to the east and to the west of the improvement. w 1040 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. BLACK WARRIOR, WARRIOR, AND TOMBIGBEE RIVERs, ALA. Location and description.—The above names apply to what is vir- tually a single stream, having its source in northern Alabama, flow- ing in a general southwesterly direction and uniting with the Alabama River to form the Mobile River 45 miles above Mobile Bay. The total length of the stream from the junction of the Mulberry and Locust Forks to the mouth is 362% miles. The improvement extends from Sanders Ferry, on the Mulberry Fork of the Black Warrior River, and Nichols Shoal, on the Locust Fork, respectively, 36 and 16 miles above their juncture, to the mouth. The total length of slack water is 332% miles from Lock No. 1 on the Tombigbee River to Sanders Ferry on the Mulberry Fork, and 16 miles on the Locust Fork above its junction with Mulberry Fork. From Lock No. 1 to Mº Ala., a distance of 111 miles, an open river channel is main- tained. The existing project is virtually the original one, except that the length of the improvement has been extended. It provides for a channel 6 feet deep at low water all the year around from Mobile, Ala., to Sanders Ferry on the Mulberry Fork of the Black Warrior River, and to Nichols Shoal on the Locust Fork of the Black War- rior River, by the construction of 17 dams and 18 locks, the extra lock being at Dam No. 17, where the lift of 63 feet is equally divided between two locks in tandem, and for such dredging and clearing of the channel as might be necessary after the completion of the dams. The distance from Mobile to the upper limits of the 6-foot channel is 44.3% miles to Sanders Ferry on the Mulberry Fork, and 423% miles to Nichols Shoal on the Locust Fork. Commerce.—The commerce during 1918 amounted to 671,405 short tons, of which 13 per cent was coal, 58 per cent logs and lumber, and the remainder was miscellaneous, of which commissary supplies and machinery formed the most valuable items. Of the 69,690 short tons of coal transported by river from the Alabama coal fields, 17,562 tons were shipped to New Orleans, La., either direct or transferred to other boats at Mobile, Ala. The boats engaged in carrying this commerce were packet steamers with a maximum draft of 5 feet, self-propelled steel barges with a maximum draft of 6 feet, barges in tow of tugs with a maximum draft of 7 feet, and stern-wheel tow- boats and barges with a maximum draft of 7 feet.

Terminal and transfer facilities.—At present there are in existence and operation eight terminals of commercial importance, five being coal-loading stations owned and operated by the De Bardeleben Coal WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1041 Co. at Cordova, Ala., and Payne Bend, Ala., Franklin Coal Mining Co. at Short Creek, Ala., Pratt Consolidated Coal Co. at Maxine, Ala., and Blair Coal Mining Co. at Tuscaloosa, Ala.; one privately owned wharf, slip, and railroad ferry, that of the Alabama Power Co., at Gorgas, Ala.; one wharf for public use, owned by the city of Tusca- loosa, Ala.; and one transfer station owned by John C. Webb & Sons at Demopolis, Ala. In addition to the above numerous small pri- vately-owned warehouses are in operation along the entire river at the various towns and plantations. No facilities are available for the transfer of freight from boat at the various coal-loading stations, although a spur line connects the De Bardeleben Coal Co.'s loading station at Cordova to the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad. - The Alabama Power Co.'s wharf at Gorgas, Ala., for private use only, is connected with the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad by . track, cars and supplies being taken across the river by a railroad erry. - The city of Tuscaloosa's wharf at Tuscaloosa, formerly owned by the Tuscaloosa Railway & Utilities Co., is connected by electric- railway line with four different railroads. A transfer charge of $5 per car is made, both to the business district of Tuscaloosa and to tracks of other railroads, all freight being handled by hand. The transfer station at Demopolis, Ala., owned and operated by John C. Webb & Sons, has no railroad connection. sº Adequacy of terminals.-The coal-loading stations of the De Barde- leben Coal Co. at Cordova and that of the Franklin Mining Co. at Short Creek, Ala., are adequate for the present and prospective requirements. The remaining three are not adequate as they load direct from the mine cars with chutes, causing delay in loading, thereby increasing the cost of transportation. A storage of at least 2,000 tons capacity should be had at each station to facilitate the loading and quick dispatch of boats. The contour of the river banks at the coal-loading station is such as to allow the construction of pocket storage bins, parallel to river bank, with gravity chutes for loading at all stages of river. In this manner the cost attached to loading any type of river barge or steamer will be reduced to a mini- mum. The above bins should follow the general plans of the iron Ore docks in northern Michigan ports. - The Demopolis transfer station at Demopolis, Ala., although suit- able for the present commerce, is not of the desirable type and is not adequate for the prospective commerce, as all freight must be handled by hand from boat to cars and from cars to boat. Package freight and feeds in this manner may be handled economically, but as there are no other mechanical appliances in operation the handling of heavy material necessarily delays the unloading and clearing of boats. Administration, tariffs, etc.—There are published rules and regula- tions governing the use, administration, and navigation of the locks on the Black Warrior, Warrior, and Tombigbee Rivers, tariffs estab- lished by the Alabama Public Service Commission for the Alabama and lower and upper Tombigbee Rivers and tributaries, and freight tariffs, showing local and proportioned rates on coal from mines and loading points on the Warrior and Tombigbee Rivers to New Orleans, Villere Front, and Violet, La. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—66 1042 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. General interest shown in the improvement.—The cities of Tusca- loosa and Birmingham are at present taking steps toward the con- struction of proper terminals, and have had surveys made of different locations. The city of Tuscaloosa, Ala., purchased the wharf formerly owned and operated for public use without wharfage charge by the Tusca- loosa Railway & Utilities Co., and has been granted permission to construct a municipal wharf of approximately 300 feet in length and a warehouse 70 by 100 feet, the freight to be handled by a 100-foot derrick with steam hoist. The Warrior River Development Committee of Birimingham, Ala., have shown keen interest in the shipping of iron ore, coke, etc. Tentative plans for the port of Birmingham have been submitted for suggestions and consideration. The plans cover railroad classifica- tion yards, warehouse, cotton shed, and bins for outbound ore and coke. A considerable portion of Short Creek will be utilized in con- nection with the proposed terminal, which will have railroad connec- tion with the Ensley-Southern Railroad. The Ensley-Southe n Rail- road is a short line, about 24 miles in length, and can be made to serve three or four small coal mines as well as the industries of the city of Birmingham. Detailed description.—The De Bardeleben Coal Co.'s loading sta- tion at Cordova, Ala., on the Mulberry Fork of the Warrior lêiver, consists of a pile trestle spanning the mouth of a creek, the coal being dumped from standard-gage railroad cars through the trestle into a hopper, and carried from hopper to barge by a steam-driven belt conveyor of 100 tons capacity per hour. Two rows of piling driven along the river bank make 300 feet of dockage available, the shifting of barges being done by cable and drum, power furnished by main steam plant. The absence of a storage bin makes it neces- sary to rely entirely on delivery of coal from the mines while the Vessel is being loaded. The coal is delivered over a spur line owned by the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad, a charge of 65 cents per ton being made from mine to loading station. The loading station is accessible by public highway in good condition. The Franklin coal-loading station at Short Creek, Ala., on the Locust Fork of the Warrior River, consists of a trestle and storage bins, normal to the bank and having a capacity of 1,500 tons. Two rows of piling driven along the river bank make 300 feet of dockage available, the shifting of barges being done by cable and drum, power furnished by main steam plant. The coal is dumped from mine cars through the trestle into the storage bias, and carried from bins to barges by a steam-driven belt conveyor of 125 tons canacity per hour. The river end of the belt conveyor can be elevated to suit all stages of river. The loading station is accessible by one ordinary wagon road in fair condition. The Payne Bend coal-loading station at Payne Bend, Ala., owned and operated by the De Bardeleben Coal Co., located on the Mul- berry Fork of the Warrior River, consists of a timber trestle, normal to the bank, supporting a wooden chute into which the coal from the mine is dumped. Two rows of piling driven along the bank below the chute makes 400 feet of dockage available. The absence of storage bins having mechanical or gravity loading facilities makes it necessary to rely entirely on delivery of coal from the mines, which WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1043 at its maximum is 75 tons per hour. Neither spur-line connection to a railroad nor highway connections exist at this station. The Blair Coal Mining Co.'s station, located 74 miles above Tusca- loosa on the Warrior River, consists of a small timber trestle normal to the bank, supporting a wooden chute into which the coal, direct from the mine, is dumped. There is no available dockage other than the mooring of barges to river bank. The absence of storage bins with mechanical or gravity loading equipment makes it neces- sary to rely entirely on delivery of coal from the mine, which at its maximum is but 50 tons per hour. A wagon road, in fair condition, connects this station with the public highway. No belt or spur line connection with local railroads exist. The Maxine coal-loading station near Maxine, Ala., on the Locust Fork of the Warrior River, which was also of an improvised type, has been dismantled to be replaced by a new one, but nothing has been constructed to date. - The city of Tuscaloosa issued bonds amounting to $50,000 cover- ing the cost of purchase of the Tuscaloosa Railway & Utilities Co.'s wharf and the erection of a more modern terminal. This terminal, which is located 3 miles above Tuscaloosa, consists of a steel stiff-leg and guyed derrick, having a 100-foot boom; a single-floor steel ware- house of 7,000 square feet floor area, with floor elevation of 37.64 feet above mean low water; and two lines of railroad track, one line running parallel to shore along river side of warehouse, and the second along land side of warehouse, with track elevated about 33.6 feet above mean low water. The unloading equipment, consisting of the steel derrick with 100-foot boom, the power being furnished by indi- vidual steam plant, is its only mechanical freight-handling device. The above spur tracks are connected to the four different railroads that enter the city. A pile bulkhead driven along the bank will furnish 400 feet of available dockage. For a terminal which is deemed especially efficient and economical for handling miscellaneous freight on the Black Warrior, Warrior, and Tombigbee River system, the following plan is submitted: A terminal consisting of a pile bulkhead; a warehouse of sheet steel on pile foundation, elevation 5 feet above high water, with con- Crete or wooden-block floor; an endless-chain conveyor designed to provide for adjustment to the different stages of river; a derrick or traveling crane for handling heavy freight; two sets of track, one along land side of warehouse for placing cars to be loaded or un- loaded at warehouse, and one along the river side of warehouse on a narrow covered dock about 4 feet above low water, supported by pile foundation, for direct loading from car to boats and boats to car during the low-water season. The idea is to erect the terminal in separate units, the number of units depending on the size of the community to be served and the extent to which the river is used for shipments. Each unit is to consist of a steel warehouse 50 feet wide and 150 feet long, with one conveyor and one derrick or travel- ing crane. - TOMBIGBEE RIVER, FROM DEMOPOLIS, ALA., TO WALKERS BRIDGE, MIss. The Tombigbee River joins the Alabama to form the Mobile River, 45 miles from Mobile Bay. Its length is about 503 miles, and ; length of the section from Demopolis to Walkers Bridge is 318 Iſll 16S. t 1044 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The existing project provides for a channel 6 feet deep at low water by snagging, tree cutting, bank revetment, the construction of locks and dams #. Demopolis to Columbus, 149 miles, and for a high- water channel by the removal of obstructions from Columbus to Walkers Bridge. No provision has as yet been made by Congress for lock and dam construction. The commerce during 1918 amounted to 28,349 short tons, of which 98 per cent consisted of logs, lumber, and staves, originating at the mills located along this section of river. This commerce was handled in rafts, and by towboats and barges with a maximum draft of 5 feet, and only during mean and high stages of river. There are no terminals along this river other than the usual log landings, the heaviest material being, loaded by floating derricks which accompany each tow, and the light material, such as staves and stave bolts, by improvised frame chutes fed by hand. There is no interchange in traffic from the railroads to the river boats. No terminals are needed, as the present and prospective commerce, which consists of logs, lumber, staves and stave bolts, can be no more economically handled than by the present methods. The facilities are considered ample for the present and prospective COIOIOleI’Cé. - º PASCAGOULA HARBOR, MISS. The existing project for this improvement provides for dredging a channel through Horn Island Pass 300 feet wide and not more than 25 feet deep and thence a depth not exceeding 22 feet with a width of 225 feet to the Louisville & Nashville Railroad bridge and with a width of 150 feet above this point to the upper end of the im- provement, 4 miles above the mouth of Dog River. The total commerce, during the calendar year 1918 amounted to 229,422 short tons of which 37,980 tons was foreign export and con- sisted of lumber and timber from the mills in this locality. The remainder of the tonnage handled, with the exception of about 50,000 tons of miscellaneous freight, consisted of forest products and was carried in steamers and sailing vessels with a maximum draft of about 18 feet and the coastwise commerce by tugs, barges and small sailing vessels whose draft was generally less than 9 feet. The harbor extends from the mouth of Pascagoula River to the upper end of the improvement a total length of about 9 miles. It is land-locked and is tidal throughout the entire length, the average range of tide being about 13 feet. Only a small portion of this length is occupied by wharves which are small and little used. The banks are generally low and marshy and would require filling before they could be utilized. The city of Pascagoula is located on the lower ortion of the improvement at the mouth of Pascagoula River, and oss Point is located on Dog River at the upper end of the harbor where the sawmills, which furnish the largest portion of the commerce, are located. They are connected by improved highways and by an electric street railway system. The city of Pascagoula has built a small wharf on the east side of Pascagoula River which is open to ublic use without charge. It is of light timber construction with a ength of 28 feet and is without rail connection. All other wharves are privately owned and only a few of these have connection with the railroads. With the exception of the wharf WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1045 of the Gulf Refining Co. and those of the shipyards, which are re- served for private use, all are open to the public without charge whenever this does not interfere with the business of the owners. All wharves are connected either by city streets or improved county highways. - tº a º . . The terminals are considered adequate for existing commerce or for any increase that may reasonably be expected within the next two years. Should future commerce necessitate additional construc- tion there is ample space for any extension to the existing facilities that would be ...} . . . . º Two railroads enter Pascagoula, the Louisville & Nashville, which traverses the Gulf coast and passes through the city, and the Ala- bama & Mississippi Railroad, which passes through Moss Point, has its terminus at Pascagoula. Considerable timber and a small amount of miscellaneous tonnage are brought in over these railroads and transferred to barges and rafts for export and local consumption. There is no switching charge on goods consigned to their wharves. The wharf of the Alabama & Mississippi Railroad is located at Moss Point and ship-side delivery can not be obtained at Pascagoula for freight coming in over this road. . This should be remedied and pro- vision made in the construction of the proposed municipal terminals. The laws for the administration of the port, º: charges and regu- lations are given in chapter 59, Annotated Code of 1892, laws of the State of Mississippi on pilotage. This provides for boards of pilot commissioners who j”. jurisdiction over the various harbors and passes. There are published rules and regulations for the control of pilots and pilot charges, etc. There are no wharfage or storage charges on freight. In addition to the municipal wharf at Pascagoula, previously described, the city has a frontage of 800 feet reserved for public landing, on which the wharf is located, and the town of Moss Point has donated a strip on Dog River with a frontage of about 1,100 feet for public use. The latter has no connection with the city streets, being on the opposite side of the river, and neither of them have rail connection. The city of Pascagoula is contemplating the improvement of its publicly-owned frontage of 800 feet by the construction of a wharf with loading facilities. The plans for this work have not been com- §: but it is expected that this will be done in the near future. odern equipment will be installed for loading and unloading all classes of freight and furnishing vessels with coal and water. Con- struction is expected to be completed within six months. Wharfage charges will cover maintenance and supervision. Rail connections and the acquisition of additional frontage are included in the pro- posed plans. All other new construction has been limited to the shipbuilding plants, but these wharves are reserved for private use and do not enter into the commercial facilities of the port. Since the construction of these shipyards the channel has been utilized for the purpose of bringing in material for the construction of the yards and ships in addition to its use for export trade. - No additional rail connections are considered necessary, as a large ortion of the lumber and timber—the principal commodities han- #.". brought in on barges or floated in rafts and loaded directl from along the ship's side, while that loaded at the site of the º -> is taken from storage along the river. 1046 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. There are no loading facilities. With the class of freight to be handled and the method of accumulating cargo, loading is done effectively by the vessels' tackle. There is a small coal hoist for sup- plying coal to tugboats engaged in coastwise commerce. Repairs to small vessels are made by two repair yards capable of handling the tugs engaged in carrying commerce, but larger vessels are compelled to seek other ports for having this work done, usually Mobile, where ample facilities for doing the work are available. This locality is not affected by floods, and the variation in the tide is so small that they need not be taken into consideration in the de- sign of wharves, which are usually built about 6 or 8 feet above water, with no allowance for variation in the water surface. The shipyards, with one exception, are all Emergency Fleet yards, engaged in the construction of wooden ships, for which all orders have recently been canceled. The future use of these yards is uncertain. The International Shipbuilding Co. has made plans for 24 ways, divided equally for the construction of wood and steel vessels. Sev- eral of the steel ships are now under construction, but none have been completed. . Of the wooden ships a few have been launched, but the yard as planned is only about 50 per cent completed. This company has built an industrial settlement on its property, with housing facilities for a majority of the workmen. They are of modern type, and the rental is based on the cost of the building. This company plans to continue the building of ships. The Louisville & Nashville Railroad has a pile trestle extending into the Pascagoula River with a length of about 60 feet. , t is located just above the bridge crossing the river and parallel to it and offers a means of interchange of freight between this road and water carriers. There is no wharfage charge and the use is limited to freight handled over the line of the owner. The Farnsworth Coal Co. has a wharf and coal hoist with a frontage of 145 feet on Pascagoula River, located just above the Louisville & Nashville Railroad trestle. This hoist has an electrically driven, endless-chain bucket conveyor, with a capacity for handling 40 tons of coal per hour. It has a storage capacity of 120 tons, and is used for coaling tugs. The Alabama & Mississippi Railroad maintains a wharf on Dog River at Moss Point. , t has a length of about 380 feet and is used for transferring freight between this road and water carriers. There are no wharfage charges. . The Gulf Refining Co. has constructed a wharf on Dog River ad- joining that of the Alabama & Mississippi Railroad. This is used as an oil-distributing depot for supplying oil in bulk to launches. Tanks have been erected with a capacity of 4: ,000 gallons. No warehouses exist for the storage of freight, and the commerce, which is principally forest products, does not require it. The municipal terminals, for which plans are now being prepared, will include warehouses to cover the needs of the future. The existing facilities are ample for the present needs of naviga- tion and the construction of the municipal wharf will take care of the future for a number of years. The United States boatyard at Pascagoula, Miss., is used for all United States floating plant engaged on harbor work in the Mobile WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 104.7 district. An end haul marine railway with a capacity of about 1,000 tons has been built. The Hodge Ship Co., the Dantzler Shipbuilding Co., and the Dierks-Blodgett Shipbuilding Co. have been engaged in building wooden ships for the Emergency Fleet Corporation. These contracts have all been canceled. * . GULFPORT HARBOR, MISS. The existing project for this improvement provides for dredging a channel 26 feet deep and 300 feet wide through Ship island Pass, connecting the Gulf of Mexico with the anchorage in Mississippi Sound at Ship sland, and a channel 19 feet deep and 300 feet wide from this anchorage to a basin 2,640 feet long, 1,320 feet wide, and 19 feet deep at Gulfport, and for securing such additional depth, not exceeding 23 feet, as may be obtained by the operation of a Government-owned dredge. The harbor, which is located on the south front of the city of Gulfport, consists of the basin mentioned above, with a pier built along the east side. This pier is of timber construction and earth fill, with an average width of 2:0 feet and a length of about 6,000 feet from the shore. The north side of the basin has been reclaimed by filling for a distance of about 1,400 feet out from the shore. A small pier on the west side of the basin completes the facilities of this port. These piers were built from the shore outward into Mississippi Sound and are exposed to storms. The only protection afforded to vessels is by the piers and fill. The locality is tidal, with a range of about 13 feet, as is usual on the Gulf coast. On the north side of the basin a shipyard is located, operated by the Gulfport Shipbuilding Co., which is engaged in the construction of sailing vessels and barges and affords accommodation for repair for small vessels. All of the facilities are the property of the Gulf & Ship island Railroad and spur tracks have been laid by this company to give access to any point on the piers. The portion occupied by the shipyard is leased from the owner, and a portion of the pier 200 feet long on the west side of the basin has been leased by the city of Gulfport as a public terminal. It is open to the public without charge. The main pier has connection with the city by street car and the city has built a road connecting the pier with the city streets. The commerce during 1918 amounted to 179,924 short tons, of which 88 per cent was lumber. The distribution of this commerce was as follows: s EXPORTS. Destination: Short tonS.

The foreign imports were consigned to points in the interior. All coastwise business was handled between points along the Gulf coast within a short radius of the port. There has been a gradual decrease in commerce since 1911, when it amounted to over 1,000,000 tons. The vessels engaged in carrying this commerce were steamers and sailing vessels with maximum draft of 21 feet in the foreign trade, and tugs, barges, and small craft with maximum draft of about 8 feet in the coastwise business. The present terminals are considered adequate for existing com- merce or for any increase likely to develop within the next five years. Lumber constitutes the principal business of the port, and the timber on which this business depends is rapidly being cut, while the dis- tance from the forests to the mills and the railroads is constantly increasing, so that the production will probably decline in the future. A large portion of the lumber and timber is brought in on barges and is handled from alongside the vessel while rail shipments are often stored in booms and towed to the vessel's side to be loaded. The present basin would allow for some expansion by the construction of additional piers extending into the basin if this should become necessary. The Gulfport Shipping Co. maintains a coal hoist on the pier, and this with the assistance of a locomotive crane offers fift: for bunkering ships. - - Water is supplied from an artesian well located on the pier with pipes leading a .# the entire wharf. A charge of one-fourth cent per gallon is made for its use. Charges for pilotage between the Gulf of Mexico and the basin at Gulfport in either #. are $4 per foot draft for vessels in foreign trade and $3 per foot draft for American vessels in coastwise trade. American vessels of 150 tons or less are not subject to compulsory Fº For shifting vessels from one berth to another within the arbor, there is no charge for the first shift, but a charge of $10 is made for each additional shift. Towing vessels from sea to Gulfport are charged at the rate of 10 cents per gross ton for sailing vessels when light and 25 cents per gross ton when loaded, and for assisting steamers which use their own ower, $25 for vessels under 1,000 tons and $50 for larger vessels. rom port to Ship Island or sea the charge is 25 cents per gross ton. Harbormaster's fees are $25 for each vessel. No wharfage is assessed against goods arriving by water and loaded from barge to vessel while anchored in basin, but a charge is made if the vessel is lying along the pier. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1049 There is no switching charge on goods received over the lines of the Gulf & Ship Island Railroad. A charge of 2 cents per 100 ounds, minimum weight 50,000 pounds per car, is made for switch- ing from the Louisville & Nashville Railroad to pier. On competi- tive traffic the Louisville & Nashville Railroad absorbs $3 of this charge on each car and the entire charge on goods shipped from New Orleans. . There are published rules governing the use of the Gulf & Ship Island Railroad Co.'s wharves, under which charges as follows will be assessed on shipments taken on vessels lying alongside wharf, when such shipments are loaded from water side of vessels: Cents Lumber and Sawn timber, per 1,000 feet b. m. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7% Crossties, per tie---------------------------- . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . # Cordwood, per cord - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 7% Barrels, empty, per barrel.--------------------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . # Box and barrel material, per 100 pounds... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . # Logs, poles, and hewn timber and piling, per 100 pounds. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . # There are also published general rules and regulations governing all traffic over the wharves and covering handling and storage charges. Chapter 36 of the laws of the State of Mississippi (Code, 1906) establishes jurisdiction of the port, and there are published rules for its government, adopted by the commission of Harrison County, in which Gulfport is located, and a city ordinance creating a board of port commissioners. No facilities exist for repair to vessels except those of small size engaged in the coastwise trade, the larger type being compelled to go to Mobile or New Orleans, where ample facilities exist. The harbor and the method of loading are considered efficient for the small amount of commerce handled. The locality is not affected by floods and the tides are small, so that fluctuation of the water surface does not enter into the design of terminals, which are built with the deck about 10 feet above mean low water. * re - The pier of the Gulf & Ship Island Railroad on the east side of the basin constitutes the principal terminal for handling cargo at this port. A modern warehouse has been built by the railroad near the outer end of the pier. It is a single-story structure of steel frame and sheet-iron sides on a concrete foundation, and has a length of 400 feet and width of 75 feet with a floor area of 30,000 square feet, and tracks have been laid on each side. There are no mechanical * but locomotive cranes are available for transferring reight. The coal hoist of the Gulfport Shipping Co. is electrically operated, with a capacity of 40 tons per hour. Coal is switched to a siding and dumped to a pit under the track, from which it is elevated by chain conveyor, with buckets to the tipple and dumped through chutes. Surrounding this pit there is a large open area for storing coal. A. º locomotive crane, with 60-foot boom carrying a clamshell bucket, is used for transferring coal from cars to the ship's bunkers, This has a loading capacity of about 55 tons per hour and enables ships to bunker without loss of time while taking cargo. - sº 1050 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Other mechanical appliances for handhing freight consist of a locomotive crane with a lifting capacity of 7% tons and a portable derrick mounted on a flat car with a lifting capacity of 3 tons, both of which are operated by steam. The American Sugar Refining Co. owns and maintains two tanks for storage of molasses, each having a capacity of 750,000 gallons. Molasses is pumped from the vessels through a pipe line to the tanks, from which it is ... into tank cars for shipment by rail. The pier on the west side of the basin is used principally for unload- ing timber dumped from cars by hand for storage in the booms. The Gulfport Shipbuildin Co. occupies the north side of the basin. LEAF AND CHICKASAHAY RIVERS, MISS. The Leaf and Chickasahay Rivers form the Pascagoula River at Merrill, Miss. - The existing project for the Leaf River provides for making a channel for high-water navigation by the removal of obstructions and overhanging trees, from Bowie Creek to the mouth of the river, a distance of 78.8 miles. All work is now applied to maintenance. The existing project for the Chickasahay River provides only for maintenance from the mouth to Buckatunna, about 75 miles, by the removal of logs, snags, and other obstructions, and is designed to keep the river in a navigable condition for rafting at high-water Stages. - #. commerce during 1918, amounting to 9,582 short tons for the Leaf River and 27,052 short tons for the Chickasahay River, con- sisted entirely of logs, piling, and crossties, all of which was rafted during mean and high stages of river. There are no terminals along these rivers and none are needed, as navigation is impracticable except for rafting at mean and high stages. PASCAGOULA RIVER, MISS. The Pascagoula River is formed by the confluence of the Leaf and Chickasahay Rivers near Merrill, in the southeastern part of Missis- sippi, and empties into the Mississippi Sound at Pascagoula. The section of the Pascagoula under improvement is 82.1 miles long from its source to the mouth of Dog River, 6.8 miles above the mouth of the Pascagoula River on Mississippi Sound. The existing project provides only for the maintenance of the channel above the mouth of Dog or Escatawpa River, a distance of 82.1 miles, by the removal of obstructions from time to time. The commerce during 1918, amounting to 274,112 short tons, con,- sisted of logs, lumber, piling, and crossties, which originated at the mills along this river and its tributaries, all of which was rafted. There are no terminals along this river and none are needed, as the limit of draft for loaded boats at low water is about three feet. The present navigation facilities are considered ample for present and prospective commerce. BILOXI HARBOR, MISS. The existing project for this improvement provides for dredging a channel 8 feet deep, 150 feet wide, and about 1% miles long connecting the deep water pocket on the south front of the city of Biloxi with Mississippi Sound. f WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1051 The area of water, between the peninsula on which the city of Biloxi is located and Deer Island forms an excellent harbor hearly landlocked, for vessels of light draft. This constitutes the principal portion of Biloxi Harbor, extending about 2% miles along the city front to the easternmost portion of the peninsula. A smaller portion of the commerce is handled on the Back Bay. The locality is tidal with an average range of tide a mounting to about 13 feet. The commerce during 1918 amounted to 27,212 short tons and about 67 per cent of this consisted of sea foods caught in the waters off the coast of Mississippi and Louisiana and which were used almost exclusively for canning purposes and shipped to interior points by rail. The rem-inder of the commerce, which w's principally forest products, was handled between ports on the Gulf coast, The vessels engaged in handling these products were lunches and Small sailing vessels and a few tugboats, with a mºximum dr. ft of about 7 feet. The harbor facilities consist of smºll piers and wherves of light timber construction. They are lyrgely filled in with shells from the canning industries. All are privately owned and built to serve the particular needs of the owners, the nºture of which does not require substantial construction. There are no port charges and the wharves are open to the public without charge whenever such use does not interfere with the business of the owners. There are no publicly owned terminals, and none are considered necessary, is the nature of the commerce does not demond publicly owned wharves. The Louisville & Nashville Railroad passes through Biloxi, but there is no rail connection with any of the wharves and none is con- sidered necessary. There is no interchange of traffic between rail and water. - - - • All of the terminals are reached by city streets, which are generally in good condition and built of shells. The wharves are considered ample for the present or prospective needs of commerce, and there is ºom for construction of additional facilities should they be IlêéCleOl. The city owns about 2 miles of frontage on the Back Bay which is unimproved. A short distance to the east of this property are located several repair yards capable of handling the small type of vessels engaged in the commerce of this port. The harbor is considered efficient for the nature of the business handled. There are no warehouses or sheds for the storage of cargo. Sea foods constitute the principal item of commerce, and these are un- loaded at the piers or wharves of the factories located along the beach. The factories supply storage for their immediate needs for canning purposes. Freight is moved in a few cases by hand-operated derricks, but in most cases by hand or trucks. wolf AND JORDAN RIVERs, MIss. The existing project for this improvement provides for dredging a channel through the bars at the mouths of these streams in St. Louis Bay, Miss., 7 feet deep and 100 feet wide. The dredged channel at the mouth of Wolf River is about 1.6 miles long, and at the mouth of Jordan River about 2 miles long. - - The locality offers a good harbor for vessels of small draft, being almost landlocked. The average range of tide is about 13 feet. During the calendar year 1918 the commerce amounted to 24,851 short tons, of which about 89 per cent consisted of forest products 1052 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. from the mills located on the streams above the improvement, ship- ment being made to ports on the Gulf coast. The vessels used in handling this commerce consisted of tugs, * and small sailing vessels with a maximum draft of about 7 eet. There are no terminals at this locality. The Louisville & Nash- ville Railroad crosses St. Louis Bay about 2% miles below the dredged channels and there is no interchange of traffic between rail and water. The improvement is considered ample for present or prospective needs of navigation. No terminals are needed, as all commerce is handled between points which are located at a considerable distance from the improvement, and the channels serve as an outlet for commerce originating on the streams above. EAST PEARL RIVER, MISS. The existing project for this improvement provides for restoring a depth of 9 feet over a width of 200 feet through the bar at the mouth of East. Pearl River in Lake Borgne. The length of the channel is about 1.3 miles. The locality is well protected from storms and has an average range of tide of about 1% feet. The commerce during 1918 amounted to 77,954 short tons, of which about 92 per cent consisted of forest products originating at the mills located above the improvement and destined to points on the Gulf coast. This commerce was handled entirely by tugs and barges with a maximum draft of about 7% feet. There are no terminals at this locality. The Louisville & Nashville Railroad passes along the coast about 1% miles above the improvement, and there is a small interchange of traffic from this railroad to vessels for distribution to the sawmills. The amount of this traffic during 1918 amounted to not more than 1,800 tons. The channel is used by all vessels engaged in commerce on East Pearl River, and it is con- sidered ample for the present and prospective needs of navigation. No terminals are needed, as the channel serves as an outlet for commerce originating on the stream above the improvement. PEARL RIVER BELow ROCKPORT, MISS. The source of the Pearl River is in the north central part of Mis- sissippi and its mouth at the Rigolets, which connects Lakes Borgne and Pontchartrain; its length is about 485 miles and its flow south- erly. The section under improvement extends from its mouth to Rockport, a distance of 246 miles. The existing project provides for the removal of Snags, sunken trees, etc., and for the maintenance of a 2-foot channel throughout the section. - The commerce during 1918, amounting to 28,357 short tons, con- sisted of logs, lumber, and piling, which originated along the river, all of which was rafted. There are no terminals along this river and none are needed, as no navigation, other than rafting at mean and high stages, is possible, except for a distance of 24 miles above the mouth, over which section there is a limiting draft of 6 feet at mean low water. Two lines of railroads parallel, the river on either side for the length of the improvement, but there is no interchange of traffic from the railroads to river. The present navigation facilities are considered ample for the present and prospective commerce. # WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. MOBILE HARBOR, ALA. JMUNICIPAL PIER.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIFS, NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT. COL. E. J. DENT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS IN CHARGE LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN, LA. Lake Pontchartrain, in southeastern Louisiana, just north of New Orleans, has a length of 40 miles, a width of 24 miles, and a central depth of 16 feet, decreasing regularly to about 6 feet near shore. The existing project provides for the removal of the old break- water off Milneburg, La., and partly submerged logs throughout the lake, and for dredging and marking a channel 8 feet deep at mean low Gulf and 150 feet wide on bottom, over the “middle grounds” in the eastern portion of Lake Pontchartrain. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 451,308 tons, valued at $14,906,864, and 60,000 passengers were carried. The tonnage consisted principally of automobiles, brick, charcoal, lumber, sand, and gravel, and miscellaneous merchandise, which are carried practically over the entire lake. Logs and lumber comprise about 41 per cent, and sand about 22 per cent of the entire tonnage. There are approximately 30 luggers, varying from 9 to 30 tons, operating on º: lake. These are sailing vessels, some of which have auxiliary engines. There are also about 20 schooners, averaging from 9 to 20 tons, most of which are equipped with auxiliary engines. About 10 steam tugboats, varying from 18 to 75 tons, are used for general towing purposes, and about 6 steamboats, some of which are stern-wheelers, are used for delivering general freight and mer- chandise. The draft of the vessels varies from 4 to 7 feet. There are numerous smaller craft used for miscellaneous purposes. Practically all of the commerce on the lake enters or leaves the New Basin Canal, at New Orleans, owned by the State. There are three terminals on the lake proper, located at Mandeville, La., Milneburg, and Spanish Fort (New Orleans). These terminals were used before the war by the steamer Mandeville. At the beginning. of the war the steamer was chartered by the Government, and since then the terminals have seldom been used. The New Basin Canal Co. charges tolls of 30 cents per ton for the use of the canal. * The existing terminals are considered adequate for the existing commerce. No further improvements are contemplated as far as known. The waterway is used extensively. The channel through the “middle grounds” is used by the shipyard at Madisonville, on the Chefuncte River, and at Slidell, on Bayou Bonfouca. Several 3,500-ton wooden ships were taken from these yards, by lake, to the Mississippi Sound. - - There are no railroad connections at Mandeville terminal and none are considered necessary. At Spanish Fort (New Orleans) there is an extension of the electric railway owned by the New 1070 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 10'71 Orleans Railway & Light Co., which runs to the end of the wharf. When the Mandeville is operating, freight is hauled to and from the city by this road. Spur tracks have been run to the wharves of a few private parties on the New Basin Canal, but there is no joint rail and water terminal. * CHEFUNCTE RIVER AND BOGUE FALIA, LA. Chefuncte River rises in the upper portions of Tangipahoa and Washington Parishes, and flows southerly into Lake Pontchartrain, opposite New Orleans. The distance from New Orleans to the mouth of the Chefuncte River, by water via New Basin Canal, is 31% miles. Bogue Falia rises in the lower portion of Washington Parish and joins the Chefuncte River 10% miles above Lake Pontchartrain. The project provides for dredging the bar at the mouth of Chefuncte River, in Lake Pontchartrain, and for dredging and removing obstructions from Chefuncte River and Bogue Falia to Covington, La. The total length of the improvement is 14% miles. The commerce during the calendar year 1918 amounted to 246,399 tons, valued at $6,941,893, and 14,932 passengers were carried. The tonnage consisted of piling, steam ships, iron and steel, lumber, logs, sand, and miscellaneous merchandise. Sand comprises 39 per cent of the tonnage; logs, piling, and lumber comprise over 45 per cent of the tonnage, and require boats for carrying and towing of a draft of 6 to 7 feet. The Josie, a 73-ton steamboat, and the Rosa A, a 36-ton lugger, make regular trips up the improvement. There are two steam tugs of 18 and 19 tons, used for logging operations, and a few larger steam tugs for towing sand and gravel barges. The terminals are located at Madisonville, Houltonville, and Covington, La. The terminals at Madisonville consist of two rivately-owned warehouses, the property of the boat owners. here are no wharves. At Houltonville there is a private wharf and warehouse, both well constructed. Traffic has been discontinued at this place temporarily and all shipments are consigned to Madi- sonville, 1 mile below. Between Houltonville and Covington the terminals are few; freight is discharged on the natural bank and unloaded by hand. At Covington there are two dilapidated aban- doned warehouses. At Covington navigation has become very slack, owing to shoaling at the head of the improvement. This shoaling makes the ware- houses inaccessible to even shallow draft boats. The cost of dredging to the warehouses is excessive for the amount of traffic, and the municipal authorities have made no effort to locate the terminal where deep water exists. The lower part of the improvement is utilized to a considerable extent for navigation. The territory served by these streams is touched by the New Orleans Great Northern Railroad, at Covington, and practically all the commerce to and from New Orleans is carried by the railroad. It is believed there is no necessity for establishing a joint rail and water terminal. 1072 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. PASS MANCHAC, LA. Pass Manchac rises in Lake Maurepas and flows in a general easterly direction into Lake Pontchartrain at a point 29 miles from New Orleans. It has a length of about 7 miles and width of about 800 feet. The entire Pass is under improvement. - The project provides for the removal of snags, logs, etc., through- out the Pass and from the bars at the entrance to the Pass. The commerce through the Pass for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 80,020 tons of 2,000 pounds, valued at $2,373,754. Lumber and logs comprised about 85 per cent of the total tonnage. There is a small station called Manchac, or Akers, on the Lake Maurepas end. No terminals exist on the Pass, nor are any neces- sary. All commerce from New Orleans consigned to points on Amite River, Tickfaw, Natalbany, Ponchatoula, and Blood Rivers is distributed through this Pass. TICKFAW, NATALBANY, PONCHATOULA, AND BLOOD RIVERS, LA. Tickfaw River flows in a southerly direction to Lake Maurepas. Natalbany River flows into Tickfaw River about 2 miles above its entrance into Lake Maurepas. Ponchatoula River flows into Natal- bany River about 3% miles above its junction with the Tickfaw River. Blood River flows into the Tickfaw River about 7% miles above its entrance into Lake Maurepas. The project provides for the removal of obstructions in the Tick- faw River from its mouth to a point 26 miles above, on the Natal- bany and Ponchatoula Rivers for a distance of 15% miles, and on the Blood River, from its mouth to the head of navigation, about 4 miles, the total length of the improvement being 45.5 miles. The commerce for 1918 amounted to 46,537 tons of 2,000 pounds, valued at $1,086,883. The tonnage consisted principally of lumber and logs, which comprised about 90 per cent of the total. Prac- tically all of the commerce is carried between Springfield, on the Natalbany, and the mouth of the Tickfaw River. There are two propeller steamboats of 90 tons each, owned by the sawmill companies located on Natalbany River, which make regular weekly trips to Springfield. These vessels seldom go up the Tick- faw or Ponchatoula Rivers. One of the lumber companies owns a 33-ton steam tug, used in logging operations. There are several smaller gas tugs and launches operating on the stream, used prin- cipally for towing logs, and occasionally there are a few luggers, of about 10 to 20 tons, which make trips on the improvement. There are a few terminals on the improvement, which are located at Killian, on the Tickfaw River, at Springfield, on the Natalbany River, and at Wadesboro, on the Ponchatoula River. The one at Killian consists of a small private pile wharf and warehouse. A little farther upstream there is located another wharf, 72 feet long, used for storing lumber. At Springfield, on the Natalbany River, there are two small private wharves and warehouses owned by the merchants at this place. The Springfield Lumber Co., located about a mile below Springfield, has several wharves fronting its plant; at Wadesboro, on the Ponchatoula River, there is a well-constructed warehouse, the largest on the improvement. A small wharf fronts the warehouse. All water carriers are allowed to use this terminal On equal terms, the charges being 5 per cent of the freight rates: WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1073 The water front is privately owned and controlled. The improvement is located in a swampy region, and occasionally ridges extend to the water's edge and landings are sometimes made directly against the bank. All unloading is accomplished by hand. Except as already stated, no other terminal improvements are con- templated. The existing terminals are considered adequate for the COIOIſleTCG. The improvement is used extensively for logging operations and somewhat for delivering freight and general merchandise. There are no railroads in the territory served by the streams. All commerce is consigned to or comes from New Orleans. As there are no railroads serving the territory, and as the character and extent of the commerce does not justify the extension of branch railroad lines to this country, it is not probable that there will be any joint connection between rail and water in the very near future. AMITE RIVER AND BAYOU MANCHAC, LA. Amite River flows in a general southerly direction and empties into Lake Maurepas. Bayou Manchac extends from near the Mississippi River Levees to Amite River, and is 18% miles long. The project provides for the removal of obstructions in the Amite River from its mouth to a point 73% miles above its junction with Bayou Manchac, a total distance of 110 miles, and for the concen- tration of the water by the closure of island chutes. It also provides for improvement of Bayou Manchac by snagging and dredging from its mouth to a point 114 miles above, and for the dredging of a turning basin at or near the mouth of Wards Creek. The stream is used principally for logging, which comprises about 87 per cent of the º tonnage. The commerce for 1918 amounted to 55,916 tons, valued at $1,436,150. There were 207 passengers carried on the stream. The steamer Jesse, a stern-wheeler of 73 tons, operates on the stream, making two trips a week regularly from New Orleans as far up as Port Vincent, 32 miles above the mouth. The several logging companies operating on the stream own tugs of from 20 to 25 tons; these are used for logging operations. The terminals on the improvement are few in number and are small, simple wharves. In some cases they are nothing more than a walk. At Port Vincent and Clio there are small private ware- houses. The one at Clio is 10 by 12 feet, and at Port Vincent 18 by 24 feet. At numerous places along the stream landings are made against the bank, and all loading and unloading is by hand. These terminals appear adequate for the present commerce on the stream and for commerce that can reasonably be expected to develop in the near future. There are no existing rail and water connections. The only railroads touching the improvement are the Louisiana Railway & Navigation Co., which crosses Bayou Manchac about 2 miles above Hope Villa, and a branch of the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railroad, which crosses the Amite River at Denham Springs, 20 miles above the junction with Bayou Manchac. These railroads 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—68 º, 1074 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. are too distant from that part of the stream where commerce is active, and the commerce is not sufficient at present, nor is it expected to develop in the near future to such an extent as to necessitate establishing joint rail and water terminals. BARATARIA BAY, LA. This waterway extends in a general southerly direction from the junction of Bayou Villars and Little Barataria Bayou by Big Bara- taria Bayou, Bayou Dupont, and by Barataria Bay to the east end of Bayou Rigault, a distance of 39.95 miles, the lower end connecting with the Gulf of Mexico through Grand Pass. The project provides for dredging a channel 5 feet deep at mean low Gulf and 50 feet wide on bottom from the junction of Bayou Villars and Big Barataria Bayou to Grand Isle. Actual work of construction of the canal has not yet begun. Water traffic on the proposed waterway is mainly tributary to New Orleans. At the latter point there are extensive public docks and warehouses open to all commerce on equal terms. For the use of such boats as do not wish to enter the Mississippi River, the Harvey Canal provides a small terminal which is open to users of the canal without charge other than the usual canal toll. - On Bayou Barataria the only public wharf is at Lafitte, this being }. to all commerce without charge. Throughout Barataria Bay there exist numerous structures known as ‘‘shrimp drying plat- forms,” each being privately owned. Oysters, which constitute a large proportion of the tonnage, are loaded from oyster boats directly onto the freight boats, the latter being anchored in the bay. Along the banks of the bayou numerous stores and farms have their private wharves, and where no wharves exist, supplies can, if necessary, be landed on the banks. s At Grand Isle, a truck-gardening country, a navigation district has been organized for the purpose of constructing a canal and wharves to facilitate the handling of the products. The plans are that this shall be a public improvement, open to all on equal terms, and that the charges shall be only sufficient to pay for the work. There are no railroad connections. The waterway will serve the sections not reached by railroads. BAYOU LAFOURCHE, LA. Bayou Lafourche flows in a southeasterly direction to the Gulf of . Mexico, a distance of 107 miles. The project provides for the construction of a lock, no dimensions specified, at the head of the bayou, and dredging the channel to a epth of 5 feet at mean low Gulf and a bottom width of 75 feet through- out the length of the stream. The commerce for 1918 amounted to 267,054 tons, valued at $10,067,475. There were 500 passengers carried on the stream. The tonnage consisted principally of lumber, sugar, sugar cane, fuel oil, and miscellaneous farm products. Sugar cane comprises about 60 per cent of the total tonnage; fuel oil about 20 per cent. , Approx- imately 150 carloads of corn are shipped yearly from Thibodaux; 700 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1075 garloads of potatoes and onions, and 300 carloads of corn are shipped from Lockport. Two large plants at the head of the bayou operate fuel barges and deliver oil to the sugar refineries along the stream. Most of the water carriers operating on the improvement are stern wheel vessels. Two of these, of 54 and 56 tons, make two trips regularly from New Orleans to points on the bayou. There are a few other smaller stern-wheelers in the freight and merchandise trade, averaging about 30 tons. The oil companies operate small tugs for towing barges and stern-wheelers for delivering refined oil. A barge line company, operating on the lower part of the stream, operates three steamboats of about 39 tons and about 22 barges. There are several small wharves on the improvement. These are generally owned by the individuals operating water carriers. They are mostly small timber and pile wharves. At Lockport there is a large well-constructed private wharf, about 300 feet long by 22 feet wide. This is the only large wharf on the stream. The banks of the bayou are lined with high levees. In general, freight is delivered in the open along the bayou by freighters, which are usually equipped with a gang plank used for unloading. This gang plank is placed on the bank, and freight is thus transferred by hand. At Donaldsonville, Thibodaux, Lafourche Crossing, and Lockport there are unloading devices for transferring freight from the boat to the top of bank. Pending the construction of a lock at the head of the bayou, at Donaldsville, the terminals are considerably adequate to meet the present commerce or of commerce that can reasonably be expected to develop in the near future. The water front in general is privately owned. At the town of Napoleonville a charge of 25 cents is exacted for all landings at the bank within the corporate limits of the town. g Owing to the increased expense of delivering freight from the boat to the various mercantile establishments along the bayou, one of the companies operating freighters on the stream has issued a circular Stating it will charge an additional rate of 25 cents for this service. However, if the individual establishments will construct a wharf it will deliver freight there without the additional charge. The existing terminals are considered satisfactory, and no improvements in them are contemplated. - The stream is used extensively. Two barge line companies operate on the stream which have an agreement with the Southern Pacific Railroad whereby through rates exist at Lafourche Crossing and Lockport. Other than those mentioned, there does not appear any necessity for rail-water connections. - It is believed that the existing terminal facilities are adequate for the existing commerce or commerce that may develop until a lock is constructed at the head of the bayou. BAYOU TERREBONNE, LA. Bayou Terrebonne flows into Terrebonne Bay. The length of the stream is 52 miles. The project provides for a channel with a depth of 6 feet below mean low Gulf, from deep water at Bush Canal, 12.9 miles from the mouth of the bayou, to the St. Louis Cypress Co. bridge at Houma, La., a distance of 24.11 miles. I 0.76 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The commerce during 1918 amounted to 190,191 tons valued at $6,632,487, and 1,000 passengers. The principal commerce con- sisted of logs, sugar, sugar cane, which comprise about 70 per cent of the total tonnage. The improvement is also used extensively by the fish and oyster industry. Houma, La., located at the head of the improvement, is one of the largest oyster shipping points in the country. g . There are approximately 1,000 small gasoline boats and luggers, varying from 5 to 20 tons, used by the fish and oyster industry. There are a few small stern-wheel gasoline boats operating on the stream in the freight and passenger trade; these boats average about 30 tons. - There are two large stern-wheel vessels of 175 and 225 tons, making regular trips between New Orleans and points on Bayou Terrebonne. These boats are in the freight and merchandise trade. Small stern- wheel boats are used for towing barges. The water terminals consist, in general, of simple timber wharves at which boats land and discharge or load their freight by hand. In a few cases conveyors or simple unloading devices are used. The stream is narrow and does not permit. the construction of large wharves. At the town of Houma, where practically all of the com- merce originates or terminates, the principal business street parallels the bayou about 150 feet distant. There are numerous bulkheads here, making suitable terminals for the commerce. Good shell roads lead to the bayou's edge, where freight is discharged and delivered to the consignee in his store, by hand. There is only one public wharf at Houma, and this is of private ownership. The water front is privately owned and controlled. The existing terminals are considered satisfactory. Various prop- erty owners are constructing bulkheads, which serve the purpose of preventing the banks from caving and at the same time make good landings. There is a barge line company operating on the stream, which has an agreement with the Southern Pacific Railroad whereby an inter- change of traffic is made and through rates apply on the improve- ment. Its terminal is located at Houma. There are no other rail connections on the bayou. Other than the above-mentioned rail- water terminal, there does not appear further necessity for rail-water connections. The various oyster and fishing depots truck their ship- #. to the railroad which, in general, is within a quarter to 1 mile istant. BAYOU PLAQUEMINE, GRAND RIVER, AND PIGEON BAYOUS, LA. Bayou Plaquemine connects with the Mississippi River by Plaque- mine Lock, 112 miles above New Orleans. The waterway from Plaquemine to Morgan City consists of Bayou Plaquemine, Grand River, Bay Natchez, Little Goddell and Big Goddell, Belle River, Bayou Long, Flat Lake, and Drews Pass to Berwick Bay; thence by Atchafalaya River to Morgan City, a total distance of about 64 miles. Pigeon Bayous consist of Pigeon Bayou and its outlet tributary Little Pigeon Bayou, and connects Grand River with Grand Lake, flowing from the former stream 14 miles below the mouth to Bayou Plaquemine. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1077 The commerce during 1918 amounted to 638,341 tons, valued at, $13,381,088, and 777 passengers. The tonnage consisted principally of lumber, logs, cord wood, fuel oil, and miscellaneous merchandise, which comprise about 98 per cent of the tonnage. There are about seven sawmills scattered along Bayou Plaquemine, which have an output of from 20,000 to 65,000 feet capacity per day. Some of these mills cut lumber for staves and cooperage. There are numerous small gasoline boats, from 5 to 20 tons, oper- ating on the improvement. Small stern-wheel gasoline vessels of about 18 and 50 tons, are used for delivering freight and merchandise to the adjacent country. Large stern-wheel steamboats, averaging 90 tons, are used by the lumber industry for logging operations. There are only a few simple timber wharves on the improvement; landings are usually made against the bank and freight discharged and unloaded there by hand. At Indian Village there is a privately owned coaling plant. At the town of Plaquemine, the necessity for a good public wharf is urgent. There are no accommodations what- ever for water carriers. The boats land against the bank and transfer their freight by hand. It is believed the commerce on the stream. justifies the construction of a good public wharf, which should be equipped with an endless conveyor for transferring freight and mer– chandise from the bayou to the top of the bank. This would greatly facilitate the transfer of freight, it would decrease freight charges, . and would probably increase the water commerce. The navigable facilities are used extensively. The Texas & Pacific Co. has a spur track paralleling the bayou and extending to Indian Village, which serves the industries located on the stream. There is no interchange of traffic between rail and water. - Owing to the character of the commerce, which is generally deliv- ered in small lots, a joint rail and water terminal is considered unneces— sary. * BAYOU GROSSETETE, LA. Bayou Grossetete rises in Point Coupee Parish, La., and enters. Bayou Plaquemine 8 miles below Plaquemine Lock. The length of the stream is about 40 miles. & The project provides for improving the stream for a distance of 29 miles, from its mouth to a point 5 miles above Maringouin, La., by removing snags and trees and by dredging a channel 60 feet wide. on the bottom and 5 feet deep at mean low water. The commerce during the calendar year 1918 amounted to 214,823. tons, valued at $1,948,427. It consisted principally of lumber, logs, sugar cane, and miscellaneous items, lumber and logs comprising about 95 per cent of the total tonnage. A large item is sugar. There is a large sugar refinery on the stream located 17 miles above the mouth. Small gasoline launches are used for towing cane barges to the sugar refinery. There are two small stern-wheel gasoline boats of about 18 and 50 tons, in the freight and merchandise trade; one of these makes weekly trips and the other monthly trips. These boats. usually tow a 50-ton barge. For logging operations large stern- wheel steam vessels are used, varying from 37 to 63 tons. There are no wharves on the improvement; landings are made against the banks, which are firm and high. All loading and unload- ing is by hand. The stores are located on the banks of the bayou, 1078 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. and freight is carried directly from the boat to the store. Because of the nearness of these stores, and because of the small amount of commerce on the stream, it is not believed necessary to construct wharves. Private ownership extends to the water's edge, and the water front along the entire stream is controlled by the individual owners. The stream is used extensively by the lumber industry for logging operations and for the delivery of merchandise and freight, by water carriers making monthly and semimonthly trips. #. 8.TG Il O rail-water connections. - There are no terminal improvements contemplated. The stream is crossed at Grossetete, La., by the Texas & Pacific Railroad and the Southern Pacific Railroad, and just above the improvement by the Frisco Railroad. There are no physical con- nections between the railroads and the bayou. The commerce is not sufficient at present, nor is it expected to develop in the near future to such an extent as to necessitate estab- lishing joint rail and water terminals. BAYOU TECHE, LA. Bayou Teche has its source in Bayou Courtableau, in St. Landry Parish, and flows in a southeasterly direction a distance of 125 miles, where it joins the Lower Atchafalaya River about 10% miles above Morgan City. - tº, The project provides for a channel 8 feet deep at mean Gulf level and 80 feet wide on bottom, from the mouth of the stream to New Iberia (54% miles), 6 feet deep at mean Gulf level, and 60 feet wide on bottom, from New Iberia to Keystone Lock (mile 72%), and 6 feet deep at mean Gulf level and 50 feet wide on bottom from Keystone Lock to Arnaudville, La., a distance of 106% miles, to be secured by dredging, removing snags, and overhanging trees, and by construc- tion of a lock and dam and other regulating works. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to $550,370 tons, valued at $12,022,872. It consisted principally of logs, which comprise 77 per cent of the total tonnage; miscellaneous merchan- dise, 5 per cent; fuel oil, approximately 6 per cent; and sugar cane, about 5 per cent. There are two stern-wheel packets of about 90 tons each, making regular trips on the bayou, delivering freight and general merchan- dise. At different periods of the year there are about 19 steamboats, varying from 50 to 90 tons, several smaller ones, and numerous small gasoline boats operating on the improvement. Approximately 80 barges are used for shipping cane and fuel oil. The terminals consist of simple timber wharves. Where no wharves are located, landirgs are made against the bank, a gang- plank is placed on shore, ard the cargo is unloaded by hand. A new 90-ton packet has begun weekly trips up the Teche, delivering general freight and merchandise. In order to stimulate this commerce, new wharves should be constructed at Franklin, Jeanerette, and New Iberia. The other terminals are considered adequate for the COIſllſſlerCe. - Practically all of the sugar refineries on the bayou own small simple timber wharves. These are used for unloading cane barges. In some cases the wharf is equipped with a small stiff-leg derrick, WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1079 which is used for unloading the cane from the barge to small tram- cars. At Centerville, La., there is a small public landing 20 by 20 feet; at Franklin, La., a small pile wharf, 25 by 80 feet, which is in need of repairs. At the Sterling Refinery, Franklin, there is a slip 50 by 100 feet and an aerial device for unloading cane barges. At this point the Franklin & Abbeville Railroad owns a conveyor for loading and unloading freight from barges. The slip is paralleled on both sides by tracks belonging to the Franklin & Abbeville Railroad. * There are only a few warehouses on the bayou, which are usually Owned by the merchants. Several of the sugar refineries own large rivate warehouses, from which shipments are made on the stream. hese are used exclusively for storing sugar. One of the large packets operated by a wholesale grocery company makes regular trips up the bayou. The company owns several private warehouses along the stream, from which it distributed its merchandise. These are located at Jeanerette, Franklin, New Iberia, St. Martinville, and Breaux Bridge. At the Sterling Refinery, Franklin, La., there are through rates existing between the Franklin & Abbeville Railroad and a barge line operating between the mouth and Jeanerette. Property ownership extends to the water line and the water front is privately controlled. While all the wharves are private, they are usually opened to water carriers without charge. The wholesale grocery company mentioned is contemplating en- larging a few of its warehouses. The existing wharves owned by the sugar refineries are considered adequate to handle their shipments. It is believed the commerce on the stream justifies the construction of a public wharf by the municipal authorities at the following towns: Franklin, Jeanerette, New Iberia, Loreauville, St. Martinville, and Breaux Bridge; the size of the wharves to be governed by the extent of the commerce shipped to these places. As far as could be ascer- tained, no terminal improvements are contemplated other than those mentioned. The bayou is used extensively by the sugar industry for shippin cane and sugar, for the shipment of fuel oil, rice, freight, and genera merchandise, and for logging operations. The existing rail terminal at Franklin is used for shipping out, locally, sugar and rice, Fer- tilizer and cooperage is received at this point and distributed along the bayou. Through rates exist at this point from the mouth to Jeanerette. - The Southern Pacific and the Frisco Railroads parallel and at places cross the bayou, competing with water transportation. How- ever, there are no physical connections between these railroads and the bayou. The existing rail-water gonnection just above Franklin between the Franklin & Abbeville Railroad and the Taylor Co. (Inc.), barge line, is considered adequate to handle the commerce on this improvement. ATCHAFALAYA RIVER, MORGAN CITY TO THE GULF OF MEXICO, LA. The Atchafalaya River is an outlet of the Mississippi as well as of the Red River. It flows generally south a distance of about 170 miles and empties into Atchafalaya Bay, an inlet of the Gulf of Mexico. The section under improvement is from the 20-foot con- 1080 - WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. . tour, 4 miles beyond the mouth of the Atchafalaya River, to the 20-foot contour in the Gulf of Mexico, a distance of about 15% miles. The project is for a channel 20 feet deep and 200 feet wide, extending from the 20-foot contour, 4 miles beyond the mouth of the Atcha- falaya River, to the 20-foot contour in the Gulf of Mexico. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 11,626 tons, valued at $1,221,998. It consisted principally of fuel oil, new ship hulls, and miscellaneous merchandise, fuel oil and merchandise comprising 50 per cent of the total tonnage, and new ship hulls about 32 per cent. The commerce entering and leaving Morgan City for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 624,903 tons, valued at $11,296,849. It consisted principally of logs, which comprises about 74 per cent of the total tonnage, and fuel oil, comprising approximately 8 per cent. There are approximately 1,500 small gasoline boats and luggers, from 5 to 15 tons, used in the fish and oyster industry, several large stern-wheel vessels used for towing logs, delivering freight and general merchandise, and large tugs for towing tankers from the Tampico oil fields. - There are five well-constructed pile wharves at Morgan City, owned by the municipality, whose combined length measures approxi- mately 413 linear feet. These wharves are public and are open to all water carriers without charge. There are several private wharves of simple pile construction scattered along the water front. Some of these are used as filling stations by the oil companies. While these wharves are suitable for the present commerce, it is believed the future commerce will require the construction of more public wharf SO 8,06. * Pº Morgan City the water front is under the control of the munici- pality. The city owns about 2,200 feet of water front, about 1,000 feet of which is above the city. The wharves owned by the city are open to carriers without charge, but vacant space on the water front is rented at 10 cents per front foot. The city contemplates the construction of about 200 linear feet of wharf, which will be open to all water.carriers without charge. At Berwick the Texas Oil Co. is planning the erection of three 55,000- barrel tanks for storing fuel oil received by water from the Tampico oil fields, and the construction of another pile wharf, 50 by 200 feet. The Southern Pacific Railroad has a spur track paralleling the Morgan City water front, but there is no interchange of traffic at any point. Several large ships constructed at shipyards on Bayou Boeuf have used and will use this channel. Owing to the character of the commerce, there is small possibility of a joint rail and water terminal. - INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY, FRANKLIN TO MERMENTAU, LA. This waterway extends from Bayou Teche to Mermentau River, La., and is a continuation eastward of the waterway from Sabine River to Mermentau River, La. The project provides for a channel 5 feet deep below mean low Gulf and a bottom width of 40 feet; also the purchase of the Hanson Canal and the construction of a lock and dam in Schooner Bayou. Only one section has been completed, namely, from Vermilion Bay to Mermentau River. This part runs through several lakes and is otherwise in a marsh. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1081 The commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 10,194 tons, valued at $360,460, and 1,652 passengers. The tonnage con- sisted principally of fuel oil, which comprised about 60 per cent of the total, and lumber, which comprised about 20 per cent. Cotton and cotton seed and miscellaneous merchandise made up the other principal items. * The only commerce which originates or ends along this canal is handled in small boats without the need of terminals. There are no railroad connections, the completed portion passing through a section bordering the Gulf not tapped by railroads. No terminals throughout the completed portion of the waterway are needed. INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY, MERMENTAU RIVER TO SABINE RIVER, LA. AND TEX. This waterway extends from Mermentau River, La., to Sabine River, La. and Tex., and is a continuation westward of the water- way from Franklin to Mermentau, La. It is divided into two sections. The project provides for the section from Mermentau River to Calcasieu River, a distance of 37.5 miles, for a channel 7 feet deep and 75 feet wide on bottom. No work has as yet been done on this section. The project for the section from Calcasieu River to Sabine River, a distance of 24.5 miles, provides for a canal 90 feet wide on bottom and of such depth as can be obtained at a cost of $490,000. This section was originally dredged to a depth of 6 feet and is now being redredged to a depth of approximately 12 feet. The commerce for the completed portion of the waterway from Calcasieu River to Sabine River, La. and Tex., for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 17,862 tons, valued at $2,277,948. The principal items consisted of animals, boats, barges, etc.; fuel oil, lumber, and rice, which comprised about 90 per cent of the total tonnage. The Calcasieu-Sabine section of the canal, connecting Calcasieu River and Sabine River, is used by practically all water carriers operating between Lake Charles, Orange, and Port Arthur. The terminals are located at the above towns; there are no terminals along the waterway. * Terminals at Lake Charles are described in report on terminals on Calcasieu River, La. (p. 1086). Terminals at Orange and Port Arthur, Tex., are described in report of the Dallas, Tex., district for the Sabine River and the Sabine-Neches Canal. There are no railroad connections. The canal passes through a section bordering the Culf not tapped by railroads. The terminals are considered adequate for the existing commerce. BAYOU WERMILION, LA. Bayou Vermilion is formed by the junction of Bayous Fusilier and Borbeau, west of Arnaudville, La., and flows in a general south- westerly direction, emptying into the western end of Vermilion Bay. The length of the entire stream is 71 miles, that of the section under improvement being 51 miles, and extending from near Lafayette, La., to Vermilion Bay. 1082 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The project provides for a channel 5% feet deep at mean low gulf, no width specified, from Vermilion Bay to the Southern Pacific Bridge at Lafayette, La., a distance of 51 miles. The commerce on the bayou amounted to 33,134 tons, valued at $1,051,632. There were 3,375 passengers carried on the stream. The tonnage consisted principally of sugar cane, which comprises about 85 per cent of the total; rice and miscellaneous products comprise about 11 per cent. There are two stern-wheel steam vessels of approximately 70 tons, operating on the stream. They are used for towing cane and rice barges and for delivering freight and general merchandise. There are two other gasoline boats of about 10 tons operating regularly between Abbeville and the lower coast. Numerous smaller boats of about 5 to 10 tons use the stream during the fishing SeaSOIl. There are only a few terminals on the improvement. These are located at Bancker, Rosehill, Abbeville, and Lafayette. At numer- ous places along the bayou landings are made against the bank and unloading is by hand. At Abbeville, where practically all the commerce originates or terminates, there are two terminals; one is owned by the Southern Pacific Railroad. It is a well con- structed wharf, 100 feet in length by 33 feet in width, equipped with an inclined conveyor for transferring freight from the wharf to the top of the bank. The railroad company's freight shed is near the terminal and a spur track leads alongside the shed to the wharf. Through rates exist at this point by an agreement between the owner of the J. B. Chaffe and the Southern Pacific Railroad. About 800 feet above the Southern Pacific Railroad terminal there is a public wharf owned by the municipality. It measures 145 feet in length by 45 feet in width, and is open to all water carriers without charge. Elsewhere, private ownership extends to the water's edge. The terminals at Bancker and Rosehill are small wharves, and at Lafayette, two small warehouses. It is believed the terminals are generally adequate, but should be improved in case of any extended increase of commerce. No improvements are contemplated at the present time, as the existing terminals are considered adequate to handle all the present commerce on the bayou. The stream is used extensively for towing cane and rice, and for delivering general freight and merchandise. While an agreement exists between the steamer J. B. Chaffe and the Southern Pacific Railroad for through rates at Abbeville, little use is made of these rates; an additional charge is generally made for transporting freight on the bayou from this point. The joint rail and water connection at Abbeville is considered adequate for the commerce on the improvement. MERMENTAU RIVER, BAYOU NEZPIQUE, AND BAYOU DES CANNES, LA. Mermentau River is formed by the junction of Bayous Des Cannes and Nezpique, near Mermentau, La. It flows in a southwesterly direction and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. The entire length of the stream is 71.5 miles and is included in the project for improvement. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1083 Bayou Nezpique rises in Evangeline Parish, flows in a southerly direction, and empties into the Mermentau River. The length of the stream is about 80 miles, of which 25 miles is under improvement. Bayou Des Cannes rises in Evangeline Parish, flows in a southerly direction, and empties into Mermentau River. The length of the stream is about 60 miles, of which the lower 8.5 miles is under improvement. The project provides for removing obstructions to secure the natural channel throughout the entire Mermentau River, 7.1% miles, and through Bayou Nezpique, from the mouth to the 25 mile point, and Bayou Des Cannes from the mouth to Evangeline Bridge (mile 8.5), also improving the channel in Lower Mud Lake by gonstructing a brush dam to concentrate the action of the current and by dredging, also the removal of a portion of the wrecked lock and dam, 7 miles above the mouth. Rice is the largest single article of commerce on these streams. They are used to some extent for logging and for shipping fuel oil to the numerous rice irrigation pumping plants along the streams. Cotton is shipped from points on the Lower Mermentau River. The com- merce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 37,374 tons valued at $1,932,235. There were 14,000 passengers carried. The tonnage consisted principally of fuel oil, rice, logs, and lumber, which com- prise 85 per cent of the total. & There are about six motor boats, varying from 9 to 44 tons, opera- ting regularly between Lake Arthur and Grand Chénier. A few of these vessels also make regular trips from Mermentau, La. These vessels cºrry both passengers and freight. Approximately 30 small gºsoline boats operate on the improvement at different periods of the year, which are used for towing oil and rice barges; there are about 25 barges. At the town of Mermentau, La., there is a small wharf, 15 by 20 feet, and a warehouse in the rear, 9 by 15 feet. The wharf and ware- house are of timber construction and both are in a dilapidated con- dition and in need of repairs. The only well constructed terminal is located at Lake Arthur, La. This is a pile pier projecting into the lake 330 feet long by 16 feet wide, at the end of which is a pile wharf 40 by 60 feet. This is a public terminal, owned by the town of Lake Arthur, and it is open to all water carriers, without charge. At Grand Chenier there are four small private warehouses, averag- ing 20 by 30 feet, at which small makeshift timber wharves have been constructed. These wharves are owned by the merchants and are usually open to all water carriers, without charge, when not used by the owners. While the terminals are very poor at this place, they serve the purpose satisfactorily. It is believed the terminals here could be improved by the con- struction of a single warehouse, subdivided into several compartments as many as necessary to serve the merchants, the warehouse to be fronted by a simple pile wharf, about 12 feet wide. The water front is privately owned and controlled. As far as could be ascertained, no improvements in the terminals are contemplated. The Southern Pacific Railroad has a spur track leading to the river at Mermentau, La. Considerable rice goes to this point, where it is unloaded by hand from barges to cars. There are no through rates. 1084 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. At TLake Arthur the Louisiana State Rice Milling Co. owns an endless chain conveyor for unloading rice from barges directly to the mill. There formerly existed at the town of Mermentau, La., a joint agreement between the Olive and the Southern Pacific Railroad for through rates on the improvement. However, this has been discon- tinued for several years. The railroad company owns a large wharf and a spur track leading to it, at this place. The only thing lacking for a joint water-rai terminal is a contract with some water carrier for transporting the freight along the improvement. If this were done, it is believed the commerce would be increased considerably. BAYOU QUEUE DE TORTUE, LA. Bayou Queue de Tortue rises in the western part of Lafayette Parish, La., and flows in a southwesterly, then westerly direction between Acadia and Vermilion Parishes. The project provides for the removal of obstructions from its mouth to the Southern Pacific Railroad bridge at Riceville, La., and for dredging 10 cut-offs, aggregating 1,765 feet in length, reducing the ºnce from the mouth of the bayou to the bridge, to about 14 IIllleS. * The improvement is used principally for delivering fuel oil to the Various rice pumping plants along the stream, and for logging on a small scale. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 7,137 tons, valued at $96,650. The logs and fuel oil comprised about 90 per cent of the total tonnage. There are only a few gasoline boats, of from 4 to 5 tons, operating on the improvement, which are used principally for towing fuel oil barges and for towing logs. There are no terminals worthy of mention. The water front is privately owned and controlled. Owing to the character and amount of the existing commerce it is believed no further terminals are necessary, nor is a rail-water con-, nection needed. BAYOU PLAQUEMINE BRULE, LA. Bayou Plaquemine Brule rises in the southwestern part of St. Landry Parish and flows in a general southwesterly direction, enter- ing the Mermentau River about 5 miles above Mermentau, La. It is about 75 miles long. & e The project provides for the removal of snags and other obstruc- tions and for dredging a channel having a width of 60 feet on bottom and a depth of 6 feet below mean low Gulf from its mouth to a point near the town of Crowley, La., a total distance of about 19 miles: The bayou is used principally for delivering fuel oil to the various rice pumping plants located along it, also for logging on a small scale. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 8,440 tons, valued at $118,850. Logs and fuel oil comprised about 95 per cent of the total. There are about eight or nine small gasoline boats, of from 4 to 5 tons, operating at different periods on the bayou. They are used for towing oil barges and also for logging operations. e WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1085 The only terminal is located about 1 mile above the head of the improvement, at the town of Crowley. The citizens of that town constructed a feeder canal about 1 mile long, which enters the bayou at the head of the improvement. They also constructed a large. warehouse, 50 by 80 feet, and a wharf, 7 by 80 feet, fronting the Warehouse. The wharf is equipped with suitable unloading device for unloading freight and merchandise in small lots. This is the only location on the improvement where a terminal is needed, and it is considered adequate for the commerce involved. The water front along the improvement is privately owned and contrôlled. g No terminal improvements are contemplated; those existing are considered adequate. Although the citizens of Crowley have gone to considerable expense in constructing a feeder canal and a large warehouse, with a view to opening trade relations with the adjacent country, practically no commerce has developed, and the improvement is used little, if any, for such shipping. However, the stream is used considerably for towing oil barges to the rice pumping plants located on the bayou and for logging on a small scale. The improvement is crossed about 8 miles above its mouth by the Southern Pacific Railroad, but there is no joint rail and water connection. Owing to the character of the commerce and that which is likely to develop in the future, no joint rail and water terminal is thought necessary. CALCASIEU RIVER AND PASS, LA. Calcasieu River flows in a general southerly direction to the Gulf of Mexico. About 25 miles from the Gulf it debouches into Calcasieu Lake, which is about 18 miles long. The connection between the lake and the Gulf, about 7 miles long, is known as Calcasieu Pass. The entire length of the stream is about 215 miles, but the portion under improvement extends from the mouth of the pass through Calcasieu Lake, up the river to Phillips Bluff, a distance of 97 miles. The project provides for two converging jetties at the Gulf en- trance of the pass and dredging between them, if necessary, to secure a 12-foot by 200-foot channel from the Gulf to the pass, so as to make the pass serve as a harbor; also for dredging of the bars at the head and foot of Calcasieu Lake to a depth of 8 feet, 80 feet wide, and constructing a stone revetment along the channel in the lower part of the lake; also for the improvement of the river from Phillips Bluff to its mouth by removing snags and overhanging trees, and by dredging. The stream is used extensively for logging, for shipping rice, mis- cellaneous freight, and general merchandise. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 614,615 tons, valued at $8,183,119, and 7,276 passengers. The tonnage consisted principally of logs, animals, boats, barges, etc.; rice, sand, cordwood, and miscellaneous merchandise; logs, cordwood, and sand comprised about 94 per cent of the total. The stern-wheel steamer Borealis Rea, a vessel of 89 tons, makes regular trips between Lake Charles and Cameron, carrying both freight and passengers. There are about 4 or 5 steam tugs, varying 1086 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. from 21 to 75 tons, used for towing logs; about 10 motor boats, from i. to 30 tons, used also for general towing purposes; and about 35 arges. - At Cameron, Hackberry, Grand Lake, and Wests Landing there are simple timber pile wharves, usually privately owned. At Lock- port the Clooney Shipyard constructs all types of water craft. The company owns a small private wharf. At Lake Charles, which is located on an enlargement of the Calcasieu River, called Lake Charles, there are several small wharves, walks, and bathhouses. The more important of these may be mentioned as follows: The Gulf Refining Co., the Standard Oil Co., and the Pierce Oil Co. own pile piers extending 195 to 385 feet into the lake; these piers are used as oil filling stations. The North American Land & Timber Co. owns a private galvanized-iron warehouse, 50 by 100 feet, with a projecting pile pier 12 by 200 feet. The West Lake & Lake Charles Transpor- tation Co. owns a semipublic pier, one for which the city has given a revocable permit. The ferry operating between Lake Charles and West Lake, the town on the opposite side of the lake, lands at this pier, which is well constructed and measures 60 by 75 feet, connected to land by an approach 275 feet long. Adjoining the ferry, wharf is one owned by the Take Charles & Cameron Transportation Co., the landing place of the Borealis Rev. It measures about 50 by 60 feet, and is of pile construction and in good condition. The ferry com- pany charges 25 cents per wagon load to all water carriers for docking and unloading, and the Lake Charles & Cameron Transportation Co. charges 10 cents per hundredweight to all competing water carriers. There are no unloading devices on any of the terminals mentioned. The Louisiana State Rice Milling Co. owns a large warehouse and mill on the lake, where it receives large shipments of rice, which it mills and ships by rail. The company has a portable unloading device of the endless-chain variety, which is mounted on a frame carriage. It is operated by electricity and is used for unloading rice from barges. The company charges $5 per day for the use of this unloader. There is a small private pile pier at this place, 12 by 70 feet. The Lake Charles Light, Ice & Water Works owns a small private pile wharf, 20 by 50 feet. The Lake Charles Rice & Milling Co. owns a private pile wharf, 10 by 25 feet. There is a sloping approach from the wharf to the mill, about 100 feet long. Rice is unloaded from barges to a truck, which is then hauled up the incline by cable. Above Lake Charles there are no terminals; boats land against the solid bank and load or discharge by hand. There are five large sawmills operating at Lake Charles, located on the improvement, varying in capacity from 90,000 to 175,000 feet per day. One is located at Lake Charles, three at Goosport, a suburb of Lake Charles, and one at West Lake. - The construction of the Intracoastal Waterway between the Cal- casieu and Sabine Rivers has opened trade relations between Lake Charles and Texas ports. There is no doubt that the commerce which will develop in the future will necessitate better terminals at Lake Charles. At the present time there is no public landing on the water front. It is believed the commerce on the improvement justi- fies the construction of a public terminal, which should consist of a publicly owned wharf of suitable dimensions to accommodate the commerce. A spur track, municipally owned, leading to this wharf WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1087 and connecting with the various railroads at Take Charles, would greatly facilitate the handling of freight, would probably decrease freight charges, and would possibly increase the water commerce. The ferry landing and the Borealis Rea: landing are open to all water carriers; the former charges 25 cents per wagon load, and the latter 10 cents per hundredweight. There are no municipally owned wharves. Private ownership extends to the water's edge. There is an interchange of traffic between the Southern Pacific Railroad and the Take Charles & Cameron Transportation Co., whereby through rates exist to points on Calcasieu River below Lake Charles. The boat company, however, has to haul the freight from the rail- road depot, about a mile distant, to its wharf, and vice versa. It is believed the existing joint rail and water terminal is sufficient to handle the commerce on the improvement. The railroads at Lake Charles are: Southern Pacific Railroad, Kansas City Southern Railroad, St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern Railroad, and Lake Charles & Northern Railroad. With the exception of a spur track belonging to the Southern Pacific Railroad leading to the water's edge, where freight is transferred directly from boat to cars, there are no physical connections between the railroads and the waterway. ă WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER, FACILITIES.

SPENCER COSBY, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. GALVESTON HARBOR, TEx. Galveston Harbor extends from the Gulf of Mexico through the jetties on Galveston Island and Bolivar Peninsula to Bolivar Roads where it connects with the ship channels to Galveston, Texas City, Houston, and Port Bolivar. The harbor lies between Galveston Island, Pelican Island, and Bolivar Peninsula, with an anchorage area of over 744 acres of over 30 feet depth. The existing project provides for two rubble stone jetties extend- ing from Galveston Island and Bolivar Peninsula gulfward to the 30-foot contour, and for a dredged channel 35 feet deep at mean low tide and 800 feet wide from the Gulf to Galveston Channel, a distance of 6 miles. With the exception of this latter feature the project was completed in the fiscal year 1910. Tidal scour assisted by dredging maintains a channel varying from 30 to 46 feet deep with a least width between 30-foot contours of 1,600 feet. There are no terminals on Galveston Harbor proper, as it forms solely the entrance to Galveston Bay and its tributaries. However, through this channel passes all the coastwise and foreign commerce of Galveston, Texas City, Port Bolivar and Houston, which, during the calendar year 1918, amounted to 3,829,218 tons valued at $536,330,538. This commerce includes exports to northern Euro- pean and Mediterranean ports, the West Indies, Mexico and Central America, Gulf and northern Atlantic ports of the United States, and imports from northern European and Mediterranean ports, the west coast of South America, the West Indies, Mexico and Central America, Gulf and northern Atlantic ports of the United States. Practically every size and type of vessel, from the larger freighters of eight and nine thousand tons to small sailing vessels of 800 tons, carried this freight in and out of the harbor, though the usual limits of draft for loaded vessels are about 20 to 29 feet. The steamship Indian cleared from Galveston on May 24, 1917, drawing 31.5 feet. CHANNEL TO PORT BOLIVAR, TEX. Port Bolivar, established primarily as a lumber export port, is located at the end of Bolivar Peninsula on the north end of Galves- ton Harbor 4 miles from the city of Galveston. The existing project provides for a channel 30 feet deep and 200 feet wide at bottom extending from Galveston Harbor to a turnin basin ' )00 feet square and 30 feet deep at mean low tide in front o the wharves. The project was completed in 1912, though shoaling since then has made the ruling depth in the channel about 18 feet. Notwithstanding this, however, the improvement still affords a deep-water port on Bolivar Peninsula effecting a large saving in 1113 1114 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. length of haul for lumber and logs from the east Texas lumber belt, and keeping rail rates from this section lower than would prevail were the improvement not in existence. The terminal facilities located at Port Bolivar consist of one pier 400 feet wide by 1,200 feet long with two slips, one being 1,140 feet long by 300 feet wide and the other 1,200 feet long by 210 feet wide. The wharf is of pile construction with sheet pile bulkheading all in good condition. Located on the pier is one wooden warehouse 140 feet wide by 800 feet long, and one lumber shed 120 feet wide by 504 feet long, giving the terminal a total covered storage capacity of 176,800 square feet. In one corner of the south slip is located the transfer apron used in transferring freight and passenger trains to and from Galveston by ferry. Railroad tracks run the full length of the pier connecting with the main line of the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railway. & The terminal is open to all water carriers on equal terms under published tariffs approved by the Interstate Commerce Commission and the State Railroad Commission of Texas. The Santa Fe Dock & Channel Co., a subsidiary of the Santa Fe Railway system, which owns the terminal, operates a barge line be- tween Galveston and Port Bolivar which is used in transferring freight and passenger trains between the two points by a three-track car float of a capacity of 18 freight cars. The amount of this traffic during the year 1918 was a movement of 3,415 freight cars with a freight tonnage of 88,740 tons, valued at $8,015,215. There are no highway connections with the terminal as it was primarily established for exporting lumber and other products from the east Texas timber belt, and all freight destined for transshipment is brought in by rail. As will be seen from the accompanying tariffs a stated charge is made for the unloading of lumber from cars to wharf or warehouse at Port Bolivar. These prices vary according to the kind of equipment used in handling the lumber, and a further charge for wharfage is assessed against all shipments handled at the port. Towing rates, pilotage, and all other port charges are the same as at Galveston. The storage facilities as noted above, are ample for all present needs, the traffic, due to the existing shortage of ships, being very light. Vessels may take water directly from the mains on the wharf, although coal, groceries, and other supplies must be brought from Galveston. As there are no mechanical appliances for handling the freight this, together with the lack of the above facilities, some- what impairs the general efficiency of the terminal, though its close roximity to these facilities at Galveston makes up for this in a arge measure. The interest shown in the improvements of the terminal facilities of Port Bolivar is evidenced by the owners purchasing, several years ago, the present site of their terminal at Galveston, which is used in conjunction with the car ferry. Dredging operations have been con- ducted from time to time and, during the year 1917 a narrow channel was dredged through a shoal in the turning basin at the entrance to their slip No. 3. H.

VIEW OF TERMINAL, TEXAS CITY, T.EX. 1115 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1115 CHANNEL TO TEXAS CITY, TEx. * Texas City, located on the mainland, is about 7% miles northwest of the city of Galveston. The terminals of this port have an outlet to the Gulf of Mexico by a channel 30 feet deep and 300 feet wide across the bay to Galveston Harbor, about 7 miles distant. . A clay spoil bank was thrown up on the north side of the channel for almost its full length, thus affording protection from shoaling. Texas City is a port for seagoing vessels, handling a large volume of business in competition with Galveston. The chief items of ex- port are bagging, cotton, flour, rice, wheat, and metals; the chief articles of import are fuel oil, general merchandise, sisal, and iron and steel manufactures. These commodities were carried in and out of the port by the usual type of freight steamers of about 3,000 registered tons and bulk-oil tankers of from 15,000 to 60,000 barrels capacity. The usual limits of draft for loaded vessels are from 20 to 23 feet. The terminal facilities at Texas City are all owned by the Texas City Transportation Co. though largely operated by the Texas City Terminal Co. These facilities occupy an improved water frontage, including slips, of 5,765 linear feet. There are three slips and two piers with modern, fireproof warehouses and rail facilities located thereon. The following table shows the dimensions and berthing capacity of the piers of the terminal company in linear feet and vessels of the average size.

The land ware- houses provide for the accumulation of cargo, which, as soon as one ship clears, can be brought by rail to the shipside without delay. In addition to the storage facilities noted above there is an oil dock on the south side of the south slip with pipe-line deliveries to and from steamers, a coal dock located just west of Pier E warehouse with a bin storage capacity of 40,000 tons, and a concrete grain elevator located at the inner end of the main slip with a storage capacity of 500,000 bushels. - A number of these wharves and warehouses are adequately equipped with mechanical appliances for the loading, unloading, and storin of freight, effecting a large saving in time and expense. Pier warehouse and the five land warehouses are all equipped with 2-ton overhead electric cranes for piling, storing, and handling freight. The crane in Pier C warehouse is also supplied with a magnet for handling iron, steel, and wire articles - At the coal dock there is an electric traveling bridge crane used for transferring coal, sulphur, ores, etc., from ships to cars and vice versa. This crane has a capacity of 1,500 tons per day. Two traveling steam locomotive hoisting cranes, each of 10 tons capacity, are used at the terminai wherever needed. The cotton compress located on the land west of Pier D warehouse is equipped with three compresses having Webb high-density side door attachments, enabling ordinary compressed cotton of 22.5 pounds density to the square foot to be recompressed into bales of 34 to 36 pounds density. This, of course, effects a large saving of cargo space. The combined capacity of these presses is 3,600 bales per 24 hours. Leading from the compress to Piers O and A there is a telpher monorail system 7,670 feet long for handling cotton from compress to shipside. This includes a high line with 1,200 feet of right of H.

The low line is propelled by hand. This system serves practically the whole of the north pier. As noted in the foregoing, the bunkering facilities of the terminal are of the best. Both coal and fuel oil are found at the inner end of the south slip with adequate loading devices for each. The Pierce Oil Corporation has three pipe lines, two 6-inch and one 8-inch, running from the refinery and storage tanks directly to the docks. The coal bin, having a storage capacity of 40,000 tons is tended by an electric traveling bridge crane with a loading capacity of 1,500 tons per day. These are considered adequate for ºf. existing de- mands of the traffic. The Texas City Terminal Co. also operates, in connection with the wharves and the other terminal facilities, the railroad owned by the Texas City Transporation Co. This railroad has an adequate number of sidings, switches, etc., serving the various piers and ware- houses, amounting to a total of 29.36 miles of track with an additional 6.38 miles connecting with the main lines entering Galveston which are described generally by the transportation interests of the country as the Galveston Bay Lines. The Texas City Terminal is governed by rules, rates, and regulations filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission, being open alike to all railroads and all water carriers on equal terms. Practically all of the tolls or charges of the terminal company, such as switching, load- ing and unloading, and wharfage charges, are paid out of the line- haul revenues of the Galveston Bay Lines, and the shippers are charged merely the published freight rates. There are no separate published tariffs showing the terms and conditions covering the use of the terminal or terminal railway properties, but the Galveston Bay Lines, by a trackage agreement with the Texas City Terminal Co. and the Texas City Transportation Co., so publish their tariff to and from Texas City on import, export, and domestic traffic that the Galveston Bay Lines rates apply to and from the terminal. They have, in many instances, under that publication, issued through-export bills of lading, to foreign countries and have handled through-import bills of lading. - The water terminals and rail connections are all served by modern improved highways, some of which are maintained by the city and county and the others by the Texas City Terminal Co. These connect with the city streets and the county highway to Galveston. But for the fact that there are no repair facilities here or at Texas City, this terminal could be considered a complete rail and water terminal. Dockage, storage, and bunkering facilities are fully ade- quate for the present needs of the port, while the methods of handling freight and the general arangement of the terminal itself are thoroughly efficient and up to date. GALVESTON CHANNEL, TEX. Galveston is the largest and most important port on the coast of Texas. It is located on Galveston Channel, which extends from the harbor and along the north side of Galveston Island to Forty-sixth Street, having a length of about 5 miles and a width of 1,200 feet with a ruling depth of about 30 feet. The spoil bank thrown up on 1118 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the north side of the channel has formed a strip of land about one- half mile wide and 4 miles long adjacent to deep water and opposite the city. This land is gradually being improved and developed industrially and eventually will double the capacity of the port. The existing project provides for further extension of the channek westward when the interests of navigation and commerce require it, maintenance of the present channel, and an extension of the existing seawall, which lies along the Gulf front of Galveston from its angle at Sixth Street to a point abreast of Fort San Jacinto, for the purpose of protecting the outer end of the channel from the effects of hurricanes. By providing a convenient outlet for the products of the Middle and Southw stern State th effect of these improvements has been to make Galveston during normal times, just previous to the past war, the second port in the United States in value of exports and the largest cotton port in the world. All sizes and types of vessels handle the commerce of the port. There are 28 regularly established foreign steamship lines and two coastwise lines with scheduled sailings between Galveston and New York, as well as frequent tramp sailings both coastwise and foreign. The average foreign-going steamship ranges from 3,000 to 6,000 tons, while the coastwise steamers average about 4,000 tons. The usual limits of draft of these vessels loaded are about 20 to 30 feet. During the calendar year 1918 the total amount of commerce handled at Galveston was 3,277,782 tons, valued at $480,870,984, composed of cotton, cotton products, wheat, barley, rice, flour, cop- per, lead and zinc, manufactured iron and steel, and forest products as the chief exports; and of fuel oil, fruits, sisal, sugar, manufactured products, and general merchandise as the chief imports. The terminal facilities at Galveston are the most extensive on the Gulf coast west of the Mississippi River. They are located on the north side of the city, extending from Ninth Street to Forty-sixth Street, a distance of about 2% miles, with an additional mile on Pelican Island directly opposite on the north side of the channel. These facilities consist of wooden piers, with slips between varying in length from 600 to 1,400 feet and from 170 to 250 feet in breadth, with large wooden, metal, or concrete warehouses located thereon. In all, there is berthing capacity for 67 average-size ocean-going steamships. In addition to these storage and berthing facilities, many of the wharves are equipped with modern mechanical appliances for loading and unloading, and ample bunkering and repair facilities are conveniently located. Beginning at the east end of the wharf front at Ninth Street is the transfer wharf owned and operated by the Santa Fe Dock & Channel Co. This is used in conjunction with the Port Bolivar terminal in transferring trains between the two points, and does not provide wharfage or storage facilities of any kind. The pier is of Creosoted pile construction, having a hinged tide apron which is raised and lowered by counterweights. The railroad company also Owns and operates the barge and tug used in transferring the trains and both are considered efficient and in good condition. Two Scheduled trips with passenger trains are made daily, while the number of freight trips varies according to necessity. This, during the year 1918, amounted to a transfer of 3,415 freight cars. This ferry WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1119 effects a saving of over 66 miles of haul between Galveston and Beaumont, Tex., thus reducing freight rates, conserving rolling stock, and shortening the distance between interior points and tidewater. As the terminal is used only for the transfer of trains, no highway connections exist or are considered necessary. Being primarily a rail connecting link, the terminal has direct connections with all railroads entering Galveston. It is operated under the control of the Inter- state Commerce Commission and the State Railroad Commission of Texas under published tariffs, although the terminal is used by the owners exclusively. Considering the limited use to which the terminal is put it is quite adequate and efficient for its present traffic. Tt is understood that this company contemplates a thorough development of its 3,000 feet of channel frontage as soon as conditions will permit. Extending from Tenth Street west to Forty-first Street along Gal- veston Channel are the terminals of the Galveston Wharf Co. These wharves occupy a total channel frontage of 12,400 linear feet, or a dockage, including slips, of 23,490 linear feet. The following table shows the dimensions and berthing capacity of the several piers of the wharf company in linear feet and in vessels of the average size: Galveston Wharf Co. piers. * Vessels. * VeSSels. .

Most of these piers are separated by long, roomy slips which permit, when neces- sary, the breasting in of three ships in a slip, thus increasing the capacity of the port and allowing an exchange of cargoes between ships without interrupting the discharge or loading of freight from the wharves. In all, there are 11 slips, four of which are used for small shallow draft fish, oyster, and local freight boats. Galveston Wharf Co. slips. e g Length, Length, Averag - Location of slips. east side.

II.2.1 In addition to the storage facilities noted above there are three grain elevators on the property of the Galveston Wharf Co., having a total capacity of 2,600,000 bushels. These are all on the water front and have rapid conveyors extending to the vessel berths. Grain elevators located on Galveston Wharf Co. property. Elevator. Location. Owner or agent. ‘º Remarks.

Single-deck steamers of 5,000 tons capacity can be loaded in bulk, trimmed, and ready for sea in about a day and a half. As Galveston is the nearest well-equipped outlet for the large grain fields of the South and West it has become the second largest wheat export port in the United States. - A number of the wharves and warehouses are equipped with me- chanical appliances for handling freight to and from shipboard, thus effecting the quick turn around of vessels and a large saving in time and expense. - Piers 23 to 27, which are used by the Mallory Steamship Co., have electric freight escalators. These carry the truckers with their loaded trucks from the vessel's between decks up to the wharf level. This type of escalator not only saves time but reduces labor. This company is also well supplied with electric storage battery trucks of 2,000 pounds capacity, affording rapid distribution of freight through- out the warehouse. Several of the cotton warehouses are supplied with large electric trucks of 25 bales capacity, while others still use the 3-mule “float.” The electric truck is quite a departure from the latter method and means a vast saving in time and expense. The Galveston Coal Co.'s plant at Pier 34 is equipped with a standard Boston steeple tower with boom which lowers down and extends directly over the beam of vessel. One 23-ton clamshell bucket with Lidgerwood rapid conveying apparatus operates through the tower on a steel railway track 36 feet above the wharf. This bucket travels at the rate of 800 feet per minute and can load or unload over 1,400 tons per day. All of the grain elevators are equipped with electric conveyors and chutes to ship side, making the supply of grain to the vessel as rapid as trimming will allow. At Pier 20 the United Fruit Co. has erected three traveling electric conveyors, which have been used for unloading bananaships. The con- veyors are lowered into the hold of the vessels, where they are loaded by hand, and the bananas are carried up and deposited at the doors of the refrigerator cars alongside. These conveyors have a capacity of 2,000 bunches per hour each. At present this plant is not in use. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—71 1122 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Pier 41 is equipped with two electric traveling gantry cranes of 13 tons capacity. These cranes can handle freight between the ship and the second story of the warehouse, thus doing away with the necessity for elevators and escalators in a double-deck warehouse. In addition, this pier has an elevated railroad track running the full length of the pier with car floor level with second-story floor of the warehouse, thus doing away with rehandling between upper and lower floors. * The majority of the piers of the Galveston Wharf Co., however, are entirely ſacking in mechanical freight-handling appliances, the “whip” and ship's tackle being used almost exclusively. Most of the warehouses are single-story buildings adequately supplied with rail- road facilities, which, except in the case of one-commodity piers, are considered as efficient and economical as can be designed. This con- clusion is based on the fact that the general type of cargoes handled at these terminals requires so much sorting that mechanical devices do not allow enough flexibility to be truly economical. The package freight handled by the coastwise steamers requires such a great amount of sorting that a combination of both hand and motor trucks proves to be the most economical method. In the case of cotton, which under normal times is the largest commodity shipped out of the port, this, with the aid of a few hand and motor trucks, together with the ship's tackle and skids, can be supplied to the hold much faster than it can be “screwed” or properly stowed. The antry cranes at Pier 41 may be *idº' efficient in that they #. handling directly to and from the second story without the further use of elevators or escalators. It is believed, however, that present designs of mechanical freight- handling appliances, due to their lack of flexibility, are truly econom- ical only in the case of one-commodity terminals, such as Pier 20 of the United Fruit Co. or Pier 34 of the Clinchfield Fuel Co. In connection with its wharves, the Galveston Wharf Co. operates a railroad which receives and delivers at the various junction points of the other railroads centering here all cars containing freight destined for or received at its wharves. There are over 40 miles of track, sidings, switches, etc., furnishing a car-storage capacity of over 1,100 cars, and efficiently serving every pier and warehouse. In nearly all of the covered wharves the floors are elevated to the height of the car floors, the tracks of which run almost parallel to the shipside. This permits of direct loading or unloading from car to ship, thus facilitating a rapid movement of freight. This system of transferring freight prevents congestion of carts, trucks, and wagons at the wharves. This terminal operates under the accompanying tariff and is open to all water carriers on equal terms. There does exist, how- ever, between some of the water carriers and the railroads serving the territory a mutual contract for the interchange of traffic by pro- rating such long-distance traffic as may be desired to be carried artly by rail and partly by water. Such a contract for the ship- ment of freight between Galveston and New York exists with the Mallory Steamship Co. As at other ports, however, through bills of lading are issued by the railroads to foreign ports, the shipper or º agent making his own agreement with the water carrier as to the rates. H.

The wharf company has constructed adequate modern highways about the terminals along the water front, and situated as it is along the northern edge º: the city, all of these have direct connec- tions with the city streets. f -- Extending west of the Galveston Wharf Co., along the channel, is the property of the Southern Pacific Terminal Co. This company owns a channel frontage of 4,290 feet, of which 1,350 feet is devel- oped, giving a wharfage, including slips, of 6,890 feet. There are three piers and two slips, having a berthing capacity of seven average- size ships. The slips, known as A and B, have the following dimen- SIOIAS .

At Pier A there are two creosote-oil storage tanks of 20,000 barrels capacity each. At the inner end of Slip B is located the fabricati g plant and warehouse of the Texas Carnegie Steel Associa- tion, which has a capacity of 10,000 tons of structural-steel stock. 1124 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Most of these wharves and warehouses are equipped with mechan- ical appliances for handling the freight to and from shipboard. The warehouse of the Texas Carnegie Steel Association is equipped with various types and sizes of electrical cranes and a tram push car, leading from the end of the slip into the warehouse. The fuel-oil storage tanks on Pier C are equipped with a pumping plant and heating system, with a 10-inch pipe line to steamer berth at Pier C for discharging oil from steamers, and an 8-inch pipe line with heater pipes to the three berths at Pier B for bunkering oil- burning steamers. Loading racks for tank cars are located at Pier C having a capacity of 60 tank cars per day. The creosote-storage tanks on Pier A are also equipped with pump- ing plant and heating system and an 8-inch pipe line to steamer berth on Pier A for discharging oil from the steamers to the storage tanks. These storage tanks are also supplied with a loading rack having a capacity of 14 tank cars per day, and which may also be used for handling fuel oil. - Pier B warehouses are equipped with four electric freight esca- lators. These are similar to those used at the Mallory Wharf and are used to carry the truckers with their loaded trucks from the vessel's between decks to the wharf level. Ample railroad tracks run the full length of the piers, adequately serving the ship's side and all warehouses. The cargoes of the Mor- gan Line ships consist mostly of package freight, and this is loaded directly into the cars as fast as it can be sorted. Under this system it is handled as economically and as efficiently as possible. The Southern Pacific Terminal Co. operates its railway in connec- tion with the terminal. Ample trackage, sidings, switches, etc., are provided, facilitating the rapid interchange of traffic between water and all local railroads. Ample car-storage facilities are provided both at the terminal and in the yards of the Southern Pacific Co., there being a combined capacity of 3,300 cars. Three parallel tracks run the full length of the apron at Pier B, thus affording rapid sorting of freight at ship side, while numerous other tracks divide the ware- houses conveniently. - This terminal operates under the same tariff as the Galveston Wharf Co. The wharves of the Southern Pacific Terminal Co. are used principally by one of its subsidiary companies, the Atlantic Steamship }. more commonly known as the Morgan Line, for coastwise traffic between Galveston and New York. Pier B is uti- lized exclusively by the ships of this line, while Pier A is given over to the use of foreign ships for export trade and is open to all such carriers on equal terms. The cargoes handled at Pier A consist almost entirely of grain and all charges for loading same are covered by an agreement between the J. Rosenbaum Grain Co. and the shipper or consignee, as the case may be. All other commodities, such as coal, lumper, etc., are covered by the Texas Lines Tariff 21-B. The cargoes of the Morgan Line ships in many cases are shipped under through bills of lading over the Southern Pacific system. As both rail and water carriers are under one ownership, no contract for prorating such long-distance traffic need exist. - tº WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1125 The terminal company has constructed adequate modern highways about the terminals along the water front, all of which have direct connections with the city streets. - The bunkering facilities at the port of Galveston are fully adequate to care for all vessels calling at the port. Both coal and fuel oil are constantly available in ample quantities with the most efficient appliances for rapidly filling bunkers.

The port of Galveston is well equipped with marine repair facilities of all kinds, capable of making any necessary repairs on vessels calling at the port. #. docks, marine ways, and various kinds of shops are regularly engaged in making repairs to steel and wooden vessels, the work ranging from rebuilding old hulks to making all classes of necessary repairs to engines, boilers, propellers, etc. Six of these plants are conveniently located along Galveston Channel, and four in the city in close vicinity to the water front. The spoil bank along the northern edge of the channel is rapidly being developed by this industry, five plants operating there at the present time.

Port charges at Galveston compare very favorably with other ports of the country. Pilotage rates are somewhat lower than at many other ports, and these are fixed by the State. Towage, however, is controlled by the local towboat interests. The charges for shed hire are for the accumulating of cargoes and discharging vessels and apply only to the warehouses of the Galveston Wharf Co. Assignments of regular berths at the wharves are made yearly at regular stated charges per annum. The company reserves the right, however, to use any space not in use by the party to whom assigned. In the case where the import rate as given in the following table applies, an additional charge of 1 cent per ton per day or fractional part thereof is made against vessels that do not load an outbound cargo, commencing 24 hours after discharge of ship. If vessel loads an outbound cargo, however, this charge will be waived and export charges applied. . The Galveston Wharf Co. charges $100 per vessel for vessels fitting up for loading or waiting to load a full cargo of grain from elevators not located on the property of this company, three full days being allowed. If the vessel remains longer than three days an ad- ditional charge is made of 1 cent per gross registered ton per day or fractional part thereof. ... • - Stevedore charges vary on different commodities, and, due to frequent fluctuations of the union labor rate, are not given in this report, though they are generally somewhat lower than at northern and western, ports. 1128 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

A harbor master, however, is appointed by the city, who performs the usual duties of that office, and while the city has no other direct con- trol over the port, it owns one-third of the stock of the Galveston Wharf Co., the principal terminal company at the port, and is repre- sented on its board of nine directors by the mayor and two of the four city commissioners. . In addition to the above the city owns all of the land west of the United States immigration station on Pelican Spit, having a channel frontage of 23,200 feet. About 4,000 feet of this frontage is leased by the city to various concerns at very low rental. The remainder of this land is susceptible to easy development, which, when completed, will double the capacity of the port. At the present time plans and esti- mates are under consideration by the city for building a municipal railroad across the west end of the channel to connect this land with the local railroads entering Galveston. The existing improvements made by the United States are entirely adequate for the present demands of navigation and commerce. West of the present limits of the channel there is, however, an un- developed water frontage of about 15,000 feet on Galveston Island owned by the State, by several individuals, and by corporations which, when developed, will necessitate further extension of Gal- veston Channel. - The general efficiency of the port as a whole is considered to be very high. This is accounted for in a great measure by the method in which the water front has been laid out—a group of rail and water terminals planned as a unified, connected whole. This direct meeting of rail and water carriers, it is believed, is the most rapid and eco- nomical method of handling the freight, doing away with a great deal of the usual congestion of carts, drays, and wagons, and facilitating the quick release of ships, with a consequent increased service from Ocean tonnage. HOUSTON SHIP CHANNEL, TEX. Leading from Galveston Harbor and extending in a northwesterly direction for 50 miles across Galveston Bay and through the San Jacinto River a channel has been dredged to Houston on Buffalo Bayou. The existing project provides for a channel 30 feet deep and 250 feet wide across Galveston Bay and 150 feet wide in the river section to a turning basin at the head of Long Reach about 1,000 feet wide and 30 feet deep. Further provision is made for a light draft extension of this channel 8 feet deep and 40 feet wide through Buffalo Bayou to the foot of Main Street in Houston, Tex., and the construction of a dike to protect the channel in upper Galveston Bay. In its present condition, the ship channel is only 150 feet wide and 25 feet deep, with a turning basin 600 feet wide, this having been º 1130 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. completed in the year 1914. . A tributary channel has been dredged to the Goose Creek oil field which has a ruling depth of about 7 feet. These improvements have established Houston as a separate port of entry. Water rates are now applied to Houston, the port being on a parity with Galveston and Texas City although 50 miles farther inland. Regular coastwise sailings between Philadelphia and Hous- ton have been established, and several industrial plants have been constructed along the channel. During the calendar year 1918 a total of 162,125 tons of commerce was moved over the channel, 80 per cent of which was crude oil. This commerce was carried in typical coastwise steamers of about 3,000 tons and large bulk oil- tank ships and barges. The usual limits of draft of these vessels are from 16 to 22 feet. The terminal facilities of the ship channel are, with the exception of a local freight wharf on Buffalo Bayou, all located at the turning basin, and are owned by the city of Houston and known as the Hous- ton Municipal Wharves. The improved channel frontage amounts to 3,730 linear feet, consisting of creosoted pile and concrete wharves built along the banks of the channel and turning basin, with adequate warehouses situated thereon. The following table describes the various wharves: The Houston municipal wharves. Wharf. - Type. [length. sº & Feet. WeSSels.

In addition to this there are two other warehouses situated on the land back of the wharves of 211,498 square feet area, making a total covered storage area at the terminal of 587,989 square feet.

In addition to these storage facilities there is an uncovered area of 188,592 square feet located convenient to the wharves and warehouses. * .A number of the warehouses are adequately equipped with modern mechanical appliances for loading, unloading, and handling freight. At wharf No. 1 there is an electric freight escalator which is used for carrying the truckers with their loaded trucks from the vessels between decks up to the wharf level, Wharf No. 4 is equipped with three of these escalators and is considered very efficient. Wharf No. 4 is also equipped with a 20-ton electric crane for han- dling heavy freight from shipside to cars or into the storage ware- house. These two warehouses are used in conjunction with each other, there being two 8-ton Otis elevators for lifting loaded trucks from the floor of wharf No. 4 to the floor level of the storage warehouse back of it. - The cotton sheds are completely equipped with a Fordyce cotton trolley conveyor system which connects the three sheds with one another and with the wharf front. The city of Houston owns all the railroad facilities at the terminal. This consists of ample trackage, sidings, switches, etc., which ade- quately serve all wharves and warehouses. There are about 10 miles of terminal railway tracks which connect with the various railroads entering Houston. The tracks on the south side of the turning basin connect directly with the tracks of the International & Great Northern Railway and Galveston, Harrisburg & San Antonio Railway. These are operated by the Jnternational & Great Northern Railway and the Houston Belt & Terminal Railway, as a part of their unified terminals. The tracks serving the cotton sheds on the north side of the turning basin connect directly with the Gal- veston, Harrisburg & San Antonio Railway. No charges are made on shipments handled over the city's tracks at the terminal other than the regular railroad tariff. The terminal railroad is operated by the International & Great Northern Railroad and the Houston Belt & Terminal Railway, under contract with the city whereby the city controls the rate situation, thus assuring fair treatment to all concerned. - Traffic may be interchanged directly between rail and water at all of the wharves and all railroads will issue through bills of lading to and from interior points and northern ports, though the majority of shipments are billed to this point and reshipped by the consignor or his agent. There does not exist, however, any mutual contract for the interchange of traffic by prorating as to such long-distance traffic as may be desired to be carried partly by rail and partly by water to its destination. - All of the wharves are connected with each other and with the city streets of Houston by improved modern highways. There are no coaling facilities on the ship channel, though fuel oil is found in ample quantities. Three companies maintain plants on the channel with a total storage capacity of over 180,000 barrels. These are described as follows: FUEL OIL FACILITIES-HOU STON SHIP CHANNEL. Magnolia Petroleum Co. * Location: Manchester, 2 miles below turning basin. Pipe line: One 8-inch pipe line. Storage capacity: 55,000 barrels. * 1132 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Gulf Pipe Line Co. Location: Lynchburg, 16 miles below turning basin. Loading capacity: 17,000 barrels per hour. Storage capacity: 125,000 barrels. The Texas Co. * º Location: Milepost 46, 4 miles below turning basin. Capacities: Unobtainable. There are no repair facilities at the port of Houston, though many marine repairs such as castings, forgings, etc., may be made at plants located in the city. In addition to the wharves at the turning basin the city of Houston maintains a local freight wharf on Buffalo Bayou at the foot of Main Street in Houston. This waterway is a light draft extension of the ship channel, about 7 miles long, 8 feet deep, and 40 feet wide. A large number of barges, scows, and gasoline launches of from 3 to 10 net tons capacity use this waterway in local freight business with various points on San Jacinto River and Galveston Bay. During the calendar year 1918 a total of 1,715,808 tons of freight valued at $86,402,770 was moved over this section of the channel, practically all of which emanated from the Main Street wharf. This terminal consists of an open earth-filled wharf inclosed by a concrete bulkhead 572 feet long. As this is practically new it is in good condition, and the depth of water at this point is about 8 feet. There are no warehouse or railroad facilities and neither are con- sidered necessary. As the terminal is located at the foot of Main Street in the city of Houston it has adequate highway connections with the city streets. - This wharf is open to the public use, and there is no charge for wharfage or tolls of any kind. Further development in this locality is not considered necessary at the present time as this wharf is adequate to handle efficiently all existing commerce. The administration of the port of Houston is vested in a board of harbor commissioners, consisting of the mayor and five commis- sioners, whose administration is subject to the approval of the city council. The members of the board of harbor commissioners are appointed by the mayor, subject to the confirmation of the city council, and they serve without compensation. The actual manage- ment of the affairs of the harbor department is in the hands of the secretary of the harbor board who attends to all matters coming within the jurisdiction of the harbor department, subject to the approval of the above-mentioned authorities. At the present time the secretary, of the harbor board is also acting as engineer for the navigation district, a board of three commissioners which, while having nothing to do with the city administration, attends to the financing of the improvements of the ship channel proper. There is also a harbor master employed at the turning basin and a wharf master employed at the Main Street wharf who perform the usual duties of that office. The harbor board has possession and control of the entire Houston ship channel water front from Main Street down to and including Morgan Point, together with all navigable waters within the limits of the city. . The board also has authority to use, for the loading and landing of merchandise, with a right to collect dockage, wharfage, or tolls thereon, the portions of the streets and other public property terminating or fronting on the ship channel or other navigable waters WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1133 within the city limits, without obstructing same as public thorough- fares. There are various other powers of the harbor board which, however, may be summed up by stating that they have general control of the port. - The interest shown by the people of Houston in the various im- provements under way from time to time has been unusually great and earnest. In compliance with the river and harbor act approved June 25, 1910, the citizens of Harris County, Tex., contributed the sum of $1,206,297.85, being one-half the cost of constructing the ship channel to a depth of 25 feet, and in accordance with the river and harbor act approved March 4, 1913, they contributed the sum of $200,000 as ...; the cost of building two pipe-line dredges for maintenance of the channel. The city of Houston also snagged and redredged the upper section of the bayou at a cost of $46,625.78, besides removing a total of 1,592,330 cubic yards of material in enlarging the turning basin. In addition to these improvements, the city has constructed modern wharves and warehouses and adequate railroad facilities at the turning basin. There was a great decrease in ships and shipping out of Houston during the recent war, but the interested parties are redoubling their efforts to secure more tonnage now that conditions are returning to normal. The general efficiency of the terminal is considered to be very good for all of the present demands of traffic. Freight handling and rail- road facilities are operated very economically, while storage facili- ties are ample for the accumulation of large cargoes. Wider devel- opment of trade, however, will demand coaling and repair facilities, and, unless these are supplied, vessels requiring such will have to be diverted to Galveston, causing a loss of time and a corresponding loss of active ocean tonnage. © EAST BAY BAYOU (HANNA REEF), TEX. There are no terminals except very small private wharves and landings for use of the owner in shipping farm produce and oysters. None of these have railway connections. There is one small wharf or landing on Mud Bayou, a tributary of East Bay Bayou, about one mile from the town of High Island, on the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railway, which has a public highway, surfaced with shell, leading to it from the town. The present wharves seem to be suitable and adequate to care for the existing commerce, and no publicly owned terminals are considered necessary under present conditions. DOUBLE BAYOU, TEX. There are no terminals on this waterway except very small wharves and landings for the use of the owner in shipping rice and farm prod- uce out, and groceries and merchandise in. None of these, however, have railway or improved highway connections. The light-draft gasoline freight boats using the stream stop on signal at these private landings, where outgoing freight is received and orders taken for inbound freight. As the farming community is scattered and there is no town on the bayou at which a public wharf could be erected which would conveniently serve all the people, such a publicly owned terminal is not considered necessary under the pres– ent conditions. The present system of handling the freight appears o be best suited to the existing conditions and fully adequate to ..are for all present commerce. 1134 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. ANAHUAC CHANNEL, TEX. The water terminals of this improvement are located at the inner end of the channel on the west side of the town of Anahuac, about 38 miles north of Galveston. The channel is about 3 miles long and 80 feet wide, extending from the 6-foot depth in the bay at mean low tide to the slip and wharf at Anahuac. This was completed in 1911, though shoaling since then has made the ruling depth about 3 feet. The terminal facilities consist of a slip about 60 feet wide and 100 feet long, bulkheaded with Creosoted sheet piles, with a small wharf and fish packing house along the north side of the slip. This terminal is owned by J. E. Broussard, of Anahuac, and is used by him in con- nection with a general store and a line of freight boats supplying the farming community of this section. - There are no railroad connections with the terminal, although a good public road connecting with the county highways leads to the slip and wharf. As there is no railroad communication with this locality, there is no interchange of traffic between rail and water. A large amount of rice and other farm produce is brought in by wagon and shipped by barge and small gasoline freight boats to the mills at Galveston and Houston, and all groceries, merchandise, and other supplies used by the community are brought in by boat. The terminal is open to the free use of the public at all times, and is apparently suitable to all existing conditions of local traffic. For this reason there is no desire or necessity for a publicly owned water terminal at this point. The locality has evinced unusual interest in the development of this waterway. The slip at the terminal was dredged with United States plant, the cost being paid by local interests. In 1912, there being no Government plant available, a dipper dredge was loaned by the city of Houston and the channel redredged, the United States paying only the cost of operation. WATERWAYS WITH FEW OR. UNIMPORTANT TERMINALS. On the following waterways there are no terminals except a few small unimportant private wharves or landings, and as these adequately serve the needs of commerce, publicly owned terminals. are not considered necessary: Mouth of Trinity River, Turtle Bayou, Cedar Bayou, Clear Creek, Dickinson Bayou, Chocolate Bayou, Bastrop Bayou, Oyster Creek, West Galveston Bay and Brazos River Canal, and Brazos River, Old Washington to Velasco. CHANNEL BETWEEN BRAZOS RIVER AND MATAGORDA BAY, TEX. The terminal facilities on this waterway are located at the mouth of the Brazos River and at the town of Matagorda on Matagorda Bay. Those at the mouth of the Brazos are described under the report on Freeport Harbor. The facilities at Matagorda consist of two small piers which are given up entirely to the fish and oyster industries. These pile-constructed piers extend about 1,200 feet out from the town of Matagorda into the bay, terminating at shell dumps upon which small packing houses have been built. These terminals are described as !. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1135 Water terminals at Matagorda, Tez. Owner. º: Warehouses. Feet. ſº W. G.

Total.............. 90 7,764 square feet. This storage area is considered ample for the amount of traffic handled at this point. There are no railroad connections with either of these terminals, though both have improved shell roads leading from the wharves over the mud flats to the city streets of Matagorda and the county highways. All freight shipped out, therefore, has to be drayed five or six hundred yards to the local railroad terminal. Due to the perishable nature of the freight practically all of it is shipped by express to interior points, the tariff being 95 cents per 100 pounds of fish per 100 miles, and 77 cents per 100 pounds of oysters per 100 miles. Both of these water terminals, though owned and operated by private industries, are open to the free use of the public at all times. * The general efficiency of both of these terminals would be con- sidered all that is necessary for the demands of the traffic were it not for the available depth which, at mean low tide, is about 14 inches. The continual shoaling in the bay has brought about a yearly loss of traffic of from 12 to 50 per cent, and during the winter season, when the water is unusually depressed, hardly 40 per cent of the boats on the regular run can make a landing at the wharves. This, of course, necessitates lightering, effecting a great loss of time and an increase in expenses. GUADALUPE RIVER TO VICTORIA, TEX. This river has its source in western Texas, flowing southeast a distance of 289 miles, emptying into the head of San Antonio Bay. The sections under improvement are from Victoria to the mouth, a distance of 52 miles, and the bay section, 16 miles across San Antonio Bay to the main line of the inland waterway. The existing project provides for dredging a channel in the bay section 5 feet deep at mean low tide and 40 feet wide, and the removal of snags, log rafts, and shoals in the river section. The project was completed in 1912, though, due to freshets, the desired through depth has never been obtained. The channel across San Antonio Bay and the river at ordinary stages has a ruling depth of about 24 feet. The terminal facilities are located at Seadrift on the east shore of San Antonio Bay and at Victoria. These on the bay section consist of a narrow pile pier owned by the J. S. Collins Fish & Oyster Co. which extends about 450 feet out into the bay with a wharf 18 feet wide and 70 feet long, and a small frame packing house located at the outer end. This building, used primarily for opening oysters, has a floor area of 720 square feet, and is used in conjunction with a fish house and ice vault located on shore. 1136 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. There are no railway connections with the terminal, though high- way connections exist with the city streets and county highways. A railway spur from the St. Louis, Brownsville & Mexico Railroad runs down to the fish house, however, and while it is not used for an inter- change of traffic, it is used to a great extent to bring in shipments of ice. All shipments of freight have to be drayed several hundred yards to the local railroad terminal, whence they go to the interior by express. The terminal is open to the free use of the public at all times and is apparently suitable to all existing conditions of local traffic. For this reason there is no desire or necessity for a publicly owned water terminal at this point. The general efficiency of the terminal is considered as good as the nature of the commerce will permit. There is at no time any con- gestion at the wharf or of freight in the warehouses, and all handling is done very economically. - The terminal facilities located on the river section at Victoria, Tex., are owned by the Guadalupe River Navigation Co., which is engaged solely in dredging, washing, and shipping sand and gravel. The river bank on which the plant is located is about 25 feet above ordinary stages of the water. This is bulkheaded with round piles at the water's edge for a distance of about 300 feet and with an inner concrete bulkhead the full height of the bank for a distance of 30 feet at the unloading point. The company operates in connection with their terminal one sand and One gravel dredge, both of the endless-chain-bucket type, and several barges and gasoline tow boats. The barges when filled are brought up to the plant and made fast to the bulkhead where they are unloaded. This is accomplished by a 64-foot structural steel boom derrick of 10 tons capacity, with a 14-ton capacity clam-shell bucket, all oper- ated by a 40-horsepower steam engine. The sand and gravel is hoisted out of the barges and deposited in an elevated washing plant, whence it is loaded directly through chutes into cars. The terminal is connected with all local railroads by a spur line running through the plant. This is owned and operated jointly by the Galveston, Harrisburg & San Antonio Railway and the St. Louis, Brownsville & Mexico Railway, and no charges are made other than the regular freight rates. The only interchange of traffic, however, is from water to rail. An unimproved road connects the terminal with the city streets of Victoria, and a great deal of the sand and gravel for local use is ‘hauled over it by wagons. The general efficiency of the terminal is very good. Being prac- tically a one-commodity terminal, and this all handled in bulk, its mechanical appliances prove very efficient. It is believed by local parties that a publicy owned water terminal located somewhere in the vicinity of Bridge Street at Victoria would be very desirable if the river could be kept open between that point and its mouth. A terminal at this location need only consist of several hundred feet of pile bulkheading with earth fill and con- venient railroad sidings. This would afford an economical inlet for cotton and other farm produce and an outlet for groceries, hardware, and other farm supplies. Such a project is not to be considered prac tical, however, until means are devised for keeping the river open at all times. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1137 CHANNEL FROM PASS CAVALLO TO PORT LAVACA, TEX. The water terminals on this waterway are located at Port Lavaca, Tex., at the head of Lavaca Bay. The existing project provides for dredging a channel 7 feet deep at mean low tide and 80 feet wide from deep water in lower Matagorda Bay to Port Lavaca, a distance of about 8 miles. The improvement was completed in 1910, though shoaling since then has made the ruling depth about 6 feet. This waterway is used to a great extent by the numerous gasoline and sail boats engaged in the fish and oyster industry. . During the calendar year 1918 a total of 14,908 tons of freight valued at $140,382 moved over the channel. The terminal facilities at Port Lavaca consist of four small wharves, three of which are used exclusively by fish and oyster packing indus- tries. These wharves are described in the following table: Terminals at Port Lavaca, Tea. Owner. Location. Length of dockage. Description. Port Lavaca Fish & Oyster Co. Fºr Channel & Dock O. F. V.

Consists of channel 100 feet wide leading from Lavaca Bay into a basin 140 feet by 400 feet inclosed by pile bulkheading; has one pile wharf 191 feet long and an additional unloading place 135 feet long, and two warehouses with a total floor area of about 2,400 square feet. Floor area 11,800 square feet. There are no railway connections with any of these piers, all freight destined for the interior having to be drayed several hundred yards The three fish and oyster industries ship all their commerce by railway express under the regular rates of these companies. - The terminals of the Port Lavaca Fish & Oyster Co. and the Fisher Channel & Dock Co. are open to the free use of the public at all times, while the F.

The interchange of traffic between rail and water at Port Lavaca is mostly made up of the fish and oyster shipments from water to rail, though occasionally cotton and feed stuffs are brought in and trans- shipped to Galveston by water. No through bills of lading, however, are issued either way. -> - The general efficiency of these terminals is considered all that is necessary for the present demands of traffic. . There is at no time any congestion at the wharves or of the freight in the warehouses, and all handling is done very economically. A publicly owned water terminal is not considered necessary or desirable at the present time, as those described above are apparently adequate to handle the existing traffic, and are open to all on equal terms. Also, it is understood that the Fisher Channel & Dock Co. contemplate the full development of its property as soon as con- ditions will warrant such improvements. CHANNEL FROM PASS CAVALLO TO ARANSAS PASS, TEX. This channel is about 63 miles in length, extending from the west end of Matagorda Bay to Aransas Pass. The existing project pro- vides for a i. 5 feet deep at mean low tide and 40 feet wide from the head of Pass Cavallo in Matagorda Bay to the entrance of Turtle Cove at Aransas Pass. The channel is tidal throughout and has a mean tidal range of about three-fourths of a foot under ordinary conditions. This improvement, a component part of the inland waterway system, has established waterway communication between Galveston and Corpus Christi, a distance of 202 miles, reducing the freight rates on commodities handled by water 40 to 60 per cent of the rate charged by the railroads. In addition to this it has opened up large areas of Oyster beds and fishing grounds to this community. Dur- ing the calendar year 1918, a total of 3,188 tons of commerce valued at $261,213 was handled over the terminals along the line of this channel. This was carried in barges and light-draft gasoline and sail boats of from three to ten net registered tons capacity. The terminal facilities on this waterway are located at Port O'Con- nor, Rockport, Portland (Aransas County), and Port Aransas. Those at Port Aransas are described under that heading. At Port O'Connor on Matagorda Bay opposite Pass Cavallo there is a narrow pile pier extending from shore out to deep water in the bay with a small wharf 70 feet long at the end. This is owned by Edward M. Riva, and is used exclusively by him in the fish and oyster industry. It is in good condition and is capable of handling all the present traffic at this point. - - - There are no improved highways or railroad connections with the terminal, and all freight has to be drayed to the local railroad terminal, where it is shipped by express. The terminal at Portland is located on the east shore of Live Oak Peninsula on Aransas Bay about 4 miles west of the channel. This terminal consists of a narrow pile pier 500 feet long with a T-head wharf 30 feet wide and 20 feet deep on the outer end, affording an available length of dockage of about 70 feet. The terminal has a small tram push car running the full length of the pier. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1139 The terminal is owned by Roy Jackson and is used exclusively by him in the fish and oyster industry. The traffic at this point, how- ever, is limited to his company and there is no demand for a publicly owned terminal. - e There are no railroad connections with the pier, though there is an improved road connecting it with the county highways, and all freight transshipped by rail has to be drayed several hundred yards to the local railroad terminal. At Rockport, which is on Aransas Bay about 12 miles northeast of Aransas Pass, there are three terminals of commercial importance, two of which are given over exclusively to the fish and oyster industry. These are all of wooden pile construction, and have a depth of water of from 4 to 8 feet at their outer ends. These terminals are described as follows: • Terminals at Rockport Teac.

For this use, a charge of 2% cents per 100 pounds is made on all inbound and outbound freight, and a toll of 25 cents per landing is received from all pleasure boats. There are no railroad connections with any of these terminals, and all freight transshipped by rail has to be drayed several hundred yards to the local railroad terminal. Practically the only interchange of traffic is from water to rail, consisting of fish and oysters, which, due to their perishable nature, are shipped by express. There is, however, a small amount of feed, groceries, hardware, etc., shipped out by water to local points, but no through bills of lading are issued for any of these shipments. These terminals are considered fairly efficient for the present traffic, as there is at no time any congestion at the wharves, and all freight is handled as economically as possible. There is no desire or necessity for a publicly owned water terminal in this locality at the present time. CHANNEL FROM ARANSAS PASS TO CORPUS CHRISTI, TEX. This channel extends from Aransas Pass, through Turtle Cove and across Corpus Christi Bay to Corpus Christi, 21.5 miles west of Aransas Pass. The existing project provides for a channel 12 feet deep at mean low tide and 100 feet wide from the harbor at Aransas Pass to Corpus Christi Bay and from the 12-foot depth in the bay to a turning 1140 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. basin 1,000 feet square at the wharves. This was completed in 1914, though shoaling since then has made the ruling depth at the present time about 9.5 feet. The effect of this improvement has been to place Corpus Christi in water communication with ocean-going traffic at Aransas Pass and pººl the establishment of coastwise traffic with Galveston and ort Arthur. During the calendar year 1918 this coastwise traffic amounted to 5,513 tons, valued at $258,282, in addition to which there was a local traffic of 17,684 tons, valued at $206,768. This commerce was carried in motorships, barges, and light-draft gasoline and sail boats. The terminal facilities on this waterway are located at each end, those at Aransas, Pass being described under the heading of Port Aransas, Tex. The terminal at the western terminus of the channel is located on the eastern side of the city of Corpus Christi and is known as the municipal wharf. This consists of a pier 1,000 feet long and 200 feet wide made of earth fill between concrete bulkheads with a creosoted pile T head 200 feet wide and 100 feet deep on the outer end. A cotton compress and fish-packing establishment are located on the pier, while an oil pipe line runs to the end of the wharf. The Texas Mexican Railway owns a spur line running almost the full length of the wharf. This connects with the St. Louis, Browns– ville & Mexico Railway, the San Antonio & Aransas Pass Railroad, and the San Antonio, Uvalde & Gulf Railway, and all freight arriving or departing from the wharf over any of these lines carries the usual Corpus Christi tariff charges without any additional charge for switching. The Corpus Christi municipal wharf is open to all water carriers on equal terms. There are no tolls for wharfage or switching, the only charge being 1 cent per 100 pounds on all incoming and outgoin freight. This revenue is used solely for the maintenance of the wharf. The terminal has direct highway connections with the city streets of Corpus Christi. The pipe line of the Sunset Fuel Oil Co. located on the wharf pro- vides ample fueling facilities for oil-burning vessels, as well as being a rapid means of discharge to the storage tanks. With the exception of warehousing facilities, this terminal is con- sidered generally efficient and fully adequate to care for the existing COIſll ſleI’C6. FREEPORT HARBOR, TEX. The terminal facilities described under this heading are located about a mile above the mouth of the Brazos River at Brazosport and Freeport, Tex. The Brazos River rises in the northwest portion of the State of Texas and flows in a southerly direction 950 miles, emptying into the Gulf of Mexico 50 miles southwest of Galveston and 141 miles east of Aransas Pass. The section under this heading extends from the mouth 6% miles to Velasco, has a width of from 400 to 600 feet, is subject to tidal action, and has a sluggish current under ordinary conditions. The existing project provides for a reasonably permanent channel 22 feet deep at mean low tide and 150 feet wide from the jetties up to the present terminals and for further extension upstream as soon as may be desirable, this channel to be protected by two stone jetties at the mouth of the river with spur dikes and bank protection. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 114.I. The project was about 70 per cent complete on May 15, 1919. The two parallel jetties with spur dike and bank protection in the river were completed in 1908, and the channel has a ruling depth at the present time of 18.5 feet. f - These improvements have established a deep water port at the mouth of the Brazos River, handling, under normal conditions, a large volume of commerce. During the calendar year 1918 this amounted to 309,700 tons, valued at $3,097,992, which consisted entirely of crude oil from Mexico and coastwise and foreign exports of sulphur. The regular weekly sailings of the steamers of the Seaboard & Gulf Steamship Co. between Brazosport (the steamship wharf on the east bank of the river) and New York were under control of the Shipping Board during the war and no general cargo was handled to Brazosport during the years 1917 and 1918. The terminal facilities at Freeport Harbor are located on the east and west banks of the river, about a mile above the mouth, and 3 miles below Freeport. Those at Brazosport on the east bank are owned and operated by the Seaboard & Gulf Steamship Co. and con- sist of a pile wharf 610 feet long with sheet pile bulkheading, and a wooden warehouse with a floor area of 28,000 square feet located thereon. General cargo and package freight is handled here and, due to the amount of sorting necessary, no mechanical apparatus has been found applicable to better facilitate this. Loading and unload- ing is done entirely by ship's tackle, and all handling to and from cars is done by hand truck. Two railroad tracks owned by the Houston & Brazos Valley Rail- way Co. run the full length of the warehouse convenient to ship side. These tracks have a capacity of 40 cars and connect with the main line of the Houston & Brazos Valley Railway. As will be seen from the accompanying tariff, this railroad absorbs practically all of the loading and unloading charges at the terminal, and will issue through bills of lading under certain agreements with the steamship lines. The terminal has a road leading to the town of Velasco, about 6 miles distant. - On the west bank of the river 3 miles below Freeport are located the sulphur dock of the Houston & Brazos Valley Railway and the oil wharf of the Freeport Sulphur Co. The former consists of a special elevated track with chutes for loading sulphur and a pile wharf 570 feet long. This, together with the single spur track connecting with the main line of the Houston & Brazos Valley Railway, is owned by theºport Terminal Co. and is open to all carriers under published tariffS. Cars of bulk sulphur are hauled to the top of the elevated trestle, where they are dumped into chutes and loaded directly into the ves- sel's hold. During the calendar year 1918, 21 steam vessels cleared coastwise and 2 cleared foreign with full shipments of sulphur. Located just south of the sulphur dock is the oil wharf owned and operated by the Freeport Sulphur Co. This consists of a pile wharf 250 feet long, open to all carriers free of wharfage. There are no railroad connections with this wharf, hence no interchange of traffic: between rail and water exists; there is, however, a pipe line for han- dling oil. This consists of an 8-inch pipe from storage tanks to the wharf where it is equipped with an 8-inch flexible hose operated by a hand windlass on a stiff-leg derrick. While used primarily for the 1142 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. importation of Grude oil, this wharf also affords ample fueling facilities for the port. - * Other terminals are located at the towns of Velasco and Freeport, but these consist only of small wharves for the use of light-draft craft plying upon the river and the inland waterways. They are all pri- vately owned but open to the public on equal terms. There are no railroad connections with any of them though practically all have highways connecting with the city streets and county roads. The terminal j. at the harbor of Freeport are all operated under the approval of the Secretary of War. The river and harbor act approved August 8, 1917, provided for municipal ownership of certain terminal facilities to be constructed by the city of Freeport and for the prevention of a terminal monopoly. Further provision was made that no tolls or dock charges for the privilege of loading or unloading over any wharves on the Brazos River frontage should be made without the approval of the Secretary of War. Most of these conditions have been met by the local interests and approval was given by the Secretary of War on March 22, 1918. The existing terminals are considered fully adequate for the present demands of traffic, and the general efficiency is all that is necessary. The methods in use for handling the shipments of oil and sulphur are the most rapid and economical possible, while the direct loading and unloading from ship to cars at the merchandise wharf effects a vast saving in time and expense. PORT ARANSAS, TEX. The locality improved under the title of Port Aransas is on the south coast of Texas, 188 miles southwest of Galveston and 125 miles north of the Rio Grande. The essential points of the exist- ing project are as follows: Two rubblestone jetties extending out into the Gulf of Mexico about 10,000 feet, and a channel between them 600 feet wide and 25 feet deep at mean low tide; a roadstead in Harbor Island Basin between Harbor and St. Joseph Islands 25 feet deep, 1,200 wide, and 3,000 feet long, with an extension of the same depth 400 feet wide and 5,420 feet long leading from the north end of the roadstead, and an approach channel 12 feet deep and 100 feet wide with a basin at the end leading from Harbor Island Basin to the town of Port Aransas. The project was about 48 per cent complete on May 1, 1919, with a ruling depth between the jetties of 21.5 feet. These improvements place the port on a parity with Galveston as regard freight rates, and there have been regular sailings of two or three vessels per month. A total of 121,222 tons of freight valued at $796,966 was handled at the port during the calendar year 1918. The greater part of this commerce consisted of crude oil from Mexico which was carried in the usual types of tank ships and barges. . The terminal facilities are located on Harbor Island at the head of Aransas Pass and at the inner end of the 12-foot channel leading to the town of Port Aransas. The terminal on Harbor Island is owned and operated by the Aransas Dock & Channel Co., and con- sists of a wooden steamship wharf 1,000 feet long with an available length of dockage of 2,000 feet, or a berthing capacity of about four ships of the average size. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1143 A wooden warehouse providing adequate storage facilities is located on the pier, together with a cotton compress for recompress- ing low density cotton. In addition to this, three oil companies maintain large storage facilities for crude, and fuel oil, with pipe lines to the wharf and loading racks for tank cars. * These companies also provide adequate bunkering facilities for oil-burning steamers. The Texas Co. maintains a 10-inch pipe line at the pier for discharging tank ships to storage tanks, and an 8-inch F. line for supplying oil to ships’ bunkers. At the present time, owever, there are no coaling facilities at the port. There are no repair facilities of any kind located at the terminal. There is, however, a small foundry and machine shop located at the town of Aransas Pass which, it is understood, is capable of making many minor repairs, such as small castings, forgings, etc. Ample trackage, sidings, switches, etc., serve the pier and ware- house, and connect with the main line of the San Antonio & Aransas Pass Railway at Aransas Pass, about 6% miles distant. This ter- minal railroad is owned and operated by the Aransas Harbor Ter- minal Railway Co. This railroad absorbs all terminal charges at the port on import and export freight. Through export bills of lading are issued under certain agreements with the railway company. So far as known, no contract exists for the prorating of long-distance traffic that is to be carried partly by rail and partly by water to its destination. - As the terminal is located on a practically undeveloped island in Aransas Bay there are no highway connections with the terminal. The general efficiency of the terminal is considered to be all that is possible under the present conditions. There is at no time any congestion of ships at the wharf or of freight in the warehouse, and all handling is done as economically as possible. The terminal located at the town of Port Aransas is owned by the city and is known as the Municipal Wharf. This consists solely of a pile pier 170 feet long, providing ample space for the light-draft vessels plying upon the inland waterway. There are no railroad connections with the wharf or with the town itself, and all supplies of the community have to be brought in by boat. The terminal has direct highway connections, however, with the city streets. * This terminal is open to all carriers on equal terms. Free dockage is given to all boats, and free wharfage on all freight under 300 pounds. A nominal charge of 2% cents per 100 pounds is made on all freight weighing over 300 pounds, which goes solely to the main- tenance and upkeep of the wharf. The terminal is as efficient as the conditions demand and is amply able to care for all present traffic. BRAZOS ISLAND HARBOR, TEX. Brazos Island Harbor is at the extreme south end of the coast of Texas, about 7 miles north of the mouth of the Rio Grande and about 125 miles south of Port Aransas. The harbor is at the inner end of Brazos Santiago Pass, which lies between Brazos and Padre Island, and is the natural outlet from the Laguna Madre to the Gulf of Mexico. Opposite the pass is the small town of Point 1144 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Isabel on the mainland which, in the past, has been the port of entry for the lower Rio Grande Valley. The existing project provides for dredging a channel 18 feet deep at mean low #. and 400 feet wide through the entrance and its maintenance for a period of five years. This whole area is tidal and the tide has a range under ordinary conditions of about 1% feet. There are no terminal facilities at Brazos Island. At Point Isabel the only wharf is a railroad structure, a wooden trestle ex- tending out into the bay for a distance of 1,400 feet. This is owned by the Rio Grande Railway, and while at present it carries only the narrow-gage track of this road, it was rebuilt in 1918 with creosoted piles and heavy construction with a view to eventually carrying a standard gage track. In addition to this wharf the Rio Grande Railway also owns 740 feet of frontage on the bay at the base of the wharf, the other frontage being owned by other parties. There are no freight handling facilities on this pier. For several years past it has not been used, for the reason that there was no commerce, and no tariff or schedule of wharfage charges is in exist- €IlCC. At the present time, the only vessels using the waterway are a number of light-draft gasoline and sail fishing boats, though several years ago, before shoaling had taken place, one or two small coast- wise stealmers of about 200 tons capacity made frequent trips be- tween Point Isabel and Galveston. The river and harbor act adopting the present project provided that local interests should contribute sufficient funds to dredge a channel 16 feet deep at mean low tide and 100 feet wide from deep water in Brazos Santiago Pass to the end of the wharf at Point }. with a turning basin 500 feet square and 16 feet deep at the wharf, and furnish suitable terminal facilities at Point Isabel open to all on equal terms. These conditions have not yet been met, but the local interests are understood to be collecting the necessary funds for the channel across the bay, and to be preparing to comply with the other conditions. - : WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER, IFACILITIES.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES, DALLAS, TEX., DISTRICT. MR. JOHN M. G. WATT, ASSISTANT ENGINEER, IN CHARGE. All the wharves in this district which are important or of public interest are located at various terminals on the waterway from the Gulf of Mexico to Beaumont and Orange, Tex., and at Port Arthur, Tex., on Taylors Bayou near its mouth, at the junction of the Port Arthur and Sabine-Neches Canals. The entrance to this waterway, Sabine Pass, is on the Gulf of Mexico approximately 80 miles east of Galveston and 435 miles west of New Orleans. The different sections and lengths of the waterway are as follows: Jetty channel, entrance approximately 5 miles long; thence through Sabine Pass, 7 miles; thence through the Port Arthur Canal, 7 miles, to the Port Arthur terminals; thence through the Sabine- Neches Canal, 12 miles, to the mouth of the Neches River, at which point the waterway divides into two branches, one leading up the Neches River to the turning basin at Beaumont, Tex., a distance of 21 miles, the other leading across Sabine Lake to the mouth of the Sabine River, a distance of 4 miles; thence up the Sabine River to the turning basin at Orange, Tex., a distance of 10 miles. The depths and widths as called for by the existing project for this waterway are as follows: Jetty channel entrance and Sabine Pass, depth 28 feet over the bar and 26 feet between the jetties; width 200 feet; Port Arthur Ship Canal, depth 26 feet, width 150 feet, with two turning basins 26 feet deep, at the mouth of Taylors Bayou near Port Arthur, Tex.; Sabine-Neches Canal, depth 25 feet, width 90 feet through the land and 115 feet in the open lake connecting the mouths of the Neches and Sabine Rivers, with three passing places 110 by 1,700 feet: Neches River, depth 25 feet, width 150 feet in the open river and 90 feet in the ... at Mansfield Ferry and Snaggy Bend and suitably widened at the mouth, terminating in a turning basin 500 feet by 1,500 feet at Beaumont, Tex; Sabine River, depth 25 feet, width 150 feet in open river, 210 feet in cut-off below Orange, Tex., suitably widened at the mouth and terminating in a turning basin 500 feet by 1,500 feet at Orange, Tex. The project depths now exist except in that portion of the Sabine-Neches Canal connecting the mouths of the Neches and Sabine Rivers where the controlling depth on June 30, 1919, was 22.6 feet. The chief hindrances to navigation of this waterway are the Baseule bridge at Port Arthur, Tex., and the guard lock, 6 miles above Port Arthur, Tex., both in the Sabine-Neches Canal. The portion of this waterway from the mouth of the Sabine- Neches Canal inland was completed and opened to navigation in 1916 and is in the developing stage. On this portion there is no terminal “deemed especially efficient and economical” to merit more complete description than given below. 1161 1162 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The chief commodities transported are oil and its products and lumber. The total amounts and values of commerce carried on dif- ferent portions of the waterway during the calendar year 1918 were as follows: - TOns. Value. Neches River..… 1, 100,047 || $37,286,939 .

The principal terminals are located as follows: Sabine, 6% miles from the entrance; Port Arthur and West Port Arthur, on Taylors Bayou, near the junction of Taylors Bayou, the Port Arthur Canal, and the Sabine-Neches Canal, 19 miles from the entrance; Port Neches on the Neches River, 37 miles from the entrance; Beaumont, on Neches River, 52 miles from the entrance; Orange, on the Sabine River, 45 miles from the entrance. At Beaumont the public wharf is located on the north side of the turning basin. Near Orange the public wharf is in a slip, 2 miles downstream from the turning basin. At Port Arthur, the terminals are on the turning basins and on Taylors Bayou, and the Texas & New Orleans Railroad has a slip at its Sabine terminal. All other wharves are adjacent and parallel to the navigable channel. SABINE, TEX. The following wharves are located at Sabine, on Sabine Pass: (a) The Magnolia Petroleum Co. wharf No. 2 is 492 feet long and is built of creosoted piles, heavy timber deck beams, and plank decking. It is 6.5 miles from the jetty channel entrance. This wharf, recently enlarged, is private and is used exclusively for han- dling oil, and is adequate for existing and prospective commerce. It is 1,500 feet from the nearest railroad. The storage consists of 9 tanks with a total capacity of 500,000 barrels. Oil is discharged into the tanks and also loaded on vessels through pipe lines. All oil stored in tanks is brought in by water. 1164 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. (b) The Texas & New Orleans Railroad terminal is a pile structure, with timber beams and plank decking and wooden sheds. It is 6.7 miles from the jetty channel entrance. This wharf has been abandoned as a public shipping point, due to certain rulings covering freight charges which make it practically necessary to ship through Port Arthur. (See p. 250, “Miscellaneous Series No. 33, Ports of the United States, 1916.”) The wharves and sheds are in poor condition but are still serviceable. The sheds and wharves parallel to channel are leased to the Gulf Fish Oil & Fertilizer Co. and the Sabine Fish Oil & Fertilizer Co. for the manufacture of fish oil and fertilizer. The slip is leased to D. M. Picton & Co., contractors and "hº - º g his terminal is privately owned, has direct connection with the Texas & New Orleans Railroad, and is adequate for its existing and prospective commerce. C. Due to the fact that this terminal is not in general use, detailed information is not given. (c) The Union Sulphur Co. wharf is a creosoted pile structure 300 feet long, with heavy timber deck beams and plank decking, all in good condition. This wharf is 7.2 miles from the entrance. The wharf and spur track connecting with the Texas & New Orleans Railroad are privately owned. The only commodity is sulphur shipped by rail from Louisiana and stored on each side of the elevated railroad spur, the storage capacity being 30,000 tons. The facilities for loading consist of four derricks operating 13-yard Hayward clam- shell buckets which feed an inclined conveyor leading to the vessels. This wharf and its appliances are adequate for the present business of this company, and no enlargement is contemplated. (d) The Magnolia Petroleum Co. wharf No. 3 is 187 feet long and is built of creosoted piles, heavy timber deck beams, and plank decking, all in good condition. It is 7.4 miles from the jetty channel entrance. This wharf is privately owned and is used exclusively for handling oil; it is adequate for present and prospective commerce. A spur track of the Texas' & New Orleans Railroad comes within 200 feet of this wharf. The storage consists of three tanks with total capacity of 150,000 barrels. Oil is discharged into tanks and loaded in ves- sels through pipe lines. All oil stored in tanks is brought in by Water. At Sabine Pass, on Sabine Pass, the Sun Co. has an oil wharf 170 feet long by 30 feet wide, in fair condition. It is 8.7 miles from the jetty channel entrance and consists of creosoted piles with timber deck beams and plank decking. This wharf is privately owned and is adequate for present and prospective commerce. It has no direct railroad connection, being al. 700 feet from the nearest railroad. The storage consists of eight tanks with a total capacity of 440,000 bar- rels; the tanks are inland 1.6 miles from the wharf. ôi for storage is obtained by inland pipe lines and by vessels. The appliances used to load vessels are pipe lines from the storage tanks. It is believed that all the existing terminal facilities at Sabine and Sabine Pass, Tex., mentioned in this paragraph, are adequate for present and prospective commerce, for the reason that the large shipping points are farther inland. It has been impossible to obtain cost data for handling cargoes at any of the terminals. There are no coaling or repair facilities at any of these terminals, but fuel oil may be obtained at the oil wharves. - H. Doc. 652, 66-2. ├─────── SULPHUR HANDLING PLANT, SABINE, TEX, 1164 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1165 In this section of the waterway there is no public ownership or control of water front, the navigation facilities are extensively used, as evidenced by the commercial statistics, no improvement of ter- minal facilities, seems to be desired, and there appears to be no demand for a joint rail and water terminal. - PORT ARTHUR AND WEST PORT ARTHUR, TEx. The following important terminals are located at the turning basin at Port Arthur and at West Port Arthur on Taylors Bayou: (a) The Texas Co. terminal is located on a peninsula, about 3,500 feet in length, formed by the Sabine-Neches Canal, Taylors Bayou, and the old Port Arthur turning basin. The wharf fronting the eastern side of the turning basin is 2,114 feet long and is built of creosoted piles, heavy timber deck beams, and plank decking, and is in good condition. It is 19 miles from the jetty channel entrance. This wharf is private and is used exclusively for the shipment of oil and its products. This company has a refinery about 2 miles inland from the wharf. Oils are forced through pipelines from the refinery to vessels at the wharf. By-products are brought in over a private railroad spur, which gives direct rail connection with the Texarkana & Fort Smith and Southern Pacific Railroads. Conveyors are used for loading case goods from cars to warehouses and vessels. This company owns nine warehouses, built of reinforced concrete and tile, the total floor area being 116,960 square feet. These warehouses are located about 50 feet back from the face of the wharf. The oil storage at the terminal consists of 30 steel tanks with total capacity of 350,000 barrels. Oil is brought to these tanks both by pipe lines and vessels. - - The oil storage at the Texas Co. refinery, about 2 miles distant from the terminal, consists of 600 steel tanks with total capacity of 8,000,000 barrels. - - (b) The Port Arthur Canal & Dock Co. terminal is located on three slips dredged off the old Port Arthur turning basin. This company is a subsidiary of the Texarkana & Fort Smith Railroad. Direct railroad connection to all wharves is available and the terminal is open to the public for general shipping. No dockage charge is made for vessels taking on or discharging cargoes; the labor charge is taken care of by the shipper. This terminal is 19 miles inland from the jetty channel entrance. Wharf No. 1, known as the cotton dock, has a frontage of about 2,200 feet on the eastern side of slip No. 3 and is 250 feet wide, with a wooden frame warehouse 2,100 feet long by 90 feet wide. Wharf No. 2, known as the meal dock, lies between slips Nos. 3 and 2. This wharf has a frontage of 2,375 feet on the western side of slip No. 3 and 1,625 feet on the eastern side of slip No. 2, and is 375 feet wide. It has a wooden frame warehouse 1,450 feet long by 90 feet wide. Wharf No. 3 is an open wharf used for lumber. It has a frontage of 1,800 feet on the western side of slip No. 2 and is 125 feet wide. On the west side of this wharf is a timber basin built by the Long-Bell Lumber Co. for storage of logs and lumber. Wharf No. 4 on slip No. 1 is used for lumber and is 2,000 feet in length. There are two lumber warehouses on this wharf, both 117 feet wide, one being 1,400 feet long and the other 600 feet long. The latter warehouse is the property of the Long-Bell Lumber Co. 1166 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. On wharf No. 2 there is a grain elevator, with a capacity including shipping bins, of 410,000 bushels. This elevator is arranged for drying wheat prior to shipment. It is built with wooden frames and galvanized-iron sheathing. - All wharves are creosoted pile structures with heavy timber deck beams and plank decking, in good condition. There are no appli- ances for handling cargoes except conveyors for loading vessels With grain from the elevators. (c) The Gulf Refining Co.'s terminal and refinery are located at West Port Arthur, on the left bank of Taylors Bayou, about 1% miles above the mouth and 20% miles from the jetty channel entrance. The wharf, 1,899 feet long, is of concrete construction and is in excellent condition. Due to the fact that this company located its terminal off the main waterway, it became necessary for it to dredge a channel from the uppermost portion of the new Port Arthur turning basin to their wharf, and to dredge a turning basin at their wharf. This work was done under Government permit and was completed in 1911. This wharf has direct rail connection by spurs from the Texarkana & Fort Smith and Southern Pacific Railroads. . The commodities passing over this wharf are oil and its products. This company claims to have shipped 36 per cent of the total tonnage passing º Sabine Pass, Tex., during the calendar year 1918. This company has four warehouses, three being of steel frame with brick walls and concrete floor, and the other of reinforced concrete throughout; the total floor space is 117,200 square feet. There are also two wooden freight sheds with total floor space of 32,700 square feet. 3. The oil storage consists of 78 tanks with total capacity of 3,236,000 barrels. Oil is brought to this storage both by pipe lines and vessels. º facilities for handling cargoes of oil consist of pumps and pipe 1IlêS. The terminal of the Port Arthur Canal & Dock Co. is adequate for existing and prospective commerce; the other terminals at Port Arthur and West Port Arthur, are adequate for existing commerce, but if the business of the Texas Co. and Gulf Refining Co. continues to increase, it will be necessary for these companies to extend their present wharves. There are no repair facilities at or near these terminals, but the Gulf Refining Co. makes minor repairs to its own vessels, which do not require dry docking. The Basin Supply Co. coals vessels at the Port Arthur turning basin, daily capacity 1,000 tons. Fuel oil can be obtained at the wharves of the Gulf Refining and Texas companies. It has not been possible to obtain cost data for handling cargoes at any of these terminals. No additional rail and water connections. are needed. There is no public ownership or control of water front. The navigation facilities are very extensively used, as evidenced by the commercial statistics. - The Texas Co. has a terminal and refinery at Fort Neches, on the right bank of the Neches River, 6 miles above the mouth and 37 miles. from the jetty channel entrance. This wharf is privately owned and has direct rail connection by private spur to the Texarkana & Fort Smith Railroad. The wharf is 468 feet long, built of piles, timber deck beams, and plank decking, and is in good condition. The commodi- ties passing over this wharf are oil and its products. H. Doc. 652, 66-2, PETROLEUM OIL TERMINAL, BEAUMONT, TEX. VIEW OF CITY WHARF, BEAUMONT, TEX. 1167 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1167 There is one warehouse on the wharf used for asphalt storage, the floor area being 29,952 square feet. There are seven freight sheds located on the high ground back of the wharf, and these sheds have direct railroad connection to wharf. The company has its own rail- road equipment and crew for transferring cargoes to the wharf. Oil is received at this terminal both by pipe lines and vessels. The : ºngº consists of 58 tanks, with a total capacity of 2,000,000 8.I’I’elS. This wharf appears to be adequate for present and prospective com- merce. There are no repair facilities at this terminal. It has not been possible to obtain cost data for handling cargoes. ºre are no coaling facilities, but fuel oil may be obtained at the WI) al’I. There is no public ownership of water front. The navigation facilities are extensively used, as evidence by the commercial statistics. There, is no need of additional rail or water connections. º BEAUMONT, TEX. Rº: following wharves are located at Beaumont, on the Neches 1VOr : (a) The Magnolia Petroleum Co.'s wharf and refinery is located on the right bank of the Neches River, about 1 mile downstream of the Beaumont turning basin. It is 51 miles from the jetty channel entrance. This wharf, 1,000 feet long, is of concrete construction and not ade- quate for the present business of this company. A Government per- mit has been granted and work has started on a 600-foot extension downstream of the present structure. The wharf is private and has no rail connection; however, the refinery has direct rail connection by §. spur with the Texarkana & Fort Smith and Southern Pacific ailroads. The commodities passing over this wharf consists of oil and its products. - - - - The oil storage available for this wharf and refinery consist of 42 tanks, with total capacity of 2,310,000 barrels. The facilities for handling freight consist of pipelines and pumps. (b) The city of Beaumont terminal is located on the north side of the turning basin at the foot of Pearl Street. It is 52 miles from the jetty channel entrance. The wharf is 1,000 feet long, 500 feet being of pile and timber con- struction and 500 feet of concrete. This wharf is in good condition and has direct railroad connection. It is not adequate for the present commerce, but an additional length of 500 feet is now under con- struction adjoining the eastern end of the present structure. . . This wharf is open to the public for general shipping. The opera- tion is in charge of the Beaumont Wharf and Dock Board and the charges are said to be just sufficient for maintenance. The appli- ances for handling freight are two half-gantry cranes on the wharf, two traveling cranes inside the freight shed, and conveyors for han- dling lumber. A charge of cost plus 10 per cent is made for use of CT alleS. There is at present one freight shed located just back of the wharf. The shed has a steel frame covered with galvanized iron and is 60 feet wide by 400 feet long. 1168 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. It has been reported that another shed is to be constructed during 1919. The wharves at the port are not adequate for existing and pros- pective commerce, as evidenced by the fact that both the city and the Magnolia Petroleum Co. wharves are now being extended. It has been impossible to obtain cost data for handling cargoes. Vessels may be coaled by the Sabine Ice & Water Towing Co., by lighter, or they may coal at the city wharf. Fuel oil can be obtained at the wharf of the Magnolia Petroleum Co. The public ownership of water front extends from the foot of Pearl Street along the city wharf and the north side of the turning basin, thence up the right bank of the river to the foot of Hickory Street, a distance of about 1 mile. A small portion of this stretch just down- stream of the Kansas City Southern Railroad Bridge is privately owned, and in addition to the above there is other river front at each end of the city property, which is now in litigation by the city. At the island formed by Brakes Bayou and the Neches River about 0.9 mile upstream from the turning basin, the Beaumont Dry Dock & Shipbuilding Co. has in operation a marine railway, which will accom- modate a vessel of 2,700 tons dead-weight, the cradle is 270 feet long on the keel block and 60 feet wide, making it possible to dry-dock vessels 300 feet long. This company is also constructing a dry dock which will accommodate vessels 8,000 tons dead-weight. The dry dock will consist of 6 connected pontoons, length on the keel blocks 440 feet, width between wings at dock level 80 feet. The navigation facilities are extensively used as evidenced by the commercial statistics for the calendar year 1918. There is no need of additional rail or water connections. ORANGE, TEX. The only wharf of importance at or near Orange, on the Sabine River, is that of the city of Orange, in the slip, 2 miles downstream from the turning basin at the city. This terminal is very near com- pletion, but the railroad connection to it is only partly completed and the wharf has not yet been used. The work of completion has been delayed due to lack of funds, but recently a bond election was held and $150,000 voted to complete this improvement and to make addi- tional ones. These funds are now available and the statement has been made that this wharf and the direct rail connection will be com- pleted and opened to the public at an early date. This wharf is located on the south side of a slip 280 feet wide by 3,000 feet long, dredged off the right bank of the Sabine River 2 miles below the turning basin at Orange, Tex. When this wharf and the railroad. tracks leading to it are com- pleted, there will be direct railroad connection with the Orange & Northwestern and the Southern Pacific railroads. The wharf proper and two railroad tracks on it are fully completed and in excellent condition. The freight shed 60 feet wide by 300 feet long, is a good structure, built of steel and galvanized sheeting, and is completed except for the floor, the supporting round piles for which have been driven. - The wharf is built of creosoted round piles with heavy timber deck beams and plank decking. wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1169 The present commerce passing down the Sabine River from Orange, Tex., consists principally of oil and lumber. The oil is loaded from ipe lines reaching the Sabine River at and above Orange, and the umber is at present loaded from the water. When the city terminal is completed and enlarged it is believed it will be adequate for existing and prospective commerce. There are no coaling facilities at this port. J. B. Weaver & Sons operate a ship repair yard at the city of Orange, but the capacity of the dock, 1,200 tons, will only accom- modate the smaller vessels. The navigation facilities are used less on this section of the water- way than on any of the others and the present widths and depths of the channel from Orange, Tex., to the §. River are considered to be adequate for existing and prospective commerce. The South side of the slip is publicly owned, but the north side is owned by the Lutcher-Moore Lumber Co. The city of Orange owns a number of small landings at the city proper. 164681—H. Doc. 625, 66–2––74 5 WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. WALLISVILLE, TEX. TRINITY RIVER, TEX. WALLISVILLE, TEX.

WICKSBURG, MISS., DISTRICT. M.A.J. C. W. O TWELL, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. RED RIVER, ARK. AND LA., BELOW FULTON, ARK. Red River flows in a general easterly direction to Fulton, Ark., where it turns and flows southeasterly through Arkansas and Louisi- ana, 482 miles, and enters the Mississippi River at Red River Landing, La. Red River below Fulton, Ark., is an alluvial stream with low- water depth over the bars, 2 feet in upper section and 5 feet in the lower, but during boating stages, usually the first six months in the year, the available depth is 6 feet or more over the whole river. The project provides for continuing improvement of Red River from Fulton, Ark., to the Atchafalaya River, La., 475 miles, by sys- tematic clearing of the banks, snagging, dredging shoals, building levees (either jo. or in cooperation with riparian States), closing outlets, revetting caving banks, and preventing injurious cut-offs. The commerce consists principally of cotton, cotton seed, provi- sions, hogs, and timber carried in barges. The amount varies from 26,000 to 75,000 short tons per annum, valued from $300,000 to $4,370,000. Boats carrying the traffic are western river type, flat bottom, steam or gasoline power, of 10 to 300 registered tonnage, operated alone or with barges of 100 to 500 tons capacity. There are two cities, Shreveport and Alexandria, La., five towns, Fulton and Garland, Ark., Coushatta, Campti, and Colfax, La., and many small villages on the river. Other than the unimproved river bank at the landings in front of the towns there are no terminals except at Naples, La., 7 miles above the mouth, where there is a railway incline for transfer of trains to barges on which they are ferried out to and across, the Mississippi River. The ownership of the water fronts on the river is, with the municipal corporations or riparian proprietors, who exercise little or no control, the use for traffic being free. Additional river terminals are needed at Alexandria, where an in- clined tramway, platform car, and warehouse are needed near the lower end of the city, and a standard-gage railroad incline near the ...'. end. If navigation should be reestablished as far up the river as Shreveport, similar facilities should be provided at that point. OUACHITA AND BLACK RIVERS, ARK. AND LA. Ouachita River rises in western Arkansas, flows easterly to near Hot Springs, Ark., then nearly south to Jonesville, La., where it is jº by Tensas and Little River, forming Black River, which enters ed River 34 miles above its mouth. The navigable part of Oua- chita River, below Camden, Ark., is about 300 miles long, and Black River is 56 miles long. They are alluvial streams, with moderate currents, carry little sediment, slope about 2% inches per mile, and their average width is about 500 feet. II 76 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1177 The project provides, in addition to snagging, removing obstruc- tions, and maintenance of depth, for slack-water navigation as high as Camden, Ark., by a system of six locks and dams, giving 6% feet least depth. Two of the locks with the dams have been finished, three are undergoing alteration, one is under construction. The commerce consists of the products of the country, mostly çotton and timber outgoing, provisions and supplies inward. The amount varies from 64,800 to 178,000 short tons per annum, valued at $1,923,000 to $4,981,000. The boats used are western river type, shallow draft, flat bottom, steam or gasoline power, 10 to 300 tons, operated alone or towing barges of 100 to 500 tons capacity. There is only one city, Monroe, La., on the river, and there are only four towns, Camden, Ark., Columbia, Harrisonburg, and Jones- ville, La., but there are many towns short distances back and planta- tion landings. At Camden there is a wooden platform, in a dilapi- dated condition, for handling freight. At Monroe a municipally owned warehouse with 3,200 square feet floor space has recently been built at the city front. There is a railway spur track alongside the warehouse. The use of all landings is free. Rules for using the warehouse at Monroe have not been published. Additional river terminals are needed at Jonesville and Monroe, at each of which an inclined tramway and platform car are needed, and a warehouse at Jonesville. When the canalization of the river is completed similar structures should be provided at Camden and pos- sibly at other points. - TENSAS RIVER AND BAYOU MACON, LA. Tensas River joins Ouachita and Little Rivers at Jonesville, La., forming Black River. Bayou Maçon enters Tensas River 42.7 miles above its mouth. During first six months of the year they are navi- gable for boats drawing 6 feet or more, as high as Westwood, 81 miles above mouth of Tensas and Delhi, on Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific Railway, 87.5 miles above mouth of Maçon, though a boat has not been to either place for 8 or 10 years. Boats go to New Lightt on Tensas and Jackson Landing on Bayou Maçon. The project provides for removal of snags, logs, and overhanging timber as far up as the Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific Railway, 138 miles above the mouth of Tensas River and as high as Floyd, 112 miles above the mouth of Bayou Maçon. The commerce consists of the products of the country, mostly cot- ton and timber outgoing, provisions and supplies inward. The amount varies from 3,000 tons to 8,000 tons per annum, valued at $25,000 to $300,000. The boats used are western river type, shallow draft, flat bottom, steam or gasoline power, 10 to 293 tons, operated alone or towing barges of 100 to 300 tons. There is no place larger than a village on Tensas or Maçon, though Floyd on Bayou Maçon is the parish site, and Delhi, which is a small town, is about 1 mile from the bayou. gº There are no terminal facilities other than unimproved banks at any of the landings. These belong to riparian owne s, and their use is free. The present commerce would not justify any construction for handling freight at any point on Tensas River or Bayou Maçon, and 1178 wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. there is no prospect of any need for such. Cotton and merchandise are loaded or unloaded in small lots at frequent intervals along the river, and the possible saving in handling at any one place would be insignificant compared to the cost of installing machinery, but machinery on the boats if well adapted to the purpose could easily effect a considerable saving in handling freight, as is done by derrick boats loading logs into barges where timber is gotten out for the mills, BOEUF RIVER, LA. Boeuf River enters Ouachita River 81 miles above the mouth of Black River. The boating stage is usually the first six months in the year, at which time the navigable depth is 6 feet or more, as high as Alto, La., 100 miles above the mouth. The project provides for removal of snags, logs, and overhanging timber as far up as Wallace Landing, 166 miles above the mouth, though no boat has been above Alto for 10 years or more. The commerce consists of the products of the country, mostly cotton and cottonseed outgoing, and provisions and supplies inward. The amount varies from 2,000 to 15,000 tons per annum, valued at $185,000 to $570,000. The boats used are western river type, shallow draft, flat bottom, steam or gasoline power, 10 to 193 tons, operated alone or towing barges of 100 to 300 tons capacity. There are no towns or villages on Boeuf River. Girard, a small village one-half mile away, is the closest and Rayville, 2 miles away, is the parish site. Both are on the Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific Railway. There are no terminal facilities other than unimproved banks at the landings, which belong to riparian owners, and their use is free. - There is no present need for any terminal facilities. BAYOU BARTHOLOMEW, LA. AND ARK. Bayou Bartholomew enters Ouachita River at Ouachita, La., 210 miles above the mouth. The boating stage is usually the first six months in the year, at which time the navigable depth is 6 feet or more as high as McComb Landing, 141 miles above the mouth. The project provides for removing snags, logs, and overhanging trees as far up as Baxter, Ark., about 182 miles above the mouth, though no boat has been above the Louisiana-Arkansas State line, 85.7 miles above the mouth, for 10 years or more. The commerce consists of the products of the country, mostly tim- ber in rafts and barges in recent years. The amount varies from 500 tons to 12,000 tons per annum, and the value from $2,600 to $97,000. The boats used are small gasoline power, from 10 to 25 tons, towing rafts or barges of 100 tons capacity. There are no towns on the bayou, and the villages are small. Bastrop, La., a parish site, is about 1 mile from Point Pleasant, 28.7 miles above the mouth. There are no terminal facilities other than unimproved banks at the landings, which belong to riparian owners, and their use is free. There is no present need for any terminal facilities. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES, 1179 BAYOUS D'ARBONNE AND CORNEY, LA. Little D’Arbonne and Corney rise in Claiborne Parish, La., and come together at Farmerville, La., where they are joined by Middle Fork, forming Bayou D'Arbonne, which empties into Ouachita River 189 miles above the mouth of Black River. Corney is 76 miles long, but is navigable only about 20 miles. Both have a navigable depth of 6 feet or more at boating stage, which usually is the first six months of the year. º The project provides for removing snags, logs, and overhanging trees as far as Cobb Landing, 57 miles above the mouth. The commerce consists of the products of the country, mostly cotton and timber outgoing, and provisions and supplies inward. The amount varies from 2,000 tons to 25,000 tons per annum, valued at $100,000 to $800,000. The boats used are western river type, shallow draft, flat bottom, steam or gasoline power, 10 to 75 tons, operated alone or towing barges of 100 to 300 tons capacity. Farmerville is a parish site and the only town near the streams. It is about a mile from both. There are no terminal facilities other than unimproved banks at the landings, which belong to riparian owners and their use is free. • There is no present need for any terminal facilities. SALINE RIVER, ARK. Saline River empties into Ouachita River 254.7 miles above mouth of Black River. The navigable depth is 4 feet or more at boating stage, which usually is the first six months of the year. The project provides for removal of snags, logs, and overhanging trees as far as Turtle Bar, 125 miles above the mouth. - The commerce consists principally of saw logs rafted down the river and staves carried in barges. The amount varies from 2,500 to 5,500 tons and the value from $18,000 to $78,000. The boats used are small gasoline-power or western-river type, steam towboats, flat bottom, shallow draft, 10 to 200 tons, operated to guide the timber, or tow barges of 300 tons capacity. £ There are no towns on Saline River. Warren, Ark., is a county site about 1 mile from the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Railway crossing, 68 miles above the mouth. There are no terminal facilities other than unimproved banks at the landings, which belong to riparian owners and their use is free. - There is no present need for any terminal facilities. YAZOO RIVER, MISS. Yazoo River empties into the Mississippi River at Vicksburg, about 475 miles above the mouth. It has a minimum depth of 4 feet at lowest stage during the entire year. The project provides for removal of snags, logs, overhanging trees, and maintenance of depth by dredging shoals over the entire river. The commerce consists of products of the country, principally cotton and timber outgoing, and provisions and supplies inward, varying in amount from 85,000 tons to 140,000 tons per annum, 1180 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. valued at $1,200,000 to $3,200,000. The boats used are western- river type, flat bottom, shallow draft, gasoline or steam power, 10 to 200 tons, operated alone or together with barges of 100 to 300 tons capacity. © Greenwood, 175 miles above the mouth is the largest town on the river. It has a municipally-owned, stone-paved front of about 1,000 square feet, and the Greenwood Transfer Co. has a small incline railway down the bank, on which two cars of about 5 tons capacity are hauled up and down by means of a gasoline engine operating a drum with wire cables. A larger car can be operated by running the wheels on inside rail of the two tracks. The car serves to transfer and unload freight between boats and warehouse at small cost. The warehouse with platform for cotton has floor space of 8,800 square feet. The use of the car and warehouse is open to all boats on a schedule charge per package. There is no physical connection be- tween the warehouse and the railways except a stone-paved roadway and the city streets, paved with wooden blocks. É. there is a railway spur track to the top of the river bank about a third of 1 mile above the city front. Belzoni, 125 miles above the mouth, and Yazoo City, 75 miles above the mouth, have no terminal facilities other than the unimproved river bank. Two large warehouses, formerly in use at Yazoo City when a line of steamboats was in opera- tion in joint traffic with the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railway, have been allowed to go to ruin since the steamboat line quit running. Additional terminals are needed at Yazoo City and Belzoni, at each of which an inclined tramway, platform car, and warehouse should be provided. TCHULA LAKE, MISS: Tchula Lake is an old bed of Yazoo River which leaves and reenters the river about 150 miles and 110 miles, respectively, above the mouth. The project provides for removal of snags, logs, and overhanging trees throughout the lake. - Commerce consists of the products of the country, principally cotton and timber outgoing, and provisions and supplies inward. The amount varies from 180 tons to 8,000 tons per annum, and the value from $28,000 to $59,000. The boats used are small gasoline- power or western-river type steamboats, flat bottom, shallow draft, 10 to 200 tons, operated alone or towing barges of 100 to 300 tons capacity. Tchula, a small town, is the only one on the lake. There are no terminal facilities other than unimproved banks at the landings, which belong to the municipal authorities or to riparian owners and their use is free. There is no present need for any terminal facilities. TALLAHATCHIE AND COLD WATER RIVERs, MIss. Tallahatchie and Coldwater Rivers join near where Tallahatchie leaves the hill country. Usually during the first six months of the year there is a navigable depth of 5 feet or more to Marks on Cold- water about 12.8 miles above the mouth and about 127.8 miles above the mouth of Tallahatchie. During the remainder of the year the depth is about 4 feet to Minter City, 45 miles above the mouth of Tallahatchie, and 1 foot above there. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1181 The project provides for removal of snags, logs, leaning trees, and dredging to maintain depth near the mouth of Tallahatchie. Commerce consists of the products of the country, principally cotton and timber outgoing, provisions and supplies inward. The amount varies from 23,000 tons to 96,000 tons per annum, and the value from $1,672,000 to $3,350,000. The boats used are western river type, flat bottom, shallow draft, steam or gasoline power, 10 to 100 tons, operated alone or towing barges of 100 to 300 tons capacity. Marks on Coldwater and Minter City on Tallahatchie are the §§ towns on the river. At Minter City the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railroad have an incline down the bank on which cars may be run so that boats may land alongside the trains. The Greenwood Trans- portation Co. boats interchange freight with the railroad. There are no other terminal facilities along the rivers other than unimproved banks at the landings, which belong to the riparian owners, and their use is free. There is no present need for any other terminal facilities. BEAR CREEK, MISS. Bear Creek is a succession of lakes and bayous which empty into Yazoo River about 135 miles above the mouth. Usually during the first six months of the year, when the gage at Yazoo City reads 15 feet, there is a navigable depth of 6 feet or more in Bear Creek. During the rest of the year there is a good depth in the lakes but the connecting bayous go dry. g The project provides for removal of snags, logs, and trees from Wasp Lake, Four Mile, Six Mile, and Three Mile Lakes, and bayous between. - The commerce consists of the products of the country, principally cotton and timber outgoing, provisions and supplies inward. The amount varies from 1,400 tons to 5,500 tons per annum, and the value from $7,000 to $25,000 per annum. The boats used are western river type, flat bottom, shallow draft, steam or gasoline power, 10 to 100 tons, operated alone or towing barges of 100 to 300 tons capacity.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. LITTLE ROCK, ARK., DISTRICT. MR. P. R. VAN FRANK IN CHARGE. ARKANSAS RIVER, ARK. The head of navigation on this river is 461 miles above its mouth at the mouth of Neosho (Grand) River, opposite Muskogee, Okla. The river bed is a mass of shifting sand, making channels uncertain as to depth and location. The flow at extreme low water does not give depths over 14 to 16 inches in the upper and middle reaches, nor over 22 to 26 inches in the lower reaches. Navigation depths over 4 feet can not be depended upon for more than three months each year. The existing project provides for improvement by con- traction, revetments, and dredging to deepen the channel and for clearing the channel of snags and like obstructions by operation of Snagboats. Revetment and bank protection work has been limited to the vicinity of Little Rock and Pine Bluff for several years. At this time there is practically no commercial use of the river above the Petit Jean River (242 miles above the mouth). Below that point the commerce is made up of movement of forest and farm products, saw logs and rough cooperage, to which the movement of merchan- dise and other general freights are added below. Plum Bayou (28 miles above Pine Bluff and 135 miles above the mouth of the river). Procuring sand from the bed of the stream and moving it to near-by terminals is not included here as commerce. The forest products are moved in rafts towed by motor boats ranging from 10 to 30 net registered tons and in barges with capaci- ties ranging from 60 to 400 tons, with load draft of 3 to 5 feet, towed by stern-wheel steamboats ranging from 20 to 150 net registered tons. The farm products and general freights are carried by stern- wheel steamers of 20 to 135 net registered tons, with load draft averaging about 3 feet. The average annual movement of com- merce is 47,000 tons of forest products and 6,000 tons of farm prod- ucts and general freights. This centers at Little Rock, Pine Bluff, and at the mouth of the river, from where it moves over the Missis- sippi River to final destination. Three-fifths of the commerce goes to Mississippi points. At Little Rock privately owned terminals for handling forest products and sand are adequate. The public-owned paved bank slope there, locally called “The City Wharf,” amply sup- lies the needs of river commerce at this time. At Pine Bluff the anding space at the privately owned steamboat warehouse is limited and restricted to the needs of the owner. From the limitation on the use of the landing space and because of the team haul necessary to make connection with a railway, it may be said that the terminal facilities at Pine Bluff are not adequate. There does not appear to be any general interest in the improvement of terminal facilities at 1190 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1.191 public expense, the users of the facilities being but a small per cent of the community. Direct rail and water connection, as an economic feature in movement of farm products, seems desirable at this place. It is thought that this should be afforded through a publicly owned terminal fitted with appliances for direct transfer of freights between boat, and rail and provided with storage warehouse for package freights. WHITE RIVER, ARK. The head of steamboat navigation on this river is at Forsyth, Mo., 505 miles above the mouth of the stream. The existing project for improvement provides for maintenance of three locks and dams, affording slack-water navigation from Batesville to Guion, 33 miles above, and for dredging between Batesville and Black River to deepen the channel and for clearing the channel below Batesville of snags and similar obstructions. • Except for an occasional raft of cedar or railway ties, no commerce is moved over the river above Guion at this time. The commerce utilizing the slack watered section of the stream consists of movement of forest products—rough cooperage and wagon stock—and farm products to Batesville with small amount of general freights as return commerce. The annual quantity is about 13,000 tons; 12,000 tons of which is forest products. It is moved in barges of 40 to 60 tons capacity, having load draft of 2% to 3 feet, towed by motor boats of 10 to 20 net registered tons. Below Batesville, forest products (saw logs and rough cooperage) make the bulk of the com- merce. General freights and farm products are added to the com- merce items at Augusta and towns farther down the stream. New- port, 7 miles below mouth of Black River, is an important commercial center for Black River commerce, that commerce coming over White River for that distance to make a rail connection. Below Batesville the annual movement is 218,000 tons; 205,000 of which is forest products. The forest products are moved in raft and in barges varying in load capacities between 90 and 600 tons and having load drafts varying between 3% and 7 feet. The general freights and farm products are generally moved by stern wheel packet boats of 45 to 135 net registered tons, although occasionally barges are util- ized in the movement of rice. Privately owned terminals provide ample facilities for handling forest products. No general effort is made to maintain terminals for public use. It is thought that termi- nals of this nature should be provided at Newport, Augusta, Claren- don, Crocketts Bluff, and St. Charles. At each of these an incline track with tramcar connection between boat and warehouse would be suitable for the present needs. BLACK RIVER, ARK. AND MO. This river, a tributary to White River, Ark., has its head for boat navigation at Poplar Bluff, Mo., 212 miles above its mouth. Through the extreme low-water periods its navigation depths are about 18 inches from Poplar ºff" to mouth of Current River, 116 miles, and about 2% feet below Current River. For 9 to 10 months of the year navigation depths of twice those just stated obtain. The existing project provides for clearing the channel of snags and similar, ob- structions and for occasional dredging in the reaches below Black 1.192 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Rock. The entire navigable portion of the river is used for com- merce. Above Black Rock the use is limited solely to movement of forest products—saw logs, rough cooperage, and wagon stock. This is handled in raft and in barges of 60 to 80 tons capacity with full load draft of 3 feet. Below Black Rock general freight and farm products are added to the items of commerce. The annual quantity for the entire river is 161,000 tons of which 157,700 tons are forest products. Privately owned terminals at Brookings, Pocahontas, and Black Rock are sufficient for the commerce arising from forest products. The terminal for such general freights and farm products as are moved on this river is at Newport on White River. CURRENT RIVER, ARK. AND MO. The river is a tributary of Black River. Van Buren, Mo., 94 miles above its mouth, is the head of navigation for small stern wheel motor boats. Pitmans Landing near the State line is the head of navigation for steamboats. The existing project provides for clear- ing the channel below Van Buren of snags and bowlders and for deepening the channel by contraction works. No work has been done under the last-mentioned phase of the project. The channel depths at low water are 10 to 12 inches from Van Buren to Doniphan. From there to Little Black River they are about 14 inches. }. Little Black River the low-water depths are 3 to 3.5 feet. The depths throughout the year will average about twice those just stated. In the lower river, i. e., below Little Black, the commerce— all forest products—is moved either in rafts or in barges of 60 to 80 tons capacity. Above Doniphan, the forest products—logs and ties—are floated loose. A small quantity of farm products is trans- ported into Doniphan by small motor boats (farmer owned) of 2 to 4 tons capacity. The annual commerce is 15,000 tons, 14,850 tons of which are forest products. The commerce arising on the lower river, i. e., below Little Black, goes to terminals on Black River. The commerce arising between Van Buren and Doniphan centers at Doniphan. Here the landing space available for public use is the end of a town street. ST. FRANCIS RIVER, ARK. This river is a tributary to the Mississippi River, into which it empties near Helena, Ark. It has two navigable sections. The lower section extends from the Mississippi River to Claunch, Ark., 190 miles, where it ends in a swamp. The upper section begins on the upper side of the swamp 235 miles from the Mississippi River, about opposite Gibson, Mo., and extends upstream to Wappapello, Mo., 103 miles farther. Ties and logs have been floated from the vicinity of Green- ville, Mo., 21 miles above Wappapello. In its navigable portion above the swamp the low-water channel depths, when cleared of snags, are 18 inches to 2% feet over the controlling shoals. For the greater part of the year the navigable depths are two to two and a half times those just stated. The commerce on the upper section is confined solely to the movement of forest products, probably not exceeding 5,000 tons annually at this time, to privately owned terminals at Fisk, Mo., and St. Francis, Ark. Those terminals are adequate. The WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1193 navigable capacity of the lower section, in so far as the part below Marked Tree is concerned, is controlled principally by the stages of the Mississippi River, which at extreme flood gives backwater to Marked Tree. When uninfluenced by the Mississippi River the low- water flow of St. Francis does not give channel depths greater than 12 to 16 inches. For eight months of the year navigable depths greater than 3 feet and for six months of the year depths greater than 6 feet can be taken to Marked Tree. The improvement of the lower navigable section is under project that provides for clearing the channel up to Marked Tree, Ark., 148 miles from the Mississippi, of Snags and i. obstructions with a view to rendering the natural depths fully available during the navigation seasons. Blackfish Bayou, up to Fifteen Mile Bayou, 6 miles, and L'Anguille River up to Marianna, 8 miles, are included in the St. Francis River project. From the navi- gation viewpoint, those streams are but sloughs of the St. Francis and only º through the backwater effects of Mississippi and St. Francis Rivers. The annual commerce is 260,000 tons, made up of 252,000 tons of saw logs in barge or raft; 5,500 tons of rough cooperage stuffs in barges, and 2,500 tons of general freights and agricultural products. The barges used vary in capacity from 40 to 45 tons for those used solely in St. Francis River to 900 tons for those carrying forest º to Mississippi River points. The terminal points are Marked ree, Parkin, Madison, Marianna, and Mississippi River points. The existing p ivately owned terminals at those points are ample for the handling of the forest products. The commerce arising from general freights and agricultural products is so divided among the different terminals that there is not enough at any one of them to warrant establishment of new or additions to the present facilities for handling those classes of commerce, except perhaps at Marianna. Here it would seem advisable, if advantage is to be taken of the Gov- ernment transportation line on the Mississippi River, that the old steamboat warehouse and its incline tram be repaired and made useful for the six or seven months that it can be used for connection with Mississippi River boats. # WATER, TERMINAL AND THANSIFER FACILITIES.

LOUIS, MO., DISTRICT. COL. WILD URR WILLING, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. MISSISSIPPI RIVER BETWEEN THE MOUTHS OF THE OHIO AND MISSOURI IRIVERS. The St. Louis engineer district embraces the 200-mile section known as the middle Mississippi, between the tributary Ohio and Missouri Rivers, 1,078 and 1,278 miles, respectively, from the Gulf. The existing project for the improvement of this section of the river provides for dredging and regulation works to obtain and maintain at low water (1 foot St. Louis gage, and 4 feet Cairo gage) a minimum channel depth of 8 feet from mouth of Ohio River to St. Louis, 183 miles, and 6 feet thence to mouth of Missouri River, 17 miles; minimum width of channel to be 200 feet: Although there are numerous steamboat landings of importance in the St. Louis engineer district, the principal harbors are St. Louis Mo. (10 miles above to 8 miles below Eads Bridge); East St. Louis, Ill. (1 mile above to 1 mile below Eads Bridge); Ste. Genevieve, Mo. (57) *; Chester, Ill. (73) ; Grand Tower, Ill. (104) *; Cape Girardeau, Mo. (131) *; Thebes, Ill. (140) *; and Commerce, Mo. (144) 1. The wharf for Cairo, Ill., is on the Ohio River and 1 to 4 miles above its mouth, therefore not within this river district. The latest figures available on the commerce handled on the Mississippi River in this engineer district are those for the calendar year 1917, compiled from the reports of various water carriers. They show for 47 steamboats ranging in registered tonnage from 46 to 1,479, a total of 1,342 arrivals; and for 62 barges ranging in registered tonnage from 100 to 1,000, a total of 105 arrivals at the port of St. Louis. These boats carried freight amounting to 293,248 short tons (26,348,224 ton-miles), with an approximate value of $15,401,544. Ferry traffic, by far the largest class of river business handled in the district and including that handled over inclines by the various railroad car ferries, amounted to a total of 4,238,347 short tons (3,215,292 ton-miles) with an approximate value of $122,756,126. Finally, the grand total of river traffic handled in the district, including Government materials transported, and sand barged, is 5,318,922 short tons (33,568,796 ton-miles) with an approximate value of $138,435,181. Also 694,928 passengers were carried. The principal articles of freight carried were: Iron and aluminum ores, coal and coke, oils, grain and products, cotton, fruit and vegetables, groceries and provisions, garbage, iron and steel, lumber and logs, vehicles, automobiles, live stock and products, brick, lime, cement, stone, sand, gravel, chat used for railroad ballast, railroad cars, ice and miscellaneous. 1 Figures in parentheses following a locality indicate miles below Eads Bridge, St. Louis, unless otherwise noted. 1211 1212 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. In general the water carriers operating on the middle Mississippi may be divided into four classes according to their use, namely, towboats, packet boats, ferry boats, and excursion boats. Towboats vary in size from the Small screw propelling tugs of about 50 tons displacement to the powerful Sprague, with a displacement of 1,479 tons; nearly all are of the stern paddle wheel type, a few being screw propelled, while all use steam for motive power. In the case of towboats, freight, either package or bulk, is carried in barges (housed over or not according to the class of freight) which are towed along- side or ahead. Freight in any considerable quantity is not carried on the towboat itself. Packet boats are nearly all stern paddle wheel steamboats with considerable capacity between decks for package freight and live stock, and cabin room on the boiler (second) deck and “Texas” (third) deck for passengers as well; they are seldom less than 100 tons nor greater than 1,000 tons displacement. Of ferry boats there are two distinct classes, ferry boats in the usually accepted meaning of the term, for vehicles, trucks, or foot passengers, and railroad car ferries or transfer boats. Ferry boats are usually small stern paddle wheel steamboats, where, as with packet boats, the freight is carried between decks. Transfer boats, onto which cars for ferrying are run directly, are always side paddle wheel steamboats. Where cars are not run onto the ferry boat, a towboat, usually stern wheel, is used in connection with a transfer barge provided with railroad tracks. Excursion boats are either stern or side paddle wheel steamboats, varying in displacement from 500 to 1,000 tons and, like packet boats, are usually equipped with two or more decks above the main deck. * ST. LOUIS, MO. The St. Louis Harbor, by far the largest in the district, extends from about 10 miles above to 8 miles below Eads Bridge. Within the limits of this harbor there are about 21 river terminals, 12 of which are worthy of mention, and they will be treated in down- stream order as follows: o At the foot of Gano Avenue (4 above) is located the “Burlington” grain elevator, one of the largest in the city. It is situated between the river bank and the main line of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad, and is provided with a railroad spur track on the west side for loading and unloading cars directly, and on the east or river side with a modern river house for loading barges only. The ele- vator and river house are both of frame construction, the former having a masonry, and the latter a piling foundation. The river house is provided with six chutes or spouts for loading grain into barges. These spouts are fed from temporary storage hoppers in the river house, which in turn are ºf by two electrically driven belt conveyors running through wooden galleries from and to the main elevator. Practically the only criticism to be made of this terminal is that no provision is made for transfer of grain from barges to elevator. This is not serious, however, as the natural direction of the movement of grain is toward the seaboard, which means in this particular case that the elevator serves the interior as a collecting and storage point, whence it may be shipped via the Mississippi River to New Orleans for export; thus necessitating at the elevator equipment for loading barges only. The “Burlington” WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1213 elevator, like practically all river terminals in the St. Louis Harbor, has connection with all parts of the city over paved streets, and may be considered entirely adequate for the present traffic, and indeed for a much larger volume of traffic than is now offered, but provision should be made for the unloading of small barges from the Missouri, Upper Mississippi, and Illinois Rivers so they may become active as “feeders.” A very economical and comparatively inexpensive type of ter- minal facility is the steel derrick of the St. Louis Basket & Box Company, located at the foot of Angelica Street (3 above). This is one of three such installations at St. Louis, the other two being located at the foot of Arsenal Street (3), and at the foot of Dover Street (6); all are practically similar in construction, with booms about 90 feet in length. At present they are used exclusively for transferring logs from barges to the main river bank; but there is no reason why this type of derrick could not be used advantageously for handling many other kinds of freight, especially as its first cost and maintenance are not excessive. These derricks are electrically Operated, and are of steel construction on concrete foundations. Each terminal is provided with adequate rail connections, and is served by paved streets. Such terminals are entirely adequate for the purpose for which they were built and could handle a much greater traffic than is now offered. Also, it is understood that, while at present these terminals are used by the owners exclusively, terms could be arranged, should occasion demand, whereby they could be used by others as well. Next in downstream order is the new river terminal being built by the city of St. Louis, at the foot of North Market Street (1} above). This structure when completed will consist of five unit sections of reinforced concrete, each 160 feet in length, with openings 22% feet wide between units to accommodate elevators of 15 tons capacity for raising and lowering trucks so they may be loaded or unloaded directly from or to boats. There is also a temporary wooden ware- house for storage of freight. The North Market Street terminal, or “Municipal Dogk,” will be modern in every respect, being so arranged that either electric or steam revolving locomotive cranes or travel- ing overhead gantries may be used for transferring freight between cars, trucks, or warehouse and boats or barges. There are railroad sidings between the outer face of the “dock” and the warehouse, and a spur track (all owned by the city), which have connection, over the tracks of the Terminal Railroad Association, with all trunk lines en- tering the city. North Market Street presents an ideal paved high- .# connection, being unusually wide and leading with easy grades to Broadway, the main north and south thoroughfare in the vicinity of the river. As already stated the five unit sections when completed will have a total river frontage of 890 feet; two of the units have been completed and are already in use, the barges of the Mississippi River section of the Mississippi-Warrior Waterways, United States Rail- road Administration, having discharged and taken on cargo there; the third unit is practically finished, making 525 feet of dockage at present available; the foundations of the other two units are finished and it is expected they will be completed as the funds therefor be- come available and as traffic demands. This facility is a public terminal for the use of which there will be charged a reasonable tariff, not yet fixed, but probably to be determined by the actual 1214 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. cost of handling and storing freight. This seems to be the best type of river terminal for a large inland river port like St. Louis, as by use of the vertical landing walls and cranes it eliminates the disadvan- tages due to variations in river stage, and is capable of handling efficiently and economically freight of all kinds and in large quanti- ties. The next terminal of importance is the sand-handling plant of the Missouri Portland Cement Company, at the foot of Tyler Street (1% above), which is probably the best installation of its kind in the harbor. This terminal consists of a steel tower on concrete founda- tion sº a steel cantilever crane with clam-shell bucket. Within the tower is a hopper into which sand is dumped, whence it is fed to a belt conveyor which runs through an inclined supporting steel truss, dumping into a concrete storage bin. Beneath the storage bin are railroad tracks and driveways so that cars and wagons may be loaded very expeditiously. Rail connection with all trunk lines entering the city is obtained over the Municipal Belt Railway, owned by the city and leased to the Terminal Railroad Association; and there is easy access to all parts of the city over paved streets. This terminal is considered a very modern and economical plant, thor- oughly adequate for the purpose for which designed. Another private river terminal is that of the Union Electric Light & Power Co., at the foot of Ashley Street (1/2 above). This plant, for handling coal and somewhat similar to the sand plant just described, consists of two steel towers on masonry foundation, each supporting a 60-foot steel cantilever beam carrying a steam-operated grab bucket which takes coal from barges and deposits it in storage bins Over the boiler room of the power plant. Although there is a rail- road siding at the plant, there is no interchange of traffic between river and rail, as this terminal was built to supply the power plant with coal; it is entirely adequate for the purpose for which built, but is not available for public use. e At the foot of Spruce Street (2/3), is the ferry landing of the Wiggins Ferry Co., a subsidiary company of the Terminal Railroad Associa- tion. The terminal facilities here consist of a wooden wharf boat moored to the paved wharf. A steam ferryboat is used to transport assengers and freight across the river. The ferries (including car erries) are, in amount of traffic handled, the largest water carriers in the district. However, car ferries, which carry the most of this traffic, do not come within the meaning of the act, strictly speaking, as they are parts of the railroads which they connect. Ordinary ferries such as the one at the foot of Spruce Street (and they are practically all alike) have no physical connection with railroads and there is no interchange of traffic between river and rail. The traffic carried consists chiefly of freight in wagons and trucks, and passen- gers. The paved wharf connects the ferry landing with the paved ; of the city. The ferries are considered adequate for present traffic. Stretching along the central part of the St. Louis river front from the foot of Biddle Street (1/2 above) to the foot of Chouteau Avenue (1), are 1% miles of paved wharf. This wharf is paved with granite blocks mostly in good condition, and is owned by th. city of St. Louis. Where wharf boats are used, they are moored to the wharf and are moved up and down the bank slope according to the stage of the river, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1215 freight being transferred between boat and wharf boat directly, and thence to the shore by hand truck or other vehicle over small truss bridges º with rollers at the shore end. These wharf boats are usually of wood construction housed over for storage of freight but not equipped with any mechanical appliances for handling it. Where there are no wharf boats (and this is the case throughout the district, except at St. Louis and East St. Louis), steamers load an d unload freight by hand, using landing stages of wooden construction, 30 to 60 feet in length, suspended from booms on the derrick masts of the steamers and raised and lowered by the steam capstans of the latter. This paved wharf, with the privately owned wharf boats moored thereto, serves all classes of steamboats except towboats. Steamboat lines that maintain wharf boats pay annually to the city $1.50 perfront foot of wharf used for mooring purposes, but no landing charge is made. As for physical connection between the river and railroads, there is none direct, at this wharf, as there is no interchange of traffic here between water and rail carriers. The Municipal Belt Railway, however, owned by the city and leased to the terminal Railroad Association, parallels this portion of the water front, and is not over 200 feet distant therefrom. The paved wharf as used with or without wharf boats is entirely adequate for the traffic offered, and º, the addition of suitable warehouses could handle a much greater VOIUllme. At the foot of Chouteau Avenue (1), is located the old “Central B’’ grain elevator, owned by the J. H. Teasdale Commission Co., and very similar to the “Burlington” already described. A new river gallery, a temporary wooden structure, recently added at a cost of $25,000, houses a steam-driven belt conveyor supplying two loading spouts or chutes. This is a new installation, but like all other grain elevators along the river, it lacks facilities for unloading barges. Between the river gallery and the main building are spur tracks giving rail con- nection to all trunk lines entering the city; and the elevator may be reached from all parts of the city over paved streets. The new river terminal is entirely adequate for present traffic, but the same remarks apº here, in re provision for “feeders,” as to the Burlington elevator. he next terminal worthy of mention, the railroad incline at the foot of Miller Street (1}), is owned by the city and leased to the ter- minal Railroad Association. At present it is used by the lessor as part of its terminal rail system in connection with a steam tugboat and a transfer barge of 12-car capacity, the principal freight carried being grain in cars. But its chief significance in this survey lies in the fact that it has been and can be used for the transfer of freight directly between cars and boats. It is the opinion of competent judges in the matter that the St. Louis Municipal Bridge recently con- Fº could care for all traffic now handled over inclines by transfer oats, thus releasing the inclines for use in transferring freight directly between boats and cars. Most of the inclines are provided with adequate rail connections and switching facilities, and where they are not so provided, as in the case of some inclines withdrawn from use, such connections could be restored at small expense. It is esti- mated that 50 cars per day can be loaded or unloaded at one incline, which would accommodate the tonnage of 3 to 5 barges. As there are some 7 inclines along the St. Louis water front (only 2 in use at present), it is evident that their use as suggested would greatly facili- tate and cheapen the interchange of traffic between river and rail. 1216 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The “Ore dock” of the Mississippi Valley Iron Co. at the foot of Iron Street (6%), is one of the best types of privately owned river terminals in the St. Louis harbor. The “dock” or pier consists of piling trestle work, on furnace slag or riprap foundation, supporting railroad tracks, the appliance being a steam-revolving locomotive crane with grab bucket for loading and unloading directly from car to barge or vice versa, besides switching and spotting its own cars if desired. This is a highly efficient type of river terminal, as it has direct connection with all railroads entering the city, can handle any kind of freight either bulk or package regardless of variation in river stage, and its first cost and maintenance are not prohibitive. Mention may be made also of the “Marine Ways”, owned and operated by the Philip A. Rohan Boat, Boiler & Tank Co. at the foot of Marceau Street (73). This boat yard is equipped to dock, build, or repair practically any size or type of river craft. While not a river terminal, it is as necessary to river transportation as the repair shop to the railroad. The railroad incline of the Missouri Pacific Railroad Co. at West Ivory (8%), while not within the St. Louis Harbor may be so considered, as it is just beyond the southern city limits. This incline, built on º protected by riprap, is the most important terminal of its ind in the district, handling a greater volume of traffic than any other single terminal. The equipment consists of the steam towboat James Y. Lockwood and the transfer barge Jewett with a capacity of 26 cars. The administration of the port of St. Louis is in the hands of the department of public utilities, division of streets and sewers; and the street commissioner, who holds office under this division, has immediate charge of harbor and wharf matters. Of a total length of water front of over 19 miles, the city owns or controls 6.8 miles, of which about 2 miles, improved with paving, are available as public landings for all water carriers on equal terms. Any class of freight except lumber and logs brought in rafts or railroad cars may be un- loaded on the wharves free of charge, provided it is removed within a reasonable length of time. In the appendix are given copies of the ordinances governing the use of harbor and wharves. There seems to be on the whole considerable interest shown in the improvement of river terminals, both public and private, at St. Louis. As stated in a previous paragraph, the city has under con- struction a modern river terminal with adequate rail connections at the foot of North Market Street (1% above), and is contemplating the erection of another terminal at the foot of Victor Street (2%), similar in design and equipment to the North Market Street terminal. As yet no general plan of water-front improvement has been adopted although several schemes of more or less merit have been suggested. There are quite a number of modern privately owned terminals on the river front, most of them provided with adequate rail connections, and it is thought that, while for future traffic more such terminals both publicly and privately owned should be provided, a much greater than the present traffic could be handled by a more extended use of the existing facilities. The St. Louis Port may be considered fairly efficient as regards freight and coal handling facilities, but its efficiency could be greatly increased by the addition of more and better storage facilities in connection with its present terminals. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1217 EAST ST. LOUIS, ILL. In the East St. Louis Harbor there are some eight river terminals, of which only four are worthy of mention in this report, the others being unimportant or similar to some in the St. Louis Harbor already de- scribed. Of these four, the first, and for this discussion the most important, is the terminal (+) of the Mississippi River section of the Mississippi-Warrior Waterways, United States Railroad Administra- tion. This terminal consists of a “dock” or pier 20 by 30 feet, and frame warehouse, 75 by 187 feet, on piling foundations, all in fairly good condition. The freight-handling appliances are a motor-driven chain conveyor and a 2-ton electric telpher for transferring freight directly between barges and warehouse. As has been indicated in the first report, the bulk of the tonnage handled by packet boats consists of package freight and live stock, and of such freights there is little interchange between river and rail. However, this terminal forms an important exception to the general rule just stated, in that the boats of the new barge line accept for transport either package or bulk freight, and there is considerable interchange of both classes of freight between river and rail. This wharf, formerly belonging to the Kansas City—Missouri River Navigation Co., and built at a cost of approximately $23,000, connects with all trunk lines entering St. }. and East St. Louis; it has handled considerable quantities of package freight in recent years, and now handles from 100 to 150 Carloads per month brought in barges by towboats of the Mississippi- Warrior Waterways. - A short distance below the wharf just described is a rather unique terminal, being a coal-handling plant consisting of a hopper, dump cars, and a steel cradle that is moved, according to the river stage, straight up or down the levee slope on an inclined track. Coal is dumped from railroad cars into the hopper at the top of the bank, thence into the dump cars, operated over the incline and cradle by a steel cable, electrically driven, thence into boats and barges through a chute at the river end of the cradle. This terminal, owned by the Terminal Railroad Association, naturally has rail connection with all railroads entering East St. Louis, but the interchange of traffic (coal) is from rail to river only, and that only for boats of the Wiggins º Co., a subsidiary of the Terminal Railroad Association, as Stated. - Another coal handling terminal on the East St. Louis water front is that of the Southern Coal, Coke & Mining Co. located at the river end of Pittsburgh Dike (1). This terminal consists of trestle work supporting railroad tracks with a steel hopper and chute at the river end, all resting on the substantial masonry of the dike. Rail connections with all trunk lines entering the city are provided over the tracks of the Alton & Southern Railroad Co. Although privately owned this terminal is available for public use at a reasonable charge; it is however a special type of terminal, from rail to river only, requiring freight to be delivered in self-cleaning hopper bottom cars. The last of the four important terminals described under the East St. Louis water front is “Fox Terminal” (3) of the Aluminum Ore Co. . This terminal is a piling trestle or wharf 700 feet long, sup- porting an electrically driven belt conveyor and railroad tracks, on 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—77 1218 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. which steam revolving locomotive cranes operate, transferring freight directly between barges and cars. This wharf, built and owned by the Alton & Southern Railroad Co., is a rail and river terminal for public use, although at present used almost exclusively º the Aluminum Ore Co., whose alumina plant is in East St. Louis, about 3 miles distant. The latter corporation is one of the largest individual users of the Mississippi River, having chartered among others, the Sprague, the most powerful towboat on the western rivers, and a fleet of barges. Bauxite (aluminum ore) is brought from Bauxippi, Ark., and on down trips coal and some package freight is carried. This is an ideal river terminal, modern through- out, especially in freight handling appliances, and having rail con- nections with all main lines entering St. Louis and East St. Louis, could be used advantageously as a shipping and receiving terminal by other east side manufacturing plants. As the East St. Louis water front or wharf is owned and controlled entirely by private individuals or corporations (mainly by the Wiggins Ferry Co.) there is no port administration by the city, except in the case of ferries, for which ordinances covering the licensing thereof have been passed. East St. Louis could scarcely be called an efficient port, although the few river terminals located there (all privately owned) are individually modern and efficient. The river front is occupied almost exclusively by manufacturing plants and railroad yards, and, it is thought, they could profit- ably support a greater number of river terminals than at present, or, at least, should use the present terminals to a much greater eXtent. STE. GENEVIEVE, MO. The next locality of commercial importance below St. Louis is the city of Ste. Genevieve, Mo., 2 miles downstream from its river terminus at Little Rock Landing (57), and slightly inland from the river. The steamboat landing used by packet boats and others at Little Rock is on the natural rock bank; the only improvements being a one-story corrugated iron warehouse 20 by 20 feet, and a good gravel road leading to Ste. Genevieve. Although there are nearby railroad sidings, Illinois Southern, and St. Louis-San Francisco Railroads, there is no interchange of traffic between river and rail. The water terminal serving Ste. Genevieve is privately owned, and, being beyond the limits of the city, there are no so-called port charges or port administration; the landing keeper makes charges, however, amounting to about 20 per cent of the freight bills. The landing at Little Rock is adequate for all traffic offered at present; but by the addition of an ordinary boom derrick, such as is described in paragraph 9, and an additional and larger warehouse, this terminal could furnish and handle a much greater volume of traffic. A short distance below the steamboat landing and at a point opposite it in Illinois are the inclines of the Illinois Southern Railroad Co., which crosses the river there by means of the side-wheel transfer steamboat, the Kellogg, of 14 cars capacity. A large tonnage is thus transferred annually, consisting principally of grain and products, live stock and products, fruit, wine, lumber, coal, and coke, iron and steel, concen- trates, brick, lime, cement, sand, gravel, chat, groceries and miscel- laneous; the only interchange of traffic between river and rail being º WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1219 coal for the transfer boat and occasionally other boats. A modern terminal there on either side of the river and having rail connection with the Illinois Southern, which intersects all trunk lines in the vicinity of the Mississippi River, would serve the nearby, territory, and within a little time would probably become an important ‘‘feeder” for the river. * CHESTER, ILL. At Chester, Ill. (73), are two river terminals, the paved wharf and a railroad incline. The city of Chester placed rough paving (more in the nature of riprap) along 400 feet of the river front, at a cost of approximately $25,000; and this together with a frame warehouse comprise the public water terminal facilities. All steamboats are charged $1 per landing when loading or unloading freight; for pas- sengers only there is no landing charge. There are three railroads entering Chester, the Wabash, Chester & Western, the Illinois Southern and the St. Louis-Southwestern, all having sidings on the river front; but there is practically no interchange of traffic between river and rail. The present facilities seem adequate for present traffic; but, for future traffic, the same suggestion applies here as for Ste. Genevieve, Mo.—that the addition of a simple boom derrick and larger warehouse would admit of handling a much greater volume of traffic than at present. A short distance below the public wharf is an old incline owned by the Wabash, Chester & Western Railroad Co., formerly used to transfer cars between Chester, Ill., and Claryville, Mo., and now used in connection with a small steam towboat and transfer barge of 4-car capacity for transferring cars between a small sand dredge, where they are loaded, and the incline whence they are drawn onto sidings by locomotives. Incidentally, plans for restoring the railroad transfer service at this point are now being considered in connection with rebuilding the incline of the Cape Girardeau & Northern Railroad Co. at Claryville, Mo., opposite Chester. These, together with a small gasoline ferry boat plying between Chester and Claryville, comprise all of the terminal and transfer facilities of € Chester, fil. GRAND TOWER, ILL. The next place of commercial importance along the river in down- stream order is Grand Tower, Ill. (104). Years ago this little city, due to its proximity to the Big Muddy coal mines, was one of the most im– portant coal distributing centers in the Illinois district, supplying many other river towns, as well as steamboats of all kinds. §. Tower, then boasting a coal tipple and a railroad incline, was a thriving little city. Both terminals are now gone, railroads which parallel both river banks having deprived Grand Tower of its principal river traffic— coal—and greatly retarded the development of practically all the smaller river towns. However, the Merchants’ Basket & Box Co., of Grand Tower, own and operate a derrick which is the only modern river terminal facility in the district outside the St. Louis and East St. Louis Harbors. The terminal consists of a steam-operated wooden boom derrick supported by a piling crib filled with macadam and earth, located near the north end ..? the town, and just below the site of the former coal tipple. The derrick is now used to unload logs from barges to wagons, is more than adequate for that purpose, and by the 1220 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. statement of the owners is available for public use at a reasonable charge, which could be arranged. Within 200 feet of the derrick is a railroad siding owned by the Big Muddy Coal Co. and connecting with a branch of the Illinois Central Railroad. Just north of the log derrick is the regular steamboat landing (earth bank not subject to caving), which, in connection with an old frame warehouse (about 20 by 30 feet), constitutes the public terminal facilities. No landing charge is made, but about 10 per cent of the freight bills is charged for storage of freight in, or transfer through, the warehouse. So far as known there is no port administration, as all terminals are privately owned. If the coal tipple were rebuilt, the river coal trade might be revived, resulting perhaps in cheaper coal for the river towns. How- ever, a new and larger storage warehouse used in connection with the resent log derrick would provide Grand Tower with terminal facilities amply adequate for th. immediate future. CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO. The third largest city on the river in this district is Cape Girardeau, Mo. (131), the industrial and distributing center for southeast Missouri. The principal commodities handled are farm products, live stock and º lumber, ties, logs, sand, gravel, stone, clay, lime, brick, tile, hides, and shoes, groceries and provisions, ice, and miscellaneous mer- chandise, a fairly large share of which is shipped and received by river annually. The public terminal facilities consist of a sloping aved wharf, 1,000 feet long, built by the city and the St. Louis-San rancisco Railroad Co. at approximate costs of $75,000 and $47,000, respectively. The railroad company also built two concrete walls costing approximately $118,000; one extending along the top of the - º wharf, the other exposed only at low-water stages along the Oot of the wharf slope. The wharf is available for public use at $2 per day or fraction thereof for receiving or discharging freight, and 25 cents per day or fraction thereof for landings. There are no mºnº appliances for freight handling, but freight for water carriers is stored in a masonry warehouse located on the front street, but about 200 feet distant from the contour of mean stage of river. This terminal is considered adequate for present traffic, is reached by F. streets and improved roads; there is no interchange of traffic etween river and rail, although the St. Louis-San Francisco Rail- road Co. has railroad sidings at the top of the paved wharf. A small steam ferryboat for vehicles and passengers plies between Cape Girardeau, Mo., and East Cape Čºrdºn. Ill., and a gasoline boat for passengers only between Cape Girardeau and Thebes, Ill. (140). It seems that a town the size of Cape Girardeau which expects to handle any great amount of traffic in the future should provide a modern river and rail terminal, with an adequate warehouse near by. THEBES, ILL. At Thebes, Ill. (140), the next river town of any importance, we find no improved terminals of any kind, the earth-covered rock bank and a frame warehouse serving the present river traffic. The river front is publicly owned and no landing charge is made for its use; but the warehouse is privately owned and a charge equal to about 10 per cent of the freight bills is made for handling and storage of freight WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1221. therein. Three railroads enter the town (which is just above the Thebes Bridge), namely, the Chicago & Eastern Illinois, the St. Louis Southwestern, and the Illinois Central; all have railroad sidings on the water front, but there is no interchange of traffic between river and rail. It is probable that Thebes would be benefited by one small modern terminal, especially if interchange of traffic were arranged. COMMERCE, MO. Commerce, Mo. (144), is the last town in the district worth men- tioning, and like most of the small towns along the river has no improved terminal. The wharf, owned by the city, is merely the natural earth-covered rock bank, free to all on equal terms, no landing or wharfage charge being made. Freight is handled and stored in a frame warehouse for a small percentage of the freight charges. A gasoline motor launch is used for ferrying passengers and freight between Commerce, Mo., and Fayville, Ill., the owner using at Com- merce a small hand derrick for unloading freight. The St. Louis- San Francisco Railroad enters the town and has a siding in the vicinity of the wharf, but there is no interchange of traffic between river and rail. Commerce could support a larger and better ferry, and a modern terminal for its river traffic. A considerable tonnage, consisting mostly of lumber, brick, tile, farm products, and live stock, is handled annually. As to port administration, there is none so far as known. - In closing it may be suggested that for inland harbors the size of St. Louis and having its possibilities of river traffic, the most suitable types of terminal are those represented by the Municipal Dock now being built by the city of St. Louis at the foot of North Market Street, and the Fox Terminal of the Aluminum Ore Co. For a city of medium size, as Cape Girardeau, a wharf with pier like that of the Mississippi Valley Iron Co., at the foot of Iron Street, St. Louis, may be recommended as an efficient type; but for the smaller river towns, where traffic is light or intermittent, the most adequate and econom- ical type of terminal is the ordinary steam or electrically operated boom derrick.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES, ROCK ISLAND, IL.L., DISTRICT. MAJ. GEN. A. MACKENZIE, UNITED STATES ARMY, RETIRED, IN CHARGE. There are few, if any, landing places on the upper Mississippi which may be said to be under maintenance or improvement by the United States in the sense of the harbors on the Great Lakes and the sea- coast. There are water terminals at a large number of cities, vil- lages, and landings along the upper Mississippi between Minneapolis and St. Paul and St. Louis, but excepting at a few of the larger cities action by the local interests in the way of establishing suitable or convenient transfer facilities at considerable cost can not be expected until conditions so change as to justify the necessary outlay. Under the existing conditions the arrangements are all that are now justified, unless it be in some cases the construction of small warehouses. - At certain of the larger cities, however, the public owe it to them- selves and to the Government to provide more convenient means of handling freight. Detailed information regarding terminal facilities at such larger cities is given below. While the matter of providing proper water terminals is a favorite one for discussion at most points, actual results º in some cases at least, to be delayed by a feeling on the part of local interests that necessary terminal work is not justified until the means for successful transportation are firmly established; while those whose interests lie in the establishment of such transportation feel that they can not proceed until proper transfer facilities are in actual operation. While results appear long delayed, it is most probable they will in time be accomplished at points where freight conditions appear to justify. The general im- provement of the upper Mississippi involves essentially the improve- ment of the through channel of the river, permitting favorable water communication between Minneapolis and St. Paul and St. Louis and below, incidentally benefiting the numerous cities and landings be- tween these points. The harbors of St. Paul and Minneapolis are not considered in this report, being covered by the report from the St. Paul engineer district. The so-called harbors or terminals on the upper Mississippi are as a rule simply landing places, generally where the main channel runs along the bank. In most cases such landings are adjacent to rail- ways and have excellent highway connections and most, if not all, are publicly owned and free to the public, and in many cases paved landings exist. While some of the principal cities have improved their water ter- minals, there is but one, Alton, which has so far, and that very recently, established railway connection and a modern transfer for freight to and from cars and boats. 1240 IFZI “TT | "NOLT W & ECW OTNſ) O NW & ECWOT = TEV L-Od A Jºiº. º º --- | - "Z-99 Egg tood "H WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1241 The boats used on the upper Mississippi for commercial purposes are flat-bottomed, light draft (3 to 6 feet), wooden hull, high-pressure engines, from 20 to about 300 feet in length. The barges, of which there are few in use, are of similar construction to the hulls of the steamboats. Most of the boats are stern wheel, though a few of the larger are side wheel. They are old and not up to modern require- ments. - The project for improvement provides for a channel of 6 feet at low water stage. At the present time the ruling depth at low water is about 4 feet on Rock Island Rapids, but during a large portion of season considerably greater depths exist. Alton, Ill.; population 25,210.--Landings and terminals are ade- quate for handling and transferring all the freight offered at the present time by water carriers and terminals can readily be extended to meet future demands. Frontage owned in part by city and in part by railroads and private parties. There is a good depth of water at the greater part of the landing but dredging will have to be resorted to at times. There has recently been established at Alton a modern transfer for freight to and from cars and boats. This transfer consists of a pile dock with electrically-operated loader and unloader, an inclined railway track and one stationary derrick. It is the only plant believed to be adequate for all transfer pur- poses so far installed on the upper Mississippi River. It is adapted for a change of 27 feet in river stage, which is a greater range than obtains at any other terminal point on the upper river except at Grafton. At other points the range varies from 15 to 22 feet, although in the pool of the Keokuk water power dam (Lake Keokuk), which includes Fort Madison, Dallas, and Burlington, the range during navigation seasons will probably never exceed 6 or 7 feet. The cost of the plant will vary materially according to the range and also construction and material of the dock. The dock at Alton is built on piles, but this method can not be used at several important points, as at Keokuk, Rock Island, Davenport, and Moline, where the river bottom is of rock. It will, perhaps, on account of probable danger to wooden construction from ice movement, be advisable to build the dock in most cases of concrete masonry. The cost of transfer per ton or per package will be manifestly very low by this method as shown by the figures below given. In fact, so far as at present known to this office, this plant would be well adapted to all localities on the upper Mississippi where local conditions permit and where the amount of traffic would justify the initial cost. The capacity of the loader-unloader is 1,400 packages per hour. After being installed a test was made, using barrels of sand weighing 600 pounds each, and the loader—unloader handled these as rapidly and easily as the smaller packages. During October, 1918, at a very low stage (2 feet on Alton Bridge gage), several barge loads of apples were transferred at this terminal for shipment by rail. The time re- quired to transfer a carload of apples from barge into railroad car ready for shipment was 35 minutes. It is claimed that the speed at which freight can be transferred from barges or boats or railway cars or vice versa depends entirely on the rapidity with which it can be handled and stored in the car or on the boat or barge. 1242 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. A plan for a freight terminal, adapted for service on the upper Mississippi River has been submitted by an elevator manufacturing company. This plan provides for a warehouse 150 feet in length by 80 feet in width, equipped with an electric freight elevator, having a platform 9 feet wide by 17 feet long, designed to carry four loaded four-wheel trucks, equivalent to a maximum load of 10,000 pounds at a speed of 100 feet per minute. Assuming an average load on each truck of 1,000 pounds, the total average net load of freight with four trucks on the elevator will be 2 tons. With the river at its lowest level, the travel of the elevator will be about 20 feet, and under this condition a round trip of the elevator can be made in 3 minutes, or at the rate of 20 round trips per hour, giving a total capacity of 40 tons per hour in each direction. This terminal project appears to have advantages rendering it worthy of consideration for localities where an elevator system is deemed advisable. No one terminal can be contrived to handle all sorts of freight to the best advantage, and even the kind of steamer or barge in which the freight is delivered to the terminal makes a difference in the best mode of putting the freight ashore. Freight all of one kind calls for a special design of terminal, such as coal, bulk grain, and the like. A belt line, or at least a switch under the control of the city owning the terminal is, of course, essential for the transfer of freight from boat to rail or vice versa. One of the essential principles is that the barge or steamboat must not be kept waiting and quick transfer is essential for economy of operation. Freight cars can be allowed to wait at much less expense. ; WAR TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. MISSISSIPPI RIVER BETWEEN ST. PAUL AND MOUTH () F MIS- S() UIR L RIVER . HASTINGS, MINN.

The Mississippi River at this point has a minimum width of about 800 feet at high water. The existing project for improvement (under the Rock Island district) contemplates a channel 300 feet wide and 6 feet deep at low water. Most of the steamboats operat- ing in this vicinity are of the stern-wheel type, varying from about 90 to 160 feet in length. There is one side-wheel boat, however, and this is 265 feet long. These are mostly engaged in the pas- senger excursion business, but there is some package freight carried. A new navigation company is in process of formation and expects to commence operations during the season of 1919 with a fleet of towboats and barges. The latter are to be of 600 tons capacity, and boats and barges are to have a maximum draft of 4% feet. The principal business expected is the hauling of coal from down-river points for local consumption and return trips with iron ore. - Bulk and package freight of other kinds will also be handled. A large business is confidently expected. City levee.—This is the principal terminal and it extends from the upstream line of Jackson Street to the downstream line of Sibley Street, a distance of about 500 feet, and is about 80 feet wide. It is a combination of wharf and levee, and is used by the several steamboats and launches plying on the river. This terminal is sufficient for a considerable increase in the present traffic. The land is owned by the city of St. Paul. A portion of the river frontage has been leased to a private steamboat company which has erected thereon a frame warehouse about 50 by 150 feet. This portion of the wharf is used solely by that company but the balance is open for public use. There are no mechanical transfer facilities nor is there any connection between rail and water, but as the various lines of railway are contiguous to the wharf arrangements for such connection would be comparatively simple. There are two paved streets leading directly from the wharf but the traffic has to pass a dangerous railroad crossing on each street. Municipal dock. —This is a wooden structure on a pile trestle, built in the river alongside the left bank at the foot of Market Street. It is 800 feet long and is connected by a double track with a spur line from the tracks of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway, and is provided with a locomotive crane and a gantry crane, each with a clamshell bucket for unloading coal direct from barge to car and iron ore from car to barge. This wharf is open for public use under regu- lations issued by the city. It is well suited for its purpose and of adequate capacity for a considerable increase in traffic. Connection with paved city streets is poor. 1262 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. I263. Iron ore chutes.—These are hoppers and chutes built into the St. Paul Bridge & Terminal Railway bridge at the southern line of the city limits for the purpose of unloading iron ore from car to barge. The use of these facilities is a matter of traffic agreement between the railroads. This traffic is in an experimental stage, and while the facilities are good they would not be sufficient for a large amount of business, as the cars necessarily block other traffic while being un- loaded. However, if an increase in unloading facilities should later become desirable, there are numerous sites available along the river front with suitable railroad connections. MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. The Mississippi River at this point has a minimum width of about. 500 feet at high water. The back water from the Twin City lock and dam provides a minimum low-water channel 6 feet deep and about. 450 feet wide up to Washington Avenue Bridge. In this part of the river the valley is narrow, the distance between the bluffs being about. 800 feet. As the bluffs are generally about 100 feet high the difficul- ties of transfer between the river and the top of the bluffs are so great as to discourage efforts toward establishing river traffic under existing conditions. The city of Minneapolis has constructed a wharf on the right bank of the river just below the Washington Avenue Bridge. This is about 1,235 feet long and consists of a concrete wall 1,085 feet long fronting a level unpaved fill, with a paved sloping levee 150 feet long at the lower end. The top of the wall is about 11 feet above low water (crest. line of Twin City Dam). This provides an excellent landing place for steamboats, but there are no mechanical appliances for unloading freight. There is no connection between water and rail and the only highway connection is an unpaved street of steep gradient. There is. a project under consideration by the city to erect warehouses along the wharf with all modern terminal annliances and a railroad along the top of the structure connecting with the belt-line railroad. This: would also provide for suitable connection between the wharf and the city streets, so that local freight could be properly handled. Under existing conditions there is not likely to be any development of river traffic at Minneapolis, but if the projected improvements are carried out there is every prospect of a large business. All boats that can operate at St. Paul can also get to Minneapolis, and with the large flour mills located in the latter city that item alone should be an important one. Iron ore could also be brought to Minneapolis by rail and transferred to barges for shipment to down-river points. Coal could be brought up by river and hauled locally or transferred. to cars for shipment by rail. STILLWATER, MINN. Near the head of Lake St. Croix, a widening out of the St. Croix- River, which at this point is about 2,000 feet wide. The project for improvement of the St. Croix River was completed in 1900. It pro- vided for a channel depth of 3 feet at mean low water between the mouth and Taylors Falls. Lake St. Croix is about 25 miles long and extends from the mouth of the river to a short distance above Still- water. Its width varies between 1,500 and 6,500 feet and the ruling . 1264 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. depth is 4 feet at mean low water. This depth could be increased by dredging to 6 feet at comparatively small expense. The St. Croix River discharges into the Mississippi about 27 miles below St. Paul. The terminal at Stillwater is a wharf about 484 feet long and 40 feet wide. It consists of a concrete paved slope and roadway with a retaining wall at the river front, the top of the wall being 7.4 feet above mean low water. It is connected with the city streets at each end and its highest part is about the same elevation as the main business street. The low-water depth at the wharf is 6 feet. There is no connection between water and rail, but the three railroads enter- ing the city run parallel to the wharf and only about 120 feet distant, so that actual connection could be easilv made. There are no mechan- ical appliances for handling freight. The wharf is owned by the city and is open for public use. The traffic at this point is of the same general nature as at St. Paul and the same boats operate at both places. - The possibilities for successful river traffic in bulk commodities are very great. River frontage is available for a large extension to the wharf and the general layout is such that a modern terminal could be constructed at minimum expense. Considering the difficulties of wagon hauling from the river fronts at St. Paul and Minneapolis it is guite likely that bulk freight could be delivered cheaper to those W. by water and rail via Stillwater than by water to St. Paul or inneapolis and wagon from those terminals. Iron ore shipments could be handled just as well from Stillwater as from St. Paul or Minneapolis. It is reported that construction of barges and towboats has been commenced . a Stillwater concern for the purpose of bring- ing coal from down-river points on the Mississippi River, returning with iron ore. OTHER TERMINALS. All other terminals in this district are unimportant and consist of wharfs which are adequate for present needs and will probably be sufficient to take care of such extension of navigation as may occur. lº g WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

The grain elevators formerly operated for º: of grain from barges at Grand Forks, N. Dak., and East Grand Forks, Minn., have been torn down and the railroad side tracks removed. Also an elevator operated near Bellmont, N. Dak., has been torn down. At present there are grain elevators on the river banks operated for receipt and storage of grain hauled in by wagon, which ele- vators could readily be equipped to handle aim from barges on the river, but there is no demand for such service.

In brief, by reason of abundant and conven- ient railroad facilities, there is no demand for movement of commerce by river, there- fore, commercial navigation has ceased, hence no terminal and transfer facilities are required. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. KANSAS CITY, MO., DISTRICT. MR. WILLARD YOUNG, UNITED STATES AGENT, IN CHARGE. MISSOURI RIVER,. Location and description.—The Missouri River is formed by the junction of the Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin Rivers at Three Forks, in southwestern Montana, and enters the Mississippi River about 18 miles above St. Louis, 2,551 miles from Three #. - From Fort Benton, Mont., to the mouth of the river, a distance of 2,285 miles, is the navigable section of the river under improvement by the General Government, the appropriations for which are made for subdivided sections as follows: Kansas City to the mouth....----...--------------------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 398 Kansas City, Mo., to Sioux City, Iowa. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 409 Sioux City, Iowa, to Fort Benton, Mont. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,478 Each subdivision mentioned is the subject of a separate project. The project for the section Kansas City to the mouth provides for a permanent 6-foot channel, with a normal low-water width of 1,200 feet, and the work proposed is the protection of the banks by revet- ments, the contraction of channel by dikes, the removal of snags, and limited dredging. The project for the section Kansas City to Sioux City provides for snagging, for bank revetment at certain specified localities, and for such other bank revetment within the limits of the funds provided as, in the judgment of the Chief of Engineers, may be in the interest of navigation. The project for the section Sioux City to Fort Benton provides for the expenditure of such funds as may be appropriated from time to time in the removal of snags and rocks from the channel and in bank protection work within easy boat reach of landings, towns, and railroad crossings. RANSAS CITY TO THE MOUTH. Commerce.—The commerce reported on this section of the river for the calendar year 1917 amounted to 217,616 short tons. Out of this tonnage 15,217 tons consisted of general merchandise (including manufactured products), grain, feed, live stock, and building mate- rial, valued at $4,931,740; the remainder consisted principally of sand and gravel valued at $62,810. Of the general merchandise, 80 per cent was through freight from Kansas City to the mouth, trans- Fºl by barge and towboat method; and the remaining 20 per cent eing local transportation for short distance on small shallow-draft |boats. The stern wheel is the type of boat used. The usual size is about 100 feet by 20 feet, of 2 to 3 feet draft. One steam, twin tunnel-screw propeller towboat, 150 feet by 26 feet, of 3 feet draft, was operated on the river from 1911 to 1918. 1270 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1271 At Kansas City, Mo. (mile 390.5 above the mouth), a municipally owned water terminal was constructed during 1911 at a cost of $75,000. It consists of a creosoted pile and timber wharf, 526 feet long by 50 feet wide, and a freight house, 306 feet long by 40 feet wide, of structural steel framework covered with metal lath and plaster, with a locomotive crane and telpherage system for handling freight. A railroad spur along the land side at the upper end of the wharf provides for transfer facilities. At Hermann, Mo. (mile 103.3 above the mouth), a municipally owned water terminal has been in use for many years. This is also the point of transfer of freight to and from the Gasconade River. The landing area is limited, but there are two frame warehouses, each 14 feet by 20 feet, and two frame elevators, each 30 by 40 feet, with inclined spur-line connection to the railroad. The freight at this terminal is handled by hand. KANSAs CITY TO SIOUX CITY, Commerce.—The commerce reported on this section of the river for the calendar year amounted to 42,715 short tons valued at $12,790. Ninety-nine per cent of commercial tonnage reported was sand and gravel dredged from the river bed at Leavenworth, St. Joseph, and Omaha, and handled an average distance of 2 miles. The value of this commerce was only 11 per cent of the total traffic. The re- mainder of the commerce consisted principally of grain, produce, and general merchandise transported 85 miles between Omaha and Decatur, Nebr., by boat and barge method. The steam stern-wheel is the type of boat used, the usual size 90 by 20 feet, and of 2 feet draft. There are no well-established terminals on this section of the river. At Omaha, Nebr. (mile 660), a temporary freight house, 18 by 50 feet, has been built on the unimproved river bank with spur-line connec- tion to the railroad. A movable electric spiral grain conveyor is used for unloading grain from boats to cars. All other freight is handled by hand. The existing terminal facilities and boat landing conditions are open to the general public on equal terms and are con- sidered adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. SIOUX CITY TO FORT BENTON. Commerce.—The commerce reported on this section of the river for the calendar year 1917 amounted to 6,285 short tons, valued at $356,339. There was a marked decrease in freight traffic, due mainl to the year's failure of crops. The item of grain alone shows a dif- ference of 13,464 tons less than was transported in 1916. The commerce consists of grain, live stock, and building material transported by boat and barge method. . The stern-wheel, both steam and gasoline, is the type of i. used, the usual size being about 100 feet by 24 feet, with 1.5 to 2 feet draft. There is only one water terminal with freight-house facilities on this section of the river, which is at Bismarck, N. Dak. (mile 1450 above the mouth). This terminal is privately owned and consists of a freight house and ele- vator with spur-line connection to the railroad. The siding is along the top of revetted bank and is open to the general public for inter- change of traffic between the boats and the railroad without charge. 1272 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The elevator is equipped with a small marine grain chute for transfer Of .. from boat to elevator or cars. All other freight is handled bv hand. - - *A. Washburn, N. Dak., is located, on revetted bank, a privately owned elevator with spur-line connection to railroad. At Deapolis, Expansion, and Crows Heart Landing, N. Dak., are located privately owned State-licensed elevators; these places have good dirt-road con- nections with the railroads. - At Lismas, Mont., are located two privately owned warehouses. The above terminal facilities are open to the general public on equal terms and are considered adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. Due to the growing demand for the cheaper movement of farm and other products, the efforts made to use the available navigation facilities began to manifest themselves in the revival of boat traffic about 1908 on the upper and lower river, and on the middle section in 1915. On the upper, river two boat lines were established in 1908, with ports of entry at Williston and Bismarck, N. Dak. On the middle river a boat line was established in 1915 between Omaha and Decatur, Nebr., with a small temporary warehouse as a water ter– minal at Omaha. On the lower river a well-financed boat line was established in 1911, with water terminals and transfer facilities at Kansas City, Mo. (the home port) and East St. Louis, Ill. The tow- boats and barges belonging to this line were sold to the Government. in the summer of 1918 for use on the lower Mississippi River. It is expected that new towboats and barges will be procured in the near future and that regular traffic will be resumed. --- Water terminals and transfer facilities at Kansas City, Mo.—The rapid growth of Kansas City both in population and industries served to emphasize the need for river traffic. The idea of a boat line which would really be a competitor in the freight traffic between Kansas City and St. Louis was fully assured when, in March, 1910, the busi- ness men of Kansas City organized a navigation company with a . working capital of $1,200,000. * To provide a suitable water terminal and transfer facility to meet the needs of such a navigation company, the city of Kansas City, in the spring of 1910, voted in favor of a $75,000 bond issue to cover the cost of the construction of a wharf and freight house. The structure decided upon as giving the greatest utility at the least cost was a creosoted pile .# timber wharf, 50 feet wide and 526 feet long, on the river side, and a freight house 46 feet wide and 306 feet long, of structural steel framework covered with metal lath and plaster. The foundation of the house rests on a concrete base wall, which in turn rests on concrete piles, driven into the river bottom. An earth fill was made between the base walls of the foundation and after proper settlement a granitoid floor was built. The house is located in the rear of the wharf and has a floor area of about 11,300 square feet for storing freight; the remainder of the floor area, about 900 square feet, is occupied as an office. The freight house cost about $30,000. The telpher freight-handling system consists of two lines of run- ways the length of the building for the operation of a 3-ton capacity traveling hoist. The hoist will run out 8 feet over the wharf on a cantilever arm of the track near the two ends of the building. There is also one line of track on the land side for hauling heavy pieces of H. Doc. 652, 66–2, MUNICIPAL WHARF AND TRANSIT SHED, KANSAS CITY, MO, 1272 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1273 freight directly from and to the wharf and wagons. A locomotive i. crane has been installed, operating on a track extending the full ength of the wharf and located with center 15 feet from the river face. This crane has a maximum radius of 35 feet, which allows a swing of 20 feet over the water and to the rear face of the wharf. 'With this arrangement freight may be passed from the boat to the telpher or on the wharf for transfer to the railroad. The wharf has been provided with inclines on which the installa- tion of some form of escalator is a future possibility. A railway switch track has been installed along the rear of that portion of the wharf not occupied by the freight house for the transfer of freight to and from cars. The total bond issue of $75,000 has been expended in the construc- tion of the wharf, freight house, the installation of freight-handling machinery, street paving, and improvement of the river front for easy boat access to the landing. There are no special facilities for coaling. The navigation company boats were oil burners, with supply tanks at Sugar Creek (mile 380), Hermann (mile 103), and at Woodriver on the Mississippi near Alton, Ill. - Ordinances.—1. By an approved ordinance the mayor and city council of Kansas City “authorized and empowered the board of public works to make, establish, promulgate, and enforce all neces- sary rules and regulations governing the municipal wharf and use thereof, and wharfmaster of Kansas City, Mo. * * *.” Wharfmaster.—The wharfmaster's duties were prescribed as follows: 1. The wharfmaster shall collect the following fees: For every steamboat landing at the wharf with barges, $5. For every barge landing at the wharf, $3. For each excursion boat landing at the wharf, $1. No charge shall be made for any boat with a carrying capacity of less than 10 tons. 2. The wharfmaster shall at all times prevent the depositing of any matter or ma-. terial at or along the river front from Broadway to Grand Avenue, except freight and baggage for shipment, and such articles as may be needed in or about the wharf. No person shall land any boat, launch, or vessel of any kind at said wharf without. the permission of said wharfmaster. The wharfmaster shall be in charge of said wharf and shall regulate the place of landing of all boats and vessels of every character, and the placing of freight on said wharf and in the freight house. Penalty.—Any person who shall fail or refrse to pay the charges herein prescribed or who shall violate any of the provisions of this ordinance shall, upon conviction, be fined not less than $1 nor more than $500 for each offense. Annual report of the wharfmaster to the mayor and city council of Kansas City, Mo., for the fiscal year ending April 15, 1918: To the honorable mayor and common council of Kansas City, Mo. GENTLEMEN: I respectfully submit herewith the report of the operations of the municipal wharf and public levee for the fiscal year ending April 15, 1918. Charges. collected are based upon ordinances passed the council and regulations adopted by the board of public works in 1912. The report covers the full 12 months previous.

The war cut the Kansas City-Missouri River Navigation Co.'s receipts down during 1917. Outbound freight was cut out and only local freight handled. Scarcity of cars also cut all freight handling by rail. - Navigation was opened March 1 and closed November 1, 1917. OSAGE RIVER . Location and description.—The Osage River empties into the Mis- souri River 142 miles above its mouth and 8 miles below. Jefferson City, Mo. In recent years the improvement by the General Government has been confined to the section of the river between the mouth and Linn Creek, 109 miles above the mouth. The project provides for a lock and dam near the mouth of the river, and for a channel 80 feet wide and 3 feet deep, to be obtained by the construction of wing dams and training walls and by dredging. Commerce.—The commerce reported for the calendar year 1917 amounted to 28,171 short tons, valued at $725,471. It consisted of general merchandise, machinery, grain, hay, feed, live stock, sand and gravel, and railroad ties. With the exception of railroad ties (20,757 tons), which are mainly rafted, transportation is generally by light-draft towboat and barge. The stern wheel, both steam and gasoline, is the type of boat used, the usual size being about 50 feet by 10 feet with 1.5 to 2 feet draft. - There is only one water terminal on the river, which is at mile 42.8, near Hoecker, and is owned by the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway. This terminal has spur-line connection to the railroad; it consists of an incline track, operated by steam, extending from the water edge to a small warehouse and elevator and is used principally for the transfer of railroad ties, grain and grain products from the river territory for shipment to market over the railroad. The ter- minal facilities are open to the general public on equal terms and are considered adequate to meet the present and prospective require- ments of commerce. - A milling company at Tuscumbia (mile 60) has for many years maintained boat traffic for transportation of grain from the adjacent river territory to its mill and for transfer of its products to Hoecker, Mo. (mile 42.8), for shipment to market by the railroad. With the completion in 1912 of the lock and dam at mile 7, came a revival of traffic on the lower river by the barge and towboat method; and in 1914 with the assurance of open-channel improvement of the river on the upper section, a barge and towboat line was established be- tween Bagnell (mile 70) and Linn Creek, Mo. (mile 109). Future traffic may induce water terminals with rail connections at Osage City (mile 1) and Bagnell (mile 70), utilizing the frontage now used for open storage and direct transfer of freight from boat to cars. GASCONADE RIVER,. (a) Location and description.—The Gasconade River empties into the Missouri River at Gasconade, Mo., 110 miles above its mouth. The navigable section of the river extends from Arlington to its mouth, a distance of 108 miles. The section under improvement by the General Government is from Gascondy to the mouth, a distance of 61.4 miles, though in recent years regulation work for open-channel WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1275 improvement has been confined to the section below the town of Cooper Hill, 39.5 miles above the mouth. The project provides for continuing improvement by open-channel regulation for a channel 80 feet wide and 2 feet deep, to be obtained by the construction of wing dams and training walls, and for maintenance and relief from year to year by the removal of obstructions to navigation. Commerce.—The commerce reported for the calendar year 1917 amounted to 24,523 short tons, valued at $254,443. It consisted of general merchandise, grain, feed, flour, building material, machinery, wood, and railroad ties. With the exception of railroad ties (22,406 tons), which are mainly rafted, transportation is generally by light- draft towboat and barge. The stern wheel, both steam and gasoline, is the type of boat used, the size varying from 90 feet by 18 feet for the steam and 50 feet by 10 feet for the gasoline boat, with 1.5 to 2 feet draft. Because the territory adjacent to the river is not served by rail- roads, boat traffic has been maintained for many years. On the Gasconade River from Cooper Hill (mile 39.5) to the mouth there are about 20 small community owned warehouses located at accessible boat landings for receiving and storing freight. Hermann, Mo., located on the Missouri River, 7 miles below the mouth of the Gas- conade River, is the point of transfer of freight to and from the boats and railroad. The landing area at Hermann is limited, but there are two municipally owned warehouses and elevators with spur-line con- nection to the railroad which are open to the general public on equal terms and are considered adequate for existing and prospective COIIlſlle I’Ce. 2. It is believed that all water terminals in this district of any importance should, as far as possible, be located at points where the river is not liable to shift or silt up; that the banks on which they are to be built, if not naturally permanent, should be revetted; that in a general way the terminals should embody the features and follow the plan of the Kansas City, Mo., water terminal, but should be reduced in size to meet the varying requirements, with the substi- tution of a portable differential hoist or hand-power swing derrick in lieu of a locomotive crane, or some form of escalator or other freight- handling device. This plan, it is thought, will meet the needs of the different com- munities for water terminals, as it is well adapted to the varying conditions of flood and other physical characteristics found on the waterways of the Kansas City, Mo., district. 3. A drawing is submitted showing the general plan for a small water terminal referred to above. ; WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. MISSOURI RIVER, ST. CHARLES, MO. WASHINGTON, MO.

NASHVILLE, TENN., DISTRICT. MR. A. B. McGREW, ASSISTANT ENGINEER, IN CHARGE. CUMBERLAND RIVER, KY. AND TENN. The navigable waters of the Nashville district comprise mainly the Cumberland River from Burnside, Ky., to the mouth, a distance of 519 miles. In discussions and reports on this river, it is usually divided into two parts, viz, above Nashville (Nashville to Burnside, 326 miles) and below Nashville (Nashville to the mouth, 193 miles). The present project for improvement of the river below Nashville provides for dredging to obtain a channel 150 feet wide and 6 feet deep at low water through all shoals between the mouth and Lock F (43.6 miles) and for the construction of six locks and dams (Locks A to F), beginning with Lock A, 41.4 miles below. Nashville, and ending with Lock F, 149 miles below Nashville, to secure 6-foot navigation at low water between Lock F and Lock 1, the first lock constructed under the project for the section of the river above Nash- ville. Under this project, Locks A, B, C, and D have been placed in operation, giving 6-foot navigation between Nashville and Dover, Tenn., a distance of 110 miles. Between Dover and the mouth of the river about 2-foot draft is available for navigation at practically all seasons of the year. Above Nashville the present project provides for Locks and Dams Nos. 1 to 17, inclusive, and No. 21; to secure 6-foot navigation at low water from Nashville to Waitsboro Shoals, 322 miles, and 4-foot navigation from Waitsboro Shoals to Burnside, 4 miles. Of this project, Locks Nos. 1 to 7 and Lock No. 21 have been completed, giving 6-foot navigation from Nashville to West Point (125.2 miles) and from Lock No. 21 to Waitsboro Shoals (25 miles), and 4-foot navigation from Waitsboro Shoals to Burnside (4 miles). During low water, navigation between Lock No. 21 and West Point is Fº suspended, the depth of water on some of the shoals being ess than 1 foot. No work has been done on Locks and Dams Nos. 8 to 17, as the project was not adopted until very recently (Mar. 2, 1919). The commerce on the Cumberland River consists mainly of live stock and agricultural and forest products, moving to market, and miscel- laneous merchandise, fertilizer, etc., distributed to consumers along the river. The greater part of this commerce moves during the high- water season, usually between December and June, and, owing to the incomplete state of the improvement, little navigation is prac- ticable during the low-water season, the canalized reaches being too short or too isolated to develop any great volume of commerce. During the calendar year 1917 the total commerce carried on the Cumberland River below Nashville amounted to 131,325 tons, valued at about $1,719,564; and in the section above Nashville the total was 267,091 tons, valued at approximately $6,970,390. -- 1286 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1287 The amount of water traffic that will develop after the completion of the projects of canalization can only be conjectured. The im- portance of the water traffic developed will depend on its relative economy as against railroad service. This in turn will depend on two groups of factors, which may be termed natural or physical factors, or those having to do with the actual movement of goods, and artificial factors, such as laws and regulations, organization, traffic exchange agreements, railway rates, etc. Natural conditions on the Cumberland River will be, it is thought, exceptionally favorable for traffic, since such dangers to navigation as ice, waves, shoals, and high currents will be almost negligible at all times, and, so far as river conditions are concerned, vessels should be able to make regular schedules at all seasons after the projected improvements are completed. However, the river is subject to frequent and large fluctuations in stages, which makes the establish- ing of adequate terminal facilities difficult. - As to prospective future traffic, there is no heavy bulk traffic, such as coal or ore, originating on the banks of the Cumberland, and hence it is not probable that this river will become an important carrier for heavy bulk freight of this kind. It is thought that the additional traffic which is most likely to develop upon the comple- tion of the project is the trade in miscellaneous freight, manufac- tured articles, farm products, etc., between points along the Ohio, Mississippi, and other western rivers, and Nashville, Clarksville, Burnside, and other points along the Cumberland River. At present there are operating on the Cumberland River the fol- lowing types of river carriers: (1) Towboats.--These operate mostly below Nashville in towing barges loaded with ties and logs to Paducah, Ky., and other points. These are flat-bottom, stern-wheel steamboats of the type common on western rivers, and each boat usually tows four to six barges. (2) Packet boats.-These boats are also flat-bottom, stern-wheel steamboats of the type common to western rivers. They are usually provided with accommodations for a limited number of passengers, and carry also live stock, farm products, and miscellaneous freight. The tonnage of these boats ranges usually between 100 tons and 200 tons, although there are some gasoline packet boats of lesser tonnage. These boats ply out of Nashville, Tenn., and Burnside, Ky., usually maintaining uncertain and haphazard service. There are three sand and gravel outfits operating near Nashville. The points on the Cumberland River where terminal facilities are considered of sufficient importance to warrant consideration in this report are Nashville, Tenn., Clarksville, Tenn., and Burnside, Ky. Burnside, Ky. (226 miles above Nashville and 519 miles above mouth of river).-At Burnside there are located a free public landing, a modern freight incline with warehouse facilities owned by the Cumberland Grocery Co., a modern freight incline with warehouse owned by the Cincinnati, Burnside, & Cumberland River Railroad, with railroad connection to low water for handling traffic between river boats and railroad. The free public landing is a plot of ground purchased by the city of Burnside. It is located about one-half mile from the main part of town and about the same distance from the railroad and city freight depot. This landing is not approached by an improved street or 1288 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. road, neither has it any improvements or facilities of its own, by º of which it has not been used by steamboats or other river Craft. * The incline owned by the Cumberland Grocery Co. is leased by the Cumberland Transportation Co. and at present used exclusively by it. This incline is of less than carload capacity. There is a modern warehouse located at the head of the incline on a railroad siding which is used in connection therewith. The incline owned by the Cincinnati, Burnside & Cumberland River Railroad Co. is of less than carload canacity, and there is a warehouse at its head located on a railroad siding. This incline has not been used since December 27, 1917, when the Burnside & Burkes- ville Transportation Co. ceased operations. In connection with traffic handled through these warehouses and over the inclines, there is a published through rate of 2% cents per 100 pounds, and no additional charges are made for either warehouse or incline. The railroad sidings alongside the warehouse of the Cincin- nati, Burnside & Cumberland River Railroad Co. and the warehouse of the Cumberland Grocery Co. are owned and maintained by the Cincinnati, Burnside & Cumberland River Railroad Co. The river and rail siding owned and maintained by the Cincinnati, Burnside & Cumberland River Railroad Co. is for handling traffic in carload lots to and from Cumberland River landings and is only for the interchange of traffic between the boats of the Cumberland River Transportation Co. and the railroad. This traffic is all handled on published through or proportional rates, and there is no extra charge for incline, the siding being a part of the through rate. On business in carload lots originating in Burnside proper, destined to Cumber- land River landings, or vice versa, there is a charge made to the con- signee of 1 cent per 100 pounds, with a minimum charge of $4.60 per car. This applies to carload traffic only. There are through routes and joint rates in connection with the Cincinnati, Burnside & Cumberland River Railroad (operated by the Southern Railway) to and from all Cumberland River landings, Burnside, Ky., to Myers Landing, Tenn. (356 miles above the mouth of the river). Through bills of lading may be secured for any traffic destined to or from these landings. - Nashville, Tenn. (192.6 miles above mouth of river).—Existing terminal facilities at Nashville are a railroad incline located on left bank of the Cumberland River, belonging to the Tennessee Central Railroad; a railroad incline on the right bank of the Cumberland River, adjacent to the Woodland Street Bridge, owned by the Louis- ville & Nashville Railroad Co.; the River and Rail (or Ryman) Warehouse, connected with the Louisville & Nashville Railroad incline, owned by the Thomas Ryman estate; an unloading trestle on the right bank of the Cumberland River, near the Sparkman Street Bridge, owned and operated by W. T. Hardison & Co.; the upper Nashville Wharf, located at the foot of Broad Street, owned by the city of Nashville; and the lower Nashville Wharf, located at the foot of Jackson Street, also owned by the city of Nashville. The Tennessee Central Railroad incline is owned by the Nashville Terminals Co. It has no warehouse facilities in connection with it, and is used for the transfer of material from river to rail and vice versa. It is open to the public, and there is no charge for trackage. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1289 The Louisville & Nashville Railroad incline, on the right bank of the Cumberland River, is built on the property owned by the Thomas Ryman estate. The pronerty is now leased to C. D. Jones & Co., and the lessee acquired the rights of the Ryman estate in the use of this track. Capt. Thomas Ryman furnished the right of way and the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. furnished the material and labor for building the track and maintains it; but the public is per- mitted to use it on the payment of the following charges: One dollar er car for lumber, coal, and shells; and $2 per car for ordinary reight, such as grain in sacks. In certain instances the Louisville & Nashville Railroad is prepared to absorb the trackage charges assessed by C. D. Jones & Co. in connection with the incline, of which it is the lessee. The River and Rail Warehouse (or Ryman Warehouse) is immedi- ately adjacent to the above-mentioned incline. It is built of brick and has trackage facilities on each side; but on the river side it has an endless-chain belt (operated by a motor in the building) which extends down to the incline. The lower extremity of this chain belt is about 20 feet from the water's edge at pool-full stage, so that freight can readily be unloaded from either railroad or boat. This warehouse is owned by the Thomas Ryman estate and is leased by C. D. Jones & Co. It is strictly a private enterprise, and there is ordinarily no room available for public use. It is only in exceptional instances and in emergencies, when, as a matter of accommodation, the public is allowed to make use of the warehouse. In such instances the charges made on storage of freight are as follows: Freight, such as grain in sacks, 3% cents per sack, plus 30 cents per ton for 30 days. This includes all handling and storage charges. This warehouse is about 210 by 125 feet, and has storage capacity of about 5,000 tons. The unloading trestle, owned by W. T. Hardison & Co., Nashville, Tenn., is strictly a private enterprise. It is intended to handle sand and gravel only. Occasionally, however, it unloads coal, etc., for steamboats, but it does so as a matter of accommodation only. It is in no sense intended for the use of the public. This trestle has trackage connection with the Louisville & Nashville Railroad. * The lower city wharf at Nashville is not used. The upper Nash- ville wharf is available for public use, and steamboats, barges, and other river craft can make use of it at all times. It is immediately adjacent to the railroad track owned by the Nashville Terminals Co., which in turn connects with all rºl, entering the city. In addition to this it is approached by well-paved streets from three directions, on which are located electric street car lines. The wharf, which has a macadamized surface, is built on a slope of about 1 on 5 and has a graded road approach of 6 per cent. It extends from the paved streets at the top of the bank to low water. The following charges are made for the use of the wharf by the public: Each steam- boat, barge, keel boat, or raft of any kind or description, which pays ad valorem taxes to the city of Nashville, is required to pay $18 for each quarter, payable in advance. In all Cases where the ad valorem charges are not paid to the city of Nashville, the following wharfage charges are made for each landing: All steamboats 150 feet long and 29 feet wide and upward. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $6.50 All steamboats measuring 90 feet in length and 24 feet in width and upward. . 4. 50 All steamboats measuring less than 90 feet in length and 24 feet in width. . . . . 2.00 Each flat or keel boat laden with sand, rock, or gravel. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1. 00 1290 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES.

Where any of the steamboats mentioned hereinabove make more than one trip per week and land at the city wharf at each trip, a charge is made only for one trip at the foregoing rates.. It is believed that the facilities for handling and storing freight at Nashville are inadequate for existing traffic, particularly as regards the freight handled over the Nashville wharf. There are no ware- house facilities at this wharf for the storage of freight and no me- chanical appliances for loading or unloading freight to or from boats. It is thought that the Louisville & Nashville and the Tennessee Central Railroad inclines furnish fairly adequate facilities at present for freight transferred from river carriers to railroads, although should a great amount of such business be offered, mechanical appli- ances for handling freight would be economical. Clarksville, Tenn. (127 miles above mouth of river).-The only river terminal facilities at Clarksville are the city wharf, at Clarks- ville and a wharf boat. The wharf is incorporated under the name of Union Wharf Co., the principal stockholders of which are J. E. Elder and the city of Clarksville. The highway, or portion of wharf connecting the wharf boat with the streets of the city is in very bad condition and would have to be practically rebuilt to put it in good shape. The wharf boat is owned by E. P. Gracey & Bro., Clarksville, Tenn. It is open to the use of the general public— boats, individuals, and firms—all on the same terms. The following charges are made: Inbound freight, 2 cents per hundred pounds, collected from consignee; outbound freight, tonnage collected from boats, accepting shipments, charges vary, based on freight rate effective. - There are no arrangements between river and rail carriers whereby freight is transferred from river to rail, or vice versa, at Clarksville on through bills of lading, and no railway inclines or spur or belt lines connecting the wharf with any railroad. The wharf boat facilities are considered adequate until such time as conditions justify the building of modern elevator and terminal facilities at Clarksville. In order to make the wharf proper and communicating roads adequate for existing traffic, extensive repairs are necessary. As to general interest shown in improvement of terminal and transfer facilities, no particular interest has been shown, except in the case of Nashville. In the year 1917 the Legislature of the State of Tennessee, by an amendment to the Nashville charter, created a board of transportation trustees for the city. This board consisted of 21 prominent citizens named in the act. The board was authorized, among other things, to improve the city's river transportation facilities. To this end the board of transportation H. Doc. 652, 66-2, WHARF BOAT, CUMBERLAND RIVER, CLARKSVILLE, TENN. 1291 wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1291 trustees appointed a committee of five to look into the matter and to report recommendations. After investigations were made, this committee recommended building at the city wharf and Broad Street, a terminal and warehouse building, estimated to cost $300,000. A bond issue to cover the cost of the project has been approved by popular vote. - In deciding upon terminal and transfer facilities necessary for the Cumberland River, it is believed that wharves and landings should be considered in groups according to their relative importance, these groups to be about as follows: - Group I to include the cities of Nashville, Tenn., Burnside, Ky., and Clarksville, Tenn., since these cities are the shipping points of most importance along the river. Cities in this group, it is thought, should have terminal facilities about as follows: (a) Railroad inclines or spurs connecting the water's edge at the river with all railroads entering the city, so that freight may be handled directly between cars and barges. The river end of the spur or incline should be built on a sharp grade and nearly parallel to the river bank so that cars may be placed at elevations corresponding to the varying stages of the river. Photograph of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad incline at Nashville, Tenn., is submitted here with, illustrating this type of incline. In case there is coal in large quan- tity, or other heavy material, to be transferred, a pier derrick should be installed at the upper end of the incline. (b) These cities should have wharves over which general freight, stock, grain, tobacco, etc., can be easily handled. For the unloading of stock, a sloping bank, paved or macadamized, is believed sufficient. This landing should be located, if possible, in proximity to the stock- yards, nens, or stables. For general freight, the minimum require- ment should be a commodious warehouse at the top of the bank and above hich water, rrovided with one or more inclined tramways or vertical elevators for transferring freight between warehouse and river carriers. This warehouse should have both highway and belt- line railroad connection. The economy of freight handling devices other than the tramways or elevators referred to is doubted, although belt or endless-chain conveyor might in some cases be advantageous for handling grain in bags or certain classes of package freight. There is submitted herewith a plan entitled “Study of River Tock and Terminal,” believed to be suited in size and cost to present river traffic at Nashville, Tenn. There is also submitted a photo- grarh of a warehouse and terminal now at Burnside, Ky., believed to be a suitable type for that place; also for Clar sville, Tenn., and towns baving river traffic of similar importance. All of these facilities should be open to the use of the public on equal and reasonable terms. In Group II would be placed such towns as Carthage, Cumberland City, and Dover, Tenn., and Canton and Eddyville, Ky., and perhans some others; also landings along the river serving inland towns, vil- lages, or communities of importance. For places in this group, one of the following plans of improvement is suggested, the particular kind to be selected depending on local conditions: (a) Wharf boat in connection with a hard-surfaced road of suitable grade leading to the top of the bank and connecting with the main highway system. There is submitted herewith a photograph of the wharf boat at Clarksville, Tenn., as an example of a suitable wharf & 1292 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. boat. The size of the wharf boat would depend on the amount of traffic at the particular locality. The disadvantage of a wharf boat is the rapid deterioration of the hull and need for constant attention. (b) A hard-surfaced road leading from a public highway to low water, with two or more warehouses alongside. One of the ware- houses should be at such an elevation as to be readily accessible at low. and medium low river stages, and another at the top of the bank above high water. The lower warehouse to be constructed in such a manner as to stand when submerged. The sizes of these warehouses would vary with traffic conditions. (c) An inclined tramway leading from the water's edge to a ware- house above high water, the warehouse being served by improved highways connecting directly with the main highway system. A photograph of a landing at Burnside, Ky., showing such a tramway and warehouse, is herewith submitted. - All landings in Group II should be open to public use on equal and reasonable terms. In Group III would be placed all landings of minor importance, such as farm and individual landings and landings serving small communi- ties only. These landings should be cleared of trees and brush and a road of suitable grade built from the water's edge to top of bank. Landings in this group would not necessarily be open to public use or be connected with a public highway. Highways.—It is thought that public highways should be considered an important adjunct to landings in Groups I and II, and that no landing in these groups should be considered properly improved unless it has road connections and unless the roads serving the landings are reasonably direct and at least as well improved as the average roads in that locality. # WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER, FACII,ITIES.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. CHATTANOOGA, TENN, DISTRICT. COL. J. B. CAVANA UGH, ENGINEERS, IN CLIARGE. The only navigable streams in this district worthy of mention are the Tennessee River and its three most important tributaries, the French Broad, Clinch, and Hiwassee Rivers. TENNESSEE RIVER, Location and description.—The Tennessee River is formed by the junction of the French Broad and Holston Rivers, in eastern Ten- nessee, and empties into the Ohio River at Paducah, Ky. Very little commerce can pass the Muscle Shoals where the fall averages 3.57 feet per mile until radical improvements have been made. The river will be divided into the two general divisions above and below Muscle Shoals for discussion in this report, viz, Head to Browns Island, and Florence to the mouth. HEAD TO BROWNS ISLAND. Existing project.—Above Chattanooga: The existing project pro- vides for improving the 188-mile section of the river between the head and Chattanooga by the construction of a concrete lock and dam at the foot of Caney Creek Shoals to provide 6-foot navigation at extreme low water for a distance of 24.6 miles; and by rock excavation, dredging, and contraction works throughout the re- mainder of the section to secure a channel 150 feet wide and 3 feet deep at extreme low water. Chattanooga to Hales Bar: The existing project provides for the construction by the Chattanooga & Tennessee River Power Co. of a lock, dam, and power house at Hales Bar, the dam to give a pool 6 feet deep at low water up to Chattanooga (33 miles). Hales Bar to Browns Island: The existing project provide; for the construction of concrete locks with low dams at Widows Bar and Bellefonte Island, to provide 6-foot navigation at extreme low water from Bellefonte Island to Hales Bar lock (39.1 miles). The project also provides for open-channel work by dredging and by contraction works to obtain a channel 150 feet wide and 5 feet deep at extreme low water through all shoals in the 138 miles in the section between the head of Browns Island (293 miles above the mouth) and Hales Bar, except those in the reach to be canalized. Navigable condition.——The minimum depth available in the section above Chattanooga is about 1 foot at extreme low water. The river is navigable for 1-foot draft throughout the year, and usually navigable for 2-foot draft from December 15 to August 1, and for 3-foot draft from January 1 to June 1. Drafts of 4 feet and over are occasionally practicable for short disconnected periods during the 1299 1300 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. high-water months of January to April, inclusive. The minimum depth available in the section from Chattanooga to Browns Island is as follows: From Chattanooga to Hales Bar, a distance of 33 miles, the river is navigable for 6-foot draft throughout the year; and from Hales Bar to Browns Island, a distance of 138 miles, the river is navigable for 15-inch draft throughout the year, for 2-foot draft from December 15 to September 1, for 3-foot draft from January 1 to July 1, for 4-foot draft from January 1 to May 15. Drafts of 5 and 6 feet are occasionally practicable for disconnected periods of different lengths during the high-water months of January to April, inclusive. The Hales Bar lock has been placed in operation, but no other lock construction has been begun. Open-channel work has been completed at several shoals above Chattanooga, but the controlling depth in the section has been increased only about 6 inches. Between Hales Bar and Browns Island no work has been done under the existing project. Commerce.—Above Chattanooga: The total commerce for , the calendar year 1918 amounted to 529,299 short tons, valued at $2,801,202. Of the total commerce, 76 per cent was sand and gravel, 15 per cent iron ore, 4 per cent forest products, 3 per cent farm products, 1 per cent merchandise, and 1 per cent miscellaneous. This commerce (except about 2 per cent of the total, which was rafted) was carried by 19 steamers and gasoline boats, having an average net registered tonnage of 48, and 79 barges, having an average capacity of 57 tons. The boats used are flat-bottom stern-wheelers of the type common on western rivers. Chattanooga to Browns Island: The total commerce for the calendar year 1918, including the small amount passing through the Muscle Shoals section only, amounted to 140,728 short tons, valued at $14,563,084. Of the total commerce, 21 per cent was timber products, 2 per cent merchandise, 2 per cent sand and gravel, 17 per cent farm products, and 58 per cent miscellaneous. This commerce WaS ... by 13 steam and gasoline boats having an average net registered tonnage of 83, and 29 barges having an average capacity of about 113 tons. About 62 per cent of this tonnage represents freight transferred by the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Rail- road by train ferry between its terminals at Guntersville and Hobbs Island, a distance of 22 miles. The boats used on this section of the river are of the twpe used above Chattanooga. Terminals.—The principal existing terminals on the Tennessee River above Browns Island are as follows: There are wharves and Warehouses with endless-chain conveyors at Knoxville and Chatta- nooga, the facilities being publicly owned at Chattanooga and pri- vately owned but open to public use at Knoxville. There are four railway inclines at Chattanooga, two at Decatur, and one each at Bridgeport and Hobbs Island, which are open to the public, and one each at Concord, Lenoir City, and Richland Creek which are under- stood to be owned and used by private parties. There is an unim- proved landing at Decatur owned by the municipality. Other pri- vately owned and used facilities consist of one log incline, six derricks, and one locomotive crane at Knoxville; one railroad incline for transferring cars to and from barges each at Round Island and head of Caney Creek Shoals; one derrick each at Concord and Lenoir WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1301 City; three locomotive cranes, two log inclines, and two inclined tramways at Chattanooga; one log incline at Decatur; an inclined tramway at Kelleys Landing; and an incline for transferring rail- road cars to and from barges at Guntersville and Hobbs Island, the cars being ferried between these points. Public use of some of these facilities is frequently possible on payment of reasonable charges. There are many unimproved private landings, at some of which are sheds or small warehouses without regular attendants, where the Owners receive and care for freight at reasonable charges. At sev- eral of the more important landings, however, no warehouses have been provided. As a rule, the landings consist of the river banks with no improvements or facilities whatever, and freight is exposed to theft and to damage by mud and water. Such railway inclines as exist are, for the most part, unimproved in that neither ware- houses nor facilities for handling commerce are provided, except at Knoxville and Chattanooga. They consist merely of spur tracks extending into the river, from which commerce is transferred by hand from barges to cars and to some extent from cars to barges. Except at Chattanooga, there is no interchange of traffic between i. and rail, and no special interest in improved terminals has been SIl OWI). - - The section of country through which the Tennessee River flows be- tween Chattanooga and Browns Island (170 miles) is one which is not well supplied with railways; hence this section relies largely on water transportation. Between Bridgeport, Ala., and Browns Island (121 miles), the principal industry is farming, a large amount of cotton, as well as corn and other products, being raised. Owing to the fact that the river affords the nearest outlet for cotton, etc., planters along the river have established private landings and have in many instances built small warehouses for the storage of their products awaiting arrival of boats, which usually bring to such warehouses the needs, in the way of machinery, groceries, etc., of the vicinity. These facilities are in most cases open to the public use free of charge, provided such use does not interfere with the owner's traffic. The banks of the landings are steep and unimproved, and in wet weather and after the recession of high water stages are in such condition as to make their use impracticable. Over these banks such commerce as is handled must be by hand. The condition above described applies in general to practically all farm landings between Chatta- nooga and Decatur, and naturally tends to reduce river traffic to a minimum. For the traffic which exists under such conditions the facilities might be considered adequate and suitable, but for the com- merce that might be handled under more favorable conditions, the facilities are in nowise adequate or suitable. - Between the source of the Tennessee River and the head of Browns Island there are only three localities considered to be of commercial importance, viz, Knoxville, Tenn.; Chattanooga, Tenn.; and Decatur, Ala. Terminals of appropriate and suitable types and construction obtain at Knoxville and Chattanooga, the terminal facilities at Decatur being inadequate. None of the terminals on the reach of the river under consideration are deemed to be especially efficient. The details of the facilities at the three terminals above mentioned are as follows: - 1302 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. KNOXVILLE, TENN. Upper wharf.-The upper wharf, which is the principal facility for handling river commerce at Knoxville, is located on the right bank of the river near the main business section. It consists of a landing to which access is had by vehicles over an unpaved slope of bank. On the top of bank stands a frame warehouse into which grain, box goods, etc., are hoisted from incoming boats by means of a conveyor or endless chain arrangement and an elevator. Out- going commerce is not handled through the warehouse, but is loaded on boats direct from vehicles. The warehouse is connected with the Southern Railway by means of a belt line railway which passes along- side the rear of warehouse. All commodities are handled between warehouse and railway cars by hand. The belt line railway is owned by the Southern Railway, as is the warehouse and landing, which is leased by Davis & Susong. This belt railway is no more than an extensive switch or spur line of the Southern Railway. There is no interchange of through traffic between rail and water. It is understood that the landing is open for public use free of charge at such times as will not interfere with its use by boats owned by the Davis & Susong Co., and that the warehouse is open to public use upon the payment of a nominal fee, which is not definitely fixed, the charge depending largely on the character of the commerce handled, etc. This terminal facility is believed to be adequate for. existing commerce, and its arrangements are suitable for existing traffic conditions, except that the sloping bank should be paved in order that traffic might be handled thereon during wet periods. Rinz l-Thompson Sand dº Gravel Co.'s terminal.—This terminal is located on left bank of river, opposite the city of Knoxville, and consists of one steel derrick and one traveling locomotive crane, each equipped with a clamshell bucket for handling sand and gravel from barges to cars and storage bins. It is privately owned, being used exclusively by this company for handling their own materials. It is on a spur track of the Southern Railway and is connected with good highways. . It is believed to be adequate and suitable for exist– ing commerce. There is no interchange of traffic between the railroad and waterway at this point. $. CHATTANOOGA, TENN. Chattenooga wharf or terminal.—This terminal is located on left bank of river, near the business section of the city, and consists of a gradually sloping wharf about 425 feet long by 200 feet wide, about one-half of which is paved with cobble stones or Belgian blocks. The warehouse (at the top of the slope) is a brick building about 100 feet wide by 300 feet long, through which commerce is handled to and from river by means of an incline of the endless chain or belt conveyor type. Both warehouse and wharf are municipally owned, but are leased by the Chattanooga Packet Co., the Tennessee River Navigation Co. operating same. Both can be used by the public, provided sufficient space is available. For the use of the wharf the public must pay a wharfage fee of $5 if the commerce handled is transferred to or from vehicles, but in case warehouse is used, an additional fee is charged, the rate depending upon the nature of the water TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1303 commodity; for instance, a rate of 5 cents is charged for a bag of grain or package of freight of similar weight, and 25 cents for a bale of cotton. A belt line of the Southern Railway passes directly in front of the warehouse, and commerce is handled to and from ware- house and cars by hand and trucks. A through interchange of traffic is carried on between this company and the Southern Railway. This wharf is located upon the public highways of the city and is believed to be adequate and suitable for existing commerce. As evidence of public interest manifested at Chattanooga, reference is made to the fact that the facility just described is municipally owned, and that appropriations are available for extensive improvements contemplated in the near future. Bible Sand Co.'s terminal.—This consists of a traveling locomotive crane equipped with clam-shell bucket which travels from directly over the water's edge to spur track of a belt railway owned by the Southern Railway. This crane transfers gravel and sand from barges to railroad cars and storage bins, it later being loaded from bins into vehicles and transported for local use. While this facility is privately owned, it is open to the public to the extent that certain bulk com- merce, such as coal, will be handled upon payment of a nominal fee. It is located on the public highways of the city, is an excellent one, and is thought to be entirely suitable and adequate for existing COICAIOleI’Ce. DECATUR, AIA. Decatur wharf or terminal.—This wharf, which is municipally owned, is open to the use of the public free of charge. It is located on the left bank of the river and consists of an unpaved sloping bank or wharf where commerce is handled from waterway to bank by hand, whence it is transferred by vehicle to destination. There is no ware- house at this place, and no means of handling commerce, except by hand. It is believed to be inadequate and unsuitable for existing commerce. A belt line of the Southern Railway passes this locality at top of slope and runs parallel to the river, making it possible to transfer commerce to cars from river, or from river to cars; but this is very unsatisfactory, owing to the distance between the waterway and railway over which commerce must be handled. Two naviga- tion companies (Tennessee River Navigation Co. and Decatur Navi- ation Co.) have their terminals at this place. These companies interchange traffic, but there is no interchange of through traffic between either company and the railway. The North and South Highway, to New Orleans, La., Tallahassee, Fla., Decatur and Bir- mingham, Ala., crosses the river at the ferry, which is at the upper end of the wharf. In view of the lack of warehouse, or any facilities for unloading or loading freight, and of the poor condition of the bank slope, this terminal facility is inadequate for existing commerce. It is desired to state, in connection with above descriptions of ter- minal facilities, with especial reference to the upper wharf at Knoxville and the Chattanooga wharf, that, if navigation companies would run their boats regularly, providing small, light-draft boats for use during low-water seasons, the amount of river traffic would be largely in- creased, and existing terminal facilities would not be adequate or suitable. 1304 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. FI,ORENCE TO THE MOUTH. Existing project.—This provides for a lateral canal 8.07 miles long, 112 feet wide on the bottom, and 7 feet deep at extreme low water, with a lift lock at the lower end of the canal with a minimum depth of 6.25 feet on the miter sills. The lock is located 226.5 miles above the mouth of the river, near Riverton, Ala. The project also pro- vides for open-channel work in the remainder of the section below Florence, Ala., to obtain a channel 150 feet wide and 5 feet deep at extreme low water (6 feet deep at ordinary low water). Navigable condition.—The lift lock and canal have been completed. The open-channel work between the canal and Florence has been largely completed, and an extreme low-water depth of about 4% feet is now available in this reach. The dredging in the reach between Riverton and the mouth has increased the extreme low-water depth to about 3% feet. These improvements have made it possible for the principal boats to operate throughout the year with full cargoes, except in years of extreme low water, when the tonnage between September 1 and December 1 must be reduced. Commerce.—The amount of commerce carried on this section of the river, disregarding sand and gravel, is larger than that carried on either of the other natural divisions of the river, and the average length of haul, or number of ton-miles, is much greater. The freight shipped out of the territory adjacent to the river consists principally of agricultural and forest products, while the incoming traffic con- sists of supplies for the farmers, timber industries, and country stores. The territory adjacent to the river, though fertile, is thinly settled, probably because of lack of railroads, improved highways, and the unsatisfactory service offered by the river transportation. By far the greater part of the commerce handled consists of timber products. The total commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 280,602 short tons, valued at $5,783,318. This tonnage was divided as fol- lows: Forest products boated, 213,409 tons; forest. products rafted, 41,361 tons; farm products 13,781 tons; merchandise, 4,244 tons; miscellaneous, including principally fertilizer, flour, salt, mussel shells, and iron, 7,857 tons. É? the total forest products, 236,559 tons con- sisted of railroad ties. In general, the farm products, merchandise, and miscellaneous articles are handled by packet boats without the use of barges, and the boated forest products, iron, and other bulky articles are transported on barges by towboats; but a considerable amount of forest products is also handled by the packet boats at times when sufficient freight better adapted to their facilities for handling is not available. Terminals.—There are about 40 terminals and landings below Florence that may be considered of importance. The principal exist- ing terminal facilities consist of two railroad inclines extending to near the low water mark, a privately owned wharfboat with superin- tendent, and a municipally owned paved wharf with wharfmaster in charge, at Paducah, Ky.; a reinforced concrete warehouse with super- intendent, with railway connection and with two vertical elevators, and a railroad incline owned by the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. at Danville, Tenn.; a frame warehouse with superintendent, with railway connection and with vertical lift elevators, owned by the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railroad Co., at Johnsonville, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1305 Tenn.; a privately owned wharfboat with superintendent, at Clifton, Tenn.; a warehouse connected with Southern Railway tracks and with double-track tram car incline extending to low water, at Riverton, Ala., owned by the Southern Railway Co., and controlled by the sta- tion agent; and a railroad incline extending to low water at Sheffield, Ala., owned by the Southern Railway Co. - It appears that the warehouses and their mechanical appliances at Dji. Johnsonville, and Riverton are open only to the St. Louis & Tennessee River Packet Co., which is the only packet boat line of im- portance operating on this section of the river. The other facilities mentioned above are reported to be open to all boats on fair and equal terms. Suitable privately owned warehouses with regular attend- ants, but without mechanical appliances, are provided at a number of other important landings, and these are generally open to public use on payment of reasonable fees. At several important landings, however, no warehouses have been provided, or those available are not kept in repair, nor are attendants provided, and freight is exposed to theft and damage by the elements. Practically no improvements to banks in the way of grading or paving have been made, except at Padu- cah. . The present practice of requiring deckhands to carry freight up and down the banks is very expensive, and as the banks are often in an extremely bad condition on account of mud, none but a poor class of labor can be obtained, and freight is often damaged. The roads approaching terminals, as well as the main roads, are nearly all com- mon country roads that are generally in bad condition during the winter months. Sufficient depth of water is not available at a number of the landings, and this causes considerable inconvenience. There are about 280 unimportant landings where the amount of business done is not sufficient to warrant any improvement, and were it not for lack of suitable roads, the existence of the most of them could not be justified. A number of these landings, however, are equipped with small warehouses or sheds. Each farmer along the river maintains one or more landings for his own private use, and the majority of the unimportant landings are of this class. The facilities at Paducah, Danville, Johnsonville, Clifton, and at Riverton are fairly satisfactory. The St. Louis & Tennessee River Packet Co. interchanges freight on through bills of lading with the railroads at all of these places except Clifton. In general, the ter- minal facilities on the lower Tennessee are very unsatisfactory for existing commerce. The amount of this commerce, however, is not sufficient to justify material improvements. The poor condition of terminals is believed to have a materially deterrent influence on shippers who might find river transportation advantageous under better conditions. The landings at Florence, Ala., Hamburg, Tenn., Pittsburg Land- ing, Tenn., Perryville, Tenn., and Paducah, Ky., are publicly owned. All others, as far as known, belong to private parties. All existing facilities, such as warehouses, wharf boats, tramways, inclines, etc., are privately owned. Terminal facilities, such as are required on the Tennessee River, can be more cheaply operated by private parties in connection with other private business, and this is believed to be the most practicable method of operation, as it is doubtful if the existing commerce will justify the more expensive public operation, except at the large towns. If privately owned, they should be operated under 1306 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. such regulations as will enforce good service and reasonable terms to all. Little interest in the improvement of terminals on the lower Ten- nessee has been shown in recent years. The president of the St. Louis & Tennessee River Packet Co. states that he doubts the advisability and economy of installing mechanical freight-handling facilities on the lower Tennessee. He states, however, that good roads and good warehouses are needed. The greatest need, in his opinion, is a law requiring railroads to charge the same ton-mile freight rate to river towns as to inland towns. An attempt was made during the calendar year 1917 to use the river for the transportation of pig iron from Florence and Sheffield, Ala., to and beyond the mouth of the river, and a considerable tonnage was carried. This business was abandoned, however, the boat line doing the towing giving as the reasons the labor situation at Sheffield due to the construction of the nitrate plants at that i. the failure to secure increased freight rates when costs of andling increased, and the fixing of prices on iron. The present large number of landings necessitates frequent stops by the boats to handle small quantities of freight, and the resulting Small average tonnage handled by each landing has probably pre- vented any greater improvements being made. It is difficult, how- ever, to reduce the number of landings, because of the lack of a suitable system of roads, few roads parallel to the river being available, and such as exist being in nearly all cases ordinary country roads that are generally in poor condition during the winter months, when they are needed most, on account of the higher river stages and better navigable conditions prevailing. In order to warrant the establish- ment of improved terminals, a suitable system of improved roads must be provided, and the river business must be concentrated at Such landings as are properly located with respect to centers of com- merce. When this is done it is believed that inexpensive ware- houses with simple mechanical freight handling devices, such as inclined tramways, will be warranted at about 40 of the more impor- tant landings. It is believed that present conditions warrant the erection of a derrick at the river-front tracks of the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railroad at Paducah, and at the railroad inclines at Dan- ville, Tenn., and Sheffield, Ala. A railroad incline with derrick should be provided at Riverton, Ala., Perryville, Tenn., and Johnsonville, Tenn. Warehouses with inclined tramways extending to low water should be constructed at Florence, Ala., Sheffield, Ala., and Perry- ville, Tenn. Banks should be graded at Florence and Sheffield, and the harbors should be dredged to 5-foot depth at low water at Perry- ville, Riverton, and Sheffield, the latter place requiring rock excavation. The only terminal on the lower Tennessee worthy of special mention is Paducah, Ky. The facilities at this place include a paved wharf, wharf boat, two railroad inclines extending to low water, a coaling station, and marine ways for repair and construction of boats. The wharf is located adjacent to the business section of Paducah, near the mouth of the Tennessee River, and adjoins the paved city streets. The bank is paved with cobble stones for a length of about 700 feet on a moderate slope, and makes a very satisfactory landing place. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1307 The harbor is about 8 feet deep at low water. The wharf is owned by the city of Paducah and is controlled by a wharfmaster. The city makes annual wharfage charges to boats making Paducah their terminus, as follows: Boats of 100 tons or less, $40; over 100 tons to 500 tons, $75; 500 tons and over, $100. Other boats are charged daily rates as follows: 100 feet long or less, $1; over 100 feet to 125 feet long, $1.25; over 125 feet to 175 feet long, $2; over 175 feet to 250 feet long, $2.50; over 250 feet long, $4. Charge to wharf boat is $250 per year. The wharf boat is located near the center of the paved wharf, over which the paved city streets are reached. The boat is of timber con- struction, 250 feet long, 50 feet wide, and 6 feet deep, and has a capacity of about 1,000 tons. It is old, but still gives good service. Freight is handled between the wharf boat and the city and railroad depots by wagons and trucks, wagon bridges connecting the boat with the wharf being provided at each end of boat. Packet boats land alongside the wharf boat and freight is transferred between them by hand trucks and by hand, no mechanical appliances being provided. The present owners purchased this boat in 1904 at a cost of $30,000, but estimate that at least $100,000 would be required to build such a boat at the present time. It is owned by the Paducah Wharfboat Co., the majority of the stock being owned by the shareholders of the St. Louis & Tennessee River Packet Co. The latter company pays $60 per month for use of the boat. A charge of 50 cents per ton is made against other boat lines on freight received by the wharf- boat for Paducah consignees. There is no charge against these boat lines for freight passing across wharf boat directly on to boats. The St. Louis & Tennessee River Packet Co. interchanges less than car load freight on through bills of lading by hauling in wagons to depots. The whart boat makes a very satisfactory terminal. The coaling station consists of a wooden hull derrick boat, with clamshell bucket, owned by the West Kentucky Coal Co. and used for placing coal on railroad cars, on tram cars for hauling to storage bins, and on boats. The derrick boat contains an elevated bin into which coal is dumped from clamshell and transferred to boats by means of a chute. Boats are also loaded directly with the clam- shell. The coal is brought to Paducah in barges. The equipment is used only by the owner in delivering coal. Photographs of the wharf boat at Paducah," elevators at Danville and Johnsonville, inclined tramway at Riverton," and facilities at Chattanooga wharf, are submitted as satisfactory types of terminal facilities for the Tennessee River. FRENCH BROAD AND LITTLE PIGEON RIVERS, TENN. Location and description.—The French Broad River is formed by the junction of its north and west forks, about 15 miles above Bre- . vard, N. C., and about 204 miles above the mouth, and unites with the Holston River to form the Tennessee, about 4% miles above Knoxville, Tenn. The Little Pigeon River is formed by the junction of its east and south forks at Sevierville, Tenn., and flows into the French Broad about 28% miles above its mouth. 1 Not printed. 1308 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Navigable condition.—Steamboat navigation is possible from the mouth to Leadvale, Tenn., 69% miles, but boats rarely go above Dand- ridge, Tenn., 46% miles above the mouth. A 2-foot draft below Dandridge, and an 18-inch draft up to Leadvale are possible when the Dandridge gage reads 1 foot, or, in years of average river flow, from December 1 to September 1. - Eristing project.—This provides for securing by dredging, by con- traction works, and by the removal of surface obstructions, a channel 24 feet deep during the low-water season from Leadvale to the mouth (693 miles), and for the removal of the bar at the mouth of the Little Pigeon River. The proposed width of boat channel was not speci- fied in the project, but plans for improvements in recent years have contemplated securing a width of from about 65 to 90 feet. The extreme fluctuation in the stage of the French Broad varies from about 27.5 feet at Leadvale to about 45 feet at the mouth, being about 30 feet at the mouth of the Little Pigeon. - Commerce.—The total commerce for the calendar year 1918 amounted to 4,231 short tons, valued at $230,644, of which 76 per cent was grain, 7 per cent hay, 11 per cent forest products, 4 per cent merchandise, and 2 per cent live stock. This commerce was carried by one 22-ton steamer of the type used on the upper Tennessee and four barges of an average tonnage of 40. - Terminals.-On this river there are no localities of commercial im– portance, neither are there any efficient terminals. The only ter- minal of average importance is Dandridge Landing, located on right bank of river about 47 miles above mouth. It consists of an ordinary landing, privately owned, open for use of public free of charge. There is no warehouse, and there are no facilities for handling com- merce to and from the river at this landing; hence, all commerce must be handled by hand. Good roads permit commerce to be handled to and from landing by means of vehicles. Some improvement com- mensurate with the existing commerce should be made in view of the fact that this section of country has no railroad facilities and is largely dependent on river transportation. CLINCH RIVER, TENN. AND WA. Location and description.—The Clinch River is formed by the junc- tion of its north and south forks in Tazewell County, Va., and flows into the Tennessee River, 1034 miles above Chattanooga. Navigable condition.—A draft of 12 inches up to Clinton is practi- cally certain from January 15 to May 15, and usually possible from . January 1 to June 1. A draft of 2 feet is usually possible from February 1 to April 10. Navigation in any of these periods, however, is liable to interruption. Eristing project.—The project provides for channel , excavation, removal of surface obstructions, and the construction of wing dams and training walls, to secure a navigable channel 2 feet deep at ordinary low water from the mouth to Clinton (about 60 miles) and i feet deep from Clinton to Walkers Ferry (Haynes) (about 66 miles). Commerce.—The commerce for the calendar year 1918 consisted of 8,376 short tons of logs and railroad ties, valued at $83,760, all of which was rafted. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1309 Terminal facilities.—There are no localities on the Clinch River of commercial importance, neither are there any especially efficient terminals, nor terminals of appropriate and suitable types and construction. There is given below description of the only terminal of average importance on this river. - - Kingston, Tenn., upper wharf.-This terminal is located on the left bank, about 1% miles above mouth of river. It includes an unpaved sloping bank and a privately owned warehouse at top of bank, from which good highways lead to the town of Kingston and thence to other highways of this section. There are no modern means of handling freight to and from warehouse or river; hence this work must be done by hand. The landing is open to the public free of charge, but a nominal fee, depending on the character of the com- modity, is charged for use of warehouse. The facility is not suitable nor adequate for existing commerce, as this immediate section is devoid of railway facilities and is largely dependent on river transpor- tation. While Kingston is located on the Clinch River, about 1% miles from the mouth, where it empties into the Tennessee River, this terminal serves only as a transfer station where the Knoxville boats and the Chattanooga boats of the Tennessee River exchange freight. In other words, this locality, although on the Clinch River, might properly be termed a Tennessee River port, inasmuch as little or no river commerce is handled above Kingston, and such boats as reach Kingston are engaged in Tennessee River traffic. HIWASSEE RIVER, TENN. Location and description.—The Hiwassee River flows into the Tennessee River 36% miles above Chattanooga. Navigable condition.—Drafts of 2 feet below Charleston and 1 foot up to Savannah Ford are possible at low water, and therefore through- out the year. - Existing project.—This provides for the improvement of the 35 miles of the river between its mouth and the mouth of the Ocoee by the use of spur dikes, training walls, and submerged sills, and by bank protection and dredging. The depth proposed is 3 feet in the boat channel at ordinary low water, with a mean of 2% feet through the entire width of navigable channel. - Commerce.—The only commerce reported for the calendar year 1918 was 635 tons of corn, valued at $31,750. This was handled by one 6-ton boat and one 18-ton barge. - Terminal facilities.—On this river there are no localities of com- mercial importance. The only terminal of average importance is at Charleston, which is located on the left bank of the river, about 19 miles above the mouth. It consists of an unimproved river bank, with a privately owned shed on top of bank. The landing and shed are open to the public upon payment of a small fee. The Southern Railway serves this town and section, but there is no connection between this railway and the river. Good roads connect this wharf with highways of the vicinity. The facilities are considered inade- quate for existing traffic. : WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER, FACILITIES. FRENCH BROAD RIVER, TENN. DANDRIDGE, TENN.

WATT, IN CHARGE. LAMBS FERRY, ALA. The improvement of navigation now being commenced by the construction of Dam No. 2, Muscle Shoals, will, when the shoals have been slack-watered alter conditions of terminal facilities at both Lambs Ferry and Florence. At Lambs Ferry no new terminal construction is contemplated until after the completion of the entire project. This ferry is an important crossing of the Tennessee River on the main wagon road from Florence to Decatur, accommodating small shipments in the way of local products going up the river. The adjoining counties contemplate the rebuilding of connecting roads and building substantial free wharves and warehouses for the public use, when the dams have been completed. The approach to the river on the right bank is fairly good and abundance of space is available to take care of future developments. No effort is being made to improve present facilities, as they are sufficient. FLORENCE, ALA. At Florence there is considerable effort being made to utilize the present navigation facilities. The terminal site lies immediately below the Louisville & Nashville Railroad bridge, which is also a bridge for wagons and for the interurban trolley line connecting the cities of Florence, Sheffield, and Tuscumbia. The present terminal is crude, without coaling or railroad facilities; the warehouse is free; there is no port officer and very little shipping is done, but the com- munity is exerting efforts to develop the facilities. The Jackson Highway, which passes through the city of Florence, is being graded and widened to the bridge, and on to the terminal point, where con- crete wharves and warehouses with all facilities are contemplated, including a spur line from the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, and urban line connections. The community is reaching out for river business, and the Chamber of Commerce has committees at work on different phases of the contemplated improvement, the chief of which is the establishment of a packet line to ply from Florence down the river. Other committees have in hand the development of shipping from country points between Florence and Clifton, Tenn. nearly a hundred miles below Florence, and the improvement of highways to lesser terminal points along the river between Clifton, Tenn., and Decatur, Ala. 1335 ; WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSIFIER, IFACILITIES.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT. COL. H. W. STICKLE, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. N/ The Pittsburgh engineer district includes the following harbor and waterways: I. Harbor at Pittsburgh, Pa. II. Monongahela River, Pa. and W. Va. III. Allegheny River, Pa. IV. Ohio River above Steubenville, Ohio. V. Youghiogheny River, Pa. (1) HARBOR AT PITTSBURGH, PA. The harbor extends from Davis Island Dam on the Ohio to the head of the river at Pittsburgh, a distance of 4.7 miles; up the Alle- gheny River 7 miles to Aspinwall; and up the Monongahela River to McKeesport, a distance of 15.5 miles, making the total length of the harbor 27.2 miles. The portion of the harbor which is most used, known as the lower harbor, lies between Davis Island Dam and Dam No. 1 on the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers. The project provides for the improvement of the harbor to secure by dredging a channel 500 feet wide and 10 feet deep below level of Pool No. 1, Ohio River, on Monongahela River for 4,000 feet above mouth, on Allegheny River near mouth, and on Ohio River at Saw- mill Run, 2 miles below head, marking harbor lines, etc. The main navigation facilities throughout the Pittsburgh Harbor are provided by Locks and Dams No. 1, Allegheny; Nos. 1 and 2, Monongahela; and No. 1, Ohio Rivers. On the Allegheny River from a point near the mouth to Aspinwall the project provides for a least slack-water depth of 7 feet. On the Monongahela River to McKeesport the project provides a least slack-water depth of 8 feet. The harbor has an increasing annual commerce of about 15,000,000 tons, which is moved in the harbor an average distance of 16.9 miles and which has an average valuation of slightly more than $4 per ton. The principal commodities transported are coal, sand, and gravel, these three items forming over nine-tenths of the total tonnage. The com- merce is moved in barges and flats varying in size from 200 by 26 feet to 16 by 50 feet, the larger vessels being constructed of steel and the smaller ones of wood. (II) MONONGAHELA RIVER, PA. AND W. V.A. The Monongahela River is formed by the junction of the Tygarts Valley and W. Fork Rivers about 1 mile south of Fairmo, t, W. Va., and flows in a northerly direction 128 miles to its mouth at Pittsburgh, Pa. The width of the stream varies from 420 feet at its head to 900 feet at Pittsburgh, and the navigation depth from 5 feet to 9 feet. 1337 1338 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The existing project provides for improvement of the river by 15 locks and dams, affording slack-water navigation from Pittsburgh, Pa., to 4 miles above Fairmont, W. Va., a distance of 130 miles. The commerce consists principally of coal, sand, and gravel, together with iron and steel products, which in 1918 amounted to about 16,500,000 tons and had an average valuation of about $4 per ton. A comparative statement of the total commerce for the year 1918 is given below: Per Cent, Coal------------------------------------------------------------------------ 78. 0 Coke----------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.

The Allegheny River joins the Monongahela at Pittsburgh, Pa., to form the Ohio River. Its total length is 325 miles. Navigation on the upper reaches of the river is confined to rafts and small pleasure craft. The lower reach is slack-watered for 24 miles above Pitts- burgh by means of three locks and dams. The project provides for improvement of the open channel from the mouth to the New York State line, 214 miles, and for canalization of the river for 61 miles by construction of locks and dams, establishing a least slack-water depth of 7 feet. The commerce on the river consists of coal, iron, and steel products, sand and gravel, gasoline, and general merchandise, which in 1918 amounted to about 2,500,000 tons and had an average valuation of about $2.33% per ton.

(IV) OHIO RIVER ABOVE STEUBENVILLE, OHIO. The Ohio River is formed by the junction of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at Pittsburgh, Pa. The Pittsburgh district includes the upper reach of the river from Pittsburgh to Steuben- ville, a distance of 65.7 miles, and is improved by 10 locks and dams, | hºg single-lock chambers each 110 by 600 feet, giving a depth Of 9 feet. The commerce on the river consists of coal from the Monongahela River, sand and gravel from the upper pools of the Ohio, together with miscellaneous freight, and in 1918 on the reach in the Pittsburgh district amounted to 4,571,935 tons; average valuation per ton, $3.75.

These boats operate on a schedule affording accommodations two days per week to Parkersburg and one day per week to Cincinnati. 1340 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Shipment is made on uniform bill of lading, and the company has published a local freight tariff giving class and commodity rates be- tween Pittsburgh, Pa., and Ohio River points as far as Louisville, Ey. The tariff rates are governed, except as otherwise provided, by ratings, rules, and regulations of the official classifications, R. N. Collyer's, Interstate Commerce Commission official classification No. 44, supplements thereto and reissues thereof. The company's traffic manager states that the tariff rates were originally the same as exist- ing rail rates, but since April, 1919, a reduction of 15 per cent from rail rates has been in effect. (v) YouGHIOGHENY RIVER, PA. The Youghiogheny River empties into the Monongahela River at McKeesport, Pa. it is unimproved throughout its length. With the exception of about 5 miles from the mouth the river is not navigable. The existing project provides for the canalization of the river from its mouth to West Newton, Pa., 19.5 miles, by the construction of three locks and dams. Recommendation for legislative authority for the abandonment of the existing project has been presented to Con- gress (H. Doc. No. 1284, 64th Cong., 1st sess.). Commerce on the river is confined to the first 4 or 5 miles of the river from the mouth, where slack water is maintained by Dam No. 2 in the Monongahela River, and consists of coal for fuel for the water- pumping plant of the city of McKeesport, Pa., the McKeesport Tin Plate Works, the McKeesport ce Pſant, and one coal, sand, and gravel supply company near the mouth. This commerce in 1918 amounted to about 383,000 tons. The same type of vessels as used on the Monongahela operates on this river. - TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. (I) MONONGAHELA RIVER, The terminals and transfer facilities consist largely of coal tipples, hoists of industrial plants, hoists handling sand and gravel from the river for rail and vehicular delivery to the consumer. in addition to the large tonnage in the above-mentioned commodities, there is a well-established business in other lines, among which are the following: The American Steel & Wire Co., a subsidiary of the United States Steel Corporation, has at two of its Monongahela River plants facili- ties for the unloading of steel billets brought in barges from its fur- naces on the Allegheny River, a river haul in barges of about 2 miles on the Allegheny and from 10 to 30 miles on the Monongahela. This same company has installed facilities for transfer by river on a large scale of spent acid between its plants at Braddock and Donora, Pa., a distance of 27 miles. For the safe and economical transfer of this acid by river, special barges, with a capacity of about 400 tons, equipped with wooden tanks, have been constructed. Another concern ships annually about 5,000 tons of coal tar from lassport to Pitts- burgh, Pa. The transfer facilities consist principally of stiff-leg der- ricks, McMyler or Brown hoists, bucket conveyors, and gantry cranes. At the principal towns and cities there are graded wharves, viz, Pittsburgh, Homestead, McKeesport, Monongahela City, Webster, Charleroi, Belle Vernon, Fayette City, Rices Landing, Point Marion, Pa., Morgantown and Fairmont, W. Va. H. Doc. 552, 65–2. |-|（…） -（~~~~ co AL UNLOADING AND CONVEYING BRIDGE, PITTSBURGH, PA. 1340–1 : H.

Photographs of the niore important of the above-described, terminals accompany this report. Under date of October 17, 1904, the Pittsburgh Terminal Ware- house & Transfer Co. was granted a permit to construct a wall and dredge in front of the wall, Pittsburgh, Pa., on the left bank of the Monongahela River between Third and Fourth Streets. In connec- tion with this improvement there was constructed a complete terminal warehouse covering an area of about 4 acres. Facilities are provided for receiving, storing, and distributing in cars or less-than-carload lots of all kinds of merchandise. Connection is had with three rail- road trunk lines. Railroad cars are loaded and unloaded, bills of lading issued, etc., all under the same roof. At the time the terminal was built, in the spring of 1906, provision was made for an extension when the business would warrant the construction of a new building. About 1 acre of ground on the river front is available and will afford ample room for a terminal which will have both river and rail connection. (II) ALLEGHENY RIVER, PA. Terminal and transfer facilities on the Allegheny River have been greatly improved and extended in and beyond the limits of the Pittsburgh Harbor during the past few years.

The Atlantic Refining Co. at its plant at Fifty-seventh Street, Pittsburgh, Pa., 5 miles above the mouth of the river, has installed a novel arrangement for handling gasoline which is transferred by river from Sistersville, W. Va., a haul of 137 miles on the Ohio and 5 miles on the Allegheny River. For the transfer, special steel tanks, each of the capacity of 10,000 gallons, mounted on barges, were constructed. Shipping was commenced in 1916 and is being con- tinued with resºlts satisfactory to the shipper, about 4,000,000 gal- lons having been shipped in 1918. The United States Aluminum Co., at its New Kensington works, 19 miles above the mouth of the river, has installed a coal conveyor for the transfer of coal from barges to the bins on the banks of the river, which is understood to give satisfactory results. This company 1342 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. also recently commenced the loading of coal to river barges at its tipple in Pool 3, 22 miles above the mouth, placed in operation ay, 1919. . As on the Monongahela, terminals on this stream are designed fo the economical transfer of coal, sand, and gravel and gasoline from river, barges, and the transfer to barges of billets and 6ther iron and steel products. The facilities, except for the handling of miscella- neous freight, are believed adequate. Photographs of the more important of the above-described termi- nals accompany this report. (III) OHIO RIVER ABOVE STEUBENVILLE, OHIO. The terminal facilities are to a large degree similar to those on the Monongahela and Allegheny Rivers, viz, stiff-leg derricks, McMyler hoists, and gantry cranes, and are operated by steam and electric power. A specially designed hoist of double ladder bucket type has been in operation by the Jones & Laughlin Steel Co. at its ºppº plant since 1910. This hoist has a capacity of 10,000 tons ally. - © Except for the handling of miscellaneous freight the facilities on the Ohio River are believed adequate. Photographs of the more important of above described terminals, accompany this report. .* (IV) YOUGHIOGHENY RIVER, On the lower reach of the Youghiogheny there are a number of terminals consisting of derrick hoists, locomotive cranes, etc., including one of the most important terminals of the district, viz, that of the McKeesport Tin Plate Co. at its extensive plant, Port Vue, Pa., 1.3 miles above the mouth of the river. In building this terminal a wall 2,600 feet in length, with a river face nearly vertical, was constructed and upward of 220,000 cubic yards of material dredged to form a harbor in front of the terminal wall and from the channel between the plant and the mouth of the river. The terminals are modern and well adapted to the handling of river COIn IſlerCe. ... • PUBLIC OWNERSHIP OR CONTROL OF WATER FRONT OTHER THAN THAT AT PITTSBURGH, PA. Monongahela River.—The principal towns, Homestead, Braddock, Donora, McKeesport, Elizabeth, Monongahela City, Fayette City, Greensboro, Point Marion, Pa., and Morgantown and Fairmont, W. Va., have limited paved wharf areas. It is understood that for occasional landing of boats or packets no landing charges are made. Allegheny River.—On the lower reach of the river, Verona, Oak- mont, Tarentum, and Kittanning have partially paved wharf areas, which are used to a limited extent for boat landings. Except at Pittsburgh, where the city has a wharfage rental of $1 per linear foot per year and a $2 per day landing charge, there are no established terminal charges. : H. Doc. 652, 66-2, COAL UNLOADING ELEVATOR AND CONVEYOR, PITTSBURGH, PA. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1343 Ohio River, between Pittsburgh and Dam No. 10.—The cities of Freedom and Rochester, Pa., and East Liverpool, Ohio, have a fairly liberal river frontage, each wharf having improved roads with a reasonable grade leading to the town or city highways. There are two wharf boats, one at Rochester and another at East Liverpool, both privately owned. Generally no landing charges are made at any of the cities or towns below Pittsburgh. PUBLIC OWNERSHIP OR CONTROL OF WATER FRONT AT PITTSBURGH, PA. The city of Pittsburgh owns 6.5 miles of the 54.4 miles of harbor frontage, or about 8 per cent of the total river frontage of the Pitts- burgh Harbor. This frontage includes some of the most valuable land in the city, with an area between the street and to about the lower harbor line of about 130 acres. With the exception of a single wharf boat, which has been in service at the Monongahela wharf 20 ears, there is no general terminal for merchandise. This wharf boat is of the usual type, with two gangways, one at either end, for ingress and egress of vehicles. On the Allegheny River wharf at Eighth Street, three-fourths mile above the mouth, the city owns a coal hoist, now leased to a local coal company. Other than these the great city of Pittsburgh, with a population of 650,000, has no facilities for the storing, handling, or distribution of water-borne commerce. In 1912 the city improved by grading and paving roadways leading to and from the Monongahela Wharf, at a cost of about $22,000. This step was taken at the instance of the merchants and others interested in the river trade, and so far as the facilities for reaching the wharf boat were concerned the improvement was satisfactory. There are no established terminal charges other than the wharfage rental of $1 per linear foot per year of river front and a $2 per day mooring charge. On the Monongahela Wharf a space of 500 feet in º is reserved for transient trade, boats being permitted to land without charge for not longer than 24 hours. EXISTING RAIL-AND-WATER CONNECTIONS. All principal terminals in the Pittsburgh Harbor, Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio Rivers, have rail connection and in most instances are built and operated under agreement with the different railroads, there being no contract between water carrier and railroads for interchange of traffic. The physical connection between water terminals and railroads is adequate, but in all cases specially designed for the individual or concern and not open to public use except under special agreement with the owner of a terminal to transfer materials from rail to river or vice versa. DESIRABLE IRAIL AND RIVER CONNECTION. In the absence of municipally owned joint rail-and-water terminals in the Pittsburgh district it is apparent that if the community is to receive the full benefit of the improved reaches of the rivers, each locality should install a river terminal, preferably a combined rail- and-water connection. It is believed that such a terminal should be constructed at cities and all towns of considerable size, and if such 1344 waTER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. water front with suitable connection to streets, highways, and rail- roads is not available, steps should be taken as speedily as may be possible to acquire land for this purpose. Along the rivers outside of the . the practice has been for the municipalities to vacate streets leading to the river in the interests of the railroads and manufacturing plants. In one case, the borough of Donora, population of about 10,000, situated on the Monongahela River with a river frontage of 1% miles, has only one place where there is access to the river, this being an unimproved road on which there is little, if any, business handled. - In other places there has been only one opening left, which is usually at right angles to the river, and for this reason has an almost prohibitive grade for vehicular traffic. Thus the po sibility of building up a trade in merchandise on the rivers of the district is met with so many obstacles that boats now in the business have little support from the merchants. #. order to meet the needs of the public it is believed important that each terminal be on the following lines: (a) That it be under absolute municipal control. (b) That it have, where at all practicable, rail connection together with a belt-line connection with all rail lines in the locality and the principal industrial concerns. (c) That it provide sufficient warehouse and storage capacity. (d) That it have suitable mechanical appliances for transfer of freight such as telpherage, cranes, electric-power elevators, etc. TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES, WATER TERMINAL, PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT. Two drawings, sheets 1 and 2, are submitted of terminals believed by the district engineer to be suited to conditions in the Pittsburgh engineer district. Details are left for future study, and the drawings are submitted merely as suggestions for facilities for handling mis- cellaneous river freight should it develop to such an extent as to warrant the construction of such structures. The terminal, sheet 1, is proposed for towns or cities where a large amount of freight would be received, shipped, or transferred, and is shown with a concrete wall at or near the shore line at pool full, with floor level at about flood stage height, so that the first floor of the terminal would be about on a level with the adjacent streets. The building as indicated is 300 feet long by 150 feet wide, two stories high, with four elevators capable of lowering trucks to the level of the boat deck for direct loading or loading on the elevator for storage on either the first or second floors. The concrete wall might be omitted and concrete incased steel construction be used, both as a support for the building and for the building proper, including the roadways to the street level. Two lines of railroad track are run completely through the center of the building, so that the car floor is on a level with the floor of the terminal. These tracks should connect with a belt line to the railroad systems of the district. Movable bridges or roadways are indicated at intervals over the tracks for passage of motor trucks, wagons, etc. The building should be provided with a telpherage system on both floors, traveling electric cranes on the first floor, and also with a cold-storage room and WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1345 quarters for terminal master and family. The terminal can be con- sidered as a unit and could be extended as the trade developed. It should be constructed and under the control of the ºft. with governmental supervision of the river traffic rates. The terminal on sheet No. 2 is for business on a smaller scale and is suggested for way points on the rivers, where the freight would be received and transferred by truck or wagon to interior points. The same general type of construction is recommended, and different types of mechanical handlers could be installed as traffic might I'êOUllre. th t any point where large quantities of the same class of freight are received regularly a conveyor suitable to that particular item could be installed and operated to advantage. Standard freight rates should be established and controlled by the Interstate Commerce Commission or the Federal Government, so that boat lines would not engage in rate cutting, tending to force rival Companies out of business. DEVELOPMENT OF WATER FRONT AT PITTSBURGH, PA. Referring to paragraph 5 above, it is noted that the city of Pitts- burgh owns a river frontage extending along the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers for a distance of 6% miles, with an area between the street line and the shore line at pool full of about 130 acres. This land is undeveloped except for the paved approaches to the water front on the Monongahela Wharf. º is believed that a terminal about as indicated on sheet 1 of the drawings herewith will admit of the treatment of a large portion of this area with a view to develop- ing the water front in such a way as to be of great benefit both to the city and to the interests of navigation. The terminal unit as indicated on the drawing may be extended all the way from the water front to the street line, and if needed for warehouse storage or other purposes, the entire length of the city- owned water front might j'. utilized for terminals, storage, park- ing of automobiles, or otherwise as may be necessary. At present the only use made of the area, about 18 acres, along the Monongahela River between the Smithfield Street Bridge and the mouth of the river, a distance of 4,400 feet, other than the small amount of mer- chandise transferred to and from the single wharfboat used by a packet line operating on the Ohio, is for the parking of automobiles. It is believed that the benefits the community will derive from a proper terminal upon this city-owned property will fully warrant the construction by the city or other interests of river wharves, ware- houses, etc. At present the city of Pittsburgh is about (July 8, 1919) to vote on a bond issue of $22,000,000 for the improvement of highways (including a boulevard along the Monongahela River), a subway, improvements to the park system, sewerage system, etc. After this matter has been disposed of it is believed that if the subject of a comprehensive treatment of the city-owned river frontage is properly presented to the people it will meet with their approval. As a result of years of experience the large industrial concerns operating on the rivers in this district (United States Steel Corpora- tion, Jones & Laughlin Steel Co., Crucible Steel Co., Pittsburgh Steel 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—85 º 1346 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Co., McKeesport Tin Plate Co., and others) have adopted the polic similar to that proposed, viz, the building of a nearly vertical wall along the water front and occupying, the area back of it for hoists cranes, railroad tracks, etc., for the distribution of material handled over the terminal. DTILIZATION OF NAVIGATION FACILITIES. The commerce of Pittsburgh Harbor and the waterways of this district is increasing, and in 1918 was, in round numbers, as follows: TOnS. I. Harbor at Pittsburgh.----------------------------------------------. 15, 240, 000 II. Monongahela River-------------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16, 540,000 III.

Youghiogheny River--------------------------------------------. 383,000. It is seen that the interests on the several waterways of this dis- trict have to a large extent availed themselves of the use of the improved waterways. With respect to the equipment, there is now operating on the Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio Rivers what is believed the most suitable types of steamboats and barges for towing purposes in use on the inland rivers. The United States Steel Cor- oration, Pittsburgh Steel Co., Jones & Laughlin Steel Co., Duquesne }. Co., Crucible Steel Co., LaBelle Coal & Coke Co., and others have their own fleet of steamers and barges. Most of these steam- boats and barges are of the latest modern steel construction. COALING, REPAIRS, AND STORAGE FACILITIES. Coaling.—The boats are coaled by loading coal into the bunkers direct from coal tipples or from bins at the tipples and by loading from barges with a clamshell hoist. It is believed that the loading facilities are generally adequate. Repairs.-In recent years privately owned marine ways have been built on the Monongahela River as follows: b ºple steel Co., Wilson, Pa. (under construction 1919), 18.8 miles above Pitts- Ulr 8. * Vºia Coal Co., Floreffe, Pa., 24.2 miles above Pittsburgh, Pa. Pittsburgh Steel Co., Alicia, Pa., 57.6 miles above Pittsburgh, Pa. In addition, sectional docks open to the public for repair of boats are maintained on the Monongahela River, Hazelwood Landing, Pittsburgh, and Dravosburg, Pa., and a number of the larger con- cerns own sectional docks for repair of their fleets. On the Ohio River there are three large plants fully equipped for the construction and repair of steel boats and barges. Storage.—At present there are no terminals in the district affordin storage facilities for miscellaneous river traffic. Adequate termina facilities will doubtless keep pace with the necessities of the trade. : É WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. MONONGAHELA RIVER, PA. AND W. V.A. PITTSBURGH, PA. PITTSBURGH, PA.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES WHEELING, W. V.A., DISTRICT. COL. G. P. HOWELL, ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. C ENERAL IDISCUSSION. The water terminals in this district logically divide themselves into two groups, those used for general commodities and open to the public use, and which may appropriately be called public terminals; and those especially built and used for but one kind of commodity, not open to public use, and therefore in reality private terminals. PUBLIC TERMINAT.S. The public water terminals in this district, with a few exceptions, are public landings more or less improved, and wharf boats. They are practically the same as have existed since the time when trans- portation by water was the only means of carrying passengers or freight any distance economically, and when there were few or no railroads. Though these terminals cared for the traffic when it was much greater than at present, it can not be said on that account that they are adequate or suitable now, for with the improved rivers the traffic should be much larger than ever existed before. The landings at the various cities and towns are usually paved slopes owned by the municipalities, which in most cases charge a rental either to the boats for making landings or to the wharf boat if there is one at the site, or both. Where boats are charged for landing, it is either at a given rate for each landing, or per week or year. Wharf boats in most cases are required to pay a yearly rental to the muni- cipalities, and these boats subsist by making charges for the freight handled, consisting in some cases of a percentage of the freight charge, incoming and outgoing, or in other cases in accordance with the weight of freight handled; sometimes there is also a charge for freight hills collected, either on the percentage basis or at a given rate per week or per month. The wharf boats vary in capacity from a few tons to about 250 tons, and generally are owned independently of the freight-carrying boats, the principal exceptions being the two wharf boats at Wheeling, which are owned by the boats using them, and the one at Callipolis, Ohio, which is owned and operated by the same interests that own the Creen Iine of packet boats. While the existing public terminals at most of the localities can handle all of the present traffic, they are neither suitable nor ade- quate for an armount of traffic justifying the expenditures made and proposed for these rivers, especially the Ohio. In the attempts to revive water transportation on these rivers, due consideration seems not to have been given in the past to the matter of terminal facilities, under the impression perhaps that the continuous navigability of the streams alone would revive the traffic. The terminals, the kind 1399 1400 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. of craft, and the way in which they are managed are as impor- tant for navigation as are the channels, but their improvement has not received the same consideration. The improvements of the Ohio River are now sufficiently completed to provide continuous navigation from Pittsburgh to Dam No. 20, 202 miles below, and there has been some revival of traffic on this portion of the river during the past year. How much of it has been due to the im- provements and how much to the stress of war conditions is, of course, not known, but it is certain that, were it not for the improve— ments having made continuous navigation possible, the increase in traffic could not have occurred, no matter how great the need for it under war conditions. The increase in traffic, though noticeable, is not what has has been expected, and this is probably due to a great extent to the neglect of providing suitable craft and to a greater ex- tent to the lack of ample and suitable terminals. However, so long as the boats and the terminals are as a general rule owned independ- ently, there is liable to be a waiting policy in the improvement of facilities for water transportation as improvements in the design of the boats will wait on better terminal facilities, on the idea that it is not economical to make heavy investments in floating equipment until such terminal facilities are improved; and on the other hand, the improvement of terminal facilities will wait until there is more freight to be handled. There is also the problem of the terminal charges when the terminals are owned independently of the freight carriers. These charges in many cases are excessive, and if based on the weight of goods handled, as is often the case, are out of all proportion to the actual freight charge for short distances. It would seem that the first step in the improvement of this situation would be in the merging of the ownership of the terminals and boat lines, or in the terminals being owned by the municipalities, which can better afford to wait for returns on the investments. The present general type of public terminals, that of paved land- ings with wharf boats, is not as inefficient as is often considered, and with some improvements and additions could be made to care for a considerable increase in traffic. The best existing terminal of this type in this district is the one at Huntington, W. Va. This consists of a paved landing, a wharf boat, a warehouse on top of the bank with an incline track between the wharf boat and warehouse by which freight is transferred on cars between the wharf boat and ware- house, and a railway siding to the warehouse. This eliminates the necessity of hauling freight by wagon on the steep grades of the paved wharf, and also allows transferring freight between river and rail. This terminal, except the paved landing, is privately owned. With some improvements in details, it is suitable for economically handling considerable freight. One improvement would be a der- rick for handling heavy articles which at present are not usually carried at all by the boats, and especially if, in addition to the der- rick, there were provided an incline siding so located that boats could moor near enough that freight might be transferred direct between boats and cars. With such an incline heavy articles could also be easily and quickly transferred, and it would be the means of rocuring a large amount of heavy freight that is not now shipped y water at all. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1401 In considering the ideal type of water terminal it is customary to make it a prerequisite that means be provided for transferring freight by telpherage or other º carrying method direct between warehouse on the bank and the boat on the river, the ware- house being above high water with siding or belt line railroad for transferring to or from railroads. The main objection to this type is that it is costly to install, and unless there is considerable work for it the force necessary to operate the machinery is too large and expensive. No doubt this form of terminal would be warranted at the larger cities if the traffic should reach such volumes as should be carried on the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers, but until that time is at hand or there are reasonable prospects of its existence in the near future it is believed that the type of terminal described in previous É. h is suitable and economical and in most cases could be installed at no prohibitive expense, inasmuch as at most locations the wharf boats are already in existence and railroad sidings can also in a great many places $o easily provided. It is improbable that the improved rivers in this district will carry the traffic hoped for until provisions are made for combined water and railway shipments. Terminals making such interchange of shipments possible could be provided without great expense at the following places: At Steubenville, Ohio, with the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Railroad (Pennsylvania system); with switching connections with the Pitts- burgh, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis (Pennsylvania lines) and Wheeling & Lake Erie Railroads. At Martins Ferry, Ohio, with the Wheeling & Lake Erie and Baltimore & Ohio Railroads; with switching connections with the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Railroad. At Wheeling, W. Va., with the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis Railroad (Pennsylvania lines); with switching connections with the Wheeling & Lake Erie and the Baltimore & Ohio Railroads. At Marietta, Ohio, with the Pennsylvania lines; with switching connections with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, provided the terminal were located about one-half mile above the location of the present wharf. At Parkersburg, W. Va., with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. At Pomeroy, Ohio, with the Kanawha & Michigan Railroad. At Huntington, W. Va., with Baltimore & Ohio Railroad; with switching connections with the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad. As previously stated, the water terminal at this site already has a spur to it from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. At Charleston, W. Va., the present terminal is so located as to make it impracticable for railroad connections, but combined rail and water terminals could be located at other sites on both sides of the river, and in this way direct connections could be provided with the Kanawha & Michigan and Chesapeake & Ohio Railroads. There are a number of small cities and towns where railroad sidings to water terminals can easily be provided, but it is considered that transfer places for rail and river shipments are necessary only at the larger shipping points, especially where trunk line railroads are accessible. It is probable that it would be neither economical nor desirable to provide such terminal facilities at all the locations named. i. 1402 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. PRIVATE TERMINALS. At the private terminals existing in this district are numerous coal- mine tipples for water shipments, two coal-unloading plants, a number of derricks for unloading sand, and gravel from barges for railroad shipment, a few log and tie hoists for transferring from rafts to mills or railroad cars, and several incline railroad sidings and small, light incline tracks for transferring to or from top of bank. All the coal tipples are on the Kanawha River except six, which are on the Ohio River. It is difficult to state which of these tipples are efficient, but in a general way it may be said that all of them may be so rated, taking into consideration the conditions under which each is used. Probably the best of their type are those of the Peacock Coal Co. and the Pittsburgh Coal Co., near Pomeroy, Ohio; the Island Creek Fuel Co. at Huntington, W. Va.; the Otto Marmet Coal & Mining Co. at Raymond City, W. Va.; the Campbells Creek Coal Co. at Dana, W. Va.; the Kelly's Creek Colliery Co. at Cedar Grove, W. Va.; and a number of others on the Kanawha River. The two coal-unloading plants previously mentioned are operated by the La Belle Iron Works at Follansbee, W. Va. (opposite Steuben- ville, Ohio), and the West Virginia Washed Coal Co. at Kanauga Station, Ohio (opposite Point Pleasant, W. Va.). The former is used for supplying coal for a by-product coke plant. It is the largest and best equipped water terminal in the district. It has a good dock, part of which is built of concrete and the remainder of Cribwork on piling. It has rapid and economical facilities for taking coal out of the barges. The other plant is used for trans- ferring coal from barges to railroad cars and for washing the coal. No means are provided at this terminal for taking the coal out of the barge into the cars operated on the incline, for which purpose a derrick boat is necessary. The derricks for unloading sand and gravel, with two exceptions, are all located at the larger cities on the Ohio River, or, as at Parkers- burg, not actually in the Ohio River, but used for handling Ohio River traffic. These derricks are exclusively for unloading sand and gravel from barges for shipment by rail or into wagons for local use, or both. There are two plants of this kind in the Elk River at Charleston, W. Va., wº handle sand dug from the Elk River, but most of the gravel is obtained from the Ohio River. These terminals are usually simple affairs, consisting of a derrick . iſing for loading into cars or with bins for loading into wagons, Or both. All the private terminals may be considered suitable and efficient. They are especially designed and built for handling a certain com- modity, and as a rule are inefficient and unsuitable for handling anything else. It may be stated as a general principle of water terminals, or of any kind of terminal, that the more it is adapted for handling a certain commodity, the more efficient and suitable it may be for that purpose, and the more inefficient and unsuitable for any- thing else. In fact, it usually can not be used at all for handling anything except that for which it was especially designed. H. Doc. 652, 66–2, s AND AND GRAVEL UNLOADING PLANT, CHARLESTON, W. V.A. coAL UNLOADING DOCK, FOLLANSBEE, W VA. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1403 GENERAL CONCLUSIONS. As has been previously indicated in this report, the desired in- crease of water transportation in this district has not been realized to date except for coal traffic on the Kanawha River. Some of this failure is undoubtedly due to insufficient time having elapsed since the improvements have been completed for a continuous section of any considerable distance on the Ohio River. Another factor prob- ably has been the timidity of private interests in regard to an enter- prise which until quite recently has been on a gradual decline. How much the existing terminal facilities have been a cause of the present status of water transportation can not be definitely stated, but whether great or little in the past, there is no doubt that in the future the adequacy and suitability of the terminal facilities will be a large factor. It is not believed that the situation warrants or necessitates a sudden large increase in number and capacity or radical change in type of the water terminals. As previously stated, the present public terminals, with some modifications and additions, can handle effi- ciently a considerable increase in traffic. Not so efficiently, it must be admitted, as the ideal terminal but for some time such complete terminals are not warranted except perhaps at the larger cities such as Steubenville, Wheeling, Marietta, Parkersburg, Huntington, and Charleston. Even at the cities mentioned, it is believed the first steps in the improvement of their water terminals should be a ware- house on the top of the bank with some device as an incline track with cars for transferring between warehouse and wharf boats in the river, and track facilities for transferring between warehouse and railroads. This type, as previously described, already exists in Huntington. In addition to this, an incline spur track connecting with the railroads is desirable for transferring shipments in carload lots or heavy articles direct between rail and river. Any further improvements could be obtained only by highly specialized mechanical appliances adapted only for certain articles, but such special equipment can not be con- sidered until the volume and character of freight adapted for handling by special means is sufficient to warrant the cost of installation. No consideration is necessary for the improvement of private terminals. These will be constructed or improved when and wherever the exigencies of private business make it necessary or desirable for economically conducting the business. For water traffic in private commodities, the question of terminals is not a distinct problem, as they are developed with the other necessary adjuncts in carrying on the traffic. In considering the question of terminal developments in the Wheel- ing district attention is called to the fact that there is an average variation between extreme low water and extreme high water of more than 50 feet at the various sites, which fact of course complicates the problem of providing a terminal suitable at all stages of water for handling various classes of freight. Wherever only one kind of freight is to be handled in * quan- tities, highly specialized terminal equipment can be installed almost regardless of the local physical conditions, so that even with a large initial investment the total unit price of loading or unloading the freight will be reduced to a minimum. - 1404 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. OHIO RIVER, STEUBENVILLE, OHIO, TO HUNTINGTON, W. V.A. Location and description.—The Ohio River is formed by the junction of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at Pittsburgh, Pa. It empties into the Mississippi River at Cairo, Ill. The total length of the river is 968.5 miles. Low-water stage prevails generally for a period of about five months each year between the months of July and November, inclusive. High-water stage occurs usually during spring floods, but moderate freshets may occur at any season of the year, being of infrequent occurrance, however, during summer and fall months. - Eristing project.—This contemplates the improvement of the entire Ohio River by the construction of locks and movable dams so as to Fº a minimum channel depth of 9 feet in the pools formed there- y and the widening of the Louisville & Portland Canal at Louis- ville, Ky. The total number of locks and dams proposed in the Wheeling, W. Va., district, which extends from Steubenville, Ohio, to Huntington, W. Va., a distance by river of 230 miles, is 17, Nos. 11 to 27, inclusive, the locks to have usable dimensions of 110 by 600 feet. The Chanoine wicket type of construction is used in the navi- gº passes of the dams. These passes vary in length from 600 to 700 feet. General character of commerce.—The commerce carried on the Ohio River in this district consists principally of farm products and gen- eral merchandise, except below the mouth of the Kanawha River, where a large volume of coal is carried from the Kanawha River fields to Cincinnati, Ohio, and points below. There is also consid- erable coal brought from the Monongahela River to the upper end of this district for the La Belle Iron Works at Steubenville, Ohio. Shipments of coal for local use are also made from mines in the vicin- ity of Wheeling, W. Va., and Pomeroy, Ohio. The large shipments of coal formerly made by river from the Pittsburgh fields to lower Ohio and Mississippi River points have practically ceased, owing to the coal mined in the vicinity of Pittsburgh being required for local consumption. The amount of commerce can not be given, as the commercial statistics for the portion of the Ohio River in this district is not given separately. . Size and type of vessels used.—The vessels used on this river are stern wheel, steam packet boats of about 100 to 250 ton capacity, for transportation of farm products, general merchandise, etc. A small amount of this class of freight is also carried by small stern wheel boats driven by internal combustion engines. Boats of the latter type are also used for towing barges, logs, and transporting coal, lumber, sand, gravel, etc., to near-by points. A few stern wheel steam towboats also operate in towing coal, oils, etc. STEUBENVILLE, OHIO. Situated on the right bank of the river, 67.6 miles below Pitts- burgh. It is a manufacturing city of 23,000 population, with a river frontage of about 3 miles on right bank and an equal distance along the left bank suitable for terminal location. - The railroads are situated on both banks of the river in front of the city. Of the 6 miles of shore line the city owns 1.4 miles, of which 200 feet has been improved by grade and paved wharf. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1405 The main streets of the city are parallel to the water front and the cross streets lead thereto. Of these there is only one available for river business, the remainder having been closed by reason of failure to provide a suitable railroad crossing or grades. The Pennsylvania Railroad (Cleveland & Pittsburgh Division) enters the city by right of franchise on Water Street. The street when franchise was issued was the low river bank and some of the cross streets”had under- crossings which have long since been filled, and the ownership of the filled space now between Water Street and the river is more or less in dispute. The court's decisions, however, have given the city con- trol of the frontage between South and Logan Streets, a distance of 3,800 feet. On the left bank of the river, in front of the city, there is no public highway leading to the river and practically all riparian rights in front of the city in the vicinity of the only highway bridge are controlled by railroad companies. The river in front of the city comprises a portion of the pool formed by Dam No. 11. The elevation of water surface at normal pool is 8.1 feet above lowest known stage. The fluctuation of the water surface, except during the months of February and March, seldom varies more than a few feet, having, however, during extreme flood, a variation of about 50 feet. With the tracks of the trunk line roads on the bank near the shore, favorable conditions exist for derricks and devices for interchange of railroad and river traffic. However, it is not apparent that the rail- road companies desire such interchange at this time. The city maintains a free public wharf at the foot of Market Street. The shore is paved with stone blocks on a 6 per cent grade, and a highway, paved with stone blocks on a 5 per cent grade, connects it with the well-paved streets of the city. This .# has an available dockage of 200 feet, 100 feet of which has recently been repaired. While this wharf is suitable for existing traffic, it is neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying the expenditure made and pro- posed for the improvement of the river, provided commerce is to be transferred over it by trucks. & At this wharf, O. M. Thorniley owns and operates a wooden-hull wharfboat 32 by 130 feet, having a capacity of 250 tons, with an en- closed storage łº space (ś of 28 by 100 feet. It is kept in #º condition, is open to the public on equal terms, and is suitable or handling general merchandise and farm products. The available dockage length is 175 feet. The amount annually handled on this wharfboat is 100 tons. * Charges are 15 per cent of the freight charge for incoming and 3 cents per hundred pounds for outgoing freight. No mechanical de- vices are maintained at this terminal. The cost of handling freight, therefore, varies with the price paid labor, and the time required at ort by vessels varies with amount of labor available. While this boat is sufficiently large to handle a greater amount of traffic than is now carried, it is neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying the expenditure made and proposed for the im- provements of the fiver. Very little interest is taken in the improve- ment of public terminals by the local chamber of commerce. Mer- chants prefer to ship by railroad to avoid the grades to the wharf. Steamboats receiving and discharging freight at this wharf are 1406 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. General Pershing, from Pittsburgh to Parkersburg; General Crowder, from Pittsburgh to Charleston; and General Wood, from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati. - - * Facilities available for repairing consist of two machine shops in the city where minor engine repairs can be made. There is no coaling station and, if boats securé coal at this point, it is deliveredeat wharf by truck. There are no dealers in boat supplies in the city. - The River Sand Co. is owner and operator of a sand and gravel hoist located on the right bank of the river between South and Adams Streets, where it leases from the city of Steubenville a water frontage of 450 feet, having a depth of 200 feet, for which it pays a rental of $250 per year. At this hoist, sand and gravel received from river dredges are transferred from barges to railroad cars on the company’s own track, which is connected with the tracks of the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad, by which cars can be j to any road entering the city. The loading track to this hoist is so graded that cars are shifted for loading purposes by gravity, or material can be transferred from barge to reinforced con- Crete bins built on the river bank, from which it can be loaded for local delivery into trucks and wagons by gravity. A brick-paved highway on level grade connects this terminal with the well-paved streets of the city. The hoist consists of a wooden stiff-leg derrick on pile and concrete foundation, equipped with a 13-yard clamshell bucket and operated by a 60-horsepower steam engine. Boats at this terminal are protected from ice by pile and timber Cribwork projecting from the bank, below which is available dockage of 350 feet. - This plant has a capacity of 75 tons per hour, the yearly shipments under normal conditions amounting to over 123,000 tons, and the cost of transfer from barge to car 4 cents per ton when running at full capacity. While this hoist was built for private use arrangements can be made for the transfer of heavy commerce from rail to river or vice versa, the cost depending upon the kind of commerce. This Company contemplates deepening and enlarging its anchorage by dredging farther into the bank and to a depth of 18 feet below normal pool formed by Dam No. 11. It also expects to increase the capacity of its plant and to construct marine ways provided a long-time lease can be secured from the city; at the present time the lease is renew- able yearly. This plant is in fair condition and serves economically the interests of the company for the purpose for which it was built. The La Belle Iron Works, located on the right and left banks of the river below Adams Street, has a water frontage of 1,900 feet with a depth of 800 feet on the right bank and 5,000 feet with a depth of 900 feet on left bank. The plant occupies both banks of the river, the mills and furnaces being on the right and the coke and by-products on the left, the left bank of the river being occupied for want of room on the right bank. A steel bridge ºi. for heavy traffic connects these two sites and the company’s trackage on both sides of the river. These tracks are connected by spurs from all railroads on both sides of the river. This company owns and operates a coal unloading dock located on the left bank below its connecting bridge and 0.9 mile below the city wharf, constructed of reinforced concrete and connected with WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1407 ° pile and timber cribwork. The water edge is bulkheaded with steel piles. A depth of 11 feet at normal pool formed by Dam No. 11 has been dredged, making available a dockage of 340 feet, which is protected by concrete ice breakers built in connection with river bridge piers. Coal is received at this dock in barges from the Pittsburgh Coal Co., Monongahela River mines. A steel traveling gantry crane, Hammer- head, operated by electricity, and equipped with a 4-ton clamshell bucket, transfers the coal from barge to conveyor, which delivers it to railroad cars that carry it to various pits where it is dumped and later shifted to additional storage by gantry cranes, or from conveyor it can be transferred to the oven bins. Cost between barge and oven bins, via washer and crusher, is 17% cents per ton. Additional ex- pense is incurred if coal is taken to storage as it is necessary to load by gantry cranes to cars and return to end of first conveyor where it is dumped and taken up by second conveyor. No cost data are available for transfer from barge to first conveyor. Total cost of installing plant including first conveyor, ice piers, two Hammerhead cranes, and hopper at dock, $246,500. Capacity for unloading coal from barges, 200 tons per hour; coal received and unloaded during the year, 432,000 tons." This company is now opening mines at Harmarville, Pa., and upon completing the docks at these mines it expects to double the capacity of its coke and by-product plant and handle the coal with its own barges and boats. The most economical feature of this plant is the traveling cranes which take position at dock, unload from barge or at any storage bin and transfer to additional storage or into cars for general use at any port available from the company’s tracks. This plant is new, in first-class condition, and to the fullest extent serves the company for the purpose for which it was constructed. The Steubenville Sand Co. has asked the city council for a lease of river frontage for the purpose of constructing an unloading station where sand and gravel can be unloaded from barges to railroad cars. As yet no location has been agreed upon. MIN GO JUNCTION, OHIO. Situated on right bank of the river, 70.5 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. The Carnegie Steel Co. has completed plans for a contemplated dock at its Mingo works, on the right bank of the river, 70,5 miles below Pittsburgh, for the purpose of unloading coke and coal and loading scrap and manufactured iron. Estimated cost of dock, $1,000,000; capacity for unloading coke and coal, 300 tons per hour; estimated quantity of coke to be transferred per year, 700,000 tons; length of dock, 1,300 feet. It is to be constructed of timber and concrete. Hoist is to consist of overhead traveler, equipped with two clamshell buckets and operated by electricity, these buckets to deliver the coke to conveyors which carry it to storage. This company con- templates transferring coke and coal from the mines on the Monon- gahela River to these docks with its own boats. YORKVILLE, OHIO. Located on the right bank of river 83.2 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. The principal industry is the Wheeling Steel & Iron Co.'s sheet and tin plate mills. * 1408 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. This company has under construction, and 95 per cent complete, an unloading dock where preparations are being made for receiving coal from river mines for use at its plant. This consists of steel stiff-leg derrick on pile, concrete, and timber piers equipped with clamshell bucket and operated by steam engine. Coal is transferred by this derrick from barge to bins constructed on pile and timber wharf, from which it is loaded into electrically operated cars by gravity and transferred to mill where it is received by underground conveyors. - Cost of unloading plant, $50,000; capacity for handling coal from barge to bin, 70 tons per hour. Contemplated yearly tonnage, 125,000. This company has pur- chased towboats and barges for handling coal between mine and mills or iron from the Wheeling mills operated by this company to its Pittsburgh mills. Length of available dock, 87 feet, and contemplated depth of water 10 feet at normal pool. While the greater tonnage handled at this terminal will be coal there are contemplated small shipments of manufactured or partly manufactured products. wARwooD, w. VA. Located on the left bank of river 87.4 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. The Richland Coal Co. owns and operates a coal mine and tipple having a capacity of 900 tons per day. From this tipple coal is loaded into barges for river shipment; into railroad cars, into electric railway cars; into truck's or wagons and into railroad locomotives. The river portion of the tipple consists of a pile and timber constructed incline upon which cars of 5-ton canacity are electrically operated. This incline has an adjustable car dump which is also handled by electricity. This company is equipped with steamboats and barges for river delivery. Available dockage of 400 feet with a depth of 11.8 feet at pool stage formed by Dam No. 13. Sidings from Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis R. R. (Wheeling division), and electric railway for shipping by rail; also paved highway for local truck delivery. Tipple is in fair condition and suitable for the purpose for which it is used. It has a capacity for 900 tons per day of river business. WEST WHEELING, OHIO. Located on the right bank of the river, 91.3 miles below Pitts- burgh, Pa., and opposite Wheeling Island. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. owns and operates an incline leading from the tracks on top of the bank to other tracks of lower grade, which approach the shore line at different elevations, thus making available trackage at various river stages. These tracks are partly on pile foundations. The bank at this point is sloping and normal pool formed by Dam No. 13 is 8.8 feet above low water. No mechanical appliances are furnished by the railroad company for transferring from cars to barges and vice versa. This is usually accommlished by derrick boat furnished by parties handling the freight. The siding is open to all shippers on equal terms except for sand and gravel which is exclu- sively handled by the Armstrong Sand Co. Cars can be set for H. Doc. 652, 66-2, WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1409 unloading on its tracks on a level with deck of vessel and light freight can be transferred by trucks. However, tracks are adaptable to transfer by derrick boat. The Armstrong Sand Co. maintains derrick boats at this incline for the transfer of sand and gravel from barges received from its river dredges to railroad cars. Arrangements can be made with this sand company to transfer heavy freight from barges to cars on incline, the rate depending upon kind of freight handled. Derrick boat used at this incline has capacity of 10 tons, is of wooden-hull construction, 32 by 76 feet, equipped with wooden stiff-leg derrick with a 13-yard clamshell bucket, capacity 60 tons per hour. Under normal conditions this company transfers about 200,000 tons of sand per year. The Bridgeport Sand Co. has purchased machinery for construct- ing sand dredge and hoist, a part of which is now on the ground and the remainder en route. This plant is to be operated in connection with the company's present sand business on right bank of the river, near the Wheeling and Bridgeport bridge, which connects Wheeling Island with the right bank of the river. Pump will deliver sand into boats or at shore where transfer to cars will be made by derrick boat equipped with clamshell bucket. Spur tracks from the Baltimore & Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad sidings to connect this site with main line of these roads are to be constructed by sand company. WHEELING, W. V.A. Situated on the left bank of the river, 90 miles below Pittsburgh, it is the center of a manufacturing district of 80,000 population and has a water frontage on the left bank of 3.4 miles and an equal dis- tance on Wheeling Island, which occupies the river front in front of the city. The channel is near the left shore, excepting for a short distance near the head of the island where it shifts slightly to the island. The location is favorable for anchorage and terminal units. The river in front of the city comprises a portion of the pool formed by Dam No. 13. The elevation of normal pool is 6.8 feet above low water. The fluctuation of water surface, except during the months of February and March, seldom varies more than a few feet; during extreme flood, however, it has a variation of 51 feet. The tracks of the Baltimore & Ohio and Pennsylvania trunk-line railroads traverse the left bank in front of the city to the exclusion of river business for a large percentage of the frontage, but with these tracks near the shore favorable opportunities for various devices for interchange of railroad and river traffic exist. The city streets of Wheeling in many instances have either been closed at the river by city ordinances or from lack of suitable railroad: crossings or grades. From First to Forty-eighth Streets there are four streets available for river business, of which only one has an improved wharf or paved highway connecting the shore with the paved streets of the city. - The terminals in the harbor consist of a public wharf, wharf boats owned and operated by corporations and firms for the purpose of handling freight on équal terms for all shippers, and private hoists, which are not suited for public use. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—89 1410 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. At the foot of Twelfth Street the city of Wheeling owns and main- tains in good condition a wharf with a 6 per cent grade, paved with stone and having a dockage length of 500 feet. Two brick-paved highways on a 4 per cent and a 2 per cent grade connect this wharf with Nº. city streets. - A rental of $75 per year for each wharf boat and 50 cents for each landing of boats is collected by the city. No mechanical devices are maintained at wharf for handling, loading, and unloading freight. The Liberty Transit Co. owns and operates a wooden-hull wharf boat 30 by 230 feet, which has a capacity of 900 tons, where general mer- chandise and farm products are received for shipment. Charges of $1 to $2 for each landing of boats and of 10 per cent of the freight charge for outgoing and incoming freight are made. No mechanical devices for the handling of freight are used at wharf boat by this company, the cost of such handling varying with the price paid labor. + The Wheeling Wharfboat Co. owns and operates a wooden-hull wharf boat 27 by 150 feet, of 200 tons capacity at city wharf, for which charges of $10 per week per boat for landing and 2 cents per 100 pounds for outgoing and incoming freight are made. No mechanical devices are used by this company for handling freight and the expense of such handling, loading, and unloading varies with the wage scale. While the methods of handling freight at this wharf can be considered suitable for existing traffic, they are neither satisfactory to shipper because of grades nor adequate for traffic justifying expenditures made and proposed for the improve- ment of the river. • The Armstrong Sand Co. owns and operates a sand and gravel hoist at Twenty-fourth Street where it leases from the city a frontage of 600 feet, having a depth of 50 feet. Sand and gravel are received in barges at this hoist and transferred to bins on the bank, from which they are loaded into trucks by gravity or from barge into cars on spur track of Pennsylvania Railroad. Capacity of hoist, 70 tons per hour; yearly tonnage under normal conditions, 200,000 tons. This company is now placing about $25,000 on repairs and betterment of lant. - - Plant consists of wooden stiff-leg derrick on concrete and pile foun- dation, equipped with clamshell bucket, operated by steam engine in engine house on bank. Suitable for purpose used; not equipped for public use, although arrangements can be made for the transfer of heavy traffic from boat to car. Depth of water at terminal 14 feet at normal pool level, which is 8.8 feet above low water; available dockage, 200 feet. No data available as to cost of unloading from barge to car. The Wheeling Wall Plaster Co. owns and operates a sand and gravel hoist near First Street, where it secured from the Pennsyl- vania Railroad Co. a frontage of 700 feet, having a depth of 40 feet, and lying between the river and railroad tracks. Material is received at this hoist in barges from river dredges, whence it is transferred to cars on spur tracks of the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis R. R. (Wheeling division). The depth of normal pool formed by Dam No. 13 along the sloping bank of this frontage, which has pile and timber protection at shore, is 4.4 feet above low water. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1411 The hoist consists of a wooden stiff-leg derrick equipped with clam- shell bucket, on concrete and pile foundation, and operated by steam engine in boiler house on bank. Capacity of plant, 60 tons per hour; material transferred under normal conditions, 158,000 tons per year. Plant is being equipped with appliances for setting cars for loading, with power from hoisting engine. Proposed terminal at Twelfth Street wharf.-The city of Wheelin through its chamber of commerce has completed plans for a j whereby interchange of commerce from river to railroad cars, elec- tric railway, cars and truck loading and unloading can be speedily and economically accomplished. This terminal is to be equipped with electric crane for handling heavy freight and electric elevator for handling loaded truck from storage room to deck of vessels. Outgoing freight arriving at terminal to be loaded on truck and upon . arrival of vessel to be lowered to deck and then to be assigned loca- tion, returning trucks to be loaded with incoming freight, hoisted to working floor and thence to truck or cars, but, if necessary, freight to be held on truck and taken up to the storage floor above. Suit- able stairways for passengers to pass from boat to street without going through freight rooms have been provided for. Plans showing Focation and cross-section, herewith attached, have been accepted and a special committee has been appointed to devise ways and means for financing the enterprise. A general interest is being manifested throughout the city in the improvement of terminals. Bridgeport Sand Co. has purchased machinery for a suction dredge to operate in connection with its sand and gravel hoist, to be constructed at head of Wheeling Island, where a site has been se- cured. This dredge will be equipped with 6-inch pumps operated by steam, and will deliver sand and gravel to barges or at the shore where it will be hoisted into bins with derrick, from which bins it will be loaded into trucks for local delivery by gravity. A paved highway is to be constructed to connect this hoist with the paved streets of the city. Capacity is estimated at . 150 tons per hour; estimated cost of plant, $50,000. BELLAIRE, OHIO. This is a city of 16,000 inhabitants, on right bank of river, 94 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. It has about 1 mile of river front. The railroads occupy the banks of the river to the exclusion of the river business for a great percentage of the water front. A pri- vately owned wharfboat with two unpaved graded roads, leading to well-paved streets, and one graded ferry landing are the only access to water front. - - -- John Manley owns and operates a wharf with frontage of 500 feet, depth of 20 feet, between Twenty-sixth and Twenty-ninth Streets. The slope of this wharf has a slag surface and is on a 3 per cent grade; available dockage, 200 feet; depth of water at foot of slope pool, 11% feet above low water. This wharf is accessible from Twenty- sixth and Twenty-ninth Streets. The Twenty-sixth Street entrance has an unpaved highway, crossing railroad tracks at grade. The Twenty-ninth Street entrance is available by unpaved highway, passing underneath railroad track. Owing to the low clearance, access from this street is closed at a 25-foot stage in the river, leaving for the city but one roadway available for river business at all stages. 1412 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Mr. Manley also operates a wharf boat of wooden-hull construction, 110 by 20 feet, of 100-ton capacity, inclosed floor space (cargo box) 90 by 20 feet, suitable for handling merchandise and farm products. No charge is made at this wharf for boats, except a handling charge of 2. to 4 cents per 100 pounds for outgoing and incoming freight. Wharf open to all on equal terms. River steamers coal from barges at this wharf; coal is transferred from the mines to wharf in trucks and loaded into barges by hand. Under normal conditions about 3,000 bushels are loaded per day. Sand and gravel are also received by barges and unloaded by hand at a rate of about 50 cubic yards per day. Several machine shops in the city are equipped for engine repair and steam fittings. The wharf boat is of suitable size for existing traffic but neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying - the expenditures made or contemplated for the improvement of the river. Very little interest is taken by board of trade and merchants in a municipal terminal or the improvement of the present private terminal. MOUNDSVILLE, W. V.A. This is a city of 9,000 population situated on left bank of the river, 101.2 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., and having three-fourths mile of river frontage. . It maintains a wharf between Twelfth and Thirteenth Streets, which has 150 feet available dockage, and a brick paved highway on a 5 per cent grade connects wharf with well- paved city streets. Depth of water at foot of slope, normal pool formed by Dam No. 14, 7.8 feet above low water. The wharf boat owned and operated at this wharf by Mr. Potts having been sunk, a house boat, which is beached on the grade, is used for small packages and to store equipment for caring for freight on wharf. This boat is 30 by 12 feet, with inclosed floor space 20 by 12 feet. Henry Ernst, acting wharfmaster (assistant to Mr. Potts), collects a handling charge of 10 per cent of freight charges for incoming and 5 per cent for outgoing freight from the Liberty Transit Co.'s boats and 10 per cent of freight charges for incoming and outgoing freight is charged the steamer Helen E. and steamer Libery. The arrangement for handling freight is not suitable for resent commerce. Practically no care is taken of freight, the #. boat used amounts to little more than shelter for watchmen. There are now five regular steamers using this wharf. There are no books kept at this wharf that show the tonnage of commerce handled. º Shippers state they would patronize water carriers to a greater extent provided there were suitable wharf boat or freight sheds. A warehouse on bank with car operated on incline track would apparently be most adaptable to this wharf. º Little interest is manifested in improved terminal conditions. The Central Coal Mining Co. owns and operates a coal tipple on right bank opposite the city, 101.2 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., at Dille, Ohio. The land and river frontage occupied is leased from the Compton estate. Six hundred feet of this frontage has been dredged to a depth of 10 feet at normal pool and 8.7 feet below low water. Mine cars are dumped into self-dumping cars of 2 tons capacity on timber-framed incline track operated by electricity, conveying coal from bank to chutes and then carrying it to barge. Motor in- stalled under tipple, capacity 100 tons per day; annual shipments for WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1413 year, 5,000 tons; coal from this tipple can be loaded from the mine cars into railroad cars of the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Railroad (Penn- sylvania lines), but no facilities exist for interchange. Not open to the public, but suitable for the purpose used. Two ice piers of timber crib construction (in poor condition) protect tipple and boats from ice flow. NEW MARTINS VILLE, W. W. A. This is a city of 2,800 population, situated on the left bank, 128.2 miles below Pittsburgh. It has a river frontage of one-half mile. The city maintains at the foot of Washington Street a stone-paved wharf with 75 feet available dockage, protected at the water's edge by concrete retaining wall; depth of water at normal pool 9 feet above low water, giving 10 feet at wall. Brick-paved street o 7 per cent grade connects wharf with paved streets of the city. Wharf with additional paved area would be suitable for existing traffic, but neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying expend- itures made and contemplated for improvement of the river. New Martinsville Wharf Boat Co. owns and operates a wooden- hull wharf boat 34 by 90 feet, having a capacity of 100 tons, inclosed floor space (cargo box) of 34 by 40 feet; suitable for general merchan- dise and farm products. A charge of $2 per landing is made by the Liberty Transit Co. and a landing charge of $5 per week for steamer Libery and steamer Helen E. Approximately 2 cents per 100 pounds is charged for incoming and outgoing freight. Sixty tons of merchandise freight is handled per week. Five regular packets receive and discharge freight at this wharf. The New Martinsville Sand Co. recently purchased a frontage of 635 feet having a depth of 900 feet at the upper boundary of the city 127 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., and 500 feet below Corliss Sand Co.'s hoist. This company has under construction a spur track from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad to the site of its proposed terminal. Material for hoist and operating machinery is now on the ground. Hoist to consist of wooden stiff-leg derrick on concrete pile É. tion, equipped with 14-yard clamshell bucket, operated by 60 horsepower steam engine, and having a capacity of 400 yards per day. Barges are received at this hoist from dredges in river and contents transferred to cars only. No public highway to hoist. The Corliss Sand Co. owns and operates a sand and gravel hoist on left bank 1.2 miles above city wharf. Plant consists of wooden stiff leg derrick on pile and concrete foundation, equipped with clamshell bucket and operated by steam engine on bank, capacity 400 yards per day. Plant not open to the public, constructed for the purpose of transferring gravel received in barges to railroad cars on Baltimore & Ohio siding. Plant in good condition. Suit- able for the purpose for which it was constructed. Available dock- age, 200 feet. MARIETTA, OHIO. The harbor is on the right bank of the Ohio River at the mouth of the Muskingum River, 172 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. The harbor is divided into two parts, Ohio River and Muskingum River frontage. The Ohio frontage extends along the right bank of the river from the foot of Seventh Street to Mile Run, a distance of 1.5 miles; the 1414 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Muskingum frontage extends along both banks of the river from its mouth to Indian Run, a distance of 1 mile; total river frontage, 3.5 miles. Of this total mileage, the city owns about 1 mile and individuals and firms 2.5 miles, while the railroad companies have secured permission to traverse the streets near the center of the busi- ness section of the city. Sufficient number of spur tracks from the trunk-line railways are near the shore in localities to make favorable sites for interchange of railway and river traffic. However, it is not apparent that the railway companies desire such interchange at this time. Dam No. 1, Muskingum River, is located near the junction with the Ohio River and has a lock of sufficient size to permit all Ohio River steamers to reach the terminals in pool above. The Ohio River in front of the city comprises a portion of pool formed by Dam No. 18. The elevation of the water in these two pools seldom fluctuates more than a few feet except during the months of February and March, at which time, during extreme flood, it has been known to have a varia- tion of 56.9 feet. - The terminals in the harbor consist of wharf, wharf boat, railway inclines, private hoists, and oil unloading stations. The city of Marietta maintains three wharves on the Ohio River front and two on the Muskingum River, the Front Street wharf on the Ohio River being the most important. This wharf is located along Ohio Street between Front and Second Streets; has paved frontage of 500 feet, with 8.4 feet of water at pool stage; slope paved with stone between low water and the paved streets of the city. Wharf is accessible from Front and Second Streets. A brick-paved highway on a 3 per cent grade connects Front Street with wharf boat. No mechanical devices are maintained at this wharf for handling, loading, or unloading freight, the cost of same varying with price of labor. Municipal rental for wharf boats, $75 per year and $2 per landing for regular steamers, and 50 cents for regular gasoline and tramp boats. There are seven boats regularly receiving and discharging freight at this wharf. While this wharf and roadway (with some repair) are suitable for a greater traffic than now exists, they are neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying expenditures made and contem- plated for the improvement of the river, provided commerce contin- ues to be transferred by trucks and wagons from wharf boat to desti- nations in city. - Putnam Street wharf, on the left bank of the Muskingum River, 500 feet above Lock No. 1, has a dockage of 60 feet and stone-paved wharf on an 8 per cent grade; length of available shore line, 80 feet, and a paved depth of 100 feet; depth of water at foot of slope at pool stage, 8 feet. A brick-paved highway connects this wharf with the paved streets of the city. No mechanical devices are available at this wharf and it is now used only by tramp boats. - Washington Street wharf is 3 mile above Dam No. 1, Muskingum River, and is on the left bank of the river. This wharf is about 150 feet long, stone paved, on about a 7 per cent grade, with brick-paved highway on about 5 per cent connecting it with the paved streets of the city. Wharf used by steamer Liberty, Pittsburgh and Zanesville, and for unloading barges, sand, gravel, and coal by hand or by der- rick boats supplied by shipper. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1415 Gilman Street wharf is on the Ohio River front, 700 feet below the mouth of the Muskingum River. This wharf is 125 feet in length and paved with stone from low water to the paved streets of the city on about a 7 per cent grade. It is principally used by tramp boats; all boats will take freight. - - Marietta wharf-boat.—Best & Harper own and operate a wooden- hull wharf boat located at Front Street city wharf, about 1,500 feet above the mouth of the Muskingum River. Dimensions of boat, 34 by 170 feet, with capacity of 250 tons. Depth of water, 8.4 feet above low water. Length of available dockage, 200 feet. Municipal rental, $75 per year. Landing charge of $2 per landing for regular steamers and 50 cents for regular gasoline and tramp boats. A handling charge of cent to 5 cents per 100 pounds, depending On floor space occupied, is charged. Available floor space inclosed (cargo box) is 34 by 140 feet on first deck; passenger waiting room on second deck. This boat is in fair condition, and while suitable for more traffic than is now received, it is neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying the expenditure made and contemplated for improving the river. A large percentage of business is done by gasoline and tramp boats. There are no mechanical devices other than those furnished by shippers. Yearly tonnage, 2,500 tons. Fourth Street wharf.-On Ohio River front at Fourth and Wayne Streets; length at foot of slope, 180 feet; stone paved on about a 7 per cent grade from low water to the paved streets of the city. The principal business at this wharf is conducted by tramp boats handling oil-well equipment and timber; depth of water at foot of paved slope, 8 feet below normal pool formed by Dam No. 18. This wharf has no freight shed or wharf boat and is used for nonperishable COIſll ſlēI’Ce. º - Incline-railway track.-The Marietta & Cleveland Railway Co. (Pennsylvania lines) owns and operates as one of its spur tracks an incline track on the Ohio River front, at the intersection of Sixth and Wayne Streets, where it extends along the bank to low water at a point near Fifth Street. Cars are set on this siding for transfer from car to water carrier or vice versa. The principal commerce thus transferred during last year was coal, timber, sand, and gravel; 5,276 tons of gravel was loaded from barge to car at this incline by the Marietta Sand Co. No data are available as to amount of timber and junk transferred from river to cars. Track is open to all on equal terms. Depth of water at foot of sloping bank, 8.4 feet below normal pool formed by Dam No. 18. The National Refining Co. is located on the Ohio River front near Mile Run and owns and operates an oil unloading station, consisting of pipe lines from river to storage tanks operated by compressed air. Limited quantities of oil are now received in barges from Ports- mouth, Ohio. Plans are now being prepared by this company for a line of oil barges, to be self-propelled or handled by towboats, to transfer the oil from the recently developed oil field at Beattyville, Ky. It is impossible to estimate the amount of commerce this industry will create. - The Lubric Oil Co. owns and operates a gasoline unloading station at Seventh Street. This consists of pipe lines from its storage tanks to the river, where they connect with river barges and are operated 1416 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. by air from the compressors at the plant; this gasoline can also be transferred to tank cars on spur track from the Pennsylvania Rail- way. During 1918, 200,000 gallons were transferred; data for 1919 are not available. - . The Marietta Sand Co. owns and operates a sand and gravel unload- ing station on left bank of the Muskingum River at Butler Street, about 700 feet from mouth of the river, where the company secured from the city of Marietta and Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. a dockage of 100 feet, which has been dredged to 14 feet below normal pool formed by Dam No. 18, Ohio River. - - This hoist consists of a wooden stiff-leg derrick on pile and concrete foundation, equipped with 1-yard clamshell bucket operated by a 30-horsepower steam engine; capacity 300 tons. Sand and gravel are received in barges from dredges in the Ohio and Muskingum Rivers and transferred to cars on spur track of the Marietta & Cleveland Railway (Pennsylvania lines), or into wood framed bins on concrete piers, where the material is loaded by gravity into wagons and trucks (three trucks loading at one time), or into storage pit (15,000-ton capacity), or by derrick to cars on the spur track of the Monongahela Valley Traction Co. . This company con- templates transferring coal from barges to trucks for local delivery in the near future. While this hoist was intended to be used for sand, gravel, and coal, arrangements can be made by which all kinds of heavy materials can be transferred from Open cars to barge, or vice versa. Paved streets of city connect with paving at plant. During 1918 this hoist transferred about 43,000 tons. - The Marietta Sand Co. owns and operates a sand and gravel un- loading plant at Gilman Street, on right bank of the Muskingum River, one fourth mile above Dam No. 1, where it owns a frontage of 600 feet. This plant consists of a steel stiff-leg derrick on concrete pile founda- tion, equipped with 14-yard clamshell bucket and operated by electric motors. Capacity of plant, 750 tons per day. In addition to this a wooden-hull derrick boat about 30 by 80 feet, equipped with a 1-yard clamshell bucket, assists in unloading barges. Sand and gravel are received at this station in barges from the company's Ohio and Mus- kingum River dredges and transferred to cars on Baltimore & Ohio Railroad siding, or to storage, or to wagons or trucks on well-paved street. During 1918 this hoist transferred from barge to cars or to truck about 95,300 tons. While this hoist was built for private use, arrangements can be made for the transfer of coal, timber, and other materials in carload lots, and such transfers amounted in 1918 to 700 tons. Total com- merce traffic for the year 1918, 96,000 tons. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. owns and operates an incline track on right bank of the Muskingum River one-half mile above its junction with the Ohio River. This siding connects with the Ohio & Little Kanawha Railway (Baltimore & Ohio lines) track on gravel ballast along sloping bank. Dredged dock, 200 feet. Depth of water at normal pool formed by Dam No. 1, Muskingum River, 6 feet. Sand, gravel, coal, timber, and farm products are transferred from barges to cars. No mechanical devices for handling freight are fur- nished by railroad companies. However, the Marietta Sand Co.'s hoist and derrick boat are available for transfer of heavy freight by special arrangement. Machine shops are available for repairs for engines and heavy forgings. Coal for steamers by truck. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSIFER FACILITIES. 1417 Efforts are being made by steamboat owners to have wharf boat owned by city of Marietta. Some interest is manifested in improved water terminal, but no plans have been prepared for modern methods. PARKERSBURG, W. V.A. The harbor is located along the left bank of the Ohio River at the mouth of the Little Kanawha River, 184.7 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. It is divided into two parts, Ohio River and Little Kanawha River frontage; the Ohio frontage extends from Hall Street to a point almost 3,000 feet below the mouth of the Little Kanawha River, a distance of 1.5 miles; the Little Kanawha frontage is on both banks for 1 mile, making a total of 3.5 miles. The Baltimore & Ohio Railway has control of a large percentage of the river front on the right bank of the Little Kanawha and the Ohio above the mouth of the Little Kanawha. Dam No. 1, Little Kanawha River, is located above the city limits, and the pool formed by Dam No. 19, Ohio River, governs the eleva- tion of water in both streams in the harbor. The elevation of the water at normal pool is 9.8 feet above low water; fluctuations of the water surface seldom vary more than a few feet, except during the months of February and March. The fluctuation has, however, been known to vary 58.5 feet as a result of extreme floods. With the spur track from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad on the banks of both rivers, favorable locations exist for interchange of rail- road and river traffic. It is not apparent, however, that this company desires such interchange at this place at the present time. The terminals in the harbor consist of wharf, wharf boat, sand, gravel, and log hoists. The city of Parkersburg owns and maintains a paved wharf at the foot of Ann Street. This wharf is equally as accessible to Second Street; has frontage on both rivers and a graded frontage of 1,000 feet; dockage of 750 feet, 500 of which is bulkheaded at water's edge by pile and timber and is in fair condition. Depth of water at normal pool, formed by Dam No. 19, is 9.8 feet above low water, or a total depth of 20 feet at dock. Two brick-paved highways, No. 1 on Ann Street, having a grade of 6 per cent, and No. 2 on Second Street, having a grade of 3 per cent, connect the wharf boat with the paved city streets. This wharf, with some repair, is suitable for greater commerce than now exists, but is neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying expenditure made and proposed for the Ohio River improvements if commerce continues to be trans- ferred by truck and wagons. s * Wharf boat.—E. R. Potts & Co. owns a wooden-hull wharf boat 38 by 185 feet, with capacity of 250 tons, in poor condition, located at the foot of Ann Street near the mouth of the Little Kanawha River. Also floating platform for driveway 25 by 100 feet. Lenght of dock- age, 270 feet; cargo box, 38 by 175 feet; depth of water, normal pool, 9.8 feet above low water, giving 20 feet of water at dock. No mechanical devices are used for handling freight, loading, or unloading. Cost of handling freight, etc., varies with the wage scale. A handling charge of 2 cents per 100 pounds is made for outgoing and incoming freight. If kept in good condition this boat would be suit- able for the Little Kanawha River, but neither suitable nor adequate 1418 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. for the expenditures made and contemplated for Ohio River im- provements. This company contemplates building a new floating platform for driveway and having the hull of wharf boat repaired in the near future. Of the 7,500 yearly tonnage handled at this wharf, a large percentage is transferred from Ohio River to Little Kanawha River carriers, as none of the larger Ohio River boats travel the Little Kanawha River. Parkersburg Milling Co. owns and operates a log hoist in connec- tion with its mills on the right bank of the Little Kanawha River, one-half mile from its mouth, where they own a frontage of 2,000 feet. Logs from the head of the Little Kanawha River are splashed into the main stream where they are rafted into lock-size rafts and in this manner received at the mill along the sloping bank where the water has a depth of 10 feet at normal pool. The hoist consists of a timber-framed incline upon which a chain conveyor is operated by the steam power from the mill. Five hundred of these rafts, or about 7,000,000 feet b. m., are transferred from river to mill each year. The Parkersburg & Marietta Sand Co. owns and operates a sand and gravel unloading station on right bank of Little Kanawha River 500 feet above its mouth where it leases from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. a frontage of 160 feet. This plant consists of a wooden stiff-leg derrick, equipped with a 1-yard clamshell bucket on pile foundation, and operated by steam engine. Length of dockage, 160 feet; depth of water, 12 feet at foot of sloping bank; capacity, 500 tons per day; yearly tonnage transferred, 120,000 tons. " This hoist was constructed for transferring sand and gravel, but arrangements can be made to transfer heavy commerce from barge to railroad cars, or vice versa, about 60 carloads having been trans- ferred during the month of March, 1919, at approximately 1 cent per 100 pounds. The Parkersburg & Marietta Sand Co. owns a frontage of 160 feet on left bank of Little Kanawha River above the Highway Bridge, 450 feet from mouth of river, upon which the company operates a sand and gravel unloading station. Sand and gravel are received from its Ohio River dredges in barges and transferred to timber- framed bins from which the material is loaded into trucks by gravity. Dockage, 160 feet; depth of water, 12 feet. Plant consists of wooden stiff-leg derrick on concrete pier equipped with 13-yard clamshell bucket, and operated by steam engine. Storage bins and timber platform on pile foundation are accessible to the paved streets of the city. Capacity of plant, 500 tons per day; amount of tonnage, 120,000 tons per year; plant in good condition, suitable for purposé used. Arrangements can be made for transfer of heavy material from barge to truck. Incline owned and operated by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. on right bank of the Little Kanawha River about 1,000 feet above its junction with the Ohio River. This incline is operated the same as the spur tracks along the bank; track on ballast foundation along sloping bank where the water is 10 feet at normal pool. Cars are set where they are level with the barge and transfer is made by hand. The city of Parkersburg, through efforts of the chamber of com- merce, has arranged with the Neville Dock Co., of Pittsburgh, Pa., to install a floating dock at the mouth of the Little Kanawha River. It is contemplated to build boats at this dock as well as to do general gº WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1419 repair work. Dock is of sufficient size to handle all regular boats now touching at this harbor. Several machine shops in the city are fitted for repair of steamboat machinery. Considerable interest is taken in terminal improvement, but no plans have been made for modern methods of handling commerce. Coal for steamers is obtainable at wharf by trucks. Efforts are being made by steamboat Owners to have the city own and control wharf boat. POMEROY, OHIO. A city of 4,000 population, situated on right bank of the river, ; miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. It has a water frontage of about 3 miles. The Hocking Valley Railroad and the Qhio River Electric Railway & Power Co.'s tracks occupy the top of bank for the entire distance. The terminals of the city consist of wharves and inclines. The city owns a stone-paved wharf at foot of Linn Street, which has a frontage of 50 feet and a grade of 17 per cent for the first 50 feet where a brick- paved highway on a 4 per cent grade connects it with the paved streets of the city. Depth of water at foot of slope, 6 feet above low water. This wharf, if provided with warehouse or wharf boat, is suitable for present commerce, but neither suitable nor adequate for commerce justifying the expenditure of funds made or contemplated for the improvement of the river. º steamers regularly receive and discharge freight at this "WIla, I’í. There is no way of arriving at the tonnage shipped from this port. There is an increased interest manifested in terminal facilities. The old wharf has been cleaned and arrangements are being made to form a wharf-boat company composed of the heaviest shippers, and also to increase paved area at wharf and improve the grade, the boat to be maintained at city wharf. The company, as yet, is not organ- ized; meeting to be called for this purpose in the near future. Of the 3 miles of frontage, only two streets are open for river business. Coal tipple.—The Pittsburgh Coal Co. leases a frontage of 1,000 feet, upon which it owns and operates a wooden-framed coal tipple on pile and timber crib foundation incased in concrete. Available dredged dockage, 200 feet, with a depth of 17 feet at pool level. Coal from this mine is loaded into barges, shifted into position by the current while being loaded by electric motor. Coal is loaded into barges by a Jeffry conveyor and loading beam, operated by electric motor under tipple; capacity, 450 tons per day. This tipple is also used in loading railroad cars on sidings from Ohio River Electric Railway & Power Co.'s tracks which connect with the Hocking Valley & Kanawha & Michigan Railway. Tipple is suitable for purpose used but is not open to public. No arrangement exists for interchange from barge to rail or vice versa. Good cinder highway connects tipple with city streets. This company ships 40,000 tons of coal in barges from this tipple per year. The concrete pier forms a good ice breaker which prevents ice flows from interfering with loading. When loading takes place while ice is running, loaded barges are shifted down the river about 3 miles to where they receive protection by means of concrete ice piers built by the Government at Middleport, Ohio. 1420 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Incline.—The Pomeroy Salt Association Co. owns a frontage of 350 feet on right bank, 249.5 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., upon which it owns and operates an incline in connection with its plant. Depth of water at foot of sloping bank 6 feet at low water. Incline consists of double track on stone ballast, two cars of 2-ton capacity each, operated by gravity. Incline in good condition; capacity, 300 tons per day. . Tonnage by local steamers, 245 tons per year; tonnage by barges, 800 tons per year; total, 1,045 tons per year. - . This plant also loads into standard railroad cars on spur tracks owned by the company and operated by the Ohio River Electric Railway & Power Co., which switches to the Hocking Valley and Kanawha & Michigan Railway Co.'s incline for loading salt on river carriers. No existing facilities for transferring from river to rail- road cars or vice versa. Incline is not open to the public. The Peacock Coal Co. (Charter Oak mine) leases a river frontage of 600 feet, upon which it owns and operates a coal tipple. v. This tipple is a wooden-framed structure on a 30 by 40 foot timber- crib pier filled with stone and incased in reinforced concrete. Depth at low water, 6 feet. This tipple is equipped with three adjustable car dumps operated by gravity for loading lump coal; capacity, 800 tons per day. It is also equipped with adjustable chutes for loading fine coal or slack, which chutes have similar capacity. Coal from this mine can be routed from mine to railroad tipple where cars are loaded on the company's tracks and shifted by the Ohio River Electric Railway & Power Co. to the Hocking Valley or Kanawha & Michigan tracks. The tipple has recently been repaired at considerable expense and is now in condition to begin shipping by river. No method is avail- able for transferring from river to rail or vice versa. The Pomeroy Dock Co.—This company owns a water frontage along Main Street, between Spring and Sycamore Streets, of 2,000 feet, a depth of 100 feet; depth of water at dock, 14 feet at low water. The Hocking Valley Railroad and the Ohio River Electric Railway & Power Co. have their tracks on top of the bank at this point. The marine way of this company consists of five cradles, 14 by 32 feet; water space, 16 feet. Track consists of 10 by 10 inch timber, protected by two # by 4 inch iron straps on top. These timbers are supported by 8 by 10 inch longitudinal mud sills 8 feet center to center; grade of track, 3 inches per foot. Two cast-iron crabs are connected to each cradle with 1-inch chain, 10 crabs in all. They are operated by steam engine, connection being made at each crab by means of longitudinal shaft. The company builds and repairs barges for the Peacock Coal Co. and the E. J. Hickey Transportation Co. The dock is not open to public, although arrangements can be made for repair of boats. - PoinT PLEASANT, w. VA. This is a city of 2,100 population, located on left bank of the Ohio River at the junction of the Kanawha River, 265 miles below Pitts- burgh, Pa. It has an Ohio River frontage of about 1% miles and 1 mile on the Kanawha River. The business section of the city is along the Ohio River front and the low ground near the bluff. The railroads enter the city at an elevation suitable for river crossings. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1421 This has kept the railroad tracks away from the shore in the business 'section of the city. The river frontage of the city is largely con- trolled by river shippers, dock companies, and individuals. A large percentage of the coal companies shipping by water from mines on the Kanawha River own or lease anchorage or landings near the mouth of the Kanawha River, where coal is received in barges and assembled into larger fleets, if necessary to await desirable stages in Ohio River. The terminals in the harbor consist of wharf, ware- house, inclines, docks, coal-unloading stations, and log hoists. Coal is available for coaling boats from iº and at wharf by teams. Several machine and boiler shops are near the shore, where engines and boilers can be repaired, and at least three dry docks are avail- able for repair of hulls. Wharf.--The city of Point Pleasant owns a brick-paved wharf at the foot of Fourth Street, on the Ohio River front, 264.6 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. Timber crib protects paving at foot of slope. Brick paving from low water to city streets on a 12 per cent grade is in good Sºon; normal pool at foot of slope gives 10 feet of water at WI18N I. - No mechanical appliances are maintained at wharf for loading or handling freight, and the cost of loading and handling depends upon price paid labor. A municipal rental of $25 per year is paid for wharf boat or movable warehouse. There is no railroad connection at this wharf. Movable warehouse.—E. E. Varian owns and operates a wooden- framed movable warehouse at city wharf at foot of Fourth Street, building, 15 by 26 feet, capacity, 20 tons; suitable for general mer- chandise. This building is on wheels and can be shifted to suit river stages by means of hand crab at top of bank. , Charges vary from 10 cents minimum charge to 20 per cent of freight charge for incoming freight. This building is suitable for existing perishable traffic if maintained near shore and constructed in a more substantial manner. It is neither suitable nor adequate for traffic justifying ex- penditures made and proposed for the improvement of the river. One hundred tons of freight are handled at this wharf per month. Little interest is manifested in improved public terminal condi- tions. Merchants prefer to ship by railroad where there is less risk in handling by truck and the carrier is more responsible for loss or damage occurring en route. Coal-wnloading station—Kamauga Station, Ohio.—The West Vir- ginia Washed Coal Co., Point Pleasant, W. Va., owns a frontage of 1,000 feet on right bank of river 263.4 miles below Pittsburgh and opposite the upper city limits of Point Pleasant, upon which it owns and operates a coal-unloading station. This station is used for trans- ferring coal from barges to railroad cars. Plant is also equipped for washing coal and returning it to barges or loading into railroad cars. Tipple and incline are of timber-framed construction, in good con- dition. In front of station there is 500 feet available dockage with normal pool 4.8 feet above low water. Coal is received from the company's mines on Ohio and Kanawha Rivers in barges and trans- ferred by derrick boat equipped with a 2-yard orange-peel bucket, to hopper or bin on small barge at foot of incline tracks; 4-ton cars are operated on incline by steam engine on derrick boat or from engines in the tipple. Adjustable track connecting incline with small barge 1422 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. permits incline cars to pass under the bins where they are loaded by gravity. . At top , of incline, they are automatically dumped onto screens, from which the coal is conveyed by gravity to cars on com- pany's spur track from the Hocking Valley Railroad. This plant is not open to the public, but is suitable for the use for which it was constructed. Arrangements can be made for unloading coal at this station; plant not equipped for transferring from cars to barges; cinder road connects plant with piked road. Capacity of plant, 1,100 tons per day. Coal unloaded under normal conditions, 13,000 tons per month. Cost of plant, including washing machinery and underground conveyor and derrick boat, $160,000. Since February 20, 1919, this plant has not been in regular use, due, it is said, to changing of railroad freight rate from Cincinnati, Ohio, to Indian- apolis, Ind. Incline.—G. G. Varian owns a frontage of 300 feet on left bank of the Kanawha River, 700 feet from the junction of that stream with the Ohio River, upon which he operates an incline track on wooden trestles, constructed for the purpose of unloading coal, sand, and ravel for local delivery by trucks and wagons. Depth of water at #. of bank, 4 feet at low water. A car of 2-ton capacity is lowered by gravity, loaded by hand, and hoisted by steam engine. There is an adjustable cradle at the shore line for the purpose of bringing car on level with barge at different stages of water. Capacity of plant is 80 tons per day. Tonnage per year— TOnS.

Incline track.-H. C. Varian is the owner of 300 feet of frontage on the Ohio shore extending from the shore to the paved street, upon about 280 feet of which he operates a coal yard, sand and gravel bins. An incline track extends from these bins to low water. A 2-ton car is operated upon this incline by a 40-horsepower steam engine. An adjustable cradle is maintained on this incline at the shore, which permits lowering the car to a level with the barge at all stages of water. Available dockage, 250 feet, with a depth of 4 #. at low water. The cars on incline are loaded by hand, drawn up the incline by engine and dumped at the bins from which the material is distributed by trucks and wagons. One hundred feet of cinder road connects bins with paved streets. Capacity of incline, 80 tons per day. Tonnage handled per year, 900 tons sand and gravel; 300 tons coal; total, 1,200 tons. The plant is suitable only for local coal yard. It is not open to the public and has no railroad connection. Enterprise, Marine Dock Co.—This company owns frontage on the right bank of the Kanawha River from the Baltimore & Ohio Railway bridge to the mouth of Crooked Creek, about 1,000 feet, at which point it does a general dock business, building and repairing steam- boats and barges and other water crafts. The company now has WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1423 five sectional docks 39 by 120 feet with a depth of 4 feet. In con- nection with dock it operates a sawmill on the bank which has a capacity of 10,000 feet b. m. per day. . This mill receives its logs in rafts and is equipped with inclined log hoists that transfer them from river to sawmill on top of bank. The incline consists of a track on timber-framed trestlework upon which are operated heavy cars that are lowered by gravity into the river and the logs floated onto them and then drawn to mill by steam power from mill. Capacity 10,000 feet per day. This company has planing mills on the bank and at the dock. These docks handle shallow boats up to 180 feet in length. This company contemplates placing five more dock sections, 55 b, 160 feet, depth 45 feet, in the near future. This would give the id: the same capacity it had before the ice flow of February, 1918. Point Pleasant Dry Dock Co. owns 600 feet of river front on right bank of the Kanawha River and the Ohio River at mouth of the Kanawha River, where the company operates a three-section dry dock 20 by 39 feet. These docks will accommodate a standard sized coal barge and flat. They are equipped with necessary machinery. This company will soon place in operation a dry dock 56 by 261 feet, having capacity for handling an 800-ton craft, which will give the dock the same capacity it had prior to the loss during ice flow of February, 1918. The Kanawha Dock Co. has 500 feet of river frontage with deep water on right bank of Kanawha River extending from Crooked Creek to a point 700 feet from the mouth of the river. This compan does general building and repair work of all kinds of river craft. F. has seven sectional docks, which have a lifting capacity of 600 tons. The equipment for all kinds of work is modern. These docks are not protected from ice flow. This company also operates a sawmill with capacity of 15,000 feet b. m. per day. It also has a planing mill in connection with sawmill on bank and one in connection with river sawmill.

This is a city of 5,000 population, situated on the right bank of river, 269.1 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. It has a river frontage of about 1% miles, which is owned by the city, by corporations, and by individuals. The railroad companies own but a small percent- age of frontage. The terminals of the city consist of wharf and wharf boat. - The city owns a graded wharf having 700 feet frontage, 150 feet of which is paved to an elevation of 37 feet average, and a public high- way paved with brick connects wharf with street at top of bank. Wharf and highway are on about a 10 per cent grade. . This wharf is located about 800 feet below three concrete ice piers, which make good protection from ice. . Depth of water at normal pool, 10.3 feet above low water. . No mechanical devices are available for loading or handling freight. The only railroad tracks near the river are at the coal yard about one-fourth mile above wharf, where the Hocking Valley Railroad Co. has a spur track to top of bank. This track also connects with the IXanawha & Michigan Railway. This wharf is suitable for a greater traffic than now exists. Paving the present driveways that are on 3 and 4 per cent and increasing the paved area of present grades would improve its capacity. - Small boiler works 500 feet below wharf are prepared for repair work for steamers; also a small machine shop in the city is equipped for minor repairs to engines. - Five boats now touch at this wharf. Wharf boct.—The Creen Wharfage Co. owns and operates at city wharf at foot of Court Street, on right bank of river, 269.1 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., a wooden-hull wharf boat, gunwales lined with reinforced concrete, dimension 40 by 180 feet, capacity of 300 tons, and containing cargo box 40 by 170 feet suitable for general merchandise and farm products. This company charges regular boats from $3 to $5 per week and an arbitrary rate for tramp boats. A handling charge of 10 per cent of freight charge for incoming freight is charged. It is suitable for a large expansion of present business and, with some repair, would probably handle all river business for several years of rapid increase in commerce. Principal interest taken by citizens is in securing additional local boats, but little interest is taken in improving terminal. HUNTINGTON, W. W. A. This is a city of 35,000 population, situated on left bank of the Ohio River, 308.4 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa. It has a river frontage of about 5 miles on the Ohio and Guyandotte Rivers. Its terminals consist of wharf, wharf boat, sand and gravel hoists, coal unloading station, and log and tie hoist. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway enter the business section of the city and their spur tracks are on the bank of the river in many places. H. Doc, 652, 66-2, WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1425 The principal wharf is at the foot of Tenth Street. It consists of a paved street extending to the water, having about a 15 per cent grade from top of bank to shore line which portion has stone paving. This, with the addition of some brick paving intended for ferry landing, gives about 100 feet paved frontage at shore. The city has leased this wharf for a term of 50 years to the Huntington Wharf & Storage Co., now operating wharf boat. The Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Co.'s spur track is at top of bank 50 feet above wharf. This wharf is not suitable for existing traffic. Wharf boat, incline, and warehouse.—The Huntington Wharf & Storage Co. has leased a river frontage (including the Tenth Street Wharf) from the city, with exclusive rights to operate wharf in city, for the term of 50 years. This company owns a wooden-hull wharf boat 32 by 140 feet, of 150 tons capacity, with cargo box 32 by 134 feet, which it operates at Tenth Street Wharf where it has warehouses on the top of bank and incline connecting boat and warehouse—warehouse No. 1, 36 by 150 feet, and No. 2, 28 by 150 feet, operated as one building. Combined tonnage for merchandise estimated at 2,000 tons. Building and boat are in good condition and suitable for handling general merchandise and farm products. Freight is unloaded from river steamers on 1-ton trucks operated by hand on deck of boat or floor of warehouse from which it is conveyed to car on inclined track which is adjusted so it comes level with deck of wharf boat. This car is 10 by 15 feet, with capacity of 25 tons and is operated by a 25-horsepower engine in warehouse on top of bank. When car arrives at warehouse the small trucks are conveyed to place ready for loading into other trucks for city delivery or they are taken to storage booths if intended to be held for any considerable time. Paved streets of the city connect at warehouse. - There is a spur track from Chesapeake & Ohio Railway at ware- house where railway cars can be unloaded to warehouse trucks and thence to river by incline or vice versa. No additional charge is made for such unloading. General merchandise and farm products amount- ing to about 14,000 tons are handled each month, while the capacity of incline is 25,000 tons per month. Lumber is transferred from barge to railroad in same manner as merchandise. •. This method of handling freight anpears to be very satisfactory and suitable for present commerce. With the installation of additional incline and enlargement of warehouse when increase of commerce demands, it will be suitable for present methods of river transporta- tion. Three boats receive and discharge freight at this wharf. The present method of handling commerce at wharf is giving general satis- faction and the quantity passing over the wharf is increasing.

Cinder road connects tipple with paved streets of city. RANAWHA RIVER, W. V.A. Location and description.—This river is entirely in the State of West Virginia and is formed by the junction of the New and Gauley Rivers a short distance above Kanawha Falls. It flows about 97 miles in a general northwesterly direction and empties into the Ohio River at Point Pleasant, W. Va. It is improved from its mouth for about 90 miles. Existing project.—The existing project includes eight locks with movable dams and two locks with fixed dams, so as to provide a 6-foot navigable depth from the mouth to a point 90 miles above. General character of commerce.—The commerce carried on this river amounted to 1,277,000 tons during the calendar year 1918, of which 1,092,000 tons was coal and the remainder farm products, general merchandise, sand, gravel, etc. Most of the commerce, except coal, sand, and gravel, is carried by stern-wheel steam packet boats of from 100 to 250 ton capacity. A small amount of such freight is also carried by small boats driven with internal-combustion engines. 1428 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Practically all of the coal shipped is mined along the river and taken to Cincinnati and points below on the Ohio River. The coal is usually carried in tows of 6 to 12 barges, each having a capacity of 600 tons. The towing is done with stern-wheel steamboats. CHARLESTON, W. V.A. A manufacturing city located at the mouth of Elk River on right bank of Kanawha River, 58 miles from its junction with the Ohio River, has a frontage of 2% miles on the Kanawha River and 1 mile on the Elk River. Total shore line, 7 miles. The Kanawha & Michigan Railroad, on right bank, and the Chesapeake & Ohio Rail- way, on left, are sufficiently near the shore to make favorable locations for interchange of commerce between rail and river carriers. How- ever, it is not apparent that the railroad companies favor such inter- change at this time and place. Terminals in harbor consist of wharf, wharf boat, and sand and gravel hoists. The city owns a wharf on right bank at foot of Summer Street, where a 30-foot roadway extends downstream along sloping bank from paved street on top to shore line and is protected on river side by concrete retaining wall, top of which has same grade as roadway. Six feet of water at normal pool (formed by Dam No. 6) at foot of slope permits wharf boat, to lie against wall at all stages from pool to 29 feet above. Macadamized roadway on 7 per cent grade is in poor condition. Length of dockage, 450 feet. No mechanical appliances are available for loading or unloading freight. The city collects $535 per annum for exclusive control of this city frontage and for wharf-boat privileges. - lººr steamboats regularly receive and discharge freight at this WI18. I’I. This wharf could, with reasonable expense, be paved and widened at shore line so as to make it suitable to transfer present commerce. It is, however, neither suitable nor adequate for an amount of traffic justifying the expenditures made on the improvements to the river. Wharf boat.—The Green Wharfage Co. leases from the city of Charleston, W. Va., a Kanawha River frontage of 300 feet, including wharf at foot of Summer Street. Here this company owns and oper- ates a wooden-hull wharf boat, 24 by 140 feet, with cargo box of same dimensions and of 300 tons capacity, for farm products and general merchandise. It has 170 feet available dockage. - This company's charge for handling freight is 3 per cent of freight charge for outgoing and incoming freight, unless special arrangements are made for handling by month or year. The boat is not sufficiently large to accommodate all classes of freight, and it has no warehouses or freight sheds on the bank. The wharfmaster reports that the tonnage at this wharf has increased 5 per cent during the month of April, 1919, and is now 20,000 tons per month. Shippers object to the approach at wharf boat and the difficulty of handling freight from wharf boat to city streets. A warehouse at present location of wharf with working floor higher than the elevation of the street and extending out far enough to permit boats at low stage to unload to elevator in building would be one way of improving present unsatis- factory conditions. e Incline.—Pfaff & Smith Co. owns a river frontage of 500 feet, having a depth of 250 feet, with 250 feet of pile-protected banks, WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1429. located on left bank of Elk River three-fourths mile from its junction with the Kanawha River, upon which it operates a sand and gravel unloading station.

Va., owns a 3-mile front- age on left bank of Kanawha River, 75 miles from mouth, where it operates a coal tipple of timber crib and frame construction. Coal is received at tipple in mine cars where it is dumped onto screens which convey lump coal to counterweighted baskets having two-way dump operated by hand, and from which coal is delivered to barge. Fine coal is delivered to separate barge by chute. Plant not open to the public. Suitable for special purpose used. There is a spur track from the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Co. for shipping coal by rail. Spur track owned by the coal company. No facilities for interchange between river and rail terminals. Ton- nage for the year, 40,000 tons. Capacity, 500 tons per day. Four ice piers, 400 feet above, protect tipple from ice flow. 1434 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The Empire Fuel Co., at Hughes, W. Va., owns 1 mile of river frontage on right bank, 81 miles from mouth of river, where it operates a coal tipple of timber-frame construction, in front of which the company has 200 feet of dredged shore line with depth of 6 feet at normal pool (formed by Dam No. 3). Coal is received in mine cars, from which it is dumped on screen connected to chute that con- veys the coal to barges. . Capacity, 500 tons per day. Not open to the public and suitable for special use of owners. Spur track from Kanawha & Michigan Railway Co. extends to separate tipple for shipping by railway. Track owned by the fuel company. Is not open to public. - There are no existing facilities for transferring from river to rail or rail to water terminal. Unpaved highway leads to rail terminal. Cars are operated by motor. Amount shipped by water in 1918, 29,873 tons. Two ice piers of timber-crib construction, 400 feet above, protect tipple from ice flow. Union Coal Co. owns and operates a tipple of timber crib and frame work on left bank of river 14 miles below Montgomery and 84 miles from mouth of river. Length of available dockage, 400 feet. Depth of water at normal pool (formed by Dam No. 3), 7 feet at foot of sloping bank. Incline track from mine to tipple, Cars oper- ate on incline by gravity. At tipple they are dumped into counter- weighted baskets, having two-way dump operated by hand. Ca- pacity, 300 tons per day. Ice piers constructed of timber cribs filled with stone, 400 feet above, protect this plant from ice flow. Coal from this tipple is also dumped into railway cars on siding from Chesapeake & Ohio Railway tracks. Tipple and mine not in operation at this time. . LITTLE KANAWHA RIVER, W. V.A. Location and description.—This river rises in West Virginia and empties into the Ohio River at Parkersburg, W. Va. Eristing project.—The existing project provides for five locks with fixed dams, to give a navigable i. of 4 feet from the mouth of the river to Creston, a distance of 48 miles. General character of commerce.—The commerce carried on this river during the calendar year 1918 amounted to 31,000 tons, consisting of farm products, general merchandise, oil-well supplies, etc. Owing to the º and gas development above the improved section of the river, there has been a considerable increase in shipment of oils and of oil and gas well supplies during such times as the river is navigable above the improved portion. All transportation on this river is done with small boats driven by internal combustion engines, the boats varying in size from a few tons to about 100 tons capacity. The freight is carried on the boats or more generally in barges in tow. There are no steamboats operated on this river, the last one being taken off several years ago on account of not being able to compete with the boats driven by internal combustion engines. About one- half of the commerce carried on this river is transferred from railroad to river and vice versa at Owensport, the terminus of the Little Ranawha River Railroad (Baltimore & Ohio system) 32 miles above mouth of river. - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1435 PARKERSBURG, W. V.A. (See Ohio River.) A branch line of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad accepts shipments on through bills of lading to river points above Owensport, trans- ferring freight at that point to small gasoline or oil boats. Tramp boat business fluctuates with the activities in the oil and gas develop- ment along the river above-Creston, W. Va. At the present time it is far above normal—about 60 carloads per month, or 1,800 tons of freight, have been transferred from cars to barge at the Baltimore & Ohio River incline and the Parkersburg & Marietta Sand Co.'s hoist. Creston is at the upper limit of the improved portion of the river and at low water this freight has to be transferred to smaller boats, trucks, or wagons. • - . There are no modern appliances for transferring freight along the I’1VeT. - ; § WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSIFIER, FACILITIES OHIO RIVER, STEUBENVILLE, OHIO, TO HUNTINGTON, W. V.A. STEUBENVILLE, OHIO.

R. R. JONES, ASSISTANT ENGINEER, IN CHARGE. OHIO RIVER BETWEEN HUNTINGTON, W. V.A., AND MADISON, IND. This district has charge of the Ohio River general improvement and the construction and maintenance of Locks and Dams Nos. 31, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, and 40. The report covers the section between Huntington, W. Va., and Madison, Ind. Traffic in this section can be grouped under three heads: Tow- boat traffic, packet-boat traffic, and motor-boat traffic. Ferriage, where the river is an obstacle rather than a help, will not be con- sidered. Towboat traffic consists in large part of coal, but also of logs, sand, stone, hay, corn, and miscellaneous freight. The outfit for the work work consists of a towboat to do the pushing and one or more barges, flat boats, or rafts carrying the freight. The carriers are invariably ahead of the towboat, except in the case of log rafts which are gen- erally pulled after the i. which backs downstream. Coal in this section is usually carried in barges about 27 feet wide and 135 feet long, with a draft of 6 to 7 feet, and when fully loaded having not over 2 feet freeboard. These barges hold about 650 tons of coal. The tow, for long-distance travel, consists of from 10 to 26 of these barges. The towboats are stern wheel, from 130 to 200 feet long, 26 to 34 feet wide, 3} to 5 feet draft, operated by two gen- erally simple, sometimes compound, but rarely condensing, double- acting engines set at 90 degrees. Small harbor boats and short-distance towboats handle one or more of these coal barges; and they also handle small sand and stone barges which are decked over and carry the load upon the deck. Brick and other heavy freight are often carried on decked barges somewhat larger than coal barges, or in large barges with modeled hulls, having a length up to 250 feet, a width up to 35 feet, and a draft up to 10 feet. The model barges are built with sides and ends similar to a steam- boat hull. They are wide, long and deep; a single barge may carry as much as 1,000,000 feet of cottonwood lumber. The coal barges are roughly built, with 3-inch bottom, 4 to 8 inch vertical sides, and with ends slightly rounded vertically. The old type of coal boat, which was #º, an elongated box around a coal pile and which depended on the load to prevent its collapse, is now seldom used. Steel barges are coming into use. The towboat traffic on the Ohio River is by far the most impor- tant; fair types of terminals are provided, with some style of mechan- ical appliance for loading and unloading. - 1460 i H. Doc. 652, 56-2. TOWBOAT WITH LOADED COAL BARGES, OHIO RIVER, i H. Doc. 652, 66–2. UNLOADING AND STORING COAL, SEKITAN, OHIO. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1461 By packet traffic is meant the boats that carry freight for all upon their route at an advertised rate and in any quantity. The freight is carried on the steamboat which has no accompanying barges. These boats also carry passengers. . This traffic in this district is nearly all carried on by two companies—the Greene Line, operating above Cincinnati, and the Louisville & Cincinnati Packet Co., oper- ating below Cincinnati. The Greene Line operates five boats, and the Louisville & Cincinnati Packet Co. four boats. . A new line (The Liberty Transit Co.) from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati, with two boats, has just been started. As a rule, any of these boats will stop at any suitable landing for either passengers or freight. At the more important W. the freight for packet boats is handled through a wharf boat, a floating warehouse connected to the land by a driveway. The grade from this wharf boat to the top of the bank is usually steep and the road surface poorly or indifferently paved. The freight is carried from wharf boat to steamboat, and vice versa, on the shoulders of men or in small two-wheeled trucks. This is very inefficient and calls for the carrying of a large crew of freight carriers by the packets. - otor boats in this district vary in size from the small 16-foot launch to those capable of carrying 60 tons of freight, or of pushing a 100-ton barge. They are very numerous and are engaged in the pleasure, packet, and towboat trades. The project in this district calls for a system of dams to maintain at all times a navigable depth of 9 feet, but it is not yet completed, so that the towboat traffic spoken of above is prevented from move- ment about 50 per cent of the time and the packet traffic is very much impeded. The one river terminal of importance in this district is Cincinnati Harbor. The Ashland–Ironton and Portsmouth harbors may develop considerable importance if river traffic is revived; but as the sugges- tion as to better terminal facilities will apply also to those localities, only Cincinnati will be considered in this report. The Cincinnati Harbor, considered as a terminal, extends from the Crane Co.'s derrick for unloading logs from the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad cars into the river, opposite Coney Island, to the Marmet- Halm Coal Co.'s elevator at North Bend, Ohio, a distance of 23 miles on the Ohio River. ... It also extends for several miles up the Licking River. Opposite Cincinnati are , the Kentucky municipalities of Dayton, Bellevue, Newport, Covington, and Ludlow, All of the harbor is within the pool of Dam No. 37, except 3 miles at the lower end, but in the lower 3 miles are the important coal elevators of the Marmet-Halm Co. at North Bend, and the Island Creek Coal Co. at Sekitan, Ohio. A good depth of water at all of the landings in Cin- cinnati above Dam No. 37 is assured, but in low water periods only light-draft boats can travel below Dam No. 37. There is plenty of room to turn boats around in the Ohio River, but as a rule steam- boats must back out of the Licking River. Except the Licking, there are no creeks or inlets in which a boat may be harbored at pool stages. There are no publicly owned ice piers within this harbor. There are two sets of ice piers opposite the mouth of the Little Miami which are owned by one of the coal companies. Another set on the Ohio shore, a short distance below, has fallen into decay and is practically useless. One set of piers at Sekitan, owned by the Island Creek Coal * 1462 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Co., was but partially filled with stone and was destroyed by the ice in February, 1918. Ice has always been a great menace in the Cincinnati Harbor, and the losses from this source have been very great. Three crib dikes at and above Coney Island were built with the idea that they would break up ice. In certain river conditions these are of some benefit: at other times they are rather a detriment. The numerous bridge piers also help to some extent. A revival of river traffic will call for more adequate protection from ice. The coal elevators are by far the most important and best equipped of the river terminals. Of these there are now 10 in the Cincinnati Harbor in active operation; 3 of these are on the Ohio side and 4 on the Kentucky side of the Ohio River, and 3 in the Licking River. There are a number of others that could easily be put into operation. There are also 2 elevators of the same type used exclusively for sand and gravel. All of these elevators, except one on the Kentucky shore at Bellevue, and another below Constance, Ky., have facilities for loading into railroad cars and as a rule have private sidings for this purpose. The coal elevator is usually constructed with the following equip- ment: (a) One or more coal diggers. These are special types of der- rick boats equipped with an orange-peel-grab bucket and winches for moving the coal barge up and down past the stationary digger while it is being unloaded. (b) A landing float with hopper under which the elevator cars can run. The coal digger dumps into these hoppers. The float has an adjustable apron over which the elevator cars can run to the incline tracks. (c) neline tracks up the bank to the ele- vator building. There are generally two of the tracks at each in- cline and an empty car descends and helps pull up the loaded car. (d) The elevator building with hoisting machinery, small bins, and hoppers for loading into wagons, and large bins and hoppers for loading into railroad cars. (e) Elevated side track from which the coal is dumped into storage piles. Before the war the field cost of transferring coal from barges to railroad cars was given at 10 cents per ton at one elevator and 16 cents at another. The above method of handling coal is quite efficient. Formerly a large amount of coal was transferred from the river to railroad cars. The amount is now much less, as the river men claim discriminatory railroad rates make the transportation of coal by river impracticable. Two elevators of this type in Cincinnati, the Hall elevator at the foot of Lawrence Street, and the Ware elevator below Baymiller Street, handle sand and gravel almost exclusively. On the derrick boat, however, a clamshell bucket is used. - in addition, there are incline tracks at the Covington and two Cincinnati pump stations (water works), and the Andrews Steel Co.'s plant, intended only for use for the coal supply for these plants. The coal elevators are all privately owned and can not be called public in any sense. At practically all of them coal is for sale to the public, however. None offer publicly to hoist coal, sand, stone, or other freight for all applicants, but as a matter of fact it is probable that any person having a considerable amount of freight to handle would, without trouble, find an elevator to do the work. Several of the owners of towboats and barges advertise to do general towing, but none of them have publie freight terminals. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1463 The Crane Lumber Co. has opposite Coney Tsland (above Cincin- nati), a large derrick for unloading logs from railroad cars, and in the eastern end of Cincinnati, 3 incline tracks equipped with tram cars for hoisting the logs to the mill. . The Newport Rolling Mill has a large crane at its Licking River plant. This is used for unloading coal from barges, and if desired, this coal could be loaded into railroad cars. This is a fairly efficient method. There are several landings equipped with hoisting engines and rope for helping teams to the top of the bank. This is done where the amount handled is so small that it does not pay to build and keep up an elevator. At Ludlow, Ky., there is a track from the Cincinnati Southern Railroad down to the water's edge, so that railroad cars could be loaded directly from boats. The lower end of this track is now re- moved and no part of it is in use. Within this harbor there are three public landings in Cincinnati, One in Newport, and one in Covington; also street ends at the river and several public parks that could be utilized as landings by the public. Of these, the public landing at Newport is used to a small extent, the one at Covington is practically unused, and only one of these at Cincinnati is utilized to any extent. This is popularly known as ‘‘The Public Landing,” and extends from Walnut Street to Broadway, a length of 860 feet. The landing is paved from about the 40-foot stage up with bowlders, and below this, formerly had a kind of Tel- ford pavement. Most of the overlying small stone has been washed away, leaving the rough paving at the bottom, and this paving is broken up in many places. The city of Cincinnati has very recently allotted $175,000 for improving this landing. Plans are not yet pre- pared by the city engineer, but it has been reported by the river men that goods roads down the river bank rather than the paving of the slope is to be expected. ^. The river front at the public landing is nearly all taken up by wharf boats for receiving package freight from the packet boats. These are the Coney sland wharf boat, 263 feet long and ſ 0 feet wide; the Creen Line wharf boat, : 00 feet long by 40 feet wide, and the Louisville & Cincinnati Packet Co.'s wharf boat, 300 feet long by 60 feet wide. These wharf boats have adjustable aprons to allow wagons and trucks to drive on to them. The deck houses are merely large open sheds with no mechanical appliances for handling freight. There are no divisions into separate bins for different localities. There are few doors on the river side of these wharf boats and it is a usual thing for laborers to carry freight from the stern of the steamer, perhaps 200 feet to the gangplank at the bow, and then to carry it back into the wharf boat as much as 100 feet. There are several other features that make this method of doing business very inefficient. The grade of the river bank is steep, only half as in uch can be hauled up the grade as on the ordinary streets. The unloading is done by man power instead of mechanical power. The freight must be picked up and set down several times. There is no method by which the freight can be loaded directly on wagons or trucks. The freight must be hurriedly unloaded from the boat so that the latter will not be in port too long. This makes the employment of a large force for a short time necessary. Due to absence of mechanical appliances, the freight can not be piled up but must occupy a great 1464 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. floor space. There is no opportunity for a direct connection from the river to the railroad. A sidetrack is at the top of the grade, but even at high stages of the river the wharf boat as constructed would be a barrier between river and rail traffic. The city of Cincinnati charges wharf boat owners half a cent per day for each front foot occupied by the wharf boat. There is no additional charge for landing steamboats at the wharf boat. The regular packet lines have each their own wharf boat or arrangement, and it is not run as a separate source of revenue. In other towns where wharf boats are not owned by the packet lines a charge of 3 cents per hundred weight on both incoming and outgoing freight is about the average. In addition to this, the actual cost of handling the freight from wharf boat to boat and vice versa is not far from 50 cents a ton. There are no special facilities in the Cincinnati harbor for coaling packets. As a rule, a small barge is brought alongside the packet and coal is carried aboard by wheelbarrows. A towboat generally carries with it a small barge having on board the fuel supply. A chute for easily coaling packet boats is used at some landings in the Ohio River and appears to be a valuable appliance. There was up, to 10 years ago, a river and rail transfer a short distance below the Mill Creek. This was an incline track down the bank and running out on a trestle with an adjustable cradle. A wharf boat was moored outside this cradle but it could be moved so that freight could be loaded directly into cars. This was done away with at the time when the railroads ceased prorating with the boats. This method of transfer, if further amplified by a number of track barges which can be tied alongside a packet or barge, is a fairly efficient one, and one which can be adapted to mechanical handling of freight from barges. As long as packet boats are built in the present manner it is the best that can be hoped for. This plan is very successfully used for river and rail transfer at Joppa, Brook- port, Evansville, and New Albany and needs but little to adapt it to wagon and motor-truck transfer. The cost of such an outfit can be taken as follows without any allowance for river frontage: Wharf boat, reinforced concrete hull . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $100,000 6-track barge - - - - - - - ------------------------------ * - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 60,000 2 railroad tracks, each 1,200 feet long. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25,000 Cradle---------------------------------------------------------------- 5,000 Trestle---------------------------------------------------------------- 13, 500 2 roadways, 27 feet wide, 1,200 feet long, and granite paved. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20,000 2 derrick boats---------------------------------------------------------- 30,000 Hoist for assisting wagons, etc.----------------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4,000 2 switching locomotives.----------------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20,000 30 piers, 50 cubic yards each, at $15. . . . . . . . . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 32, 500 1 harbor boat----------------------------------------------------------. 50,000 Total------------------------------------------------------------ 360,000 Other movable wharf boats can be added, if needed. This type of terminal can be modified, for a small town, to cost as little as $25,000. Another type which has been proposed for Cincinnati is far more imposing and more comfortable looking, but will cost more to build and to handle freight when built. . This type is, in brief, a solid vertical wall with elevator, etc., and a warehouse built at the top. Railroad tracks are constructed to the land side of the warehouse. The cost is estimated at $1,500,000. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1465 Still another type of terminal that has been suggested presupposes that the old Miami & Erie Canal will be reconstructed and connected with the Ohio River through Mill Creek Valley instead of following the old route, which in now blocked by the Pennsylvania Railroad. This would permit the construction of a basin kept at constant level by locks, upon which terminal for river, canal, and rail could be constructed. Such terminal could be designed to have artistic merit as well as utility, something nearly impossible of accomplish- ment under present conditions. The late T. J. Hall had a plan for general freight handling by which he hoped to compete favorably with railroads within a distance of 15 miles from his river terminals. His plan called for motor trucks for collecting and delivering freight to river ports, a wharf boat at Cincinnati, and elevating platform on which the motor trucks could be hoisted to the top of the bank. He was particularly interested in the development of the sand and gravel business in this way, but thought that a large general freight business could be developed also. His principal point was that the motor trucks, in connection with river transportation, would overcome the advantage the railroads have in being able to place side tracks. There is very little interest in Cincinnati in the construction of municipally owned water terminals. There is, however, quite an interest shown in the construction of adequate railroad terminals and a fairly strong sentiment to have these municipally owned, and it would probably not be difficult to have the river terminal included with the rail. The city of Cincinnati owns a steam railroad line and it has proven a good investment. The success of this one venture may incline the ublic more favorably toward other similar ventures by the city. H. fact that the city is now to expend $175,000 on the public landing at a time when the city expenses far outrun the revenues is encouraging. # WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. oñº yº, CATLETTSBURG, KY.

SECOND CINCINNATI, OHIO, DISTRICT. MR. B. F. THOMAS, ASSISTANT ENGINEER IN CHARGE. This district comprises the following rivers: Muskingum River, Ohio; Big Sandy River, W. Va. and Ky.; and Kentucky River, Ky. MUSKINGUM RIVER, OHIO. The Muskingum River improvements consist of 11 locks and dams and 4 short canals, furnishing slack-water over a distance of 91 miles, from Marietta to Dresden, Ohio, with a minimum depth of 5.5 feet. The commerce is miscellaneous in character, consisting of sand, gravel, farm products, brick, lumber, and inbound coal. The quantity is small, ranging from 60,000 to 125,000 tons and having a value of about $1,000,000 per annum. The largest vessel which can be accommodated by the locks is about 35.5 by 160 feet over all. Very few steam or gasoline boats ply the river. The terminal and transfer facilities consist of a wharf boat in the Ohio River at the mouth of the Muskingum and a number of small warehouses at various villages or landings along the stream. These are all privately owned. There are also several paved and unpaved landings con- necting with public highways and streets of municipalities. These facilities are adequate for present commerce, and, so far as can be seen, for that of the future. There are charges for use of the wharf boat, but none, so far as known, for the warehouses and wharves. There is practically no public interest in improving the facilities for handling or caring for freight or for utilizing navigation facilities for commerce. There are no physical connections or arrangements for interchange of traffic between rail and river lines. BIG SANDY RIVER, W. VA, AND KY. The Big Sandy River improvements comprise 5 locks and movable dams, furnishing a depth of 6 feet over a distance of 56 miles from Catlettsburg, # ., to Richardson, Ky., on the Levisa Fork, and Webb, W. Va., on Tug Fork. The commerce is largely of saw logs, crossties, and telegraph poles, with a small amount of scrap iron, farm products, and general merchandise. The quantity amounts to from 100,000 to 175,000 tons, valued at from $1,000,000 to $1,700,— 000 per annum. The largest vessel which can be passed through the locks is about 52 feet beam by 160 feet in length. There are no regular steamboats running, but during the rafting season many boats, both steam and gasoline, work in the lower part of the river. The terminal and transfer facilities consist of a wharf boat in the Ohio River at the mouth of the Big Sandy and a few small paved and unpaved landings at points along the stream. The wharf boat is privately owned, and its presence is due to the Ohio River traffic, as there is very little reshipment for up Sandy points. Except for the transfer of crossties there is no connection between rail and river. 1490 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1491 KENTUCKY RIVER, KY, The Kentucky River improvements comprise 14 locks and dams, providing a depth of 5.5 feet over a distance of about 260 miles, from Carrollton to above Beattyville, Ky. The commerce up to within the past 18 months has consisted principally of saw logs, ties, inbound coal, and miscellaneous merchandise. Recently there has been considerable development in outbound coal and crude oil, the latter particularly bidding fair to become quite a leading factor. The oil is towed in compartment barges in bulk in lots of from 7,000 to 10,000 barrels. The quantity of commerce has been about 200,000 tons, having a value of about $2,500,000, but will greatly exceed that in the future. The largest vessel which can navigate the entire river is about 38 feet beam by 145 feet long. A number of steam towboats ply regularly in towing oil and coal, and there are a few gasoline boats doing a small local business. The terminal and transfer facilities consist of a wharf boat in the Ohio River at the mouth of the Kentucky and of numerous small and poorly kept warehouses at landings and towns along the stream. In addition to these are a number of unloading terminals for coal for local supply and one oil-loading and two coal-loading terminals, besides terminals for handling crossties and saw logs. All these facilities are ample for the present business. Brief descriptions of typical terminals are as follows: FRANKFORT, KY. Coal-unloading terminals—At Frankfort, Ky., the terminal used for handling river coal from barges to storage by the Frankfort - Elevator Coal Co. is practically the same as used along the Ohio River at all the larger cities. The coal is taken directly from the barges by an orange-peel bucket handled by a typical “coal-digger” boat with necessary hopper float. The “digger” is a derrick boat equipped with a swinging boom and hoisting engine for handling the orange peel, winches for moving the barges, siphons for pumping boats, etc. . The orange eel dumps its charges of coal into a hopper which holds several his for the incline cars. An incline track from the river to the delivery bin on top of the bank carries the coal in bottom-dump cars from the hopper to the storage bins or piles. This incline is operated by its own engine mounted on the coal bins. In addition to the storage capacity of the bins (about 100 tons, and from which wagons or trucks are loaded from chutes without further handling) additional storage in piles exposed to the weather is provided by extensive trestlework leading from the head of the incline to various parts of the yard. There has been stored at one time on this yard 17,100 tons, which is about its capacity. Approximately 40 tons of coal per hour can be unloaded and stored at this yard. te In connection with the terminal the company operates its own tow- boats and fleet of barges in bringing coal from its mine near Beatty- ville. WHITE ASH, KY. Coal-loading terminal.—The Beattyville Co.'s coal-loading terminal at White Ash, near Beattyville, is the largest of its kind along the ITVer. 1492 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The first incline built, and still used, is essentially a double-track gravity incline from the coal level on the bank to a tipple and chute at the river. Only mine-run coal can be loaded into barges at this point. The mine-run cars, just as they come from the mines, are lowered to the edge of the water, where the goal is automatically dumped into a short chute which distributes it in the barges, the loaded car pulling the empty one up the hill. A tipple essentially the same as this is in use by the Merritt Coal Co., above Beattyville, in the north fork of Kentucky River. The Beattyville Co. has recently completed and put into service a more elaborate structure for screening the coal. This consists of a bin on the river bank the top of which is at the coal level and carries tracks, tipples, and screens. This bin is of sufficient clearance above the ground to permit loading the lump goal and screenings into cars j are pushed to a tipple and chute which dumps the coal directly into the barges as in the type first mentioned. The capacity of this terminal is not known, as its limit has not been reached; but it has handled as much as 300 tons in 10 hours. BEATTYVILLE, KY. Oil-loading terminal.—On the outskirts of Beattyville, Ky., the Aetna Refining Co. has its terminal for storing crude oil and loading the same into carriers for either rail or water transportation. The storage consists of 2 sheet-steel tanks of 10,000 barrels capacity, each located between the Louisville & Nashville tracks and the top of the bank of Kentucky River. The oil is delivered into the tanks directly by pipe line from the nearby fields. A line of 6-inch pipe leads from the tanks down the river bank to convenient points for attaching connections to reach the various com- partments of the barges. In the river is maintained a small boat to carry the few necessary ipe connections and for convenience in handling barges during the oading, which is very rapid. The barges used are standard Kanawha River wooden coal barges which have been divided by bulkheads into 8 compartments and decked flush with the gunwale tops. The gunwale seams are calked from both sides, stripped with canvas on the inside and with tin on the outside. The barges carry 2,500 barrels each when loaded to 5-foot draft, and three of them form the ordinary tow. west IRVINE, KY. Railroad-tie loading terminal.—There are a number of hoists along the river for interchange of traffic between river and railroad, of which the hoist owned by the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Co. at West Irvine, Ky., is typical. - The ties. are brought from the upper river to the site in rafts and are here hoisted to the top of the bank and loaded on railway cars for distribution. | The plant consists, essentially of a trestle about 100 feet long beside a siding from the railroad; an incline from trestle to the river; a heavy car for carrying the ties up the bank, and an engine for hoist- ing it. ** WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1493 The trestle is of convenient height for loading ties into Gars, with minimum labor. The track on the top of this trestle (which has a slight grade toward the river) is in continuation of the incline and permits travel of the car from the river to extreme end of the trestle. Outside of, and parallel to, each rail, are built heavy timber skids at height just above the floor of the car, so as to lift the load of ties free from the car and permit its return to the river for another load with- out handwork or waiting. From the skids the ties are sorted into grades and loaded directly . into cars. - * The capacity of the hoist is very great, but is limited by the avail- able length of trestle and sidetrack for cars. Terminal for handling saw logs.--Typical of a considerable number of sawmill log elevators along the river, is that of the Mobray & Rob- inson Co. at West Irvine. The hoist consists of a timber trough extending from under water in the river to the skidway inside the mill. In the center of the trough runs an endless chain with frequent special links for holding the logs and dragging them up the incline and into the mill. - The logs are brought from the upper river in rafts. At the site, the logs are individually floated to the elevator, where the special chain links attach themselves, pull the log up the hill, and auto- matically release the logs at the selected point. The capacity is considerably in excess of 75,000 b. m. feet per day of 10 hours. * WATER, TIERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. MUSKINGUM RIVER, OHIO. MARIETTA, OHIO. MARIETTA, OHIO. Lowei L, ohio.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. LOUISVILLE, KY., DISTRICT. MR. W. H. McALPINE, ASSISTANT ENGINEER IN CHARGE. The several waterways under the charge of this office are as follows: Ohio River below Madison, ºnd.; Green River, Ky.; Barren River, Ky., Rough River, Ky.; and Wabash River, Tnd. and Tll. These will be taken up and discussed separately in the order just mentioned. OHIO RIVER BELOW MADISON, IND. . This section of the Ohio River is included in the general project for the improvement of the river between Pittsburgh, Pa., and Cairo, ll., by the construction of locks and movable dams so as to provide a minimum channel depth of 9 feet in the pools formed thereby. The commerce of the entire river during several past years is as follows: Short tons. Value. Passengers.

Tt is believed that the decline in shipment of coal South has been due largely to the fact that this coal has been required for home industries to meet the greater activities on account of war conditions. However, the de- velopment of water transportation in the lower part of the Ohio River on a large scale need not be expected until the completion of the 9-foot project in this part of the river has reached a more advanced stage. The disadvantage to navigation of several months of low water is too great to warrant the expenditure of large sums for trans- portation lines or terminal facilities until the 9-foot stage is realized, or more nearly completed. Next in importance to securing an ade- quate navigable depth is the construction of proper terminal facilities 1501 1502 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. providing physical connection between rail and water carriers. Tt is believed that the public interest has been sufficiently aroused as to the necessity for adequate public water terminals and that the con- struction of such terminals by the municipalities will be very gen- erally undertaken as the progress of the improvement of the Ohio River in this section will warrant such expenditures. At the present time, freight is carried either in barges towed by stern-wheeled towboats or on self-propelled packet boats. The larger towboats and packets are operated by steam, while the smaller boats are provided with oil or gasoline engines. " n size the vessels vary from small gasoline boats to packets and towboats with a beam of about 40 feet and a length of 250 feet or more. The principal localities of commercial importance are: Jeffersonville, Tnd.: Louis- ville, Ky.; New Albany, Ind.; Owensboro, Ky.; Evansville, nd.; Henderson, Ky.; Paducah, Ky. Discussion of these in the same order follows: Jeffersonville, Ind., located on pool of Dam No. 41, 600.4 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., and opposite Louisville, IXy., has a population of about 12,000. The only terminal facility at this city is a small wood float with cabin, owned by the Louisville & Jeffersonville Ferry Co., and used as a landing for passengers and traffic using the ferry. This float is old and dilapidated and is not considered adequate for even its present use. Jeffersonville in recent years, at least, has made but little use of the river in shipping freight. n view of the fact that there is a very considerable movement of traffic and passengers be- tween that city and Louisville, Ky., the present facilities are deemed inadequate. It is believed that a publicly owned wharf boat with a suitable roadway thereto is needed. The city of "effersonville, so far as can be learned, has taken no steps toward establishing and con- trolling a suitable wharf and facilities for receiving and forwarding freight. On account of the close proximity to Louisville markets, a large part of the freight is hauled directly on trucks by ferry from Louisville, and it seems doubtful whether at the present time the ex- pense of providing for interchange of freight between rail and water carrier would be justified. e Louisville, Ky., located on pool of Dam No. 41, 601.4 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., has a population of about 275,000, and, next tº Pittsburgh and Cincinnati, is the largest city on the Ohio River. The privately owned facilities for handling sand and gravel pumped from the river, and coal delivered in barges, are adequate, and generally consist of floating derricks with clamshell buckets which load directly into small cars hauled up an incline by cable and automatically dumped into bins or directly into rail cars. The city of Lºri isville has an excellent paved wharf about 2,300 feet long between First and Sixth Streets. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight. At this wharf there are two wharf boats owned by the Louis- ville and Cincinnati Packet Co., and the Lo isville and Evansville Packet Co., respectively. Neither of the wharf boats has any mechan- ical appliances for handling freight: thero is also a landing float of the Louisville & Jeffersonville Ferry Co. The city charges the above companies an annual rental for use of the wharf and also charges boats using the wharf itself at the rate of $2 for the first day and $1 thereafter. In addition to the above, the United States owns a siding leading from the tracks of the Kentucky & Indiana Terminal Rail- s WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1503 way, at Eighteenth Street, down the embankment and along about 400 feet of the south wall of the Louisville and Portland Canal, on which there may be a direct interchange from boats to cars, or from the car to the boat. It is much used for shipping sand and gravel, and in receiving coal, lumber, cement, and other materials which are transferred directly from the car to boat by a derrick boat. This terminal is not open to prºblic use, but when not in use by the Engineer Department permission is usually granted to those who desire to use it, no charge being made for the privilege. During the past two years the requests for use of this siding have been numerous and it ‘has been in use to the limit of its capacity. A publicly owned ter- minal with adequate warehouses is urgently needed at this city, and it should be equipped with modern appliances for handling freight. The terminal . provide proper facilities for transfer of freight between the water carriers and the warehouses and the rail cars. Satisfactory results have been obtained in the transfer of freight at the double track incline at Joppa, Ill., which is said to handle 75 cars a day with a single switch engine. Therefore there is submitted herewith a sketch entitled “Typical Plan of Terminal Warehouse and Incline,” which provides a warehouse as well as physical connection between rail and water carrier, and is believed to fulfill the require- ments for a public terminal for points located on a navigable stream with fluctuations in the water stage and is less expensive than loading wharves or platforms constructed above high water. The incline is double tracked on a 3% per cent grade and the track barge is shown to hold a maximum of 10 cars in addition to those which may be placed on the cradle. Articles which can be handled with a derrick may be transferred directly from barge to car or vice versa with a derrick boat. Articles to be loaded on box cars can be conveniently loaded by hand. River shipments arriving at the track barge may be loaded on cars to be switched to local plants or to the main line to complete the journey by rail, or the freight may be loaded on small cars and hauled to the warehouse for reshipment or delivery. The warehouse shown is furnished with overhead traveling crane. The type suggested is quite flexible and may be readily modified to slit special Conditions and is considered adequate for the existing and prospective commerce of the average inland waterway city for some time to come. During the past year much interest has been evidenced in proposals for providing better and more adequate terminal accommodations. The mayor of the city, board of trade, chairman of the board of public works, have openly expressed their approval of steps taken in the matter and concur in approving necessary expenditures, but the type of terminal has not been decided upon. New Albany, Ind., has a population of about 21,000, is located on pool of dam No. 43, 604.9 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., and opposite the lower part of Louisville, Ky. The city of New Albany owns a paved wharf 900 feet long, but there are no warehouses, appliances for handling freight, nor are there any accommodations for protection of freight from weather. There is no physical rail connection at this wharf. There are several privately owned inclines for handling coal, sand and gravel, etc., from boats to wagons, tºucks or rail cars, or for storage. It is believed that there is need of a publicly owned wharf- boat with suitable roads thereto. It seems probable that as the Ohio 1504 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. River improvement is completed the cost of providing physical con- nections with the railroads will be justified. This city has taken no steps to improve present conditions. wensboro, Ky., is a city of about 18,000, located 751.5 miles below Pittsburgh on proposed pool No. 47. This city owns a paved wharf 300 feet long, which is too steep and is in poor condition. There is at present tied up at this landing a small wharf boat, about 20 by 70 feet, owned by the Crescent Navigation Co. These facilities are not considered adequate for properly handling general freight, and a publicly owned wharf boat with a suitable roadway is needed. When the improvement of the Ohio River in this vicinity is accom- plished, it is believed that a railroad incline to permit an interchange of freight from water carriers to rail cars will be justified. Dittle interest has been shown in the improvement of the terminal facilities. Several privately owned chain conveyors, and inclines for handling grain, sand, gravel, coal, etc., exist and these have switch connections with the Illinois Central Railway and Louisville & Nashville Rail- j ſhee facilities are considered satisfactory for the purpose in- tended. - Evansville, Ind., has a population of about 75,000, and is located 787 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., on pool of Dam No. 48. The city has about 900 feet of paved wharf for public use, but there are no publicly owned wharf boats or other publicly owned terminal facilities. The privately owned terminal facilities consist of the following: A wharf boat, owned by the Evansville & Bowling Green Packet Co.; an incline track along the river for handling grain, ties, etc., owned by the Illinois Central Railroad Co., and for the use of which a charge of $3 per car is made if destined for other lines, $6.50 if delivery is to be made within the city switching limits, and no charge if car is routed Over this company's main lines; an industrial incline for handling sand and gravel, owned by the Bedford & Nugent Co., but not available for public use; and an incline owned by the Louisville & Nashville Railway for handling ties, grain, etc., for the use of which a charge is made of $3 per car if delivered to other lines in the city, $4 per car if delivered within city switching limits, and no charge when routed over its own lines. Two privately owned stationary derricks, not available for public use, are also located on the river front and each has a rail connection. In addition to being an important Ohio River city, Evansville has always been the principal terminal point of the . . regular packet line on the Green and Barren Rivers, and also for many of the independent packets and towboats operating on those rivers. To facilitate handling freight there is needed at this locality a con- Venient terminal with physical rail connection. It is believed that as Soon as the early completion of the 9-foot stage becomes apparent, the city will take the necessary steps to provide an adequate public terminal. - Henderson, Ky. (population, 11,452), located 798 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., on pool of Dam No. 48. The city owns a jºi wharf about 200 feet long in fair condition but with steep grade and without mechanical appliances for handling freight or public wharf boat. No charge of any kind is made for the use of the wharf. The Evansville & Paducah Packet Co. maintains a wharf boat at this locality but it is not open to general use, is not equipped with mechanical appliances for handling freight, and has no rail H. Doc, 652, 66-2, DERRICK UNLOADING SAND AND GRAVEL, EVANSVILLE, IND, 1504 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1505 connection. The Louisville & Nashville Railway has a wharf boat here for handling grain in sacks from barges to cars. It is equipped with chain conveyor and is connected by incline and switch to the company's tracks. The charge for its use is $3.50 per car delivered within the city limits, no charge being made when car is routed over main line. As the improvement of the Ohio River nears completion, a publicly owned terminal with rail connections will be needed. The city has expressed a willingness to provide proper terminals as conditions will warrant such action. Paducah, Ky. (population, 22,760), is located 924.1 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., on proposed pool No. 53 and at the mouth of Ten- nessee River. The city owns a paved wharf about 962 feet long, in good condition, connected with the city streets but without any mechanical appliances or direct rail connections. A charge of from $1 to $4 per day is made to steamboats and of $1.50 per day to gas- oline boats. A wharf boat is owned and operated by the Paducah Wharfboat Co. Wharfage is included in the shipping charges. The boat has no appliances for handling freight and no rail connection. There are also along the water front several privately owned in- clines and derricks which provide physical rail connections. A publicly owned terminal is needed with warehouse and provision for interchange of freight from rail to water carrier. The Paducah Board of Trade has a committee which is now considering the erec- tion of a water terminal. GREEN AND BARREN RIVERS, KY. Green River empties into the Ohio River at a point about 779 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., or about 9 miles above Evansville, Ind. Barren River is a tributary of Green River and joins that stream just above Lock No. 4, Green River, Ky. . These two rivers are con- sidered together for the réason that they have, since their improve- ment by the State of Kentucky in 1835–1841, formed a continuous waterway from Evansville, Ind., on the Ohio River to Bowling Green, Ky. Since the United States assumed the control of the State improvements, the operation and care of the system has been provided for under one project. - The project now includes six locks and fixed dams on Green River and one lock on Barren River. The head of slackwater navigation on Green River is at Mammoth Cave, Ky., 196 miles from the mouth of the river. The head of slackwater navigation on Barren River is at Bowling Green, Ky., 29% miles from the mouth of that river and 1794 miles above the mouth of Green River. The minimum depth over miter sills with normal pools is 4.9 feet and the locks will accom- modate boats with not exceeding 35-foot beam and 137.5 feet length over all. No extension of the project is now under consideration or proposed. The commerce passing Lock No. 1, during the calendar year 1917, amounted to 252,841 tons, valued at $6,023,649. This commerce consisted of farm and forest products, together with supplies and merchandise handled between the two principal terminals, viz, Bowl- ing Green, Ky., and Evansville, Ind. Coal also is shipped in con- siderable quantity and the rock asphalt industry above Lock No. 5, Green River, ships from 3,000 to 10,000 tons per annum. Timber, 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—95 1506 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. railroad ties, sand, and gravel, and stone constitute the largest per- centage of freight. There are no large towns on the slackwater por- tions of these rivers. The small towns are not important commer- cial centers and have no public river terminals beyond mere landing places, and except Spottsville, Livermore, Rockport, and Bowling Green, have no rail connections. There are many private land- ings, as for example, the coal tipples located along the river, the asphalt mines, quarries, lumber yards, etc. . The Louisville & Nash- ville Railway crosses the Green River at Livermore and the Illinois Central Railway at Rockport, Ky., but neither of these towns has sufficient present or prospective commerce to justify suggesting joint rail and river terminals. Bowling Green, Ky., at the head of slackwater navigation on Barren River, is the principal town on the system. Here the city owns a paved wharf with minimum depth of water of about 5 feet, but there are no mechanical appli- ances or physical rail connections. There are two privately owned derricks with rail connections by spurs to the Louisville & Nash- ville Railway, both of which are availiable for hire at reasonable rates. The Evansville & Bowling Green Packet Co. owns a ware- house here, 40 by 80 feet, in good condition, but without mechanical appliances and physical rail connection." Bowling Green, Ky., being situated only about 15 miles above Lock No. 1, Barren River, the quantity of commerce passing that lock affords an excellent index to the river traffic to and from that city. In the calendar year 1917, this commerce amounted to 30,865 tons. - - It is apparent that no extensive joint, publicly owned terminals with rail connections would be justified at present and the prospects do not indicate that such will be essential in the near future. For Bowling Green, Ky., a publicly owned, suitably equipped wharfboat, capable of readily handling the ordinary merchantable commodities, both heavy and light, is about all that existing and prospective com- merce could reasonably expect. For the minor towns, way stations, and private landing points nothing additional is suggested. This conclusion is based on practice that has obtained on these rivers many years, and for the reason that no marked increase in commerce is expected in the near future. - ROUGH RIVER, This is a small tributary of Green River, emptying into Pool No. 2, at Livermore, Ky., which is located 71.1 miles above the mouth of Green River. The project provided for a lock and dam about 8 miles above the mouth of the river so as to afford a pool to Hartford, Ky., located 29% miles above the mouth of the river. The river is narrow and the lock small, its width being 27 feet and length 125 feet with minimum depth on miter sill, 4.9 feet. The commerce passing through the lock during the calendar year 1917 amounted to 12,701 tons. . . No terminal facilities other than the ordinary landings are needed to meet the present or prospective requirements of commerce on this stream. The towns of Hartford and Livermore, the only ones situated on the stream, are served by rail and the products and requirements of the intervening agricultural territory are not great enough to warrant provision for publicly owned, improved terminals. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1507 WABASH RIVER, IND. AND ILL. Wabash River empties into the Ohio River about 840 miles below Pittsburgh, Pa., or about 9 miles above Shawneetown, Ill. The R.” of the river that has been under improvement is between erre Haute, Ind., and the mouth, a distance by river of 214 miles. This project, undertaken in 1872, proposed the improvement by Snagging and dredging, constructing a new lock and repairing the dam at Grand Rapids; closing the New Harmony cut-off; similar work at other points, and levee work at Grayville, Ill. The only permanent improvement remaining in the river is the lock and dam at Grand Rapids, about 95 miles above the mouth, and about 2% miles above Mount Carmel, Ill., the pool of which dam extends upstream about 12 miles. The dimensions of the lock chamber are 52 by 214 feet; the minimum depth on lower miter sill at low water is 3.2 feet. No work of improvement has been in progress for many years, the lock and dam being the only work maintained and operated. Commerce through the lock during the calendar year 1917 amounted to 346 tons. No statistics of commerce on the open parts of the river are ob- tainable. However, it is known that several small boats have made irregular trips to move farm products, and sand and gravel. A com- prehensive survey of the river between Terre Haute and the mouth was made and report thereof published in House Document No. 1001, Sixty-third Congress, second session, in which it was reported “That the improvement by the United States of the Wabash River from its mouth to Terre Haute, or to Mount Carmel, is not deemed advisable at the present time.” Since the date of this report, 1914, no develop- ments have occurred to cause a modification of those views. The river is practically paralleled by railways on both sides of the stream and at such short distances therefrom that the agricultural and forest º now have about as easy an outlet by rail as i. would ave by river even if it were improved and made a dependable trans- portation facility. There are no publicly owned terminal facilities except about 1,200 feet of river front owned by the city of Vincennes, Ind., and a like quantity owned by the municipality of Mount Carmel, Ill. However, these and the ordinary bank landings appear to be adequate for existing and prospective traffic. # WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSIFER FACILITIES. OHIO RIVER, BELOW MADISQN, IND.

GRAND MARAIS, MINN. The harbor at Grand Marais, Minn., is situated on the north shore of Lake Superior, 106 miles northeasterly from Duluth. (See United States Lake Survey Chart No. 9, Lake Superior.) It is a bay one- half mile long and one-fourth mile wide, with a natural opening on the lake side of 1,035 feet, reduced by breakwaters to 480 feet, and with an area of 61 acres. The project for improvement provides for breakwaters to narrow the natural entrance and for dredging an area of 26 acres to a depth of 16 feet at mean low water. The harbor has no rail connections and the commerce is small and local in character. It is used mostly as a refuge for vessels plying the north shore of Lake Superior. The vessels using the harbor are of the smaller class of lake vessels, engaged in local traffic or in the łº, and pulpwood trade, and are usually less than 300 feet in ength. - There are two privately owned wharves, in poor condition, adja- cent to each other. There is a warehouse at each wharf. A highway Over which all freight is moved, connects the wharves with the village. AGATE BAY, MINN. The harbor at Agate Bay, Minn., is situated on the north shore of Lake Superior, 26 miles northeast of Duluth. (See United States Lake Survey Chart No. 9, Lake Superior.) It is a natural bay or indentation three-fourths of a mile long by 1 mile wide. The project for improvement provides for two breakwaters to narrow the natural entrance and afford protection from northeast and southwest storms. There is a natural depth of more than 20 feet at mean low water over most of the area, with a depth of over 50-feet at the entrance. Vessels drawing 20 feet can reach the wharves. The commerce of the harbor consists almost entirely of the ship- ment of iron ore, lumber and pulpwood, and the receipt of coal. All sizes of lake vessels use the harbor. This being the water terminus of the Duluth & Iron Range Railroad, the shipments of iron ore are large. In 1918 the commerce of the harbor amounted to 10,155,700 tons, of which 9,770,289 tons were iron ore. The Duluth & Iron Range Railroad owns all the water front of the harbor and all the wharves. It operates four modern iron ore docks, two merchandise wharves, one coal dock, and one pulpwood wharf. All but one merchandise wharf and the pulpwood wharf have rail- road connections. The ore docks, the coal dock, and the pulpwood wharf are modern terminals and handle the business with minimum 1523 1524 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. delay to vessels. Three of the ore docks are steel and concrete and one is of timber. The steel-concrete docks were built in recent years to replace others of timber. As the size of vessels increases it is necessary to increase the height and size of docks to accommodate them and the plant is improved as fast as the commerce warrants. There are no established harbor lines. In recent years no con- struction or alteration of wharves has been permitted without ap- proval of the Secretary of War. Permission }. the enlargement in 1905 of one of the merchandise wharves contained the provision that ‘‘Vessels using this harbor as a refuge shall be allowed to tie up with- out expense to any unoccupied portion of the structures herein authorized provided they do not interfere with the operations of said licensee.” There are no publicly owned wharves in the harbor. Passenger boats land passengers at the merchandise wharf free and a wharfage charge is made for freight. This charge is reasonable and as the package freight business is very small it is considered that the present wharves meet the needs satisfactorily. There are facilities for coaling vessels and complete railroad machine shops. No warehouses are available. The merchandise wharves are used for landing passengers and for shipping lumber, which is handled without mechanical appliances. There is a high- way between the merchandise wharves and the village. DULUTH-SUPERIOR, MINN., AND WIs. Description of harbor.—Superior Bay and its tributaries, St. Louis Bay and St. Louis River, together with Allouez Bay and the mouth of the Nemadji River at the south, or Wisconsin end of Superior Bay, form Duluth-Superior Harbor, which is at the extreme westerly end of Lake Superior, a distance of 395 miles from its outlet at Sault Ste. Marie. The cities of Duluth, Minn., and Superior, Wis., are situated on the north and south sides of the harbor respectively. (See United States Lake Survey Charts Nos. 9 and 966, Lake Supe- rior.) It has 49 miles of harbor frontage, 17 miles of dredged chan- nels, and 544 acres of dredged anchorage, all of which lie behind Minnesota Point, a natural breakwater 8 miles long. On account of ice, navigation is closed during winter at all Lake Superior harbors. The average date of opening of interlake navigation at Duluth- Superior for 48 years is April 22 and the average date of closing December 14. Project for improvement.—The project for improvement provides for two entrances through Minnesota Point and ample provision at mean low water for vessels with a draft of 20 feet. #. of the entrances is protected by piers and has a channel leading from the lake to the piers 30 feet deep at mean low water and a channel between the piers 24 feet deep. At Duluth entrance these channels are 300 feet wide. At Superior entry the channels are 600 and 500 feet wide, respectively. Superior entry is further protected by break- waters, inclosing a stilling basin with an area of 35 acres 24 feet deep. Inside the entrances 17 miles of channels with widths varying from 100 to 600 feet and 544 acres of anchorage area have been dredged and 171 acres more of anchorage area have been authorized but not yet been dredged. Vessels with a draft of 20 feet can use any part of the dredged channels and anchorage areas at mean low water in any kind of weather. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1525 Character and eaſtent of commerce.—This is the second harbor in the United States in tonnage, but not in value, of freight, and is one of the chief shipping ports in the world. The total receipts and ship- ments for 1918 were 53,746,358 tons, valued at $537,514,906. Of this, 12,489,867 tons were receipts and 41,256,491 tons were ship- ments. Iron ore furnished 38,213,498 tons, coal 11,390,913 tons, and grain 2,165,849 tons, making a total for these three articles of 51,770,- 260 tons or about 96 per cent of all the commerce of the port. The principal remaining articles were flour 630,650 tons, limestone 335,664 tons, oils 292,223 tons, lumber 152,306 tons, and gravel and sand 139,436 tons. The harbor was open for interlake traffic 231 days, giving an average of 232,668 tons, per day. This one port furnished nearly 63 per cent of all the freight going through the Soo Canal at the mouth of Lake Superior. In this report “tons” Imeans short tons unless otherwise stated. • Size and type of vessels.--All classes of lake vessels use this harbor. The average net registered tonnage of vessels in 1918, exclusive of tugs, launches, etc., was 4,089 tons. The average cargo capacity was about 203 per cent of this. The longest vessel to use the harbor to date had a length of 625 feet, the greatest beam was 64.2 feet and the greatest draft 21.5 feet. The greatest single cargo was 15,337 tons. However, about 80 per cent of the freight is carried in vessels of from 3,000 to 6,000 net registered tonnage or from about 6,000 to 12,000 tons cargo capacity. Grain, iron ore, and coal are carried in bulk in vessels made specially for this traffic. Most of the remaining freight is carried in ordinary vessels. . Some of the vessels also carry passengers and there are some special passenger boats. Terminal and transfer facilities.—On the Great Lakes the term dock is used to designate a wharf rather than the water space between piers or wharves In this report such structures are termed “wharves” except for coal and iron-ore docks, where the term has been used so much as to become practically fixed. The pier and slip form of construction is ºf with only a few cases of longitudinal wharves OI’ }}. . e dequacy of terminals —There are 6 miles of wharves on the water front of this harbor, measuring along the front of the wharves. This is considered adequate for the needs of commerce and there is plenty of space for more. Increased facilities have in the past been pro- vided as needed. Since the unit value of the traffic as a whole is comparatively small, an economical method for handling the freight at the terminals has been necessary. The methods of handling bulk cargoes are believed to be º; the most efficient in the world. The methods of handling other freight are rather crude and little improvement has been made for a number of years, largely because these items constitute but a small amount of the total tonnage and also because in the past the railroads had to a large extent control of the shipping on the lakes and apparently made no effort to improve the facilities for this kind of freight. Package freight as a rule is handled by hand and truck, the only exception being at the Northern Pacific Railway Dock. No 2 at Duluth, where a Brown portable conveyer is used. This consists of a portable endless belt or chain operated by electricity, which conveys the freight from the ware- house to the boat. The more bulky and less valuable freight had of necessity to be handled very cheaply if it were to be handled at all. 1526 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The improvement in methods of handling the bulky materials has been very rapid. Very complete terminals have been established at all harbors on the lake where grain, iron ore, and coal are handled and these are remodeled or rebuilt to incorporate the latest improve— ments as fast as they have demonstrated their value. Port administration and charges.—The city of Duluth has a harbor master who looks after shipping and the enforcement of rules and regulations concerning navigation shoreward of the harbor lines. Outside the harbor lines the harbor is handled under rules prescribed by the Secretary of War. These rules are enforced by patrols fur- nished by the district engineer office. There are no port charges. Most of the wharves are free for all vessels to land but dockage of from 40 cents to 60 cents per ton is charged at public wharves on shipments consigned locally to or from Duluth, and on traffic des— tined to, or coming from, points outside Duluth by lines of railroads not having their own wharves. These dockage charges are absorbed by the boat lines. * Public ownership and control of water front.—At none of the ports on Jake Superior is the tendency toward public ownership of water terminals strong. This lack of enthusiasm for public ownership is accounted for by the fact that the commerce of ºft important harbors is largely bulk freight, which is efficiently handled by private wharves. The need for expensive publicly owned wharf property is therefore not urgent. About 22 per cent of the entire frontage of Duluth- Superior Harbor is owned by railroad companies, less than 1 per cent by municipalities, and the remainder, 77 per cent, by private indi- viduals or companies and corporations. The following are the names of the railroad companies now owning harbor frontage: Northern Pacific Railway. Great Northern Railway. Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Railway (Northwestern system). Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway (Canadian Pacific system). Duluth, Winnipeg & Pacific Railway (Canadian Northern system). Duluth & Iron Range Railway (United States Steel Corporation). Duluth, Missabe & Northern Railway (United States Steel Corporation). Interstate Transfer Railway (United States Steel Corporation). These companies own the greater portion of the most accessible and convenient frontage and have built terminals on some of this property. There is a large amount of privately owned frontage occupied by, or available for, terminals. Only about one-eighth of the available space inside the harbor lines is occupied at present. The city of Duluth owns no harbor frontage except street ends. Five of these have been improved and are now in use, being open to the public without charge. A few years ago the problem of establishing muni- cipal terminals was taken up but was dropped on account of the expense. The city of Superior has a 70-foot wharf frontage on each side of Tower slip on First Street, with no facilities for storing or handling freight. It has four wharf sites on Superior Bay, with a frontage of approximately 2,227 feet. Plans have been made for a passenger and freight wharf on one of these sites and it is intended to begin work at an early date. Interest shown in terminal improvements.--Terminal facilities have always been provided as rapidly as needed, and, except for about 4 per cent of the freight, are among the most efficient to be found anywhere. The lack of proper means for handling package freight is, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1527 as has been stated, partly due to the small amount of this freight and partly to railroad control in the past, but it is expected that, with the elimination of this control, private interests will provide as * facilities for this kind of freight as has been done for bulk reight. Efforts made to use navigation facilities.—Full use has been made of the navigation facilities furnished. The draft of vessels has been the greatest that the depth of the harbor would permit. The greatest interest has been shown by the people in all matters tending to im- provements and each improvement made has immediately been taken advantage of and used to the fullest extent for navigation. Railroad and water connections.—Ten railroads serve the harbor at Duluth-Superior. These are, in addition to those named above, the Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic Railway and the Lake Superior Ter- minal & Transfer Railway. Each important terminal has trackage connection with all of the railroads through a beſt line. Through rates are in effect between points east of Buffalo and west of Duluth by rail, lake and rail lines. These rates are prorated between the rail and boat lines. Such of the terminals as handle local freight have highway connections. General efficiency of the port.—The general efficiency of the port as a whole may be best demonstrated by the low freight rates and the rapid dispatch of vessels. Lake freight on coal from Lake Erie ports to this harbor, an average distance of 872 miles, in recent years has varied from about 30 to 60 cents per ton. This is at a rate of from Seven-twentieths to seven-tenths mill per ton-mile. The rates on iron ore have varied from $0.44 to $1.75, the average distance being about the same, or from five-tenths to 2 mills per ton-mile. The rates on wheat varied from $0.394 to $1.733, the average distance being about 985 miles, or from four-tenths to 1.7 mills per ton-mile. With these low freight rates a boat must be assured of expeditious service at the loading and unloading terminals or it can not carry the freight at a profit. The average cargo of coal in 1918 was 8,766 tons. The average dispatch per cargo at the coal docks was 30 hours and 13 minutes. A case is on record in which a vessel was loaded with 9,457 gross tons of ore in 25 minutes. The average time would be about 2 hours. In 1917 a vessel entered this port, unloaded 14,998 tons of coal and then loaded with 14,403 tons of iron ore, the total elapsed time between passing the entrance going in and passing the same point going out being 24 hours and 15 minutes. Grain is handled with an efficiency equal to that of iron ore and coal. Coaling, storage, and repair facilities.—There are ample coaling, storage, and repair facilities at this port for all present needs of commerce. All the coal is brought by vessel from Lake Erie ports. As most of lake commerce is in vessels which go to Lake Erie ports, little coaling is done at Duluth except by vessels engaged in local commerce. There are a number of places where . can coal. . This, in most places, is done by hand but vessels suitably arranged so that they can be loaded by clam shell buckets from the coal docks can be coaled at any of these docks. A typical case of an efficient coaling plant is given under the description of coal terminals. There are five shipyards in the harbor. One of these, the Superior Ship- building Co.'s yard at Superior, has complete equipment for building and repairing ships, including two large, modern dry docks, with the 1528 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. following dimensions: Dock No. 1 is 591 feet long over all, entrance gate 64 feet wide, depth 14 feet over sill; dock No. 2 is 620 feet long over all, entrance gate 66% feet wide, depth 19 feet over sill. The Marine Iron & Shipbuilding Works’ yard at Duluth has a floating dry dock and handles smaller boats, tugs, and scows. { Suggested betterments.-The methods of handling bulk freight being so efficient, no improvements can be suggested at the present time. Such improvements in the past have always been made when neces- sary or desirable. The facilities for handling package freight, lumber, and general merchandise should be improved, as these have not been materially changed for many years. The lumber trade tends to lessen but the package freight and general merchandise are increasing and can be expected to increase still more rapidly in the future than in the past. There is but one wharf in the harbor which has any improved methods for handling this freight. Other wharves should be constructed with improved freight handling facilities. It is believed this will be done without Government pressure as the amount of this freight increases and railroad control, with its ten- dency toward artificial increase of lake rates, is destroyed. It is not seen how the time in port for bulk carriers could readily be decreased below the remarkable records heretofore made. Classification of terminals.—The commerce of this port may be roughly divided into four classes: First, miscellaneous merchandise; second, coal; third, iron ore; fourth, grain. The first class covers a considerable variety of articles, but as the total amount is relatively small and the means provided for handling freight are rather crude, there are no examples of efficient or economical handling or types suitable for use in other localities. The last three classes are for specific commodities. Each of these will be treated separately and where of interest a short history of the development will be given, as well as a description of the more important terminals, particularly of those showing special efficiency and economy and suitable for general use in harbors having the same physical characteristics and a similar COInnſlerCe. MISCELLANEOUS TERMINALS. General description.—The methods of handling freight at this port other than coal, iron ore, and grain are, as has been stated, rather primitive, the work being done by hand in almost every case. Var- ióus things have conduced to this condition. This commerce is relatively small, being but 4 per cent of the total for the harbor. The port is open for navigation on an average something less than eight months during the year. This has, worked against lake traffic in general merchandise because commerce moves in certain channels more or less by its own inertia and since traffic during the winter must be carried on by rail there is a tendency to continue this during the ‘season when navigation is open. Also, the larger wholesale houses and jobbers for this region were originally established at other places, principally at St. Paul and Minneapolis. The principal steamship lines carrying general freight have in the past been owned or controlled by railroads, which have been more interested in their rail traffic than in their lake business. Until recent years there was no law compelling railroads to make through rail and lake rates and WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1529 to issue bills of lading to shippers using independent lines of steamers, and there were also no laws fixing railroad rates. The result was that rates on general merchandise were so fixed that the natural advantage of the cheap lake service was largely destroyed, and as the railroads controlled the shipping, they had no special object in making particularly efficient wharves, since it was to their interest that lake freight rates should be kept up. The condition so far as the railroads are concerned is now greatly improved and it is hoped and expected that better facilities will be provided in the future. Facilities available.—There are 43 wharves in the harbor which handle freight other than the three main articles mentioned. Of these 16 are open to public use, 8 without charge. The 14 more important ones have between them a total warehouse or freight shed floor area of 1,376,390 square feet, of which 1,048,007 is available for public use, the remaining space of 328,383 square feet belonging to four private wharves. A number of mercantile houses of import- ance have wharves which handle a considerable amount of freight. At these houses there are ample storage facilities but this storage belongs rather to the house than to the wharf. The wharves as a rule are on piles with wood superstructure, although a few of the more modern and better ones are on timber cribs filled with sand, with concrete superstructures. The bulk of the storehouses are of wood alone or of wood frame covered with corrugated or galvanized iron. In some places concrete is used. COAL TERMINALS. History.—The shipment of coal to the northwest by way of the Great Lakes began in 1855, when about 1,414 tons passed through the Soo Canal. Most of this was used in the copper industry of upper Michigan. The first cargo of commercial coal was brought to Duluth- Superior Harbor in 1871 and during that year a total of about 3,000 tons was delivered. It was unloaded by means of wheelbarrows and reshipped direct by rail, there being no facilities for handling coal and no provision for stocking it at the head of the lakes. A dock for handling coal was equipped in 1877 by the North Western Fuel Co. About 1878 steam power was first applied by means of derricks and marked a development in the discharge of coal cargoes. In 1883 the first traveling bridge tramways were installed on coal docks at the head of the lakes and from this time the development of the present ºn steel bridge coal unloading machinery has been constant and I’8,0101. resent facilities.—There are now 24 coal docks at this port, all with efficient mechanical means for handling coal, a number being of the most modern and efficient types. The storage capacity varies from 63,000 to 1,000,000 tons. The total storage capacity is 11,543, 000 tons. Figures covering 1,282 cargoes delivered during the season of 1918, including a total of 11,238,549 tons, show that the average cargo was 8,766 tons; the average dispatch per cargo at the coal docks was 30 hours and 13 minutes, and the average dispatch per 1,000 tons was 3 hours and 27 minutes. The term ‘‘average dispatch’’ includes all time elapsing from the vessel's entrance into the harbor until its cargo is discharged, except a reasonable allow- ance of time for the vessel to reach the dock after entering. 1530 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Typical dock.-The selection of a typical coal dock is difficult. There are docks at this port that have an unloading capacity of 1,000 tons of coal an hour but which may not be equipped for un- loading boats and loading cars at the same time. Some of the fastest docks handle no hard coal. As an example, not of the fastest dock, but of one equipped for handling all kinds of coal with reason- able dispatch, and as one of large storage capacity, the Pittsburgh Coal Co.'s Dock No. 7 of Duluth is cited. (See accompanying photo- raph.) g This dock is located on the Superior Bay side of Rice Point. It has an area of 42.6 acres, and a storage capacity of 930,000 tons of bituminous and 70,000 tons of anthracite coal. It is electrically operated throughout. The machinery installation comprises three two-span bridges on the front of the dock and two single-span bridges at the rear, the spans having lengths varying from 242 to 244 feet. Each of the two-span bridges and one of the single-span bridges are equipped with a man-trolley, carrying a 53-ton grab bucket. The single-span bridges may be operated separately, or may be registered with any of the two-span bridges, thus forming continuous runways 726 feet long across the dock, their over-all length being 839 feet, cantilevers and aprons included. º coal is removed from the hold by grab buckets or clamshells. These have been perfected of late years and are built of different designs for various purposes. The unloading bucket is built with a capacity up to 12 tons. Clean-up clams have been perfected with devices for swinging the clam after entering the hatch, so that its greatest spread when open is lengthwise of the boat. These clam shells have reduced the amount of hand shoveling to a minimum and greatly reduced the cost and time elements in dis- charging coal. . - Sorting and storing.—A complete screening plant, with bins, shak- ing and revolving screens, elevators, and conveyers, is located in the rear leg of one of the single-span bridges. In this plant lump coal is prepared and the residue separated into the different sizes of nut, stove, and screenings. Provision is made for loading into cars or stocking on the dock; also for storing hard coal under cover, the building having a capacity of 37,000 tons. Shipping.—The shipping facilities are very complete. A double- track #. provided with crossover tracks, runs around the outside of the dock, giving easy rail access to any part of the property. A five-track storage yard is provided along one side of the property. Cars are weighed-in light, loaded and weighed out, there being three sets of scales for weighing cars. The plant has four box-car loaders, bins and scales for loading and weighing coal in wagons, cable haul- age for moving cars, and other devices to expedite and reduce the cost of operation. It is connected with all railroad lines through the Lake Superior Terminal & Transfer Railway. Coaling vessels.—On the harbor end of the dock is located a four- bin vessel coaling plant. The bins have a total capacity of 300 tons and are all on a set of scales so that the coal delivered is accurately weighed as discharged from the bins by chutes. H. Doc. 652, 65–2. sTEAM ER UN LOADING COAL AT DU LUTH HARBOR, | RON ORE LOADING DOCK, DU LUTH, MINN. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1531 IRON ORE TERMINALS. History.—The Mining and Engineering World for January 18, 1913, contained the following item: The first ore shipping docks on the Great Lakes were built at L’Anse, Marquette, and Escanaba, Mich., in the early seventies. That at L’Anse was erected in 1872 by the Marquette, Houghton & Ontonagon Railroad, and a description of it is given in the first volume of the Geological Survey of Michigan, published in 1873. This dock was of wood, 546 feet long, 36 feet wide, and 38 feet high, and at the time was considered a marvelous piece of construction. It had 80 “vessel pockets” and four “steamboat pockets.” Ore was delivered to vessels from these pockets in the same way as at present, that is, by gravity, the ore running down spouts, the upper ends of which were 20 feet above water. But the four steamboat pockets were but 12 feet above water, and ore from them was spouted into hand carts, which were wheeled on board the steamers. * * * From those small beginnings have developed the present modern concrete-steel ore docks. The original timber docks had a life of from 8 to 15 years. With the increase in the cost of timber, concrete and steel have been resorted to, most of the new constructions be- ing of these materials. The first steel dock was built at Two Harbors in 1908. All the ore shipping harbors on Lake Superior except Marquette Harbor proper now have one or more concrete-steel docks. Present traffic.—In 1918 the shipment of iron ore from United States ports formed about 91 per cent of the total shipments from Lake Superior. The harbors in the United States on Lake Superior from which iron ore is shipped, with their tonnage in short tons for the season of 1918, are as follows: Agate Bay, Minn., 9,770,289 tons; Duluth-Superior, Minn. and Wis., 38,213,498 tons; Ashland, Wis., 8,473,481 tons; Marquette Bay, Mich., 2,945,720 tons; and Mar- quette, Mich., 926,181 tons; total, 60,329,169 tons. At all of these hº there are suitable docks and terminal facilities for handling the Ore. - a Present facilities.—There are now 10 ore docks at Duluth-Superior, all very efficient, a number being of the most modern and efficient types of concrete and steel construction. Their storage capacity varies from 57,000 to 135,600 gross tons. The total storage capacity is 980,700 gross tons, or 1,098,384 short tons. The ore is brought from the mines in trains of from 70 to 90 steel hopper cars, holding upward of 50 tons each. The cars are run out on the docks and the ore is dumped into pockets, each of which has a storage capacity of from 100 to 400 tons. Some cars of the latest type can be dumped by one man in 15 seconds. The largest docks have 192 pockets on either side and it is possible to load four or five large ore vessels at the same time at each dock. * . Typical dock.-There are a number of ore docks at this port which are considered to be especially efficient and economical and suitable for general use at any ore-shipping harbor. The Duluth, Missabe & Northern Railway Dock No. 6, located at Duluth, may be considered typical. This is a new plant which will be in the list of shipping docks in 1919. (See accompanying plan and photograph.) It consists of a four-track dock, 2,304 feet long, with necessary trestle approach, upon which are two tracks leading to the dock. The total height from low water datum to the top of the rail is sº feet. The width between outside faces of pockets is 60 feet, while the ex- treme width outside of overhanging concrete operating platforms is 75 feet 5 inches. 1532 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. There are 384 pockets, arranged in pairs, one on either side of the longitudinal ridge along the center of the dock. The pocket floors slope at an angle of 47% degrees from the horizontal, the depth being 5 feet 11 inches at the inside and about 39 feet at the outside or front of the pocket. The pockets are 12 feet wide, center to center of partitions, and each has a capacity of 6,066 cubic feet, or 8.6 cars of ore. Construction.—The frame is of structural steel and consists of bents located in the partitions between pockets. These bents consist of two supporting columns spaced 45 feet center to center, upon which rests an A-frame, consisting of two main sloping pocket girders and the structural ties with which they are united to form a truss. Sup- ported on the pocket girders are vertical columns which serve both as the framework for the partitions between pockets and as supports for the track floor and its live load. These bents are connected by pocket floor beams between the A-frame girders and by the track girders and track deck. -* The structural steel serves only as the frame of the dock. All ocket floors, partitions, corner fillers, and the track deck are rein- }. concrete slabs cast in place, openings being left between the rails for dumping cars. Between the pockets there is a crosswalk, 2 feet wide, connecting the longitudinal walks of the deck. The fronts of the pockets are entirely of steel construction. Ladders pro- vided at intervals of 144 feet give access to a continuous platform at the level of the outlet doors. The dock is operated by electricity throughout, including the pocket doors. - Foundation.—The foundation consists of interlocking steel sheet piling along the sides and ends of the dock, inside of which round timber bearing piles are driven. The area inclosed by the steel sheet piling is filled with sand and the whole capped with concrete 6 feet thick, on which concrete piers are provided for supporting the steel posts of the dock. - Ore pocket improvements.-Among other improvements which have been incorporated in the design of this dock may be mentioned the location of pocket doors and corners. Trouble has been experienced in the past in getting a free delivery of ore from the pockets. For some years it was customary to locate the door in the center of the pocket with pocket corners on each side to deflect the ore to the door. The ore has a tendency to arch on these pocket corners on either side of the door and when this occurs it is necessary to break the arch by hand with bars, a slow and somewhat dangerous operation. Various designs have been tried to obviate this difficulty. After extended experiments on the Duluth & Iron Range docks at Agate Bay (Two Harbors), Minn., a design was developed that to a large extent overcame this trouble. This design is incorporated in the new dock under discussion and consists in locating the door at one side of the face of the pocket and using only one pocket corner, so that on one side of the door there is no skewback from which an arch Imay spring. Loading vessels.-In all ore docks the ore is delivered to the boat from the dock through chutes very rapidly by gravity. The hatches of lake boats are usually spaced 12 feet center to center. This also is the spacing of the pockets and chutes on the dock. It is thus possible to deliver ore into all hatches of a boat simultaneously. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1533 Efficiency.—The dock in question, being new, no ore has been shipped from it. It is, however, expected that it will give results as good as or better than ore docks now in service which in some cases have given remarkable dispatch. A writer in the “A. B. C. of Iron and Steel.” reports that the “Steamer William E. Corey, of the fleet of the Pitts- º Steamship Co., loaded 10,111 gross tons of ore in 39 minutes on October 10, 1909, at Two Harbors, Minn. The loading began at 2.17 p. m. and ended at 2.56 p. m. This record was broken by the same steamer at the Allouez #. Dock, Superior, on September 8, 1911, when 9,457 gross tons of ore were loaded in 25 minutes, or 378 tons per minute. The Corey arrived at Allouez Bay Dock at 1.40 }. m., and was ready to load, with water ballast out, at 2.43 p. m. oading began at 2.43 p. m. and was concluded at 3.08 p. m. She left the dock at 3.15 p.m. The total time loading was 25 minutes and the total time at the dock and in port was 1 hour and 35 minutes.” GRAIN TERMINAT.S.

Total capacity-----------------|------------------------|-------------------- 35,075,000 With the exception of the elevators of the Duluth Superior Milling Co. and the Duluth Universal Milling Co., these elevators are all pub- lic in the sense that they are declared regular by the rules of the board of trade. The excepted elevators are only for use of the com- panies operating them. All are on water terminals, being located at 12 different wharves. Adequacy of present facilities.—A total of 119,134,282 bushels of grain and flaxseed was shipped by lake during the season of 1915. This is the largest lake shipment ever made in one year from the 1534 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. |United States ports on Lake Superior. During the season of 1917 new elevators with a total capacity of 1,750,000 bushels were added to the list. As the terminals for shipping grain handled the 1915 crop, since which time new elevators º: been added to the list, º the average shipment for the last 14 years is only 78,292,593 bushels, the present facilities would be considered reasonably ade- quate for ordinary present needs. Nevertheless, the elevator capac- ity is at times entirely occupied and it is necessary to place an em- bargo on shipments from the country elevators. It is understood that some of the existing elevators are prepared to increase their capacity in the near future. - Typical elevator.—The Great Northern elevator “S” and annex are cited as an example of the large elevators of especial efficiency at the head of the lakes. (See accompanying photograph.) The elevator is of steel throughout except the flooring on three floors and the cleaning machines. All chutes, bins, and conveyor shafts are of steel. With the exception of the floors and cleaning machines mentioned above, the plant is fireproof. The main work building is 126 feet wide, 365 feet long, and 237 feet high. The annex is of concrete and consists of circular bins 20+ feet in diameter. There are 72 of these bins, with 51 interstitial spaces, the building being 4 bins wide and 18 long. The storage capacity is 5,500,000 bushels. The plant is actually 9 separate elevating units united into one elevator. Eight of these units are used in the operation of storing and shipping grain, while one is used in the cleaning and drying process for which the plant is equipped. It is operated by electricity throughout, the current being fur- nished by a power plant located in an adjacent brick building. The motors for operating the elevator are located on the top floor of the cupola. There is a separate motor for each unit of the house, or nine in all. - Special features.—Two features of the equipment should be men- tioned as peculiar to this plant and aiding much in the rapidity with which grain is handled. - First. The turn head and telescoping spout is used wherever pos- sible in place of belt trippers. By this means there is a minimum of lost time in changing the discharge from one bin to another and once installed there is nothing to get out of order. Second. Movable power shovel or scraper rigs are used. So far as known this is the only plant in existence where the power shovel rig moves to the cars. In most cases the shovel rig is stationary and the cars have to be spotted in a certain place. In this plant the bin hoppers under the track are large, being nearly the length of an Ordinary car. This makes it possible to unload cars without par- ticular spotting. When the car door has been opened the power shovel or scraper rig is moved into position in front of the door and the grain scraped from the car. Two men and two scrapers are used, one working in each end of the car. # * Track facilities.—The track facilities provide for unloading 18 cars of grain at one setting, and the plant has a record of unloading 350 cars in 10 hours. Complete railroad yards are conveniently located for handling the cars, and these are connected with all roads through the Lake Superior Terminal & Transfer Railway. H. Doc. 552, 55–2. à GRAIN ELEVATOR, SUPERIOR, WLS, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1535 Handling the grain.—From the bins under the track the grain is elevated to the scales, where it is weighed by State weighmen on registering scales and then conveyed to storage bins. When it is shipped it is again weighed, conveyed to the eight shipping bins, and delivered to the boat by gravity through spouts. There are 2 spouts to each bin, making 16 spouts through which grain is delivered. Twenty thousand bushels an hour are delivered through a single spout. This elevator has a record of loading 1,400,000 bushels into boats in One day of about 10 hours. The grain is conveyed from the work- house to and from the annex on conveyor belts, which deliver it to turn heads mentioned above, from which it is delivered to the desired bin by Spouts. The plant handled 42,270,442 bushels of the 1915 crop. From September 1 to December 31, 1915, 36,289,452 bushels of all grains were handled. PORT wing, wis. The harbor of Port Wing, Wis., is situated on the south shore of Lake Superior, 34 miles east of Duluth. (See U. S. Lake Survey chart No. 9, Take Superior.) It has a width of 200 feet and a length of about 2,000 feet, and consists of the improvement of the mouth of Flag River. The project for improvement provides for entrance piers 200 feet apart, with a channel between the piers 150 feet wide and a turning slip at right angles thereto 150 feet wide and 500 feet long, all to have a depth of 15 feet at mean low water. Some shore protection is also provided. The commerce is now small and local in character. It is carried in the smaller class of vessels. There is no rail connection with the harbor. There are no publicly owned wharves. There are two pri- vately owned wharves, one of which is open to the public at fixed charges. These wharves have highway connections. ASHLAND, WIS. The harbor at Ashland, Wis., is situated at the head of Chequame- gon Bay, on the south shore of Lake Superior, 95 miles east of Duluth and 348 miles west of Sault Ste. Marie. (See U. S. Lake Survey chart No. 9, Lake Superior.) The harbor is at the head of a bay about 5 miles wide by 12 miles long, and is separated from the lake by a sand Spit, with a deep channel 2 miles wide between the spit and the mainland. The entrance channel is partly sheltered from lake storms by the Apostle Islands. . The project for improvement provides for a breakwater protecting the wharves and for a dredged channel along the front of the wharves 200 feet wide, with a depth of 20 feet at mean low water. This dredging, with the natural deep water, provides a deep water frontage of 4 miles along the harbor line. The commerce of the harbor consists almost entirely of the ship- ment of iron ore, lumber products and pig iron, and the receipt of coal. The total commerce in 1918 was 9,361,221 tons, of which coal and iron ore furnished 9,276,166 tons, or about 99 per cent. All sizes of lake vessels use the harbor. All important wharves have rail connections, and the merchandise wharves and coal docks have highway con- nections. 1536 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. There are established harbor lines but no local administration of the harbor. The city of Ashland owns two unimproved wharf sites of 700 feet and 400 feet frontage, respectively, located in widely separated parts of the harbor. It leases the inner end of the commercial dock, which is improved and open to public use. There are two railroads owning terminals on the harbor front, the Chicago & North Western Railway, whose lake commerce consists of the shipment of iron ore and which owns and operates three ore docks, and the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway (the Soo Line), which is a part of the Canadian Pacific system. The Soo Line has two ore docks, and its chief lake commerce is the ship- ment of iron ore. It also owns the Commercial Dock, where a general freight business was formerly carried on. The Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Railway, a part of the Chicago & North West- ern system, and the Northern Pacific Railway enter Ashland and are connected by switches to the two railways which have terminals on the harbor front. The North Western and Soo Railway companies own about one- fifth of the harbor front. The remainder and by far the greater por- tion is owned by various companies and private parties. Much of it consists of abandoned sawmill sites now available for wharves and slips. There is also much unimproved space available. There is a large amount of room for lake and rail commerce, and no congestion of traffic is likely to occur. In addition to the ore docks there is a large sawmill with three wharves, three coal docks, and a pig-iron dock in active use for water transportation. There are no lines of general freight boats calling at this harbor at the present time and no general merchandise wharf in operation, and there are no dockage charges. Vessels are free to land at the old Commercial Dock and at most of the other wharves. The methods of handling freight at the various docks and wharves are essentially the same as those in effect at Duluth-Superior Harbor. The ore and coal docks are generally modern and suitable for rapid handling of the commodities. There are no special appliances for handling lumber or for package freight. There are coaling facilities at two of the coal docks, but none for repairs or storage. - ONTONAGON, MICH. The harbor at Ontonagon, Mich., is situated on the south shore of Lake Superior, 136 miles east of Duluth and 274 miles west of Sault Ste. Marie. (See U. S. Lake Survey chart No. 9, Lake Superior.) It consists of the improvement of the mouth of the Ontonagon River. The section of the river under Government improvement is 3,000 feet long and varies in width from 240 feet between the entrance piers to 400 feet inside the piers. It is also necessary to dredge the lake approach for a distance of 550 feet outside the end of the piers. The project for improvement provides for entrance piers 250 feet apart, with a channel in the lake 150 feet wide and 17 feet deep at mean low water, a channel between the piers 100 feet wide and 15 feet deep, and two short channels 75 feet wide and 15 feet deep leading from the inner end of the Government piers to the nearest end of the principal wharves on each side of the river. * WATER TERMINAL AND. TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1537 The commerce of the harbor is small and local in character. It has suffered in recent years, due to the destruction by fire of a large saw- mill, all of the output of which was shipped by water. The harbor serves as a refuge for the smaller class of coasting boats, tugs, scows, and launches. There are no publicly owned wharves. . There are two private wharves in active use, one Gpen to the public at all times at fixed charges, the other at times without charge. The former is connected with the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway by a spur line. Both have highway connections. KEWEENAW WATERWAY, MICH. Keweenaw Waterway, Mich., is a continuous navigable.channel 25 miles long, partly natural and partly artificial, across Keweenaw Point, Mich., with its upper or westerly entrance 166.5 miles east of Duluth and its lower or easterly entrance 205.5 miles west of Sault Ste. Marie. (See U. S. Lake Survey chart No. 944.) The project for improvement provides for a channel with a least bottom width of 120 feet and depth of 20 feet at mean low water; a pier at the lower entrance extending to deep water; converging break- waters at the upper entrance, inclosing a stilling basin with parallel piers leading into the canal; an anchorage basin near the upper entrance 3,600 feet by 600 feet, and 5,924 feet of pile timber mooring piers; and an anchorage basin near the lower entrance one-half mile long and 800 feet wide, with a pile timber mooring pier 2,000 feet long. The commerce in 1918 amounted to 1,557,005 tons of local freight and 394,785 tons of through freight, a total of 1,951,790 tons. Coal and copper constitute nearly 99 per cent of the local traffic. All kinds of lake vessels use the waterway. Terminals of various kinds sufficient for present needs have been constructed, and most of them have railroad and transfer connections. The cities of Houghton and Hancock are located opposite each other on the waterway. The former owns wharves at the ends of three streets, while the latter owns one wharf. Vessels are free to land at any wharf, public or private. The ownership of the harbor frontage and terminals, outside of street ends owned by the cities, is divided as follows: Three railroads, the Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic Railway, the Mineral Range Railway, and the Copper Range Railway own about one-fifth and about 30 companies or individuals the remainder. - There are harbor lines established over the portion of the waterway contiguous to the cities of Houghton and Hancock. The movements of shipping are regulated by rules prescribed by the Secretary of War. The anchorage basins form harbors of refuge conveniently located at each end of the waterway, with mooring piers to which vessels may tie. There are coaling facilities at Houghton and Hancock, a small shipyard with machine shop at Houghton, and ample storage facili- ties for present and prospective needs. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—97 1538 WATER TERMINAL AND, TRANSFER FACILITIES. MARQUETTE BAY, MICH. The Harbor of Refuge, Marquette Bay, Mich., is situated on the south shore of Lake Superior within the city limits of Marquette and about 3 miles from Marquette Harbor. The bay is about 1% miles long and extends into the shore about one-half mile behind Presque Isle Point (see U. S. Lake Survey chart No. 935). The project for improvement Fºl. for a breakwater protecting the wharves. The depth over the greater part of the bay is from 18 to 20 feet at mean low water. Vessels drawing 20 feet can reach the wharves at low water. The commerce consists of the shipping of iron ore and pig iron. It amounted to 2,945,107 tons in the season of 1918. All sizes of lake Vessels use, the harbor. The business is handled over a modern, reinforced concrete ore dock, 1,200 feet long and 54 feet wide, with a storage capacity of 56,000 tons, and an open merchandise or pig iron wharf. Both have rail connection with and are owned by the Lake Superior & Ishpeming Railway. The pig iron wharf also has high- way connection. There are no established harbor lines or port administration. No publicly owned wharves exist, the present facilities being adequate for existing commerce. The Lake Superior & Ishpeming Railway owns about 1,300 feet of harbor frontage which it uses for its terminals. The Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic Railway owns about 2,600 feet, but has no terminal on the harbor front. These two railroads own between them about 68 per cent of the harbor frontage, the remainder being owned by the city. The Marquette, Munising & Southeastern Railway is connected by switches ". the terminals of the Lake Superior & Ishpeming Railway. There are no coaling or repair facilities at this harbor, but such facilities exist at Marquette Harbor, which is only 3 miles distant. MARQUETTE, MICH. The harbor at Marquette, Mich., is on the south shore of Lake Superior, 256 miles east of Duluth and 160 miles west of Sault Ste. Marie. (See U. S. Lake Survey Chart No. 935.) It is in Marquette Bay, protected by a breakwater 4,500 feet long. º project for improvement provides for a breakwater protectin the wharves and the removal of a small shoal, giving a protecte area of 350 acres, with a depth of 22 feet at mean low water. The commerce consists principally of receipts of coal, iron pyrites, and general merchandise, and shipments of iron ore and lumber, amounting to 1,334,979 tons in 1918. All sizes of lake vessels use the harbor. The active portion of the harbor frontage, about 47 per cent of the total, is owned by the Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic Railway, and is occupied by terminals for iron ore, coal, lumber, and general mer- chandise. Some of these are operated under leases from the railroad. The Ore dock is of the usual type, of timber construction, modern and efficient. The coal docks are fairly efficient, considering the amount # ; handled. No special facilities are installed for handling other reight. - watsR TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1539 There is a considerable extent of harbor frontage privately owned and at present unoccupied, but available for terminals. The Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic Railway has rail connections with the prin- cipal terminals. The merchandise and coal wharves are provided with highway connections. The Lake Superior & IshpemingFailway and the Marquette, Munising & Southeastern Railway reach Mar- quette, but have no water terminals. There are established harbor lines, but no special port administra- tion. There are no publicly owned wharves, but vessels are free to land, at existing wharves. There is a dockage charge on freight locally consigned, but not on through freight traffic. Coaling facili- ties are provided at the coal docks, and there are machine shops nearby tº: water front for ordinary repairs. GRAND MARAIS, MICH. The harbor of refuge at Grand Marais, Mich., is situated on the south shore of Lake Superior, 314 miles east of Duluth and 93 miles west of Sault Ste. Marie. (See U. S. Lake Survey Chart No. 9, Lake Superior.) It is a natural deep-water bay, having a length of 2 miles, a width of three-eighths of a mile, an area of 240 acres, and a depth of 18 to 57 feet. The project for improvement provides for entrance piers 500 feet apart, and for dredging a ...' between them 500 feet wide at the lake end, and with a depth of 20 feet at mean low water and 300 feet wide at the harbor end with a depth of 18 feet. This being primarily a harbor of refuge the commerce is small. It has fallen off in recent years, due to the exhaustion of tributary tim- ber and the consequent dismantling of mills which did an extensive business. All sizes of lake vessels, whose draft permits, use this har- bor as a harbor of refuge. There is no railroad connection with the harbor. There are no publicly owned wharves. There are several private wharves, but two of which are in use. These are adequate for existing commerce and are free of access to all vessels for mooring without charge. They have highway connections. # WATER, TIERIMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. GRAND MARAIS, MINN. NORTHERN DOCK & FISH CO. NORTHERN DOCK & FISH CO.

MILWAUKEE, WIS., DISTRICT. COL, EDWARD H SCHULZ, ENGINEER IN CHARGE. MANISTIQUE HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the north shore of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of Manistique River. It consists of a basin 31 acres in area, protected by breakwaters. The commercial harbor is on the Manistique River and with slips provides available frontage of about 5 miles. Population of city is 5,180. The main line of the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway passes through Manistique, but its tracks do not extend to the harbor; rail connection is made by the Manistique & Lake Superior Railway. Existing project.—This provides for two breakwaters and for a channel 18 feet deep at low-water datum; this channel extends from that depth in the lake up the river a distance of 1,650 feet from its mouth, having a total length of 3,200 feet from the outer end in the lake; the channel varies in width from 225 feet to 475 feet, the west side at the river mouth being protected by a revetment 375 feet long. Character and eatent of commerce.—Ninety-eight per cent of the commerce is carried by car-ferry steamers and is transferred thereby between the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway and ports on the east shore of Lake Michigan, thence by railway east and west. Receipts consist of coal and miscellaneous merchandise; ship- ments consist of lumber and other forest products, grain, pig iron, and miscellaneous merchandise. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts, 126,840 tons, value $6,986,086; shipments, 321,989 tons, value $9,360,803; total, 448,829 tons, value $16,346,889. Size and type of vessels.—Car-ferry steamers are from 259 to 360 feet in length and have a carrying capacity of from 24 to 34 cars on a draft of 17% feet. Other vessels consist of steamers, steam barges, sailing vessels, fishing tugs, and pleasure launches; maximum size, about 3,000 tons; medium draft, about 16 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The Ann Arbor Railroad operates car-ferry steamers between Manistique and Frankfort, Mich., the latter being the western terminus of the railroad. The car-ferry terminal consists of a slip and counterbalanced apron. Cars are handled by the Manistique & Lake Superior Railway. Practically all car-ferry commerce is received from and delivered to the Minne- apolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway. Coal for local use is received at the wharf of the City Fuel & Dock Co. This wharf has fairly good highway but no rail connection. It has no mechanical appliances for unloading vessels. The vessels are equipped with self-unloading devices consisting of hoppers, belt con- veyors, and elevators having an unloading capacity of about 600 tons per hour. 1578 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1579 Package freight is received and shipped at a wharf owned by the City Fuel & Dock Co., having fair highway but no rail connection. The wharf is equipped with warehouse, storage capacity 250 tons, but has no mechanical device for loading and unloading vessels. It is open to all vessels on like terms for like service. Miscellaneous freight, coal, iron, and lumber is received and shipped at a wharf owned by the Consolidated Lumber Co. This wharf has rail but no highway connection, and is not provided with warehouse. It is open to all vessels on like terms for like service. Lumber wharves occupy practically all the upper portion of the harbor, about 4 miles of frontage. These wharves have no rail con- nection and are not equipped with mechanical appliances for loading and unloading. They are used exclusively by the lumber companies. Port administration.—There is no harbor master or other local official in charge of the harbor and no publicly owned or controlled wharf. Charges at privately owned wharves which are open to the public are 12 per cent of water freight charges for package freight, 2% cents per ton for iron, and 10 cents per ton for coal. Adequacy of present terminals.-The car-ferry terminal is well adapted to its purpose. While commerce other than car ferry is only about 2 per cent of the total commerce, aggregating in 1918 only 10,769 tons, and while there is no large back country to develop or Sustain an important local trade, it is believed that an adequate wharf, with warehouse, and having rail and highway connection, should be provided by the city and kept under municipal control, either by º one of the present package freight and general cargo wharves or by the construction of a new wharf on east side of the river near Cedar Street, and make same open to the use of all vessels, both for delivering and receiving cargo and for moorage. MENOMINEE HARBOR AND RIVER, MICH. AND WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Green Bay, at the mouth of Menominee River. It consists of a dredged channel extending upstream for 2 miles, the portion in Green Bay being protected by parallel piers. The commercial har- bor is on the Menominee River and with slips provides available frontage of about 5% miles. The city of Menominee, Mich., on the left or northerly side of the river, has a population of 12,100; the city of Marinette, Wis., on the opposite side of the river, has a population of 15,700. Both cities and the harbor are reached by the Chicago & North Western Railway, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway, and the Wisconsin & Michigan Railway. Existing project.—This provides for protecting the mouth of the river by parallel piers 400 feet apart, and for a channel 18 feet deep at low water datum from that depth in the bay to the upper end of the Marinette municipal wharf, about 4,700 feet above the Ogden Street Bridge, and 8,700 feet from the outer end in the bay where the width is 600 feet, reducing to 300 feet between the piers and 200 feet in the river. Character and extent of commerce.—Sixty-one per cent of the com- merce is carried by car ferry steamers plying between Menominee and ports on the east shore of Lake Michigan. Receipts by all vessels con- sist principally of coal and miscellaneous merchandise; shipments consist principally of lumber, iron ore, and miscellaneous merchandise. 1580 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts, 245,383 tons, value $13,654,731; shipments, 193,914 tons, value $6,361,265; total 439,297 tons, value $20,015,996. Size and º of vessels.--Car ferry steamers are from 259 to 360 feet in length and have a carrying capacity of from 24 to 34 cars on a draft of 17% feet. Other vessels consist of steamers and steam barges, sailing vessels, fishing tugs, and pleasure launches; maximum size about 3,000 tons; maximum draft about 18% feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The Ann Arbor Railroad operates car-ferry steamers between Menominee and Frankfort, Mich., the latter being the western terminus of the railroad. The car ferry terminal consists of a slip, counterbalanced apron, and trackage con- necting with the Chicago & North Western, Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, and Wisconsin & Michigan Railways, which act as joint carriers. - Coal for local consumption and reshipment is received at three wharves. Two of these wharves are equipped with mechanical appli- ances for unloading vessels and loading cars, being of two general types, fixed tower hoists, and traveling bridge hoists. One wharf receives coal by self-unloading vessels, equipped with hoppers, belt conveyors, and elevators, having an unloading capacity of 600 tons per hour. All coal wharves have railway connection. Wharves for lumber and other forest products occupy with slips about 4% miles of frontage. These wharves have railway and high- way gºnnection. but have no mechanical appliances for loading VēSSGIS. Miscellaneous freight is received and shipped at the municipal wharf, owned and operated by the city of Marinette. This wharf is not provided with a warehouse or any mechanical appliances for load- ing or unloading vessels, nor has it direct railway connection; it is open to the general public. There are two privately owned wharves, open to all vessels on like terms for like service. One wharf is for package freight and general merchandise only; the other for miscellaneous freight and passengers. Each wharf is provided with warehouse and railway connections. Neither wharf is equipped with mechanical appliances for loading and unloading vessels. There are three fishing wharves, each provided with warehouse and railway connections. These wharves are used by owners only. Port administration.—There is no harbor master or other local official in charge of the harbor. The use of the Marinette municipal wharf is free to all vessels. Wharfage charges at the two privately owned wharves which are open to the public are 10 to 12 per cent of the water freight charges. Adequacy of present terminals.-Coal and car ferry receipts and ship- ments comprise about 86 per cent of the total tonnage. The car ferry and coal terminals are well adapted for their purpose. The cities of Menominee and Marinette are large enough to develop an important local trade. . The wharf owned by the city of Marinette should be provided with a warehouse and railway connection. A suitable public wharf, with warehouse and railway connection should be provided by the city of Menominee for the use of all vessels, both for delivering and receiving cargo and for moorage. With the exception of the car ferry and coal terminals, no improvements of importance have been made for many years. On the whole, only a fair public interest is shown. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1581 OCONTO HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Green Bay, at the mouth of Oconto River. It consists of a small basin, about 5 acres in area, directly at the mouth of the river, with a channel extending from the basin out into Green Bay. The city of Oconto, population about 5,900, is on the Oconto River, about 2 miles above the harbor, and is served by the Chicago & North Western and Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railways. Existing project.—This provides for protecting the river mouth by parallel piers 140 feet apart, and for a channel 15 feet deep at low water datum from that depth in the bay up the river a distance of 800 feet above its mouth to the upper end of the turning basin, or a total length of 3,800 feet, varying in width from 150 feet at the outer end, reducing to 100 feet between the piers, and enlarging to 375 feet in the turning basin. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce is very small in volume and of only local importance, consisting of fish and salt and a small amount of lumber. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts, 2,100 tons, value $591,340; shipments, 2,077 tons, value $352,075; total, 4,177 tons, value $943,415. Size and type of vessels.—Vessels using this harbor are mostly small steam and gasoline fishing craft, and occasional small package freight steamers and sailing craft; usual draft, about 7% feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—There are 2 wharves for general merchandise, both owned by the city of Oconto, neither of which is equipped with mechanical appliances or public warehouse. There is a private fish warehouse on the lower wharf. Neither wharf has railway connection. The upper wharf has good highway connection; the lower wharf has }. }. connection, but it is being im- proved by the city. . The upper wharf is to be abandoned owing to difficulty of maintaining requisite depth of channel. The lower wharf is to be improved by deepening the turning basin and erecting a public warehouse—the work to be done by the city of Oconto. Port administration.—There is no harbor master or other local official in charge of the harbor. There are no wharfage charges. All improved frontage is owned by the city. Adequacy of present terminals.—The lower public wharf is main- tained by the city, and will be adequate when provided with ware- house. ile the present commerce is small, being principally fish caught in neighboring waters, the city has shown commendable º and interest in P.; funds for roadway to lower wharf, and for deepening and maintaining depth in turning basin. The city expects to build a warehouse and is investigating rail connections and coal handling appliances with a view to receiving coal cargoes and thus reducing the price of coal. At present, all coal for local use is brought by railway from Green Bay. GREEN BAY HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is at the mouth of the Fox River at the head of Green Bay. It consists of a dredged channel extending from deep water in Green Bay, 7 miles up the river to Depere, terminating in a turning basin, about 16 acres in area. The city of Green Bay, population about 29,000, is located on both sides of the river at its mouth. The Chicago & North Western, the Chicago, 1582 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Milwaukee & St. Paul, and the Green Bay and Western railways afford, rail transportation to points north, east, south, and west. The city of Depere, population about 5,000, is located on the Fox River at the head of deep water navigation; it is also the northern or lower terminus of the Fox River improvement, the first lock and dam being located there. The Chicago & North Western Railway and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway extend north and South from Depere. Existing project.—This provides for an outer channel in Green Bay, about 5 miles long and 18 feet deep, from that depth in the bay to the mouth of the river, varying in width from 500 feet at the outer end to 200 feet at the river mouth, the portion through Grassy Island, about 700 feet long, being protected by parallel timber revetments, 220 feet apart; for an inner channel in the river about 3% miles long and 15 feet deep, from that depth in the river at the southerly limits of the city of Green Bay to Depere, having a width of 150 feet. Character and extent of commerce.—Receipts, constituting about 90 per cent of the total tonnage, consist of coal, pulp wood, gasoline and kerosene, and miscellaneous merchandise. Shipments consist of coal and miscellaneous merchandise. Receipts and shipments of coal constitute 93 per cent of the total tonnage, and 72 per cent of the value of the commerce. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts, 996,585 tons, value $7,157,466; shipments, 117,466 tons, value $1,034,977, total, 1,114,051 tons, value $8,192,443. Size and type of vessels.-Some of the largest vessels on the Great Lakes arrive at Green Bay. The usual limits of draft for various vessels, and percentages of total tonnage, are as follows: Coal con- signed to Green Bay City, 81 per cent, 18 feet; coal consigned to Depere, 2 per cent, 15 feet; coal shipments up Fox River (above Depere), 10 per cent, 5% feet; remaining º traffic, 7 per cent, 15 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Coal for local use and reshipment, is received at four wharves in the city of Green Bay and at three wharves in the city of Depere. With the exception of one small wharf at Depere, which receives coal by self-unloading vessels, all coal wharves are equipped with mechanical appliances for unloading and loading vessels and cars. Appliances are of two general types, fixed tower hoists and traveling bridge hoists, having capacities of 75 to 800 tons per hour. Coal wharves at Green Bay have a combined storage capacity of 75,000 tons anthracite and 815,000 tons bitumi- nous; those at Depere, 15,000 anthracite and 26,000 bituminous; total for all wharves, all kinds of coal, 931,000 tons. With the exception of a small wharf at Green Bay, all wharves have railway connections. There are two lumber and log wharves at Green Bay, each with a storage capacity of 1,000,000 feet b. m. There are no mechanical appliances for handling lumber. Logs are transferred from rafts to mills by “bull chain” elevators. One wharf has railway connection; the other has none. Pulp wood is received at three wharves in Green Bay, and is trans- ferred from rafts to wharf by “bull chain” elevators. All wharves have railway connection. - General merchandise is received and shipped at six wharves at Green Bay, and one wharf at Depere. All are provided with ware- houses, but have no mechanical appliances for loading and unloading. All but one have railway connections. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1583 , Grain is shipped at three wharves, two of which are unimportant, with no mechanical appliances. One is provided with an elevator, capacity 1,500,000 bushels, well equipped with appliances for trans- ferring grain from cars to vessels. All have railway connection. A small wharf provided with warehouse and railway connection, is used for shipping seed peas and similar commodities. The Standard Oil Co. has a wharf for receiving and shipping gasoline and kerosene. It is equipped with pipes and tanks and has railway connection. There are six wharves used for fishing purposes, all provided with warehouses. Two have railway connections. Port administration.—There is no harbor master or other local official in charge of the port. There are no publicly owned or con- trolled wharves. There is a small package freight wharf at Green Bay which is open to the general public, the wharfage charges being 15 per cent of the water freight rates. A similar wharf at Depere is open to the public, wharfage charges being 10 cents per hundred-weight. Adequacy of present terminals.-As previously stated, 93 per cent of the total tonnage is coal, for which present wharf facilities are fully adequate. Facilities for handling grain, pulp wood and petro- leum products are adequate. Better facilities for receiving and shipping miscellaneous freight should be provided, The city of Green Bay owns a wharf located on the East River, a small tributary of the Fox River. While this wharf is provided with warehouse and has railway connection, it is not readily accessible. Considerable general interest has been shown in the improvement and utilization of terminal facilities. Improvements have recently been made in facilities for handling coal and other commodities. It is understood that further improvements are contemplated. The more important wharves have rail connections, and a large portion of the coal received by vessel is reshipped by rail. There is also a considerable inter- change of traffic between vessels and railways in grain, pulp wood and general merchandise. - Special considerations.—Among the harbors on Lake Michigan which are under improvement by the United States, Green Bay ranks sixth in tons of commerce, being exceeded by Calumet (South Chicago), Milwaukee, Indiana Harbor, Chicago and Manitowoc, in the order named. The harbor of Green Bay has many natural advantages. The Fox River at the city of Green Bay has an average width of about 800 feet and affords an inner harbor of ample area. There is a total available wharfage of about 6% miles on both sides of the Fox River within the limits of the city of Green Bay. There is no publicly owned water frontage on the Fox River avail- able for municipal wharfage, other than street ends, which are usually of such limited river frontage as to be practically useless as wharves for any vessels except those of the smallest class. There is, however, a large amount of unused river frontage which could be acquired by the public for municipal wharves. Of the river frontage in the city of Green Bay about 72 per cent is not used as wharfage at the present time. The city of Green Bay should acquire a frontage on the Fox River of not less than 300 feet, accessible by railway, and construct a municipal dock equipped with warehouse and mechanical devices for handling package freight and provided with railway connections. Such a location is on the left bank near old Cargill elevator wharf. 1584 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. There is a shipyard at Green Bay city, equipped for building moderate sized vessels and for repairing boats, dredges, etc. There is ample room at the mouth of the East River for turning the largest vessels. Aside from machinery at the coal docks and grain elevator, there are practically no mechanical appliances for handling freight at any of the existing wharves. The coal handling machinery and elevator are without any special features being similar to what are used at Milwaukee and other harbors. Fox RIVER, WIS. Location and description.—The Fox River, Wis., flows in a northerly direction into Green Bay, at the city of Green Bay, a distance of about 176 miles. The Fox River is navigable by means of locks and dams and dredged channels. The principal commerce is at Oshkosh and on the Lower Fox, and on the harbors of Lake Winnebago. This is a thriv- ing valley, highly developed, with manufacturing cities and villages, with a combined population of about 106,780. Oshkosh is the largest city, with Fond du Lac and Appleton next. The Wolf River is navigable to New London by dredged channel and this river and the Upper Fox are-mainly agricultural, with very little commerce on the Wolf, or on the Fox above Berlin. There are seven communities on the Upper Fox with a combined population of about 16,320. Portage, where a canal connects the Fox and Wisconsin rivers, is the largest. There are five communities on the Wolf, with a combined population of about 6,720. New London, the largest, is 57 miles above Oshkosh. There are railroad connections between most of these communities by the Chicago & North Western, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, the Soo Line, and Wisconsin & Northern. Existing project.—This provides for dredging the channels of Fox River and canals from Depere to Montello (125 miles) to a depth of 6 feet; from Montello to Portage (31 miles) to a depth of 4 feet; for construction and reconstruction of 27 locks and 16 dams and other auxiliary structures; for construction and maintenance of small harbors on Lake Winnebago at Fond du Lac, Calumet, Brothertown, and Stockbridge; and for dredging, snagging and improving Wolf River from its mouth to New London to a depth of 4 feet. Character and eatent of water commerce.—This consists of coal, building materials (mostly sand and gravel), clay, farm products, and miscellaneous merchandise. - Total commerce for 1918.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1585 Terminal and transfer facilities.—The principal commerce on Fox River is on the lower river from Green Bay to Oshkosh and the few important wharves with generally meager terminal or transfer facili- ties are located in this section. Most of the up-river so-called docks are mere short steamboat landings or shore revetments of piles, backed with boards, slabs, or occasionally with substantial sheet #.

The number, character, location, and frontage of the various wharves are given in tabular form on pages 1587 and 1588. Only two of the total number have any mechanical shore appli- ances for handling freight. The Wisconsin Traction, Light, Heat & Power Co. at Appleton has a most creditable modern outfit for un- loading coal from barges mooring along the Government retaining wall. An electric traveling gantry crane runs along this wall for a distance of 327 feet, carrying the coal with a clamshell into the large storage basin, capacity 40,000 tons. From the stock piles the bucket discharges onto a belt conveyor, which charges the hoppers in the boiler house. The other, the Cook & Brown Lime Co., operates two locomotive cranes in its yard at Oshkosh, for loading and unloading its barges and boats. They run on standard tracks along the whole wharf front and through the yards to stock piles, cars, and wagons. The sugar beets transported by this company from the Lake Winnebago harbors are thus transferred for rail shipment to the refineries. ... This com- pany has also an efficient floating derrick scow, described below. The new navigation company operates a similar unloader. The Cook & Brown Co. handles a large amount of sand and gravel, transported from their pits and elsewhere, which is unloaded with a steam elevator and j direct over screens for grading. At other localities considerable of the coal is still unloaded by wheelbarrow, especially where it would be impracticable to use an unloader. All other freight is handled by wheelbarrow or by hand; warehouses are very scarce. One dry dock, owned by the United States, is open to the public under certain conditions. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control.—There is no special control of the wharves or harbors except that the public wharf at Oshkosh is under a city patrolman, and all the United St tes locks are under lockmasters. Passengers and small quantities of package freight are allowed to be passed over lock walls. There e 19 public-owned wharves, and 6 of the 38 private wharves are open 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—100 1586 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. to the public. ... These public wharves are used principally for passen- gers and small freight and serves their purpose fairly well. More inviting public docks with a small warehouse and waiting room at each locality should be provided. Most of the commercial wharves, excepting at the harbors on the east shore of Lake Winnebago, and the wharves on the Wolf River, have fairly good rail connections, though there is no attempt at through service or direct transfer. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest, cooperation, etc.— “The foregoing facilities, while adequate for existing commerce, should be improved and extended. Extensive frontage is available for development of water terminals when needed.” (Annual Report of the Chief of Engineers, United States Army, for 1918.) The only changes in recent years have been increased facilities for receiving coal. General interest has been lacking for many years. Special considerations.—The improvement of the Fox River system was actually demanded by the people and obtained after many years of effort. The original purpose was a navigable highway from the Great Lakes to the Mississippi River. After great expenditure and sale of public lands, furnished by the Government, the original project was found unsatisfactory. For a while the interest of the people lagged, but before the railroads were fully established there was a revival and more cooperation of the people. The present project was adopted about 1873. Many boats were built, but at the time owned and run more on the upper rivers. The principal reason for the decline of water transportation, about 1890 and later, was the opposition and competition of the railroads and lack of control of rail rates by the State. The commerce, however, fell until confined very largely to the lower river below Oshkosh. The latter commerce is almost entirely coal with a small amount of building materials. This traffic on the lower river has gradually increased from 42 per cent of total in 1914 to 70 per cent in 1918. Although the tº tonnage from 1914 to 1918 has increased only 15 per cent, the increase in coal receipts dur- intº same years is 43 per cent. he coal is obtained at Green Bay, and a small amount at Depere. About 71 per cent of it is delivered to the paper mills on the lower river, and about 29 per cent to Oshkosh, including about 2 per cent to the small harbors on Lake Winnebago. Coal was transported by various steamboats and barges under tow for many years, but for the past 5 or 10 years almost entirely by the Cook & Brown Lime Co., all others having withdrawn from the lower river. Strange to say, the only two other commercial steamers which ply on the Wolf River receive their bunker coal, etc., by rail at Oshkosh. The Cook & Brown Lime Co. has a fleet particularly adapted for their business, consisting of three steam tugboats, one gasoline tug- boat, eight barges of 200 to 325 tons capacity, two stern-wheeled steamboats, .# one derrick scow, equipped with steam crane and clamshell for loading and unloading barges. The barges are loaded at Green Bay from hoppers provided with chutes, or by steam cranes with clamshells, unloaded by their derrick scow at the various mills on the lower river and by locomotive cranes at the company's storage yards at Oshkosh. This method keeps the fleet active constantly and gives an efficient and economic service. - wATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1587 Many of the mills on the lower river received coal for many years by rail, due undoubtedly to old contracts with the railroads and other reasons, but this has changed greatly during the past five years. Wharves have been constructed and good coal storage established at various places. These benefits and the cheapening of the cost of transportation and handling of the coal have been gradually recog- nized by the millmen, so that during the past year several companies combined and organized the Fox River Navigation Co. at Kaukauna. During the past winter this company built a steam tugboat, three barges of about 350 tons capacity, and a steam derrick scow unloader, of 80 tons per hour capacity. Besides coal they intend to transport pulp wood and products of the mills; undoubtedly this enterprise will succeed and grow. It may lead to a further combination, as they have been advised to purchase the coal direct from the mines in the East and establish a transfer and storage station at Green Bay or Depere.

STURGEON BAY AND LAKE MICHIGAN SHIP CANAL, WIS. Location and description.—This improvement is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, distant about 128 miles northerly from Milwaukee. It consists of a revetted canal connecting Lake Michigan and Stur- geon Bay, a basin having an area of about 12 acres inclosed by breakwaters at the Lake Michigan end of the canal, and a dredged channel connecting the westerly end of the canal with deep water in Sturgeon Bay. The canal and connecting channel form a through waterway between Lake Michigan and Green Bay, Sturgeon Bay being an arm of the latter, and thereby shortens the distance for vessels plying between Green Bay ports and those on the west shore "WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1589 of Lake Michigan to the southward. The port and city of Sturgeon Bay is located on both sides of the bay about 4 miles northwesterly from the canal. While the larger vessels using the canal do not stop at Sturgeon Bay, there is a considerable commerce to and from the port. The population of the city of Sturgeon Bay is about 4,500. It is the northern terminus of the Ahnapee & Western Rail- road, which, with the Kewaunee, Green Bay & Western Railroad, is operated by the Green Bay & Western Railroad Co., provides direct rail communication with Green Bay and territory tº: thereto. Existing project.—This provides for an outer harbor or stilling basin protected by two converging breakwaters; for a channel extend- ing from deep water in the lake to the canal entrance at the shore line; for a revetted canal 7,200 feet in length, varying in width from 160 to 250 feet; for a channel through Sturgeon Bay from the west- erly end of the canal to deep water in the bay; and for a turning basin, located at westerly end of the canal at head of Sturgeon Bay; º channels and the turning basin to be 19 feet deep at low-water atum. . Character and extent of commerce.—Over 61 per cent of the tonnage carried through the canal in 1918 was car-ferry traffic between Menominee, Mich., on the west side of Green Bay, and Frankfort, Mich., on the east shore of Lake Michigan. The commerce both by car ferries and other vessels is miscellaneous in character, the prin- cipal commodities other than the general merchandise being coal, lumber, iron ore, gasoline, and kerosene. Total commerce for 1918 passing through canal: Lake Michigan to Green Bay, 170,438 tons, value, $14,717,625; Green Bay to Lake Michigan, 265,946 tons, value, $5,921,618; total, 436,384 tons, value, $20,639,243. There is no available record of commerce received at and shipped from the city of Sturgeon Bay. It consists largely of fresh and canned fruits, vegetables, and general merchandise. Probably by far the greater part of the local commerce is by railway. Since 1900 there has been a great decrease in lumbershipments from Menominee, owing to the natural decline of the lumber industry. The reduced tonnage in 1918 is probably due to the decreased number of vessels on the Great Lakes by reason of the war. t Size and type of vessels.—All classes of lake vessels, from steamers of 4,000 tons and more to fishing craft and pleasure boats, make use of the canal. Car ferry steamers are from 259 to 360 feet in length, and have a carrying capacity of from 24 to 34 cars on a draft of 17% feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The canal and connecting chan- nels being a through waterway, there are no terminal facilities thereon. The terminal facilities of the commercial harbor at the city of Sturgeon Bay are as follows: Coal for local use is received at four wharves, with a combined storage capacity of 10,500 tons. ...The wharves are poorly equipped for handling coal, most of the appliances being horsepower apparatus. None has a rail connection. Grain, hay, lumber, wood, salt, etc., are received at and shipped from three wharves, all of which are provided with warehouses; one wharf has a grain elevator, capacity about 100,000 bushels. One wharf only has rail connection. Aside from a grain elevator, none of the wharves is equipped with mechanical freight-handling ap- pliances. 1590 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Miscellaneous freight is handled at two wharves, owned and operated by steamboat companies. These wharves are provided with adequate warehouses, but no mechanical freight-handling ap- pliances. Neither wharf has rail connection. Rubble, crushed and building stone is shipped from seven quarries situated at various points along the shore of Sturgeon Bay. These quarries have private slips and are fairly well equipped for handling stone and ſº vessels. These quarries are the principal source of supply for rubble stone used in harbor construction on Lake Michigan. Shipbuilding and repairing is carried on at two yards, equipped with derricks, shops, etc. One yard is equipped with a floating dry dock. Port administration.—The canal requires no administration except such as is carried on by the United States Engineer Department. There is no harbor master or other local official in charge of the port. There are no wharfage charges. There is no publicly owned or controlled wharf. Adequacy of present terminals.--The canal has ample capacity. A turning basin is needed and will be dredged this season with funds recently appropriated. There being no large territory tributary to Sturgeon Bay, it is not likely that an extensive local commerce will be developed. The present terminal facilities at the city of Sturgeon Bay are believed to be adequate for the local commerce, both present and prospective. There is not much evidence of general public interest in improving or utilizing terminal facilities, and no improve- ments of note have been made for many years. There is at present little need for facilities for interchange between boat and rail, though in the near future the community should provide a public wharf and warehouse. ALGOMA. HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan at the mouth of the Ahnapee River, distant about 112 miles northerly from Milwaukee. It consists of a basin having an area of about 11% acres, formed by inclosing a portion of Lake Michigan within breakwaters. The commercial harbor is in the Ahnapee River and the basin. It has an available frontage of about 400 feet. The population of the city of Algoma is about 2,360. Algoma is on the Ahnapee & Western Railroad, which together with the Kewaunee, Green Bay & Western Railroad is operated by the Green Bay & Western Railroad, affording rail communication with Green Bay. Eristing project.—This provides for an outer harbor, 14 feet deep at low-water datum, inclosed by two piers or breakwaters. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce, which is entirely local, consists of coal, wood, and miscellaneous commodities. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts 5,398 tons, value $236,714; shipments 885 tons, value $477,347; total 6,283 tons, value $714,061. . Size and type of vessels.-Wessels using this harbor, consist of steamers up to about 2,000 tons, sailing craft, and fishing boats. Limit of draft, about 14 feet. Terminal and transferſº and wood is received at a wharf having 275 feet frontage, equipped with two steam hoists. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1591 The wharf has storage capacity of 10,000 tons coal and 600 cords wood. It has no rail connection. Lumber is received at two wharves, 155 feet total frontage. Neither wharf is equipped with mechanical appliances or has rail connection. Package freight is received and shipped at a wharf owned and operated by the Merchants' Dock Co. The wharf has a frontage of 280 feet, and is provided with warehouse. It has no mechanical appliances or rail connection. - Fishing industries occupy 240 feet of frontage, which is used by various individual fishermen. Port administration.—The port is in charge of a harbor master appointed by the city council. The wharf of the Merchants' Dock Co. is open to all vessels on like terms for like service, wharfage charges being from 10 to 15 per cent of water freight rates. There is no publicly owned or controlled wharf. Adequacy of present terminals.--The terminal facilities are very meager, and there is but little evidence of general interest in harbor improvements. There is no large back country tributary to Algoma, so that there is no likelihood of any considerable commerce 4. developed. ... While it would be desirable to have a publicly owne and controlled wharf, it is believed that present terminal facilities are adequate for present and prospective commerce except possibly for coal. More decided interest in the commerce of the harbor should be shown by the community. REWAUNEE HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of the Kewaunee River, distant 102 miles northerly from Milwaukee. It consists of a basin having an area of about 12 acres, and a channel protected by parallel piers extending therefrom to deep water in Lake Michigan. The com- mercial harbor is in the river channel and basin, and has an avail- able frontage of about 4,000 feet. The population of the city of Rewaunee is about 2,000. It is the eastern terminus of the Ke- waunee, Green Bay & Western Railroad. Existing project.—This ſº. for protecting the mouth of the Rewaunee River by parallel piers, 200 feet apart, and for a channel 2,200 feet long, 160 feet wide and 18 feet deep at low-water datum ºhat depth in the lake to an interior turning basin of the same depth. * - ºracier and extent of commerce.—Ninety-five per cent of the commerce is carried by car-ferry steamers plying between Kewaunee and ports on the east shore of Lake Michigan. The greater part of this is through commerce. . Local receipts other than car ferry con- sist of miscellaneous merchandise; shipments are dairy and other farm products. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts 46,055 tons, value $5,490,499; shipments 125,133 tons, value $10,200,472; total 171,188 tons, value $15,690,971. - Size and type of vessels.--Car-ferry steamers are from 259 to 360 feet in length and have a carrying capacity of from 24 to 34 cars on a draft of 17% feet. Other vessels consist of steamers, barges, sailing craft, and fishing boats; maximum size about 2,000 tons; maximum draft about 17 feet. 1592 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The Ann Arbor Railroad operates car-ferry steamers between Kewaunee and Frankfort, §. the latter being the western terminus of the railroad. The car-ferry terminal consists of a slip, counterbalanced apron, and trackage con- necting with the Kewaunee, Green Bay & Western Railroad, the owner of the terminal. Package freight is handled at two wharves, combined frontage 830 feet, one owned and operated by the Kewaunee, Green Bay & Western Railroad Co., the other by the Kewaunee Dock Co. Both wharves have rail connection and are provided with warehouses; ; wharf is equipped with mechanical appliances for handling reight. či, hay, coal, etc., are received and shipped at a private wharf, 450 feet frontage. The wharf has an elevator, 20,000 bushels ca- acity, a warehouse, and a storage capacity of 3,000 tons of coal. t has rail connection, but aside from grain elevator has no mechan- ical appliances for handling freight. - Fishing industries occupy 225 feet of frontage, used by various fishermen. A construction plant and storage depot of the United States Engineer Department occupy 370 feet frontage. There is no rail connection. Port administration.—There is no harbor master or other local official in charge of the port. Wharfage charges of from 10 to 15 per cent of water freight rates are made by private owners, whose wharves are open to all vessels on like terms for like service. There is no publicly owned or controlled wharf. Adequacy # present terminals.-The commerce of the port is almost entirely handled by car ferry. The car-ferry terminal is well adapted for the purpose. The local commerce is very small with little pros- pect of any material increase. The existing terminals are sufficient to care for present and prospective commerce, except that better facilities should be provided for receiving coal. There is not much evidence of general interest in improving and utilizing terminals. No improvements of note have been made for many years. Aside from car-ferry traffic, there is but little interchange of traffic between boat and rail. TWO RIVERS HARBOR, WIs. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan at the mouth of the Twin Rivers, and distant about 79 miles northerly from Milwaukee. It consists of a basin having an area of about 4 acres and a channel protected by piers extending therefrom to deep water in Lake Michigan. The commercial harbor is along the Twin Rivers and has an available frontage of about 7,000 feet. The city of Two Rivers has a population of about 5,200. It is the terminus of a branch line of the Chicago & North Western Railway from Manitowoc; it also has connection with Manitowoc by electric railway. Existing project.—This provides for two entrance piers at the mouth of Twin Rivers, 245 feet apart at the outer ends and 750 feet apart at the shore line; for a channel 2,500 feet long and 14 feet deep at low water datum, extending from that depth in the lake to an inner basin at the confluence of the East and West Twin Rivers; WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1593 for a revetment about 450 feet long on the north side and at inner end of the channel; and for a small stilling basin beyond the shore line on the north side of the channel. Character and eatent of commerce.—This consists of coal, which constitutes 91 per cent of the total tonnage, wood, fish, and miscel- laneous commodities. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts 30,392 tons, value $343,406; shipments 534 tons, value $69,643; total 30,926 tons, value $413,049. Size and type of vessels.-Wessels include steamers up to about 2,000 tons, barges, sailing vessels, and fishing craft; limit of draft, about 14 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Coal for local use and reshipment is received at a wharf having 900 feet frontage. The wharf is equipped with two traveling steam hoists and has a storage capacity of 13,000 tons. It has rail connection. The city of Two Rivers owns and operates a wharf of about 400 feet frontage, without warehouse, mechanical unloading appliances, or rail connection. - Crushed stone is received at a wharf, 120 feet frontage. It has no mechanical unloading appliances. Stone is delivered by self-unload- ing vessels. The wharf has rail connection. Wood for local use and reshipment is received at a wharf, 250 feet frontage. This wharf has rail connection, but no mechanical unload- ing appliances. It is owned by the city of Two Rivers and is leased to occupant. - Lumber is received at two wharves, each owned by occupant. These wharves have a combined frontage of 830 feet. Both have rail connections, but no mechanical unloading appliances. Fishing industries occupy 1,810 feet of frontage. The wharves have neither rail connections nor mechanical appliances. Port administration.—There is no harbor master or other local official in charge of the port. The city owns 2 wharves, 1 open to public use without wharfage charges, the other leased to occupant. Adequacy of present terminals.-The commerce of the port, which is now about stationary, consists principally of coal. The facilities for unloading and storage are adequate for #. needs. There are practically no package freight receipts or shipments. The tributary back country is limited in extent, and owing to that and to the proximity of Manitowoc, distant about 5 miles, no important com- merce can be expected. It is believed, however, that a suitable warehouse should be provided for the municipal wharf and more use made of the harbor than at present. MANITOWOC HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan at the mouth of the Manitowoc River, distant about 76 miles northerly from Milwaukee. It consists of a basin having an area of about 78 acres, formed by inclosing a portion of Lake Michi- gan within breakwaters. The commercial harbor is in the Mani- towoc River, and has an available frontage of about 3% miles. The city of Manitowoc has a population of about 15,200. The city is on the Chicago & North Western Railway, and is the eastern terminus of a branch line of the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Rail- way. An electric railway connects Manitowoc with Two Rivers. 1594 • WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Existing project.—This provides for an outer harbor or stilling basin formed by 2 breakwaters, and for a channel 18 feet deep at low-water datum extending from that depth in the lake through the outer harbor to the mouth of the river, a total length of about 2,000 feet, with a width of about 500 feet. -- Character and extent of commerce.—Seventy-five per cent of the water-borne commerce is carried by car ferry steamers, plying between Manitowoc and ports on the east shore of Lake Mid; The car ferry commerce is miscellaneous in character and consti- tutes 95 per cent of the valuation of the total commerce. Of com- merce, other than car ferry, coal constitutes 97 per cent of receipts, and oats 83 per cent of shipments; the remaining commerce is mis- cellaneous in character. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts 918,188 tons, value $80,015,799; shipments 835,039 tons, value $58,278,590; total 1,753,227 tons, value $138,294,589. Size and type of vessels.--Car ferry steamers are from 259 to 360 feet in length, and have a carrying capacity of from 24 to 34 cars on a draft of 17% feet. All classes of vessels, from the largest lake steamers to fishing tug and pleasure craft make use of this harbor. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Car ferry traffic is handled at 2 terminals, 1 owned by the Chicago & North Western Railway Co. and the other by the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Rail- way Co. The car ferry terminals consist of slips with counter- balanced aprons, and trackage connecting with the Chicago & North Western and Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railways. Coal for local use and reshipment is received at 6 wharves, having a combined frontage of 3,035 feet. All wharves are well equipped with appliances for unloading vessels, consisting of fixed towers, traveling bridge hoists, and locomotive cranes. All but 1 wharf have rail connection. The combined storage capacity is about 270,000 tons. Grain and other similar commodities are shipped from three wharves having a combined frontage of 900 feet. Two wharves are provided with elevators and have rail connection. One elevator has a ca- pacity of 1,750,000 bushels; the other elevator is of small capacity. Package freight is received and hiº at two wharves, each provided with adequate warehouse, but neither equipped with mechanical appliances for handling freight. One wharf, owned and operated by the Goodrich Transit Line of steamers, has no rail con- nection; the other, owned and operated by the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway 3. has rail connection, with inter- change of traffic between rail and water. - The shipyard of the Manitowoc Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Co. occupies 2,000 feet frontage. The yard is well equipped for con- structing and repairing vessels, both steel and wood. It has two dry docks, one graving dock, capacity 350 by 44 by 12% feet, and one floating dock, capacity 420 by 70 by 14 #. The yard has rail connection. - - Private wharves, used for receiving steel plate, for moorage of plant and storage of contractors' materials, and for fishing occupy about 350 feet frontage. A wharf with 200 feet frontage, formerly used for receiving lumber by vessel, is not in use at present. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1595 Port administration.—The harbor is under the local direction of a harbor master appointed by the board of aldermen. There are on wharfage charges. There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves. Adequacy of present terminals.-Coal receipts and car ferry traffic constitute 97 per cent of the total commercial water-borne tonnage. The car ferry and coal terminals are well adapted for their purpose. While the present wharfage facilities are probably adequate for handling the present remaining tonnage, aggregating about 50,000 tons, the city should provide a suitable wharf with warehouse and rail connection, which should be open to the general public on like terms for like service. • Special considerations.—Two of the coal wharves, known as the upper and lower Reiss docks, are especially well equipped with most modern, coal-handling machinery, similar to that used at Milwaukee and other large coal-receiving ports. Manitowoc is essentially a port of transshipment; probably not over 10 per cent of the com- mercial tonnage is local. The greater part of this transshipment is by car ferry and does not represent interchange between rail and water in the full meaning of the term, the loaded cars being simply carried across the lake from one railroad to another. Actual inter- change of traffic between rail and water is effected at the grain elevator of the Bartlett-Fraser Co., and at the package-freight wharf of the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway Co. Such water-borne traffic as is local is mostly handled at the wharf of the Goodrich Transit Co., which has no railway connection, and while Fººd with a substantial and commodious warehouse, this wharf as no special appliances for handling freight, which is done by use of hand trucks. Although the strictly local commerce is small in quantity and relative importance, there is considerable public inter- est manifested in the harbor. The river channel is well maintained by and at the expense of the municipality. This channel has re- cently been extended by the municipality about one-half mile farther upstream. The total commercial tonnage is large, being second only to Milwaukee among harbors north of Chicago on west shore of Lake Michigan. SHEBOYGAN HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan at the mouth of the Sheboygan River, distant about 52 miles northerly from Milwaukee. It consists of a basin having an area of about 102 acres, formed by inclosing a portion of Lake Michi- gan within breakwaters. The commercial harbor is located within the Sheboygan River, and has an available wharfage of about 24 miles. The population of the city of Sheboygan is about 30,000. The city is on the line of the Chicago & North Western Ry., between Milwaukee and Ashland, Wis., and is the eastern terminus of a branch of the same railway extending to Fond du Lac and other oints west. It is the northern terminus of the Milwaukee Northern ailway, an electric railroad between Milwaukee and Sheboygan. Existing project.—This provides for an outer harbor or stilling basin formed by two breakwaters and for a channel 19 feet deep at low-water datum from that depth in the lake through the outer 1596 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. harbor to the mouth of the river, a total length of about 3,000 feet, having a width of about 360 feet. Character and extent of commerce.—This commerce consists nearly altogether of coal receipts, which amount to about 97% per cent of the total receipts and shipments. Of the remaining commerce the most important items are leather, wood veneer and seating, and dairy products. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts 698,133 tons, value $5,284,205; shipments 5,397 tons, value $2,641,579; total 703,530 tons, value $7,925,724. Size and type of vessels.-Wessels using this port are of all types of lake vessels except car ferry steamers. The largest coal carriers, drawing 19% to 20 feet and having cargoes of 10,000 to 12,000 tons, arrive at this port. There are the usual number of small fishing boats and other similar craft. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Coal is received at two wharves. One wharf, owned and operated by the C. Reiss Coal Co., has a frontage of 2,560 feet and storage capacity of about 475,000 tons. This wharf is equipped with most modern coal-handling machinery, consisting of fixed tower and traveling bridge hoists, and has rail connection. A large amount of the coal received at this wharf is reshipped by rail. A small wharf, 480 feet frontage, capacity 16,000 tons, receives coal for local use only. This wharf is equipped with adequate unloading apparatus, but has no rail connection. Wood is received at two wharves. One wharf has rail connection, and wood is reshipped. The other wharf has no rail connection and the wood received is for local use only. Neither wharf has any mechanical appliances for handling freight. - Lumber for local manufacturing purposes is received at two wharves, both privately owned. A third wharf, with 400 feet front- age, formerly used for similar purposes, is not in present use. The two wharves now in use have rail connection; the unused wharf has no rail connection. Neither wharf has any mechanical appliances for handling freight. Tan bark is received at a wharf leased and operated by the Badger State Tanning Co. This wharf has railway connection, but no mechanical appliances for handling freight. - Package freight and passengers are handled at the wharf owned and operated by the Goodrich Transit Co. This wharf has an ade- uate warehouse, but no mechanical appliances for handling freight. t has connection with the Milwaukee Northern Railway (electric), and reshipments are made thereby. The wharf has no other rail connection. Fishing industries occupy 860 feet of frontage. None of these wharves has rail connection. Port administration.—The port is under local charge of a harbor master appointed by the city. There are no established wharfage charges and no publicly owned or controlled wharf other than street ends, some of which are used by fishermen. Adequacy of present terminals.-As before stated, 97% per cent of the commercial tonnage is coal, and adequate facilities are provided at the existing coal wharves. The remaining tonnage, about 18,750 tons, is largely handled by the Goodrich Transit Co., whose terminal is adequate for its present and prospective business. While present terminal facilities are probably ample for existing commerce, it is believed that a city of the size and importance of Sheboygan should WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1597 provide a municipal wharf with warehouse and rail connection which should be open to the public on like terms for like service. There is not much evidence of any general interest in improving and utilizing existing terminal facilities. Except for the large coal wharf of the C. Reiss Coal Co., where most modern appliances have been installed, no improvements of note have been made for many years. Special considerations.—So far as water-borne commerce is con- cerned, Sheboygan is essentially a one-commodity port, and that commodity—coal—is handled almost entirely by one company. The water commerce is extremely unbalanced, receipts constituting over 99 jº cent of the total tonnage. On the other hand, shipments, while small in tonnage, constitute about one-third of the total valua- tion of water-borne commerce, being commodities of relatively high value, such as leather, manufactured articles, and dairy products. There is a considerable back country tributary to Sheboygan, and it is believed if better terminal facilities were provided for receiving and shipping miscellaneous freight, a considerably increased coast- wise trade could be developed. PORT WASHINGTON HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, about 25 miles north from Milwaukee. The harbor is entirely artificial, consisting of two basins, the north basin having an area of 3} acres and the west basin 13 acres, and of a channel in Lake Michigan protected by parallel piers. The commercial harbor is in the basins, and has an available frontage of about 3,000 feet. The city of Port Washington has a population of about 4,000, and is on the line of the Chicago & North Western Railway between Mil- waukee and Manitowoc. It is also on the Milwaukee Northern Railway, an electric road between Milwaukee and Sheboygan. Existing project.—This provides for two parallel piers about 150 feet apart, and for a channel 16 feet deep at low-water datum from § epth in the lake leading to two interior basins having the same epth. *racter and extent of commerce.—This consists of coal, salt, and dairy and agricultural products. It is entirely local. Total com- merce for 1918: Receipts 6,869 tons, value $179,522; shipments 505 tons, value $143,907; total 7,374 tons, value $323,429. Size and type of vessels.-Vessels include steamers up to about 2,000 tons, barges and sailing craft; also fishing boats. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Coal for local consumption is received at a small wharf equipped with stationary electric hoists. Coal for use of the Milwaukee Northern Railway is received at a wharf owned by the company. The combined capacity of both wharves is 10,000 tons. Both wharves have rail connection. Package freight is received at a small wharf, provided with ware- house and rail connection, but with no mechanical unloading devices. The wharf is owned and controlled by the city of Port Washington, and was formerly used by the Hill Steamboat Line. It is not used regularly at present. Lumber for manufacturing purposes is received at the wharf of the Wisconsin Chair Co. It has rail connection, but no mechanical appliances. 1598 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Manufacturers' supplies are received at wharf of Turner Manufac- turing Co. It has no mechanical appliances or rail connection. Six wharves for fishing purposes, some with warehouses, occupy 540 feet of frontage in various parts of the harbor. Crushed stone is shipped from a private pier located on the lake shore about 8 miles north from Port Washington. This pier is about 500 feet long extending from the shore into the lake. Material is carried in cable cars from the crushing plant to bins provided with chutes for loading boats. Prior to 1914 two boats were operated; since then one only. The boat has 1,100 tons capacity and is self- unloading by means of hoppers, belt conveyors, and elevators. Port administration.—The port is in charge of a harbor master, appointed by the city. A small public wharf is maintained by the city at which no wharfage charge is made. - º Adequacy of present terminals.-There has been a marked decline in commerce in recent years. Owing to the small extent of back country, a large commerce can not be expected. No improvements by the city have been made for some years. The existing facilities are poor and the city wharf should be repaired, improved, and put to greater use. MILWAUKEE HARBOR, WIS. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan at the mouth of the Milwaukee River, distant about 85 miles northerly from Chicago. It consists of a channel protected by piers, and of an outer basin having an area of about 650 acres, over 275 acres of which there is a depth of 18 feet and greater, in which vessels seeking safety from storms can be moored. The basin is pro- tected by a breakwater extending from the shore in a general south- easterly direction, 8,610 feet long. The commercial harbor is located in the Milwaukee, Menomonee, and Kinnickinnic Rivers and, including canals and private slips, has an available wharfage of about 9% miles. The population of Milwaukee is probably about 450,000, although it is claimed to be over 500,000. The city is on the main lines of the Chicago & North Western Railway, and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway; it is also reached by the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie Railway over the tracks of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway. Electric interurban lines running to Chicago and Sheboygan carry freight to a limited extent. Existing project. This provides for a breakwater 8,610 feet long; for protection of the river mouth by two piers; for a channel 19 feet deep at low water datum, extending from that depth in the lake to the mouth of the river; for widening the river channel along Jones Island to about 350 feet; for the formation of two turning basins, each about 650 feet in diameter, in the Kinnickinnic River; for widening the Kinnickinnic River to 200 feet below Clinton Street; for dredging off certain points in the Menomonee River; all channels and basins to have a depth of 19 feet below low water datum. Character and extent of commerce.—Receipts consist principally of coal, iron ore, and miscellaneous merchandise. Shipments consist principally of grain and general merchandise. Eleven per cent of the receipts and 48 per cent of the shipments are by car ferry steamers plying between Milwaukee and points on the east shore of Lake H.

Michigan. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts, 5,475,340 tons, value $136,064,801; shipments, 1,611,210 tons, value $226,500,061; total, 7,086,550 tons, value $362,564,868. Size and type of vessels.--All sizes and types of lake vessels, from the largest lake steamers to fishing tugs, make use of this port. Car ferry steamers are from 259 to 360 feet in length and have a carrying capacity of from 24 to 34 cars on a draft of 17% feet. The largest Vessels bringing coal have a cargo capacity of about 12,000 tons on 19% to 20 feet draft. º Terminal and transfer facilities.—There are two car ferry slips, both located on the Kinnickinnic River not far above its mouth; one, located on the right bank, owned and operated by the Grand Trunk Railway Co. between this port and Grand Haven, Mich., having a frontage of 580 feet and storage capacity of 100 cars on tracks; the other, on left bank, owned and operated by the Pere Marquette Rail- way Co. between this port and Ludington, Mich., having a frontage of 430 feet and storage capacity of 135 cars on tracks. Each ter- minal consists of a slip with counterbalanced apron. The Chicago & North Western and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railways are joint carriers with the Grand Trunk Ferry; the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway is joint carrier with the Pere Marquette Ferry. The two car ferries carry about 19 per cent of the total freight tonnage of the port, with 51 per cent of its total value. Coal is received at 25 wharves, having a combined frontage of 25,675 feet and combined storage capacity of 3,583,000 tons; 13 are on the Menomonee River, frontage 14,210 feet, storage 2,322,000 tons; 6 on the Kinnickinnic River, frontage 7,370 feet, storage 1,030,000 tons; 6 on the Milwaukee River, frontage 4,095 feet, storage 231,000 tons. The wharves are generally, equipped, with modern coal- handling appliances, consisting mainly of traveling bridge hoists with Steam or electric power. Coal is distributed on the wharves by cars, generally cable driven, traveling on a continuous track. The Mil- Waukee Coke & Gas Co. uses a very extensive and modern belt con- Yeyor of 600 to 700 tons hourly capacity, which is very efficient. Probably about 40 per cent of the coal received is transshipped to the interior by railway. All but three wharves, located on the Mil- waukee River, have rail connection. Cars are usually loaded from hº alongside of the track. ement is received and reshipped at a wharf on South Menomonee Canal. This wharf has a frontage of 325 feet, and is provided with Warehouse of storage capacity for 30,000 barrels. It has rail connec- tion, but no mechanicaſ appliances for handling freight. Crushed stone is received at three wharves, having a combined frontage of 1,705 feet and storage capacity of 18,700 tons. The largest one is owned and operated by the Illinois Steel Co., the stone received being flux stone. This wharf has a storage capacity of 15,000 tons, and has rail connection. The wharf is not equipped with mechanical unloading appliances, the stone being delivered by self- unloading vessels. Stone for local use is received at the other two wharves, both leased by the Lake Shore Stone Co. One wharf, located on the South Menomonee Canal, has rail connection; the other, on the Milwaukee River, has no rail connection. Stone is delivered on wharves by self-unloading vessels. 1600 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. There are two dry docks for repairs of vessels, both owned and operated by the Milwaukee Dry Dock Co., and both having rail con- nection. The docks are provided with general equipment for making Vessel repairs. Shipments of flour and feed are made from two wharves belonging to milling companies located on the Milwaukee River, having a com- bined frontage of 200 feet. Each wharf is equipped with warehouse and has rail connection; combined capacity of warehouses is 10,000 tons; neither wharf has any mechanica Pºiº Grain is received by rail and reshipped by water at five wharves, having a combined frontage of 2,040 feet. All wharves have rail connection and are provided with elevators; the combined elevator capacity is 4,650,000 bushels. With the exception of the Riebs elevator, all wharves and elevators are owned by railroad companies. Iron ore is received at two wharves, combined frontage and stor- age capacity, 1,830 feet and 190,000 tons, respectively. Each wharf has rail connection and is equipped with electrically operated hoists or unloaders of 200 to 400 tons capacity. Lumber is received at nine wharves, having a combined frontage and storage capacity of 6,515 feet and 46,500,000 feet b. m., respec- tively. All but one wharf have rail connection. None has any mechanical appliances. Marine construction plants occupy four wharves, having a com- bined frontage of 3,435 feet. One wharf is equipped with traveling crane, repair shops, and storage warehouses, and one with floating derrick; the other two have no mechanical appliances. Three wharves have rail connection. Package freight is received and shipped at eight wharves, having a combined frontage and warehouse capacity of 4,378 feet, and 29,300 tons, respectively. Four wharves have railway connection; the other four have none. All wharves are provided with warehouses, but none has any mechanical ** for handling freight. Six wharves are operated exclusively by regular steamboat lines; pro- vision for passenger service is made at four of these wharves. One wharf, owned and operated by the Chicago & North Western Rail- way Co., is available for vessels delivering freight to the railway. One wharf, with a frontage of 800 feet and warehouse capacity of 10,000 tons, is open to all vessels delivering freight for storage. Salt is received and reshipped at two wharves, combined frontage and capacity, 1,100 feet and 105,000 tons, respectively. Each wharf is provided with warehouse, has two derrick hoists for handling freight, and has rail connection. Sand for local use is received at two wharves, combined frontage and capacity, 285 feet and 11,000 cubic yards, respectively. Neither wharf has rail connection or is equipped with mechanical unloading appliances. Shipbuilding is carried on at two yards, having a combined front- age of 2,300 feet. Both yards have rail connection and are equipped with necessary launchways, marine railway, shops, sheds, etc. Tan bark for use of local tanneries is received at three wharves, owned by the leather companies using same. These wharves have a combined frontage and storage capacity of 1,070 feet and 4,700 cubic yards, respectively. One wharf has rail connection, the other two have not. One wharf is equipped with electric hoists for unloading H.

One wharf has rail connection, the other has not. Neither wharf has any mechanical appliances. - The repair and supply depot of the Twelfth Lighthouse district Occupies 320 feet of frontage. The depot has rail connection, storage yard, repair shops, warehouse, etc. Four wharves, formerly used for receiving and shipping package freight, are not in use at present. These wharves were used by Various lines of steamboats owned by railroad companies, until the provisions of the Panama act became effective on July 1, 1914. These wharves have a combined frontage of 1,950 feet and have rail connection. - Three wharves formerly used for receiving tan bark, cedar posts, etc., are no longer in use, the commodities formerly received by vessel now being received by rail. All have rail connection. Port administration.—The port is in local charge of a harbor master, appointed by the city, and reporting to the commissioner of public works. A harbor commission, authorized by the State and appointed by the mayor of the city, acts in an advisory capacity. The commission studies commercial, and shipping interests, is in- strumental in acquiring titles to necessary lands, makes recom- mendations for harbor improvement and reports annually to the city council. It has no authority, however, to expend funds or to direct works of improvement. It is expected, however, that legis- lation now pending will make the commission more independent, and that it will be made an executive body with full power to carry out improvements under its direction. The commission as at present constituted, consists of 10 members, of whom Mr. Wm. Geo. Bruce is president and Mr. Herman Bleyer is secretary. There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves, except such as exist at street ends. Public storage is available at a wharf owned by the E. H. Abbott estate, on the left bank of Milwaukee River, about 800 feet from its mouth. Storage charges are from 25 cents to 50 cents per ton per month. Adequacy of present terminals.-The present terminals and facili- ties are inadequate for existing commerce, and at times the harbor is much congested. The congestion in the commercial harbor is shown by the fact that the harbor of refuge is principally used by vessels awaiting opportunity to enter the inner harbor and proceed to their destinations. The coal wharves are well equipped with modern machinery, and vessels are quickly unloaded when once moored at the wharves. Great delays in reaching the wharves fre- quently occur, however, due to insufficient wharfage, necessitating the anchoring of the vessel in outer harbor until wharf is vacant, and to the narrow, tortuous river channels, spanned by numerous bridges. The car ferry terminals are well adapted to their purpose, and but little time is lost in the movement of car ferry steamers. The freight carried by car ferry forms an important part of the commerce of the port. Coal receipts and car ferry traffic constitute about 80 per cent of the total commercial water-borne tonnage. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—101 1602 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The inadequacy of the harbor to care for present commerce has been recognized by the commercial interests of Milwaukee for many years, and efforts have been made from time to time to cooperate with the Government in the utilization and improvement of present facilities. Heretofore, these efforts have been more or less spas- modic, owing to changes in city administration, and the need of funds for other necessary improvements. Plans are now in prepara- tion for a material enlargement of harbor and terminal facilities, harbor bonds have been authorized, and the community is showing an earnest interest in the improvement and enlargement of the harbor. Special considerations.—The water-borne commerce of Milwaukee is very unbalanced. In 1918, receipts by vessel, other than car-ferry steamers, were 4,885,911 tons, while corresponding shipments were only 840,838 tons, a ratio of about six to one. The commercial ton- nage by car ferry, which forms 19 per cent of the total tonnage, is much more evenly balanced. In 1918, receipts by car ferry were 589,429 tons and shipments 770,372 tons. The great bulk of the receipts by vessels other than car ferries, consists of coal, aggregating in 1918, 4,285,153 tons. Grain constituted in 1918, 46 per cent of the total tonnage shipped by vessels other than car ferries. Probably about 40 per cent of the coal received, or about 1,700,000 tons, was reshipped by rail to western points. Grain shipments by vessel aggregated 386,778 tons, so that coal tonnage by rail to western points exceeded grain receipts from same sources by more than 1,300,000 tons. It is believed more and better facilities should be created for the shipment of grain by vessel, and that efforts should be made to increase water shipments of grain, as apparently only thereby can the present unbalanced water-borne commerce be partly equalized. More railroads are needed, and better facilities for quick transfers between vessel and car should be provided. A municipally owned and controlled belt railway would give railroads, other than those entering Milwaukee, access to the port, without incurring the heavy expense incident to securing a right of way into the city. Pending construction of the outer harbor, use should be made of wharves which are at present abandoned or unused. There is a lack of public warehouses conveniently located to the business district. At present cartage and drayage constitute too large a percentage of the total transportation charges. The distances from the entrance piers to the heads of navigation on the various rivers and canals are as follows: Milwaukee River, 14,750 feet; Menomonee River, 13,200 feet; South Menomonee Canal, 10,200 feet; Kinnikinnick River, 11,550 feet. The area of property devoted to shipping uses is as follows: Along Milwaukee River, 39.51 acres; Menomonee Valley, 147.24 acres; Kinnikinnick River and basin, 90.39 acres, a total of 277.14 acres.

Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of Root River. It consists of a basin about 50 acres in area, protected by breakwaters. The commercial harbor is in the Root River, which has been dredged and is maintained by the municipality; wharfage of about 3,400 feet frontage is provided. Population of city is about 45,500. The city is on the main line of the Chicago & North Western, between Chicago and Milwaukee, and is the eastern terminus of a branch line of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway. Both these railways reach the commercial harbor. Existing project.—This provides for two breakwaters, extending from the shore on either side of the mouth of Root River, and for a channel varying in width from 650 feet at the outer end to 200 feet at the river mouth, 19 feet deep at low water datum; this channel extends from that depth in the lake a distance of 2,300 feet to the mouth of the river. Character and eatent of commerce.—Receipts, forming 86 per cent of the total tonnage, consist of coal (69 per cent), manufactured iron (4 per cent), and miscellaneous, commodities (13 per cent). Ship- ments consist of manufactured iron (5 per cent), machinery (4 per cent), and miscellaneous commodities (5 per cent). Total commerce for 1918: Receipts, 228,424 tons, value $9,470,118; shipments, 37,240 tons, value, $8,074,096; total, 265,664 tons, value $17,544,214. Size and type of vessels.-Wessels consist of steamers, barges, sailing craft, and fishing tugs. The average steamer in 1918 was about 1,000 registered tons, and sailing craft about 360 tons; maximum size of º about 4,000 registered tons. The limiting draft is about 19 feet. & 1604 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Coal is received at five wharves, all privately owned, having a combined frontage of 2,640 feet, and storage of 91,500 tons. Four wharves have railway connection and are equipped with mechanical unloading devices. The remaining wharf is for storage of coal for a manufacturing plant. Package freight is received and shipped at two wharves, having a combined frontage of 560 feet. These wharves are owned by the regular boat lines using same. Both wharves are provided with ware- houses, but have no mechanical devices for handling package freight. One wharf has railway connection, the other has not. Lumber is received at a wharf having 500 feet frontage. This wharf is privately owned and has rail connection. Numerous small wharves, with a combined frontage of 236 feet, are used for fishing purposes. None of these wharves has rail connection. - Port administration.—The port is in charge of a harbor master appointed by the city. None of the existing wharves is open to the general public. The two package freight wharves are used exclusively by the regular steamboat lines owning same. Adequacy of present terminals.-While the existing terminal facilities are adequate for present commerce, it is believed that a city of the size and commercial importance of Racine should pro- vide an adequate wharf with rail connection. The wharf should be provided with suitable warehouse, equipped with mechanical unload- ing devices. This wharf should be open to all vessels under like terms for like service, and should be controlled by the municipality. Special considerations.—Racine is the second city in size of popula- tion in Wisconsin, and is an important manufacturing town. It, however, ranks eighth among the harbors on the west shore of Lake Michigan in tonnage of water-borne commerce, and fifth in value of such commerce. But little public interest appears to be shown in the harbor. The inner or commercial harbor is not very efficiently maintained by the municipality. Most of the wharves and revet- ments are of pile construction with wood superstructures, and aside from the coal wharves, there is practically no equipment for handling freight. The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Co. owns about 4,060 feet of river frontage, the greater part of which is not used for water-borne commerce. Of this frontage 1,600 feet is not suitable for wharfage purposes. Considering the advantages enjoyed by Racine in the way of railway connections to the south, west, and north, and its large and extensive manufacturing industries, the city has not shown a sufficient public interest in improvement of its inner harbor and its terminal facilities. The water commerce should be greater. KENOSHA HARBOR, WIs. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, distant about 33 miles southerly from Milwaukee. It is at the mouth of Pike Creek, and consists of an interior basin, area about 8 acres, and a channel protected by parallel piers extending from the basin to deep water in Lake Michigan. The entrance is rotected on the north by a detached breakwater. The city of enosha has a population of about 26,500. It is on the main line of the Chicago & North Western Railway between Chicago and WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1605 Milwaukee, and is the eastern terminus of a branch of the same railway running to Rockford, Ill. It is also on the main line of the Chicago, North Shore & Milwaukee Railway, an electric line running between Chicago and Milwaukee. Episting project.—This provides for a detached breakwater 800 feet long, for two parallel piers about 250 feet apart, and for a channel 200 feet wide, 19 feet deep at low-water datum, extending from that * in the lake, a distance of 2,350 feet, to an interior basin, 18. eet Cleep. *iºr and extent of commerce.—This consists of coal, manu- factured brass, leather, fish, and general merchandise. Total com— merce for 1918: Receipts, 32,075 tons; value $4,473,231; shipments, 10,907 tons, value $5,181,301; total, 42,982 tons, value $9,654,532. Size and type of vessels.-Wessels include steamers and sailing craft up to about 4,000 tons; also steam and gasoline launches and fishing craft. Limit of draft about 19 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Coal for local use only is received at three wharves, having a combined frontage of 1,765 feet and storage . of 26,500 tons. Two of the wharves have mechanical unloading devices; the third wharf has none, coal being delivered by self-unloading vessels. The wharf nearest harbor entrance includes 230 feet of frontage leased from the United States, and has rail connection. No rail connection at other wharves. Package freight is received and shipped at one wharf owned and operated by the Hill Steamboat Line. It is provided with ware- house but has no mechanical appliances for handling freight. It has no rail connection. - Lumber is received at a wharf owned and operated by The Simmons Co. This wharf has a capacity of 5,000,000 feet b. m. It has rail connection but no mechanical appliances for handling freight. One wharf with frontage of 488 feet is used by the owner for fishing purposes. Port administration.—There is no harbor master. The port is in charge of the city engineer. There is no publicly owned or controlled wharf, and no wharf open to the general public. Adequacy of present terminals.-Considering the importance of Kenosha as a manufacturing city, but little use is made of the harbor, and but little public interest is manifested in its use and development. Present wharfage is not fully utilized. A public wharf should be provided, which should be open to all vessels on like terms for like service. Better facilities for receiving coal should be provided. At present the greater part of the coal for local use is received by rail. WAUKEGAN HARBOR, ILL. Location and description.—This harbor is on the west shore of Lake Michigan, about 49 miles south of Milwaukee. The harbor is en- tirely artificial, and consists of an interior basin about 14 acres in area and a channel extending therefrom between parallel piers, to deep water in Lake Michigan. The entrance to channel is protected on the north by a detached breakwater. The city of Waukegan has a population of about 19,000; it is on the main line of the Chicago & North Western Railway between Chicago and Milwaukee, and is the northern terminus of the Elgin, Joliet & Eastern Railway, otherwise known as the Outer Belt Line of Chicago; it is also on the main line 1606 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. of the Chicago, North Shore & Milwaukee Railroad, an electric railway between Chicago and Milwaukee. Existing project.—This provides for a detached breakwater 600 feet long; two parallel piers about 240 feet apart; and for a channel 200 feet wide, 18 feet deep at low-water datum; this channel extends from that depth in the lake a distance of 2,000 feet to an interior basin of the same depth, protected on the east side by a revetment 882 feet long. Character and extent of commerce.—This consists of coal, manufac- tured brass, steel and iron, salt, fish, and general merchandise. The receipts of coal constitute 87 per cent of the total commerce, both receipts and shipments, of the port. Total commerce for 1918: Receipts, 150,021 tons, value $4,729,682; shipments, 4,495 tons, value, $2,744,794; total, 154,516 tons; value, $7,474,476. Size and type of vessels.-Coal-carrying vessels have a capacity of about 4,000 tons. The limit of draft is about 19 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Coal is received for local use and reshipment at a private wharf located on both sides of a slip immedi- ately north of the Government basin. The wharf has a frontage of 2,300 feet and a storage capacity of 105,000 tons. It is equipped with traveling bridge hoists for unloading vessels. A small wharf 100 feet frontage, equipped with steam bucket hoists, has a storage capacity of 8,000 tons. Both wharves have railway connection. Package freight is handled at a small wharf, owned by the city of Waukegan, and leased to a steamboat line. This wharf is provided with warehouse, but has no mechanical appliances for º: and unloading vessels. There is no railway connection. Salt is received and reshipped by rail at a private slip. The wharf has a storage capacity of 14,500 tons. The wharf has rail connection, but no mechanical appliances for unloading vessels. Ties, timber, etc., are received for creosoting at a private wharf. Materials are handled by locomotive cranes. The wharf has rail connection. - A small wharf, owned and operated by the city of Waukegan, is used for receiving crushed stone and other materials for local use. It has no railway connection. - Fishing occupies about 300 feet of wharfage, owned by the city of Waukegan, and leased to various parties; no rail connection. Port administration.—The port is in charge of a harbor master, appointed by the city. The total improved wharf frontage is about 4,300 feet, of which about 87 per cent is owned by the Elgin, Joliet & Eastern Railroad Co., and the remainder by the city of Waukegan. With the exception of a small municipal wharf, the use of which is either free or at nominal charge, all wharfage is leased either to boat lines or other private interests. There are no established wharfage charges. - Adequacy of present terminals.--While existing terminals are ade- quate for present commerce, it is believed that if the municipality took more interest in the harbor, much greater use would be made of it. . Its location, about 35 miles north of Chicago, and at the northern terminus of the Outer Belt Line Railway, should give it special advantages as a receiving port for raw materials, and for shipping out manufactured commodities. The city now owns 570 feet of wharfage, which if more fully and efficiently utilized, should be adequate for all purposes of public wharfage and terminal. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1607 ST. JOSEPH HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—On the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 60 miles from Chicago, formed by junction of St. Joseph and Paw Paw Rivers; extends from Lake Michigan along the city front of St. Joseph to the Benton Harbor Canal and thence along the canal to Benton Harbor. The population of the cities of St. Joseph and Benton Harbor are, respectively, 6,500 and 9,500. There are three steam railroads, the Pere Marquette Railway, the Michigan Central Railroad, and the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis Railway (Big Four); and two electric interurban railways, which carry freight, the Southern Michigan Railway and the Benton Harbor-St. Joe Rail- way and Light Co. - - Existing project.—For an entrance channel from Lake Michigan protected by piers and revetments, with depths below low water (579.6) of 18 feet from Lake Michigan to the Benton Harbor Canal, and of 15 feet in the canal.

Size and type of vessels.-Vessels include side wheel and propeller steamers up to 1,600 net registered tons. Maximum length, 291 feet; breadth, 48 feet; draft, 16 feet. - Terminal and transfer facilities.—The water-borne commerce, largely package freight, is carried by two regular boat lines running to Chicago, the Graham & Morton Transportation Co. and the Benton Transit Co., and a few bulk freight boats carrying sand, gravel, and crushed stone. The Graham & Morton Transportation Co. owns a very complete terminal at the junction of the St. Joseph and Paw Paw Rivers, with ample warehouses, offices, repair shop, driveways, and railway tracks, with capacity for 12 cars at a time, this feature being used largely to transfer fruit and vegetables from the electric rail- ways. There is berthing space at the warehouses for two large or three small steamers. The Benton Transit Co. has its own terminal on the south side of the canal with warehouse and rail connection with the electric rail- wavs. It also uses the E. A. Graham estate wharf near the inner end of the Government piers, where there is a good warehouse with connection with the Pere Marquette Railway. Individual wharves are available on the St. Joseph water front and along the canal for transfer of special cargoes, but there is very little commerce of this nature. 1608 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control.-The movement of shipping is subject to the direction of a harbor master as far as the authority of the city of Benton Harbor extends. There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves except a few street ends, and these are available only for small boats. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—The regular boat lines have provided all that is necessary for package freight business. Various attempts have been made in the past to build up bulk freight business of various kinds (grain elevator, car ferry, lumber, salt, etc.), but it has practically disappeared. Both regular boat lines prorate with all steam and electric lines. The Michigan Central Railway wharf, centrally located on the St. Joseph water front, with rail and water connection, is not kept in repair, there being no demand for its use. This would make an ideal location for a public wharf where Government dredges and other vessels could coal and receive supplies. Numerous sites are available on the Benton Harbor Canal for a similar public wharf with rail connections. - SOUTH HAVEN HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is located on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 77 miles from Chicago, and consists of the lower part of Black River, which flows into theiake through a ehannel protected by revetments and piers. The city of South Haven, with a population of 4,000 is situated on both sides of the harbor. There are two railroads, the Michigan Central Railroad and the Kalamazoo, Lake Shore & Chicago Railway. Existing project.—This is for an entrance channel 19 feet deep between piers and revetments and 17 feet deep in the river to the bridge, ending in a winding basin 300 feet wide. The depths are below low water (579.6 feet). Character and extent of water commerce, 1918. Receipts. Shipments. - Items. Tons. Value. Items. TOns.

Size and type of vessels.—Vessels include coastwise and translake steamers up to 544 net registered tons, with a maximum length of 171 feet, breadth 30 feet, and draft 14 feet, and an occasional steamer carrying crushed stone having 953 net registered tons, length 214 feet, breadth 36 feet, and draft 15 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—With the exception of crushed stone the water-borne commerce is practically all package freight and is carried by the Chicago & South Haven Steamship Co., which oper- ates one steamer between Chicago and South Haven. The terminal WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1609 is on the southerly side of the harbor at the inner end, adjoining the highway bridge and is well equipped with office and warehouse. The most important freight is fruit and vegetables, received largely by team from the surrounding country. This terminal is used also by the East Shore Line of Saugatuck, which operates small steamers connecting with the Chicago line. There are several privately owned wharves which are in very poor condition and seldom used. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control.—The city has a harbor master. There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves, except the end of a city street, which is open to such small boats as can use it. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—The facilities for package freight business are ample, the volume of freight being ji". the present boat line, which con- nects with both railroads and interchanges and prorates for through traffic. There is no suitable wharf for handling crushed stone or for coaling vessels such, even, as the Government dredge. Suitable sites for such use, with rail connections, exist on the south side of the harbor, but are in such poor repair as to be unserviceable, and there appears to be no disposition on the part of the business interests to improve the conditions. SAUGATUCK HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 90 miles from Chicago. It consists of Kalamazoo Lake, less than a mile long, and thence Kalamazoo River for about 2 miles, to Lake Michigan, which it enters through a channel about 2,600 feet long, between revetments and piers 200 feet apart. The village of Saugatuck, with a population of 800, is on the north side of Kalamazoo Lake, and the village of Douglas, with a population of 500, is on the south side. The village of Saugatuck is the terminus of the Grand Rapids, Holland, and Chicago branch of the Michigan Railway Co., an electric line. There is no steam railroad. Eristing project.—This provides for an entrance channel from Lake Michigan 16 feet deep between piers and revetments, and thence 14 feet deep and 90 feet wide in the river to Kalamazoo Lake, the depths being referred to low water (579.6).

Size and type of vessels.-Wessels include small coastwise steamers up to 56 net registered tons having a maximum length of 91 feet, breadth of 20 feet, and draft of 9% feet, and an occasional steamer carrying coal or crushed stone with a maximum of 953 net registered tons, length 214 feet, breadth 36 feet, and draft 15 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—At the village of Saugatuck the East Shore Line, which operates two small steamers to South Haven and Holland, has a landing place, or wharf, 170 feet long with a small warehouse. With the exception of crushed stone, gravel, and coal, this line carries all the water-borne freight, connecting with the Chicago boats at Holland and South Haven, with trips with one boat to Chicago, via South Haven, both spring and fall, when the South Haven boat is not running. There is no regular translake line of boats at present, and the landing place or wharf formerly used by such line is not in use. The electric railway does not connect with the water front. There is a landing pier at the village of Douglas but no regular use is made of it. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control.—The only public landing places are at the ends of streets. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest, and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail-and-water rates.—Repeated, but unsuccessful, efforts have been made by the local interests to establish and maintain a regular line of boats between Saugatuck and Chicago. There has been no regular line since 1915, and the commerce has decreased. The small steam- boats now in operation serve as feeders to the Chicago boats at the two near-by harbors, and the electric railway prorates Saugatuck traffic with the translake boat line at Holland Harbor. HOLLAND HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is located on the east shore of Lake Michigan about 94 miles from Chicago, and consists of Black Lake, about 5 miles long with a general width of from 1,000 to 3,000 feet, and depths of 18 feet or more, and thence a channel about one- half mile long between revetments and piers into Lake Michigan. This channel has a width of 300 feet at the outer end and of 205 to 162 feet in the inner portion. The city of Holland, with a popula- tion of 12,000, is situated at the east end of Black Lake. The Pere Marquette Railway has a belt line along the water front of the city of Holland with spurs to the steamboat wharves and factories. The Grand Rapids, Holland, and Chicago branch of the Michigan Rail- way Co. passes through the city of Holland, with a spur to the main steamboat wharf, skirts along the south side of the lake to Macatawa Park, a large summer resort on Lake Michigan on the south side of the harbor entrance, and has a water terminal, known as the Inter- urban Pier, near the west end of the lake. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 16 feet deep below low water (579.6) protected by piers and revetments from Lake Michigan to Black Lake.

Size and type of vessels.-Vessels include side wheel and propeller steamers up to 1,600 net registered tons. Maximum length 291 feet, breadth 48 feet, draft 16 feet. There are occasional steamers carrying crushed stone and gravel with a maximum of 953 net registered tons, length 214 feet, breadth 36 feet, and draft 15 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The regular boat line, the Graham & Morton Transportation Co., operating between Holland and Chicago, has a terminal at the city of Holland 270 feet long, with warehouses, sheds, driveways, and rail connection with both steam and electric lines; this company uses also the Interurban Pier, near the west end of Black Lake. West of, and adjoining, the Graham & Morton wharf is the Harrington coal wharf, 200 feet long, with coal sheds, and tracks from the steam road. This is open to general use for handling crushed stone, coal, etc. A small steamer operates between Saugatuck and Holland connecting with the Graham & Morton Transportation Co., and using its terminal. Port administration, charges, public ownership and control.—There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves. The Harrington wharf is open to general use with prices fixed according to freight handled. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection and joint rail and water ... "%. the exception of crushed stone, sand and gravel, the water-borne traffic is practically all package freight and the existing terminals are well suited to this business. No coal has been received by water since 1911. The Harrington wharf, if im- proved, and the depth of water at the wharf increased, would answer all requirements for a public wharf, and for coaling such vessels as the Government dredge, which now, in case of low water, has to go to Grand Haven to coal. - Several efforts have been made by the local interests to obtain Government help to increase the depth in Black Lake at the two wharves in the city of Holland, but it has, in each case, been decided that this was purely private work and that all proper Government aid had been given in providing a suitable channel from Lake Michigan to Black Lake. • There is physical rail contact with the water terminals and the steamboat company prorates for traffic with both the steam and electric line. 1612 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. GRAND HAVEN HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is located on the east shore of Lake Michigan, at the mouth of Grand River, about 107 miles by water from Chicago and 84 miles from Milwaukee. The channel between the entrance piers from Lake Michigan has a width of 415 feet at the outer end, narrowing to 390 feet farther in, and extends about 1% miles up the river to the steamboat terminal at Grand Haven, a city of 7,500 population. A branch of the Pere Mar- quette Railway passes through the city and a branch of the Grand Trunk Railway has its terminus here. The Grand Rapids, Gränd Haven & Muskegon Railway, an electric line which carries both passengers and freight ends here. Both steam and electric lines have spurs to the water front and to the factories. Existing project.—This provides for an entrance channel from Lake Michigan, protected by piers and revetments, with a depth of 18 feet below low water (579.6). - Character and extent of water commerce, 1918.

Proportion of above by car ferry 98 per cent, 531,633 tons: value, $43,704,458. Size and type of vessels.-Wessels include: (1) Car ferries with a maximum P 1,755 net registered tons, length 338 feet, breadth 56 feet, and draft 17 feet; (2) translake steamers up to 1,684 net regis- tered tons, having a length of 250 feet, breadth of 46 feet, and draft of 16% feet; (3) several small tugs and steamers engaged in towing gravel scows of 6 feet loaded draft. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The main terminal is that of the Grand Trunk Railway, which extends 1,170 feet along the upper end of the harbor, with car ferry slip, warehouses, railway yard, drive- ways, etc. The car ferry slip occupies a length of about 370 feet and the warehouses 450 feet. The railway company operates two large car ferries, both winter and summer, between Grand Haven and Milwaukee, and, prior to 1918, operated a line of package freight boats on the same run. Only the car ferry portion of the terminal was in use in 1918. - The Goodrich Transit Co. operates a line of boats both winter and Summer between Grand Haven and Chicago, using, under special traffic arrangements, the Robbins wharf, with a length of 280 feet adjoining the Grand Trunk Railway wharf, which is well equipped with warehouse, driveways, and rail connections with both steam and electric lines. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1613 The city has wharves at the ends of two streets, one of which is used by launches and small pleasure boats, and the other, which has a railroad track, is used for coaling such boats as can lie at the end of a street. Fish tugs, gravel scows, and other small vessels have land- ing places along the river. Port administration, charges, public ownership and control.—There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves, except the street ends referred to above. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection and joint rail and water rates.—Both the car ferry and package freight terminals are well suited to existing conditions. The package freight terminal of the Grand Trunk Railway is not in use at present, as the line of boats which formerly ran to Milwaukee has been given up. The rail- way company formerly operated a grain elevator but it was destroyed by fire several years ago and has not been rebuilt. There is a wharf with large warehouse for storage of coal, owned by a local coal dealer, but its use has been abandoned on the ground that this method of handling is not as profitable as by rail. With the exception of the foot of Washington Street, which is suitable only for launches, etc., the city has made no attempt to provide a public wharf, although one is badly needed where coal and construction materials can be trans- ferred between rail and water. The Government dredge, which does a very large amount of work at this harbor, is required to coal at large expense over a private-wharf, from railroad tracks some dis- tance from the water. A suitable wharf for this purpose should be provided. The through traffic, both car ferry and package freight, now has joint rail and water rates. Special considerations.—The car, ferries are operated with little delay, being unloaded and loaded by switching engines, and coaled direct from bottom dumping coal cars, and are thus at a terminal but a short time. The coaling for all other boats is done in a ver inefficient way, the coal being wheeled from railway track to vessel; there should be improved facilities for this. There is little demand for storage space as through freight is sent on at once, and the amount of local freight is small. GRAND RIVER, MICH. Location and description.—The section under improvement extends for 39 miles from Grand Rapids to Grand Haven. The average width in the upper 23 miles is about 400 feet and in the lower 16 miles about 600 #. The available depth at low water in the upper 23 miles is not known, but is probably about 3 feet; the .. depth in the lower 16 miles is 6 feet. The city of Grand Rapids has a population of 145,000. The following villages are located on Grand River at the distances named below Grand Rapids: Grandville 6 miles, population 800; Jenison 7 miles, population 400; Lamont 18 miles, population 300; Eastmanyille 21 miles, population unknown; and Spring Lake 37 miles, population 850. None of these is in any way dependent on the river for transportation and does not make any attempt to use it for commercial purposes. 1614 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Eristing project.—The existing project provides for a channel 6 feet º at low water and 100 feet wide, from Grand Rapids to Grand Haven. No commercial use is made of the river above Lamont.

Terminal and transfer facilities.—At the village of Spring Lake there is a landing place at the end of a street; elsewhere the natural bank of the river is used. Even the city of Grand Rapids has pro- vided no terminal or landing place. Port administratiºn, charges, public ounership, and contrºl.—None. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—The only use made of the river at the present time is the transportation of sand and gravel, on the lower 16 miles of the river, to Grand Haven, or other near-by Lake Michigan harbors, and the rafting of a small quantity of logs in the lower portion of the river. Aside from this no effort is being made to use the river, and the abandonment of the upper portion of the improvement seems desirable. There are large deposits of excellent gravel along the lower portion of the river and its shipment by water should be encour- aged. Joint rail and water rates from Grand Rapids to Chicago via the two electric railways to Grand Haven and Holland, respectively, and thence by boat to Chicago provide a quicker and much more attractive route than by river and lake. MUSKEGON HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan about 113 miles from Chicago and 80 miles from Milwaukee, at the mouth of Muskegon River, which before emptying into Lake Michigan expands into Muskegon Lake, a body of water of navigable depth about 5 miles long. The entrance channel from Lake Michigan to Muskegon Lake has a length of 5,250 feet and a width of 308 feet at the outer end narrowing to 300 feet. The business and commercial interests are all centered at the city of Muskegon, with a population of about 41,000 and rapidly growing, at the inner end and along the south side of Muskegon Lake. There are three steam railroads, the Pere Marquette Railway, which passes through the city, and also operates a beltline around the south side of Muskegon Lake; and the Grand Rapids & Indiana Railroad, and an unimportant branch of the Grand Trunk Railway, each of which has its terminus here. The Grand Rapids, Grand Haven, and Muskegon Railway, an electric line which carries both passengers and freight has its terminus here. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1615 Existing project.—This project provides for a channel from Lake Michigan to Muskegon Lake protected by piers and revetments, 300 feet wide, and 20 feet deep below low water (579.6).

Size and type of vessels.-Vessels include translake freight, and passenger steamers up to 1,700 tons with a maximum length of 250 feet, breadth 46 feet and draft of 17 feet; and several bulk freight º and sailing vessels up to 2,900 tons with a maximum draft of 19 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The terminals are at the city of Muskegon where the most of the business is done at the wharves of the regular boat lines, as there are few bulk freight carriers. The Goodrich Transit Co., which operates a line between Muskegon and Grand Haven and Chicago, has a wharf with warehouse, railroad track, driveway, etc. The Crosby Line, which operates between Muskegon and Milwaukee, uses two wharves, the Grand Rapids & Indiana Railroad wharf, which has warehouse, railroad tracks, etc., and the Grand Trunk Railway wharf, which also has warehouse and railroad track. The Lake Shore Stone Co. uses the wharf of Bauck- necht Bros., which is equipped with machinery for loading broken stone from wharf to cars. The Standard Oil Co. is constructing a wharf and slip on the south side of Muskegon Lake for berthing oil tank vessels, with rail accommodations for loading 12 tank cars at Once. Individual industries have their own wharves and there are a number of wharves no longer in use which were connected with former sawmill industries. Port administration, public ownership, and control.—There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves. The privately owned wharves, if kept in repair, are more than ample for present or prospective COIOlſſlerCe. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection and joint rail and water rates.—In former years the Pere Marquette Railway had a car ferry terminal at the entrance piers, but that and the rail- road track itself were abandoned and removed. There is an abun- dance of old lumber wharves centrally located which have been equipped but have little business and are in poor repair. Several of these have tracks convenient for direct transfer between rail and water. The wharf of the Grand Rapids and Indiana Railway is used for coaling vessels, such as the Government dredge, direct from car I616 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. to vessel. The regular boat lines prorate with the steam and electric roads for through traffic. . The city should use an existing wharf for public purposes and provide proper rail connections. - WHITE LAKE HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 119 miles from Chicago. . It consists of White Lake about 4% miles long and of navigable depth, and of the channel leading to Lake Michigan, about 1,950 feet long and 188 feet wide. At the inner end of White Lake are the villages of Whitehall and Montague with populations of 1,800 and 1,000, respectively; the Pere Marquette #. passes through these villages. Existing project.—The project provides for a channel from Lake Michigan to White Lake, protected by piers and revetments, with a depth of 16 feet at low water (579.6); also for maintenance of the harbor by dredging and minor repairs until August, 1922, and for a reexamination at that time as to the advisability of further im– provement. - - Character and extent of water commerce, 1918.

There is an occasional barge carrying crushed stone with a net registered tonnage of 953 tons, length of 214 feet, breadth of 36 feet, and draft of 15 feet. . - Terminal and transfer facilities.—The main terminal, that used by the Goodrich Transit Co., is at the village of Whitehall, at the inner end of White Lake; other less important and little used wharves are in the same vicinity. At the westerly end of White Lake are several landing piers for summer resort business, which are used by the regular boat line and by small pleasure boats. The Goodrich Transit Co. operates a boat between Chicago and this harbor during the summer resOrt SeaSOn. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control.—The village of Whitehall owns a wharf 200 feet long which is open to general use, charges not known. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection and joint rail and water rates.—As shown above the commerce is steadily decreasing and the question of maintenance after August, 1922, is in question. The terminals are practically as they have been for years and may be considered adequate, at least until the future of the harbor is more definitely known. There is no railroad connection with the wharves at Whitehall, and under present conditions such connection is not deemed important. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1617 PENTWATER HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan about 145 miles from Chicago, at the outlet of Pentwater River, which before entering Lake Michigan expands into Pentwater Lake, a navigable body of water about 2% miles long and one-half mile wide. The channel from Lake Michigan to Pentwater Lake has a length of 2,200 feet and a width of 153 feet at the outer end, nar- rowing to 140 feet. The village of Pentwater, with a population of about 1,000, is on the north side of the lake at the inner end of the entrance channel. The one railroad, the Allegan, Muskegon and Pentwater branch of the Pere Marquette Railway, has its terminus at the west end of Pentwater Lake, on the south side of the entrance channel. Highway connection from the railroad to the village is by means of a publicly operated, free, chain ferry crossing the channel near its inner end. - Existing project.—This provides for an entrance channel from Lake Michigan to Pentwater Lake, protected by piers and revetments, with a depth of 16 feet at low water (579.6). The harbor is in poor condition. The entrance channel has shoaled badly as no dredging has been done since 1916. Character and eatent of water commerce, 1918.-There was no water- borne commerce at Pentwater in 1918. Size and type of vessels.--No boats used this harbor during 1918. In 1917, there was one small gasoline boat of 14 net registered tons, length 46 feet. Prior to 1917 there were translake and coastwise steamers up to 678 net registered tons, length 190 feet, breadth 33 feet, and draft 13 feet. Terminal and transferſº Pere Marquette Railway has a small wharf, or rather landing, near its depot, where traffic has been interchanged when there was a regular boat line. On the north side of Pentwater Lake, at the village, is the wharf, with warehouse, belonging to the Pere Marquette Line Steamers; also a wharf belong- ing to Sands & Maxwell, without a warehouse. A few private ferries have wharves suitable for their own business and in use in former years. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control.—There are no public wharves, other than street ends which are open to such boats as can use them. - Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection and joint rail and water rates.—The existing terminals have proved sufficient for the traffic which existed in the past. There can be little demand for joint rail and water service in view of the large near-by harbor of Ludington, but, if the harbor is maintained, the Pere Marquette Railway wharf should be rebuilt, either by the owner, or other local interests, and provided with a track where at least coal for the Government dredge could be transferred direct from car to vessel. LUDINGTON HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor, located on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 155 miles from Chicago, is the outlet of Pere Marquette River, which before emptying into Lake Michigan 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2 102 1618 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. expands into Pere Marquette Lake a body of water about 2 miles long, one-half mile in average width, and from 20 to 40 feet deep. There is an exterior basin in Lake Michigan formed by two break- waters; the basin is connected with Pere Marquette Lake by a channel about 2,000 feet long, protected by piers and revetments, 250 feet wide at the outer end and narrowing to 183 feet. The city of Ludington, with a population of about 10,000, is on the north and east side of Pere Marquette Lake. This is the terminus of one of the main lines of the Pere Marquette Railway. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 18 feet deep below low water (579.6) from Lake Michigan to Pere Marquette Lake, with an exterior basin formed by two breakwaters, etc., and an entrance channel protected by piers and revetments.

Proportion of above by car ferry, 88.3 per cent, 2,033,265 tons; value, $120,547,172. Size and type of vessels.-Vessels include: (1) car ferries up to 1,961 net registered tons, length 360 feet, breadth 58 feet, and draft 164 feet; (2) translake freight and passenger steamers up to 1,262 net registered tons, length 259 feet, breadth 47 feet, and draft 16 feet; (3) bulk freight steamers and sailing vessels up to 2,200 net gººd tons, length 306 feet, breadth 43 feet, and draft about 18 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The water terminals begin at the northeast corner of the inside lake, in line with the entrance channel. The main terminal is that of the Pere Marquette Railway Co., which extends for a distance of about 2,000 feet, with two car ferry slips, wharves with warehouses and grain elevator, all with railroad con- nections. This company operates a line of car ferries to Milwaukee and Manitowoc during the entire year. This terminal is used also by a regular line of boats running to Milwaukee with bulk and package freight. The regular boat line from Chicago has a wharf with ware- house, but no railroad connection. The city has a small wharf without rail connections; terms of use not known. Along the north and east sides of the lake are wharves of lumber and salt companies with rail connections, the most important being those of the Stearns Salt & Lumber Co., and of the Morton Salt Co., where special cargo boats deliver or receive loads. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control.—The commerce is carried on by boat which own their wharves, or use wharves owned by the shipper with no special charges for such use. There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves except the one small wharf referred to above. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1619 Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connections and joint rail, and water rates.—Nearly all the traffic is carried by the car ferries and bulk freight boats, using the terminals of the railway, or the salt and lumber companies, all of which are adequate and well suited to existing needs. The wharf used by the Chicago boat line. is without rail connection and should be improved. There should be a suitable publicly owned wharf with rail connections where the Government dredge and other vessels could coal direct from car to vessel. Rail connection and joint rail and water rates already exist for the greater part of the commerce. Special considerations.—There is little port delay to the car ferries as they are coaled direct from bottom dumping cars, and unloaded and loaded quickly by switching engines; grain in bulk is unloaded by machinery at the elevator; coaling for all boats except car ferries is done in an inefficient way as the coal, which comes by rail, is wheeled from car to boat. Coal, for evaporating brine at the Morton Salt Co., is received by vessels and unloaded by machinery. The warehouse at the railway wharf provides storage for such package freight as can not be forwarded promptly. A greater interest in the general port facilities should be shown by the community. MANISTEE HARBOR, MICH. Tocation and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 180 miles from Chicago. It consists of Manistee Take, about 4 miles long by one-fourth to one-half mile wide and 35 feet general depth, and Manistee River, about 9,300 feet long from Manistee Lake to Lake Michigan, which it enters through a channel protected by revetments and piers, with a south breakwater sheltering the entrance. The city of Manistee, with a population of about 14,000, is on the west side of Manistee Lake * on both sides of the river between the two lakes. There are good railroad facilities, a branch of the Pere Marquette Railway ending here, and skirting the north and east sides of Man- istee Lake; the Manistee & Northeastern Railway passes through the city with a belt line to all the industries on the west side of Man- istee Lake and on the north side of the river between the two lakes; there is also the Michigan East & West Railway, a short and unim- portant line used largely as a logging road. Existing project.—This provides for an enlarged harbor entrance protected by a south breakwater in Lake Michigan, and thenceſan entrance channel protected by piers and revetments into the river, with depths below low water (579.6 feet) of 20 feet in the entrance channel and 18 feet in the river to Manistee Lake.

Size and type of vessels.-Vessels include (1) translake freight and passenger steamers up to 1,262 net registered tons, length 259 feet, breadth, 47 feet and draft 16 feet; (2) bulk-freight steam vessels up to 2,100 net registered tons, length 306 feet, breadth 44 feet, and draft 18 feet; (3) small sail and gasoline freight boats. Terminal and transfer facilities.—There are two wharves warehouses on the south side of the river, near the business center of the city, which belong to the two regular line package–freight boats; there are no physical rail connections but freight is prorated with the railroads for through shipment. The city has a small and inexpen- sive wharf, or landing place, without buildings on the north side of the river which is open to the use of scows, launches, etc. The business of the bulk-freight boats is carried on directly with the various mills on Manistee Lake, each of which is provided with wharves for the free use of such boats. Three mills which ship salt or lumber, are provided with railroad tracks, but these do not, as a rule, extend to the water front as, with the exception of logs, there is or has been little or no traffic to be transferred between rail and water. The mills which formerly existed on the east side of the lake have been moved away and the wharves abandoned. A length of 826 feet of the north Government revetment is occupied by the Manistee & Northwestern Railway, under permit from the Secretary of War, and serves as a wharf for general use; it is provided with a railroad track at the water's edge, but is not kept in good repair. Port administration, charges, public ownership and control.—The movement of shipping is subject to the supervision of a city harbor master. There is no public ownership or control except for the city wº 165 feet long, which is nothing but a landing place for small Craft. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—The terminals were ample for the much larger commerce of previous years, and the present tendency is toward a steadily decreasing tonnage in important articles. It is noted that in 1918 no lumber was shipped from this harbor. The city is trying to find new industries to take the place of the disappearing lumber mills and salt plants, but this transition in similar cases at other harbors has been slow. If the Manistee & Northeastern Railway is to continue the occupation and use of the Government revetment in front of its property it should be kept in better repair. The city Wharf should be improved and rail connections made. PORTAGE LAKE HARBOR OF REFUGE, MICH. location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 185 miles from Chicago. It consists of Portage Lake, about 3.5 miles long and of navigable depth, and the channel about 2,200 feet long, 362 feet wide at the entrance, narrowing to 356 feet. The village of Onekama, with a population of 450, is at the inner end of Portage Lake. A spur from the Manistee & North- eastern Railway ends at Onekama, but does not connect with any water terminal - Eristing project.—This provides for an entrance channel 300 feet Wide and 18 feet deep below low water (579.6 feet), from Lake Michigan to Portage Lake. - WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1621 Character and extent qf water commerce, 1918.

Terminal and transfer facilities.--The terminal is at the village of Onekama at the inner end of the lake, where the Northern Michigan Transportation Co. and the Pere Marquette Line steamers have somewhat temporary wharves, or landing places, with small ware- houses. There is no public wharf and no railroad connection with any wharf. § Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control. —None. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—The present terminals are adequate for present and prospective commerce. The interest in this improvement is confined to the small summer resort business, mostly for the accommodation of resort passengers. There is no probability of enough freight traffic developing to justify maintaining the harbor. ARCADIA HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 193 miles from Chicago. It is formed by North Bar Lake, about 4,800 feet long and of navigable depth, and the artificial channel into Lake Michigan, which is about 1,200 feet long and 200 to 163 feet wide. The village of Arcadia, with a population of about 1,200, is at the north end of the lake, and is the terminus of the Arcadia & Betsy Rivers Railway, a logging road, 21 miles long, which does not do an interstate business. Eristing project.—A project for maintaining the harbor by dredg- ing for a period of five years was completed in 1907, by expiration of time. There is no project at present.

Size and type of vessels.-In 1918 the harbor was made use of by one small gasoline boat of 14 net registered tons, length 46 feet, breadth 11 feet, and draft about 5% feet. Prior to 1918, vessels included translake freight and passenger steamers and an occasional lumber barge, up to about 400 net registered tons, length 149 feet, breadth 37 feet, and draft 13 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.--There is a wharf, with warehouse and railroad connection, at the village of Arcadia belonging to the Pere Marquette Line steamers and open to general use. The town- ship has improved a street end adjoining this wharf, which is also open to the public. Port administration, charges, public ownership, and control. —See preceding paragraph. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—This harbor was built by the local land and lumber company, which owned a steam barge and shipped all its lumber and other forest products by water. The lumber business ended several years ago. The local interests have tried to keep a boat line in operation but the business has not been large enough, and at present the only commerce is that carried by a gasoline boat running along the shore between Manistee and Frankfort. FRANKFORT HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 203 miles from Chicago. It is formed by Lake Betsey (Aux Becs Scies), about 1.5 miles long, generally shoal but with navigable depth in the westerly portion, and the artificial chan- nel into Lake Michigan, protected by revetments and piers. The village of Frankfort, with a population of about 1,600, is on the north side of Lake Betsey at its west end, and the village of South Frank- fort (Elberta), with a population of 800, is on the south side at the head of the lake. There is one railroad, the Ann Arbor Railway, with tracks on both sides of the lake, the terminii being at the west end of the lake, the freight on the south, and the passenger on the north side of the lake. Eristing project.—This provides for a channel from Lake Aux Becs Scies to Lake Michigan, protected by piers and revetments, about 200 feet wide, and 18 feet deep below low water (579.6 feet).

WATER TERMINAT, AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1623 Size and type of vessels.-Vessels include (1) car ferries up to 1,961 net registered tons, length 360 feet, breadth 56 feet, and draft 16% feet; (2) translake freight and passenger steamers up to 1,262 net registered tons, length 259 feet, breadth 47 feet, and draft 16 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The water terminals are at the west end of the lake, on either side of the inner end of the entrance iers. Practically the entire freight traffic is carried by the car łº of the Ann Arbor Railway Co., which has its terminus here and operates a line of car ferries across Lake Michigan to Manitowoc, Kewaunee, Menominee, and Manistique. The terminal, consisting of a car ferry transfer slip, coal wharf, and general railroad yards, is on the south side of the harbor at the inner end of the entrance channel. It is badly located, as the larger car ferries, when in the slip, project into and partly block the entrance channel and are sub- i. to undue wave action in time of storm. The coal wharf, adjoining the car ferry slip, is in poor condition. The two regular steamboat lines carrying package freight, each has a wharf, with warehouse and railroad connection, on the north side of the lake. These wharves are open to the use of all boats, Port administration, charges, public ownership and control.—There are no publicly owned or controlled wharves, with the exception of a street end which is open to general use. There are a number of old, unused wharves, connected with former lumber interests, which could be used for public wharves if there were any demand for them. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection and joint rail and water rates.—The car ferry terminal is well suited to the traffic except that it is too near the entrance channel. The coal wharf, the only one available at the harbor, is in such poor condition that it is difficult to coal the Government dredge when working here. It should be improved so that coaling could be done direct from car to boat. The wharves of the package freight boats are ample for present or prospective commerce, but the slips alongside are not properly dredged. Special considerations.—The car ferries arrive and depart with little delay, as the unloading and loading, as well as the coaling by bottom-dumping coal cars, is done quickly from adjoining storage tracks with switching engines. All other traffic is so small that existing facilities are subject to little improvement. An examination was made in 1915 and 1916 as to increased harbor protection, as requested by the local railroad interests. As a result of this a change in the project so as to provide for two breakwaters with shore con- nections, the removal ºthe outer portion of the piers, and additional dredging was recommended. The estimated cost of construction was $700,000, one-half of which and all land needed was to be furnished free of cost to the United States by local or other interests. No fur- ther action in the matter has ever been taken. More public interest in general commerce should be shown. CHARLEVOIX HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore cº Lake Michigan about 275 miles from Chicago. It is at the mouth of Pine River, which connects Lake Michigan through the lower channel with Round Lake; the distance from Lake Michigan to Pine Lake is 1624 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. about 1 mile. Round Lake is about one-half mile in diameter and Pine Lake is about 14 miles long, both being navigable. The city of Charlevoix, with a population of about 2,500, is on both sides of the entrance channel. The Grand Rapids, Traverse City, and Petoskey branch of the Pere Marquette Railway, crosses the upper channel at the west end of Pine Lake. Boyne City, with a population of about 6,000, is at the east end of the main body of Pine º It is the terminus of the Boyne City, Gaylord & Alpena Rail- TO 8,01. East Jordan, with a population of about 2,600, is at the head of the south arm of Pine Lake. It is the terminus of two short railroads, the East Jordan & Southern Railroad and the Detroit & Charlevoix Railroad. Existing project.—This-provides for a channel 15 feet deep below low water (579.6 feet), from Lake Michigan to Pine Lake, protected by piers and revetments in the lower and upper channels.

Size and type of vessels.-Wessels include (1) translake freight and passenger steamers up to 1,262 net registered tons, length 259 feet, breadth 47 feet, and draft about 16 feet, (2) steam barges carrying ore and lumber, up to 1,526 net registered tons, length 266 feet, breadth 38 feet, and draft 17 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The main terminals are at Boyne City and East Jordan, which control about 99 per cent of the com- merce. This consists of iron ore, pig iron, coal, and forest products, which are handled at the wharves of the various mills. The mills have rail connections for the receipt of logs, coal, and other supplies, and for the shipment of lumber. The tracks extend to the wharves in only a few cases as there is little or no freight to be transferred between rail and water. The depths at these wharves where lumber is loaded, and where iron ore is unloaded, are greater than the project depth of the channel from Pine Lake to Lake Michigan. The only water terminal of any importance at Charlevoix is Wilburs Wharf, with warehouses and offices at the inner end of the south revet- ment. It is the terminal of the regular boat line, and is used also by all passenger and package freight boats. It is near the business center and about three-quarters of a mile from the railroad. The city has a landing place on Round Lake at the end of a street, where small boats land without charge. --- Port administration, charges, public ownership and control.—The movement of vessels at Charlevoix is subject to the supervision of a harbor master. Wilburs Wharf is open to the use of all boats at uniform rates based on passenger and freight charges. There is no.

Jordan vessels are berthed, without charge, at the wharves of the various mills, etc. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest, and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—The terminals at the head of Pine Lake have º suitable for the commerce of past years, and will doubtless ave a less volume to handle in the future, as the lumber industry is gradually declining, and, with its end, the blast furnaces will prob- ably soon cease operating. The single wharf is ample for present commerce at the city of Charlevoix, but there should be a wharf where the Government dredge could coal when working here. The Pere Marquette Railway wharf at the west end of Pine Lake, which was formerly used for this purpose, is out of repair, and all coaling has to be done at Boyne City. The coal received by water all goes to Boyne City. The commerce involved is such as to cause little demand for joint rail and water rates. The interests at the head of Pine Lake have urged an increase in the project depth of 15 feet in the entrance channel, as this depth does not permit economical loading of ore and lumber barges. The Charlevoix City landing place should be improved by construction of regular wharf and warehouse. PETOSKEY HARBOR, MICH. Location and description.—This harbor is on the east shore of Lake Michigan, about 297 miles from Chicago. It is formed by a breakwater 1,345 feet long on the south shore of Little Traverse Bay, which shelters an area of about 25 acres. The city of Petoskey, with a population of about 5,500, has two railroads—the Grand Rapids § }. Railroad and the Pere Marquette Railway. The latter borders the shore of the bay. Existing project.—This provides for a breakwater extending nearly at right angles to the shore line to shelter the landing pier from westerly storms. Character and eatent of water commerce, 1918.-The water-borne commerce of 1918 is not known, no statistics being available, but it is probable that it amounted to about the same as for 1917, when the tonnage was 1,052 tons. Size and type of vessels.-Prior to 1918 vessels included a small local ferryboat of 51 net registered tons and translake freight and jº steamers up to 1,484 net registered tons, length 225 feet, readth 40 feet, and draft 16 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The only terminal is at the outer end of a landing pier extending about 700 feet from the shore and sheltered by the breakwater. There is a warehouse at the outer end of the pier which is reached by a driveway on the pier. Port administration, charges, public ownership and control.—None. Adequacy of present terminals, general interest and cooperation, efforts to utilize and improve, desirability of rail connection, and joint rail and water rates.—Little Traverse Bay is an important summer resort region, but such of this business as goes by water is carried on mainly through the nearby harbor of Harbor Springs, the large boats landing there. The present terminal is used by a large number of small pleasure boats, which use the bay in favorable weather. There is no rail connection with the terminal, and no demand for S8.

[The situation here is unique and the discussion in this report represents the views of the district engineer.] Lake harbors—historical.—The typical lake harbor originally was within the mouth of a river or creek entering the lake across a shallow bar. The first measures adopted for improvement ordinarily included the deepening of the bar by dredging and the construction of parallel piers across the bar into the deeper water of the lake. These piers were extended, and further dredging occurred at the entrance and in the river harbor itself as vessels of deeper draft came into use. Finally breakwaters were often built lakeward of the piers, sometimes designed also to protect a portion of the lake shore which might thus be devoted to commercial or industrial harbor purposes. The history of the harbors in this district has for the most part been that above outlined. Chicago Harbor proper and Calumet Harbor.—The great harbor in this vicinity, and one of the great harbors of the world, was once within Chicago River and its branches, entered from Lake Michigan between parallel piers constructed by the Federal Government. Its commerce to-day is less than a fifth what it was once. This is largely due to the following causes: The great number of bridges constructed in response to inexorable urban requirements, the increased size of lake vessels, and the consequent inadequacy for navigation of the comparatively narrow and winding river channels; the inavailability upon the river banks of the large areas of cheap lands which are required for great industrial establishments. During the years 1875–1880 there was constructed by the Federal Government a breakwater covering about 14 miles of the lake front of Chicago, from the river mouth southward. Practically no harbor use has been made of the shore line thus protected. An existing Federal project involves the construction of an outer breakwater, now approaching completion, which protects from wave action the Chicago River entrance and two so-called harbor districts established by the city of Chicago. These harbor districts are con- tiguous and together occupy nearly a mile of lake frontage, including the mouth of Chicago River. Within one of them, just north of the river mouth, has been constructed a very large municipal pier, a part devoted to pleasure purposes, but the major part prepared for com- mercial harbor usage (berthing of local passenger and package-freight steamers). Due to the unfavorable location of this pier, such vessels as it is designed especially, to accommodate still for the most part refer to dock in Chicago River, more convenient to the business and otel district. Thus the new breakwater project is as yet without great return for expenditures upon it. 1706 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1707 Within the limits of Chicago, about 11% miles south of Chicago River, lie also most of the harbor facilities afforded by Calumet River and Calumet breakwater at South Chicago. Water-borne commerce at South Chicago has increased in almost equal ratio with its diminu- tion in the Chicago River Harbor. At South Chicago, harbor usage is almost entirely industrial except for the transfer of grain from rail to Water. Indiana and Gary harbors.-Southeast of Calumet Breakwater about 6% miles lies the entrance to Indiana Harbor Canal, now being protected by a Federal breakwater. This harbor, like that of Gary, a private harbor belonging to the United States Steel Corporation, 63 miles to the eastward, with its entrance also protected by a break- water, is entirely industrial. Both Indiana #. and Gary are artificial in character, channels excavated into the land replacing the natural river or creek of the typical harbor above described. The State of Indiana has fostered the construction of industrial harbors upon its lake front by a provision of law permitting riparians to fill in the bed of the lake, which belongs to the State, and pur- chase the same at a reasonable price. Michigan City Harbor.—Michigan City Harbor, in Trail Creek, with its entrance protected by a Federal breakwater, 48 miles south- eastward from Chicago River entrance measured along the lake shore, seems too distant from Chicago and its commercially and industrially strategic geographical position at the southwest corner of Lake Michigan. No commerce of consequence utilizes Michigan City Harbor. Thus the Lake Michigan shore in this district is about 83 miles long, measured from Fort Sheridan to a point about 9 miles north- east of Michigan City, and embraces the tremendously important Chicago industrial district. Harbor usages.—In order that this report may be more readily understood, there is inserted a classification of harbor usages, com- mon in this district. Ports or harbors may be classified, broadly speaking, in accord- ance with the predominant uses made of them, although most great harbors, in different parts of them, indulge in all of the principal harbor usages. (M) INVOLVING TRANSFER OF FREIGHTS OF ALL KINDS BETWEEN RAIL AND WATER. (A) Commercial harbor usages.—When this commercial harbor usage predominates, as, for example, at New York, Baltimore, Gal- veston, and Seattle, the port or harbor is of general importance and its influence upon the prosperity of the hinterland that is naturally tributary to it in a commercial sense, and upon regions in which it enters as a competitor with other ports, is often very great. It is principally because Chicago, under changed conditions, may become a port of general importance, doing a transfer business be- tween lake (and perhaps ocean-lake) and rail that it becomes diffi- cult now to overestimate the space she may some time require for harbor purposes, and important now to do nothing which will make impossible or unreasonably difficult the performance of the services required of such a port. I708 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. (N) LOCAL PASSENGER AND PACKAGE-FREIGHT TERMINALs. Such commercial harbor usage is of less general or widespread im- portance than that usage classified above, although locally it may exceed all other usage in importance. The Goodrich Line, the Graham & Morton Line and several others use Chicago for such harbor purposes for the most part. Most freight carried by these lines originates in one lake port and is finally destined for another. There is but little transfer between these lines and rail carriers. Harbor facilities devoted to commercial usage, transfers should be located where it is easy to bring rail and water into physical contact, and at the same time, in the general case, where it is possi- ble to reach the wharves by truck from the jobbing and manufac- turing centers of the city. Certainly a great port city will not profit much by the circumstance that it exists near such an important point in a stream of commerce if it is prepared to feed nothing into the stream and temporarily, for jobbing purposes, to take nothing out of it. Harbor facilities devoted to commercial usage, local terminals should be as near as practicable to the hotel and jobbing districts. In general these facilities should be in localities possessing the same characteristics as would cause them to be chosen for railway pas- senger terminal stations. In Chicago one would naturally select the water front of Grant Park for such usage. (B) Industrial harbor usage.—In this case we ordinarily have great industrial establishments locating upon water and rail and utilizing harbor facilities of their own creation for the receipt of bulky raw materials. Such usage is much in evidence upon the Calumet River, behind the Calumet breakwater, and at Indiana Harbor and Gary. No part of the lake front of Chicago north certainly of Sixty- seventh Street is adapted to industrial harbor usages, where exten- sive areas of cheap lands are required. The entire lake shore from South Chicago to Michigan City is admirably adapted to industrial harbor purposes, by reason of cheap land, excellent rail communications, favorable laws of the State of Indiana for the acquisition of submerged lands, etc. (C) Local supply harbor usage.—For such usage we ordinarily see depots established on wharves at scattered points throughout a harbor for the local storage and distribution of coal, sand, lumber, etc. In Chicago such usage is made of many wharves upon Chicago River and its branches. If the river were closed to lake vessels, these materials would have to be lightered up from lake-front wharves unless the railroads were permitted to do all of the business. Referring to the harbor usages above classified and described, it may be said that all of them are in evidence, but on a rapidly diminish- ing scale, in Chicago River. Elsewhere in this district all important lake harbor usage is industrial except for the movement of grain from Calumet River. The Illinois River.—The Illinois River is 224 miles long from La Salle to its mouth at Grafton on the Mississippi River. It is nearly always navigable, except when frozen, by boats drawing 6 feet, and is projected to have a depth of 7 feet at low water. From La Salle up to Utica, 6% miles, the river can readily be deepened by dredging. From near Utica to Lockport, the southern terminus of the navigable Chicago Drainage Canal, the State of Illinois is about to construct a WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1709 waterway with ample locks and an 8 foot channel, thus completing a through channel from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Characteristics of related waterways.-The existing Federal projects for the improvement of the Mississippi River provide for depths at low water as follows: Below the mouth of the Ohio 9 feet; from the mouth of the Ohio to the mouth of the Missouri, 8 feet; from the mouth of the Missouri to the mouth of the Illinois, 6 feet. The existing Federal project for the Illinois River contemplates improvement to a 7-foot low-water depth by means of two dams with locks and by dredging from the mouth of the Illinois River up- ward to Copperas Creek, 137 miles. From Copperas Creek to La Salle, 86 miles, the State of Illinois, with assistance from the Federal Government, has effected a considerable improvement by means of two dams with locks and by dredging. The depth upon the miter sills of each of the four existing Illinois River locks, measured from low water of 1879, is 7 feet, and each lock is 350 feet long between sills and 75 feet wide. The State operates the two locks it has in part constructed and imposes tolls upon passing vessels. From La Salle to Utica, nearly 7 miles, the river is not at present under improvement, is in a fair natural condition, but would require very considerable dredging, as would the Illinois below La Salle, to produce an 8-foot channel to the Mississippi. - - The so-called Hennepin or Illinois and Mississippi Canal, connects Hennepin on the Illinois River, 13 miles below La Salle, with the Mississippi River near Rock Island. The locks of this canal are 150. feet long between sills and 35 feet wide, with 7 feet depth on the miter sills, and the channel is 80 feet wide at the top, 52 feet at the bottom and 7 feet deep. The old and now obsolete Illinois and Michigan Canal was con- structed by the State of Illinois, assisted by Federal grants, under an act of the State Legislature approved January 22, 1829. This canal originally was 36 feet wide at the bottom and 6 feet deep, with locks 105 feet long by 18 feet wide, by 6 feet deep, and connected the Illinois River at La Salle with the South Branch of the Chicago River, the latter connecting with Lake Michigan. This canal has been almost entirely neglected by the State and a year ago it was entirely unserviceable. Between June, 1918, and June 30, 1919, the Federal Government expended about $130,000 in an effort to make the old canal temporarily usable for small barges between the Chicago Drain- age Canal and La Salle. If the war had continued, this expenditure in connection with other work might have served some useful purpose. For purposes of navigation the Chicago Drainage Canal, constructed mainly to convey Chicago sewage into Illinois River, has replaced with a channel more than 20 feet deep and everywhere at least 160 feet wide that portion of the Illinois and Michigan Canal between Chicago River and Lockport. It is about 32 miles long. The construction of the Calumet Sag Channel, connecting the Chicago Drainage Canal and the Little Calumet River, now about 95 per cent completed, will provide access from the Illinois Water- way to Lake Michigan at Calumet Harbor and Indiana Harbor. The Sag Channel is being constructed by the Sanitary District of Chicago and when completed will have a total length of about 16% miles. § will extend from the Little Calumet River at the mouth of Stony Creek, about 6% miles above the junction of the Calumet and Little 1710 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Calumet Rivers, to a point on the Chicago Drainage Canal about 16 miles below its origin at the South Branch of Chicago River. About 3 miles of each end of the Calumet Sag Channel will be in rock section and will have a bottom width of 60 feet and a depth of 20 feet. The intermediate portion will be in earth section and will have a bottom width of 36 feet, slide slopes 1 on 2 and a depth of 20 feet. A guard lock 50 feet in width, with an available length of 365 feet and a depth of 24 feet over the sills will control the entrance at the Little Calumet River. The Little Calumet River from Stony Creek to its confluence with the Calumet River has an average depth of about 4 feet, a minimum depth of about 3 feet and an average width of about 175 feet. At the present time it is unimproved and would require some straightening and deapening. Water commerce of the Chicago District, 1918. Probable Locality. Tons. value.

CHICAGO RIVER, ANT) LARE HARBOR. Location and description—Chicago Harbor in reality embraces the entire navigable portions of Chicago River and its branches as well as the immediate lake frontage at its mouth. The river entrance is on a westerly course between two piers 320 to 470 feet apart. The navigable portions of the river are entirely within the limits of Cook County and the city of Chicago, and indeed they pass through the most congested districts of the city. The north braneh on a southerly course and the south branch on a northerly course unite about 1% miles from the lake to form the main river which enters the lake on its west shore about 25 miles from its south end. There are several more or less troublesome bends and many bridges, both railroad and highway, which interfere seriously with navigation of the larger class of vessels. Upon the opening of the Sanitary District Drainage Canal in 1901 the current in the main river and the south branch was reversed. The current in the north branch has been augmented somewhat by the operation of the Sanitary District North Shore Drainage Canal taking its water supply from the lake at Wilmette, about 14 miles north of Chicago #. and entering the north branch at Lawrence Avenue about 7% miles from the main river. Shoaling of the north branch is continuous, owing to the large amount of heavy sewage entering it. The navigable portion of the north branch which has been in the past dredged by the General Government, extends north to Belmont Avenue, about 5 miles from the main river, and includes the north branch canal, about a mile long and 70 to 110 feet wide which cuts WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1711 across a bend in the main channel forming Goose Island. On account of the lack of navigation, the several bends prohibitory to the passage of large vessels, and the constant deposit of refuse from the city sewers and industrial plants the maintenance by the United States of the channel above North Avenue (at the upper end of Goose Island, 2.2 miles from the main river) has been discontinued. The navigable portion of the south branch extends south to the confluence of the south and west forks, about 4 miles from the main river; thence on the south fork 1.3 miles continuing on its east and west arms, 0.7 and 0.6 miles, respectively, to the stockyards. The improved channel also extends along the west fork to Robey Street, one-half mile, where it connects with the Sanitary District Drainage Canal which draws its water supply from Lake Michigan. The Sanitary District has assumed the maintenance of the south branch and its west fork. The portion of this south branch and its forks which has been in the past dredged by the General Government extends throughout the south branch and its south fork only, the west fork and the two arms of the south fork having been dredged by É. or corporate interests. The main river is crossed by five ighway bridges, and two others are authorized, one being now under construction. The south branch and its forks are crossed by 20 highway and 7 railroad bridges; the north branch and canal b 14 highway and 5 railroad bridges. Least width of channel º bridges and least vertical clearances when bridges are closed are, main river, 140 feet and 16.8 feet; south branch, 91.8 feet and 5.0 feet; west fork to drainage canal, 50 feet and 7.1 feet; south fork, 100 feet and 12.9 feet; north branch, 90 feet and 5.3 feet; north branch canal, 80 feet and 7.6 feet. Immediately south of the entrance the outer basin, about 270 acres in extent, is protected from all seas by an easterly and a south- erly breakwater (timber) built in 1870–1880. The easterly break- water extends south from opposite the mouth of the river about 4,000 feet, parallel to the present shore and 2,000 feet therefrom. Thence, leaving an opening of 750 feet, the southerly breakwater, about 2,500 feet long, trends toward the shore at Twelfth Street, leaving an opening between it and the shore. The depth in this basin is 17 to 19 feet in the easterly portion which has been dredged to 21 feet and 8 to 14 feet in the westerly portion which has never been dredged. The basin is now used principally for anchorage of yachts and other small craft. The only part of the frontage pro- tected by this breakwater which is put to commercial use is that adjacent to the south pier where the Illinois Central Railroad Co. has built three piers, the remaining frontage to the southward being that of Grant Park partly occupied by the Chicago Yacht Club, the United States Naval Reserve, and the Columbia Yacht Club. About 1 mile lakeward of the river entrance an exterior break- water, a southerly extension, and a shore arm provide an exterior harbor of refuge of about 452 acres and protect the river entrance from seas north of east. A southerly arm of this breakwater is par- tially constructed, and upon its completion the protected area will be about 490 acres. The main entrance to the harbor is between these two rubblemound breakwaters, about 500 feet wide and immediately on line with the river entrance. Thus, the total protected shore line extends from Oak Street on the north to Twelfth Street (Roosevelt Road) on the south, a distance of about 24 miles. 1712 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The extensions of the original exterior breakwater were intended to afford protection to the Municipal Harbor District No. 1, described later in this report. Of the five piers planned for this district but one has been constructed and it is little used as a commercial terminal. At the inner end of the north pier is the entrance to Ogden slip, which parallels the river for a length of 2,500 feet with a width of 100 to 150 feet. On the south side of the river near the entrance the Illinois Central Railroad has constructed three slips, which are now only partially used and mostly for storage purposes. One, however, is used for transfer of grain to and from the Illinois Central elevator there located. Existing project.—The existing project provides for the construc- tion of an easterly and a southerly breakwater to form an outer basin about 270 acres in extent and the dredging of the northerly portion of the basin, for the construction of an exterior breakwater with a shore arm and southerly extension to form an outer harbor, and for the dredging of the main river and its north branch up to North Avenue, including the north branch canal. The project depth throughout is 21 feet. A. Water commerce, character and extent.—The water commerce of Chicago Harbor consists principally of coal, salt, lumber, grain, and miscellaneous merchandise. The principal receipts are coal from the Pennsylvania fields, shipped by rail to Lake Erie ports and thence to Chicago by water; lumber from various ports in Wisconsin and Michigan; bulk salt from Ludington, Mich.; and miscellaneous mer- chandise in the form of valuable package freight from nearly all ports on the Great Lakes. The principal shipments are grain and grain rºº from the Northwest, shipped into Chicago by rail, and miscellaneous package freight consisting of locally manufactured products. In 1918 grain and flour constituted nearly 70 per cent of the total shipments. Thus, while the tonnage of Chicago Harbor's commerce is considerably less than that of either Calumet or Indiana Harbor, its value is much larger, owing to the preponderance of valuable merchandise over raw materials. There are five regular passenger and freight lines using Chicago as a terminus, operating 9 or 10 steamers, both propeller and side wheel. Those lines carry a large amount of valuable miscellaneous cargoes between Chicago and other ports on Lake Michigan and beyond. They are Goodrich Transportation Co., Graham & Morton Line, Chicago, Duluth & Georgian Bay Transit Co., Chicago, Racine & Milwaukee Line, and Chicago & South Haven Steamship Co. The Goodrich Co. keeps one or more of its boats in commission through- out the year except in the most severe winters. Their termini are all located on the main river or the lake front. There are two regular freight lines, the Canada Atlantic Transit Co. and the Lehigh Valley Transportation Co., operating freight steamers between Chicago and other ports on the Lakes, including those of Canada. Their termini are on the north bank of the main river, directly connected with tracks of the Chicago & North Western Railroad. On Chicago River there are 10 grain elevators, with a combined storage capacity of 13,700,000 bushels, and from them there was shipped by water in 1918, 37,900,000 bushels of grain, consisting largely of wheat for trans-Atlantic relief.

In addition to the commerce with outside ports considerable local com- merce is carried on in the river by lighters in the transfer of package freight to and from the various railroad and vessel terminals and rivate warehouses. The Erie Railroad Co. operates barges carrying oaded freight cars between its terminals on the north and south branches. . During the year 1918 the total number of arrivals and departures of all classes of vessels, as shown by customhouse records, was 4,401. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The terminal facilities, provided in the Chicago River may be divided into three classes: (a) Public wharves, at street ends and along public highways, constructed and maintained by the city of Chicago. In several cases they are used by private parties under a leasehold interest, to be enjoyed without impairing the right of use by the public in the premises. City docks are leased on the basis of 5 per cent of their value, as determined by the average value of abutting property. (b) Wharves constructed by the owners thereof, but by reason of the condition of adjustment of wharfing privileges of the orginal town of Chicago under ordnance based on the act of February 27, 1847 and 1853, these wharves are public wharves, to be kept by the owner free of buildings and in serviceable condition for the landing of passengers with their neces- sary baggage. This is a perpetual lien or easement in favor of the public, commencing with the basic title to the city, but, so far as known, this condition has not been enforced in recent years. (c) Pri- vate wharves constructed by the owners for private commercial and industrial purposes. - The new municipal pier on the lake front north of the river entrance is 3,000 feet long and 292 feet wide. There is an 80-foot roadway running the length of the pier and a two story shed of steel fireproof construction 100 feet wide on each side of the roadway. These sheds have a combined storage area of 765,180 square feet and have been largely used by the United States during the war for barracks and storage purposes. The second floor, having an area of 308,880 square feet, is used exclusively for promenade and amusement pur- poses during the summer season, and is served by a street railway which runs the length of the building and returns by a continuous track. There is no mechanical equipment for loading and unload- ing vessels and no rail transfer connection whatever. The Chicago & North Western Railroad has a spur track within 1,000 feet of the 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—108 1714 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. pier, and while this spur might be completed so as to render it physically possible to effect rail transfers over it, it is not probable that such transfers would be made “to all on equal terms” as ex- pressed in the river and harbor act of March 2, 1919. - With the exception of a number of small pleasure boats doing a local excursion business, the only vessels using this pier as a terminal are those of the Chicago, Duluth & Georgian Bay Transit Co., which does principally a passenger business, its freight business in 1918 amounting to but 130 tons. The Illinois Central Railroad slip No. 1, in use by the Morton Salt Co., has a wharf frontage of 1,000 feet. The warehouse of the Morton Salt Co. is of frame construction and has a floor area of about 200,000 square feet. It has rail connection with the Illinois Central Railroad and good highway connections. The mechanical apºlº in use consist of three mast hopper hoists for bulk salt. he only two terminals of any importance on the Ogden slip are the wharf and warehouses of the Chicago, Racine & Milwaukee line and the Pugh Terminal Warehouse. The warehouse of the former is of wooden construction, with a floor area of 50,000 square feet and a wharf frontage of 430 linear feet. The warehouse has switch connection with the Chicago & North Western Railroad and good highway connections. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight. The Pugh Terminal Warehouse has a wharf frontage of 1,300 feet. The warehouse is a six story building of mill construction, with a floor area of 996,562 square feet. It has switch connections to the Chicago & North Western Railroad and with the Illinois Tunnel Co., which operates a package-freight tunnel line in Chicago. It has good highway connections, but there are no mechanical appliances for handling freight. The main river from the mouth to the junction of the north and south branches provides about 21,000 feet of frontage. The Illinois Central Grain Elevator A and a number of warehouses and coal docks are located in this section, as are the terminals of the principal steamship transportation companies doing a general passenger and pººl. i. These steamship lines occupy about 3,400 eet of frontage and have a combined warehouse floor area of about 335,000 square feet. The entire north bank of the main river from Ogden Slip up to º unction of the north and south branches, is served by the Chicago & North Western Railroad, but on the south bank there are no rail connections except for those of the Illinois Central adjoining its slips near the mouth of the river. n the north and south branches of the river there is a total front- age, including a number of slips, of about 150,000 feet, about one- half of . is used for terminal purposes. These terminals are owned and operated by steamboat and railroad lines, grain, coal, and lumber companies, and various other industries. The various railroad companies own a total frontage of approximately 39,600 feet, of which about 18,600 feet is leased to other industries. About 6,400 feet of this latter frontage is used as water terminal. Port administration.—The navigation of Chicago Harbor and River is subject to regulations made and administered by the city of Chicago. The port is in direct charge of a harbor master acting under the direction of the commissioner of public works. There H. Doc, 552, 66-2. MUNICIPAL PIER, CHICAGO, ILL. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1715 are no port charges. Regulations governing the anchorage grounds : rotected by the breakwaters are prescribed by the Secretary of ar and are enforced under the supervision of the United States Coast Guard Service, in pursuance of an act of Congress. Public ownership and control.—The public ownership and control of terminal facilities on the river is negligible. Although the public owns a perpetual lien or easement to the use of certain wharf fronts which have been leased to private owners it has never used this right except at times for excursion traffic. The wharf fronts are not open to all water carriers on equal terms. Especially is this true of the wharves used by the large steamboat lines. The wharves of the coal, lumber, and grain companies are all in the nature of private terminals, for use of any vessels having business at their respective docks. The water frontage belonging to the sanitary district, which is a public agency, has been leased for private purposes. The city of Chicago owns and controls the new municipal pier and has planned to construct four others of a similar kind in what is known as Chicago Harbor District No. 1 at the mouth of the river. There is no other public ownership of terminals. Public interest and cooperation.—Public interest and cooperation is evidenced only by the fact that the bonds for the construction of the new municipal pier were voted by the people, but its recreation and amusement features made a strong appeal and its use has been almost wholly confined to excursion business and recreation pur- oses. Purely commercial harbor development on the lake front as been discouraged by the popular claim that “the lake front belongs to the people.” Admittedly, it does—to the vast number of people in the surrounding country who are dependent upon Chicago as a distributing point, rather than to those locally interested in its U1S6 8S 8, #. The public interest in the river has been chiefly confined to demands for more bridges and to the restriction of navigation by confining bridge operation to certain hours so as to cause as little delay and interference to land traffic as possible. Special considerations. I. Harbor districts.-The State harbor law (approved June 10, 1911, modified and reenacted June 23, 1913) authorizes the city of Chicago to declare and develop harbor districts, which later may include lands belonging to the State and submerged by Lake Michigan, these lands to become subject to occupation by the city for harbor purposes. • TJnder the State harbor law the city of Chicago has established harbor districts as follows: Harbor District No. 1 embraces all of Chicago River including its North and South Branches, and also a partly submerged area in Lake Michigan extending along shore from the south side of Chicago River entrance to Chicago Avenue extended, a distance of about 3,300 feet. Harbor District No. 2 embraces a submerged area in Lake Michi- gan extending along shore from the south side of Chicago River entrance to Randolph Street extended, a distance of about 1,260 feet. Harbor District No. 4 embraces the Calumet River within the city limits and Lake Calumet. A harbor district, No. 5 embracing a submerged area in Lake Michigan, extending along the shore from Seventy-ninth Street to the Illinois–Indiana State line, a distance of about 3.05 miles, has been recommended by the appropriate committee of the City Council of Chicago. 1716 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. A city ordinance approved July 31, 1919, establishes Harbor District No. 3, embracing a submerged area in Lake Michigan, extending north and south between lines extended 400 feet south of the center line of Sixteenth Street and the south line of Thirty-first Street, a distance of 7,500 feet. The landward boundary of this harbor district is about one-half mile off shore, the same boundary constituting the easterly or lakeward boundary of a proposed park area. Its lakeward boundary lies at an average distance of 13 miles off shore in water averaging 24 feet in depth. The area of Harbor District No. 3 is about 2.34 square miles. These harbor districts are described below in tabular form: Chicago harbor districts. Extension e north and Extension east and west (perpendicular No. LOCation. sºns to shore). - .

Occupancy lake front, present and proposed.—Passing north- ward from Chicago River, in Harbor District No. 1, hereinbefore described, the city has constructed one very large pier (292 feet by 3,000 feet), designed in part for recreation purposes, but in much larger part for the use of package freight and passenger steamers. There is room for several other piers in this harbor district, but inasmuch as not 5 per cent of the berthing space of the existing municipal pier is used at the present time, it does not seem probable that additional piers will be constructed in the near future. Package freight and passenger steamers appear to prefer berths nearer the business center, and the Goodrich and Graham & Morton Lines, which are the most important of this character, continue to berth in Chicago River. From the northerly end of Harbor District No. 1, northward to the city limits, the lake front has never been thought useful for com— mercial or industrial harbor purposes and has been surrendered to the littoral parking operations, present and proposed, of the Lincoln Park commissioners. Shoreward of Lincoln Park lies the most desirable residence district of Chicago. There are no railway lines tº: large business or industrial establishments in this region near the lake. Immediately south of Chicago River lies Harbor District No. 2, hereinbefore described, which embraces on its shoreward side several piers belonging to the Illinois Central Railroad Co., of which but little present use is made. The shore connections from these piers, except rail connections, are entirely inadequate. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1717 Erom the southerly boundary of Harbor District No. 2 at Randolph Street, about 1,300 feet south of Chicago River, Grant Park extends along the shore for about 14 miles to Roosevelt Road (Twelfth Street). This park embraces the so-called Loop District lake frontage of Chicago. It was originally submerged land, and to protect it so that commercial piers might be built the United States constructed a breakwater, completed in 1875–1880, which still exists, now protect- ing an anchorage area used almost entirely for yachting purposes and the like. Upon the lake front of Grant Park the Naval Militia and the Chicago Yacht Club have established themselves under proper authority. If the United States has received any return whatever for its expenditure in this locality it has been through the facilities there existing for training young men in seamanship. It would probably be wise for the city to establish another harbor district extending from Grant Park to the old breakwater above described and from Randolph Street to the vicinity of Roosevelt Road, so that in future this area might be used for harbor purposes. Such use, however, should be restricted to package freight and passenger vessels, training vessels, yachts and the like, and to piers for the same. . The use of this area for such purposes would not injuriously affect the use of Grant Park for park purposes. On the contrary it would add something of interest to it if the park were so developed as to afford to pedestrians and others a good view of the marine activities lakeward of it. - From Roosevelt Road to Sixteenth Street, about one-half mile, the lake front is occupied by the Field Museum and surrounding lands under the control of the South Park Commissioners. - From the Field Museum southward as far as Forty-ninth Street, about 4 miles, the Illinois Central tracks occupy the shore front. From Forty-ninth Street to Fifty-sixth Street, about 1 mile, the shore front is owned privately or by the city, and is occupied for residence or park purposes. Along the lake shore from Fifty-sixth Street to Sixty-seventh Street, about 1% miles, lies Jackson Park. From Randolph Street southward to Sixty-seventh Street, practically all of the riparian rights are now possessed by the South Park Com- missioners. From Sixty-seventh Street to Seventy-fifth Street, a distance of about 1 mile, the shore front is occupied for country club and resi- dence purposes. From Seventy-fifth Street to Seventy-ninth Street, a distance of seven-eighths mile, the shore front is occupied by Rain- bow Park under control of the Small Parks and Playgrounds Com- mission of the city of Chicago, It is primarily used for bathing beaches. From Seventy-ninth Street to Calumet River entrance, a distance of about 1% miles, the shore front is occupied for industrial purposes (Illinois Steel Co.). The Federal breakwater forming Calumet Harbor and protecting Calumet River entrance is located upon this frontage. The breakwater is 6,900 feet long and covers an anchorage area about 366 acres in extent, a part of which is across the State line, in Indiana. From Calumet River entrance to Ninety-fifth Street, a distance of about one-half mile, the shore front is occupied for industrial purposes. From Ninety-fifth Street to One hundred and second Street, a distance of about 1 mile, the shore front is occupied by Calumet Park under the control of the South Park Commissioners. The Illinois–Indiana State line crosses the shore line of Lake Michigan at One hundred and third Street. 1718 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Attached to this report is a map entitled “Study of the Chicago Harbor Problem,” which illustrates the present occupancy of the lake front from the northerly limit of Chicago to Michigan City, and its adaptability to the various usages. (Inclosure No. 1.) III. South side lake shore park status.--Under a State act approved May 14, 1903, title to all submerged land in the city of Chicago bounded on the north by the south side of Randolph Street extended, on the east by the United States harbor line, and on the south by Eleventh Street Place (Park Row) extended, all known as Grant Park, was conveyed to the South Park commissioners, to be held, managed, and controlled by them as were other parks then under their control. Under this act, authority was granted the commis- sioners to connect Jackson Park with Grant Park by a boulevard or driveway over and upon the bed of the public waters of Lake Michi- gan. Such act made provision, however, that no such extension should be made as would interfere with practical navigation of such public waters for the purpose of commerce without authority from the {Jnited States. This act also conveyed authority to the commis- sioners to acquire the riparian rights of the owners of the land on the shore of Lake Michigan between said parks by deed or contract. By the act of May 2, 1907, the commissioners were given the addi- tional power to connect said parks by constructing a boulevard, driveway, or parkway over the bed of Lake Michigan and to acquire the riparian rights of the owners of the shore lands between said ; and in so doing to establish a boundary line which should ound and limit the riparian rights of the owners of such shore lands; and providing that whenever any such contract for the establish- ment of such boundary line was made, the same might be submitted to the circuit court of the county in which the lands were situated, praying that the boundary line might be established and confirmed, and that when so confirmed the title of the State to the lands on the shore side of such line should pass to such shore owner, and on the Outer side thereof to the commissioners, with the right to each party to fill in such submerged lands to the line aforesaid. By the act approved June 11, 1912 (in force July 1, 1912), the State granted to the commissioners additional power to employ the right of eminent domain for the acquirement of such riparian rights of the owners of shore lands lying between Grant Park and Jackson Park, and formally ceded to the commissioners the title of the submerged lands so ac- quired for the purpose of constructing a connecting driveway, parkway, or boulevard. The length of the Lake Michigan shore line extending southwardly from Chicago River to Illinois–Indiana State line measures approxi- mately 13% miles and along this frontage the South Park commis- sioners have acquired the riparian rights for 9 miles as follows: Miles.

North side lake shore park status.-Under the State act ap- proved February 8, 1869, entitled “An act to fix the boundaries of Lincoln Park and to provide for its improvement,” certain lands bordering upon Lake Michigan (including Lake Shore Drive) were WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1719 declared to be a public park, known as Lincoln Park. Under a State act ºf June 15, 1895, entitled “An act to enable park commissioners in this State to enlarge the same from time to time and granting submerged lands for the purpose of such enlargements and to defray the cost thereof,” amended May 14, 1903, the com- missioners of Lincoln Park and the riparian owners of lake front property are authorized to compromise the line dividing riparian and park board ownership subject to confirmation by a decree of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Ill. Under the provisions of the acts above referred to the commissioners of Lincoln Park have from time to time acquired the riparian rights and have extended park areas lakeward along a shore frontage between Grand Avenue (foot of Municipal Pier) on the south to Bittersweet Place on the north, a distance of approximately 4% miles. The present plans of the Lincoln Park commissioners contemplate carrying the lakeward extension of Lincoln Park ultimately to Devon Avenue, 3 miles farther north and 1% miles south of the northerly city limits at Howard Avenue. . Along the frontage of 3 miles last mentioned the park commissioners are now engaged in the acquisition of the riparian rights, about 70 per cent of such rights having been acquired. The length of the Lake Michigan shore line extending northwardly from Chicago River to the northerly city limits measures approxi- mately 9% miles and along this frontage the Lincoln Park commis- sioners have acquired the riparian rights for approximately 7 miles. V. Chicago i. and river problems.-The great problems, so far as concern harbor facilities at Chicago, are as #. How long shall Chicago River be used for the harborage of large vessels? What reservations, physical or legal, shall be made of the Chicago lake shore for harbor purposes? . Chicago foreshore problem.—The foreshore of Lake Michigan front- ing Chicago, by which is meant that portion of the lake contiguous to the shore and relatively shoal, say not deeper than 7 fathoms, is of such extent and character as to constitute an asset of enormous value. No other such asset is known to be possessed by any other great city. It is all owned by the State of #. and controlled, in the interest of navigation, by the Federal Government. This foreshore is 22 miles long from north to south, and about 4% miles wide, thus embracing about 100 square miles. If developed into areas of land and water, in which the water areas would necessaril redominate somewhat to permit the borrowing of sand and eart or fill, a vast amount of land might be formed and navigable chan- nels incidentally created, which could be allocated to all conceivable public purposes, including parks and harbors. Perhaps from 20 to 40 square miles of land might be thus created in accordance with some comprehensive project, and the cost of land thus created would be but a fraction of its market value. There is a great demand locally for the development of park areas on the lake front. There is attached a map entitled “Typical world harbors, superim- posed upon the shoal submerged land of the Chicago Harbor area,” which illustrates the wealth of this foreshore in available area for harbor and perhaps other public purposes. (Inclosure No. 2.) In this connection it seems fair to point out the fact that the naviga- tion interest is far more widespread geographically than the park interest. The people of Iowa and other States to the westward of 1720 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Chicago are not interested especially in parks for Chicago people, but they are now interested or may become vastly interested in the creation of harbor facilities at that strategic point, commercially speaking, by reason of occupying which the city of Chicago has become one of the great cities of the world. Neither the municipal pier in harbor district No. 1 nor the Illinois Central piers in harbor district No. 2 are much used for the berthing of vessels. Unless there be a very marked change in conditions one is forced to admit that there is no existent demand for harbor space upon the lake shore which can not probably be amply met in the harbor districts that the city has established and upon neighboring frontages in the State of Indiana. What changes of conditions seem possible or probable and how would these changes affect the question of harbor requirements on the lake shore ? Chicago River problem.–In the first place, let us face the situation obtaining in Chicago River. The following table shows its dimin- ishing commerce in short tons: Year. Receipts. Shipments. Year. Receipts. Shipments. 1890---------------------- 5,093, 145 || 5,867,305 || 1915-..................... 2,046,262 | 1,734,247 1893---------------------- 4,901,587 2,307,649 || 1916---------------------- 2,046,647 1,212,523 1900---------------------- 3,874,250 2,315, 114 || 1917---------------------- 1,517,018 922,363 1905---------------------- 2,981,424 1,464,647 || 1918---------------------- 1,344,625 556,062 1910---------------------- 2,859,507 1,305,148 || 1919. --------------------- 883,924 1,041,709 The number of bridges crossing the river and its branches is, in response to inexorable urban requirements, continually increasing. There are now 82 bridges, either highway or rail, and many others are projected. When bridges are but about 400 feet apart, there is no room between adjacent bridges for the berthing of large lake vessels. Each bridge which must be opened for the passage of a lake vessel contributes to the hazard of navigation and to the delays put upon it. Drawbridges are expensive to build and operate and the delays laced upon land traffic due to the opening of bridges across Chicago iver and the resulting economic loss are very large and would be enormous by this time had not navigation within the river been so rapidly declining. The drawing of water from Lake Michigan through the Chicago River to convey the sewage of Chicago to the Illinois Valley creates currents in the river which, especially when added to, as occasionally happens, by currents due to “seiches” (sudden changes of elevation of Lake Michigan caused by winds and barometic changes), are not only detrimental to navigation but occasionally even threatening to its very safety. It might be well to determine now or to give consideration to such determination that after the lapse of a certain period of time, perhaps 10 years, there be no further requirement for bridges across Chicago River other than fixed bridges which would pass lighters and barges beneath them. The making of such a decision at this time would permit the timely development elsewhere of such harbor facilities as might be required to replace those abandoned upon the river, would prevent losses in connection with bridges contemplated to be built H. Doc. 652, 66–2. LOCAL PASSENGER AND FREIGHT WHARF, CHICAGO RIVER, ILL. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1721 or rebuilt in the near future and would permit many obvious eco- nomic adjustments to be made. The bearing of this paragraph upon the lake front proposition is patent. It is probable that the closing of Chicago River would increase the demand, or perhaps it is fairer to say, create a certain demand for harbor facilities upon the lake front. VI. Factors which may increase Chicago Harbor requirements.- There has been much thought in the past, and there is thought now of connecting the Great Lakes with the Atlantic Ocean by a ship channel of ample dimensions for large vessels. Such a connection lº be created either via the St. Lawrence River or the Hudson 1VOI’. - Who will say that such a channel will not be or even is unlikely to be developed in the next 50 or 100 years? And if it is developed it will tºº. conform to a higher standard of requirements as regards width, curvature, depth, etc., than we are accustomed to demand of waterways to-day. gº During the past year a number of vessels have taken on cargo at Chicago for European ports, although it must be confessed these voyages were made under extraordinary conditions, having their origin in war. . If, however, a channel to the sea is developed of the character touched upon above, even though such a channel be closed in winter, it hardly requires argument to convince one of the prob- ability that Chicago will become a great port for the receipt and shipment of vast quantities of freight passing between European ports and a large part of the United States. Chicago is also about to be connected with tidewater on the Gulf of Mexico through the construction by the State of the Illinois Waterway. The traffic borne by this waterway may well create a demand for harbor facilities which can not now be exactly estimated. If the river is closed to lake vessels, craft traversing the Illinois Waterway would naturally be of the barge type which could pass under fixed bridges. Such barges could find terminal facilities, both }. the river and later, under changed conditions, upon the lake ront. - The imagination does not work with sufficient accuracy to enable us at this time to measure quantitatively. Chicago's future harbor requirements. It is not altogether improbable that they may be greater than exist anywhere on earth to-day. Some believe that such harbor requirements, if they arise, can be provided for elsewhere than along the lake front of the city where it is now desired to create parks, as for example, at South Chicago or along the Indiana shore near the interstate line. It seems altogether likely, however, that by the time great harbor requirements of a general commercial nature must be met hereabouts the Indiana and South Chicago lake fronts will be lined with industrial plants requir- ä harbor facilities as is rapidly coming to be true to-day; and the Calumet River and Calumet Lake district will at that time probably be cut off from Lake Michigan by too many bridges to be worthy of serious consideration for commercial harbor purposes of the first class, such as are now being discussed. VII. A city ordinance analyzed.—By an ordinance of the council of the city of Chicago approved July 31, 1919, entitled “An ordinance for the establishment of harbor district No. 3, the construction by 1722 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. the Illinois Central Railroad Co. of a new passenger station; electrifi- cation of certain of the lines of the Illinois Central and Michigan Central Railroad Cos. within the city; and the development of the lake front,” the city of Chicago has provided for the establishment of harbor district No. 3, embracing a certain area submerged by Lake Michigan; has set forth arrangements with the Illinois Central and other railroad companies whereby these companies shall electrify certain of their lines and whereby the Illinois Central shall erect a union station, while receiving the assent of the city to the filling in and occupation of certain lands submerged by Lake Michigan con- tiguous to its present right of way; and has also expressed the assent of the city to the filling in by the South Park commission of certain submerged lands for the most part contiguous to the present shore line of Lake Michigan or to the lands above mentioned which are to be filled in by the Illinois Central. Another provision of a less general nature than those above recited, but one deserving of the special attention of the War Department, is contained in Article III, section 10, paragraph 4. This provision authorizes the Illinois Central to fill up certain slips fronting upon harbor district No. 2, and as to the area covered by these slips and certain other area in the vicinity fronting on Chicago River and Lake Michigan and controlled by the Illinois Central and the Michigan Central, prohibits its use, except with the consent of the city, “for the loading or unloading of freight or passengers to or from boats, except bulk freight and interchange freight or passenger traffic between boats” and the railway companies. It is by no means certain that the United States should permit these slips to be filled, and it is the opinion of the district engineer that the city of Chicago should be asked to repeal so much of the ordinance above ºrbed as would curtail the use of wharfage in the manner roposed. p This ordinance is not to become effective unless and until, within three years from its passage, “the Secretary of War shall issue all permits necessary” for the filling in of submerged lands as proposed and the requisite Federal authority shall be received by the railroad companies concerned to make the necessary expenditures. The ordinance must also by its terms, within six months after its passage, be accepted by the railroad companies concerned and by ordinance of the South Park commissioners. With respect to the filling in of certain navigable waters, the city, in the ordinance (sec. 35), requests the Secretary of War to authorize the same either by permits to the Illinois Central Railroad Co. and the South Park commissioners or through the modification and extension of existing harbor lines. The lands to be filled lie between the lines extended of Roosevelt Road (Twelfth Street) and Sixty- seventh Street. The ordinance further provides that the Illinois Central shall perform switching services for any railroad operating in Chicago, between its point of interchange with the Illinois Central and harbor district No. 3, at rates to be determined, if necessary, by the Interstate Commerce Commission or some other public agency. The ordinance reserves to the city easements for street and rail approaches to harbor district No. 3 as follows: For streets at Eighteenth Street (by subway 100 feet wide), and at Twenty-second and Thirty-first Streets (by viaducts, each 45 feet wide); for rail- way connections with Illinois Central, four double-track approaches WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1723 between Sixteenth Street and Thirty-first Street; for railway con- nections with roads west of Illinois Central, two double-track approaches, one at Eighteenth Street and one between Eighteenth and Thirty-first Streets. - - With respect to other proposed improvements involving the filling in of certain navigable waters between Roosevelt Road and Chicago River and apparently involving also the construction of a bridge across Chicago River at its mouth and of a second bridge across the northerly end º the turning and anchorage basin lying between the old break- water and the present shore line, the city, in section-3 of the Ordinance simply approves of the plan of the South Park commissioners “with such modifications thereof for the protection of navigation as may be prescribed or approved by the Secretary of War.” The improvements contemplated, respectively, north and south of Roosevelt Road thus fall in separate categories. The comprehensive plan for harbor, park, railroad, and civic devel- opment presented in this ordinance follows many years of agitation among the interests concerned, and is a matter of the largest possible concern to the local community. The first application for permission to fill submerged land along this shore upon a large scale for park pur- poses was submitted by the South Park commissioners in an applica- tion to the Secretary of War under date of August 2, 1912. There was no departmental action on this request; the park commissioners having substituted in lieu thereof an application for permission to construct bulkheads and fill behind the same in Lake Michigan be- tween Twelfth and Sixteenth Streets to provide ground upon which to erect the Field Museum. A permit for this fill was issued by the Secretary of War on October 11, 1912, and the work is practically completed. Subsequently, in November of the same year (1912), the South Park commissioners submitted two separate applications for establishment of harbor lines, one from Randolph Street to Twelfth Street, and one from Twelfth Street to Sixty-seventh Street, the areas behind the proposed harbor line to be developed for park extension. Each of dº applications sought the action of the Sec- retary of War under section 5 of the deficiency appropriation act, approved August 26, 1912, which reads as follows: - The Secretary of War is hereby authorized, in his discretion, to modify and extend harbor lines in front of the city of Chicago in such manner as to permit park extension work which may be desired by the municipal authorities, including the changing and widening of the southern entrance to the Chicago Harbor. Public hearings on the matter were conducted, one at Chicago and another before the Secretary of War, who held, in a memorandum dated December 18, 1913, that the act of August 12, 1912, limited his authority to park extension work “which may be desired by the municipal authorities;” that the papers submitted expressed only the desire of the park commissioners; that the statute undoubtedly intended action by the duly elected authorities, which have not only the park interests in view, but which represent the people with respect to the general interests of the city, including the development of the water front for the purposes of commerce. The following is a fair condensation of the Secretary's memorandum of December 18, 1913: The Secretary is of the opinion that the special authority above quoted from (the act of Aug. 26, 1912), refers to the elected municipal authorities of Chicago. The papers submitted by the park commissioners do not show that the elected city au- thorities have approved the park plans and he holds that before he can under the law 1724 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. exercise the discretion reposed in him, the city authorities must pass an ordinance approving the park plans. Such ordinance should define the city's attitude with reference to these plans and indicate what area should be reserved for harbor purposes. But if it can be shown that this park development is desired by the city authorities, and that it can be permitted while still protecting navigation interests, certain legal embarrassments are apparent which must be removed before the project can be ap- proved. Among these may be noted the fact that the park commissioners held title in trust for a special purpose and after acquiring reclaimed lands would have no power to convey to the city for harbor purposes. A further matter to be carefully considered is the status of the Illinois Central Railroad...While granting the permit will not convey title, still the company may urge that filling in parallel to its tracks will give validity to its present claims and an additional right in fee simple to a strip to be filled in. This by way of estoppel might seriously embarrass the Government in the future when acting upon plans for harbor development. Furthermore, with- out assurance from the city the Secretary does not know whether Chicago desires him to so act as to change the present status of the company’s title, and consequently he hesitates to take action that might injuriously affect the public interests. Viewing the location as a future harbor site, he considers it most undesirable to commit all transportation facilities to one corporation and thinks it advisable that the addi- tional area be made available to other transportation lines entering the city. He thinks the entire project should be considered with reference to both naviga- tion and park interests, and that he should not approve it at one point unless he is prepared to approve it substantially in some form at other points, and he is not pre- pared to say that he will do that. VIII. The railroad situation.—The belt railroads serving Chicago are the following: The Elgin, Joliet & Eastern Railroad, owned by the United States Steel Corporation, known as the outer belt, about 25 miles out from the center of the city, with one terminus at Gary, Ind., and the other at Waukegan, Ill.; the Indiana Harbor Belt Line, owned by a number of railroads, about 12 miles out; the Chicago Belt Railroad, known as the inner belt, operated by a number of railroads, about 6 miles out; the Chicago Junction Railroad, belonging to the Fº industries which control the stockyards, extending to the ake shore at Thirty-ninth Street; and the St. Charles Air Line, be- longing to a number of railroads, beginning at the intersection of Sixteenth Street with the lake shore. These belt lines are interconnected, either directly or through the railroads operating them. There are few points upon the Chicago River or its branches, or upon the Calumet River, or upon the lake shore from South Chicago eastward to Gary and beyond, which are not physically connected with all of the railroads entering Chicago. North of the Chicago River within the city limits of Chicago only the Chicago & North Western approaches the lakefront, having a spur extending to within a block or two of the municipal pier immediately north of Chicago River entrance. - The Illinois Central and the Michigan Central have trackage and water front on the south side of the Chicago River next its mouth for a distance of about 1,500 feet, and upon the lake shore immedi- ately south of the river entrance for a length of about 1,300 feet. The Illinois Central with its tracks occupies the lake shore from Sixteenth Street to Fiftieth Street. The Calumet district and the industrial harbor district, lying to the east thereof as far as Gary and beyond are excellently served by the east and west trunk lines entering Chicago and by the outer belt road. The great trouble with the rail situation within the city limits is due to entirely unnecessary confusion and congestion incident to the fact that operation is under very many independent agencies. It is almost incomprehensible that self-interest or some form of compul- WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1725 sion has not before this forced a centralization into a single manage- ment of all of the railway trackage and terminal facilities within a certain radius of the center of the city. It is indicated elsewhere in this report that the Chicago River and its branches will soon be entirely obsolete for the harborage of lake vessels; that the lake shore north of harbor district No. 1, and beginning about three-fourths of a mile north of Chicago River en- trance, is surrendered to park purposes; that from a point, about 1,300 feet south of the river entrance to Sixteenth Street, a distance of 1% miles, and again from Fifty-sixth Street to Sixty-seventh Street, and from Seventy-fifth Street to Seventy-ninth Street, Fº occupy the shore; and that from Seventy-ninth Street to and beyond Gary (except for about 5,000 feet devoted to park purposes) the lake shore and the Calumet district are devoted to or are best adapted to in- dustrial harbor usages. Thus, any great commercial (transfer) har- bor which present or changing conditions may bring to Chicago must be between Sixteenth Street, and, say, Fiftieth Street, where now the Tllinois Central tracks hug the shore, where the city and the South Park commissioners propose to fill in a marginal park about one-half mile wide, and where a city ordinance, approved July 3, 1919, has declared a harbor district (No. 3) extending from near Sixteenth Street to Thirty-first Street. It is proposed by the city (and the Tllinois Central and the South Park commissioners will doubtless assent thereto) that there shall be reserved rights of way across the marginal tracks and the proposed marginal park for one subway 100 feet wide, two viaducts each 45 feet wide, a double-track railroad at Eighteenth Street (the St. Charles Air Line), and a double-track railroad between Eighteenth and Thirty-first Streets (the Chicago Junction Belt). - . In the opinion of the district engineer, if any marginal park is per- mitted by the War Department to be built §. Sixteenth and Forty-seventh Streets it should be with ample reservations for taking all but a narrow part of it for harbor purposes if deemed necessary in the future, and for crossing the remaining park and the Illinois Central right of way wherever crossings by road or rail shall be required for proper service of the harbor area. & rior to 1917, 35 so-called railroad owned and controlled vessels, carrying high-class package freight, docked in the Chicago River and interchanged traffic with various railroads. By a ruling of the Inter- state Commerce Commission under the provisions of the Panama Canal act these vessels are not now operating in this trade, and there is practically no interchange of freight between rail and water lines at the present time. • For maps showing the railway situation, attention is invited to House Document No. 237, Sixty-third Congress, first session, en- titled “Chicago Harbor and Adjacent Waterways.” CALUMET RIVER HARBOR. Location and description.—Calumet River Harbor, as considered in this report, consists of the Grand and the Little Calumet Rivers unit- ing about 7 miles from the lake to form Calumet River, which enters the lake about 12% miles South from Chicago Harbor, and of the area in the lake adjacent to the mouth of the river, which is protected by a breakwater. This breakwater connects with the shore about 3,000 1726 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. feet north of the river entrance, extends east 4,463 feet, thence south- easterly 2,460 feet, and shelters from northeasterly and northerly seas about 366 acres of anchorage ground, with depths of 19 to 30 feet. The Indiana-Illinois State line passes due north through this anchor- #. area, but the Calumet Rivers are entirely within the State of Tllinois. The entrance to Calumet River is between two piers about 300 feet apart, but each frontage is now occupied by industrial plants and the piers are not under maintenance. The Calumet River from its mouth to “the Forks,” about 5% miles, where an entrance has been made into Lake Calumet, is under im- provement by the United States to a depth of 21 feet. In this reach there are 13 slips opening into the river of total length about 13,000 feet, which are used for various purposes, such as commercial han- dling of grain, coal, ore, and sand, and for shipbuilding. About 33 per cent of the river banks is occupied by industrial plants, mostly of the largest size. Lake Calumet is a shallow but legally navigable body of water about 3 square miles in area, which has been reserved by the city of Chicago as a part of harbor district No. 4. The Little Calumet enters from the westward and is not at present used by other than small pleasure craft. The Grand Calumet enters from the southeast, passing through the territory immediately back of Gary and Indiana Harbors and connecting with the Indiana Harbor Canal. Local interests have for some years been negotiating for donation to the United States of land along the Grand Calumet for the purpose of making this river available for commerce. Between the lake and the Forks the river is crossed by eight rail- way and four highway bridges, with a least vertical clearance when closed of 5.7 feet and a minimum width of draw opening of 65 feet. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a breakwater protecting an anchorage area and the entrance to Calumet River, the deepening of the anchorage area to 21 feet and of the river to the same depth for a width of 200 feet, from the lake up to the Forks with five turning basins. This work has been completed except the construction of turning basins Nos. 2 and 4. Water commerce, character and eatent.—The water-borne commerce . of Calumet Harbor and River consists principally of coal, iron ore, sand, crushed limestone, and grain. Coal from Lake Erie, iron ore from Lake Superior, and crushed limestone from Calcite, Mich., con- stitute the principal receipts, all for consumption in local industries, while the principal shipment is grain for eastern lake ports. There was shipped by water in 1918 45,100,000 bushels of grain, consisting largely of wheat for trans-Atlantic relief. Comparative statement. * Published Probable Calendar year.

There is no package freight business. During the year the total number of arrivals and departures of all classes of vessels, as shown by customhouse records, was 2,247. Terminal and transfer facilities.—All terminal facilities on the lake front and the entrance channel up to the Elgin, Joliet & Eastern Railway bridge are owned and operated by the Illinois Steel Co. and the Iroquois Iron Co. The Illinois Steel Co.'s terminals consist of two slips, one 2,900 feet long opening inland from the lake front adja- cent to the shore end of the breakwater, and one about 1,300 feet long from the river channel. It also owns about 2,500 feet of wharf along the lake front protected by the breakwater, but not used for vessel landings. The wharf of the Iroquois Iron Co., about 1,400 feet long, is lo- cated along the line of the old south pier, which it is replacing under authority of the Secretary of War. These terminals are used exclusively by the above mentioned companies for the receipt of iron ore, flux stone, etc. The river banks are owned by various private and industrial con- cerns which handle iron ore, coal, grain, lumber, etc. About 3,600 feet is in use for ship-building purposes. Among the larger concerns are the International Harvester Co., General Chemical Co., Semet Solvay Co., Federal Furnace Co., Wisconsin Steel Co., Chicago Ship Building Co. (operating two dry docks), and numerous grain ele- Vators and other industries. About 1.4 miles below the forks is located the reinforced concrete grain elevator just completed for the Armour Grain Co. This elevator, said to be the largest in the world, has a capacity of 6,000,000 bushels and is expected to be enlarged at an early date to a capacity of 8,000,000 or 10,000,000 bushels. Along this river there are, aside from the Armour elevator above described, 12 elevators, occupying a frontage of 8,290 feet and having a storage capacity of 14,300,000 bushels. The terminals, both on the lake front and on the river, are well equipped with mechanical devices for loading and unloading bulk cargoes. They are fully adequate to meet the demands of present COIſl100 €I’C6 ...' are capable of such expansion as to keep pace with º prospective increase. he rapid development of this district as a manufacturing center, is due largely to the abundance of large tracts of cheap land suitable for the establishment of important industries, the navigation facili- ties afforded by the Calumet River with its comparatively straight channel and freedom from obstructive bridges, and the facilities offered by the numerous railroads, such as the New York Central (both Lake Shore and Michigan Central Divisions); Illinois Central; Baltimore & Ohio; Pennsylvania; New York, Chicago & St. Louis; Chicago & Western Indiana; Indiana Harbor Belt, etc., which are now or readily may be connected with all parts of the harbor and connecting waters. Port administration.—The navigation of Calumet Harbor and River is subject to regulations made and administered by the city of Chicago. The port is in direct charge of a harbor master acting under the direction of the commissioner of public works. There are 1728 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. no port charges. The opening of drawbridges is governed by regulations prescribed by the Secretary of War in pursuance of an act of Congress. Public ownership and control.—There are no wharves owned or controlled by the public. e Public interest and cooperation.—Public interest and cooperation are not evident in any attempt to establish public wharves, but the continued growth of the industries using the port and the yearly increase in tonnage show an active interest and cooperation by that part º the public represented and affected by the industries con- CeI’IlêOl. Special considerations.—The Calumet River Harbor of Chicago will take care of itself in an economic sense for many years to come. There is still much vacant land there relatively cheap. Commerce tends to increase due to the establishment of new industrial plants and to the removal there from Chicago River of a large business in the shipping of grain. Bridges have not yet become so numerous as to be greatly obstructive. The city will probably soon develop Calumet Lake for industrial harbor usages. The Calumet River may be further deepened and straightened from its upper limit of navigability until it connects with the Indiana Harbor Canal. Attention is invited to the general discussion of the Chicago Harbor problem under the preceding head of “Chicago Harbor.” INDIANA HARBOR, IND. Location and description.—Indiana Harbor is located about 18 miles southeast of Chicago Harbor and is entirely artificial in char- acter, its original construction having been by private enterprise. A channel was dredged inland from the lake on a southwesterly course for about 7,400 feet, thence southerly about 2 miles to a connection with Grand Calumet River, about 15,000 feet east of the Illinois–Indiana State line. From the angle above mentioned a branch extends westerly about 8,500 feet to Lake George. The lake entrance was protected by piers, and the inland channel is officially known as the “Canal.” This harbor is unique in that it is located at the only place on Lake Michigan which is shut off from deep-water connection by a series of bars approximately parallel to the shore and extending several miles lakeward. The only entrance from the lake is from the northward on a course paralleling the shore between these bars with a sharp turn to enter the harbor. As originally constructed the entrance was by nearly a half-circle turn, owing to the north pier being turned to the southward as a protection from northeast seas. Under the project for improvement by the United States adopted in 1910 the entrance to the canal was straightened, the piers were replaced by solid wharf fronts built and owned by the Mark Manu- facturing Co. on the north and by the Inland Steel Co. on the south, and two detached breakwaters are now under construction. The northerly of these is of rubble-mound construction on a due-east course and is approaching completion. The easterly one is to be of concrete caisson construction and will be begun in 1919. When completed, the area sheltered by the two breakwaters will be about 260 acres. The canal has been accepted for maintenance by the * WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1729 United States up to the Forks and for 900 feet on the Lake George branch, but only for a bottom width of 80 feet with depth of 20 feet. Between the lake and the angle in the canal the latter is crossed by Seven railroad and two highway bridges, five of the railroad bridges being closely grouped at the immediate entrance and causing very material delay to passing vessels by reason of their having to be opened all at the same time. The least vertical clearance under these bridges when closed is 4.3 feet, and the narrowest draw opening is 62.5 feet. Existing project.—The existing project provides for a northerly rubble-mound breakwater 3,700 feet long and an easterly reinforced concrete caisson breakwater 3,024 feet long, protecting an Outer harbor 300 feet wide and 22 feet deep, gradually increasing in width and depth toward the lake, and the maintenance of the inner harbor channel (canal) 20 feet deep from the outer harbor to Lake George and the Grand Calumet River, to be assumed, as fast as the channel is dredged, by private interests, and the bridges are provided with proper draw openings. Water commerce, character and extent.—The water-borne commerce of Indiana Harbor consists almost entirely of iron ore, coal, crushed stone (calcite), lumber, and oil. Ore from Lake Superior, coal from Lake Erie, and crushed stone from Michigan constitute the principal receipts, all for consumption in local industries, and oil destined for other lake ports is practically the only shipment. Oil shipment in 1918 was 157,700,000 gallons. This commerce is rapidly increasing , as shown by the following table: Comparative statement. Probable Calendar year. Short tons. Value. 1914----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1,669,455 | 11,680,013 1916----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2,001,374 || 14, 191,028 1916----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2,043,498 || 14,772,698 1917----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2,209,165 18, 197,996 1918----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3,098,692 || 29,657,264 Vessels, size and type.—All commerce at this port is handled by bulk carriers of 6,000 to 12,000 tons, except that the lumber arrives on smaller barges. During the year 1918 the total number of arrivals and departures of all classes of vessels, as shown by customhouse records, was 358. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The terminal facilities at the harbor proper are those for unloading of ore, coal, and stone owned by two steel companies, and of modern and excellent design. In the canal the comparatively small lumber receipts are man handled, and the oil shipments are piped directly on board from the Standard Oil Works at Whiting, Ind., about 2 miles north. Indiana Harbor is immediately on the main lines of several large railway systems, viz: Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio, New York Central (Lake Shore Division), and is also served by the Fº Joliet & Eastern and the Indiana Harbor Belt. As fast as plants are located they are fully served by rail connections of exceptional value. The harbor is located in a region rich in water and railway facilities, 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—109 1730 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. and indications point to its rapid development as a manufacturing district, though there are no present attempts to transfer traffic. Port administration.—There is no port administration. Public ownership and control.—The municipality has purchased sites for two water terminals which are to be developed and open to public use; but nothing has yet been done toward the building of wharves, warehouses, or railway connections. One site is on the southerly bank of the canal at Canal Street and is readily accessible to the various industrial plants which are relatively near. It has a 300-foot frontage and is 150 feet deep. The other site is on the west bank of the main canal at One hundred and forty-first Street, about 1,800 feet south of the Forks, and has a frontage of 600 feet and a depth of 50 feet. Public interest and cooperation.—The public interest is manifested by the purchase of these sites for public use, the original construc- tion of the harbor by local interests, and the continued efforts by these interests to encourage the location of large industrial plants on Indiana Harbor waters. - Special considerations.—Indiana Harbor is best adapted to in- dustrial harbor usages, and its interests, notwithstanding its loca- tion in another state, will eventually be intimately joined to those of Chicago. Reference is therefore made to the general discussion under “Special considerations,” Chicago Harbor. GARY HARBOR, IND. Location and description.—Gary Harbor is located at the extreme south end of Lake Michigan, about 12% miles from South Chicago (Calumet Harbor). It is entirely artificial, having been constructed by the Indiana Steel Co., now a subsidiary of the United States Steel Corporation, in 1906–8, and operated since exclusively by those interests. No funds of the general government have ever been ex- pended on the harbor, even the harbor lights being maintained by the corporation. The corporation owns and controls, not only the harbor, but a large section of the surrounding territory, and has built up a city of nearly 60,000 population. The harbor consists of a dredged slip 250 feet wide extending inland from the normal lake shore about 4,000 feet. The entrance is protected by piers, and by a timber breakwater 3,200 feet long. Both banks of the slip are occupied by ore handling machinery of modern pattern and the receipts (there are no shipments by water) are about 4,000,000 tons of ore and other materials used in local manufacture of steel, brought in by the largest class of lake carriers making 500 to 600 trips during the navigation season. MICHIGAN CITY HARBOR, IND. Location and description.—Michigan City Harbor is located on the southeasterly shore of Lake Michigan, about 38 miles on an air line and about 48 miles by coast from Chicago Harbor. It has not recently been of commercial importance, as the receipts and ship- ments by the many large local industries are entirely by rail. The harbor consists of the dredged channel of Trail Creek, the entrance to which between two piers is protected by a detached breakwater WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1781 (timber). Immediately eastward of and adjoining the east pier is the old outer basin, about 35 acres in extent, formed many years ago by a detached breakwater and the east pier which protected the original entrance, about 1,500 feet east of the present entrance. This basin is now available for use of small pleasure craft only, and the upper portion of the channel has shoaled so as to be without practical value. - . Existing project.—The existing project provides for a detached breakwater, east and west entrance piers, and a dredged channel 15 feet deep, 120 to 150 feet wide and about two miles long up to the Lake Erie & Western Railroad Bridge, together with three turning basins; it also continues to carry the old outer basin, protected by the original east pier and detached breakwater. This project has never been completed, there remaining to be done 200 feet of break- water and the dredging of about 1,300 feet of the channel and parts of the turning basins. . Water commerce, character and extent.—The water commerce of Michigan City Harbor is of very small extent and consists of lumber, pulp, and miscellaneous package freight, together with a consider- able fishing industry id: a decreasing passenger trade, the latter being but 26,000 in 1918 as compared with something like 200,000 several years ago. All receipts except fish are for consumption by local manufacturing concerns, and fish is shipped out by rail. The city is on one of the main lines of the New York Central system (Michigan Central Division) and is one of the termini of the Lake Erie and Western Railroad. - - The commerce for 1918 amounted to 12,177 tons, valued at $1,037,990. Vessels, size and type.—Wessels using this harbor are fishing tugs, lumber barges of 400 to 500 tons, and the medium class of passenger excursion boats carrying package freight. During the year 1918 the total number of arrivals and departures of all classes of vessels, as shown by the customhouse records was 37. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The Goodrich Transportation Co. operates a wharf and warehouse almost entirely for excursion gº for a short time in the summer season. The Michigan entral Railroad has spur tracks along a portion of the frontage, but there are no mechanical appliances for handling freight. Port administration.—There is no port administration. Public ownership.–The municipality owns about 950 feet of wharf front, but it has been only partially improved and is not in use. Public interest and cooperation.—Efforts are being made by the recently organized Chamber of Commerce to attract such industrial plants as will make use of the harbor, which is at present of little public importance. ILLINOIS RIVER, ILL. . . Location and description.—The Illinois River is entirely within the State of Illinois and is formed by the confluence of the Des. Plaines and Kankakee Rivers about 50 miles above La Salle. It flows southwesterly and empties into the Mississippi River near Grafton, Ill., about 36 miles above St. Louis. The total length of the river is 273 miles, its low-water slope is about 0.15 foot per mile, its low-water discharge (as now augmented by the Sanitary District. 1732 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. withdrawal from Lake Michigan) is something like 10,000 second- feet and its flood discharge about 130,000 second-feet. The width between banks is about 600 feet at La Salle gradually widening to 1,400 feet at the mouth, except for a stretch of 16 miles at Peoria Lake where the width is about 1 mile. The range from low water to flood stage varies from 9 to 20 feet, averaging about 14 feet and the bottom lands are often overflowed to the bluffs, a width of several miles; a large acreage of these bottom lands has, however, been leveed and protected from overflow. The river is navigable in fact for river craft up to La Salle, there being a low water depth of 6 feet throughout. ** There are four locks and dams at intervals along the river, the locks being 350 by 75 feet with 7 feet over miter sills, and the dams of such height that boats drawing 4 feet can pass over them except at ex- treme low water. One is located at Henry, 196 miles above the mouth, and one at Copperas Creek, 137 miles above the mouth, both built and maintained by the State of Illinois; one is located at La Grange, 77% miles above the mouth, and one at Kampsville, 31} miles above the mouth, both built and maintained by the United States. - The largest city on the river is Peoria, with a population of about 72,000, which, with La Salle, Peru, Pekin, Havana, and Beardstown, are the only cities having railroad facilities adjacent to the river. The Illinois and Mississippi (ordinarily known as Hennepin) Canal connects this river, from 13 miles below La Salle, with the Mississippi River at Rock Island, Ill. The canal is 75 miles long, with 33 locks, each 150 by 35 feet, having 7 feet over miter sills. Existing project.—That portion of the river now under improve- ment by the United States from La Salle, the present head of naviga- tion, to the mouth at Grafton, is divided into two sections, viz, (a) below Copperas Creek (general improvement), 137 miles, and (b) from Copperas Creek to La Salle, 86 miles. (a) Below Copperas Creek (general improvement): The existing roject for work below Copperas Creek contemplates improvement to a 7-foot depth at low water of 1879 by dredging and by the construc- tion of one lock each at Kampsville, 31% miles above the mouth of the river, and at La Grange, 77% miles above the mouth. Each lock is 350 feet long between sills and 75 feet wide, with 7 feet on the miter sills at low water of 1879. There has been no modification of this broiect. | % Copperas Creek to La Salle: Since 1880 this section has not been a part of the general improvement prosecuted by the United States, but the river and harbor act of March 2, 1907, specifically appropriated $50,000 for this section, to be applied to dredging and other improvement. |Water commerce, character and extent.—The commerce of the river consists principally of grain, live stock, coal, logs, apples, general merchandise, and passenger-excursion business. This is carried mostly in the smaller size river craft, though there are several large- size boats used for excursions. The following table indicates a gradual but decided increase in tonnage and value, and in addition thereto there was recorded, in 1918, 32,500 passengers. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1733 Comparative statement. Calendar year.

About 75 per cent of tonnage is carried on a draft of 5 to 6 feet. Terminal and transfer facilities.—The comparatively small water- borne commerce on the Illinois River has not developed any modern transfer facilities, and except at the larger towns and cities there are no rail connections. Those connections which exist are little used and are mostly incident to the occupation of the river bank by rail- roads for their own convenience of location. The terminal facilities afforded by the various towns along the river are generally crude and inadequate. So far as is known only nine towns own water frontage and only one, Peru, has any ware- house facilities. At Peru, a pile and timber wharf furnishing a small landing place at all stages of the river has been built by the city. Peoria, the largest city on the river, has improved about 1,000 linear feet of levee and in April, 1918, voted bonds in the amount of $250,000 for the construction of an extensive water terminal. After the expenditure of $25,000 these bonds were de- clared illegal and all work stopped. At Beardstown and Naples, streets have been extended and paved to low-water line for use as boat landings. The towns of Henry, Chillicothe, Havana, Kamps- ville, and Hardin own water frontage but have provided no im- provements. With the exception of Peoria there are no wharf charges at any of these cities. Warehouses owned or controlled by the Eagle Packet Co. are located at Hardin, Crater, Kampsville, Webbs, Naples, Beardstown, and Peoria, while the La Salle & Peoria Packet Co. own and operate warehouses at Chillicothe, Lacon, Henry, Hennepin, and Peru. In addition about 30 warehouses scattered at various points along the river are owned and operated by private parties as agents for the several lines. Small local elevators exist at a number of different localities and there is a large receiving elevator at Pekin, which is the only one having railroad connections. With the exception of the grain elevators, none of the terminals are provided with mechanical appliances for loading or unloading. The packets move most of their freight on and off the boats by trucks when the landing is such that they can be used, otherwise it is carried by the deck hands. Apples in barrels are rolled on and off the boats. The grain companies load probably 75 per cent of the cargoes from the small elevators where the grain has been stored; the rest is brought to the river in Small lots at various points and is loaded into the barges by portable elevators, and delivered to the I734 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. receiving elevator at Pekin. The coal companies have tracks from the mines to the river bank. Tramcars are loaded in the mine, hauled to the dock at the river by mules and dumped onto boats or barges. Gravel and sand are pumped from the river onto barges and unloaded on the bank by derricks using a clamshell dipper. Logs are hauled to the river by team, loaded onto barges by a floating º: towed to the mill by a towboat, and unloaded by a floating €I’I’ICK. Port administration.—There is no port administration except at Peoria where wharfage fees are charged. Rules and regulations to govern the opening of drawbridges are prescribed by the Secretary of War under authority of the river and harbor act of August 18, 1894. - Public ownership and control.-As stated above, the city of Peoria owns and has improved about 1,000 linear feet of levee for a public landing. At Beardstown and Naples street ends are utilized as public landings. The towns of Henry, Chillicothe, Havana, Kamps- ville, and Hardin have public landings but have provided no improve- ments. There are no public warehouses or elevators on the river open to carriers. Public interest and cooperation.—The only evidence of public interest and cooperation is the voting of $250,000 in bonds by the people of Peoria in April, 1918, for the improvement of the public water terminal, and it is unfortunate that this progressive move should have been discounted by any question of its legality.

The St. Marys River forms the outlet of Lake Superior, connecting it with Lake Huron. The fall in the river is about 21 feet, the greater part of this fall, or about 19% feet, occurring in a distance of 14 miles at St. Marys Falls, where the city of Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., is located and where locks are provided for passing the largest vessels engaged in the carrying of freight between Lake Superior and the º lakes. The river is shown on Lake Survey Charts Nos. 61, 62, and 63. The project for the improvement of this river contemplates an available §: of 21 feet, at low water datum, for a least width of 600 feet where all traffic uses the same channel, and least width of 300 feet where the upbound and downbound traffic are separated. These depths and widths have already been secured. During the past 10 years the traffic through the river has averaged 76,000,000 tons per year with a minimum of 41,000,000 in 1908 and maximum of 92,000,000 in 1916. This is practically all through traffic, about two-thirds of it being bound from Lake Superior to lower lake ports. The river is used by all types of vessels operating on the Great Lakes. The largest vessels are over 600 feet long and 60 to 68 feet beam, capable of loading to a draft of 22 feet. There are no important harbors in St. Marys River and none which has been improved by public funds except as incidental to the main- tenance of through channels. SAULT STE. MARIE, MICH. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., is a city of about 13,000 inhabitants, lo- cated at the Falls of the St. Marys River. The harbor front borders the river, about 2% miles having been improved for landings with depths of 15 to 24 feet, and about 13 miles of the front being occupied by the lock and canal walls of St. Marys Falls Canal. The principal wharves are those for the receipt of coal required for local industries and ships’ bunkers, and a private wharf, open to all on equal terms, for the receipt and shipment of local miscellaneous freight, which amounts to only about 5,000 tons annually. The Union Carbide Co. receives annually about 40,000 tons of coal and coke used in its in- dustry. The company has a slip 400 feet long, with wharf alongside equipped with crane hoist, unloading from vessel to small cable-oper- ated automatic dump cars running on elevated track to storage area in vicinity of its plant. The Pittsburgh Coal Co., the Kemp Coal Co., and the Perry Coal Co. receive annually about 120,000 tons of soft and hard coal for ships’ bunkers and local consumption. The 1764 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1765 wharves are equipped with traveling cranes for unloading to stock Fº The terminal facilities are suitable and adequate for the traffic. Three railroads enter the city at a common depot—the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie, the Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic, and the Canadian Pacific. There is a spur-line connection to the Pitts- burgh Coal Co. wharf for shipping coal by rail, and a belt line run- ning to the wharf of the Union Carbide Co., mainly used for receipt of raw materials and shipment of finished product. This belt line also serves other industries and may be used for transshipment of freight between rail and water carriers, though there is no mutual contract for such interchange and the amount of such traffic is nomi- nal. All wharves are reached by adequate highways, being imme- diately adjacent to city streets. The local traffic is adequately served by present private wharves, and the amount of such traffic does not warrant the construction of a public terminal. LIME ISLAND, MICH. The Pittsburgh Coal Co. has a fueling wharf adjoining the deep water of Mud Lake in St. Marys River at Lime }. , 36 miles below Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. The wharf is equipped with traveling cranes for unloading, and elevated bins for fueling. The island is not accessible by rail and no highways are required. A public terminal is not needed. tº § DETOUR, MICH. The mouth of St. Marys River forms the harbor of Detour, and no public funds have been expended for local improvement. There are tWO º wharves equipped with traveling cranes for unloading ...to stock piles, and one wharf for miscellaneous freight, the amount of which is nominal. The facilities are suitable for the requirements. There are no railroads serving the village, but the wharves are reached by adequate highways. No public terminal is needed. MACKINAC HARBOR, MICH. Mackinac Harbor is on the southeast end of Mackinac Island, which is situated in the Straits of Mackinac at the northern end of Lake Huron. It is shown on the United States Lake Survey charts Nos. 5, 6, and 60. The harbor is protected by two break- waters constructed by the United States, and is fairly safe and commodious. There are two privately owned piers, having 18 feet depth of water, which are accessible to boats on both sides. The use of these piers is subject to arrangements with the owner. . The freight traffic averages about 20,000 tons H. annum. One of the piers is equipped with traveling crane for handling coal, while the other is used for miscellaneous freight, which is nominal in amount, and for the passenger traffic, which, is considerable, as the island is used as a summer resort. The harbor is used by the smaller type of lake freighters and better class of passenger boats. The terminal facili- ties are suitable and adequate for the commerce. 1766 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. . There are no railroads to the island. The terminal is reached by improved local highways. The character and volume of traffic do not warrant a public terminal. CHEBOYGAN HARBOR, MICH. The city of Cheboygan, having a population of about 7,000, is located at the mouth of Cheboygan River. The harbor, which is shown on United States Lake Survey charts Nos. 5, 6, and 66, includes about 1 mile of the river from its mouth to a privately owned lock and dam, and about 6,000 feet of entrance channel extending to deep water in the Straits of Mackinac. The project of improve- ment provides for a depth of 184 feet from the lake to the State Road Bridge, about 2,000 feet above the mouth of the river, the present depth being about 17 feet. The wharves are privately owned and are located along the river front, the principal one being leased to the Detroit & Mackinac Line of steamers. The freight traffic in recent years has averaged about 140,000 tons per annum, of which about 75,000 tons is timber and timber products, and 28,000 tons coal. Vessels using the harbor are the smaller type of lake freightërs and better class of passenger boats. The existing terminals are con- sidered sufficient for the existing commerce. The Michigan Central and the Detroit & Mackinac Railroads enter the city, and have spur line connecting with the terminal, but there is no special agreement for interchange of traffic, though some coal and railroad ties are thus interchanged. Public terminals are not warranted by the present traffic. ROGERS CITY HARBOR, MICH. Rogers is a village on the shore of Lake Huron about 6 miles below Forty Mile Point. The port is an open roadstead with no natural harbor, the wharves extending into the lake. The United States : has dredged a channel across the bar, giving depth of 14% feet and width of 130 feet. There are four privately owned wharves, or piers, having a depth of water alongside of from 8 to 14 feet. The traffic at present amounts to only about 7,000 tons per year, composed mainly of timber and timber products, with some general merchandise for local use. The present terminals are sufficient for existing commerce. The village is on a branch of the Detroit.& Mackinac Railroad but there are no spurs leading to the wharves. The latter are reached, however, by improved and adequate highways. The existing and prospective commerce does not warrant the con- struction of a public terminal. CALCITE, MICH. The harbor at Calcite was built by private interests in connection with the development of important limestone quarries about 1% miles below Rogers City. Excellent wharves are provided by the owners, capable of accommodating at one time two boats of the largest class on the lakes, and modern equipment for loading. . The traffic is prac- tically confined to the shipment of limestone and has grown rapidly to its present volume of over 4,000,000 tons annually. The terminal facilities are excellent. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1767 The terminal has a private spur line connecting with the Detroit &#Mackinac Railroad, but there is no occasion for transfer since the commodity originates at the site. Adequate highways connect with the terminal. There isłno need of a public terminal. #. ALPEN A HARBOR, MICII. Alpena, Mich., is a city with a population of about 13,000, located on the northwest shore of Thunder Bay, Lake Huron, at the mouth of Thunder Bay River. The project of improvement provides for a channel 16% feet deep from that depth in Thunder Bay to a point one mile above the mouth of the river. The present depth is from 14 to 16 feet. The terminal facilities consist mainly of wharves along the river near the mouth, which are, in general, of pile construction and all privately owned. . The dockage charges for 100 pounds of package freight, which is carried mainly by passenger steamers of the Detroit and Cleveland Navigation Co., vary from 3 cents for class No. 6, to 8 cents for class No. 1. The traffic in the harbor proper amounts to about 300,000 tons annually, two-thirds of which is coal. The fa- cilities are believed to be suited to the traffic. In Thunder Bay, about a mile above the river, are the wharves of the Huron Portland Cement Co., equipped for the shipment of cement and stone, the volume of this traffic amounting to about 700,000 tons annually. The Detroit & Mackinac Railroad enters the city of Alpena and rivate spurs connect with several of the wharves, furnishing facilities or interchange of traffic between water and rail, although the amount of such traffic is nominal. The wharves are reached by improved and adequate highways. It is considered the traffic does not warrant the construction of a public terminal. SAGINAW RIVER, MICH. The Saginaw River is formed by the junction of the Tittabawassee and Shiawassee Rivers at the southerly limits of the city of Saginaw flows northerly 22 miles, and discharges into Saginaw Bay, Lake Huron. The United States has dredged a channel from deep water in Saginaw Bay to the mouth of the river, and thence throughout the length of the river, the present available depth being about 16 feet. The cities of Saginaw and Bay City border on the Saginaw River, and are reached by the improved channels. The marine traffic of the two cities, for the past five years, averaged about 158,000 tons annually. BAY CITY, MICH. This city, located on the Saginaw River near its mouth, has a popu- lation of about 50,000. Its wharves, for handling coal, lumber and general merchandise, are located along the riverfront. These wharves have from 11 to 15 feet of water and are, in general, privately owned but some of them are open to public use upon equal terms. The principal commodity received by water is lumber, which is discharged at the wharves of the consignees, and after milling is shipped out mainly by rail. The municipality controls the waterfront at the foot of several streets and opposite a city park, but in general miscellaneous freight for the ºf public is received over commercial landings. 1768 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. It is considered the terminal facilities are suitable for the traffic involved, the coal wharves being supplied with steam hoists. There are three railroads, the É. Trunk, Michigan Central, and Detroit & Mackinac, all of which have spur line connections to one or more wharves; the Michigan Central Railroad has a wharf on the main line of its tracks, but there is believed to be no mutual contract for interchange of traffic, which is of very limited extent. The wharves are reached by improved and adequate highways. º: present terminals are considered sufficient to serve existing traffic. SAGINAW, MICH. The city of Saginaw, having a population of about 80,000, is situated at the head of the Saginaw River, and the wharves are located along both sides of the river bank for the handling of lumber, coal, and general merchandise. The municipality has a wharf with 12 feet of water. The other wharves are privately owned, but several are open to public use and to all vessels on equal terms. Most of the wharves are provided with railroad connection, and some of them are º with cranes for handling coal, machinery and merchandise. The terminal facilities are considered suited to existing traffic conditions. The Pere Marquette Railroad and Michigan Central Railroad enter the city, and have spur and belt line connections to the several docks. The Pere Marquette Railroad makes free delivery of cars which have come over its road, to all spurs controlled by it. There is believed to be no agreement regarding interchange of traffic between lake and rail lines, but considerable quantities of timber are received by boat and distributed mainly by rail. The wharves are reached by adequate, improved highways. No further public terminals are considered necessary. HARBOR BEACH, MICH. At the city of Harbor Beach, located on the shore of Lake Huron, an artificial harbor of refuge for through vessels has been formed by the United States by the construction of breakwaters inclosing about a square mile of area. Within the harbor there is one privately owned pier, open to private use upon equal terms, for which a dockage charge for package freight of 10 cents per 100 pounds is made. All classes of vessels enter the harbor, but only the smaller freighters use the terminal. The wharf is considered suitable for existing traffic, which amounts to about 20,000 tons per annum. A private spur line connects the terminal with the Pere Marquette Railroad, and arrangements exist for interchange of traffic, although such traffic is nominal. The terminal is reached by adequate im- proved highways. The amount of traffic does not warrant a public terminal. ST. CLAIR RIVER, MICH. The St. Clair River flows from Lake Huron in a general southerly direction into Lake St. Clair. The length of the river along the vessel route is about 40 miles, and its fall is about 5.5 feet. The project for the improvement of this river contemplates a depth of 20 feet at low-water datum for a least width of 650 feet where all WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1769 traffic uses the same channel and for a least width of 300 feet where upbound and downbound traffic are separated. These depths and widths have been secured, except for a downbound channel of 400 feet width opposite the city of Port Huron, near the head of the T1WeI’. The amount and character of traffic through St. Clair River is about the same as that heretofore stated for St. Marys River. PORT HURON, MICH. The city of Port Huron, with a population of about 25,000, is located at the mouth of Black River, Mich., where the latter empties into the St. Clair River, 2 miles below the foot of Lake Huron. The wharves are located along both sides of Black River, which has been improved to a depth of 17 feet, and along the water front on St. Clair River, where a similar depth has been made in some cases, while in others natural deep water exists. The wharves are mainly of pile construction and all are privately owned, but suitable to existing traffic conditions. A sufficient number are open to public use on equal terms to care for the existing commerce, and the dockage charges on package freight are combined with the freight rates. The annual commerce amounts to about 120,000 tons, about one-half of which is coal for local use. Two railroads, the Pere Marquette and the Grand Trunk, enter the city and have spur connections to some of the terminals. In past years there has been a mutual agreement between the Grand Trunk and the Port Huron & Duluth Steamship Co. for interchange of traffic by rail and water, but this is not now in operation. The Pere Mar- quette Railroad operates a car ferry, carrying rail freight between Port Huron, Mich., and Sarnia, Ontario. The terminals are reached by adequate improved city streets. It is considered that no public terminal is required. ST. CLAIR, MICH. The city of St. Clair, with a population of about 3,000, is located on the St. Clair River at the mouth of Pine River. Along the St. Clair River front no dredging has been required. Pine River has been improved by the United States to a depth of 14 feet for a dis- tance of 2,500 feet from the mouth, but no dredging has been done in recent years. The wharves are located mainly along the St. Clair River front and are adequate for the existing commerce, which is Small. The Michigan Central Railroad enters the city, but there is no physical connection between the railroad and the water terminal and no call for transfer of freight between rail and water. The wharves are reached by adequate improved highways. No need exists for a public terminal. MARINE CITY, MICH. Marine City, with a population of about 4,000, is located on the St. Clair River at the mouth of Belle River. No dredging has been required along the St. Clair River front. Belle River has been im- proved by the United States to a depth of 14 feet for a distance of 1770 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. about 5,000 feet from the mouth, but no dredging has been done in recent years. The wharves are located mainly along the St. Clair ...; front and are adequate for the existing commerce, which is SIſla,II. The Detroit United Railroad enters the city over the interurban electric tracks and operates freight cars between the hours of mid- night and 5 a. m. There is no physical connection between the rail- road and the water terminal, and no call for transfer of freight between rail and water. The wharves are reached by adequate improved highways. No need exists for a public terminal. ALGONAC, MICH. Algonac is a village, located at the head of the delta of the St. Clair River, having natural deep water along its water front, so that no improvement with public funds has been made or required. A number of small wharves are located along the St. Clair River, having a depth of water alongside of from 7 to 12 feet. The harbor facilities are adequate for the existing commerce, which is very small. The Detroit United Railroad enters the village over the interurban electric tracks and operates freight cars between the hours of midnight and 5 a. m. There is no physical connection with the railroad and the water terminal and no call for transfer of freight between rail and water. The wharves are reached by adequate improved highways. No need exists for a public terminal. CLINTON RIVER, MICH. The Clinton River is about 60 miles in length and empties into Anchor Bay, which forms the northwesterly part of Lake St. Clair. The project of improvement provides for a channel 8 feet deep from that º in Lake Clair to and up the river to the city of Mount Clemens, a distance of about 8 miles. The present controlling depth is about 6 feet. At Mount Clemens there is one wharf owned by the city that is adequate for existing general commerce and open to all on equal terms. In addition, there are several privately owned wharves for coal, lumber, and building supplies. The traffic amounts to only about 11,000 tons annually. The Grand Trunk Railroad enters the city, but there is no physical connection with the water terminal. Adequate highways reach the wharves. No need exists for a public terminal. MONROE HARBOR, MICH. The city of Monroe, Mich., with a population of about 10,000, is located on the Raisin River, about 2% miles above its mouth. The Raisin River is about 70 miles long, emptying into the west end of Lake Erie, 18 miles from the city of Toledo. The river has been improved from the lake as far as the lower wharves at Monroe, the i. depth, however, being only about 7 feet. The wharves are ocated along about 850 feet of the river and are privately owned. The terminal facilities are considered ample for the traffic, which amounts to only about 8,000 tons of gravel, sand, and fish. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1771 Four railroads enter the city, viz, Michigan Central, Pere Marquette, Lake Shore & Michigan Southern, and Detroit, Toledo & Ironton. There is no physical connection between the railroads and water terminals and no commerce to be transferred. Adequate highways reach the wharves. No need exists for a public terminal. DETROIT RIVER, MICH. The Detroit River flows in a general southerly direction and its length, by vessel route from Windmill Point Lighthouse at Lake St. Clair to Detroit River Lighthouse at Lake Erie, is about 31 miles. The project for the improvement of this river contemplates chan- nels 22 feet deep at low water datum, with 450 feet minimum width for downbound vessels, and 21 feet depth, with 600 feet minimum width for upbound vessels. These depths and widths have been secured, with the exception of downbound Livingstone Channel, which has 300 feet minimum width for about 4 miles length. The character of commerce using this river is similar to that for St. Marys River and its amount is about 7 per cent greater. WYANDOTTE, MICH. The city of Wyandotte, with a population of about 12,000, is located on the westerly side of the Detroit River and about 6 miles below the southerly limits of the city of Detroit. The principal industries are the Michigan Alkali Works, Detroit Shipbuilding Co., and the Wyandotte Cement Co., and they maintain private ãº. A large percentage of the raw material used by these industries, such as coal, stone, and clinkers is shipped in the larger sized freighters plying on the Great Lakes, and the yearly traffic amounts to about º tons. The wharves are considered suitable for existing traffic. Private spur lines connecting the water terminals with the Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad and the Michigan Central Railroad have been constructed. There is no direct interchange of traffic between rail and water, but nearly all finished products are shipped by rail. The terminals are reached by adequate improved highways. It is believed that a public terminal is not needed. DETROIT, MICH. The city of Detroit, with about 1,000,000 population, is located on the Michigan shore of the Detroit River, which, with St. Clair River and Lake St. Clair, forms the deep-water route between Lakes Huron and Erie. Through this waterway pass all vessels engaged in the exchange of raw materials and finished products between the ports of Lakes Huron, Michigan, Superior, and Erie, thus serving by means of canal, or rail transshipment, an extensive area of Middle and Eastern States. The project dimēnsions of the improved channels connecting waters of the Great Lakes are 21 feet minimum depth at low-water datum, and 600 feet minimum width where all traffic takes the same channel. A 300-foot minimum width obtains where upbound and downbound traffic are separated. 1772 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Confronting Detroit, and for several miles above and below its limits, the river is about one-half mile in width with natural mid- channel depths varying from 35 to 40 feet. Thus no Federal im- provement of this portion of Detroit River has been necessary. Opposite the upper limits of the city is an island park, known as É. Isle, connected with the mainland by a temporary bridge, with draw span, which, upon the assumption of War Department approval, the city proposes to replace by a substantial masonry structure of fixed spans. No through navigation passes between Belle Isle and the Michigan shore. The water front of Detroit proper extends for some 12 miles along the right bank of the river. Less than half of this length has been provided with wharfage, a considerable portion of which is occupied by industries making but limited use of water facilities. Depths along this front are ample for existing commerce, being generally from 18 to 25 feet. No industrial plants are located opposite Belle Isle, and it is probable that but little commercial use will ever be made of wharfage in this locality, the logical field of expansion being on the flanks. Rouge River, which flows into Detroit River at the southwesterly limit of the city, has been improved by the Federal Government for the service of industries located along its banks, thus extending the city water front by about 4 miles. The exist- ing project for Rouge River provides for 21 feet, but at present this depth is available only near the mouth, depths elsewhere in the lower 3 miles of the stream being from 10 to 17 feet. Generally, Detroit's water-front improvements are in no respect unusual or noteworthy. Wharves are mainly of the ordinary wooden pile, sheet-faced construction, although about 5,800 linear feet have concrete superstructure. Warehouses are of the usual mill type in wood, steel, concrete, or brick. There is practically no public ad- ministration of the port of Detroit, except as a matter of police, and there are no port charges. The municipality controls º 1,000 feet of river ſº on which wharves have been constructed for the receipt of coal for municipal use, but which are not open to the public for general freight business; an additional length of about 1,200 feet in municipal ownership is proposed by local authorities for fºrment as a public terminal, to be utilized in handling package reight. Throughout its length, Detroit's water front is accessible to well- paved streets, with occasional stretches of dirt roads in fair condition. Transfer thereon, however, by dray or motor truck of material to or from vessels is time consuming and expensive, and such transfer is avoided where alternative procedure is possible. Of the 12.miles of front on the Detroit River, about 20,000 feet are occupied by improved wharves, while about 16,000 feet are found on the Rouge River. An important though not a large part of the Detroit River frontage is owned by railroad companies, of which but meager use has been made since the railroads were required by law in 1916 to dispose of their vessel properties. The principal holdings are those of the Michigan Central and Wabash lines, extend- ing from Third to abreast of Nineteenth Street, a length of approxi- mately 8,000 feet. In 1916 the Michigan Central commenced the reconstruction of its docks from Third Street west and the extension WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1773 of track connections thereon, but the project has not been completed, due, it is stated, to lack of authority and funds under Federal rail- road administration. - Wharves are privately owned, each serving the individual industry concerned and not open to public use. The wharves of the local steamship lines are commodious and suitable for the transfer of miscellaneous freight. No wharves are provided with modern freight-handling appliances, except a few serving industrial plants equipped with locomotive cranes, principally for handling coal and building materials. The only terminal worthy of special mention is that of the Detroit Iron & Steel Co., at the mouth of Rouge River, where the largest ore vessels are unloaded by two Brown and two Webster-Kemp & Lane hoists, electrically operated. Particular description of these machines is thought to be unnecessary, since similar devices of greater capacity and efficiency are known to be in use at ore-receiving ports on Lake Erie. Extensive wharves at the upper limit of the proposed improvement in Rouge River are in process of construction by Henry Ford & Son, to be equipped with unloading machinery of the best types for ore and coal handling. These works are not yet finished and will not be accessible to deep- draft vessels until completion of the authorized Rouge River project. Detroit is an active industrial center of prime importance, but its geographical location is such that while there passes its doors an immense lake commerce, consisting mainly of iron and copper ores, lumber, and grain going south, and coal and manufactured products oing north, its receipt of bulk materials and its distribution of finished products are provided for mainly by rail. During the past four years the annual through traffic on Detroit River has varied from 80,000,000 to 100,000,000 tons, of an estimated value in excess of $1,000,000,000. Detroit's annual receipts and shipments by water, however, are estimated not to exceed 2,500,000 tons, mainly incoming ore, coal, lumber, chemical rock, and sand and gravel, of which about 2,000,000 tons pertain to Rouge River. But a com- paratively small amount of coal is concerned, by far the greater pro- ortion of this commodity arriving direct from the mines by rail. oth the through and local commerce are handled by lake boats of all classes, though mainly by vessels of 400 to 600 feet length and 19 to 21 feet draft, carrying raw materials in single cargoes of from 7,000 to 14,000 tons, consigned direct to manufacturer's terminal. The Board of Commerce reports Detroit's annual freight business by rail to be about 22,000,000 tons. Outgoing freight by water is confined to manufactured products of an annual total not in excess of 150,000 tons, while shipments by rail are estimated at 7,000,000 tons of practically universal distri- bution. These manufactured products embrace a great variety of metal parts, appliances, and devices, chemical materials, automobiles and accessories, motor trucks, and tractors. The necessity for ; preparation of many of these commodities, the geographical readth of their distribution, and the desirability of their quick receipt or delivery exert a controlling influence upon their shipment by rail. Accordingly, a large part of this tonnage would in no event seek existing water routes. Brick and structural materials in limited quantities are produced for local use and short rail consign- Iment. 1774 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Miscellaneous freight, largely package prepared, is carried entirely in passenger craft, the single noteworthy exception being that of a freight steamer engaged exclusively in transporting complete auto- mobiles to Buffalo; a second steamer is understood to be in design for this especial purpose. , Cost of handling by the several companies is ºwn. variety being such that a unit cost deduction is impracti- Cà, Olé. The passenger lines concerned own their respective terminals and absorb warehouse charges in their water rates. Warehouse accom- modation for present business is sufficient, that of the White Star Line of steamers, operating between Port Huron, Mich., and Toledo, Ohio, covering 5,000 square feet; that of the Ashley & Dustin steamer line, operating between Detroit, Mich., and Sandusky, Ohio, 5,600 square feet; while the Detroit & Cleveland Navigation Co., running to Lake Huron and Lake Erie ports, has warehouse space of 85,000 square feet. As is well known, Detroit's passenger service by water has been highly developed for many years. Practically all important lake ports are reached at reasonable charges by an ample number of safe, speedy, and commodious steamers, drawing from 10 to 16 feet of water. This business, to and from remote centers, accounts for more than 1,000,000 passengers per year; excursion traffic to near-by resorts is estimated at 3,000,000; while ferries to Canada and to Belle Tsle are stated to transport 6,500,000. The business standing and resources of the several passenger lines suggest their ability to fully meet any future needs of this class of service. The comparative lack of development of Detroit as a freight port is due mainly to several physical and economical conditions. The city is located on the line of water transportation between the ore regions accessible to Lake Superior and the coal mines reached from Lake Erie, and between the grain fields and forests of the Northwest and their eastern markets. The utilization of the greatest water mileage for these bulk products is secured by an exchange practically from end to end of the lake system, discharging downbound cargoes at Lake Erie harbors and there loading upbound cargoes of coal for Superior ports. Detroit is situated but a snort distance above Lake Erie. To unload downbound consignments at Detroit for other than local use and distribution would shorten water haul and increase rail haul for the return load by from 100 to 250 miles. This is economi- cally unfeasible, as is likewise the breaking of bulk en route. One result of this situation is that, notwithstanding the water proximity of Detroit to the coal ports of Lake Erie, practically all of her coal is received by rail direct from the mines. 6. of the largest coal con- sumers, the Detroit Edison Co., with its two power plants on the Detroit River, receives its coal exclusively by rail. An influential element of the matter, in this and similar cases, is the winter inter- ruption of water transportation and the difficulties and costs of carry. ing sufficient coal in storage over the closed season. Water transportation of finished or partially finished products can be utilized only by a transfer at Lake Erie ports and a second transfer at the Detroit wharf, except for commodities consigned direct to, or originating at, industries located on the water front. The saving in carriage by water of this class of freight, 100 to 250 miles, is insufficient to offset the cost of these necessary rehandlings and the switching and transfer charges of local belt lines connecting the river with interior warehouses and plants. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1775 The present water-borne commerce of Detroit and its future growth are limited only by controlling business economies as such appeal to the municipality and to the private investor. Because of its loca- tion on a broad and sheltered river the harbor is free from ordinary hazards or inconvenience. It would appear to be admirably situated physically for the selection from passing traffic of finished products and of such raw materials as can be reduced advantageously to required form for distribution by water or by rail within economical radius. Certain practical considerations, however, have militated against its greater development as a water-traffic center, though improvement of adverse influences is thought to be possible with materially better apportionment of freight receipts and shipments between lake and rail. * Prior to 1916 a number of vessels were operated by the railroads from Detroit in the transportation of package freight. When the railroads were required by the Panama Canal act to dispose of this class of property, it was transferred to the coast trade. Other vessels have not yet entered this field of operation. The railroads have retained their water-front holdings, which at the moment are unused for commercial purposes. The harbor of Detroit, its water front, and the railroads entering the city are shown in skeleton form upon the accompanying map, from which the general relation of rail and water to }. Imost important industrial plants may be seen. Trunk roads are the Michigan Central, New York Central, Grand Trunk, Wabash, Pere Marquette, Canadian Pacific, and Detroit, Toledo & Ironton. These connect with two steam belt lines which link together the principal commercial activities. These belt lines have a very important rela- tion to the development of Detroit's water commerce. They are understood to be controlled by the trunk roads entering the city. Freight by rail, to or from manufacturing plants or warehouses, may be delivered or received at the shipping door with the belt-line charge absorbed in the through-freight rate; but in the case of receipts or shipments by water this charge is superposed upon the water rate as an independent part of the cost of carriage, varying from $3.45 to $14 per car. In many cases this switching or transfer charge, together with the cost of handling from car to vessel, or the reverse, which is incumbent upon the water carrier, is prohibitive of water shipment. Again, there are generally no direct connections between wharves and belt lines, and such spurs as exist are so related to docking space as to make transfer inconvenient and costly. Avoid- ance of these costs and difficulties is possible only in the employment of drays or trucks between water front and plant, involving delay and disproportionate expense by reason of street-traffic congestion. In broad terms, the all-rail rate between Detroit and New York is from 2 to 3 cents per hundred in excess of the lake-and-rail rate, whereas the combined local rail rates, New York to Buffalo and Buffalo to Detroit, is 7 to 20 cents per hundred in excess of the through rail rate. Rail and water shipment could meet all-rail shipment except for the lack of provision for prompt, convenient, and economical delivery between water front and shipping door. Because of these prevailing conditions certain carload-lot consign- ments from New §. are routed 100 miles by water to another 1776 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. seaport, thence 700 miles to Detroit by rail, with a consumption of two weeks or more in transit, whereas they might preferably be directed 400 miles by rail and 250 miles by water over the shortest rail-water route with a consumption of perhaps five to six days, the freight rate being the same in both cases. Aside from inconveniences and their cost effects, the critical differential in favor of rail shipment appears to be the cost of transfer by belt-line service between industry and wharf. Assuming a belt- line charge of $14 on a 20,000-pound carload lot, rail-water consign- ment is handicapped at 7 cents per hundred pounds against all-rail shipment. The average water rate, Detroit to Buffalo, may be taken for purposes of this discussion at 35 cents per hundred pounds. The belt-line charge alone will be noted to equal 20 per cent of this Detroit–Buffalo water rate. The water rate includes the cost to the vessel owner of handling between car and vessel at both terminii. Until the local belt-line charges for water or water-rail shipment are put upon an equality with similar charges for all-rail shipment, and the cost and inconvenience of transfer between belt line and vessel are materially reduced, there is no possible way whereby miscellaneous freight shipment by water or by water-rail can com- pete with all-rail consignment. The fairness and justification of existing belt-line charges are not commented upon, since the several elements thereof are unknown; but it seems fundamental that the interstate carrier, in control of local property, should be legally required to place the service of that property on an even keel as between all-rail and water or water-rail consignments. Again, water shipment to and from Detroit will remain at a rela- tively low ebb until there is established some form of municipal or cooperative warehousing, in convenient and comprehensive relation to local rail and water, whereby the relatively small shipper may consign for water, or water-rail, transit on established schedule and with suitable and economical handling organizations at termini. Such a development would mean, as well, the commercial value and advantage of warehouse receipts immediately upon delivery of commodities. With respect to the comparative lack of Detroit's development as a water shipping center, it should be observed, on the other hand, that the j conditions of the Great Lakes, which basicly militate against the use of the water route, will continue to exercise an adverse influence as to commercial intercourse requiring well- recognized routing and continuous interchange throughout the year. Except for a few bulk items, such as coal, ore, and lumber, the receipt of which is efficiently provided for by the private interests using or dealing in these commodities, freight by water is so varied in character, and so comparatively limited in quantity that the installation of modern handling methods has not been deemed necessary or economical, the present plan of manual labor being adapted solely to the miscellaneous character of receipts and ship- ments. With the expansion of water consignments believed to be possible, however, this phase of the question would naturally and inevitably assume a different aspect. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1777 The first desideratum, looking to a more reasonable volume of business by water, is not so much any radical change in physical con- ditions or facilities, as an equalization between rail and water con- signments of belt line charges, whereby shippers by water may utilize the transfer and terminal facilities at hand, or which can be secured with few physical changes and relatively small expense. The city of Detroit is now actively interested in this question of terminal and transfer facilities, with the view to a more consistent use of available water routes. To develop the facts of the situation, a general survey of conditions, with expert advice upon present and future requirements, has been arranged for by the municipal au- thorities. The report to be anticipated should provide valuable * upon which to consider Federal interest in Detroit's commercial uture. The present examination indicates that Detroit's water facilities are utilized to the extent that is economically justifiable under existing conditions. A sufficiency of wharfage on equal terms is available, as is warehouse accommodation. Expansion of Detroit's lake commerce is thought to be dependent mainly upon a readjust- ment of physical and tariff arrangements, to º end of a more prompt, convenient, and economical transfer of commodities be- tween its water front and its manufacturing plants and warehouses. 164681—H.

WATER TERMINAT, AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. CLEVELAND, OHIO, DISTRICT. LIEUT. COL. R. R. RA YMOND, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. TOLEDO HARBOR, OHIO. Toledo Harbor, Ohio, comprises the lower 7 miles of Maumee River and the channel, about 9 miles long, through Maumee Bay to Lake Erie. It is at the westerly end of Lake Erie, 99 miles westerly from Cleveland, Ohio. The existing project provides for a channel 400 feet wide and 21 feet deep at low water datum from deep water in the lake through Maumee Bay and Maumee River to Fassett Street bridge, a distance of 15 miles; and for a stone revetted dike to form a foundation for range lights in Maumee Bay. The city of Toledo has expended about $300,000 in dredging and bulkhead construction, which has resulted in providing a lagoon near the mouth of the river suitable for the winter mooring of vessels, and in the maintenance of a channel through Swan Creek, which enters Maumee River within the limits of the Federal project. Local private interests have expended about $450,000 for dºing outside of the Government channel. The commerce of the harbor consists of iron ore, coal, lumber, grain, sand, gravel, and miscellaneous commodities. During the calendar year 1918, it included 2,606,927 long tons of iron ore received from the Lake Superior district, and 10,173,110 short tons of coal loaded for shipment to the upper lakes. Miscellaneous freight amounting to about 567,103 short tons, including grain, lumber, etc., was also handled. Toledo Harbor is the largest coal shipping port on the Great Lakes. The ore and coal trade has developed a distinctive type of bulk freight carrier suitable for the Great Lakes. These vessels have a maximum length of about 600 feet, with from 54 to 60 foot beam, and a carrying capacity ranging from 10,000 to 14,000 tons on a draft of 21 feet. #. type of vessel carries most of the ore and coal at all of the deep-draft harbors of the Cleveland district. Two large terminals for the handling of iron ore and three for coal are open to shippers of these commodities. About 10,000 feet of wharf equipped with three Hoover & Mason, three Brown Hoist, and two Hulett ore unloading machines, and four car-dumping machines, is devoted to the iron ore and coal business; two fuel wharves and three wharves with elevator facilities for handling grain do a public business; two pipe-line wharves for shipment of oil, four lumber wharves, and four fish docks are º owned and used. Two package freight terminals are owned or leased by companies operating regular lines of vessels for public use. Four docks at street ends are owned by the city of Toledo at which freight may be loaded or un- loaded free of charge. Considerable wharf frontage, owned by the railroads, is available for the transshipment of miscellaneous cargoes. 1799 1800 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Of 13 sand and gravel wharves, 4 are for public use. The Toledo Shipbuilding Co. has two large drydocks and facilities for building ...P repairing the largest lake vessels. There are also facilities for the repair of smaller boats. - The important terminals have rail connections. A belt line rail- road around the city affords connection with all of the many roads entering Toledo. - The city of Toledo has prescribed regulations governing vessels in the harbor.

The average cargo during the season of 1918, was 5,200 short tons of coal and 10,400 short tons of ore. Car ferries, which operate between Conneaut and Canadian ports on the north shore of Lake Erie, carried the miscel- laneous freight and some coal. - The terminals are located on both sides of the river from the Government jetties to a point about 3,000 feet above. About 2,400 feet of wharf, equipped with seven Hulett and four Brown hoist ore unloaders, is used for ore, and 1,000 feet of wharf, equipped with one steam car dump, is used for coal. About 1,700 feet of wharf, suitable for handling ore, is used for miscellaneous freight. A small slip is used for loading the car ferries. * The Bessemer & Lake Erie Railroad Co. contemplates building a new iron ore terminal along the west side of the river and in the outer harbor. This will provide an additional length of about 3,800 feet of wharf and is expected to meet the prospective needs of commerce. There are no port charges nor city regulations governing navigation. All the terminals are controlled by private interests. The greater F. of the wharf frontage is owned i. the Pittsburgh & Conneaut ock Co., a subsidiary of the United States Steel Corporation. Unim- proved lake frontage of 2,000 feet in the outer harbor is owned by the city of Conneaut. All the terminals are open to shippers of the commodity handled at the terminal on a tonnage charge basis. Ore is unloaded at 16 cents per long ton, hold of vessel to car, and 26 cents from hold to storage wharf. Cargo coal is loaded for 6 cents per short ton and fuel coal for 8 cents. The available navigation facilities are utilized and general interest is shown in the improvement of terminal facilities. All the wharves have direct rail connection with the Bessemer & Lake Erie Railroad, and practically all the freight is for through shipment and is inter- changed between rail and water. The wharves are equipped with modern machinery for handling iron ore and coal. Facilities exist for coaling vessels, and there is available storage space for iron ore. There are no facilities for repairing vessels at this port but a shipyard and dry docks are available at Ashtabula Harbor, 15 miles west. There is a turning basin in the river about 3,000 feet upstream from the outer ends of the piers. There are no warehouses at this port. The Hulett ore unloadèr used at this port is considered one of the most efficient types. It consists of a pair of girders supported upon towers which carry the girders high enough to provide locomotive clearance. The girders support a trolley carrying a walking beam from which depends the bucket leg, at the lower end of which the bucket is attached. In operating, the bucket is lowered into the hold of the vessel for the ore and is then raised and discharged into a con- veyor car which travels between the girders. After being weighed, the ore is delivered to cars on either of the four tracks or to the con- Crete trough in the rear for temporary storage. The entire machine is arranged to travel along the wharf so as to reach all the hatches without shifting the vessel. The operator is stationed in the bucket leg directly over the bucket and from this point directs the opening and closing of the bucket, rotating the bucket leg, hoisting and trolleying. Ore is distributed over the storage area from the concrete 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—114 1810 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. trough by an ore bridge carrying a bucket. Other types of unloaders consist of a bridge upon which a bucket travels, controlled by ropes. The modern car dumper, such as is used for loading coal at this port, elevates the jº car and turns it over sidewise at sufficient height to allow the coal to run into the vessel through hoppers and chutes. This port is considered particularly efficient in handling ore, having a record of unloading 10,636 long tons in 2 hours and 52 minutes. The terminal facilities are regarded as adequate for the present needs of commerce and additions are under consideration to meet future requirements. : WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER, FACILITIES. 7 TOLEDO HARBOR, OHIO.

The total freight traffic was 4,380,516 short tons, of which iron ore constituted 46 per cent; coal, 36 per cent; sand, 7 per cent; pulpwood, 3 per cent; wheat, 3 per cent; feed, gravel, copper, and miscellaneous, 3 per cent; and flour, 2 per cent. The total value of receipts and ship- ments was $56,696,518. The different classes of freight are carried in vessels of the following drafts: Coal, 14 to 20 feet; iron ore, 18 to 20 feet; pulpwood, 14 to 17 feet; grain, 15 to 19 feet; lumber and package freight, 15 to 18 feet. Iron-ore cargoes ranged from 4,000 to 11,000 gross tons; and hard- coal cargoes from 3,000 to 10,000 short tons. The largest wheat cargo received was 450,000 bushels (13,500 short tons), brought in by the bulk freighter William B. Schiller, whose dimensions are: Length, 580 feet; breadth, 58 feet; and depth, 32 feet. Soft coal is shipped both west, up the lakes, and east, through the Welland Canal, to Canadian ports. Shipments west are usually return cargoes, iron ore and grain being brought down and coal cargoes taken up, these ranging from 3,000 to 10,000 short tons. 1847 1848 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The maximum coal cargo passing the Welland Canal is 2,200 tons, carried by such vessels as the Keyvive, Keybell, Keynor, Keywest, and Easton, whose dimensions are 250 feet long and 424 feet beam. Much smaller vessels are also engaged in this freight traffic. From a record of 169 vessels carrying 203,206 tons of soft coal to Montreal, the aver- age cargo is found to be 1,202 tons. The amount of pulpwood received was 67,711 cords, or 135,422 short tons. Of this, 110,280 tons was received from Lake Superior ports and 25,142 tons from Montreal, Quebec, and the adjacent St. Law- rence River section. Terminal and transfer facilities.—Of the four railroads entering the city of Erie, the Pennsylvania Railroad (and allied interests) is the only one owning terminals along the harbor frontage. The tracks of this railroad occupy the water front at the base of Front Street and Lake Side Park, between Parade Street on the east and Cascade Street on the west, a distance of about 1% miles, connecting with all terminals, except the city public wharf, which has no railroad connections. The United States harbor line, for its greater length, is parallel with the city street system and about 1,800 feet beyond the shore line. All of the terminals are inside this harbor line except the city public. wharf, which is built out to the line. The extreme western terminal is the coal dock of the Youngstown & Ohio Coal Co., known as No. 2. Soft coal is loaded into vessels by means of a steam-operated Wellman-Seaver-Morgan car dumper, having an hourly capacity of 1,000 tons. Adjoining this terminal is an ore dock, known as No. 1, for un- loading ore from vessels into cars and storage, having 12 steam- operated Brown hoists on standard railroad tracks along its west face. Eight of these machines are in good condition, the other four are out of commission. Their capacity is 800 tons per hour. No ore was unloaded during the seasons of 1917 and 1918. Prior to these years steam shovels were used for loading iron ore from storage into railroad cars. Adjoining ore dock No. 1, is ore dock No. 4, where a small amount of ore is stored. It has no machinery at the present time. Along the shore line at the inner ends of the ore docks is a wharf occupied by an electrically-operated fueling apparatus, used for fueling small excursion steamers and fish and other tugs. Coal is dumped from railroad cars into a pit, and then elevated into a hopper by a chain bucket conveyor. East of the city public wharf are a large concrete elevator, a large package freight house, and a flour house; also a hard coal and pulp- wood dock, occupied by one steam-operated McMyler car dumper, with a capacity of 1,000 tons per hour, and 5 steam-operated cranes, On standard railroad tracks, with a lifting capacity of 3 tons each. immediately east of this hard coal dock is the Philadelphia & Erie Railroad ore dock, which contains an electrically-operated Hulett ore unloader with a 10-ton bucket, unloading ore from ves- sels into railroad cars. There is also an electrically-operated Meade- Morrison hoist, with cantilever arm, unloading from vessels into railroad cars and storage. Other terminals are fish, sand, and gravel, and the east, west, and State Street extension public wharves owned by the city of Erie, the details of which are given in the tabulations. * WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1849 It is believed that the existing terminals are adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. Port administration and charges.—The harbor of Erie, including the east and west slips of the canal basin, together with all public and private piers, wharves, and landings within the jurisdiction of the mayor and councils of the city of Erie, are under the supervision and direction of the harbor master of the port of Erie. n addition to the city regulations affecting navigation, there is an ordinance approved August 18, 1910, regulating the manner and time for use of a portion of the western half of the new State Street extension dock and the old dock from the east slip to the west slip. The tariff list, or schedule of charges in the Digest of 1913, Laws, Ordinances, and Rules of the city of Erie, Pa., is as follows: Fee of moorage, $50 per vessel, November 15 to May 1. Lumber, 15 cents per 1,000 feet b. m. Cement, 10 cents per ton. Coal, 25 cents perton. Merchandise, 2% cents per barrel or package. Articles not enumerated, in proportion to the foregoing rates. The city regulations affecting navigation, and the ordinance reg- ulating the use of the State Street extension dock, are published in . Bulletin No. 28, Survey of Northern and Northwestern Lakes, pages 40 –407. Public ownership or control of water front.—The water front of Erie Harbor is largely owned or controlled by the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. and the Pennsylvania Lines (allied companies); the eastern end by the Philadelphia & Erie Division of the first named company; and the western end by the Erie & Pittsburgh Division of the last named company. The railroad tracks skirt the shore of the harbor along the foot of the bluff overlooking the bay. Other privately owned water front is that of the H. F. Watson Paper Co., and several fish companies. City ownership comprises the public dock at the foot of State Street, and the extension into the harbor at the ends of all Erie streets with the possible exception of four. Through the water commissioners, the city also owns some 20 inshore water lots. There is also some water frontage under the control of the Pennsylvania Fish Commissioners. n a report made March 11, 1919, by the harbor improvement commission of Erie, the following statement is found: “Your com- mission found that there are no accurate plans of the harbor and water front in existence and they had no data from which to for- mulate any plans, or in fact any information to guide them in their work other than the general maps as made by the survey of Erie in 1836 and the coast survey charts made by the United States Covern- ment of a part of this district in 1903 and 1911.” n view of the foregoing, it is not possible to state in exact or specific terms the holdings along the harbor water front, and these can be given only in a general way as outlined. Interest shown in terminal improvement.—This is shown by the building of the existing coal and iron ore terminals, and by the im- mediate building of a modern concrete grain elevator, after the 1850 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. destruction of the old wooden one by fire; also by the building of the public dock at the foot of State Street at a cost of $150,000. Ffforts made to utilize navigation facilities.— n general, the vessels plying this harbor are engaged in lake transportation also at other ports, and owing to the available depth of water are able to load to the maximum draft, which is between 20 and 21 feet. The excep- tion are the vessels navigating the Welland and St. Lawrence River Canals and Lake Ontario, whose draft is restricted to 14 feet. Railroad and water connections.—All the private water terminals have railroad connections, the tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad and the PennsylvaniaLines along the water front serving as a belt line, by which all railroads entering the city of Erie can be reached. A number of terminals can also be reached by improved city streets. General efficiency of the port.—Being the terminus of two important divisions of the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Pennsylvania Lines, as well as of the Bessemer & Lake Erie Raihroad, direct rail com- munication is had by the first-named railroad with Philádelphia and the East and by the two latter with Pittsburgh and the South and West. The soft and hard coal docks are both provided with car dumpers, by which coal can be loaded at the rate of 1,000 tons per hour, and iron ore unloaded at the same rate. On June 11, 1919, the package freighter Delaware of the Great Lakes Transit Corporation arrived at the old Anchor Line terminal, Pennsylvania, with a cargo of 4,600 tons of flour. Unloading began at 3 p.m. on this date and was completed at 5 p.m. the next day, June 12. Twelve hours were occupied in unloading the vessel at the rate of 400 tons per hour. Hand trucks and hoists were used, the flour being packed in cloth sacks or bags weighing from 25 to 140 pounds each. For the return voyage to Duluth, a small cargo of merchandise was taken on. For the unloading of grain into the only elevator and its transfer to cars, the same methods are in vogue as at Buffalo, and the same promptitude. Coaling, storage, and repair facilities.—The fueling of the larger vessels is done at the docks at which coal is taken on, the same loading plant being used. The fueling of tugs and small passenger craft is done by a Muir– Snow electric conveyor on Dock No. 3 of the Pittsburgh & Erie Coal Co., at the west end of the harbor. This machine has a load- ing capacity of 200 tons per hour, a 50-ton railroad car being un- loaded in 15 minutes and the fuel transferred to vessel. There is no coal storage. With no vessel at the dock, the coal is held in rail- road cars until vessels are docked. This procedure obtains at the soft-coal dock at the west end of the harbor as well as at the soft and hard coal dock at the east end. * Iron ore is held for storage on the three ore docks. The iron ore stored on ore dock No. 4 at the west end, was unloaded 20 years or more ago, but can not be used on account of the large size of the ore fragments, very few blast furnaces possessing machinery for reduc- tion purposes. In addition there are two large areas in which iron ore is held for storage after being dumped from two high trestles connecting with the Erie & Pittsburgh Division, Pennsylvania Lines. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1851 Although there is no shipbuilding yard at Erie, during the winter of 1918–19, 12 steel barges were built by the Dravo Contracting Co., of Pittsburgh, Pa., for the United States Railroad Adminis- tration for use on the New York State Barge Canal, ore dock No. 4, at the foot of Plum Street, being used for a building site. The vessels were of the standardized type, the steel being fabricated at various bridge shops and shipped to Erie, there assembled, and the finished vessels launched. The Paasch brothers have a shipyard on the east canal basin, ad- joining State Street, where small vessels such as tugs are built and repair work done. They also have a floating dock suitable for small vessels. Suggested betterments.-Owing to the general efficiency of existing terminals no betterments are suggested. DUNKIRK HARBOR, N. Y. Description.—This is a breakwater-protected harbor basin 2,400 feet long from east to west and 1,000 feet wide, by lake 36 miles west of Buffalo, N. Y., and 44 miles east of Erie, Pa. It lies in an indentation of the south shore of Lake Erie, between Point Gratiot on the west and Battery Point on the east, the distance between these points being 9,600 feet and the maximum breadth of the indentation 3,600 feet. See United States Lake Survey Chart No. 1 (index No. 31), with inset of Dunkirk. The city of Dunkirk has a population of about 20,000 and is largely a manufacturing city, the Brooks plant of the American Locomotive Works being located here. Existing project of improvement.—This provides for a protected entrance channel of a depth suitable for vessels of 16 feet draft; for a harbor basin 2,400 feet long and 1,000 feet wide; and for the re- moval of the rock reef bordering the inner part of the entrance channel to a depth of 16 feet, low water datum, General character and extent of the commerce and size and type of vessels used, etc.—The receipts for the calendar year 1918 were 1,300 tons of fish caught in Lake Erie off Dunkirk and valued at $208,000. They were carried in vessels of 6–8 feet draft, with an average net registered tonnage of 25. There were no shipments. Terminal and transfer facilities.—There are three wharves in the harbor, two of which are used by fish tugs and are too dilapidated for commercial purposes. The Central Avenue wharf, owned by the city of Dunkirk, is a new timber-concrete earth-filled structure designed for commercial use by Lake vessels. ...The details of these wharves are given in the tabulations. It is believed that the exist- ing terminals are adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. Port administration and charges.—The administration of the port is under the immediate jurisdiction of the common council of the city of Tunkirk, which regulates only the use of the public dock at the foot of Central Avenue. The Ordinance governing the rental and use of the dock and providing for permits and collection of fees was passed 1852 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

Public (wnership or cºntrºl ºf water front.—This is limited to the Central Avenue public dock, whose outer end extends to the south line of the dredged harbor basin, and to parts of Front Avenue and to street ends, none of which are adjacent to deep water. Dunkirk was the original western terminus of the present Erie Railroad, which for a time operated wharves at the foot of Washington and Central Avenues. The latter has been rebuilt by the city of Dunkirk as a public dock and has rail connections with the Erie Railroad, and through this with other railroads entering the city. Interest shºwn in terminal improvement.—To stimulate commerce, the public dock was built, and for a number of years the only freight traffic has been the receipt of fish caught in Lake Erie. The naviga- tion facilities are available for vessels of 16 feet draft, comprising excursion boats and lumber and small coal carriers. For the latter class of carriers there are no loading facilities. BUFFALO HARBOR, N. Y. Description.—Buffalo Harbor is at the eastern end of Lake Erie and consists of an outer harbor in the lake formed by a breakwater system generally parallel to, and 3,000 feet from the shore, and an inner river, canal, and basin harbor. See United States Lake Survey Chart, Buffalo Harbor (index No. 314). *A The outer harbor, from the north entrance to the south entrance, is 3% miles long and comprises an area of about 715 acres, of which 505 acres have a depth of water of 17 to 28 feet, and the remainder, along the harbor line, a depth of 10 to 17 feet. There is an established United States harbor line 1,600 feet from and parallel to the break- WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1853 water. The outer harbor and the Buffalo River entrance between the north and south piers are maintained by the United States. The inner harbor embraces—First, the 43 miles of Buffalo River from the head of the entrance channel to the Ferguson Steel & Iron Co.'s shipbuilding plant, which are maintained by the city of Buffalo, with a channel width averaging 200 feet, and a depth generally 20 to 21 feet; second, the City Ship Canal, an artificial waterway beginning at the head of the Buffalo River entrance channel and extending southeasterly in the general direction of Buffalo River and 200 to 1,000 feet therefrom, of which the northerly 1% miles is a public waterway constructed and maintained by the City of Buffalo, and the remaining mile, to the southerly end, was constructed and is maintained by the Lehigh Valley and Buffalo Creek Railroads; third, the Lehigh Valley basins (Tifft Farm), at the southerly ex- tremity of the ship canal and communicating therewith, which were constructed and are maintained by the Lehigh Valley Railroad; and fourth, the Erie and Ohio Basins, and portions of the original Erie Canal and the communicating slips, which are under the jurisdiction of the State of New York, being part of the canal system usually called the Barge Canal. - - Eristing project of improvement.—This provides for an outer harbor about 4% miles long and 1,600 feet wide, formed by a breakwater system approximately parallel to the shore from Stony Point to the head of the Niagara River, a total length of about 23,604 feet; two entrance channels therein, the one at the north end 21 feet deep and 1,300 feet wide, and the one at the south end 550 feet wide with a natural depth of 21 to 26 feet, and a gap about in the center with a natural depth of about 20 feet and about 150 feet wide for water circulation; for depths of 23 feet in Area C at the north entrance and 21 feet in Areas A, B, D, F, and G in the outer harbor; for an entrance channel to the inner harbor (Buffalo River and City Ship Canal) 21 feet deep and 180 to 250 feet wide, enlarged by the removal of the Watson elevator site to a depth of 21 feet; for a south pier of timber- crib type, 1,760 feet long at the entrance to the inner harbor, and for a sand-catch pier, 1,148 feet long, in the outer harbor about opposite the middle gap. The project has been completed except for the deepening of areas F and G in the outer harbor and the tri- angular area at the junction of the Buffalo River entrance channel and Black Rock Channel. All depths are referred to low water datum for Iake Erie. - - General character and extent of the commerce.—The commerce of Buffalo Harbor for the calendar year 1918 was as follows: Vessels arrived and departed 5,556, of which 5,337 steam and 70 sailing vessels and barges were American, and 146 steam and 3 sailing vessels and barges were foreign. The net registered tonnage was 16,868,595 and the number of passengers carried 1,484,977. The total commerce amounted to 18,544,063 short tons, valued at $496,709,974, of which 14,651,069 tons, valued at $414,041,664, was received and 3,892,994 tons, valued at $82,668,310, was shipped. Erie Canal commerce, not included in the foregoing, was 619,196 short tons, valued at $14,154,242 in 1918. The principal receipts in the calendar year 1918, in the order of their value, consisted of grain, flour and feed, copper, iron ore, mer- chandise, automobiles, lumber and shingles, limestone and pig iron. 1854 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The greatest single item was wheat, which amounted to 66,472,192 bushels (1,994,166 tons), valued at $151,556,598, due largely to the high price per bushel, viz: $2.28. In point of tonnage iron ore was the largest item, forming 9,070,608 short tons, valued at $41,303,661. The main shipments, in the order of their value, were merchandise and hard coal, the former amounting to $46,428,000 and the latter to $26,421,802, the respective tonnages being 232,140 and 3,594,803. Of the total tonnage, iron ore constituted 49 per cent, coal 20 per cent, grain 15 per cent, limestone 7 per cent, and miscellaneous 9 per Cent. - Size and type of vessels.—The following tabulation, taken from the statistical report of lake commerce at the Sault Ste. Marie Canals, shows the various classes of lake freighters engaged in lake trans- portation during the season of 1918: Tons in maximum cargo between— * | 1 | 1,000 2,000 || 3,000 || 4,000 || 5,000 | 6,000 || 7,000 | 8,000 | 10,000 | 12,000 | 14,000 |Total. and and and and and and and and and and and and 1,000 2,000 || 3,000 || 4,000 5,000 | 6,000 || 7,000 | 8,000 | 10,000 | 12,000 || 14,000 over. i | NUMBER OF STEAMERS. 1918. . 186 39 18 46 9 15 44 47 94 81 62 25 616 NUMBER OF SAILING AND TJNRIGGED CRAFT. 1918. 70 27 2 1 6 2 16 3 6 . 133 STEAMERS, SAILING AND UNRIGGED CRAFT COMBINED. ins. - || 206 66 20 47 15 17 60 50 100 81 62 25 749 VESSEL DIMENSIONS.

The loaded draft of this class of vessels is from 18 to 19 feet. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1855 The passenger boats of the Cleveland & Buffalo Transit Co. and the Detroit & Cleveland Navigation Co. also carry merchandise. The largest vessel operated is the Seeandbee, which has a length of 500 feet, beam of hull 58 feet, and is 98 feet over the guards. The light draft forward is 12 feet and aft 14 feet 9 inches, and the loaded draft is 16 feet 2 inches. Facilities.—The breakwater system has created an outer harbor about 3% miles long and 1,600 feet wide outside of the established United States harbor line, with a depth in the channel way of 21 feet and over at low water datum. The frontage along the outer harbor line controlled by the various railroads and property holders, and the percentage of each, are shown by the following table: - Name of Owner. Feet. Pºnt.

() The immediate result of the completion of the Stony Point break- water extension was the building of important terminals at the southerly end of the outer harbor, consisting of the Lackawanna Steel Co.'s canal, 3,800 feet long and 21 feet deep, with ore docks on the east and coke ovens on the west side, and the Union Canal, 2,000 feet long and 21 feet deep, with ore and limestone docks of the Pennsyl- vania Railroad Co. on the north and ore docks of the Rogers-Brown Iron Co. and limestone docks of the Lackawanna Steel Co. on the south side. In addition to the terminals mentioned, there are three others. One, the shipbuilding plant of the Buffalo Marine Construction Cor- poration, which has physical connection with the Pennsylvania Rail- road; and another, the unfinished pier of the Buffalo Harbor Land Co. (J. Talman Budd). Both are located immediately behind the harbor line and near its northern end. The third terminal is that of the Pennsylvania Railroad at the southern end of the harbor line, adjoin- ing the Union Canal. An area having a harbor line frontage of about 500 feet is now being filled in, and provision is being made for a slip 200 feet wide and 900 feet long, to be reached by a spur line undergrade crossing of the Hamburg Turnpike, now nearly completed. The outer harbor is also largely used for, anchorage and mooring. The winter storage grain fleet of 1918–19 consisted of 117 vessels containing 39,214,402 bushels of grain, of which over 50 per cent was wheat. This is the largest fleet of vessels containing grain for winter storage ever assembled anywhere. Of the total 58 vessels. were anchored in the outer harbor and contained about 20,000,000 bushels of grain.

Owing to the unprotected lake front, the water terminals naturally grew up first along the Buffalo River and later along the City Ship Some of the unloaded The grain elevators comprise the greatest number of terminals, and these handle the largest freight tonnage, amounting in value to about one-half of Buffalo's water COIOIOleI*Ce. Grain terminals.--Originally the grain elevators were built wholly of wood, boards and plank laid flat and nailed forming the bins. This type has almost entirely disappeared, a large number having burned. The remaining ones are the Exchange, Evans, Marine, and Export. Great Eastern, Electric, Dakota, and Mutual. The next type was the steel tank, such as the Monarch, Then followed the reinforced concrete type, such as the Kellogg, Wheeler, American Malting Co., Dellwood, Superior, Concrete, Central, Connecting Ter- minal, and Frontier elevators. make rail, team, and canal deliveries.

In addition to the terminals enumerated, there are 3 passenger, 4 limestone, 6 sand and gravel, 1 gypsum products, 5 lumber, and 5 public wharves. Of the public jº. 3 are owned by the city of Buffalo and 2 by the State of New York. The details of these terminals are given on the tabulations. Adequacy of the terminals.--All of the Buffalo water terminals are located in the inner harbor with the exception of the three ore docks on the Lackawanna and Union Canals, which canals connect with the outer harbor at its southern end. The available water frontage of the inner harbor has been largely improved and the deepening of the Buffalo River to the upper Lackawanna Railroad bridge now in progress will provide additional facilities. Gradually the water frontage behind the harbor line in the outer harbor is being made available. Upon the completion of the undergrade crossings on the line of the Hamburg Turnpike tracks will be laid by the Pennsylvania and Lehigh Valley Railroads to reach this outside water frontage, which to some extent has already been improved by the Pennsylvania WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1859 Railroad Co., as well as by the Buffalo Harbor Land Co. This result is due to the consummation of the so-called Sea Wall Strip and Hamburg Turnpike agreement, between the City of Buffalo and the various railroads entering the city. The completion of the Erie and Ohio Basin terminals of the New York State Barge Canal will also afford increased facilities. The 17 grain elevators (the Concrete-Central being considered one), which have both water and rail connections and a storage capacity of 25,000,000 bushels, are considered ample to handle the grain received. During October, 1917, the Buffalo elevators un- loaded 19,440,000 bushels of grain. In October, 1916, the #". unloaded was 16,130,000 bushels. There were 388,000 bushels of wheat taken out of the steamer Michigan by the Concrete-Central elevator in seven hours and seven minutes, using three elevator legs averaging 55,000 bushels an hour. At the Ashtabula and Buffalo dock, iron ore is unloaded at the rate of 800 to 1,000 tons per hour by three electrically operated Brown hoist machines. Hard coal is loaded at the Lacka- wanna Railroad dock at the rate of about 1,000 tons an hour, a car dumper being used. The Erie and the Philadelphia & Reading railroad companies, which now operate trestles, expect to replace these with modern car dumpers. The tonnage of merchandise (package freight) received and shipped is small as compared with bulk freight, grain, Ore and coal; but its value is large, owing to the high unit rate per ton. In loading and unloading this class of freight simple machinery and hand trucks are generally used. All terminals have connections, either direct or by connectin belt line, with the 11 trunk-line railroads serving the locality, and others having trackage rights for entering Buffalo. Owing to that clause in the Panama Canal act which forbids railways from operating vessel lines, the Interstate Commerce Com- mission ordered the abandonment of such water transportation lines in 1916. Exception to the order was taken by the Lehigh Valley Transportation Co. and it continued in operation. Other lines, however, acquiesced and a new transportation line was then estab- lished—the Great Lakes Transit Corporation, which took over the vessels of the abandoned lines. This new corporation owns no terminal of its own, but loads and unloads package freight at the freight house of the New York Central Railroad, on the right bank of the Buffalo River above the Michigan Street Bridge. During the season of 1918, 5,296 tons of flour were unloaded at the Coit Slip freight house, Erie Basin, also known as the River Street flour house. In addition, 10 cargoes, aggregating 23,082 tons, were handled at the Erie Railroad flour freight house, on the Buffalo River adjoining that of the New York Central Railroad. The Lehigh Valley Transportation Co. uses its east and west bound freight houses on the City Ship Canal for unloading and loading freight. # is believed that the existing terminals are adequate to meet the present needs and that the contemplated improvements will meet the expected requirements of commerce: Port administration.—The improvement and administration of all parts of the harbor, including its outer and inner portions, the navi- gable waters of the city of Buffalo, and the Niagara River as far \ 1860 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. north as the city line at O'Neil Street, are vested in the department of public works under an ordinance adopted by the city on May 15, 1918. This ordinance provides for the necessary corps of harbor masters and bridge operators and tenders, and prescribes their duties. It is published in full in Bulletin No. 28, Survey of Northern and Northwestern Lakes, pages 390–394. Port charges.—There are none. Vessels have free access to public, private, industrial, and railroad wharves. Two lake transportation companies own their own terminals and another leases one. Public ontnership or control of water fromf.—The total frontage along the outer harbor line between the mouth of Buffalo River and the Union Canal at the south end of the outer harbor is 18,550 feet. Of this, 14,800 feet is owned by railroad companies and industrial corporations, and 3,750 feet is owned by the United States and city of Buffalo. The water frontage of the inner harbor is held mainly by railroad companies and industrial corporations, the exception being the Erie and Ohio Basins, along which the State of New York owns or con- trols a relatively small frontage. The only frontage owned by the city of Buffalo includes the street ends, an island bounded by Buffalo River and the City Ship Canal, and three fire-tug sites. Other water front owned or controlled by the city of Buffalo is along the Black Rock Canal and Niagara River, described later. Interest shown in terminal improvement.—This was evidenced by the construction of the immense plant of the Lackawanna Steel Co., the Rogers-Brown Iron Co.'s furnaces, and the ore transfer terminal of the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. at South Buffalo, soon after the completion of the breakwater extension to Stony Point; also by the building within the past few years of a number of grain elevators with modern equipment, and the rebuilding of two hard-coal loading plants, as well as by the reconstruction, with improved facilities, of the Erie and Ohio Basins for use of the New York State Barge Canal. Reference to the Erie Basin is on pages 389–390 and to the Ohio Basin on pages 387–388 of Bulletin No. 28, Survey of Northern and Northwestern Lakes. For obvious reasons, the original and many of the existing terminals were built in the inner harbor, whose waterways afforded better shelter, connections with railroad, and access to the city proper. To reach the isolated section between the City Ship Canal, and the Lake Erie water front the Buffalo Creek Railroad was built. This is a belt line, owned jointly by the Erie and Lehigh Valley Railroads, and connecting with all trunk line railroads entering Buffalo. Only recently have efforts been made to utilize the water front immediately behind the harbor line of the outer harbor. The delay was largely attributable to physical conditions, as well as to legal difficulties and complications, which have now been removed. Efforts made to utilize navigation facilities.—The city of Buffalo, being at the foot of Lake Erie, is practically the eastern terminus of the water transportation of the &. Lakes, so far as deep-draft vessels are concerned. Every improvement of navigation facilities, whether the building of breakwaters to afford shelter and anchorage or the deepening of outer and inner channels by dredging and rock removal, has been followed by a corresponding increase in size and load draft of vessels. The limits reached in 1918 are shown under WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACTLITIES. 1861 the foregoing heading “Size and type of vessels.” The records of the Lake ãº. Association indicate that in 1918 the lake fleet of bulk-freight vessels consisted of about 530 vessels, of a cargo capacity of about 3,900,000 short tons, as compared with about the same number of vessels, of a cargo capacity of about 2,200,000 short tons, in 1905, the increased cargo capacity being based upon deeper load draft as well as upon great size of vessels. A large per- centage of the bulk freighters ply in and out of Buffalo Harbor, including the largest vessels noted in the paragraph “Size and type of vessels.” •. Railroad and water connections.—With the exception of those wharves used for summer passenger traffic and a few miscellaneous ones, all the important water terminals have railroad connections and are generally accessible via improved streets. - General efficiency of the port.—Buffalo ranks as one of the world's largest ports. Ever since it came into existence it has preserved its present natural advantages. These have been developed by the con- struction of railroads and harbor and canal facilities and the estab- lishment of water transportation lines. During 1918, 5,556 vessels arrived and departed, an average of nearly 30 per day for the season of navigation. The total tonnage carried was 18,544,063 tons. Prior to the war, the freight rate on wheat from the head of the lakes was as low as 1 cent a bushel, equivalent to 33% cents per ton. Owing to abnormal conditions, the rate has been much higher for several years. The efficiency of the port is such that large grain cargoes can be unloaded in 9 hours, and large ore cargoes in 15 hours; and large hard- coal cargoes of approximately 10,000 tons and over can be loaded in 10 hours. Package freight (flour) is unloaded at the rate of 400 tons per hour, while merchandise is loaded at the rate of 300 tons per hour. Coaling, storage, and repair facilities.—The fueling of vessels is done from floating craft and coal trestles. About 75 per cent is done by the fuel scow West Shore, a vessel especially built for this purpose which moves about the harbor from terminal to terminal under its own steam. It has a carrying capacity of about 1,000 tons, and is loaded and replenished by a special conveyer on the dock of the Ashtabula & Buffalo Dock Co., its owners. About 200,000 tons of soft coal for fuel is supplied to vessels annually by this contrivance. In addition, this company operates the Pittsburgh as an auxiliary fueling plant. This is a deck scow equipped with a revolving derrick, and is used only in cases of emergency. Another fueling scow is the Batavia, operated by the Lehigh Valley Railroad Co. This is a floating derrick carrying 50 i. buckets of coal of about 5 tons capacity each, which transfers the fuel while the vessels are takin on other cargo. About 40,000 tons of soft coal for fuel is handled annually by this scow. At two coal docks, vessels are fueled through the trestle pockets and chutes, about 40,000 tons being furnished annually by this method. +. * In connection with the early º of the Tifft Farm terminal of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Co., a large hard-coal storage was maintained for a number of years. The coal was unloaded from trestles and reloaded into cars in underground tunnels. Subse- 1862 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. quently, the plant was abandoned, the structures torn down, and the occupied area cleared. Other railroads maintained hard-coal storage in the suburbs of Buffalo, generally in immense wooden sheds with- out water connection. As hard coal is now supplied as fast as mined, storage at Buffalo has fallen into disuse. There are three shipyards located in the inner harbor on the Buffalo River, the Buffalo Dry Dock Co., the Ferguson Steel & Iron Co., shipbuilding department, and the B. L. Cowles shipyard; and one is located behind the harbor line in the outer harbor, the Buffalo Marine Construction Corporation. Two have extensive plants, and two do mainly repair work. The main dry dock is owned by the Buffalo Dry Dock Co., the details of which, together with others, are shown in the tabulation on page 388 of Bulletin No. 28, Survey of Norther and Northwestern Lakes. - Suggested betterments.-As the plant, equipment, and machinery for unloading grain and iron ore and for loading coal is of the most modern type, and the methods employed efficient, no betterments can be suggested. - - In the case of flour, package freight, and merchandise, the main vessel decks being on a level with the freighthouse floors, much of the eargo is unloaded by hand trucks for which no better substitutes have been found. When cargoes are handled through the hatches, derrick booms and tackle are largely used. In building the Erie Basin ter- minal of the New York State Barge Canal and making studies for machinery, consideration was given to the character of the ship- ments which might be expected to be made, in order that proper handling machinery might be provided. As this terminal is yet in progress of building, no definite plans have been issed by the State engineer. - Important terminal units.-The largest grain elevator in Buffalo is the Concrete-Central, a combination of two structures, which has a storage capacity of 4,376,500 bushels. . The original Concrete ele- vator, section A, was built in 1915, and section B was added later, giving a storage capacity of 1,957,100 bushels. In 1917, the Central elevator was built, comprising sections C, D, and E, with a storage capacity of 2,419,400 bushels. These elevators, being built end to end, are virtually one structure. They are located on the left or south bank of the Buffalo River, 3% miles above the mouth, between Farmers Point Turning Basin and the New York Central (West) Railroad bridge. The structures are of reinforced concrete and steel construction throughout, and are supported by about 20,000 wooden piles driven to bedrock, which ranges from 45 to 60 feet below water surface. They occupy part of a 35-acre tract, which has a river frontage of 3,200 feet on one side, and on the other side the car storage yards of the New York Central Railroad, with room for trackage for approximately 1,200 cars. The width of the elevators is 72 feet, and they have a total length of 960 feet. The height from the dock to the cupola roof is 187 feet. The lower story is level with the dock, and has a clearance height of 15 feet. The tops of the bins are 95 feet above this, and the top of the cupola is 77 feet above the top of the bins. In general arrange- ment, the structure consists of three rows of circular bins, 114 in number, each with a capacity of 26,000 bushels, 77 interstice bins, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1863 each with a capacity of 16,000 bushels, and 75 quarter bins, each with a capacity of 2,400 bushels. - The marine towers (legs) are supported by a solid concrete dock, resting upon piles driven to bedrock. These towers are movable along the entire river frontage of the elevator, and each one is a com- Fº elevating unit in itself, hº with garners and scales. he entire elevator is operated by separate electric motors using Niagara Falls power aggregating 2,320 horsepower. The Concrete-Central elevators extend over 1,200 feet along the water front, with water on three sides of them and railroad tracks on the fourth. They are adjacent to the newly created grain yard of the New York Central Railroad, which has been developed to the extent of trackage for 500 cars. The maximum development of this terminal will be for 1,200 cars. This yard includes five loop tracks, which will permit of extremely fast switching of cars. The coordina- tion of the rail facilities with the rapid loading power of the elevators will result in a terminal having the largest capacity for unloading and loading grain in the world. * The owners of the elevators state— That their construction was decided upon in response to the insistent demands of numerous managers of large fleets of vessels for quick dispatch of their ships. With the great increase in lake traffic demand is made that grain be unloaded as fast as iron ore. This is necessary in order to maintain minimum vessel grain rates. These re- quests have been supported by demands of large grain merchants and exporters for adequate storage room at Buffalo for the care of lake grain, and the requirements of Buffalo grain merchants for sufficient elevator capacity to properly care for the amount of all rail grain that is reasonable to come to Buffalo as a terminal market, which has been limited in the past by inadequate facilities. - The completion of the Concrete-Central elevators has fully met these requirements, and provides the means of fully developing Buffalo as a big grain market, both as a terminal market and a transfer port. º: statement below gives condensed information about these ele- Vators. • ‘ CAPACITIES AND EQUIPMENT. Four million five hundred thousand bushels working storage capacity; 200,000 bushels in 10 hours receiving capacity from cars; 400,000 bushels in 10 hours loading to vessels; 266 bins, capacity 2,500 bushels to 30,000 bushels; 10 loading spouts (to cars); 7 shipping legs, capacity 100,000 bushels per hour; 4 marine legs, capacity 25,000 bushels each per hour; 12 cars unloaded at one time; 5 working tracks; 80 cars placed for loading at one time; 500 car storage trackage in New York Central grain terminal yard adjacent to elevators; 1,500 feet of elevator and dock frontage on Buffalo River; 3.lake vessels can be unloaded at one time; 4 canal boats can be loaded at one time; 44 motors (ranging from 5 to 150 horsepower); 2,320 horsepower required to operate elevators; 7 hopper scales, capacity 120,000 pounds each; 4 hopper scales, capacity 24,000 pounds each; 1 hopper scale, capacity 60,000 pounds.

In connection with these elevators, in a separate building constructed of reinforced concrete and brick, is a complete hospital equipment for handling and conditioning Salvage grain; heating, hot, Sour, dirty or mixed grains. The equipment consists of 2 unit No. 8 Hess driers; 2 No. 11 Monitor Clippers; 1 No. 11 Warehouse Separator; 1 Northwestern Wheat-Oats Separator; 2 lofter legs; 1 jack leg; 2 125 horsepower boilers; 7 motors—ranging from 3 to 75 horsepower, aggregating 253 horsepower; 1 hopper scale, capacity 30,000 pounds. Railroad interchange: All railroads entering Buffalo from both East and West. 1864 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. THE DELAwarE, LACKAWANNA AND WESTERN RAILROAD Co. TERMINAL AT BUFFALO, N. Y. This terminal extends along the north bank of Buffalo River, from its mouth to Michigan Avenue, a distance of about 4,800 feet. It comprises, in the order named, a modern coal-handling plant, lake ; houses, and a passenger station. The coal-handling plant replaces the timber trestle built in 1887, portions of which, owing to decay, had to be renewed from time to time. It was located on the original north pier, which with the south pier, formed the Buffalo River entrance channel. This location was objectionable because vessels loading here occupied part of the channel to the detriment of navigation. When it became imperative, under the direction of the War Department, to build a new coal-handling plant, the old north pier was removed and a new dock built by the railroad company parallel to and 90 feet back of the old pier, on which the new plant was erected. The lake freight houses comprise first, the former Erie & Western Transportation Co. dock (Anchor Line, Pennsylvania Railroad), adjoin- ing the Evans Ship Canal and extending along the Buffalo River eastward a length of about 460 feet; and second, the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad Co. freight house adjoining the Commercial Slip of the Erie Canal and extending along the river front to Main Street, a distance of 850 feet. The passenger station and train shed occupies the river front between Main Street and Michigan Avenue, a distance of about 1,700 feet. Coal dock. —This has a total length of about 1,100 feet extending from the Erie Basin of the New York State Barge Canal to the Evans Ship Canal. The substructure consists of stone-filled timber Cribs sunk to bedrock in 21 feet of water (low water datum). On the cribs is a concrete retaining wall 8 feet high above water level. The area behind it is earth and stone back fill. The car dumper proper is midway of the dock or pier, and it is of the hopper car unloader type built by the Wellman-Seaver-Morgan Co., Cleveland, Ohio. It consists essentially of a rectangular frame- work supporting a rotating cradle in which the loaded railroad car is held while discharging. An automatic counterweight device clamps the car to the cradle, which is inverted by the revolving mechanism carrying the car with it. The top- of the cradle forms a chute for directing the coal as it flows out. Combined with the unloader is a terminal yard providing storage for 55 cars, and a load yard holding 36 cars, a total capacity of 127 Cal’S. The loaded cars are delivered to the unloader by a mule haulage mechanism. It has a guaranteed capacity of 30 cars per hour and is designed to handle cars of a in ºf of 52 feet over the bumpers, and a total weight of car and coal combined of 224,000 pounds. The machine is operated by steam furnished by two hand-fired cylindrical boilers of 200 horsepower each. - As a certain amount of the coal carried by the Lackawanna Rail- road is loaded at the mines into box cars, an unloader for this class of cars is also provided. The coal comes from the Scranton, Pa., an- thracite fields, and as the Great Lakes are not navigable during the WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1865 winter months, the coal movement through the dock is concentrated in the seven months from May to November. Lake freight houses.—Separafed from the coal dock by the Evans Ship Canal, and adjoining that canal as well as fronting on the Buffalo River, is the former Anchor Line freight house, an irregular shaped building about 460 feet long and 100 feet wide. It is now used for the receipt and shipment of automobiles. Previous to the dissolution of the Great Lakes transportation lines, on account of the Panama Canal act, it was used entirely by the Erie & Western Transportation Co., a subsidiary of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Next is the main freight terminal, which also fronts on the Buffalo River and consists of two houses. The one adjoining the Commercial Slip is 300 feet long and 110 feet wide, and the other is 460 feet long and 80 feet wide and leased to and used by the boats of the Detroit & Cleveland Transit Co. Only hand trucks are used for unloading and loading freight, which is all carried on the lower decks of vessels. Traffic destined for these freight houses is carried by high level tracks crossing Main Street overhead and descending to the lower level at Commercial Street. For use in emergencies, a surface track is provided across Main Street. Passenger terminal. —This comprises the area between the Buffalo River frontage and relocated Ohio Street, and between Main and Michigan Streets, generally 175 feet wide and 1,700 feet long. The passenger station is a 4-story steel frame structure with brick walls and has a Main Street frontage 106 feet long, extending back along the river 225 feet. It is a two-level stub-end station, with facilities for lake vessel traffic on the first or ground floor and with rail pas- senger facilities on the second floor. The terminal warehouse has a floor area of 112,000 square feet,' occupying the space under the passenger train shed. . Access to the warehouse by teams may be had from both Main and Ohio Streets. Tracks on the lower level provide the rail facilities. Complete wharf and mooring facilities are provided by a concrete dock which extends east from Main Street along Buffalo River. LACKAWANNA. STEEL CO. IRON ORE AND LIMESTONE TERMINAL. Iron ore and limestone are received by vessels at this company’s rivate slip or ship canal, which is 200 feet wide and extends 3,800 }. southward from the south harbor line of the Buffalo outer harbor into its property and parallel to and west of its blast furnace and ore dock. The dock wall is of concrete built upon timber cribs, and the ore storage floor proper, except for about 560 feet near the north end where soil conditions do not require it, consists of rein- forced concrete supported directly on wooden piles. The dock has an annual capacity for storing approximately 2,000,000 gross tons of iron ore and limestone. The unloading of iron ore and limestone from vessels is accomplished by five electrically operated Hulett automatic ore unloaders, built by the Wellman-Seaver-Morgan Co. of Cleveland, Ohio. They have a combined capacity of about 10,000 tons per 10 hours. Each machine has two parallel girders at right angles to the face of the dock mounted on moving trucks. On these girders a trolley or carriage travels back and forth, carrying a long pivoted walking beam. On the t 1866 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. front or water end of the walking beam is carried a vertical dependent leg to which the bucket is attached. The leg is always maintained in a vertical position. The operator who controls all the motions of the bucket, rides at the lower end of the leg directly above the bucket. By means of hoisting mechanism, the walking beam is made to oscillate up and down, carrying the bucket down into the hold of the boat and above the dock. The travel of the carriage back and forth on the girders carries the walking beam and the bucket out over the boat and back over the dock. e The contents of the bucket are discharged into a transfer car which is operated by cable on tracks provided for it on the inclined canti- lever extending to the rear of the unloader over the ore pile. This car automatically trips its load at any desired point in the length of the cantilever. - Provision also exists for unloading ore from vessels directly into cars on tracks parallel to the dock wall and running underneath a part of the unloader. The ore dock is not designed or equipped for handling other than bulk cargoes. LEHIGH VALLEY RAILROAD Co.'s COAL HANDLING PLANT. This terminal is located on the west side of the East Canal, Tifft Farm Basin. The trestle which still exists was formerly used for shipping hard coal. Loaded cars were run out on the trestle, the coal dropped into storage pockets, and then passed by sheet-iron chutes into the holds of vessels, a method yet employed at the Phila- delphia & Reading and the Erie Railroad Co.'s docks. The trestle is yet used to a very small extent for fueling vessels with soft coal, the same procedure being followed as with hard coal before the present coal-handling plant was installed. The new plant is essentially a double pan conveyer, extending from the unloading tracks behind the trestle to the tip of the same. Coal from both gondolas.and box cars is handled. The main features are the two box car unloaders which consist of two rocking cradles with centering and locking devices for holding the cars. The loaded cars are pushed over a “hump” and run by gravity toward the cradles, just ahead of which they are stopped; the slat doors (in the case of box cars) are removed, allowing part of the coal to run out into a Small hopper, whence it is conveyed by an auxiliary conveyer to the main one, which runs under the rocking cradle to the tipple. The partly unloaded car is then drawn by a wire cable into the rock- ing cradle, and after being securely clamped is tilted longitudinally, the ends being raised and lowered alternately. When box cars are unloaded, a machine called a “reciprocating scraper” enters the . car through one of the side doors and prevents the coal from running back when the car is tilted. It forces the coal to run into small chutes, through which it passes to the main conveyers. Two cars can be unloaded at a time. After the coal reaches the tipple it is dropped into a pan and from which it passes through a telescopic chute into the hold of the vessel. # In addition to the box cars, which are unloaded from the cradles, gondola or hopper cars are unloaded directly into track hoppers, located over the top of the main conveyer. There are four of these unloading tracks, making it possible for six cars to be unloaded at WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1867 one time. Bottom dump cars which do not clear themselves over the track hopper are also unloaded on the rocking cradle. Thus these cradles are made to serve a very excellent purpose in addition to unloading box cars. This plant has loaded three vessels with 13,000 short tons of coal in 12 hours, the loading for the first hour amounting to 1,800 tons. NEW YORK STATE BARGE CANAL TERMINAL, ERIE BASIN, BUFFALO, N. Y. The Erie Basin was originally constructed as a receiving basin for the Erie Canal, and while still used as such, the development of lake and barge canal traffic has made the deepening of the basin advisable to accommodate lake vessels. Improvements to this end were begun in 1914 by the State of New York, by which the basin was Originally constructed and is now maintained. These improvements are being made under chapter 746, laws of 1911, which provides for the deepening to 21 feet, at low water datum of the entire Erie Basin between the dock lines and the New York State breakwater, the building of three piers from the present dock lines diagonally out into the basin, and the erection thereon of freight houses, supplied with such mechanical devices as may be necessary. Under existing contract, two of the three contemplated piers have been built, and the deepening of the basin has been generally advanced. A tem- porary wooden freight house, 30 feet by 200 feet, has been built on pier No. 2 to accommodate the present business. This freight house is connected by a spur track with the New York Central Railroad. Contracts have been let for the building on pier No. 1 of a per- manent freight house 80 feet wide and 500 feet long, including the head house at the north end, at an approximate cost for the freight house of $200,000. It is proposed to have the entire building rest upon wooden foundation piles, but should this plan not be feasible, concrete piers will be substituted. º 4- The head house will be 40 feet by 80 feet, two stories high, and have 20 and 12 foot ceilings on the lower and upper floors, respectively. The freight house will be 80 feet by 460 feet, and one story high. The buildings will be of brick, the bases, window sills, copings, cornices, inscription stones and ornaments will be artificial stone manufactured from Portland cement, fine white marble or granite screenings mixed. The base of the freight house will be of concrete. The brickwork will rest upon heavy reinforced concrete girders supported by pile foundations. This is necessary on account of the artificial filling between the timber crib walls of the pier, which is liable to settlement. Owing to the difficulty of getting steel, the roof trusses will be of yellow pine lumber. The roof covering will be either a five-ply tar felt and slag roofing, or a four-ply built up asbestos and asphalt roofing as may be determined later. There will be an arched central driveway, 20 feet wide giving access to the freight house. On the left side of the driveway will be two offices, an entrance hall and a stairway leading to the second floor. On the right side there will be another office and a switch- board room. On the second floor will be four offices, the largest to be 26 feet by 40 feet, and the toilet rooms for men and women. Pier No. 1, on which the permanent terminal freight house will be built, is 150 feet wide. This leaves spaces 35 feet wide on each side 1868 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. of the building, which will be occupied by two standard-gage rail- road tracks, 13-foot centers, connecting with the New York Central Railroad. There will be 11 openings, 16 feet square, on each side of the freight house for loading in and out of the building. Running the entire length of the building will be a gantry crane for handling heavy freight. One support º this crane will be on a heavy rail fastened to a steel girder along the top of the side wall; the other will be a rail along the water face of the dock. As there is a depth of 23 feet of water along both sides of the pier, the largest type of Lake vessel can lie alongside and be loaded and unloaded. Freight can be transferred either to railroad cars or into the freight house, and later loaded into canal barges, the same procedure being applicable also to the latter. The freight house ...if be modern in every particular. The floors of the head house will be a composition known as marble- loid, the floors of the freight house of cement concrete, and the windows and doors of steel. The heating, plumbing, and water sup- ply systems will be first class, as will also the electric lighting and power circuits. Cranes and other machinery will be installed during the building of the freight house. Ohio Basin.—Improvements are also in progress to deepen this basin and Dead Creek entrance to 18 feet and to build a retaining wall or wharf around them. Later freight houses will be built on the Louisiana Street side of the wharf. BLACK ROCK CHANNEL AND TONAWANDA. HARBOR, N. Y. Description.—This comprises the consolidation of three separate improvements, viz: Lake Erie entrance to Black Rock Harbor and Erie Basin, N. Y.; Black Rock Harbor and Channel, N. Y.; and Tonawanda Harbor and Niagara River, N. Y. It covers the upper 14 miles of the Niagara River, which flows in a northerly direction from Eake Erie to Lake Ontario a distance of about 34 miles. Existing project.—This provides for a channel 21 feet deep from But, alo Harbor north entrance through Black Rock Canal, with a ship lock at Bridge Street, and thence in Niagara River to the foot of Tonawanda Island, ending in a turning basin about 1,230 feet long and 1,050 feet wide; and for a channel 16 feet deep in Tonawanda Inner Harbor, and 16 feet deep in Tonawanda Creek, for a distance of 1,400 feet; all depths referred to low-water datum. General character and eatent of the commerce and size and type of Wessels used, etc.—The down-bound receipts for the calendar year 1918, in the order of their value, consisted of lumber, grain and flour, iron ore, copper, sand and gravel, and miscellaneous freight, valued at $17,552,064. The upbound shipments were flaxseed from the Argentine, lumber, merchandise, sand and gravel, coffee, and mis- cellaneous freight, valued at $4,133,798. The total freight traffic amounted to 2,659,227 short tons, of which sand and gravel com- prised 56 per cent, iron ore 25 per cent, lumber 10 per cent, grain and flour 2 per cent, and miscellaneous freight 3 per cent. Its total value was $21,685,862. The receipts and shipments include freight passing through the Black Rock Ship Lock and the sand and gravel excavated from the bed of the Niagara River, which in 1918 aggregated 1,482,252 tons, with a value of $1,010,680. The amount of lumber received at the WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1869 Tonawandas was 143,882,300 feet board measure, valued at $7,194,115. Iron Ore and limestone are carried in vessels of 19 feet draft, and lumber and other commodities in vessels of 134 feet draft. Terminal and transfer facilities.--There are no terminals along the canalized channel above the Black Rock Lock, except for transferring freight across the towpath to commercial plants. There is one public dock at the foot of Ferry Street. The most important ter- minals are the blast-furnace docks and lumber wharves. Of the former, one is on Rattlesnake Island and the other is at North Tonawanda. Three of the lumber wharves are located just below the lock and the other 20 are at Tonawanda and North Tonawanda. The details of these terminals are given in the tabulations. The Tonawandas are located on the Niagara River between Buffalo and Niagara Falls. Tonawanda Creek, which is also a canalized channel of the New York State Barge Canal, separates Tonawanda and North Tonawanda. The two cities have a popula- tion of 25,000 and their lumber market is one of the largest in the world, containing extensive manufacturing industries. It is believed that the existing terminals are adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. - Port administration and charges.—The harbor ordinance adopted by the council of the city of Buffalo applies to the waters of Niagara River as far north as the city line at O’Neil Street, and is described in the Buffalo Harbor report. There are no port administration Or, charges at Tonawanda Harbor. Public ownership or control of water front.—Between Georgia Street on the south and O’Neil Street on the north, the water front is largely held by the United States and the city of Buffalo. That held by the United States, except Fort Porter, was granted by the State of New York by letters patent dated July 25, 1905, and comprised such land and structures as were necessary for the construction and mainte- nance of the Black Rock Canal and lock. The city of Buffalo controls the water front between Georgia and Jersey Streets, acquired for recreation and dock purposes, the north- erly 2,950 feet of the Bird Island Pier, and the adjacent area which reverted to it by act of Congress for occupation and use as a public ark and excursion-boat landing. It has made application for a grant of New York State lands under water at this location which is opposed, as to a part at Georgia Street, by the New York Central Railroad. At Tonawanda, the State of New York controls two barge canal terminals in the canalized Tonawanda Creek, one on each side about one-half mile above its mouth, where the barge canal connects with Tonawanda Harbor. --- NIAGARA RIVER, N. Y. Description.—For description of Niagara River see report on Black Rock Channel and Tonawanda Harbor, N. Y., preceding. The part of the river herein included extends from Tonawanda, 14 miles from j,ake Erie, to Niagara Falls, a distance of 6 miles. See U. S. Lake Survey Chart, Upper Niagara River (Index No. 312). 1870 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Eristing project of improvement.--This provides for a channel 11 feet deep and 200 feet wide from Tonawanda to the Niagara Falls waterworks intake crib, and for a channel 13 feet deep and 300 to 400 feet wide from the Navy Island Channel to the foot of Sugar Street, Niagara Falls, N. Y. Project depths are referred to the sloping river surface when Lake Erie is at low-water datum. General character and eatent of the commerce, size and type of vessels wsed, etc.—Prior to 1918, receipts consisted almost entirely of pulp wood carried down the Canadian channel in vessels of 12 to 14 feet draft. This pulp wood came partly from American ports and partly from Canadian ports on the Great Lakes and the Saguenay River district near the mouth of the St. Lawrence River. The amount received in 1917 was 50,000 short tons, and in 1918 it was 33,734 short tons, with values of $210,838 and $300,000 respectively. In 1918, the receipts consisted almost entirely of sand and gravel excavated from the bed of the Niagara River and transported by suction dredges of 8 to 11 feet draft. The only shipment was 756 tons of caustic soda. Terminal and transfer facilities.—These are confined to two wharves, one at the foot of Sugar Street, and the other (Schlossers) at the foot of Iroquois Street, Niagara Falls, N. Y. Pulp wood is conveyed by endless-chain carrier direct from water to storage yard. The details of these terminals are given in the tabulations. The city of Niagara Falls is the site of the world-famed falls of the Niagara River, and is also well known by reason of the great electric ower development here. It has a population of about 50,000. It is believed that the existing terminals are adequate to meet the present and prospective requirements of commerce. Port administration and charges.—None. Public ownership or control of water front.—There is none; and there are no public docks. The two wharves are owned by the Niagara Falls Power Co., and are open for rental to all water carriers on equal terms. - OLCOTT HARBOR, N. Y.

Of the traffic for which tonnage figures are obtainable, hard and soft coal and coke constituted 93 per cent and was carried in vessels of 14 to 18 feet draft; and pulp wood, lumber, and miscellaneous freight constituted 7 per cent, carried in vessels of 14 to 16 feet draft. The principal freight movement consists of the shipment of soft coal, of which 45 per cent goes to Cobourg, Canada, by car ferry, operated the year round by the two vessels of the Ontario Car Ferry Co. (Ltd.)—Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh, and Grand Trunk Rail- ways. The remaining 55 per cent goes to Ogdensburg, Montreal, and other ports on the St. Lawrence River, in Lake steamers operated by the George Hall Coal Co., of Ogdensburg, N. Y. The principal passenger traffic is carried on by foreign steamers, the most important being the daily service during the summer months by steamers of the Canada Steamship Lines (Ltd.), operating to Canadian ports on the St. Lawrence River and to Toronto and Kingston; and the vessels of the Ontario Car Ferry Co. (Ltd.) oper- ating all the year around to Cobourg, Canada. 1872 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. The shipment by freight vessels and the passenger and miscel- laneous freight traffic, in and out, by passenger steamers practically constitutes the coinmerce of the port. Terminal and transfer facilities. –The principal terminal, with re- spect to the tonnage and value Öf the freight traffic, is the coal trestle of the Charlotte Dock Co. on the west side of the Genesee River. Other terminals are two inerchandise wharves, one car-ferry slip, and one lumber wharf on the east side of the river. The details of these terminals are given in the tabulation.

WSan Diego Harbor is a crescent-shaped natural basin, separated from the ocean by a sand spit about 10 miles long. It has a total length of nearly 16 miles and an area of about 21 square miles. At mean lower low water the area with a minimum depth of 21 feet has . a width varying from 500 to 2,000 feet and is about 9 miles long. The harbor contains about 5 square miles of anchorage ground with a depth of 35 feet or more. The city of San Diego lies about 7 miles from the harbor entrance. * The existing project provides for a jetty on the east side of the har- bor entrance; for an entrance channel 35 feet deep; for an approach to the San Diego municipal pier outside of the pierhead lines, 32 feet deep; and for an earthen dike to divert the San Diego River from San Diego Bay to Mission Bay (False Bay). Most of the present commerce of this port is coastwise. In 1918 the total tonnage handled, inbound and outbound, was: Domestic, 469,000 tons; Mexico and South America, 16,000 tons. About 70 per cent of the domestic commerce consisted of lumber and oil. The vessels using this port vary from the 5,400-ton freight and passenger vessels to the steam and sailing schooners owned by the various lumber companies. The water front of the city of San Diego is about 11 miles in length. Nine piers with a total of 12,500 feet and a berthing capacity of 8,330 feet extend to deep water. The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Rail- road has physical connection with five of these piers. The municipal pier is the only terminal of recent construction, and the operation of this is somewhat handicapped by lack of storage facilities. The port of San Diego is administered by a harbor commission consisting of three members appointed by the mayor. The members are appointed for a term of four years and serve without compensa- tion. The harbor outside of the established harbor lines in front of the city of San Diego is administered by a State board of harbor com- missioners. The port charges are as follows: Dockage: For the first 200 tons or less, 1 cent per ton (net tonnage). For each additional ton above 200, three-eighths of 1 cent per ton (net tonnage) per day of 24 hours or fraction thereof. Wharfage: Wharfage rates, 2% cents to 10 cents per ton. The city of San Diego owns the tidelands along its entire water front, about 11 miles in extent, which were granted from the State by act of legislature upon the condition that the city expend the sum of $1,000,000 on harbor improvements in the bay of San Diego. 1917 1918 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. These improvements have been made, at a total cost of $1,500,000, and consist of one municipal pier 130 feet by 800 feet, with structural -steel warehouse and transit shed 72.5 feet by 720 feet; also 2,750 feet of reinforced concrete sea wall, with 20-foot apron and fender pile system; and the dredging of approximately 2,000,000 cubic yards of material. - A belt line railroad service connecting with all local railroads is very desirable. Only one railroad now has physical connection with existing piers. - On the pier at the foot of G Street are coal bunkers with about 15,000 tons capacity. As most of the ships calling at this pier use oil for fuel these bunkers handle principally inbound cargoes. The Navy Department has a coaling plant at La Playa, on the west side of the entrance channel. The Standard Oil Co. has an oil bunkering pier at the foot of Schley Street. The plant has a storage capacity of 42,000 barrels and a - bunkering capacity of 500 barrels §. hour. The Union Oil Co., with pipe lines on the Benson Lumber Co.'sº at Beardsley Street, has a storage capacity of 58,000 barrels and a bunkering *. of 300 barrels per hour. Shipments of oil to these plants are handled from ship to storage yard through the same pipe lines used for filling bunkers. - Privately owned marine repair plants are equipped for makin repairs not requiring the use of a dry dock. North of the municipa pier are marine ways capable of handling small craft. LOS ANGELES HARBOR. Los Angeles Harbor consists of two parts, the outer or breakwater harbor and the inner harbor, formed by the construction of jetties and by dredging. The existing project provides for a breakwater 11,152 feet long, extending easterly from Point Fermin; for dredg- ing in the outer harbor to a depth of 35 feet; for a channel to the inner harbor 30 feet deep and 16,000 feet long, extending to the turning basin, 1,600 feet in diameter; channels from the turning basin into the east and west basins, 20 feet deep; for a channel 30 feet deep from the entrance of the west basin to its westerly side about 4,800 feet; a channel 20 feet deep and 200 feet wide through the east basin to connect with Long Beach Harbor; and the con- struction of silt diversion works for the protection of Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors. The total tonnage passing through this port in 1918 was 2,091,056 tons. The largest single inbound commodity is lumber, while the largest single outbound trade is in petroleum and petroleum pro- ducts. This harbor is used by vessels of all types, from trans- Fº liners to coastwise steam and sailing vessels in the lumber trade. The terminal and transfer facilities of this port are adequate for the present requirements and are now being extended to meet pros- pective developments of commerce. The port of Los Angeles is administered by a board of harbor commissioners consisting of three members. The members of the board are appointed by the mayor and serve for four years. The president of the board receives a salary; the other members serve WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1919 without remuneration.

The city of Los Angeles owns 90 per cent of the water front, includ- ing 1,581 acres of tidelands. Of the latter, 916 acres have been reclaimed and 350 acres are now under lease. The city has expended to date on the improvement of the harbor $5,800,000. Bonds for $4,500,000 additional were authorized at an election held in May of this year. Practically all existing naviga- tion ſºlities are being utilized and additional facilities are being Created. Railroads.—The terminals on the westerly side of the main channel are served by spur lines of the Southern Pacific Railroad, while those on the easterly side are reached by the Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad. All the other terminals are served by privately owned spur lines or by the Municipal Belt Line, which connects with all local railroads. It is desirable that this belt line, which now has approxi- mately 14 miles of track, be extended around the entire harbor. There is now interchange of traffic between rail and water at 80 per cent of the terminals. - - * Highways.—The outer harbor and the Wilmington district are served by well-paved highways connecting with the city and county highway systems. The extension of these highways to the east side of the harbor is contemplated. Fuel.—There are no coaling facilities at Los Angeles Harbor, most of the shipping using oil as fuel. The facilities for oil loading are unusually extensive and efficient. The Standard Oil Co., on the west side of the turning basin, has a loading capacity of 10,000 barrels per hour, and the General Pipe Line Co., with two loading stations on the breakwater, has a capacity of 7,000 barrels per hour. The Union Oil Co. is constructing a loading wharf at the northerly side of the turning basin which will be connected with its refinery near the head of the west basin. The General Pipe Line Co. is installing a bunkering plant to serve the westerly side of slip No. 1 which will have a capacity of 800 barrels Fº hour. This plant will enable the vessels in this slip to load fuel without leaving their berths. * "Z-99 Egg ‘ood H gzGI 'HITwo SBT35 NV SOT SENIGºws 80+ 8 oz Banoo onw solvaa-13 - - - * E- - * tº º iſ HITwo '8038 v H SETBE, MV Sol 33x Nwl.

The munici- pal warehouse contains 440,000 square feet of storage area and the five municipal transit sheds total 458,000 square feet. Privately owned sheds total 160,000 square feet. All terminals handling general cargoes are equipped with mechan- ical appliances sufficient to care for existing traffic. Greater effi- ciency in the handling of lumber might be attained by the installation of power conveyors or cranes. }. 51 to 55—Outer Harbor Dock dº. Wharf Co.—This terminal is located on the westerly side of east channel, outer harbor. The wharf is 2,900 feet long and from 50 to 133 feet wide, built with concrete piles and wood deck. There are two transit sheds on the wharf, one with wood frame and cover, 58 by 830 feet, and the other a steel building, 110 by 610 feet, with concrete floor. Each shed has a loading platform 18 feet wide, carrying a wharf track. The sheds are equipped with an electrically operated portable power cargo conveyor ...”three industrial electric trucks. T. open section of the wharf is equipped with a locomotive crane for handling lumber. Private spur connects with local railroads. Municipal Pier No. 1–Berths56 to 60.—This pier lies between the east channel and main channel, outer harbor, the wharf being built along the easterly and northerly sides of the east channel. The wharf is a reinforced concrete structure on concrete piles, with a total length of 2,900 feet. A fireproof transit shed with steel frame, 100 by 1,800 feet, occupies the southerly end of the wharf. The shed is equipped with electric trucks and cargo masts. A reinforced-concrete warehouse, 152 feet by 480 feet, stands at the southerly end of Pier No. 1. It is a six-story structure with basement, and is divided by fire walls into eight sections. . It is equipped with an automatic sprinkler system, four electric freight elevators, and has eight whip hoists on each side of the building. Now used as Naval Reserve station. A spur of the Municipal Terminal Railway, connecting with all local railroads, runs along the rear of wharf with deck of cars level with floor of wharf. Two spur tracks of the same railway run the entire lengths of the warehouse on the ground floor. A paved highway connecting with the city streets reaches the wharf and warehouse. The buildings and wharf are at present under lease to the United States as temporary Naval Reserve station. Berths 97 and 98.-On the west side of turning basin. Oil shipping and bunkering point for Standard Oil Co.'s refinery at El Segundo. Plant consists of open wharf 720 feet long, with storage yard on west side of Harbor Boulevard 300 feet from wharf, with pipe-line connection with refinery. Pipe-line connection from storage yard to wharf, with pumping plant midway between yard and wharf. Pipe lines on wharf with portable connections for loading. Storage capacity of yard, 400,000 barrels; loading capacity, 10,000 barrels per hour. Oil both for shipment and for bunkering is pumped from storage yard to wharf. The wharf is a creosoted pile structure with wood deck, and is owned by the city of Los Angeles. Available dockage has recently been increased by lease of 900 feet of Kerckhoff-Cuzner Lumber Co.'s wharf, Berth No. 96. Pipe lines 1924 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. have been laid along this new frontage which will be used in conjunc- tion with the lumber company. An adequate system of fire protection has been installed, both at the wharf and the storage yard. The installation at the wharf is in four units spaced 200 feet apart, each unit consisting of the following: Two barrels, one containing sand, the other a soda solution, for Small fires on the floor of wharf. One 5-inch steam pipe, principally for use on shipboard. One 8-inch salt-water main from pump house. One “foam set.” This “foam.” installation consists of two tanks at the pump house, one containing acid, the other a soda solution. These tanks are connected with a double duplex pump in the pump house from which pipes run in º. to the wharf and to each tank in the storage yard. The liquid from the two tanks is combined at the point of use, the action being the same as that of the familiar chem- ical apparatus used in most fire departments. As an additional precaution the yard is divided into sections by concrete walls, to localize any fire starting in the yard. The fire- fighting equipment of each section—chemical, steam, salt water—is controlled from an adjoining section. Berths 151 to 153—Pacific Steamship Co.—Freight and passenger transit shed. Wood frame, fireproof cover, 100 feet by 405 feet. Loading platform 22 feet wide, with standard gage wharf track. A four-track spur of Municipal Belt Line Railroad at rear of shed.

Fish Harbor is an inclosed harbor for fishing boats, covering about 36 acres. A 30-foot open wharf, 1,485 feet long, extends across the northerly side with fish canneries in rear of the wharf. Along the front of the wharf are elevators and conveyors for unloading fish. The canneries are served by a section of the Municipal Belt Line Railroad that connects with the Salt Lake Railroad. - Long Beach Harbor occupies the easterly portion of the Los º and Long Beach Harbor district. A channel 200 feet wide, 20 feet deep, and 6,300 feet long is now being dredged to connect the two harbors. The entrance to the Long Beach Harbor is about 4 miles from the Los Angeles Harbor entrance. About $1,200,000 has been spent to date in dredging, building jetties, municipal wharf, etc. A steel shipbuilding plant and eight fish canneries are located on this harbor. Municipal Belt Line Railroad connects the ship- building plant and the municipal wharf with local railroads. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1925 SAN I,UIS OBISE’O HARBOR. San Luis Obispo Harbor is 9 miles south of the city of San Luis Obispo. It is an open roadstead, protected on the west and south- west by Point San Luis and a breakwater built along Whaler Reef for a distance of about half a mile. The area protected from south- westerly swells is approximately 570 acres. The existing project provides for the construction of a breakwater from Point San Luis 336 feet to Whaler Island, and from Whaler Island extending southeasterly a distance of about 1,800 feet. The commerce of this port consists principally of crude oil, the shipments for the past five years averaging more than 2,000,000 tons #. year. Employed in the oil industry are vessels of from 26 to 28 eet draft, while the general commerce of the port is carried on in vessels of less than 20 feet draft. There are three piers in this harbor, the county pier at Avila and two piers owned by the Pacific Coast Railroad Co. The railroad piers have no highway connection and the county pier has no physical connection with the railroad. The railroad piers carry 10-inch and 12-inch oil loading pipes connecting with the pipe lines from the oil fields of Santa jº. and Kern Counties. The terminals appear to be adequate to meet the requirements of the commerce of this port. The County Pier is under the control of the Board of Supervisors of San Luis Obispo County. A copy of the ordinance prescribing charges at this pier is inclosed." ſ ºrge at the two piers of the Pacific Coast Railway Co. are as O11OWS . Dockage charges at Port San Luis Wharf: Vessels, 50 tons and under, net register, $2.50 per day or fraction thereof. Vessels 51 tons and up to 950 tons, net register, $5 per day or fraction thereof. Vessels 950 tons and up to 3,500 tons, net register, $10 per day or fraction thereof. Dockage commences upon the vessel when she makes fast to the wharf, and each 24 hours thereafter, or part thereof, constitutes a day’s dockage. Wharfage at Port San Luis Wharf will be charged on all freight handled over wharf at the following rates (will not apply on traffic-moving under joint rates): Grain (whole or rolled), beans, mustard seed, 50 cents per ton of 2,000 pounds. Lumber, domestic manufactured n. o. S., including pickets, piles, poles, post, ties, $1.50 per 1,000 feet board measure. Lath, 25 cents per 1,000 lath. Shakes, 25 cents per 1,000 shakes. Shingles, 15 cents per 1,000 shingles. Oil, in packages, and empty oil packages, 50 cents per ton of 2,000 pounds. Oil loaded through pipe lines, one-third of 1 cent per barrel. All other commodities, n. o. S., $1 per ton of 2,000 pounds. The Pacific Coast Railway Co. owns a right of way 200 feet wide along about one-half the frontage protected by the breakwater. The remainder of the frontage is in private ownership with the exception of a small piece pertaining to the lighthouse reservation. 1 Not printed here. ; WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSIFIER, FACILITIES.

HEUER, UNITED STATES ARMY, RETIRED, IN CHARGE. SAN FRANCISCO HARBOR, CALIF. San Francisco Harbor or Bay is about 40 miles long and from 3 to 10 miles wide. It has about 26 square miles of anchorage area, with depths from 40 to 90 feet. The natural depths and widths being ample, the improvements by the Government have been directed chiefly to the removal of some dangerous rocks about the entrance and within the harbor. Inside the harbor the depths provided over all rocks is 30 to 35 feet at mean lower low water, while outside the depth provided is 40 feet at mean lower low water. The commerce of the port consists of the trans-Pacific trade and other ocean traffic to the north, to the south, through the Panama Canal, domestic coastwise traffic, and the local commerce on the inland waterways of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys. Fuel oil, grain, lumber, and general merchandise are the chief articles of export, while sugar, lumber, coal, etc., are imported in large quan- tities. The local inland waterways traffic is chiefly in agricultural products. The vessels used in trans-Pacific trade are the large passenger steamers, ocean freighters, and fuel-oil tank ships. These vessels are from 5,000 to 13,000 gross tonnage and draw from 25 feet to 32 feet loaded. In the coastwise traffic there are passenger steamers running to Southern California, Mexico, and South America to the South, and to Washington, Oregon, British Columbia, and Alaska to the north. These vessels are from 3,000 to 5,000 gross tonnage and draw 20 feet to 25 feet loaded. The freight carriers and lumber Schooners that ply up and down the coast are smaller and range from 2,000 to 3,500 gross tons and draw 18 feet to 21 feet loaded. The very considerable local water-borne commerce with the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valley points is carried in shallow draft river boats. The State-owned wharves and water-front properties are adminis- tered by the board of State harbor commissioners, composed of three members appointed by the governor of the State of California, who serve during his pleasure. The jurisdiction of the board extends over the area in the bay between the bulkhead line and pierhead line and some 28 sea-wall lots aggregating about 26 acres shoreward of the bulkhead line from the San Mateo County line to the Presidio Reservation on the Golden Gate, a distance of about 10 miles. The improved frontage extends from Hyde Street, near the Fort Mason *. 1939 1940 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Reservation, to the Central Basin, a distance of about 4 miles. South of the Central Basin, no improvements have been made by the board of State harbor commissioners along the water-front line; the area under their jurisdiction along the frontage south of Central Basin lies under water and no control over it is exercised at present. Pri- vate wharves in this vicinity are inside of the harbor lines, subject to being cut off from the bay, when the State, under the authority of the law, extends its wharf system along the harbor lines. At Fort Mason the United States Government has established a system of transport docks and piers to supply the needs of the troops in Alaska and the Pacific insular possessions. The improved portion of the water front has a completed sea wall extending from Hyde Street to Channel Street, a distance of about 3% miles. This front is developed by a series of modern piers, freight and ferry slips facing a marginal street 200 feet wide, known as the “Embarcadero,” over which the harbor commissioners also exercise jurisdiction. Piers and car ferries have connections with the belt line railroad, so that the whole forms one interconnected terminal and transfer system. The marginal street and belt line railroad stop at Channel Creek, a 200-foot wide waterway having a bulkhead wharf frontage of 14 miles. Beyond Channel Creek there is a completed stretch of sea wall extending about 3,000 feet, which is improved with a bulkhead wharf and two piers. Beyond this point, in what is known as the Central Basin and Islais Basin areas, the frontage is used for industrial purposes, and the board has made no improve- ments except for a bulkhead wharf, 2,200 feet long, constructed on a waterway known as Islais Creek. At the present time there are 39 piers, the largest of which are from 800 to 1,000 feet in length and 200 feet in width, while smaller ones are about 600 feet in length and 100 feet in width. These piers are all provided with freight sheds running practically the full length and with railroad tracks on each pier. These piers provide a cargo area of 5,712,189 square feet. There are 15 miles of berthing space or sufficient to accommodate 245 vessels of the average size. The system of water terminals is designed to accommodate all the different classes of water-borne traffic of the port, whether local, coastwise, or foreign. The different classes of water-borne traffic may be briefly summarized as follows: (a) Passenger service with transbay cities.—To accommodate this service the State has provided a union passenger depot, having 12 ferry slips, where all passenger ferries land. The number of pas- sengers passing through this depot amounts to some 39,000,000 per 8,Ill).Ullſ]]. (b) The freight-car ferry service.—Six large ferry slips are provided exclusively for car ferries over which a large portion of overland and California freight is delivered into San Francisco. Three of these slips are connected directly with the State belt railroad and the other three are connected directly with the three transcontinental railroad lines terminating at San Francisco. (c) River boat service.—Six piers are now devoted to the river boats connecting with the California valley points. There is now being constructed a unified concrete pier terminal designed especially to accommodate the Sacramento River service. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1941 (d) Coastwise traffic.—Five piers are assigned to the vessels engaged in the coastwise trade. (e) Offshore and foreign trade.—This includes vessels engaged in commerce with foreign countries and insular possessions. Eighteen piers are now reserved for vessels engaged in this trade. (f) Fish harbor.-At the north end of the water front the State has constructed two basins inclosed within rock walls for the exclusive use of the retail and wholesale fish business. These basins are com- pletely equipped with necessary wharves, repair shops, ways and markets for facilitating the fishing industry. (g) Towboat service.—Two piers and the adjacent slips are assigned to towboats and launches. (h) Coal trade.—One pier is especially equipped with bunkers and devices for handling of coal. (i) Ecpress business.-One pier adjacent to the union passenger depot is reserved for the use of companies engaged in local and rail- road express business. (j) Lumber trade.—The bulkhead wharves of Channel Creek and Central Basin at the southern end of the present water front are assigned to vessels engaged in the lumber trade. In order to provide a ready connection between rail and water and the industrial establishments at the terminals, the State has con- structed and operates a belt-line railroad which extends around the active water front, a distance of 5 miles. Direct rail connection is made with practically all railroads and in addition this belt line serves a large number of industrial establishments. This belt-line railroad has also been extended by means of a tunnel (at a cost to the State of $270,000) to serve the United States Government transport docks at Fort Mason and the Presidio Military Reservation to the west of the city water front. In all, about 40 miles of track are included in the system operated by the belt-line railroad. Terms and conditions of use.—Previous to 1910 certain of the piers along this water front were constructed through funds obtained from a 15-year lease for their exclusive use. Under this system two large piers were constructed for two of the transcontinental railroads and two piers for a trans-Pacific steamship line. On these piers the State collected dockage and tolls on all vessels, but the lessees paid no rental, Since 1910 all new construction has been paid for by the sale of State harbor bonds or out of the current revenue of the port. The interest-bearing obligations of the port in 1918 amounted to $12,300,000. The piers constructed under this system are leased under conditions which give the tenant the right of occupancy only when he has a vessel occupying the berth, the board reserving the right to put any other vessel at such a berth whenever the tenant is not actually using it. This rental system is based on a 30-day ten- ancy and the lease may be canceled by the order of the board of State harbor commissioners at its pleasure. In general there is a dual system of levying tolls, a distinction being made between the foreign and offshore traffic, on one hand, and the coastwise and inland waterway traffic on the other hand. Vessels in the foreign and offshore trade, including the insular possessions and Alaska, pay tolls on cargo only, no dockage being levied against the vessels. These tolls Vary according to the commodity but are based on a charge of 15 cents per short ton plus 5 cents per ton for 1942 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. dock rental. Vessels in the inland waterway and coastwise traffic pay tolls on the cargo, dockage on the vessels, and rental for wharf space. Dockage is assessed at 2 cents per ton per day up to 200 tons and three-fourths cent for each additional ton. Tolls for this class of traffic levied against the cargo are based on a charge of 5 cents per ton. Storage on the docks is not allowed and demurrage charges of 25 cents per ton per day for a 5-day period and 50 cents per ton per day thereafter are levied on the cargo. Pilotage charges (compulsory for vessels engaged in foreign trade) are not under the jurisdiction of the board of State harbor commissioners but are fixed by State law at $2 per draft foot, and 2 cents per net registered ton. Handling and loading of cargoes is performed by independent steve- doring companies and these charges are independent of the wharf management. Bunkering facilities are furnished by private coal and oil com- panies, the bunkering being done by barge in the stream or in the slip at which the steamer is discharging or receiving cargo. Fresh water for use of ships is available on all piers and can be run into tanks without interfering with the handling of cargo. Adequate facilities are available at San Francisco for dry docking and repairing of ships of all kinds, there being several large ship- building plants located on San Francisco Bay and its tributaries. The State wharf system makes no provision either for outfitting or repair plants, although ships are assigned to berths at State piers in convenient locations for repair purposes, in which case iº. is charged at half rates. In the matter of rapid turn around of vessels, the State is com- mitted to a policy of equipping the piers with modern labor-saving devices in order to enable vessels to load and unload in the least pos- sible time. Locomotive cranes operated on the tracks along the docks and the use of semiportal cranes on certain piers is now under consideration. As a joint rail and water terminal it is believed that San Francisco is well supplied by the facilities operated by the State of California. This State º is valued at something like $26,500,000. Of this amount more than $7,000,000 is invested in real estate, $13,000,000 in piers and wharves, $600,000 in the belt-line railroad and equipment, and $1,500,000 in buildings, the balance being in sundry items, such as sea walls, street improvements, etc. All these terminal facilities are maintained by revenues derived from dockage on ships, tolls on cargoes, rental of docks, sea-wall lots, buildings, etc., and the belt- line railroad switching charges. The terminal system has been self- supporting from the beginning and under the law it is required to so continue. Such a terminal system operating at cost and having a centralized control over the activities of the entire water front has proven to be successful in developing the port, meeting the require- ments of a gradually increasing commerce and taking full advantage of the improvements afforded by the Federal Government for the locality. The terminal system is believed to be lacking, however, in warehouse facilities and storage tracks contiguous to the piers for facilitating the handling of through freight. All warehouses are in private ownership and scattered about the city at some distance from the water front, which requires a good deal of drayage in the handling WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1943 of freight. To relieve this condition it is proposed to erect a terminal system to the south of the city at what is known as Islais Creek. There has thus far been no great demand for such a system of ter- minals because San Francisco is a distributing center rather than a freight transfer port. With the development of new trade routes in consequence of the opening of the Panama Canal it is to be expected that the freight transfer business will become important and the Islais Creek terminal system will afford extensive facilities for this business. The proposed layout of piers at this terminal and the arrangement of railroad yards, lumber yards, coal bunkers, warehouses, and the facilities for the rapid handling and storing of freight, etc., are be- lieved to have considerable merit as the result of Tong and careful study by capable designers who have had extensive experience with the problems not only of handling large volumes of rail and water freight but also of providing the terminal facilities therefor on a large scale. Furthermore, they are at this particular locality in a virgin territory and unhampered by any fixed or established developments that so often hinder or defeat an ideal layout in localities that already have an existing terminal of some sort. REDWOOD CREEK, CALIF. This creek is about 5% miles long and is tidal throughout. It is subject to silting, although there is not very much fluvial discharge into it. The existing project provides for a channel 150 feet wide and 5 feet deep at mean low water from San Francisco Bay up to the municipal wharf, about three-fourths of a mile below Redwood City. The tidal range is 9 feet. The commerce of the creek consists chiefly of hides, leather, fish, salt, etc., amounting to about 25,000 tons per annum, valued at about $1,000,000. The vessels used consist almost entirely of gasoline * and barges, with an occasional sailing vessel of shallow raft. There are six wharves, all of ordinary pile construction, except one which consists of a filled bulkhead. One of the wharves is owned b Redwood City, but it is in bad condition and has been abandoned. The other wharves are privately owned, three of which are open to public use when not in use by the owners, subject to a wharfage charge of about 10 cents per ton. These wharves appear to be entirely adequate to accommodate existing and prospective commerce. Considerable interest has been taken in this waterway by local authorities, including considerable dredging in the channel improved by the Government. The ocean-going concrete steamship Faith, the first of its kind, was built on this waterway as a result of the efforts of local interests to stimulate the commerce of the creek. In the matter of warehouse facilities, ample covered storage space is available either on or very near practically all of the wharves. There is no spur track on any of the wharves and connection with local railroads is by highway only. OAKLAND HARBOR, CALLF. This waterway is a tidal estuary about 1,000 feet wide and about 7 miles in length, with a natural basin at the upper end connected by 1944 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. an artificial canal with San Leandro Bay, an arm of San Francisco Bay, to the south. . Of the frontage thus afforded about 45 per cent of that on the north or Oakland side of the harbor and about 20 per cent of that on the south or Alameda side has been developed. The existing project provides for a channel 500 feet wide and 30 feet deep at mean lower low water from deep water in San Francisco Bay through Oakland Estuary to Brooklyn Basin, a distance of about 43 miles; 300 feet wide and 25 feet deep around said basin and 18 feet deep through Oakland Tidal Canal to San Leandro Bay, a farther distance of 43 miles, making a total length of 9% miles, and for par- allel jetties at the entrance. The chief items of commerce are general merchandise, lumber, crude oil, coal, and building materials. It has been estimated that about 75 per cent of the commerce is local freight and the other 25 per cent, consisting chiefly of lumber and coal, is largely coastwise traffic. Much of the activity along this waterway is incidental to shipyards and other industrial plants. The vessels using this harbor vary from gas launches of all sizes up to 100 tons to the steel steamships of 7,000 tons. A great part of the traffic is handled by launches with or without lighters in tow; steam schooners varying from 130 to 210 feet in length and 15 to 22 feet draft; ferry boats (making about 80 trips per day); stern-wheel steamers, ocean-going steamships, particularly those built at the shipyards located on the harbor, and there are about 30 sailing vessels which leave in the spring to engage in the Alaska fishing during the summer season and return in the fall to winter quarters in the harbor. These sailing vessels vary from 1,000 tons to 3,500 tons and draw from 15 to 25 feet of water. Considerable quantities of coal are brought into port in steel steamships varying from 1,000 tons to 7,000 tons, and more or less regular trips are made by oil tankers varying in size from 500 to 4,000 tons. The terminal and transfer facilities in this harbor consist of 60 wharves, 2 freight ferry slips, and 1 passenger ferry slip. Twenty- three of the wharves are owned by the city of Oakland, of which 17 are leased and reserved for the private use of lessees, while 6 of them are open to the public on equal and reasonable terms. There are also 2 private wharves open to the public on equal terms. Five of the wharves are used by shipbuilding companies. At 27 of the wharves freight-handling machinery or appliances are provided, consistin generally of locomotive cranes, sheer legs, and derricks. The coa bunkers are equipped with overhead electric traveling cranes, while the largest lumber wharf has two cantilever cranes, of 50 tons capac- ity each. Only seven wharves are provided with warehouse or stor- age facilities, while seven others have rock and sand bunkers, and two have coal bunkers. The warehouses are usually freight sheds of ordinary frame construction. One of the municipal wharves has a steel-frame galvanized-iron warehouse about 90 feet wide by about 400 feet long, and another municipal wharf has a wooden frame galvanized-iron warehouse 66 feet wide by 455 feet in length. . Of the 60 wharves only 5 have as much as 30 feet of water alongside, which is the depth provided in the Government channel; 6 others have about 25 feet of water and 7 more have 20 feet; the rest have less, ranging generally from 10 to 18 feet. Hence, much of the com- WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1945 merce of the locality is carried in shallow draft vessels. These facili- ties appear to be adequate for the existing and prospective commerce. The city of Oakland has control of practically all of the water front on the north side of the harbor from the root of the north jetty on the west to the Government Tidal Canal on the east. The Government owns the berm of the Tidal Canal, and under a ruling by the Secretary of War the owners of land adjoining the Government land on the Tidal Canal may build wharves out to the bulkhead and pierhead lines and use them free of charge. There are four parcels of land along the estuary claimed, respectively, by the Southern Pacific Co., the Western Pacific Railroad, the Hogan Lumber Co., and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad. Presumably for reasons of policy the city has not elected to exercise its right to take possession of these four parcels of land. On the rest of the water front the city has built and opened for public use on equal terms to all parties five wharves or piers and one quay wall 1,900 feet long. The balance of the water front controlled by the city has been leased to private parties on terms which include a nominal yearly rental (averaging about 25 cents per linear foot of frontage per year) and generally the payment of dockage and tolls, according to the rates established by the city. Practically all of the dockage and tolls paid by the various lessees, according to the terms of the leases has to be spent on improvements to the immediate wharves, dredging in front of the wharves, or other permanent improvements. The leases also provide that if any filling is made on the leased property, the city of Oakland will reimburse the lessees at the termination of the lease at a rate not to exceed 10 cents per cubic yard for the fill made. This condition applies more particularly to those leases along the north side of the tidal basin from Ninth Avenue east to the Tidal Canal, a distance of about 8,000 feet. The entire length of the water front, measured along the pierhead line from the rock jetty at Peralta Street to the Tidal Canal, is 24,185 feet, of which the city of Oakland owns 17,195 feet and private parties 6,990 feet. A portion of this frontage claimed by private parties is now in litigation between the claimants and the city of Oakland. On the south or Alameda side of the harbor there is a frontage, measured along the pierhead line from a point at the east end of the south jetty to the tidal canal of 19,920 feet. Of this frontage, the city of Alameda owns 1,000 feet which is leased to the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation (Ltd.), for a period of 25 years on terms which provide that the lessee shall spend $50,000 on dredging and other improvement. The rest of this frontage is owned by private arties. p On the Oakland or north side of the harbor the interest shown in improvements of terminal facilities has been very, marked during recent years, especially the last two years. Practically all of the docks have been dredged to depths sufficient for traffic, including a depth of 25 feet in front of the quay wall, 25 feet in front of three wharves, 20 feet in front of and alongside of the Livingston Street Pier, 25 feet in front of five wharves under lease, and 30 feet in front of and alongside two piers under lease. Private owners have also maintained depths in their docks sufficient for traffic. These depths vary from 13 feet where gas schooners land to 25 feet where ferry boats and steam schooners land. 1946 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. On the Alameda side of the harbor the Southern Pacific Co. has a roject to dredge from the Government channel up to the pierhead ine to a depth of 30 feet for a distance of 4,000 feet just west of Web- ster Street Bridge. This project was held up for the period of the war, and it is now expected that this work will be commenced shortly. East of Harrison Street Bridge private and corporate parties have dredged from the Government channel to the pierhead line for a distance of 4,800 feet to a depth of 30 feet; thence for a distance of 1,850 feet the harbor has been dredged to a depth of 25 feet; thence for a distance of 600 feet to a depth of 30 feet; and beyond this three Fº parties have dredged up to the pierhead line to depths varying rom 18 to 25 feet. Through the tidal canal which now has a depth of 18 feet and a width of 150 feet (both banks owned by the United States) there is a total frontage of about 18,550 feet. One private party at the eastern end on the north bank has recently dredged from the Government channel up to the pierhead line for a distance of 700 feet to a depth of 21.5 feet, or 2 to 3 feet deeper than the Government dredged channel. Traffic to this wharf in the near future is expected to be steam schooners loaded with lumber and having draft from 17 to 22 feet. Along the south half of the tidal canal for a width of 150 feet the depths from the 18-foot channel to the pierhead line are only about 10 feet. This is to be increased to 18 feet depth which will be ample. As to rail and water connections, on the north side of the harbor 11 of the wharves have spur tracks connecting with the transconti- nental railroads and all of the rest of the wharves have spur tracks in the yard back of the wharf or have easy access by highway to the railroads. On the Alameda, or south side of the harbor, five of the wharves have spur tracks and all of the rest have spur tracks in the yard or have easy access by highway to the transcontinental railroads. The existing rail and water connections are deemed sufficient for the present traffic. In the matter of coaling and repair of vessels, the harbor is pro- vided with one large coal bunker used principally for unloading colliers for local commercial and domestic use. Only at rare inter- vals does a vessel take on coal at this harbor. There are two wharves On which oil companies maintain fuel oil pipe-line connections for loading ships and for unloading oil tankers to oil tanks on shore. One, oil company also maintains tanks for gasoline and distillate on shore and a pipe line on the wharf to supply launches and gas boats. There are four shipyards capable of making repairs to any vessels that can enter the harbor. These shipyards maintain five marine railways, each of which is capable of handling steel vessels up to 5,000 tons and one floating dry dock which is capable of handling a vessel of 4,000 tons. One shipyard has two marine railways for handling barges and steam schooners up to 500 tons. There are four Smaller shipyards which handle launches and small wooden barges up to 50 tons. All of these shipyards have adequate machine shops, tools, etc., necessary to make repairs to the size and type of vessels that use the harbor. As stated above, only seven of the wharves in this harbor are pro- vided with warehouse or storage facilities. There is, therefore, a lack of covered storage space on the wharves. There is also a lack WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1947 of adequate freight unloading machinery, and the only method of handling freight is by hand truck or horse-drawn lumber trucks. Practically all freight is unloaded from the vessels by ships tackel, either by steam donkey engines on board or from a donkey engine on a lighter. One lumber company, however, has two 50-ton capacity cantilever cranes to unload lumber, which has been especially crated for the purpose. Four shipyards and one railroad company have wooden or steel mast sheer legs to unload from barges; one coal com- any uses overhead traveling electric cranes to unload coal into its i.e. Four wharves have small stiff-leg or mast derricks operated by hand to unload packages up to 5 tons in weight. UPPER SAN FRANCISCO BAY, CALIF. The terminals considered under this heading are those located on the eastern shore of San Francisco Bay from Alameda Point on the south to Point San Pablo on the north, a length of about 14 miles, which we will call the east frontage; and those on the northwest shore from Point San Pedro on the north to Sausalito on the south, a length of about 12 miles, which we will call the northwest frontage. On the east shore there are several points of land extending toward the bay as Alameda Point, Gibbon Point, Point Fleming, Point Isabel, Point Potrero, Point Richmond, Point Castro, Molate Point, Point Orient, and Point San Pablo. Between these points there are long bights in the shore. Along the whole frontage there are mud flats from 1 mile to 3 miles wide. The surface of these flats is from near high water inshore to 3 to 5 feet depth of water at low tide a mile or a mile and one-half out where the slope increases toward deep water of the bay. The depth of soft mud on these flats is from 8 to 60 feet and often varies greatly in short distances. Below the mud is generally a hard sandy yellow clay and some blue clay, both of which are hard and expensive to dredge but make a first-class fill. In some places the mud carries 50 per cent of fine sand which dredges easily and makes a fairly good fill when given plenty of time to settle and drv. s #; Alameda Point a jetty or training wall was built 2 miles out on the south side of the entrance to Oakland Harbor and another jetty on the north side 1,000 feet from and parallel with the south jetty for a protection to the entrance channel. A channel has been dredged 500 feet wide and 30 feet deep at low water between the jetties and extends 3,500 feet beyond the end of the jetties to the 30-foot contour in the bay. Originally a railroad was built on a pile trestle, just south of and parallel to the south jetty, to about 12 feet of water, to connect with }. and passenger transbay ferryboats. From the spoils of dredging by the Government and private parties a mole has . built about 200 feet wide along the south side of the jetty to its outer end, where is the ferry slip for passenger traffic. The Southern Pacific Railroad Co. owns the mole and ferry slip. Along the north side of the north jetty a mole 100 to 500 feet wide has been built from the spoils of dredging, which is occupied by the Western Pacific Railroad Co. with freight and passenger slip, at the outer end. Alongside the passenger slip there is a wharf for the transfer of freight to and from ships. The railroad company has 1948 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. dredged from the wharf to the Government channel to 25-foot depth. There is a basin about 2,000 feet wide from the Western Pacific mole north to a second Southern Pacific mole known as the Oakland mole. This basin has been improved by the Southern Pacific Railroad Co. by dredging a channel alongside the mole 300 feet wide to 30 feet of water in the bay. Large wharves and docks are being constructed for the transfer of freight between rail and water. Between the Oakland mole and the Key Route mole to the north there is a basin about 2,000 feet wide. This basin is being improved by the city of Oakland by dredging a channel from deep water to the wharves of the several industrial plants back of the bulkhead lines such as the Albers Milling Co., the Parr Terminal Co., and the Union Construction Co. (a shipyard). The Parr Terminal Co. propose to construct a joint rail and water terminal for the accommodation of coastwise steam- ship lines. These four moles have ferry slips for transfer of all passenger traffic. Between the Key Route mole and Richmond, a distance of 6 miles, there is very little development along the shore. The principal wharf is in front of Berkeley, which extends out 1 mile to 7 feet of water at low tide. There are several other small wharves extending out to 2 and 4 feet of water and no large amount of business is done over any of them and they have no rail connections. No improve- ment of the waterway has been made along this front. At Richmond the Government has adopted a project for the im- provement of the inner harbor. This includes a dredged channel 600 feet wide and 24 feet deep from deep water outside Point Rich- mond to Point Potrero and thence up to Ellis Landing, a total dis- tance of 3 miles. This project also includes a turning basin at Point Potrero and a training wall out from Brooks Island about 6,000 feet long. This harbor is more fully covered by the report on Richmond Harbor. At Point Richmond are located the freight and passenger slips for transfer at the terminus of the Santa Fe Railroad. This railway company has done some dredging to maintain depths at its wharf and slips. One and one-half miles above Point Richmond is the wharf . of the Standard Oil Co., 3,500 feet long and extending out to 28 feet of water. Over this wharf are several pipe lines for the transfer of oil from oil tanks or reservoirs in Richmond to ships bound for all parts of the Pacific Ocean. This company has done some dredging to maintain depths at its wharf. Above this wharf is a ferry slip connecting with San Quentin Point on the northwest shore princi- pally for the accommodation of passengers and automobiles. Above this point are two small wharves and rock bunkers for the transfer of crushed rock to barges of light draft. In the bight above Point Molate is located the California Wine Association works at Winehaven; the wharf here extends out to about 9 feet of water at low tide. Over this wharf great quantities of wine are shipped in to a large winery. The wine is brought to the wharf on stern-wheel steamers from the inland rivers of California. An electric tramway extends the full length of the wharf and connects with the Richmond Belt Railway inshore, which in turn extends along the water front around San Pablo Point and connects with two transcontinental railroads. A mile above is Point Orient where the Standard Oil Co. has a large wharf for the accommodation of ocean- WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1949 going vessels. Oil is transported from storage tanks ashore through pipe lines over the wharf to vessels bound for all ports of the Pacific Ocean. At the front and around this wharf the company does some dredging to maintain 30 feet of water. - - At Point San Pablo there is located a large apron wharf and ware- house, both connected with the belt railroad. This is practically a rail-and-water terminal, as the belt railroad connects with two conti- nental railroads and the wharf fronts on deep water where any deep- water vessel can go and load or discharge cargo. Large quantities of railroad ties, telegraph poles, and lumber are received in and asphal- tum and powder are shipped out over this wharf. The city of Oakland owns the Oakland water front and leases it to public carriers and corporations. The city of Richmond has a municipal dock open to the public with reasonable wharfage and storage charges. All other wharves on the east shore are under the control of corporations and companies. The existing rail-and-water terminals are adequate for the present business. NORTHWEST FRONTAGE OF SAN FRANCISCO BAY, CALIF. This extends from San Pedro Point on the north to Sausalito on the south, a distance of 12 miles. On account of the extensive mud flats, the sparsely settled country adjacent to the shores, and the limited connection with railroads, but very little development has been made here. Near San Pedro Point are a wharf and rock bunkers connected with a quarry where crushed rock is shipped out on light draft barges, but there is no railroad connection. Point San Quentin is 3 miles farther west where a local ferry connects with Richmond on the east bay shore and transports passengers and auto- mobiles. There is about 8 feet of water at this point and the ferry- boats are the only boats that land there. A wharf on the south side of Point San Quentin serves for landing, in light-draft steamers, supplies for the San Quentin State prison. There is no rail connec- tion here. On the west shore of San Francisco Bay, about 7 miles north of the Golden Gate, is a naval coaling station at California City, with wharf facilities and coal bunkers. This station is equipped with coal-hoisting machinery with a capacity of 200 tons per day and deep water extends along most of the wharf. The only rail connection on the western shore of San Francisco Bay is at Tiburon and Sausalito, the terminus of the Northwestern Pacific Railroad which extends 300 miles northerly into Humboldt County and has several branches into the adjoining country. This railroad connects with a branch railroad from Santa Rosa through Sonoma, Napa, and Solano Counties to Suisun, where it joins the main continental line of the Southern Pacific Railroad. Much through freight is carried over this line. Tiburon is the principal freight terminus of the Northwestern Pacific Railroad and is provided with wharves and ferry slips. Over the wharves much freight is transferred between vessels and cars. At the ferry slips cars are run on to ferry barges and are transported across the bay to San Francisco. The railroad company has made extensive improvements at Tiburon by building rock walls, dredging and filling back of the walls to make more yard room and to make ... “p 1950 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. deep water at docks and wharves. The efficiency of this terminal is equal to the requirements of the traffic. The passenger, express, and automobile terminal of this railroad is at Sausalito and it is also the terminus for several suburban electric lines. Large numbers of automobiles are transported across the bay from San Francisco on special ferryboats. The railroad company has made extensive improvements along its water front by earth and rock fills to give more room for its numerous tracks. A wharf along- side is used principally by oil boats and barges. No projects have been adopted by the Government for the im- provement of navigation along this water front (except for San Rafael Creek), as the existing facilities are sufficient. - The commerce is limited to local needs; that is, merchandise is shipped in for local consumption and the products of the country, principally agricultural, are shipped out to local markets. There are no general distributing points either at the terminals or, along the railroads, and there is no overland traffic. Therefore there is no necessity for accommodation for deep-water ships, except at the naval coaling station at California City. Coastwise vessels drawing 16 to 19 feet of water can land at Tiburon. There is no port administration and there are no port charges. Public ownership is not desirable at the present stage of development. A very general interest is manifested by the people who travel across the bay by ferry to Tiburon and a better service for the transportation of automobiles is demanded, as they are very numerous and the number is increasing rapidly. In other respects the service is satisfactory. Fuel oil is supplied at Sausalito for all small craft and the storage capacity for oil is abundant. There is a yard for building and repairing small boats up to 100 tons capacity and light-draft barges. RICHMOND HARBOR, CALIF. The approved project for this harbor contemplates an entrance channel 600 feet wide protected by a training wall faced with riprap, a suitable turning basin at Point Potrero, and a channel thence to Ellis Slough, all to a depth of 24 feet at mean lower low water. Practically all the freight traffic at this locality is over the Santa Fe Railroad Wharf at the entrance to the harbor. There is a small amount of freight handled over the new municipal wharf just inside the entrance. The vessels using the harbor are mostly of light draft, although a few deep-draft vessels have recently loaded at the new municipal wharf. There are four wharves and piers in this harbor and one ferry slip of the Santa Fe Railroad outside of but near the entrance to the harbor. Of the wharves in the harbor, one is a municipal wharf, mentioned above, of concrete construction throughout and open to the general public on reasonable terms; the other wharves are pri- vately owned. These facilities are considered adequate for existing COIſlineI'Ce. SAN PABLO BAY, CALIF. This bay is about 10 miles northeast of San Francisco and is about 12 miles long and 6 miles wide. The natural channel through the WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1951 bay was from 22 to 30 feet in depth and from 1,000 to 2,000 feet wide. From this channel toward either side the water shoals gradually to extensive mud flats at low tide. The present project for the im- rovement of this waterway is for a channel 500 feet wide, 27,000 eet long, and 30 feet deep at low water. For excavating and main- taining this channel a seagoing hopper dredge was built and has been operated on the work since August, 1916. The result of this work is a channel equal to the project dimensions. All commerce for Mare Island Navy Yard, Suisun Bay, and the rivers above passes through the San Pablo Bay Channel. There is no development on the north and west shore of the bay except a small wharf at the south end of the bay at Point San Pedro for the landing of the Petaluma River boats drawing 6 to 7 feet of water and a wharf and bunkers, also at Point San Pedro for handling crushed rock from an adjacent rock quarry. There is no rail con- nection and all traffic is by water. A channel has been excavated by the United States Government 14,000 feet long across the mud flats off the mouth of Petaluma Creek to deep water (8-foot contour) in San Pablo Bay. On the south shore of the bay there are two large powder factories, the town of Pinole, and one large oil refinery at Oleum. At the powder works and the town of #.ie there are wharves extending out to 3 to 6 feet of water at low tide. These wharves accommodate stern-wheel steamers and light-draft schooners at high tide. The tidal range is fully 5 feet. The powder works use the wharves and water traffic to a limited extent. Most of their business is done by rail, as spur tracks from the main railroad line connect with all their works. The wharf at Pinole is used for ship- ping hay by light-draft schooners and the business is limited to few months in the year. The oil refinery at Oleum at the upper part of the bay has an inner and an outer wharf. The refined products of oil are furnished to light-draft vessels at the inner wharf. The outer wharf connects with deep water (30 feet or more), and there are several large pipe lines connecting the wharf with the oil works on shore. Large quantities of crude oil are shipped in and refined products º out over this wharf. Crude oil is shipped in by boat from the southern coast of California and by rail from the interior of California. Large ocean-going vessels drawing 26 to 28 feet of water go through San Pablo Bay to the wharf at Oleum. Terminal and transfer facilities are all under the control of the companies and railroad and there is no port administration and no port charges. The water front was formerly under the control of the adjacent county, but franchises have been granted to companies and corporations to occupy the water front. On account of the sparse settlement of the shores, no general interest is shown in the improvement of terminal facilities by the public. No effort is made to utilize the facilities for navigation except by the companies and corporations located on the waterfront. The existing rail-and-water connections have been developed only in accordance with the demands and extent of the present business. There does not appear to be any prospect that any changes or extensions in the rail-and-water terminals in the bay will be made in the near future and under the present conditions no joint rail-and- water terminals are necessary. e channel in the bay is sufficient for all existing traffic and the terminals may be improved as business 1952 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. demands. There are no ways for repair of ships, and no coal bunkers, as oil is used for fuel and is supplied at Oleum, which has a very large storage capacity. CARQUINEZ STRAIT, CALIF. This strait connects San Pablo Bay with Suisun Bay and is 6% miles long, one-half to 1 mile wide, and from 31 to 100 feet deep. No changes have taken place in the conditions of the waterway, and no project has been necessary for its improvement. On the north side of the strait are located a codfish salting station, a shipyard for building wooden ships, the wharves at the city of Benicia for river steamers, and the wharf at Army Point, all for shallow-draft vessels. The south side of the strait for a distance of 4 miles is occupied by manufacturing plants, wharves, and hay and grain warehouses. The general depth in front of the wharves is 30 eet or more. Farther up on the south side are the landings for small and shallow draft boats at the city of Martinez, and the wharves of the Shell Oil Co. and the Oriental Oil Co., which connect with deep water. The Selby Smelting Works for the reduction of ores and the manufacture of lead products is located on this shore. This is a large and extensive plant with ample wharfage on deep water (30 feet or more), which is extensively used by ocean-going vessels drawing from 28 to 30 feet. The California Hawaiian Sugar Re- finery handles large quantities of raw sugar brought from the Ha- waiian Islands. ong the front there are wharves on deep water for the accommodation of ships and transfer of cargoes. The Shell Oil Co. handle and refine large quantities of oil brought from Sumatra and Borneo. The Associated Oil Co., at Port Costa, handle large quantities of fuel oil, which is produced in central California and piped to their tanks. The wharves and warehouses for handling hay and grain are large and extensive. Twenty-five years ago they were used to their full capacity, but with the decrease of production of §. in California they are only used to about one-half capacity. arves and landings for the bay and river traffic are extensively used and are sufficient for all present purposes. Large ocean-going ships of 3,000 to 8,000 tons burden and drawing from 26 to 30 feet are accommodated at the principal wharves in the strait. One through-line railroad crosses the strait by ferry between Benicia and Port Costa. There is one local ferry line between Benicia and Martinez. - All the principal wharves on the south side of the strait and Army Point and Benicia on the north side are connected with through rail- roads by spur tracks and turn-outs. The only port administration along the strait is at Martinez and Benicia and is exercised to a lim- ited extent in regard to local traffic only. The port charges consist of rentals and dockage. . Public ownership of terminal facilities on this waterway is not desired, because under private control extensions, improvements, and additions can be and are made more expeditiously as the demands of the trade and commerce require. Interest shown in the terminal facilities is confined to the com- panies and corporations occupying and using those facilities. Efforts are made to utilize the navigation facilities available up to the extent WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1953 of conditions and requirements. Rail and water connections for all large wharves and manufactories along this waterway are ample for all purposes. . e relations existing between the railroads and the shippers are all that could be desired, and no joint control is desired. The general efficiency of the port is adequate. The fuel oil facilities for bunker- ing purposes are ample; there is one shipyard for repairs to vessels. The present storage facilities are sufficient. Where betterment of conditions is required, extensions and additions are being made by the interested parties. SUISUN BAY, CALIF. This bay is 15 miles long and from 1 to 5 miles wide. It extends from Carquinez Strait easterly to the mouths of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, and there are within its limits several islands and two small bays–Grizzly Bay and Honker Bay—which are prin- cipally mud flats at low water. There are two channels through Suisun Bay and several small subsidiary channels leading to landings and sloughs out of the bay. The main channels are designated the South Channel and the North Channel. All river traffic passes through the South Channel, where the controlling depth is 10 }. at low water. All outside or coast schooners and craft drawing more water P. through the North Channel, where the controlling depth is 19 feet at low water. The South Channel, however, is 3 miles shorter than the North Channel. No work has ever been done in these waters for the improvement of navigation. The Government º at the last session of Congress a project for the improvement of the South Channel and New York Slough. ... This project calls for a channel from Carquinez Straits to Point Edith, 300 feet wide and 24 feet deep; from Point Edith to New York Slough 300 feet wide and 20 feet deep; and through New York Slough 300 feet wide and 18 feet deep. - - Commerce has been developed along the south side of the bay only. Beginning at the west end there is located the Mountain Copper Co., a large smelting works for the reduction of ores, with a wharf to dee water; but there has been no great amount of traffic over the wharf, as most of the ores are brought by rail, although ores are brought sometimes by water from South American ports and would be encour- aged by deeper water at the end of the present wharf. The #. Chemical Co. is next east of the Mountain Copper Co.'s wharf, with a large sulphuric acid plant and a wharf extending to deep water, and is also served by a spur track connecting with the main line of the Southern Pacific Railway. Its product is shipped to the great oil refineries at Oleum, Richmond, and Los Angeles. About 2 miles farther upstream is the wharf of the Associated Oil Co., which is located on the edge of the South Channel in 30 feet of water. Its approach is a mile long over a mud flat to the shore near Avon, a railroad station on the Southern Pacific Railway line. The refinery and pumping station of this company are located about a mile inland from Avon and are connected with the wharf by pipe lines through which large quantities of oil, both refined and crude, are received and shipped to ports on the Pacific and also to foreign 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—123 1954 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. countries. Ships drawing up to 24 feet can reach this wharf at high tide, but under present channel conditions at Bulls Head Point do not load over 20 feet in order to pass that point outbound with safety. The number of vessels, oceangoing and river craft, docking annually at this wharf is in excess of 300. The next important enterprise above Avon is the Pacific Coast Shipbuilding plant, located at Seal Bluff Landing on a subsidiary channel from the main South Channel in between the Seal Islands and the mainland. This is a newly established plant for fabricating steel ships up to 10,000 tons. It has several shipways for launching vessels and a long modern wharf with trams and large cranes for outfitting ships. e channel has 19 feet depth at low tide. The head of deep water in this subsidiary channel ends at Bay Point, about six-tenths of a mile to the eastward, where the Coos Bay Lumber Co. has an extensive manufacturing and distributing plant. The raw product is brought in from the northern coast of California, Oregon, and Washington by steam vessels drawing from 16 to 20 feet. The company's wharf is a large structure, equipped with two traveling cranes capable of uniºn, 1,500,000 feet of lumber in eight hours. It has also an elaborate system of narrow gage trackage connecting the dock with the main yards and factory on shore. These yards are on the main lines of three railroads, and the products are shipped out by rail. The General Chemical Co. has a large reduction plant about 2 miles eastward from Bay Point. Its principal output, aside from ore reduction, is sulphuric acid, which is shipped by rail to the large oil refineries and powder works in the West. It has service from three railway lines. It has not thus far been able to employ water traffic, but has a small tram line to the shore and contemplates building a large wharf in deep water as soon as channel depths will warrant in order to transport sulphuric acid to southern California. points by water instead of by rail. This company does an annual business of about $2,500,000. - . The Oakland, Antioch & Eastern Railway crosses the main chan- nel of Suisun Bay at Chipps Island by a large gasoline boat ferry, having at that point about a half mile run. It transports 16 to 18 freight and passenger trains daily across this waterway. It has deep water terminals, so far as ferry slips may be concerned. The trains are operated by electricity, and the ferry is for the exclusive use of the railway. * NEW YORK SLOUGH, CALIF. A cut-off 3 miles long, known as New York Slough, with a con- trolling depth of 13 feet at low water leads from the upper part of Suisun Bay into the San Joaquin River, through which cut-off practically all of the San Joaquin River traffic passes. Commerce originating in New York Slough has been extensively developed along the south shore, coming principally from the Columbia Steel Works, the Bowers Rubber Works, the Great Western Electro- Chemical Co., the F. E. Booth Canneries, the Lanteri Shipyard, the Standard Oil distributing plant, and the Redwood Manufacturers’ Co. The latter concern is the largest redwood manufacturing plant in California, and is also the heaviest shipper, and distributor on New York Slough. doing an annual business in excess of $3,000,000. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1955 In 1917, 178 seagoing carriers, drawing from 16 to 18 feet, delivered cargoes at this company's wharves from Washington, Oregon, and northern California ports. These vessels usually wait for high tides to cross the shoals in Suisun Bay and New York Slough, and even then run aground and are obliged to resort to lighterage in some cases. Owing to the present condition of the channel at the west end of this slough, ocean-going vessels are obliged to pass up the Sacramento to its confluence with the San Joaquin River, then enter the San Joaquin and continue upstream to the easterly end of New York Slough and turn downstream to reach the wharves at Pittsburg, thereby placing this important manufacturing city at a great disadvantage. There are 10 other wharves used chiefly by river steamers and other light-draft vessels drawing not more than 10 feet of water. The oil company wharves have pipe lines for transfer of oil to all sorts of river craft that traverse Suisun Bay and the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers. Of the other wharves, three are equipped with heavy cranes, tram cars and tracks; the remainder have tracks and trams. A joint industrial track of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe and Southern Pacific Railways is laid along the water front for 14 miles with rights of way for spur tracks to each of the large manufacturing establishments. There is no port administration but the wharves are generally for public use, the port charges being reasonable for rentals, dockage, and wharfage. There is no general desire for public ownership, but there is a growing interest in improvement of terminal facilities, dependent upon the waterway improvement. The considerable extent and interest of private companies and corporations owning frontage along this channel will evidently stimulate the improve- ment and use of terminal facilities. The existing rail connections of three railway systems have been entirely adequate, but the limited present channel facilities have been outgrown by shore development, and the improvements proposed by the Government will undoubtedly encourage greater use of the waterway and con- sequent development and improvement of terminals. Coal is not used for power, which is amply supplied from fuel oil and two hydro- electric transmission lines. SUISUN CHANNEL, CALIF. This is a tidal inlet from Suisun Bay. The navigable portion is about 17 miles in length and the channel has a depth of about 6 feet at mean lower low water and a width of 80 feet, with a turning basin or harbor at the head of navigation. * The commerce consists of fuel oil, building materials, general merchandise, etc., and amounts to about 125,000 tons per annum, valued at about $3,000,000. The vessels used consist principally of gasoline launches, towboats, and barges. On the waterway there are five wharves of ordinary pile construction, all in private owner- ship and all reserved for the private use of the owners except one which is open to all water carriers on equal terms, subject to a dock- age charge of 1 cent per ton and a wharfage charge of 15 cents per ton. - 1956 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Physical connection of wharves with railroads is by highway only, but the Vallejo & Northern Railroad (a local electric line) has tracks extended to one of the wharves. This waterway is of but small commercial importance. Most of the freight of the territory is handled by the railroads because of the better service afforded. Local authorities apparently take no #.; interest in the improvement of the waterway or terminal acilities. MARE ISLAND STRAIT, CALIF. This strait is about 4 miles long and from 800 to 1,200 feet wide and connects the upper end of San Pablo Bay with the mouth of Napa River. It is a tidal estuary and as the Napa River empties into it on the north and the waters of the San Joaquin and Sacra- mento Rivers flow past it and into it on the south with the tides, it shoals quite rapidly. The United States Navy. Department has charge of the improvement and maintenance of this waterway. A channel has been excavated 500 to 1,000 feet wide and 30 feet deep at low water and requires annual dredging. Spur dikes have been built on each side of the waterway to narrow the channel to create more scour. Harbor lines have been established by the Government. The city of Vallejo is located on the east side and the Mare Island Navy Yard on the west side. The navy yard builds ships for the Government and has dockage and dry dockage for the repair of ships. On the east side of the strait about one-third of the frontage is occupied by wharves. A large flour mill is located near the entrance of the strait where large quantities of grain from the interior valleys are delivered by barge and the products are shipped out by rail on spur tracks and over the wharf to ocean- going vessels drawing from 25 to 30 feet of water. The balance of the frontage is used for ferries and schooners drawing 18 feet or less. One line of bay steamers from San Francisco to Vallejo carries passengers and express matter and connects with the Northern Electric Railway. The Southern Pacific ferry from Vallejo Jun tion to South Vallejo transports passengers and express matter and connects with the steam railway to the north. A ferry running between Rodeo, on the south side of San Pablo Bay, and South Vallejo carries automobiles and passengers. There is one lumber yard which supplies local trade only. Small schooners drawing 16 to 18 feet of water bring the lumber from the northern coast of California to the navy yard. The city of Vallejo has one municipal wharf and a small amount of freight passes over it. The city is not a distributing center and only freight for local needs is required. Railroad freight for Vallejo is diverted from the main line railroad at Suisun, Calif. Cars and freight for Mare Island are often barged from San Francisco. The terminal and transfer facilities are for the accommodation of passengers and express business and are adequate for all present needs and requirements. No freight of any consequence is shipped in or out of Vallejo by water or rail except at the flour mill, above mentioned, and the navy yard. A passenger ferry is run between Vallejo and Mare Island and a trestle bridge has recently been constructed across the strait from the north end of Vallejo to the island for the accommodation of the workmen on WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1957 the ind. One draw span in the bridge allows for the passage of WGSSéIS. Nearly all the water front on the east side of the strait is owned by the city of Vallejo. Port charges consist of dockage, wharfage, and rentals. A general interest in the improvement of the water front and terminal facilities has been manifested. Large sums of money have been appropriated and expended by the city in building bulkheads and filling and reclaiming the mud flats on the water front. Efforts have been made to utilize the facilities up to the present demands of commerce and travel and the rail and water connections are satisfactory. The port not being on a main line railway does not require or need a joint rail and water terminal for transfer of freight. The general efficiency of the port is equal to all present require- Iments. NAPA RIVER, CALIF. Napa River rises in the St. Helena Mountains, flows in a southerly direction and empties into Mare Island Strait, an arm of San Pablo Bay. The existing project covers only the lower 18 miles from the head of navigation at Napa, Calif., to Mare Island Strait, and pro- vides for dredging, making four cut-offs, and removing snags and overhanging trees to obtain and maintain a channel 75 feet wide and 4 feet deep at mean lower low water. The commerce consists of building materials, petroleum products, lumber, grain, mineral water, and general merchandise, and amounts to about 100,000 tons per annum valued at about $3,000,000. The vessels used on this waterway consist entirely of shallow- draft boats, not over 6 feet draft. The vessels are launches, stern- wheel steamers, barges, and gravel dredges. The greater part of the wharves on this river are within the city of Napa and they are principally privately owned and controlled and not open to public use. The city of Napa, however, owns and controls the west bank of the river for a distance of about 2,650 feet within the city limits. There is a municipal wharf on this front- age leased to a transportation company for the sum of $300 per year. There are no other charges for the use of the wharf or the warehouse connected with it. There is also one bank landing leased for a nominal sum to a private concern for use in unloading and storing gravel, shells, etc. The lessee has erected his own unloading machinery and storage bins. The rest of the city-owned water front has bank landings only and is open to the public without charge. The city employs a wharfinger at a compensation of $180 per year to collect commercial statistics. The traffic on this river is small and local authorities have shown but little interest in the improvement of terminal facilities. The city of Napa has spent a small amount of money on dredging and upkeep of wharves and warehouses, but it has allowed two municipal wharves to deteriorate until they are now out of commission. Private owners have made no improvements in their terminal facilities. The present terminal facilities seem to be ample for the commerce of the river. 1958 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. There are no existing rail and water connections and none of the wharves have spur tracks. There are no bunkering facilities at this port, although two oil companies maintain storage tanks from which crude and refined oils can be supplied to vessels. There are no shipyards on the water- way for repair of vessels. Most of the wharves have warehouses or storage for freight. PETALUMA CREEK, CALIF. Petaluma Creek is an estuary of San Pablo Bay about 17 miles long from the head of navigation at Petaluma, Calif., to its mouth in San Pablo Bay. The existing project provides for a channel across the mud flats in San Pablo Bay 8 feet deep and 200 feet wide for a length of 14,000 feet, making cut-offs through projecting points of land, and dredging and maintaining a channel about 6,100 feet long, 50 feet wide, and 4 feet deep with a turning basin near the upper end. The commerce consists generally of grain, petroleum products, lumber, agricultural products, and general merchandise and amounts to about 250,000 tons per annum valued at about $20,000,000. The vessels used on this waterway consist of launches, stern-wheel steamers, and barges, generally none of which are over 6 feet draft. The greater part of the water front of this waterway within the limits of the city of Petaluma is privately owned and controlled and not open to public use. The city of Petaluma, however, owns and controls several pieces of water frontage, including a municipal wharf, which are open to all water carriers free of any charges. On the city-owned water frontage ample terminal facilities are afforded to the public free of charge. The city employs a wharfinger at $300 per year to collect commercial statistics on the waterway. All of the wharves on this waterway, including the municipal wharf, are kept in good condition. The city of Petaluma sets aside each year at least 5 per cent of tax collections for the improvement and maintenance of the waterway. The sum thus set aside amounts at present to about $5,500 per year. Seven of the private wharves have spur tracks on the wharf con- necting with local railroads. The municipal wharf has at present no spur track connection but it is reported that arrangements are being made to put in such connection. A local railroad, the Petaluma & Santa Rosa Electric Railway, which runs from Petaluma to Sebastopol and Santa Rosa, a distance of about 24 miles, connects with a wharf at Petaluma where steamboats land daily from San Francisco. This wharf has 420 feet of frontage and is 43 feet wide, with a warehouse on the wharf 200 feet by 30 feet. There is a ware- house back of the wharf 125 feet by 80 feet, connected with the rail- road and with the wharf for the storage of freight. The wharf fronts on a basin 400 feet long, 6 feet deep, and 125 feet wide and is connected with the main waterway of Petaluma Creek by a canal 100 feet wide, 6 feet deep, and 3,400 feet long. This canal and basin were excavated by private parties over private land and are still owned and controlled by them. In order to maintain the required depths dredging is necessary at least semiannually, and this WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 1959 is done by the owners. About 50 per cent of the water-borne com- merce of Petaluma passes through this canal and basin. There are no bunkering facilities on this waterway, but one oil company maintains storage tanks on shore from which crude and refined oil may be obtained by vessels. There are no shipyards or other places to make repairs to vessels. Practically all of the wharves have warehouses sufficient for the traffic. SAN RAFAEL CREEK, CALIF. This waterway is a narrow slough about 2 miles in length, empty- ing into San Francisco Bay. The existing project provides for a channel 8 feet deep and 100 feet wide across the flats at the mouth of the creek and thence a channel 6 feet deep and 60 feet wide to the head of navigation, including a cut-off at a sharp bend and a turning basin at the upper end. - The commerce consists of lumber, hay, feed, general merchandise, etc., amounting to about 40,000 tons per annum valued at about $750,000. The vessels that use this waterway are the ordinary gasoline launches, barges, and scow schooners of light draft. There are six wharves of ordinary pile construction on the waterway and they are all for the private use of the owners. Two of them have spur track connection with local railroads. Local authorities have taken some interest in this waterway. They have secured funds from the State of California and by a bond issue for use in improving the waterway and under the terms of the existing project the local authorities are required to contribute one-half the cost of the original construction. This is a waterway of but small commercial importance and no work has been done as yet by the Federal Government toward im- proving it. ALVISO SLOUGH, CALIF. This waterway is about 5 miles in length and is tidal throughout. The slough was formerly under improvement by the United States, but the project was abandoned some 12 years ago. The commerce consists mostly of agricultural products and amounts to about 9,000 tons per annum. The vessels used are gasoline launches and scow schooners of shallow draft. r There are six wharves on the slough, all of ordinary pile construc- tion. There are no spur tracks on any of the wharves and connection with local railroads is by highway only. The terminal facilities are adequate for all present and prospective COIſl][I] eI’Cé. - HARBOR AT MONTEREY, CALIF. What is known as Monterey Harbor is an open roadstead located at the south end of Monterey Bay, about 95 miles south of San Francisco Harbor. The roadstead has a mean low-water depth of 60 feet in the outer part and 18feet in the inner part. The existing project provides for a breakwater 2,000 feet long to protect the harbor from ocean swells that do considerable damage to shipping. 1960 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The commerce consists principally of crude oil and general mer- chandise, and it amounts to about 250,000 tons per annum, valued at about $9,000,000. The vessels used in this commerce are the ordinary coastwise freight- carrying vessels of 2,000 to 5,000 tons and 15 to 25 feet draft. The terminal facilities consist of 33 wharves of ordinary pile con- struction. All the wharves are reserved for the private use of owners or lessees except one, which is owned by the city of Monterey and is open to the public on equal terms. For the use of this wharf there is a º charge of 50 cents per ton and a dockage charge of 1% cents per registered gross ton of vessel. On lumber there is a wharfage charge of 25 cents per thousand feet. This municipal wharf has a movable frame warehouse 40 by 100 feet, and it is the only wharf that has any warehouse or covered storage facilities. Eight of the wharves have spur track connection with local railroads. There is some interest shown in the improvement by local authori- ties. No work has ever been done at the locality by the Federal Government because local interests have not complied with the con- ditions precedent to the commencement of such work. This harbor has but slight commercial importance aside from the transfer of oil from pipe line to vessel, the pipe lines connecting with . the California oil .# There is, therefore, no call for any joint rail and water terminal. There are no facilities for coaling or repairing vessels and no demand for such facilities. HUMBOLDT HARBOR AND BAY, CALIF. Humboldt Bay is about 14 miles long with an extreme width of # miles and an average width of three-fourths of a mile. The existing project provides for two jetties at the entrance and dredging a channel 300 feet wide and 18feet deep at mean lower low water for a length of 6,200 feet in front of Eureka, Calif. The commerce consists of general merchandise, fuel oil, dairy products, lumber, etc., amounting to about 400,000 tons per annum, valued at about $15,000,000. The vessels used at this locality are the usual coastwise steam schooners, together with offshore and foreign vessels engaged in the lumber business. These vessels are from 18 to 25 feet draft and 2,000 to 5,000 tons. . The water terminals consist of 50 wharves, mostly of ordinary pile construction. Twelve of these wharves have spur track connection with local railroads. Five of the wharves are owned by the city of Eureka, three of which are leased to private parties, one is open to public use on equal terms, and the fifth one is out of commission. The water front of the city of Eureka was granted to the city by the State legislature in 1853. Since then the city of Eureka has disposed of practically all this water front to private interests and at present owns only a small portion. There is a State board of harbor com- missioners appointed for the Eureka water front similar to the board appointed for the San Francisco water front. Practically no tolls are charged, although a maximum rate has been fixed by the State board WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACTLITIES. 1961 of harbor commissioners. The tolls where charged are nominal. The maximum rates are reported as follows: Wharfage (on freight), perton.--------------------------------------------- $0.25 Dockage: Each vessel under 50 tons, per day. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - . 75 Vessel of 50 and under 75 tons, per day. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.00 Wessel of 75 and under 150 tons, per day. . . . . .......................... 1. 50 Wessel of 150 and under 250 tons, per day............................... 2. 50 Wessel of 250 and under 500 tons, per day. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4.00 Wessel of 500 and under 1,000 tons, per day. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6. 50 Wessel of 1,000 tons or over, per day....... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10.00 The existing terminal facilities are adequate for the water-borne commerce of #. Bay. This commerce has been decreasing very rapidly during the last five years, due partly to the completion of a railroad connecting Eureka with San Francisco and partly to the scarcity of vessels incidental to the war in Europe. Until the water-borne traffic has been revived, the navigation facilities avail- able will not be very extensively used. There are ample facilities in local shipyards for construction and repair of vessels and also facilities for bunkering. On the wharves of the bay there are about 26,000 square feet of warehouse space available for the storage of freight. The terminal facilities are believed to be sufficient to accommodate all the present water- borne commerce of the port. # water TERMINALS AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. HUMBOLDT BAY, CALIF. RYANS SLOU GEI.

THIRD SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF., DISTRICT. COL. L. H. RAND, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. SACRAMENTO AND SAN JOAQUIN RIVERS, CALIF., AND THEIR TRIBU- TARIES. The Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers with their tributaries drain what is called the Great Valley of California. The floor of this valley contains about 10,000,000 acres, mostly of very fertile farming land, the greater part of which is under cultivation. Quite a diversity of crops is raised throughout this valley, depending on location, soil, and climatic conditions. The navigable portion of the Sacramento River, 255 miles, extends from its mouth at Collinsville to Red Bluff, near the extreme northern part of the Great Valley referred to above. Feather River, a tributary of the Sacramento, is navigable to Marysville, 28 miles above its mouth, and with Steamboat and Georgiana Sloughs (a part of the delta system of the Sacramento River) make a total of 302 miles of navigable water. The navigable part of the San Joaquin River extends from its conjunction with the Sacramento River at Collinsville to Hills Ferry, 128 miles above the mouth, of which the upper 60 miles is navigable only a small part of the year, and the amount of commerce is, rela- tively, only a small part of that of the wholò river. In addition to the San Joaquin River proper, there are 250 miles of natural and artificial channels in the §. of the San Joaquin and the Mokelumne Rivers, which are navigable throughout the year and upon which originate or terminate a large part of the total commerce reported for the rivers in this district. Existing projects.-The existing project for the Sacramento River provides for a channel 7 feet deep from the mouth to Sacramento, 61 miles; thence 4 feet deep to Colusa, 90 miles; thence 3 feet deep to Chico Landing, 51 miles; and such depths as practicable thence to . Red Bluff, 53 miles. All depths are referred to low water. . The existing project for the San Joaquin River below Stockton, a distance of 45 miles, provides for a channel 9 feet deep and 200 feet wide. No project covers the side channels of the delta, but in the utilization of clamshell dredges for leveeing the islands of the delta it was necessary for them to dig navigable channels 7 feet or more deep at low water for their own flotation, even if not so required to produce the necessary levee cross section. The existing project for the Mokelumne River provides for a chan- nel depth of 9 feet to New Hope Landing Bridge, 18 miles from the 2042 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2043 mouth via the South Fork, and a depth of 6 feet 13 miles from the mouth via the North Fork; from New Hope Landing to Galt-New Hope Bridge, 8 miles, a depth of 3 feet. Commercial statistics.--The commercial statistics for the Sacra- mento and San Joaquin Rivers have been notable for years for the amount of commerce shown in proportion to the depth, capacity, etc., Of * streams for high unit value, and great resulting value of the total. During the year 1917 the commerce upon the Sacramento River amounted to 947,690 short tons, valued at $96,820,922, of which 24 per cent was grain and millstuffs, 20 per cent merchandise, and 15 per cent fruit and vegetables. Upon the San Joaquin River it amounted to 1,890,856 short tons, valued at $50,367,760, of which 1,250,000 tons was water pumped from river and transported for industrial use. Of the remainder, 21 per cent was grain and mill- stuffs, 19 per cent merchandise, and 28 per cent vegetables. Upon the Mokelumne River it amounted to 78,954 short tons, valued at $6,806,410, of which 33 per cent was grain and millstuffs, 16 per cent merchandise, and 33 per cent vegetables. In addition, the following number of passengers were carried: Fifty-seven thousand seven hundred and ninety-seven on the Sacramento, 206,131 on the San Joaquin, and 18,961 on the Mokelumne. The commerce upon the upper part of San Joaquin River, above Stockton, and upon the Feather River, a tributary of the Sacramento, is so small relatively on each that both will be omitted from any further consideration in this report. There have been established various commercial lines which handle the commerce in various ways on various parts of the streams. Between Stockton and San Francisco, and between Sacramento and San Francisco, daily packet steamers, and special vessels during the pressure of the green vegetable and fruit seasons, furnish a reliable, constant, and reasonably adequate service to meet the needs of the Very fertile country. From the upper Sacramento River large quantities of wheat, barley, rice, and ºns are moved down river to Sacramento and to lower river and bay points, including San Fran- cisco, on barges towed by stern-wheel river steamers. Often in the lower river four barges are towed astern in tandem by one steamer. From the many streams and side channels of the San Joaquin Delta a large amount of grain, vegetables, and fruit are moved to Stockton and San Francisco on barges in tow of gasoline towboats. Also there are a large number of gasoline launches and boats that navigate the numerous channels of the delta, carrying many passengers and transporting much of the commerce. Existing terminal facilities.—On the Sacramento, and Feather Rivers above the city of Sacramento all of the landings are bank landings, except small, wharves at Grimes and Knights Landing. The freight is usually transferred between the boats and the ware- houses by hand trucks and chutes. The various warehouses also generally have pile-supported platforms and runway approaches as needed. Two warehouses a short distance above the city of Sacramento, belonging to the Natomas Co., are worthy of special note. The Moreing Bros., of Sacramento, have about 20,000 acres in grain and 2044 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. ship in bulk through these two warehouses. The grain is hauled from the thrashing machine to the warehouse in bottom dump wagons and trucks. At the warehouse it is dumped into a hopper, elevated to the roof of the warehouse, and discharged by gravity through a pipe into boats and barges for transportation to a mill in Stockton, §. At Sacramento there are 4,521 linear feet of wharves, of which 1,850 feet are owned by the city and 420 feet are open to general public use. There are 198,150 square feet of warehouse space, of which 81,400 square feet are owned by the city and 18,480 square feet are open to general public use. Facilities for transferring to railroads are only fair, being too much crowded by streets and rail- roads to permit of expansion. Some of the warehouses are equipped with elevators that lift the freight vertically from the level of the boat's deck to the floor of the warehouse, the freight being moved horizontally by hand trucks. A small portion of the public wharfage front is virtually dead space, being occupied by a coal unloading, storing, and loading arrangement out of use for many years. The rice industry has also led to the construction of two large rice- milling plants in West Sacramento (across the river from the city) and one in Sacramento. The rice is brought down the river in boats and barges, where it is unloaded and conveyed into warehouses by electrically driven belt conveyors. There are also several large bean-cleaning plants at Sacramento and West Sacramento which are similarly equipped for the handling of beans. The plant at West Sacramento is especially well equipped with conveyors. The beans can be conveyed direct from boats to cars without being handled in any way by hand. In West Sacra- mento also is one river-type marine ways of sufficient capacity for river vessels. Below Sacramento the terminal facilities are ample and are largely owned by the farmers and are maintained for their own convenience. At Stockton, on the San Joaquin River, there are 13,000 linear feet of water front on McLeod Lake and Stockton Channel above the mouth of Mormon Channel, of which 9,300 linear feet are owned by the city of Stockton and the balance by private interests. On Ormon Channel there are 18,000 linear feet of water front, of which 7,000 linear feet are owned by the city. The total floor space in warehouses on all the above water front is 800,000 square feet, of which 36,000 square feet are on land owned by the city, and about one-third of the frontage is covered by wharves. All of the wharves are parallel to the stream and most of the ware- . houses are close to the boat landings. All warehouses have railroad spur tracks leading to their doors, except one or, two which are used exclusively for local freight. Some warehouses are brick structures, but most are wooden frames, with corrugated galvanized-iron cov- ering. The terminal facilities here are considered ample for the present commerce, with the exception of mechanical appliances for handling the freight. Scarcity of labor often interferes with the operation of the boats and barges and on occasions has limited the amount of traffic on the delta. WATER TERMINAT, AND TRANSFER FAC I I ITI FS. 2045 Submitted herewith are views of Stockton Harbor. One is an endless-chain arrangement for assisting loaded hand trucks up the inclined gangplank of the steamer. Another is a portable electric elevator for stacking grain in warehouses. The third is an endless bucket conveyor used by the Sperry Flour Mills for conveying grain received in bulk in hopper barges, º in another picture. Of the many landings in the delta of the San Joaquin and Moke- lumne Rivers, all but a few are merely bank landings, and only a few have warehouses. The waterways of the delta are navigable at all seasons of the year, and all are within a short distance of Stock- ton. Consequently the need of warehouses at the landings has not been felt. The facilities here are considered ample. Fuel oil, including gasoline and distillate, is used almost exclu- sively for fuel on the waterways of this district. Service stations are maintained at many of the more important landings, and oil barges deliver fuel to any point or boat in the navigable waterways. Ample boat yards at Sacramento, Stockton, and other less impor- tant points furnish necessary facilities for present needs of commerce. Discussion. In discussing the terminal situation and the condi- tions influencing it on the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers three prominent differences in the needs and requirements of these two streams should be kept in mind. (a) The navigable part of the Sacramento River is practically one main trunk line extending for about 150 miles to the northern part of the Great Valley, while the navigable portion of the San Joaquin River consists of the 250 miles of the streams of the delta, in which are included the Mokelumne River and its delta and tributaries, no point of which is more than 45 miles by water from Stockton. (b) The extreme upper part of the Sacramento is fully navigable only a part of the year, requiring large warehouses for holding cer- tain crops harvested in the dry season until the rainy season makes the river navigable, while in the San Joaquin delta all the streams are navigable throughout the year, thus enabling all crops to be brought to the market promptly. (c) The greatér fluctuation of the water surface on the Sacramento makes necessary a levee about 35 feet high, while in the San Joaquin delta many levees are only 15 feet above low water. The higher levees on the Sacramento accentuate the need of mechanical arrange- ments in warehouses for lowering and raising the freight at numerous points along the Sacramento River, while on the San Joaquin delta the deck of the barges and the top of the levees are so much nearer the same elevation that the need of mechanical arrangements for handling the freight is not so great. New terminal suggested. Before discussing and recommending Sug- gested local improvements at present terminals used by existing lines of traſſic a change is recommended in the routing of transcontinental shipments of grain, etc., from the upper Sacramento River. This changed routing and the construction of the proposed ter- minal at Knights Tanding are rendered advisable only because, dur- ing and since the war, ocean freight rates from San Francisco have been greatly increased, while those from Gulf ports have not been correspondingly raised. Before the war the ocean freight rate on 2046 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. grain from San Francisco to Europe was about $7 per ton, which was less than the rate by rail to the Gulf ports. At that time, there- fore, there was no incentive for a movement of export grain by rail from the Sacramento Valley to Gulf ports. At present (1919 and spring of 1920) the ocean rate from San Francisco is about $35 per ton, while the rail rate to the Gulf is about $12 and the ocean rate from there to Europe about $9. As long as this relation of rates continues the movement to Gulf ports will be advantageous, and a terminal at Knights Landing useful. This condition is, however, obviously a temporary one, and as soon as more vessels become avail- able at San Francisco the ocean rates are liable to be considerably reduced. In the light of these facts the proposal to create a terminal at Knights Landing must be regarded as dependent upon the con- tinuance of conditions whose permanency is doubtful. As rates now are, however, assuming an export traffic of 100,000 tons of grain or more, the entire cost of the terminal might be recouped in a single season by a scale of transfer charges which would still leave ample profit in the export movement from the Sacramento Valley via Gulf ports. During the movement of grain from the Sacramento Valley in the summer of 1917 there developed a new route of transportation. Grain was moved down the Sacramento River in barges by the Sacramento Transportation Co. to the city of Sacramento and then transferred to the Western Pacific Railroad, which carried it across the Sierras and then sent it on to its destination at New Orleans. This was accomplished in substitution for the practice prevailing in earlier years of bringing the grain some 80 miles farther by water to Port Costa and turning it over to the Southern Pacific Railroad for the eastward haul. The Western Pacific, while a single-track road across the Sierras, has the lowest prevailing grades and the least passenger traffic to interfere with freight movement. Movement of material on the Sacramento River is greatly ham- pered by the obsolescence and inadequacy of the plant of the river transportation companies. Anything which would minimize the river haul, without increasing the rail haul, would be to the best advantage of the country at large, regardless of what it might be to the individual carriers concerned. It is understood that the move- ment above outlined as started in the summer of 1917, while a very natural substitute for the previous movement was, nevertheless, accomplished by some change of rates. It should be understood that the remarks below are entirely independent of any artificial matter, such as the arbitrary rate established, and consider solely the physical aspect of the haul. There is recognized a certain overhead administrative expense which must necessarily be added for every transfer of jurisdiction between lines with the accounting, switching, checking, etc., involved. The water front at Sacramento City is some distance, however, from the Western Pacific trunk line, and the actual placing of cars at the water front for the loading from the barges, and their later switching onto the main line and making up the train, is not entirely free from such overhead and similar administrative expense. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2047 The 21-mile stretch of river immediately above Sacramento City is where the navigation conditions are the worst, and limits the loading of the barges between their origin and their destination at Sacra- mento to less than what would otherwise be their full capacity. It is clear that if this section of the river can be eliminated from the water haul there would be a distinct saving in the load which the barges could carry on each trip, as well as in distance, and the dis- tance saved would, for the point purposed below, be 34 miles by river haul, including this 21 last mentioned and would save the passage through three drawbridges, all of which carry rail lines and one of which is the main transcontinental line of the Southern Pacific Railroad. The passage through two of these bridges, particularly the last mentioned, is always a matter of difficulty, and frequently a matter of very extensive delay. The necessity of opening the bridges must, and does, interfere with rail traffic, and it is not very unusual for a boat to get stuck in the draw and hold the rail traffic up for hours at a time, even to causing its diversion to other less advantageous roundabout routes. Except for the beans, practically all of the grain that comes down the valley is handled to destination in the sacks in which it is placed in the harvest field—that is, there is no process of recleaning, regrad- ing, or resacking, which would of course require elevators even with- out storage. There has been some idea of developing the elevator method of handling in the valley, but it is not as yet in any degree accomplished. All of the grain is handled in sacks. The beans must, under prevailing practice at least, be recleaned, and for this it is prac- tically necessary, unless there is further development, to send them as far as Sacramento City. There is very good possibility, however, of diverting all of the other grain traffic so as to spare Sacramento City and the river in its vicinity, not only the saving above mentioned in the water haul, but also a considerable saving in the rail haul for any such route and destination as the traffic followed year before last. A connecting link of the Southern Pacific Railroad between Marys- ville on its line on the east side and its line on the west side of the Sacramento Valley is across the Sacramento River at Knights Landing or Grafton (Knights Landing is the railroad name and Grafton the post-office name), 34 miles above Sacramento City and 13 miles above the mouth of the Feather River, measured on the Sacramento River. There is also a branch of the Southern Pacific from Marysville to Oroville. The main line of the Western Pacific mentioned above passes through both Oroville and Marysville on its route to Sacra- mento from crossing the Sierras. By substituting the transfer point at Knights Landing for the transfer point at Sacramento, if the West- ern Pacific took over the haul at Marysville from the Southern Pacific at that point, and transfer arrangements do exist, there would be sub- stituted for a haul of 40 miles on the trunk line of the Western Pacific a haul of 28 miles on a subsidiary line of the Southern Pacific from Knights Landing. In preliminary discussion of this proposal the objection was raised that traffic must originate at a terminal where the cars to carry it are available, due to the fact that they come there with other freight which is then unloaded, and that there was nothing at Knights Land- ing to fulfill this requirement; but the situation here is such that the 2048 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. empties have to be brought west anyhow, and they could be sent to Knights Landing with the same saving in haul that they would have full in returning, as contrasted with Sacramento and considerablv more if Port Costa and other bay points are considered Suitable wharves, warehouses, grain elevators, spur tracks, and mechanical conveyors, etc., should be installed on both sides of the river to care for #. transfer of the grain from the barges to the cars expeditiously and economically. is cross connecting line of the Southern Pacific has very little present use, the only passenger traffic being two local motor cars each way daily, and a single short train each way each day with but little freight. On the river Knights Landing is the downstream end of a section where originates probably the greatest proportion of the grain movement of the Sacramento River. ile there is recognized the difficulty of the supply of labor for handling in a town the size of Knights Landing, as contrasted with a place where suitable labor is generally available, the present condi- tions indicate that special arrangements will have to be made even in Sacramento City. It also happens that there is always available at Knights Landing a large amount of labor of the tramp type. The only other point above Sacramento where the river is crossed by rail is at Meridian. This is an interurban electric line and the roadbed and structures are not suitable for carrying full weight traffic. The Southern Pacific has a line along the west side of the river for part of its distance on which the traffic has never been developed, whose employment would involve a considerable circuitous haul to get across the river and would fail to utilize to the best advantage the boat traffic as relief to the rail. Possibly it should have been mentioned that despite the light traffic existing at the Knights Landing cut-off line the roadbed is apparently of standard construction and available for handling the heaviest traffic. It should be noted that the barges generally move back upstream empty during the grain movement, so there is no question of their having to make the whole trip to get a return load. It is apparently desirable that some such terminal as outlined above be developed at this point and that steps be taken toward routing this grain traffic from Grafton or Knights Landing via Southern Pacific to Marysville, thence via Western Pacific across the Sierras. The Southern Pacific line from Marysville to Oroville is a little longer than that over the Western Pacific, and Marysville is the more natural place of exchange, although the exchange might be made also at Oroville if deemed advantageous, the Southern Pacific carrying the traffic to that place. º Suggested improvements:-The terminal situation at Sacramento is very unfavorable for further development. Only the river front is available for wharves and warehouses, the principal ones being on the east or city side. However, these are very much cramped and crowded by the city, streets, and railroads paralleling the river. Recently tendencies of expansion to the west side of the river have developed in spite of unfavorable depth of water on that side of the river, and its being not only opposite from the city, but in a different county, with the incidental disadvantages of possibility of lack of unity in municipal handling of harbor charges, movements, etc., separate taxes, licenses, and political relations. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2049 The Southern Pacific Railroad Co. owns considerable of the water- front property above M Street bridge. Part of it is occupied by its Wharves, warehouses, and freight yards, which are used principally for local distribution and collection of purely rail freight that could. as well or better be in some other locality than along the river front between it and the heart of the business section of the city. The river front being limited and congested, it should be utilized and reserved exclusively for commerce which uses the river. Arrange- ments should be made with the Southern Pacific Railroad Co. to move its freight yard and warehouses to another part of the city away from the river. The property along the river thus vacated should be improved as river terminals by the city, county, or State. As a first unit to be constructed, it is recommended that a reinforced concrete wharf and warehouse 2,000 feet by 90 feet, with ample and suitable mechanical appliances for handling freight, be constructed above M Street. A belt-line railroad should connect all railroads and principal wharves, and paved streets should be extended to wharves for the rapid and economical transfer of freight. Stockton is on the southeast edge of the great delta country of the Sacramento, San Joaquin, and Mokelumne Rivers, and most of the farm products of this wonderfully fertile delta are brought to Stock- ton, and also much grain from the upper rivers. Nearly all of the boats that operate in these delta streams and channels tie up at Stockton. The greatest distance by water of any point in the delta from Stockton is 45 miles. The physical conditions at Stockton are favorable to further expan- sion of the terminal situation there. Besides Stockton Channel, which extends well toward the center of the city, there are several other channels branching from the main channel. - Due to the smaller fluctuation of the water surface, the height of the levees and consequently of the wharves is considerably less than required at Sacramento and along the Sacramento River. The need of mechanical appliances for loading and unloading freight has there- fore been less apparent here than i. the Sacramento. Neverthe- less there is a decided need of suitable freight conveyors to overcome labor shortage and to facilitate the dispatch of the boats and barges. It is suggested that the peninsula between Stockton Channel and McLeod Lake should be made into a system of warehouses and slips aggregating at least 2,000 feet of wharf front. At each of the landings at Butte City, Princeton, Colusa, and Grimes, on the Sacramento River, it is recommended that a wharf with 500 feet of frontage and a warehouse 320 by 100 feet be con- structed and maintained by the city, county, or State. Suitable spur line and highway connection should be extended to wharf and warehouse, and some simple kind of portable mechanical power appliances should be installed for transferring freight between boats and warehouse, similar to elevators used in stacking grain for ware- houses. Large tracts of land have been reclaimed in these neighbor- hoods within the last few years, resulting in great developments and improvements. This has been brought about through large holdings in the hands of capitalists reclaiming the land in large tracts. As long as the land was held in large holdings, the owners 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—129 2050 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. were in a position to satisfactorily care for the adequacy of their river terminals, but now that there is already in course a definite policy of selling off this land into small farms, there arises the neces- sity of calling attention to the need of community-owned river terminals to protect the interests of the small farmer. A wharf with 500 feet of frontage and a warehouse 150 by 50 feet. should be constructed and maintained by the county or State at Walnut Grove on the Sacramento River. Suitable spur line and highway connection should be extended to wharf and warehouse and some simple kind of portable mechanical power appliances installed for transferring freight between boats and warehouse, similar to elevators used in stacking grain for warehouses. A large farming territory is tributary to Walnut Grove and seeks to take advantage of better freight rates and more frequent boats on the Sacramento River. To protect the farmers who do not own river- front property at Walnut Grove from the possibility of unjust, discriminating tolls it is recommended that a publicly owned wharf and warehouse be constructed and maintained. A wharf with 500 feet of frontage and a warehouse 150 by 100 feet should be constructed and maintained by the city at Rio Vista on the Sacramento River. No railroad connection is available, but the city's paved streets should be extended to wharf and warehouse. Some simple kind of portable mechanical power appliances should be installed for tº: freight between boats and warehouse, similar to elevators used in stacking grain for warehouses. Rio Vista. is a thriving town entirely dependent upon its highways and the Sacramento River for means of transportation. Publicly owned terminal is recommended to prevent unjust, discriminating tolls. A wharf with 500 feet frontage and a warehouse 500 by 100 feet should be constructed and maintained by the city at Antioch on the San Joaquin River. Suitable spur-line connection with the railroads should be made and the city's paved streets should be extended to wharf and warehouse. Some simple kind of portable mechanical power appliances, similar to elevators used in stacking grain for warehouses, should be installed for transferring freight between boats and warehouse. Antioch is near the junction of the San Joaquin River with the Sacramento River and is larger than any other town on either stream below Sacramento and Stockton. It is on the main line of the Southern Pacific and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroads, both transcontinental lines. A report published in House Document No. 986, Sixty-fifth Congress, second session, recommends a channel 20 feet deep from the sea to Antioch, which will permit ocean and river navigation to meet there unless the former is further extended upstream. Special feature of wharf construction suggested.—On the Sacramento River above Rio Vista high levees are needed for flood protection during the flood season, and consequently it is necessary to have the floors of the warehouses and wharves iº the high-water level. During the low-water season, which lasts about seven months each year, all freight unloaded from boats has to be raised to the floor of this high wharf, which, during this low-water season, is from 25 to 35 feet above the water surface. It is suggested that a lower platform constructed under the main floor. so as to offer minimum obstruction WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2051 to the flow of flood waters, would not be objectionable and could be used to advantage at wharves where a transfer of freight from one boat to another is made or where there is no mechanical arrange- ment for lifting the freight expeditiously. Access to and from this lower platform could be had from the land side by inclined roadways leading down from top of levee to both ends of wharf. Special type of conveyor suggested.—On page 448 of the issue of the Engineering News-Record of March 7, 1918, and again on page 30 of the issue of January 2, 1919, is described a conveyor for handling freight from river boats to railroad cars that seems to be adaptable to the conditions here, especially to those conditions on the Sacra- mento River where the fluctuation of the water surface is so great that high wharves are necessary with a resultant high lift for all freight during the low-water season, which lasts throughout the greater part of the year. As described in this article, it is a portable conveyor designed especially for handling package freight. It consists . a travelin carriage with three chain conveyors. The first section is mounte on a 45-foot frame pivoted to the carriage and suspended from a boom, so that its outer end can be raised and lowered to suit the deck elevation of boats and barges. In the rear of this is a horizontal section 20 feet long extending through the carriage. The third is an adjustable section 17 feet long which handles freight into and out of railway cars. This machine is operated by a 15-horsepower electric motor. Its conveyors run at 80 feet per minute and can handle packages up to 400 pounds in weight. ă WATER TERMINALS AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

FIRST DISTRICT, PORTLAND, OREG. COL. GEORGE A. ZINN, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. COQUILLE RIVER, OREG. General description.—The Coquille River empties into the Pacific Ocean at Bandon, Oreg., about 225 miles south of the mouth of the Columbia River and 420 miles north of San Francisco Bay, Calif. The tidal reach extends about 2 miles up the North and South Forks, or 38 miles from the entrance. Existing project for improvement.—This provides for two rubble- stone jetties at the mouth (completed in 1908); for a channel 12 to 13 feet deep and 200 feet wide to Bandon, 1 mile from the bar; for a channel 10 feet deep and 100 feet wide between Bandon and Riverton, 16 miles; and thence 9 feet deep and 100 feet wide to º 9 miles; and for snagging from Bandon to North Fork, 36 miles. General character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce of this waterway consists mainly of lumber products, its watershed being heavily timbered. The balance of the water-borne commodities is comprised of farm and dairy produce and miscellaneous mer- chandise. In 1918 the total water-borne commerce of the river amounted to 76,277 short tons. The outbound ocean freight amounted to 70,896 short tons, and the inbound amounted to 5,381 short tons of miscellaneous freight. Size and type of vessels used.—Seagoing vessels of the Pacific coast steam schooner type, with a carrying capacity of 600,000 feet b. m. of lumber, and drawing about 13 feet loaded, carry the sea-borne commerce. The river traffic is carried by small stern-wheel steamers and rºllers and by gasoline boats, the draft of which is from 3 to 5 feet. Eristing terminal facilities.—At Bandon, the principal town on the river, situated just inside the entrance, there are a number of privately owned wharves having a total frontage of some 1,300 feet, but the principal wharves here are open to all water carriers upon payment of certain charges, usually 20 cents per ton for freight loaded or unloaded, in addition to which there are dockage charges of $2 to $5 per day, according to size of vessel. No mechanical appliances exist for handling freight. There is no publicly owned water front- age other than one or two street ends, and these are only suitable for small boat landings, but there exists a considerable extent of privately owned, unimproved water frontage that could be pur- chased and made available for public use. 2093 2094 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Between Bandon and Coquille, a distance of 25 miles, there are no wharves of any commercial importance other than at the several sawmills which are located at and a short distance above Bandon. These mills have wharves privately owned and operated, where vessels call for lumber cargoes. These wharves are extensive enough to store one or more cargoes of lumber. Ship's tackle is used ex- clusively, no mechanical appliances existing on the wharves. These terminals are not suited for other than the lumber trade and are as a rule so used exclusively, but no charge is made for incidental use by river craft. The other terminals consist of numerous Small landings, usually floats, and some small coal bunkers, at Riverton and vicinity. Such facilities as exist are used by all boats plying the stream and there are no charges. At Coquille, the county seat, there is a publicly owned frontage of about 500 feet, 236 feet of which is occupied by three small wharves. Ocean vessels can reach these wharves, but as a rule do not, their cargoes originating at the mills below. A portion of the public wharf is free, except a dockage charge of $2.50 per month for river craft regularly using it, but the balance of the wharf is leased to private parties and contains a warehouse, being built to accommo- date ocean traffic. It is open to all on equal terms, the usual charge being 25 cents per ton for ocean freight and 35 cents for river freight. There are several small wharves of minor importance, all privately owned, one being provided with an incline and hoist that can transfer heavy freight from the nearby railway siding, and for this a charge of 35 cents per ton is made. . No mechanical appliances exist, aside from the hoist above noted, built for the special purpose named. Between Coquille and Myrtle Point, the head of navigation, the stream is used only by light-draft river boats, and the terminals consist of numerous small float landings that are used by all craft free of charge. In general, it may be stated that present facilities are adequate to meet existing needs, but it would appear desirable in view of the rowing commercial importance of the port that a publicly owned wharf of at least 500 feet frontage be built at Bandon, and that it be equipped with mechanical means for handling heavy pieces of freight, and that at Coquille physical connection be made between the railway and the present public wharf, and the latter rearranged and equipped with mechanical means for transfer of heavy freight between rail and boat. There is no railroad in the river valley below Coquille. COOS BAY, OREG. General description.—Coos Bay is an indentation of the Pacific coast, in Oregon, about 200 miles south of the mouth of Columbia River. It is about 13 miles in length by 1 mile wide, and includes about 1,000 acres of anchorage with a depth of not less than 18 feet at mean lowe” low water. Eristing project for improvement.—This provides for two rubble- stone jetties at the ocean entrance; for such additional depth on the ocean bar as can be obtained and maintained by the operation of seagoing hydraulic dredge without further jetty construction; and for a channel between the bar and Smiths Mill, 13 miles, 22 feet WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2095 deep, generally 200 feet wide, increased to 300 feet in front of Marsh- field and North Bend. General character and extent of commerce.—The water borne com- merce of this waterway, in 1918, amounted to 321,801 short tons, the bulk of which consisted of lumber products, as the tributary area is heavily timbered and the remainder mainly coal, farm, and dairy produce, and miscellaneous merchandise. The inbound commerce amounted to 18,049 short tons of miscellaneous freight. The out- bound commerce was 303,752 short tons. The ocean-borne com- merce has decreased considerably during the past year, on account of the shutting down of the principal sawmill on the bay. Size and type of vessels used.--Seagoing vessels of any type not exceeding 20 feet draft may ordinarily navigate the bay and bar entrance safely. Intra bay traffic is mostly carried by small gaso- line boats, and steamers whose draft does not exceed about 5 feet. Eristing terminal facilities.—At North Bend, 8 miles from the entrance, there is a public wharf having about 1,000 feet frontage on the channel. It is owned by the city and its use is open to all on equal terms. There is a dockage charge of $2.50 and a warehouse charge of 20 cents per ton. Incidental use of the wharf, exclusive of warehouse, is 5 cents per ton. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight, ships tackle and hand trucks being u. exclu- sively. There are two large sawmill wharves here that are privately owned and operated, where vessels call for lumber cargoes, the latter being handled with ships tackle, there, being no mechanical appli- ances on the wharves for handling freight. There are no charges against vessels calling at these wharves, but the latter are not so situated or built as to be readily used as terminal facilities for gen- eral cargoes. There are also some smaller wharves, but they are all privately owned and operated in connection with various industries. At Marshfield, about 12 miles above the entrance, and near the head of the bay, the only public wharf is a small one of 50 feet front, but it could be extended along the publicly owned frontage to a dis- tance of 325 feet. Its use is free but it is too small to accommodate ocean traffic. A similar, small, free, public wharf exists at East Marshfield, on the east side of the bay opposite Marshfield. Water terminals open to all, on equal terms, are as follows: Ocean dock, with 250 feet front, privately owned and operated, charges 20 cents per ton in addition to dockage charge of $5. There are two other privately owned wharves having a combined frontage on the channel of over 1,000 feet. Each has warehouse in connection and each is open to all ocean carriers on equal terms, which consist of a dockage * of about $4 in addition to 20 cents * ton for freight passing over the wharf. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight. The Southern Pacific Railroad Co. owns a wharf having 500 feet frontage on the channel, open to all carriers on equal terms, which consist of a dockage fee of $4 and 20 cents per ton for freight, but it is not suitably situated for handling general cargo. It has track connection, but no mechanical appliances for handling freight. This company also has a coal bunker wharf in the vicinity, operated in connection with their own coal mines. It has trackage connec- tion, but no mechanical appliances, the coal flowing by gravity through chutes into the vessel's hold. . The C. A. Smith Lumber Co. has a privately owned and operated wharf having a frontage of over 2096 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 1,000 feet on the channel. It is operated in connection with their sawmill, the latter being one of the largest on the coast. This wharf is equipped with electrically operated gantry cranes, and the lumber cargoes are made up of compact units by means of special iron frames or slings which are shipped with the unit and returned after the cargo is unloaded. No cost data are available, as to this method of hand- ling lumber, but it is admittedly the cheapest and most efficient in use on the Pacific coast, for handling this class of freight. Exclu- sive of the cranes, the wharf is open to all carriers on equal terms, the rate being 20 cents per ton, and $4 dockage fee. There are numerous other smaller wharves on the bay, but all are privately owned and operated in connection with various industries. Owners of small vessels plying the bay waters make arrangements with these various owners for dockage rights for their boats, and as a rule the rates are reasonable and there are no monopolistic features. Except in the above-noted cases of the wharf and coal bunkers of the Southern Pacific Co., none of the present wharves have track connection, but the railway line between North Bend and Marshfield closely parallels the water front and it would be a comparatively easy matter to make such connection with any of the principal wharves, when conditions warrant the expense. There is no pro- rating of freight charges between rail and water lines at present, its advantage not being apparent under present conditions, While present facilities adequately meet existing needs and there are no oppressive conditions, it would appear that in view of the rapidly growing commercial importance of the bay, there should be constructed in the near future a public wharf of about 200 feet front at Empire, where vessels could moor while waiting to cross out over the bar. Also a public wharf of about 1,000 feet front should be built at Marshfield. Each should be equipped with mechanical appliances for handling heavy articles of freight, and track connection ºl. be made with both the North Bend and Marshfield public WIla, I'VeS. COOS RIVER, OREG. General description.—The Coos River empties into Coos Bay nearl opposite Marshfield, Oreg. The tidal reach extends up the Nort and South Forks about 9 miles, or 14 miles from the mouth. Existing project for improvement.—This provides for removing snags and bowlders from a channel 50 feet wide, from the mouth of the river to the head of navigation on the North and South Forks. This would include about 8% miles of each fork, and about 5% miles of the main river below the forks. General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce consists of farm and dairy produce and general merchandise and saw logs, the latter floated in rafts. In 1918 the traffic on this stream amounted to 23,414 short tons, of which about one-half was saw logs. The com- merce of the river has decreased considerably on account of the shutting down of the principal sawmill on Coos Bay, during the past year. tº Size and type of vessels used.—The commerce of the stream is car- ried by ºf stern-wheel and propeller steamers, and by gasoline boats, none of which, as a rule, draw over 5 feet. - H.

These consist of a small wharf belonging to a logging com- pany on the South Fork, about 3 miles above its mouth, and numerous small wharves or float landings, at the various ranches on both forks. The use of these terminals is free to all boats plying the stream. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight at any of the terminals. From the head of navigation on the North Fork a wagon road leads to the Umpqua Valley, and a small public landing is maintained here in keeping with the needs of the present traffic. The existing facilities are believed to be commensurate with the needs of the present commerce and the commerce of the near future. There are no wagon roads nor rail lines, except private logging roads, in the lower valley, and there is no need of publicly owned terminals, as freight and passengers can be landed at almost any of the ranches, as the river valley is very narrow. - SIUSLAW RIVER, OREG. General description.—The Siuslaw River empties into the Pacific Ocean through a low, shifting sand beach about 160 miles south of the mouth of the Columbia River, and 485 miles north of San Fran- cisco Bay, Calif. The tidal reach extends to Mapleton, 19 miles from the mouth. Existing project for improvement.—This provides for two mean high tide jº. jetties, 750 feet apart at their extremities, designed to secure a permanent depth of at least 8 feet at mean lower low water. There is no existing project for the improvement of the river, but a project for dredging the river has been recommended to Congress. }. character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of the region is mainly of lumber products, the remainder consisting of farm and dairy products, general merchandise, and salmon. The ocean- borne commerce for 1917 was 344 short tons. There is no record of any commerce across the ocean bar for 1918. In 1914 the commerce amounted to 37,200 short tons, and the decrease of ocean commerce is due to the railroad along the river and the depressed condition of the lumber market. • Size and type of vessels used.—Seagoing vessels of the small steam- schooner type, drawing not over 14 feet, may ordinarily enter the stream at high tide, and these, and also gasoline seagoing boats of about 10-foot draft, carry the sea-borne commerce. The river com- merce is carried almost entirely by gasoline boats drawing not over 5 feet. - f Eristing terminal facilities.—Florence, a town of 400, about 4 miles from the ocean, has about 1,000 feet front of wharfage. There is a small public wharf of 60 feet frontage, occupying a street, and whose use is free to all. The remainder of the wharfage is privately owned and operated in connection with various industries, but about one-half the latter frontage is open to all vessels on equal terms, usually at a rate of 25 cents per ton for freight. At Gienada, a small village on the south bank, opposite Florence, there is a public whalf of 60 feet front whose free use amply serves the small commerce of the little community. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—132 2098 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. At Cushman, a small village 7 miles from the ocean, there is about 800 feet frontage of wharves, all privately owned and operated in connection with lumber and other industries, but about 70 feet of this is available for public use free of any charge. At Mapleton, a small village at the head of navigation, 19 miles from the ocean, there are wharves aggregating a total frontage of 170 feet, all privately owned, but a portion of this, sufficient to meet all needs, is open to all on equal terms, usually 25 cents per ton. There are some other small and unimportant wharves on the stream, but all are privately owned and only suitable for private use in connection with various industries. There are no mechanical appliances at any of the terminals on this waterway. The existing facilities are ample to meet present needs, but with a revival of water-borne commerce it would be desirable that a public wharf of about 500 feet front should be built at Florence, which is at present the principal town on the river, though it is possible the chief commercial center may develop in the vicinity of Cushman, the latter being situated on the railway, in which event the public wha:f should be built there. The Southern Pacific Co.'s line of railway follows the upper 1 eaches of the stream down to Cushman, crosses the river and turns south, and parallels the coast to Coos Bay, so that there is no railroad on the river below that point. Not any of the present water terminals have trackage connection with the railway, and the necessity therefor must be dictated by future commercial development. YAQUINA BAY AND RIVER, OREG. General description.—The Yaquina River is an indentation in the Oregon coast about 115 miles south of the mouth of Columbia River and 530 miles north of San Francisco Bay, Calif. The tidal 1 each extends 5 miles above Elk City, above which point the river is but a Small mountain stream. Eristing project for improvement.—This provides for two rubble- stone jetties at the entrance, the removal of subaqueous rock in the entrance, an 18-foot channel to Yaquina, at the head of the bay, and for a channel 10 feet deep and 100 feet wide in Yaquina River between Yaquina and Toledo. General character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce of the waterway consists principally of lumber, but this has heretofore been but little developed. The balance of the commerce is made u of farm and dairy produce, general merchandise, and fish. The rail- way has in 1ecent years carried the bulk of the comme ce, so that in the year 1917 only 1,150 tons crossed the bar. There is no record of the ocean-borne commerce for the year 1918. The decrease in the ocean-borne commerce is partly due to the depressed condition of the lumber market. Size and type of vessels used.—Seagoing vessels of the Pacific coast steam schooner type, drawing about 14 feet, can enter the bay and reach Toledo, and these carry out the lumber cargoes. Seagoing gasoline boats of about 10 feet draft also ply to the locality. Gaso- line boats of about 5 feet draft handle the bay and river ti affic. Existing terminal facilities.—At Newport, a summer resort town on the north side of the bay, and just inside the entrance, there is a WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2099 public wharf of 140 feet frontage on the channel, which amply serves the present needs of the community. The use of the wharf is open to all on equal terms, a merely nominal charge being made. There is also a small free public ferry landing opposite Newport, on the south side of the bay, used for transferring passengers and freight to south beach points. At Yaquina, the terminus of the Southern Pacific Railway, there is a wharf having a frontage of about 100 feet. It is owned by the railway, but is open to all carriers on equal terms as to general use, but the railway has a special agreement with a small steamer for carrying passengers and freight between here and Newport. At Toledo there are two public wharves, with a total frontage of 355 feet, whose use is open to all carriers on equal terms, and only nominal charges are made. There are no terminals of any note above Toledo, the stream bein used, as a rule, only by the small craft belonging to ranchers ...i fishermen. In addition to the above, there are other publicly or privately owned terminals used solely for special purposes, and not suitable for general use by reason of their location, among which may be named the following: A wharf at Oysterville, having track connection and derrick hoist, owned and used by a contractor in connection with the transfer of stone from railway cars to barges for transportation to south jetty. Not any of the above-mentioned terminals have any mechanical appliances for handling freight. The south jetty wharf, owned by the ports of Newport and Toledo, equipped with derrick hoist for transferring stone for use in con- structing the south jetty. A wharf and ferry slip on the south side of the bay, at King Slough, the terminus of a logging railway to the south beach district, and a similar wharf and ferry slip on the north side, just below Yaquina. These were built by the W. Spruce Co. for the Spruce Production Division of the Army, in connection with the war-time activities of the latter, in production of spruce lumber, but they will probably pass to private ownership in the near future and be used in lumbering operations. - There is no railway at Newport. Yaquina is the terminus of the railroad line, and here the tracks lead directly to the company’s wharf. The locality is but a small village and there would appear to be no necessity for a publicly owned terminal at this time, as water carriers are not subjected to any oppressive requirements. The public wharves at Toledo have no track connections, but the railway is only a short distance away and direct connection to the public water terminal could easily be made when conditions warrant the expense, the necessity for which is not apparent at this time. In general, it may be stated that the terminal facilities now existing on this waterway are reasonably commensurate with present needs, and that there are no oppressive or monopolistic features. A large increase in ocean-borne commerce is confidently looked for in the near future, owing to development of the timber resources of the region, but this is not a class of cargo passing through publicly owned or controlled terminals, being as a rule loaded direct from the mills to vessels. 2100 WATER TERMINAT, AND THANSFER FACILITIES. TILLAMOOK BAY AND BAR, OREG. General description.—Tillamook Bay is an indentation of the Oregon coast, about 50 miles south of the mouth of Columbia River. It is about 6 miles long and 3 miles wide and has a tidal area of about 13 square miles. e Existing project for improvement.—This provides for a jetty on the north side of the entrance to the bay, a channel 16 feet deep at mean lower low water, and 200 feet from the entrance to Bay City, a distance of about 4% miles, and a channel 9 feet deep at mean high tide from Bay City to Tillamook City, a distance of 7% miles. General character and eatent of commerce.—The bay is in a heavily timbered region and lumber comprises the bulk of the products of the locality, the remainder consisting of farm and dairy produce and general merchandise. Nearly all of the commerce of the region is now carried by rail. In 1917 the ocean-borne commerce amounted to only 1,054 tons. There is no record of ocean-borne commerce for the year 1918. The decrease in ocean-borne commerce is due to the construction of the railroad and to the depressed condition of the lumber market. - Size and type of vessels used.—Seagoing vessels of the Pacific coast steam schooner type or sailing vessels, drawing 14 feet, may safel enter the bay and ascend to Bay City. Between Bay City and Tilla- mook 10 feet draft can be carried on the high tide. Intrabay traffic is mostly handled by small gasoline boats drawing about 5 feet. Existing terminal facilities.—At Garibaldi, a small village just inside the entrance, there is a small wharf and float landing of about 40 feet frontage. This is a transfer point for rail passengers bound for the summer resort of Bay Ocean on the south side of the bay, and it is but little used for any other purpose, being suitable only for the small vessels engaged in this traffic. It is privately owned and not open to craft desiring to compete with the owners' boats, but no charge is made for incidental use. by other boats. At Bay Ocean, a summer resort on the south spit, there is a pri- vately owned wharf of about 200 feet front, on a dredged channel whose depth is only suitable for small craft of about 5 feet draft. It is not open to boats competing for the passenger traffic to Gari- baldi, but no charge is as a rule made to boats plying to other bay points. , At Bay City, a town of about 300 population, on the railway line, about 4 miles above the entrance, there is a small public wharf of about 60 feet front on about 8 feet of water. Its use is free to all. There are three other small wharves privately owned by canneries or fish houses, and are used by small fishing boats delivering their catch. They are wholly unsuited for other traffic. At Tillamook, a town of about 2,000 population, situated at the head of navigation on Hoquarten Slough, 12 miles from the ocean, there are the following terminals: The Lamb Wharf of about 230 feet front, which has a good-sized warehouse and is used by ocean vessels. It is º owned, but open to all carriers on equal terms, the usual charge being 25 cents per ton, and no dockage fees. There are a number of other small wharves with an aggregate front- age of about 800 feet on a depth of water of 6 to 8 feet. All are privately owned and used in connection with various industries. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2101 They are also used by various small craft doing an independent business, who usually pay a flat monthly rate mutually agreed upon, there being no standard charges for such privileges, but as a rule no excessive rates are demanded. There are no mechanical appliances for handling freight at any of the water terminals above mentioned. They are all accessible from city streets or roads. No direct connection exists between any of the terminals, but the railway siding parallels the water front along Front Street at Tillamook, and such connection could easily be made should conditions warrant. . At Bay City the railway has a short spur extending over the tide flats, and freight is sometimes transferred here from cars to barges. There is a small public wharf which can be extended when occasion demands. At Tillamook the title of much of the best frontage is still vested in the United States. This is due to erroneous land office maps, but this same frontage is occupied by numerous small, privately owned wharves, whose owners hold their locations by squatters’ right only. The necessary legislation to dedicate this strip of front- age to public use should be made in the near future, providing it does not now exist, which would make available sufficient area to construct a public terminal large enough to meet any looked-for future need of the port, and direct tº ack connection could easily be made also. It would appear to be a pertinent subject to engage the attention of local port authorities, now that considerable activity in new lumbering industries is in evidence on the lower bay, and which will no doubt result in a revival of water-borne commerce in the near future. Considering present needs only, the existing facilities may be said to be adequate, and no oppressive conditions exist. There is no prorating of carrying charges between rail and water carriers, except in the case of rail passengers bound for Bay Ocean. NEHALEM BAY, OREG. General description.—Nehalem Bay is an indentation of the Oregon coast, about 45 miles south of the mouth of Columbia River. It is the estuary of Nehalem River, has a length of about 4% miles, and is from one-third to 1 mile wide, and has a tidal area of 5% square miles. The tidal reach extends up the river to a point about 10 miles from the entrance. Evisting project for improvement.—This provides for two high-tide rubblestone jetties at the entrance to the bay, designed to secure a permanent depth of at least 8 feet at mean lower low water. No improvement work has been done in the river, and there is no existing project for the river. General character and extent of commerce.—The tributary region being very heavily timbered, lumber comprises the bulk of the commerce, the remainder being made up of farm and dairy products, general merchandise, and machinery. The water-borne commerce of the river for 1917 amounted to 63,677 tons, scarcely any of which was callied over the bar, due largely to the construction of the railroad to Tillamook and to the depressed condition of the lumber market. 2102 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Size and type of vessels used.—Seagoing gasoline vessels and steamers of the Pacific coast steam schooner type, and drawing not over 12 feet, may ordinarily enter the river without difficulty. The river traffic is carried by small gasoline boats of not over 5 feet draft. Existing terminal facilities.—At Brighton, on the south bank, about one-half mile above the entrance, there is a wharf of about 400 feet front, and a depth of water of 10 feet alongside. It is rivately owned, and used exclusively in connection with the lumber- ing industry of the owners, who, however, make no charge for inci- dental use by the general public. At Wheeler, on the south bank, 3% miles above the entrance, there is a small, free, public wharf of 60 feet frontage, occupying a street end. In addition there is a total frontage of about 800 feet of privately owned wharves used exclusively in connection with the lumbering or fishing industry of the owners. At Nehalem, on the north bank, about 7 miles above the entrance, the town owns a small wharf of 50 feet front, on a street end. Its use is free to all. In addition there is a total frontage of about 350 feet of privately owned wharves, including the locality known as Old Town, about a mile upstream. All of the latter are used exclu- sively by their owners in connection with lumbering, fishing, or other activities. There is a shoal in the river between Nehalem and Wheeler, on which account vessels of only 9 feet draft may ascend to Nehalem, and then only on high tide, but there is sufficient water along any of the above wharves to accommodate any craft that can reach the locality. - None of the terminals on this waterway have any mechanical appliances for handling freight, nor have any of them, except the south jetty wharf, any track connections. The Southern Pacific Railroad parallels the river and bay from Wheeler to the mouth, and while there are a number of industrial spurs and sidings at Wheeler and Brighton, none extend to the water front, except in one instance at Wheeler, where saw logs are dumped from railway cars directly into the river, facilities being provided for this purpose, which are not adapted to any other use. In most cases, however, these industrial tracks could be extended to the wharf frontage if conditions should warrant it. There is no publicly owned frontage, other than street ends, but there is unoccupied frontage at all of the towns that could be acquired at reasonable rates. The nature of the tonnage originating in this locality, being mostly lumber, is such that public terminals are not needed to handle it, being loaded directly from the mill wharves. With any considerable increase in water-borne traffic, however, the present small public wharves at Wheeler and Nehalem would need to be extended to at least double their present frontage, in order to care for incoming or outgoing general cargo, which is not likely to ever reach large proportions on this waterway. - At Brighton there is no public frontage or wharf at present, and there is need of a small terminal of about 50 feet front, mostly to care for passenger traffic, but excepting this latter case, the existing terminals on the waterway may be said to be adequate to meet present needs of water-borne commerce, and there are no objection- able discriminations or extortionate charges or conditions. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2103 COLUMBIA RIVER FROM VANCOUVER, WASH., TO THE MOUTH OF THE SNAECE RIVER'. General description of river.—The Columbia River forms a part of the boundary line between the States of Washington and Oregon and empties into the Pacific Ocean. From the international boundary to Priest Rapids, 342 miles, the river is a series of rapids and pools, with some long stretches of navigable water. At Priest Rapids the river is not navigable for about 11% miles. From the foot of Priest Rapids to Celilo Falls, 197 miles, the river has an average fall of 1.3 feet per mile, and there are a number of rapids in the stretch below the mouth of the Snake River that have swift currents and are difficult to navi- gate. The controlling depth in this stretch of river is about 4% feet. From Celilo to The Dalles the river is obstructed for about 12 miles by falls and rapids and has a total fall of 81 feet, which has been over- come by The Dalles-Celilo Canal. The canal is 8% miles long, has 5 locks, with a total lift of 81 feet, and was opened to navigation May 5, 1915. From The Dalles to the head of the Cascade Rapids, 41% miles, the river has a total fall of about 2% feet, and has a minimum depth of about 12 feet at low water. From the head of the Cascades Rapids to Bonneville, a distance of about 4% miles, the river has a fall of about 38 feet, with a fall of 24 feet in the main rapids at the head of this stretch. The main rapids have been overcome by the Cascades Canal, which is 3,000 feet in length, has two locks, with a combined total lift of 24 feet, and was opened to navigation November 5, 1896. Bonneville, Oreg., 141 miles from the Pacific Ocean, is the head of tide, and from Bonneville to Vancouver, 39 miles, the river has a minimum channel depth of about 10 feet and is unobstructed, except by a few sand bars, 10 to 14 miles above Vancouver. Eristing project for improvement.—From Vancouver to Bonneville, a distance of 39 miles, no improvement work has ever been done, and this stretch is not covered by a project for improvement. There are no obstructions, except some sand bars, with a least depth of 10 feet at low water. From Bonneville to the head of Cascades Rapids (4% miles), the existing project covers the construction of the &º Canal (opened to navigation Nov. 5, 1896), and some open river work below the canal. The swift water limits navigation to boats of fairly high power, and practically prevents barge navigation at all stages. From the head of Cascades Rapids to the foot of Three-Mile Rapids (about 2 miles above The Dalles, Oreg.), no river improve- ment work has ever been done, and no project for improvement has as yet been submitted. The controlling depth is about 12 feet at extreme low water, and there are no obstructions in this stretch of river except a few isolated rocks. . From the foot of Three-Mile Rapids to the head of Celilo Falls (about 12 miles), the existing pro- ject includes The Dalles-Celilo Canal (opened to navigation May 5, 1915), and some open river work below the canal. . The practical completion of this project has made continuous navigation possible from the lower river to Priest Rapids in the Columbia River, and to Pittsburgh Landing on the Snake, a distance of 400 and 540 miles, respectively, from the Pacific Ocean. From the head of Celilo Falls to the mouth of the Snake River, a distance of 124 miles, the existing project provides for removing obstructing bowlders and ledges, and 2104 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. raking gravel shoals in order to provide safe navigation of such chan- nels as exist. The controlling depth over the shoals is 44 feet, and although the work already done has greatly lessened the danger to navigation, considerable more work than contemplated by the exist- ing project will be necessary to give satisfactory ... through the rapids between Celilo and the mouth of the Snake River. General character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of the Columbia, River above Vancouver consists principally of general merchandise and farm machinery upstream, and farm products and fruit downstream. Considerable paper and paper pulp is manufac- tured at Camas, about 14 miles above Vancouver, and is carried downstream. There is also some logging on the river below Hood River, to Vancouver. The relatively small quantity of lumber manufactured above Vancouver is all shipped by rail. The commerce through the Cascades Canal (43% miles above Van- couver) has averaged about 33,000 tons annually since the opening of the canal, November 5, 1896. The tonnage increased from 18,119 tons in 1898 to 54,953 tons in 1908. From the last-named year to 1918 the commerce averaged about 40,000 tons annually, but in 1918 it fell to 25,758 tons. The passenger traffic averaged about 62,000 passengers annually, with a maximum of 133,073 in 1906, and a minimum of 17,040 in 1918. The commerce for 1917 was 39,984 tons. The decrease in commerce for the year 1918 is due to the withdrawal of one of the boat lines which has for many years been operating on the river above Vancouver. On June 12, 1919, a new boat line established a weekly service between Portland and Lewiston, using one stern-wheel boat of about 200 tons capacity. Size and type of vessels used.—The steamboats operating on the Columbia River above Vancouver are of the 8.ii.; River stern- wheel type. There are a few small propeller boats on the river which operate to points below Bonneville, Oreg. The stern-wheel boats are from 140 to 160 feet in length and from 30 to 34 feet beam, with a depth of hold of from 5 to 7 feet. The gross tonnage is from 300 to 500 tons. The maximum draft of these boats is about 4% feet. They have from 500 to 700 horsepower, and are equipped with horizontal engines and locomotive type boilers. This type of steam- boat, while excellent for swift waters, is not satisfactory for quick loading and discharge of cargo. All of the cargo is carried on the main deck, and on account of the arrangement of the machinery and boiler, the cargo space is small. When fully loaded, they carry from,200 to 230 tons of sacked wheat, on a draft of about 4% feet. The hold is used for carrying fuel. On account of the swift water in the rapids just below the Cascades Canal, barges are not used on the river above Bonneville, Oreg., and steamboats now in use on the river above Vancouver have difficulty in ascending these rapids at unfavorable stages of river, so that powerful towboats would have to be used in connection with barge navigation... Below Bonneville and above the head of the Cascades Rapids to The Dalles, barges could be used as the current in these two stretches of river probably does not exceed 5 miles per hour at any stage of river. g Terminal facilities.—There are no water terminals and no physical connection between the railroads and the river above Vancouver, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2105 Wash., except one spur track at Camas, Wash. The few existing wharves or landings are small, and were constructed for the con- venience of the owners, rather than for the general public. The Dalles, Oreg., a town of about 6,000 (about 84 miles above Vancouver), is the principal and largest community on the river above Vancouver. There are no wharves at The Dalles, but the town owns water front which it leases to the boat companies. There are two boat lines operating on the river as far as The Dalles (there has been no com- mercial navigation on the river above The Dalles since December, 1917). One line has a floating wharfboat and the other uses an inclined railway as a landing place. The Dalles is the county seat and principal town in Wasco County, and is the terminus of a branch railroad to a point about 41 miles south of the river. The principal products of the country tributary to The Dalles and the branch rail line are grain, wool, also a small quantity of fruit near The Dalles. The Dalles has two canneries which handle practically all of the garden truck in the vicinity. There are two flouring mills in the town, used for milling wheat en route to Portland. While practically all of the commerce of The Dalles is carried by the railroad, the local interests have for many years operated an independent boat line to Portland, Oreg., which had a beneficial effect on freight rates to The Dalles. Hood River, Oreg., a town of about 2,700, on the main line of the railroad, 63 miles above Vancouver, is the county seat and principal town of Hood River County. The products of the valley are fruits, mostly apples, which are shipped by rail to eastern points. It is understood that the commerce of the valley amounts to 70,000 tons annually, of which about 2,500 tons are water borne and the remainder carried by rail. ... There are no wharves at Hood River, and the only public boat landing is at the end of a roadway from the town to the river, owned by the town. The question of a municipal wharf has been discussed, but no definite action has been taken in the matter' Below the town of Hood River there are a few villages, and the entire population of the 63 miles of the river valley from Hood River to Vancouver will probably not exceed 5,000 inhabitants. No great river commerce can be developed on the river below The Dalyes, to Vancouver, because the country on both sides of the river is moun- tainous, and large areas are within the limits of the national forests. The productive areas are the narrow strips of lands between the mountain slopes and the river, and the valley lands along the tribu- taries of the river. The present water terminals between Vancouver and The Dalles are adequate for the existing commerce of the river and large or expensive water terminals would not be justified. It is believed, however, that provision should be made for a public wharf at Hood River, Oreg, at least one at The Dalles, and possibly one at Lyle, Wash., for the Klickitat Valley. At these places there is an oppor- tunity to make physical connection between the branch rail lines and the river and the communities are large enough to warrant a moderate expense for joint rail and water terminals. Above The Dalles to the Snake River, 124 miles, there are no wharves and no large communities on the river. Arlington, 53 miles above The Dalles, a town of about 400 inhabitants, and Uma- tilla, 99 miles above The Dalles, a town of about 300 inhabitants, are *. 2106 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. the two principal towns. Both own some water frontage, but no wharves have been built. There is no physical connection between the railroads and the river, and as the railroads closely parallel the high-water line on both sides of the river, all freight for the river must cross the railroads. There are no improved highways on this section of the river, and most of the wagon roads end at the railroad tracks, as the wheat warehouses are all on the land side of the railroads. The bulk of the products, nearly all grain and wool, are produced at some distance from the river, and are handled by the branch rail lines, so that joint rail and water terminals would be necessary to establish a water- borne commerce of any magnitude. As there are no large communi- ties on the river, the establishment of public river terminals would have to be undertaken by the counties with river frontage, or by port commissions created by the local interests. Large water transportation facilities would be required for a river commerce of any magnitude, as the average river haul of the bulk of the grain (tributary to this stretch of the river) to Portland would be about 180 miles. The strong current practically prohibits barge naviga- tion, and self-propelled boats of considerable power find it difficult to navigate some of the rapids in this stretch of river. For the entire stretch of river between Vancouver and Snake River, 224 miles, it may be said that there are no water terminals or wharves, and no physical connections between the railroads (which parallel both banks of the river), and the water. There are no manufactur- ing plants located on the river banks above Vancouver, and no manufacturing plants near the river above The Dalles. At and below The Dalles there are a few manufacturing plants and Sawmills, located on the railroads. The establishment of water terminals between The Dalles and Vancouver would not greatly increase the commerce of the river, because of the small productive area, and the mountainous nature of the country, so that a great increase in the commerce over the river below The Dalles must come from above The Dalles. Above The Dalles the products of the country are raised at some distance from the river, and require long wagon hauls over poor roads to the boat landings. The establishment of water terminals at favorable points on both sides of the river, with physical connec- tion with the railroads, and joint rail and water rates, would no doubt increase the river commerce, but would take a like quantity from the railroads which parallel both banks of the river. For points above Umatilla, Oreg., on the river, the terminal freight rates by rail are the same for Seattle, Portland, and Astoria, so that grain can be shipped by rail as cheaply to Astoria as to Portland, since the rate is the same. Boats, therefore, have to carry the grain consigned to Astoria 100 miles farther for the same rate as they now get to Portland in order to compete with the railroad. Since the opening of the Cascades Canal (Nov. 25, 1896), one and generally two boat companies operated as far as The Dalles, and there was an average of one boat daily through the canal. Upon the opening of The Dalles-Celilo Canal (3 miles above The Dalles) a boat line was established from Portland to points on the Columbia River as far as Pasco and Kennewick, and to Lewiston on the Snake River. This company suspended operations above The Dalles in WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2107 June, 1918. The suspension of the boat service above The Dalles was said to be due to lack of patronage, but the boat company had only two boats on the run, each making a round trip every six or seven days (round trip of 728 miles) between Portland and Lewiston. The infrequent service and the small carrying capacity of the boats (200 to 220 tons fully loaded) could not attract a large through business, nor even take care of a local business if it were offered. On June 12, 1919, a new boat line established a weekly service between Portland and Lewiston, on the Snake River, using one stern-wheel steamboat of about 200 tons' capacity. No great commerce can, however, be developed on the river above Vancouver, even with joint rail and water terminals, until the river between Bonneville and the foot of the Cascades Canal has been improved so that boats of low power can ascend the rapids below the canal. The current at the swiftest place is from 7 to 10 miles per hour at low water, and as high as 15 miles per hour at high water. At a moderate high-water stage the larger steamers can carry only 125 tons of freight through the rapids, or about one-half of their full capacity. The river above the Celilo Canal is also difficult to navi- gate and further improvement will be necessary for a large water- borne commerce. At the present time, however, any boat that can stem the rapids below the Cascades Canal will not find navigation more difficult on the Columbia River above Celilo. SNAKE RIVER, OREG., WASH., AND IDAHO. General description.—The Snake River is the largest tributary of the Columbia River, which it enters near Pasco, Wash., about 324 miles from the Pacific Ocean. From its mouth upstream there is a continuous stretch of navigable waters for a distance of about 235 miles (to a point about 19 miles above Pittsburgh Landing, the head of the existing project for improvement). Above this stretch the river flows through a deep, narrow canyon and is not navigable for about 25 miles (to Ballards Landing). Above this last-named point º a navigable stretch to the Boise River about 124 miles in ength. Existing project for improvement.—The existing project provides for general open-river improvement between the mouth and Pittsburgh Landing, a distance of 216 miles, with a view to securing a depth of 5 feet at low water from the mouth to Lewiston (142 miles), and the removal of the most dangerous rocks, reefs, and gravel bars from Lewiston to Pittsburgh Landing (74 miles). The existing project is about 78 per cent completed. The con-. trolling depth on the shoals between the mouth of the river and Riparia (68 miles) is 2 feet; between Riparia and Lewiston (74 miles), 2% feet; above Lewiston to Pittsburgh Landing (74 miles), about 2 feet. From the mouth to Riparia, on account of the crooked channels through the rapids, commercial navigation has been limited to stages above 3 feet on Lewiston gauge, which permits a 4-foot draft. This gives a navigation season of about 150 days (from February to August). General character and extent of commerce.—The principal article of commerce is the wheat raised between Riparia and Lewiston and transferred by boat to the railroad at the latter place. During the 2.108 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. past 25 years this has averaged about 38,000 tons annually. There has also been a small amount of through business. The commerce for the year 1917 carried on the river by railroad boats between Riparia and Lewiston is reported as 46,167 tons; that carried on the river by through boats, Portland to Lewiston, as 10,725 tons; and that above Lewiston (to Johnsons Bar, about 100 miles above Lewiston), as 787 tons of miscellaneous merchandise and wool, and 1,198 passengers. Size and type of vessels used.—The steamboats operating on the Snake River are of the Columbia River stern-wheel type. They are from 140 to 160 feet in length and from 30 to 34 feet beam, with a depth of hold of from 5 to 7 feet. They have from 500 to 700 horse- power, and are equipped with horizontal engines and locomotive type boilers. This type of steamboat, while an excellent type for swift waters, is not a satisfactory type for quick loading and dis- charge of cargo. All of the cargo is carried on the main deck, and on account of the arrangement of the machinery and boiler, the cargo space is small. When fully loaded they carry from 200 to 230 tons of sacked wheat, on a draft of about 4% feet. The hold is used for carrying fuel. Terminal facilities.—From the mouth of the Snake River to Riparia (68 miles), there are no wharves nor freight shelters, and all freight is handled on the river bank. The upstream commerce amounts to a few tons of general merchandise and the products of the country, mostly grain and some wool, are all shipped out by the railroads, of which there are two, one on each side of the river. There is no physical connection between the railroads and the water on this stretch of river. - Between Riparia and Lewiston (74 miles), there are no wharves of any description. Three spur tracks from the railroad on the right bank of the river extend to low water, one at Riparia, one at Wawawai, 44 miles above Riparia, and the third at a point 73 miles above Riparia, just below the mouth of the Clearwater River. These spur tracks are used to transfer the grain grown on the highlands along the left bank of the river where there is no railroad. The wheat is handled by railroad-owned steamboats, which do not do a general commercial business, and are in commission about five months annually. There are seven warehouses on the left bank of the river, with a total capacity of nearly 500,000 sacks of wheat. The ware- houses are located at the high water line of the river and the wheat, all in sacks, is transferred to the forward deck of the steamboats by . of chutes, and then stowed on deck by means of warehouse , trucks. Lewiston (142 miles from the mouth), the only town of importance. on the river, has, with its environs (including Clarkston and Asotin, Wash.), a population of about 15,000. The city owns 4,000 feet of water frontage, which it leases to a warehouse company. The only warehouse at Lewiston is located on this site and has a capacity of 40,000 sacks. A spur track from the railroad yards parallels the river and terminates at the warehouse. There is no wharf at the warehouse, but steamers can land close enough to reach the ware- house with gangplanks. There are no mechanical devices of any -kind for handling freight, and all freight is handled by warehouse trucks. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2109 Above Lewiston to the head of navigation, 234 miles above the mouth, there are no wharves, but there are five warehouses (the farthest 18 miles above Lewiston) with a total capacity of about 260,000 sacks, where wheat is stored awaiting shipment. There are no railroads above Lewiston and the grain is stored in these ware- houses until transferred by boat to the railroad at Lewiston. The existing terminal facilities are considered adequate for the present commerce and for the prospective commerce of the near future. Since the opening of The Dalles-Celilo Canal (May 5, 1915), which permitted through navigation from Portland, Oreg., to Priest Rapids, on the Columbia, and to the head of navigation on the Snake River, only one steamboat line has attempted to operate between Portland and Snake River points, and operated only during the high- water months, February to August, about 150 days annually. This company suspended operations on the Snake River in July, 1917, on account of lack of patronage, and navigation on the Snake River below Riparia was not resumed until June 12, 1919, when a new boat line established a weekly service between Portland, Oreg., and Lewis- ton, Idaho, using one boat of about 200 tons capacity. . The rail- road-owned boats, however, continue to operate on the river above Riparia, transferring wheat to the railroads on the right bank of the river. No great interest has been shown locally in the matter of water terminals, nor has any great effort been made by local interests to patronize the boat service between Portland and Lewiston, which was established upon the completion of The Dalles-Celilo Canal. No great commerce can be developed on the Snake River by the establishment of joint rail and water terminals until the Columbia and Snake Rivers have been improved to such an extent that there will be easy upstream navigation for boats of low power. The Snake River below Riparia is very difficult, and even hazardous, to navi- gate at low water, and commercial boats have used this stretch of river only during the spring freshet season, and for about 150 days annually. The low-water current in the rapids will probably average 6 miles per hour, and from 7 to 9 as a maximum, so that only rela- tively high-powered boats can ascend the Snake at even favorable stages. During the June freshets, at a moderate high-water stage, the large steamers can carry only 100 tons, or about one-half full cargo, through the rapids below Cascades Canal, on the Columbia River. Even with full downstream cargoes, a fleet of boats would be required for a large river commerce, for on account of the strong currents barges can not be used economically. With the type of water carriers now in use on the river, freight can be handled directly on the river bank, and in the case of local col – merce, often saves a long wagon haul over poor roads. On account of the fluctuation of the river during the freshet season, the cost of establishment and maintenance of wharves would be great as com- pared with the present commerce of the river.

COLUMBIA AND LOWER WILLAMETTE RIVERS BELOW WANCOUVER, WASH, AND PORTLAND, OREG. The ship channel from Portland to the sea follows the Willamette River for about 14 miles and the Columbia River for 99 miles. The existing project provides for a channel 300 feet wide and 30 feet deep at low water from Portland to the mouth of the Columbia River to be obtained and maintained by dredging and permanent works. This project is about 73 per cent completed, the work remaining to be done consisting of the construction of additional permanent works where necessary. At the mouth of the Columbia River the project provides for a depth of 40 feet at mean lower low water and a width of one-half mile. This project has been completed and the channel depth and width are available. At low stages there is a tidal variation of about 7% feet at the mouth of the Columbia, varying to about 2% feet at Portland. Freshet stages in the Columbia River average about 20 feet in height at Port- land and vary to practically nothing at the mouth of the river. These freshets reach their crest generally in June. They rise and subside slowly. Between Portland and the sea there are long stretches of the river, aggregating in length about 75 miles, with natural depths varying from 30 to 40 feet and upwards and of widths varying up to 2,000 feet and more. These stretches afford ample room for anchorage, when needed, without obstructing the fairway. The principal items of commerce on the lower Columbia River are, outbound—wheat, oats, flour, logs, lumber, paper, and miscellaneous merchandise; and inbound—crude oil and gasoline, cement, asphal- tum, sugar, salt, and general merchandise. Wessels engaged in this traffic vary in size from about 1,000 to 10,000 tons and include all classes from sailing vessels to large steamers. The oil tankers are at present the deepest draft vessels using the waterway. These draw from about 21 to 27 feet, but within recent years, mostly before the war upset trade routes, numerous vessels carrying grain and lumber and drawing from 26 to 31 feet have used this port. The exports and imports for 1918 were as follows: Foreign; imports 22,232 short tons, and exports 230,311 short tons; coastwise; imports, 1,125,953 short tons and exports 592,370 short tons. Portland and Astoria, Oreg., are the only terminals on the Colum- bia and Lower Willamette Rivers where there is any considerable transfer of freight between rail and water, or vice versa. There are several other points at which large sawmills are operated and from 2127 2128 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. which extensive shipments of lumber are made, but there are no ter- minal problems to be studied at these points, as there is no interchange of traffic and no charge to vessels loading. The traffic at these points is }. all outbound. he principal cities and towns on these waters are taken up in order going down, stream. Information regarding each locality is shown on the tabular forms accompanying this report, and the principal city terminals are described more in detail, as follows: Vancouver, Wash.-Vancouver is on the Columbia River about 4% miles above the mouth of the Willamette River and 106 miles from the sea. It has a present population of about 15,000. The city is well situated commercially, being surrounded by a rich country, well supplied with railroads, and has ample water frontage for a con- siderable commerce, also a deep-water channel to the sea. There have been no deep-water shipments from Vancouver, however, since 1908 when the largest lumber mill burned. The present traffic is handled by the railroads and shallow draft river steamers plying between Portland, Vancouver, and upper Columbia River points. From Vancouver to the main ship channel of the Columbia River at the mouth of the Willamette River, the project for improvement provides for a channel 150 feet wide and 20 feet deep at low water. The present least depth of this channel is 19 feet at low water, for a short distance. The river at Vancouver has depths varying from 20 to 30 feet at low water and ample room for the accommodation of ships of moderate draft. There is one municipal terminal used by river steamers on a monthly rental of $10 and this is sufficient for the present needs. No mechanical appliances are used, as the volume of freight is small. . The city has a public levee, about one-fourth of a mile long, at present not used but favorably located for the construction of a good municipal terminal, should this be needed in the future. The private wharves are mostly unused. The lumber, canned fruit, shipments of machinery, etc., are practically all handled by the railroads and by trucks to and from Portland, with which Van- couver is connected by a bridge and hard-surfaced highway. The distance is about 12 miles. Shipbuilding is at present the principal industry, including the construction of wooden, steel, and concrete vessels. Two draw- bridges cross the river at Vancouver, one near the upper and one near the lower end of the water front. The bridges are about 1 mile apart. Portland, Oreg.—Portland has a population of about 300,000, and is situated on the Willamette River, the central part of the city being about 12 miles above the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers, and about 113 miles from the sea. It is the head of deep-water navigation and is connected with the sea by a ship channel in the river 300 feet wide and 30 feet deep at low water, and a channel 40 feet deep and one-half mile wide at the mouth of Columbia River. The city of Portland now includes St. Johns, and Linnton, and the city limits extend to within about 3% miles of the mouth of the Willamette River. The harbor area in the Willamette River available for deep-draft vessels extends from the foot of Ross Island down stream to the head of Willamette Slough, about 10 miles in length. The width between pierhead lines varies from wº WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2129 about 800 to 1,600 feet. The water area is about 2% square miles, or 1,600 acres, of which about 1,000 acres are available for anchorage. Water terminals, consisting principally of pile and timber struc- tures, have been erected along the water front on both sides of the river, covering in frontage about 33 per cent of the total, and they afford a berthing capacity of about 39,000 linear feet. Long stretches of the water front are still unoccupied by terminals of any kind, so that the present capacity could be increased many times. The total floor area of terminals is about 4,850,000 square feet, or more than 100 acres. Of this area about 2,700,000 square feet is covered. Of the frontage thus improved about 13 per cent is in public owner- ship and the balance private. All the municipal terminals are joint rail and water terminals, ample trackage being provided in yards and in the rear of transit sheds. Connection is made with all the railroads serving the port through the tracks of the North Pacific Terminal Co. and arrange- ments made between the companies for interchange of freight. Rates for intraterminal, interterminal, and intraplant switching are based on the zones, etc., between which the cars are moved and vary from $3 to $15 per loaded car. Municipal terminals Nos. 1 and 2 are provided with ample trackage for cars in the rear of the sheds, while at the Municipal “St. Johns Terminal” (now Municipal Terminal No. 4) the city owns 153% acres, on which storage and industrial tracks are being provided to handle a great number of cars at one time. When completed this terminal will provide 18 to 20 miles of trackage. At this terminal, as well as at terminal No. 1, shipside rail service is provided. All of the municipal terminals have modern appliances, electrically operated, for rapid and economical handling of cargo. The handling of freight from cars to sheds, or vice versa, at these terminals is done by the Commission of Public Docks, but loading or discharging vessels is handled by stevedores employed by the operators of the ships. There are no port charges at Portland other than dockage, wharfage, towage, and pilotage, at published rates.

Municipal terminal No. 1 is located on the west side of the Willa- mette River at the foot of Fifteenth Street, below all bridges used for vehicular traffic. It is a pile and timber structure, with concrete 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—134 2130 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. fire walls and automatic sprinkler system, and is in excellent condi- tion. The length of dockage available is 1,439 feet and the depth of water 30 feet at low water. The area in transit sheds is 121,800 square feet, in warehouses 95,000 square feet, and in open storage 103,500 square feet. Mechanical appliances include “cargo masts” or hoists served by electric winches all along the berthing space and reversible electric conveyors between transit sheds and warehouses; full complement of electric trucks and trailers, two and four wheeled hand trucks, cargo boxes, electric conveyor for piling freight, scales, etc., one 20-ton locomotive crane, six power ramps, and one electric elevator. º Municipal terminal No. 2, at the foot of East Washington Street, is similar in construction and equipment, but has only 526 feet of berthing space. & Municipal “St. Johns terminal” is being constructed on a 153-acre tract lying on the east side of the Willamette River below all bridges. The harbor in that vicinity has a width of 1,600 feet between pier- head lines and a depth of 30 feet at Tow water has been provided. Pier No. 1 at this terminal is nearly completed. It is a pile and timber structure, with filled ground in the rear. Half of the pier has two levels. The berthing space at pier No. 1 is 1,500 feet and the shed area 294,600 square feet. There is also 129,000 square feet. of open storage area on this pier and a large area for open or bulk storage on filled ground in the rear. A 1,000,000-bushel concrete grain elevator in the rear of the transit sheds is nearing completion. Tracks for delivering grain to the elevator permit, the placement of seventy 50-foot cars at one time, and in the rear of the transit sheds 65 cars can be accommodated at one time. There are also tracks in front of transit sheds giving ship-side service. As this terminal is developed, placement for 400 or 500 cars can be made available with the large area in the rear. Mechanical appliances at this terminal include “cargo masts” along the face of the transit shed, electric conveyors for loading grain and flour in sacks, electric conveyors for piling freight, electric elevators and escalators for transfer between two levels, power ramps to handle cargo at various stages of the river, two steam locomotive cranes of 40 and 15 tons capacity, and a complete outfit of trucks, scales, etc. For description of appli- ances to be used in connection with the bulk grain elevator, reference is made to the extract from the report of the engineer of the com- mission of public docks, January 10, 1919, accompanying this report, This report also shows plans and layout of the various municipal terminals. The plans for the “St. Johns terminal” call for the con- struction of three slips with berthing space of about 7,600 feet, or more than five times that now provided at this terminal. The shed area will be increased about threefold and other facilities in propor- tion. It is also intended to double the capacity of the concrete grain elevators. On private grain and flour terminals there is a total floor space of 1,461,340 square feet, including 1,326,600 square feet under shed, and a berthing space of 5,900 feet. At these terminals, electrically operated portable belt conveyors are used for handling sacked grain and flour from sheds to ships' hold. The conveyors are fed from hand trucks. At private general cargo and lumber terminals, trucks and slings are used with ships' tackle. All private terminals are also provided with rail connections and trackage for a number of cars, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2131 Loading of vessels with sacked grain or flour is normally done at a rate of about 200 to 250 tons per hour, and bulk grain will be handled at a much faster rate with the conveyor equipment being installed at the municipal elevators. Bunker coal can be loaded at a rate of 300 tons per hour, and water can be taken while a ship is working cargo. As the steaming time for the round trip from the sea to Portland and return is not over 24 hours, a 10,000-ton grain steamer can load and be at sea again in about 6 or 7 days. Large vessels loading lumber take on about 40,000 feet board measure per hour of lumber, and 50,000 to 60,000 feet of ties. Coast- ing steamers discharge cement, asphalt, merchandise, etc., at a rate of about 80 tons per hour, with two gangs. The terminals are at present adequate for existing commerce and additional facilities will no doubt be provided as necessity may require. Proposed developments include another large floating dry dock, floating machine shop, additional coal bunkers, etc., and extensions to the “St. Johns municipal terminal.” The administration of public terminals is in the hands of a “com- mission of public docks,” an independent department of the city government. The five members of the commission are appointed by the mayor and serve for terms of five years without compensa- tion. Funds are provided by bond issues authorized by vote of the people. Issues already authorized amount to $10,500,000. Facilities of the port, outside of the regular terminals for handling cargo, include several foundries for iron, steel, and brass casting, modern machine and boiler shops, a sectional ſloating dock, coal bunkers, and fuel-oil docks. All these facilities are large enough to handle work and fuel for large vessels. There are also numerous locomotive cranes and stiff-leg derricks of capacities up to 50 tons, and sheer legs, with capacities up to 75 tons. Most of these are elec- trically operated. There are also barges for lightering, and floating derricks for coaling or loading vessels from barges if desired. There are in the harbor 10 shipyards, 7 for wooden vessels and 3 for steel vessels, at present constructing vessels up to 8,800 tons. These yards have 49 sets of ways. - An abundance of pure, soft, freshwateris available at most terminals for galley and boiler use. This is supplied from the city main through 2 and 2% inch pipes under high pressure. The harbor master will furnish free, if needed, 200 feet of hose for making connections, so that vessels may take water while working cargo. The charge for fresh water is $5 for 5,000 gallons or less, and 20 cents per thousand gallons for all additional. The supply is unlimited. The movements of vessels in the harbor are under the control of the harbor master, who is paid by the city. To handle ships in the harbor the operators advise the port authorities of any move desired, and a towboat is furnished by the port at a charge varying from $20 to $55, depending on the tonnage and distance moved. The pilotage charge for harbor moves is $7.50 per vessel. An efficient pilotage service is maintained by the Oregon State Board of Pilot Commissioners, maximum rates being prescribed by law. The charges in effect at the mouth of the Columbia River are $1.50 per foot of draft, and 1 cent per ton net register. For the river, the charge is $1.50 per foot of draft and 1% cents per ton net register. 2132 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. Towing rates of the port of Portland on sailing vessels and barges from the sea to Portland and return vary from $300 for 400-ton net register to $950 for 4,000-ton net register. For intermediate points the rates are lower, according to distance. A vast territory in the “Inland Empire” is naturally tributary to Portland by water grades' on the rail lines and, based on the cost of haul, apparently this port should enjoy a lower freight rate to and from the interior than is in effect to Puget Sound points, to reach which the railroads have to cross the Cascade Mountains. Such is not the case, however. The rates to this port from the interior are the same as to Puget Sound points. Railroads at present serving the port are: Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Northern Pacific, Great Northern, Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway, Oregon Electric Railway, Portland Railway Light & Power Co., and North Pacific Terminal Co. The general interest in navigation and terminal facilities is good, and the general efficiency of the Portland municipal terminals has been rated as very good by various shipping men familiar with con- ditions at other ports. It is claimed by the dock commission that general cargo and foreign imports and exports are handled more cheaply and quickly at the Portland terminals than at any of those of the northwestern ports. North Portland Harbor, Oreg.—North Portland Harbor, or Oregon Slough, is a side channel of the Columbia River, and under the juris– diction of the port of Portland. The project for improvement has been abandoned by the Federal Government. The governing depth of water in the channel below the wharyes is now about 9 feet at low water. There is practically no movement of freight in or out of this terminal at present. This locality is outside the Portland city limits but it is probable that future developments will bring it into the city and that publicly owned terminals may then be desirable. St. Helens, Oreg.—St. Helens is a town of 2,600 inhabitants located on the Columbia River 27 miles below Portland and is an important shipping point for lumber, creosoted piling, and ties. There is no transfer between rail and water since all the products for deep-water shipment are manufactured locally. There is a municipal terminal for local river traffic now under construction which should be sufficient for all needs for some time. The quantities of local freight handled are small. - Kalama, Wash.-Kalama, 39 miles below Portland, is the point at which the railroads from Portland to Puget Sound leave the Columbia River. There is some transfer of freight between rail and water at this point, the water traffic so transferred being carried by shallow- draft river steamers and barges to and from various points on the lower Columbia. River. The present transfer facilities are controlled by the Northern Pacific Railroad Co. Construction of a small public terminal would probably increase water shipments to and from this Olnt. - p Rainier, Oreg.—Rainier, 45% miles below Portland, has a popula- tion of about 1,500. One sawmill at this point makes shipments by water, and other water-borne traffic is carried by river steamers in 1 Railroads to Portland from the “Inland Empire” follow the Columbia River and tributaries. They accordingly, cross no mountain ranges and have a down, or water, grade. This haul costs less than when the railroads cross mountain ranges as they do in reaching Puget Sound. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2133 small quantities. No transfer is made between rail and water. No public facilities outside of a small landing are needed. * - Cathlamet, Wash.--Cathlamet, 72 miles below Portland, is not on the main channel of the Columbia River but is a landing place for all river steamers between Portland and Astoria by way of the Cathlamet Channel. Miscellaneous freight, salmon, and passengers are handled here. No public facilities are needed. Skamokawa, Wash.--Skamokawa, 79 miles below Portland, is on Steamboat Slough, a side channel of the Columbia River. Consider- able territory is tributary to the river at this point and all river Steamers land here. No public facilities are needed, as there are no railroad facilities. Prescott, Westport, and Wauna, Oreg., and Knappton, Wash.--These localities are, respectively, 43, 70, 72, and 96 miles below Portland. At these points, large lumber mills are located with wharves used by them for loading to ocean carriers. A large quantity of lumber is shipped from these points. No transfer of freight is made between rail and water, and no public facilities are needed. The mills con- stitute practically the only business at these points. Astoria, Oreg.—Astoria is built on a promontory about 12 miles from the sea and about 100 miles below Portland, the Columbia River estuary or bay, about 4 miles wide, lying to the north, and Youngs Bay and River to the south and west. It has a population of about 15,000. The main ship channel of the Columbia River passes through Astoria Harbor, and along the water front. This channel to the sea has a depth of 30 feet at mean lower low water and a width of 300 feet in the estuary, and a depth of 40 feet at mean lower low water and a width of one-half mile at the mouth of the river. It is maintained by the United States under projects covering the ship channel from Portland to the sea. The mean range of tides at Astoria is about 74 feet. Freshets in the river have practically no effect on the water level. Until recently the principal industries at Astoria have been salmon fishing, canning, and lumbering. Since the war, three shipyards for the construction of wooden vessels have been established, and now the principal items of commerce are canned salmon, lumber, flour, and wheat, outbound; and crude oil and coal, inbound. Coal is now hauled by rail, but before the war it was mostly imported by water. The terminals at Astoria are mostly of pile and timber construction, and are being expanded rapidly. They are adequate to meet both present and prospective commerce. There are 23 of these open to the public on equal terms with a total berthing space of about 14,000 feet, of which about 13,000 feet have depths of 20 to 40 feet available at low water. Of the berthing space available for vessels, about one- third is in public ownership. Twenty of the terminals have connec- tion by means of spurs with the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Rail- way Co. tracks. Others, including the large water terminal of the Oregon–Washington Railway & Navigation Co., with a frontage of 1,400 feet, have no physical connection with the railroad. Except at the municipal terminal and the Hammond Lumber Co., where a steam gantry crane is used for handling lumber on the wharf, practically no mechanical labor-saving devices are used. Freight is handled by trucks and ships' tackle. *- 2134 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The usual charge for wharfage is 25 cents per ton, and for dockage the charge varies from 50 cents to $15 per landing, depending on the size of vessel. Switching charges for the spurs, when in connection with line haul, are absorbed in freight rates; but for other switching within the yard limits, they vary from 17% to 25 cents per ton, with minimum charges of $5 to $7.50 per car, depending on commodities. The port of Astoria owns a large tract of water-front property at Smith Point, which is large enough for a great many years' develop- ment. The frontage of this property, measured along the pierhead line, is 8,840 feet, and the depth averages about 1,500 feet. The “Smith Point” terminal constructed by the port of Astoria, a muni- cipal corporation, provides a berthing space of about 5,000 feet with low-water depths of 20 to 35 feet at present available. On Pier No. 1, the warehouse space covers about 4 acres. This pier is of tile and timber, a slow burning construction. In the rear of the warehouse, there is a depressed herringbone track and other sidings, and a 1,000,000-bushel concrete grain elevator with sack and bulk grain conveyors for loading vessels. On Pier, No. 2, are located coal bunkers with a capacity of 175 tons per hour, and ample space for open storage. Double-track sidings traverse both sides of this pier and also the west side of Pier No. 1. Three locomotive cranes, of 40 and 50 tons capacity, are used for handling heavy freight, and a stiff- leg derrick at the end of Slip No. 1 handles freight to and from barge and car. An electric ramp on Pier No. 1 is fitted for rapid handling of freight from river steamers. General freight from warehouse to ships is handled by trucks and ships' tackle. The general efficiency of this terminal should compare favorably with others on the coast handling a like traffic. Sidetracks connect directly with the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway, which follows the Columbia River to Portland and the east. The port has constructed a belt line serving the shipyards and the district on the north side of Youngs Bay, which also connects with the main line railroad. a' The port administration at Astoria is in the hands of the port of Astoria, a municipal corporation embracing all of Clatsop County. Authority is vested in five commissioners elected by the people of the county at the general election. The commissioners serve for four years without pay. … " The port commissioners have authority to levy taxes on all asses- sible property within the port district in amount not exceeding 5 per cent of the assessed valuation of such property for State and county purposes, and additional authority to issue bonds not exceed- ing 10 per cent of the assessed valuation, for improvements in the interest of shipping, terminal and industrial developments. All charges at the port of Astoria are printed in Tariff No. 2, except É. and towing charges, which are published in the port of ortland Tariff No. 6. The port of Astoria operates no towboats for handling vessels. The pilotage charge between Astoria and the sea is at present $1.50 per foot draft and 1 cent per ton net register each way. Towing service at the mouth of the Columbia River is maintained by the port of Portland and the charge for towing from the sea to Astoria, when necessary, is 70 per cent of the rate from the sea to Portland. Prospective developments at Astoria include the construction of a marine railway, a dry dock, another bulk-grain elevator, and Pier WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2135 No. 3 of the Smith Point Municipal Terminal, as well as the comple- tion of a 20-foot waterway into Skipanon Creek. The municipal terminals at Astoria are joint terminals for rail and water. Practically all the freight handled at these is received by rail and shipped by water or vice versa. Cargoes are handled with dispatch and the general efficiency is good. The general interest in port facilities is rather keen. - Clatskamie River, Oreg.—The Clatskanie River rises in the Coast Range in the State of Oregon, flows northwesterly about 28 miles, and empties through Beaver and Wallace Sloughs into the Columbia River, 65 miles below Portland. The stream is tidal and navigable to the head of navigation at Clatskanie, 1% miles above its mouth, to which a depth of about 3 feet could be carried at low water. The existing project provides for dredging a channel 6 feet deep at low water, with a bottom width of 40 feet, from the mouth to Clatskanie. - The commerce is local and consists of dairy products, household goods, hay, live stock, logs, merchandise, fuel oil, shingles, and vegetables, and averages about 8,000 short tons annually. The number of passengers carried annually is about 1,000. The steam- boats operating on the stream are of the stern-wheel type, 152 feet in length, 31 feet in breadth, and 6.6 feet in depth. The terminals at Clatskanie consist of a dock and warehouse of pile and timber construction owned by the Clatskanie Transportation Co., which operates the only line of steamboats on the river. All freight between boat and warehouse and vice versa, is handled on trucks by the deckhands. The existing terminals and facilities for handling freight are considered adequate for the present and immedi- ate future demands of commerce. A public landing is provided for gasoline boats and small craft. The railroad crosses the river about three-fourths of a mile below the town of Clatskanie. There is no physical connection, and no. mutual contract exists for the interchange of traffic between water and rail. The Columbia River highway connects with terminals on the river. _Willamette River above Portland and Yamhill River, Oreg.—The Willamette River flows in a general northerly direction through a broad and fertile valley to a junction with the Columbia River at a point On the latter about 100 miles from the ocean, and about 13 miles be- low Portland, Oreg. Its total length is about 294 miles and it is navigable at the higher stages of water to Eugene, 172 miles above Portland. Since 1897 there has been no regular steamboat service beyond Corvallis, 119 miles above Portland. The Yamhill River is about 52 miles in length, and flows into the Willamette River at a point about 42 miles above Portland. The existing project provides for a low water depth in the Willa- mette River of 6 feet from Portland to Oregon City, 13 miles, and of 2.5 to 3.5 feet from Oregon City to Corvallis, 106 miles, to be ob- tained by dredging, snagging, and dike and revetment work. Snag- ging is carried on as far up as Harrisburg, 34 miles above Corvallis. On the Yamhill River, the project provides for a low water depth of 4 feet from the mouth to McMinnville, to be obtained by means of a lock and dam (completed in 1900) and by the removal of obstruc- 2136 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. tions. On the Willamette, the controlling depths are 6 feet from Portland to Oregon City and 2.5 feet from Oregon City to Corvallis; and on the Yamhill, 2.5 feet to McMinnville. The Willamette River is paralleled on both sides by railroads, the Southern Pacific Railroad passing through Oregon City, Salem, Al- bany, and Harrisburg on the east side and through Independence Corvallis, and Eugene on the west side. The Oregon Electric Rail- road passes through Wilsonville, Salem, Albany, Harrisburg, and Eugene. All of these towns are on the river and are distributing and business centers for large agricultural districts lying adjacent. There are, however, no facilities provided at any of these points for the interchange of traffic between rail and water except at Corvallis. Freight traffic on the Willamette and Yamhill Rivers is carried on by stern-wheel steamboats varying from 130 to 175 feet molded length and from 26 to 29 feet beam, with a draft when loaded to capacity of 43 to 48 inches. The average haul is 70 miles. On the upstream trips at low-water stages these boats navigate channels 3 feet in depth and 100 feet wide against currents running from 3 to 8 miles per hour in many places on the upper river. On the upstream trip the important items of freight are general merchandise, agricultural implements, machinery, automobiles, brick, coal, tile, sewer pipes, furniture, shingles, etc. This freight origi- nates mostly in Portland, and the largest deliveries are at Salem, Albany, and Corvallis. On the downstream trip the important items are dairy products, fruit, grain, hay, hides, hogs, live stock, vege- tables, and flour. These products originate at all river points and are destined for Portland. The commerce amounts to about 500,000 tons annually, of which about 46 per cent pertains to Portland Har- . bor only. Of the balance, about 175,000 tons pertains to the short section of river below Oregon City and about 92,000 tons to the river above Oregon City. r § Daily traffic between Portland and Oregon City is carried on by the Willamette Navigation Co., of West Linn, Oreg., and a triweekly service between Portland and Independence is operated by the Capital City Navigation Co., of Portland. At the present time there is no regular line of boats operating on the Yamhill River. Following is a list of the terminals above Portland, the figures after each being the distance in miles above Portland: Miles Miles Terminal. above Terminal. above g Portland. Portland.

At McMinnville there is only a bank landing, but a small dock should be provided. These docks have available lengths varying from 16 feet at Lincoln to 200 feet at Salem. They are all privately owned and are sufficient for existing traffic. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 21:37 They are open to public use and no charge is made, except at some localities, where steamboats calling regularly pay a rate of $15 to $20 per month. At Oregon City and Corvallis the water terminals have railroad connections, but there are no railroad connections at any other points. There is no exchange of traffic between rail and water at any of these points except Corvallis, where hay and wool from the upper Willam- ette are transferred from rail to water and transported by boat to Portland. Practically all of these docks are conveniently located with reference to either the Pacific Highway, which is the main thoroughfare between Seattle, Wash., and San Francisco, Calif., or the Capital Highway, which is the principal road on the west side of the Willamette between Portland and Salem. Both of these highways are good roads. For the Willamette River the terminus of regular navigation is Corvallis, and boats rarely go above that point. There are no public terminals above Corvallis and none are needed. Between Corvallis and Portland the present terminals are believed to be sufficient for traffic and there is no necessity for the construction of publicly owned terminals. On the Yamhill the terminus is McMinnville, where a small dock should be built, provided a regular line of boats will Operate on the river. At present the terminal facilities seem suffi- cient on this river. - Since most of the downstream freight moved by boat originates in the Willamette Valley, and since practically all of this freight is destined for Portland, either for local consumption or transshipment, there is little necessity for transfer facilities for the interchange of traffic between rail and water at other points. The distances to Portland are short, and once loaded, either on car or boat, it is cheaper to send the freight straight through without change. The upstream freight consists of food, machinery, etc., for local consumption and TISé. It appears, however, that more use could be made of the water transportation facilities, and that much freight now handled by rail from Willamette Valley points to Portland could be carried more cheaply by water. The boats that have operated on the Willamette have not maintained regular and satisfactory schedules. This, in addition to an aggressive campaign by the railroads to secure freight, has diverted a large amount of this traffic from the river to the rail- roads. This could be remedied by proper business methods on the part of the steamboat companies. Lewis River, Wash.--The Lewis River empties into the Columbia. River about 26 miles below Portland. La Center is on the East Fork, 63 miles above the mouth, and Woodland is on the North Fork, 7} miles above the mouth, and these are the heads of regular steamboat navigation. To these points the stream is tidal and the controlling depths at low water are about 3% and 3 feet respectively. The existing project provides for a low-water channel 6 feet deep and 50 feet wide to the forks, thence 4 feet deep and 50 feet wide on the East Fork to La Center and on the North Fork to Woodland, respectively, and for clearing the channel to Runyon. The commerce is local and consists of dairy products, hay, live stock, logs, lumber, meats, mill feed, and vegetables. Exclusive of logs and piling, it averages about 16,000 short tons annually. The 3. 2138 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. number of passengers carried averages about 2,000 annually. The steamboats operating on the stream are of the stern-wheel type, 117.5 feet in length, 22.5 feet in breadth, and 4.7 feet in depth. The terminals at La Center and Woodland are small docks and warehouses of pile and lumber construction and are owned by the municipal authorities. All freight between water and rail, and vice versa, is handled on trucks by the deck hands. The terminal facilities on the stream are considered adequate for the present and immediate future demands of commerce. No additional publicly owned termi- nals appear to be necessary at this time. Woodland has both water and rail facilities but no physical con- nection or mutual contract exists for the interchange of traffic between them. Improved highways connect the towns along the Lewis River and most of the water terminals are conveniently located with reference to them. Cowlitz River, Wash.-The Cowlitz River empties into the Columbia River about 45 miles below Portland. The stream is tidal to Ostrander, 9 miles above the mouth, and the controlling depths at low water are about 3 feet to Ostrander and 2 feet to Toledo, the head of navigation, 37 miles above the mouth. The existing project provides for obtaining a low-water channel 50 feet wide and 4 feet deep from the mouth to Ostrander, 9 miles; thence 50 feet wide and 2% feet deep to Castle Rock, 10 miles; and not less than 40 feet wide and 24 feet deep thence to Toledo, 18 miles. The commerce is local and consists of grains, hay, logs, lumber, merchandise, piling, vegetables, and shingles. Exclusive of logs and piling, it averages from 20,000 to 25,000 short tons annually. The number of passengers carried annually is about 5,000. The steam- boats operating on the stream are of the stern-wheel type, 139.2 feet in length, 26.5 feet in breadth, and 7.2 feet in depth. The terminals are principally natural landings along the bank. At Kelso, Castle Rock, and Toledo the terminals are small docks and warehouses of pile and timber construction owned by the Kellogg Transportation Co., which operates the line of steamboats opera- ting regularly on the river. All the freight between boat and ware- house, and vice versa, is handled on trucks by the deck hands. The existing terminals and facilities are considered adequate for the present and immediate future demands of commerce. A public landing is provided at Kelso for gasoline and other small craft. Kelso and Castle Rock have both water and rail facilities. At Castle Rock there is no physical connection between rail and water. At Kelso the railroad runs alongside the dock and freight from up- river º is transferred to rail when the boats operate. No mutual contract exists for the interchange of traffic between Water and rail at either of the above points. The terminals on this stream are provided with improved highway connections. & Skamokawa Creek, Wash.--Skamokawa Creek empties into the Columbia River about 34 miles from the mouth. The existing proj- ect provides for dredging a channel about 1,600 feet in length between Steamboat and Brooks Sloughs, 75 feet wide on the bottom and 6% feet deep at mean low water. © The commerce is local, consisting of miscellaneous freight, and averages from 600 to 1,000 tons annually. Large quantities of shin- gles, ties, and logs are also carried on the stream. The number of passengers carried averages about 3,000 annually. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2139 The boats operating on the stream are of the stern-wheel towboat and gasoline types, about 150 feet in length and 30 feet beam, and 84 feet in length and 25 feet beam, and of from 4 to 7 feet draft, respectively. The terminals are two privately-owned wharves of timber construc- tion, and are considered satisfactory and adequate for the present or prospective demands of commerce. All freight between boat and wharf, and vice versa, is handled on trucks by the deck hands. The locality has no railroad connection, being dependent upon the roads and river for transportation facilities. - Grays River, Wash.-Grays River empties into Grays Bay in the estuary of the Columbia River nearly opposite the city of Astoria. The stream is tidal and navigable to the town of Grays River, the head of navigation, about 8 miles above the mouth, to which point a maximum draft of about 3 feet could be carried at mean low water. The existing project provides for the removal of snags and other obstructions from the channel and banks between the mouth and the town of Grays River. The traffic on the stream is local to and from Astoria and consists of dairy products, hay, lime, plaster and cement, logs, lumber, machinery, merchandise, mill feed, vegetables, and shingles. Exclu- sive of logs and piling, it averages 8,000 short tons annually. The number of passengers carried annually averages 10,000. - The boats operating on the stream are of the stern-wheel towboat and propeller types, 150 feet in length, 30.8 feet in breadth, and 7 feet in depth, and 68 feet in length, 22 feet in breadth, and 5 feet in depth, respectively. --- The terminals are natural landings along the bank or small wharves, privately owned, and are considered adequate for the present and prospective requirements of commerce. The locality has no rail- road connection, being dependent on the roads and river for transpor- tation facilities. - Deep River, Wash.--—Deep River flows into Grays Bay, in the estu- ary of the Columbia River, nearly opposite the city of Astoria. The river i. navigable to Deep River post office, about 4 miles above its mouth. There is no approved project for the improvement of the waterway. The traffic on the stream is local to and from Astoria and consists of dairy and agricultural products, building supplies, live stock, logs, machinery, mill feed, vegetables, and ºil. Exclu- sive of logs it averages about 2,000 short tons annually. The number of passengers carried annually is about 20,000. The steamboat operating on the stream is the propeller type, 78 feet in length, 16.7 feet in breadth, and 4.8 feet in depth. - The terminals are natural bank landings and small wharves, privately owned, and are considered adequate for the present and prospective requirements of commerce. The locality has no railroad connection being dependent on the roads and river for transportation facilities. ExTRACT FROM REPORT of THE ENGINEER of THE CoMMIssion of PUBLIC Docks, PoETLAND, OREG., DATED JANUARY 10, 1919, FoR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING NovKMBER 30, 1918. * The construction program of the commission since its organization, November, 1910, has been prosecuted from the proceeds of two bond issues, the first in the amount 2140 WATER TERMINAT, AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. of $2,500,000, authorized November 8, 1910, and the second in the amount of $3,000,000, authorized June 4, 1917. From expenditures made from these bond issues certain water-front facilities have been completed and are in operation and others are under construction. Completed and in operation—1. Foot of Stark Street, west side of the river, motor- boat landing, with barge float, two waiting or rest rooms and public comfort stations. The permanent offices of the commission are in the second story of the motor-boat landing, and construction throughout is fireproof. 2. Fifteenth Street municipal terminal, west side of the river: (a) Municipal Dock No. 1, a quay dock 955 feet in length, 300 feet of which has two levels. This dock is covered with a transit shed 933 feet in length and 100 feet in width; (b) At the north end of the dock a slip of 120 feet in width and 484 feet in length, with an open pier along its south line, extending from the harbor face of the quay dock to Front Street; also a distance of 484 feet and 60 feet in width; (c) Warehouse A, a one-story structure 190 by 200 feet, at the south end of the quay dock; (d) Warehouse B, a one- story structure 330 by 176 feet, along the open pier at the north end of the quay dock and used as a transit shed for the handling of general cargo. This complete installation furnishes a very compact terminal, served by adequate rail trackage facil- ities, at which 65 cars can be accommodated at one time. The frontage at the quay dock and in the slip affords berthing space at one time for three vessels 450 to 500 feet irº length. 3. East Washington Street municipal terminal, east side of the river. Municipal Dock No. 2, a two-level quay dock of 526 feet in length, covered with a transit shed 100 feet in width the full length of the dock. This dock has rail connection with the East Side terminals. The tracks in the rear of the dock have placement for 18 cars at one time. 4. Pittsburg Street municipal terminal, east side of the river. Municipal Dock No. 3, a quay dock 540 feet in length, of which 50 feet has two levels. This dock is cov- ered with transit shed 440 feet in length and 100 feet in width, having a space of 100 feet by 120 feet for open storage at the north end of the dock. This dock was built by the former city of St. Johns, and passed under the jurisdic- tion of the commission when St. Johns was annexed to the city of Portland, July, º At that time the dock did not have rail facilities, electric lights, or water Supply. During the year this dock was provided with rail connection with the Union Pacific trackage, some distance in the rear of the dock. Tracks were installed along the rear platform and to the front of the dock, furnishing space for the placement of 18 cars. There were also provided connection for a driveway to the upper level of the dock, an ample water supply for fire protection and watering of ships, and the dock is now electrically lighted inside and out. Municipal Docks Nos. 1, 2, and 3, and warehouses A and B, are of heavy mill con- struction. Docks 1 and 2 have reinforced concrete fire walls and are provided with automatic sprinkler systems, as are warehouses A and B. Dock No. 3 is not sprinkled but, as already noted, is supplied with ample water supply for fire protection. - Docks Nos. 1 and 2 are designed for a live load of 600 pounds per square foot, Dock No. 3 for 400 pounds, and warehouses A and B for 2,000 pounds. Plans and photographs of the above municipal facilities are shown on plates accompanying this report. In the latter part of 1917 the commission purchased below St. Johns, and all of the bridges spanning the Willamette River, approximately 150 acres with a water frontage of 2,500 lineal feet, for a large terminal development, which later was designated as the St. Johns Municipal Terminal. This was made possible by the $3,000,000 bond issue voted in 1917, and enabled the commission to carry out its plans for the con- struction of a terminal, where would be installed such machinery and equipment as would permit the handling of cargoes with the maximum efficiency and dispatch and the minimum of expense to both the consignor and the consignee, and where harbor moves, delays, and other expenses to shipping would be reduced as much as possible, facilities which would not only compare favorably with those of other ports but which would permit the transference of goods at a lower percentage of cost. At this terminal there will be handled, stored, and shipped more particularly heavy and bulk freight and certain classes of the port’s imports and exports business, a trans- shipping terminal where such freight brought to the port will be free to move by the most direct, convenient, and economical route to its ultimate destination, the cargo for local consumption or distribution to be more generally handled at the other municipal terminals located nearer the business center of the city. 1 Not reprinted. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2141 The St. Johns municipal terminal site has ample area for expansion, construction possibilities, and trackage facilities not only for the water-front facilities contemplated, but also for the industrial section in rear of the piers and slips. This terminal is located in the widest portion of the harbor, where the river has a width of 1,600 feet, which has been dredged to a depth of not less than 30 feet at low water, thus providing easy access for vessels berthing at the piers, the slips of which have a width of 280 feet and the same depth at low water as the harbor channel. With the facilities authorized and to be provided, it is expected that large quantities of lumber will be here assembled for foreign and domestic export, thus furnishing a convenient outlet for the products of interior mills and mills not located at tidewater points. - With this report is shown a general layout of the St. Johns municipal terminal, giving facilities under construction, those authorized for immediate construction and those proposed, including the extensive rail trackage facilities. The water-front facilities under construction and now nearing completion at the St. Johns municipal terminal are: 1. Pier No. 1.-This pier is 1,200 feet in length and 221 feet in width, and is a two- level structure for one-half of its length. The transit shed is 180 feet in width, of which the outer 600 feet is now nearly completed and the remaining 600 feet will be con- structed as soon as the inner one-half of the pier, now being used by the contractors for the grain elevator, is cleared of construction material, thus providing a transit shed 1,200 feet in length and 180 feet in width for the handling of sack grain and general Cargo. The front of the pier is provided with trackage for its entire length, and in the rear of the pier two tracks will be installed now, with provision for an additional track when needed, all as shown on accompanying plate. It is expected that Pier No. 1 will be fully completed and ready for operation about February 1, 1919. The pier will be automatically sprinkled and furnished with other modern fire-pro- tection measures, insuring a low-contents insurance rate, and furnished with up-to-date electric lighting and power installation. It is expected to use the outer 600 feet of the pier for the handling and storage of grain received in sacks, or to be sacked for reshipment by water. There will be two sacking bins on the upper level of the pier, to be filled from the elevator by the shipping belts, and under the pier shed floor there will be a conveyor belt, running the full length of the pier, on which grain from sacks can be cut in and carried to the elevator for cleaning and Smutting and storage, if so desired. If bulk shipments of grain are received by river steamers or larges, a marine leg will be installed at the outer end of the pier, and the conveyor belt under the pier shed floor, above referred to, will be utilized for transporting grain from the marine leg to the elevator. The galleries carrying the conveyor belts will extend from the elevator along the full length of the pier shed. These details are fully shown on plates accom- panying the report. 2. Grain elevator.—The construction of this elevator was authorized last year, when preparation of plans and specifications was begun. Separate contracts were let for the pile foundation and the elevator structure. The pile foundation was completed in June, and concreting for the elevator was started shortly thereafter. The contract calls for the completion of the elevator by February 15, 1919, but at this time it is not believed that it will be finished on time. This elevator was designed to be most modern in every respect, with the most effi- cient equipment and general arrangement for the economical and expeditious han- dling and cleaning of the many grades and varieties of grain grown in the Pacific North- west, and a detailed description is here given regarding this facility for the information of shipping interests and others. The elevator will consist of a track shed, operating house, and storage annex. The shed is 151 feet in length; the operating house 168 feet in length, 46 feet in width, and 178 feet in height, and the storage annex 136 feet in length 105 feet in width, and 100 feet in height. Reinforced concrete construction is used throughout, and the present capacity is 1,053,800 bushels, and connections have been arranged for increasing the storage to 2,000.000 bushels. The track shed will have six power shovels for unloading bulk grain into six track hoppers, with an unloading capacity of about 120,000 bushels per day. For the con- venient unloading of sacked grain from cars in the track shed, a platform will be pro- vided between the two main tracks, on which the sacks line are piled and later cut into the track hoppers for transfer and storage in the elevatcr; and this can be done without slowing up the unloading of the bulk wheat from cars. One car puller is to be provided to pull cars on either side of the two tracks passing through the unloading shed. The great depth of the property makes possible a most economical trackage, arrange- ment for the elevator, and the approved plan includes sufficient tracks for the place- 2142 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. ment and handling of seventy 50-foot loaded grain cars at one time, with greater track- age space beyond the track shed for the empty cars. When the storage capacity of the elevator is increased to 2,000,000 bushels, the un- loading shed will be doubled in capacity as will the elevator trackage. The operating house will be divided into 79 bins, varying in capacity from 300 to 5,150 bushels, 50 of these bins having a capacity of more than 4,000 bushels. The total capacity of the operating house bins will be 298,700 bushels. * The storage annex will have 63 bins 15 feet in diameter and 85 feet in height, of a ; varying from 12,200 bushels to 10,300 bushels, and 36 interspace bins, each holding 2,200 bushels, or a total bin capacity of 755,100 bushels. The elevator equipment to begin with will consist of the following, to which later will be added more separators and smutters: Three receiving legs, 12,000 bushels per hour each; two receiving legs, handling grain from pier shed, 6,000 bushels per hour each; three shipping legs, 12,000 bushels per hour each;two separator legs, 6,000 bushels per hour each; two smutter legs, 4,000 bushels per hour each; three receiving conveyor belts, 12,000 bushels per hour each; three shipping conveyor belts under annex, 12,000 bushels per hour each; two conveyor gallery shipping belts, 10,000 bushels per hour each; three distributing conveyor belts over annex, 10,000 bushels per hour each; one distributing conveyor belt operating house cupola, 10,000 bushels per hour each; two Smutters; two separators; two aspirating separators; nine hopper scales, 2,000 bush- els capacity; one hopper scale, 1,000 bushels capacity; one passenger elevator; one Humphrey elevator; 14 dock spouts; dust collecting system; sweeper system. - Electric power will be used in operation of the plant, each circuit to be operated independently, with electric signals and telephones throughout the plant. lºng to ships can be made at the rate of 20,000 bushels per hour to one or two VēSSelS. **.*** t In the excavation for Slip No. 1 to the dimensions of 280 feet in width and 1,200 feet in length there were removed approximately 500,000 cubic yards of material, and from the channel dredging, to establish a depth of 30 feet at low water, approxi- mately, 1,150,000 cubic yards, all of which material was placed on the north one- third of the site to raise its elevation to about 32 feet above low water. This elevation has been reached on the area around the elevator and for the railroad trackage serving the elevator and Pier No. 1. On the filled area in rear of the elevator and pier the fill has been raised to an elevation of about 22 feet above low water. As the dredging of the harbor channel in front of the terminal progresses the excavated material will be deposited on the site to best advantage, with the view of gradually raising it to the required height. . In the excavation of Slip No. 1 the commission had the use of one of the port of Portland dredges, for which arental of $300 per day was paid. All harbor channel dredg- ing was done by the port of Portland free of expense, it being the policy of that public body to provide necessary channel depth to all waterfront facilities constructed in the harbor, regardless of whether such improvements are of a public or private nature. To furnish an ample water supply for the St. Johns municipal terminal the com- mission entered into contract with the water bureau to extend the city's water supply to the terminal, for which purpose a 12-inch water main was laid, which was paid for by the commission, with the provision that as soon as the revenue accruing from water consumed from this water main shall equal 6 per cent per annum of the original cost of the water main the water bureau shall reimburse the commission the amount paid therefor, less 2% per cent per annum for depreciation and maintenance. In order to provide electric energy at the St. Johns municipal terminal, both for Construction and operating purposes, the commission built, at its own expense, a transmission line approximately 1 mile long, delivering 11,500 volts alternating current to a transformer station, where it is stepped down to the proper voltage required for commercial purposes. - .. . In connection with the operation of the St. Johns municipal terminal an office build- ing of ample dimensions will be constructed, which will house not only the terminal staff of the commission but space will also be provided for the grain-inspection bureau of the State public service commission. In the space allotted for the grain inspection force the dock commission will install the º and appliances necessary to conduct all required tests at the terminal, doing away with the sending of samples to the main office of the inspection bureau and thereby effecting a considerable saving in time in completing the tests and in the issuance of warehouse receipts to customers for bulk and Sack grain handled at this terminal. - FREIGHT-HANDLING FACILITIES. On the transit sheds of Dock No. 1 and warehouse B of the Fifteenth Street munici- pal terminal, and of Dock No. 2 of the East Washington Street municipal terminal, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2143 cargo mast or cargo hoists are installed on the harbor side of the sheds for the expe- ditious and economical handling of cargo. These cargo masts are used in connection with the ship's gear or a combination of the ship's gear and portable electric winches, of which four, each of rated capacity of 31 horsepower, have been installed at the Fifteenth Street terminal, which is also provided with a 20-ton steam locomotive. crane, electric dock trucks, etc. Both docks, Nos. 1 and 2, have electric elevators. between the two-level sections of the docks. At the St. Johns municipal terminal Pier No. 1 is also fitted with cargo masts or cargo hoists, and in the two-level portion of the pier there are installed adjustable. ramps, one 5–10 ton Barlow elevator, with platform space of 13 feet by 39 feet, and One fixed power ramp connecting the two levels of the pier. " For use at this terminal there have been ordered and soon will be delivered one. 15-ton and one 40-ton steam locomotive crane for the loading and unloading of cars, handling of bulk material and freight, etc. *-** All of the municipal terminals are supplied with electric stacking machines for the. piling of freight to a height greater than is economical with hand labor. They are used mostly in connection with sack commodities, such as grain, flour, copra, rice, sugar, etc., and canned goods. They have been found very useful in economizing space on the docks and in reducing the cost of handling certain classes of freight. ADI)[TIONAL POIRT FA CILITIES. With funds remaining from the $3,000,000 bond issue of June 4, 1917, and partially from those made available from the $5,000,000 bond issue authorized by the voters. of the city of Portland at the election held November 5, 1918, the commission has authorized the following construction program to be undertaken as soon as the plans therefor can be prepared and contracts made. These developments are to be made at the St. Johns municipal terminal: Extension of the transit shed on Pier No. 1 for. 600 feet additional, making its length 1,200 feet and width 180 feet; widening of Slip No. 1 from 260 feet to 280 feet for its entire length of 1,200 feet; lengthening Slip No. 1 from 1,200 feet to 1,500 feet, to a uniform width of 280 feet and depth of 30 feet at low. water; extension of Pier No. 1, as a covered pier, additional 300 feet, making it 1,500. feet in length; construction of Pier No. 2 as an open pier, 1,500 feet in length and 250. feet in width. The estimated cost of these improvements, with necessary roadways and trackage, but not including engineering and contingencies, is $801,224. In asking the people to vote additional bonds for the further development of the port, the commission’s tentative program included other facilities, of which the most . important are: A 12,000-ton floating dry dock; a modern repair plant in connection with the dry dock; a floating repair plant; a floating coaling plant; coal and fuel oil storage facilities; vegetable oil storage; additional mechanical freight handling equip- Iment. Of the above, the commission has directed that a detailed and complete investiga-. tion and study be made of the mostmodern dry dock construction, with a view of under- taking the preparation of the construction plans at an early date, and that in the dry- dock matter, as well as in any additional construction of water-front facilities for the port, this department consult freely with and to a great extent be guided by the advice of the port and harbor facilities commission of the United States Shipping Board, in order that future development of the port may be carried out in harmony with the policy of the Government, which contemplates the development of the ports of the country more along national lines than from the standpoint of local requirements. Before proceeding with its plans in providing the facilities above referred to, the . commission, therefore, will confer fully with the port and harbors facilities commis- sion as to the real necessity, the type and extent of the proposed improvements, so that when the work is actually undertaken the commission will have had the benefit of the extensive studies and investigations now being made by the port and harbors facilities commission along these particular lines. PRIVATE WATER-FRONT IMPROVEMENTS. While this report more particularly covers the municipally owned and operated terminals, private and other interests have developed a considerable water front, and statement of these facilities is here given as furnishing information of general interest regarding the port. There has been developed by these parties a river frontage of about 4% miles, which is being used by vessels varying from the usual type of river boats and coasting . vessels up to the largest ocean-going vessels. * / §e 2144 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. The principal docks for ocean carriers have a depth of 25 to 35 feet at low water. These docks, varying in length from 200 to 1,000 feet, are all of the quay type. Many of these docks are equipped for handling certain commodities of freight economically, being supplied with derricks and electric conveyors, and nearly all of them have rail COInnection. - - f * are several distinct classes of docks in the port, which may be segregated as OILOWS : 1. Lumber docks.—There are eight of these and they have a total berthing space of 4,742 linear feet and open dock storage of 596,100 square feet, exclusive of the filled ground in rear, which is also utilized for storage of lumber. These docks are usually provided with gasoline tractors, light locomotive cranes, and derricks for the handling, distribution, and the loading of cars. 2. Fuel docks.—The three fuel oil docks maintained by California oil companies have a total berthing space of 1,192 feet, with pipe lines and pumps for receiving and supplying fuel oil. The total capacity of the storage tanks of these companies is 312,913 barrels of crude and 106,259 barrels of refined oil. Pacific Coast Coal Co. owns and-operates a coal bunker with gravity discharge elevator and ship-loading plant of a capacity of 300 tons per hour, loading from the 5,000-ton storage bunkers, with reserve ground storage of 10,000 tons. The port of Portland is now constructing a coal storage dock of 10,000 tons capacity, and a private concern is also taking steps to install a large coal bunkering plant. Vessels are frequently coaled from barges by hoisting scow while vessels are at berth discharging and taking on cargo. 3. Grain docks.-There are eight such private docks, which are usually considered as strictly grain docks. They are all shedded and some are two-level docks. Each dock has ample berthing space for one large vessel, and the eight docks have a total berthing space of 3,850 linear feet and shedded area of 663,100 square feet. 4. Cargo docks.-In addition to the municipal terminal docks, there are eight general cargo docks, which have a combined berthing space of 3,960 linear feet and shedded area of 832,800 square feet. The majority of these docks have two levels, and Some of them are used for both grain and general cargo, depending on the demand for the particular commodity space required. 5. River steamer docks.--There are seven docks used nearly exclusively for river boat traffic. They are all two-level docks and shedded. Their total berthing space is 1,610 feet, and shedded area is 290,600 square feet. 6. Miscellaneous docks.--These include the docks used by industries and for build- ing materials, such as sand and gravel. They are open docks and have a frontage of 5,420 linear feet. The municipal terminal docks, including Pier No. 1 at the St. Johns municipal terminal, now nearly completed, have a total berthing space of 4,025 linear feet, shedded area of 517,000 square feet and open dock storage of I83,000 square feet, exclusive of filled ground, in rear of docks and piers. The total cargo capacity of the docks and piers of the port, both municipal and private, at one time, figuring loading per Square foot of 400 pounds for grain docks and . 250 pounds per Square foot for general cargo docks, after having deducted 15 per cent †. the areas above given for gangways and trucking space is, in round figures, as OHIOWS: - Grain docks---------------------------------------- tons of 2,000 pounds... 113, 500 Cargo docks.------------------------------------------------- - - - - - - do. . . . 124, 850 In addition to the above, the municipal grain elevator at the St. Johns terminal has a capacity for 1,000,000 bushels or 30,000 tons, and the Globe elevator for 250,000 fbushels or 7,500 tons. DRY DOCK FA CILITIES. The port at present has one dry dock, constructed and operated by the port of Port- land. It is a sectional, floating dry dock of 10,000 tons dead-weight capacity. Its length is 463 feet, inside width 82 feet, and depth over keel blocks 25 feet at low water The dock is equipped with electric derrick of 15-ton capacity and compressed air and electric current for operation of tools. The location of both the public and private water-front facilities herein described are shown on the general harbor map herewith, as are also the ship building plants, outfitting docks, etc. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2145 In connection with the ship outfitting docks there are in operation five sheer legs varying in capacity from 60 to 70 tons; derricks, locomotive and traveling cranes.

SEATTLE, WASH., DISTRICT. COL. C. L. STURDEVANT, ENGINEERS, IN CIIARGE. WILLAPA RIVER AND HARBOR, WASH. Willapa Harbor is an inlet of the Pacific Ocean, 30 miles north of the Columbia River. The entrance is about 4,000 feet wide and is obstructed by a bar. The harbor or bay is about 24 miles long by about 12 miles wide. The river is tidal for about 12 miles above its mouth, or to Willapa City. The tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 8.1 to 9.6 feet. The controlling depth over the bar is 23 feet at mean lower low water. The river channel has been dredged from 200 feet to 400 feet wide and 18 feet deep at mean lower low water from Willapa Bay to the junction of the North and South Forks, near Raymond and a channel 150 feet wide and 18 feet deep for a distance of 3,100 feet up the South Fork. The commerce consists mostly of logs, lumber, lumber products, fish and sea foods; log tows forming 70 per cent, requiring depths up to 11 feet; lumber, forming 29 per cent carried in steam schooners requiring depths from 15 to 20 feet. The commerce for 1918 amounted to 471,525 tons, valued at $4,180,349. Lumber schooners are loaded at the mills which have their own terminals. Local boats use the city wharf at South Bend. The present terminals are adequate for the existing commerce. There is no port administration, and the only port charges are for towing and wharfage on freight. The only water-front property owned by the cities of Raymond and South Bend are the street ends. The State of Washington owns approximately 2 miles of water front in Raymond, the plats of which have not been filed pending the establishment of pierhead lines in the Willapa River at that locality. There are no facilities for coaling or repairing vessels. Local steam vessels burn wood, which is obtained at the mills. Very little freight is transferred between rail and water and there is no demand for more extensive rail and water connections at the present time. The water terminals consist of open pile structures and are located on the banks of the river at each place. There are 11 wharves in this vicinity, 9 of which are owned by lumber manufacturers, 1 is owned by the city of South Bend, and 1 by the Northern Pacific Railway. The city and railway wharves are open to general public use. The terminals are generally efficient for the present traffic, although no modern methods of quick transfer of freight are used. 2197 21.98 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. There are no belt or spur lines connecting all the railroads with the water terminals. , Nine of the terminals have physical connection with at least one of the railways by means of spur tracks. The Northern Pacific Railway and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway both enter Raymond. The Northern Pacific Railway is the only railroad at South Bend. So far as known no contracts for the interchange of traffic between the water carriers and the railways exist. Improved highways have been constructed connect- ing city streets with the water terminals. The present terminals are believed sufficient for the existing commerce, and there is no necessity for publicly owned terminals at the present time. GRAYS HARBOR AND BAR ENTRANCE, WASH. Grays Harbor is a bay 17 miles long by 14 miles wide at the mouth of the Chehalis River, in the southwestern part of the State of Wash- ington, and 48 miles north of the Columbia River. It is connected to the Pacific Ocean by a channel 2,000 feet wide and 2 miles long. The controlling depth on the bar channel is 20 feet at mean lower low water. A channel has been dredged in the Chehalis River 200 feet wide from deep water in Grays Harbor to Cosmopolis, a distance of 15 miles, with a controlling depth of 18 feet at mean lower low water, and a channel 150 feet wide from Cosmopolis to Montesano, with a depth of 6 feet at mean lower low water. The tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 10.1 feet. The commerce consists mostly of the exportation of lumber, lumber products, and sea foods, and the importation of foodstuffs. Lumber is carried in steam schooners and sailing vessels, which require depths of from 15 to 20 feet. In recent years the commerce has averaged about 450,000 tons, valued at about $5,800,000. These vessels are loaded at the mill wharves. All the wharves are open pile structures and form adequate termi- nals for the existing traffic. The port commission of Grays Harbor owns 68 acres of water front between Aberdeen and Hoquiam suitable for the location of terminal and transfer facilities, but no action toward such construction has been taken as the existing facilities are sufficient for the traffic, which is limited to sailing vessels and steam schooners by the controlling depth on the bar at the harbor entrance. When the bar channel has been improved so that deep- draft vessels may enter the harbor the commission contemplates dredging the inner harbor and constructing adequate terminal facilities to accommodate these larger vessels. The community has shown great interest in the development of the port, and is making an earnest effort to improve the harbor and its shipping facilities. The port administration is carried on by the port commission, although no harbor master has been appointed, and very little is done along this line. The only port charges are for towing and wharfage on freight. Very little freight is transferred between rail and water and the present facilities are sufficient for the existing traffic. There are no facilities for coaling or repairing vessels on the harbor except that WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2199 oil fuel may be obtained from the Standard Oil Co.'s tanks, which are located just above Aberdeen. All of the water terminals at Aberdeen, Hoquiam, Montesano, and Cosmopolis are open-pile structures located on the river banks. In Aberdeen there are 20 wharves, 15 privately owned by lumber manufacturers, 3 by miscellaneous manufacturing companies, 1 is privately owned but used by the public for general landing of freight and 1 is jointly owned by the three railways serving this community. There are 10 wharves at Hoquiam, 6 owned by lumber manufac- tories, 3 are miscellaneous structures and 1 is publicly owned. At Montesano there are no water terminals. The wharves previously used have deteriorated to such an extent as to be no longer service- able. There is only one wharf at Cosmopolis. It is privately owned but open to public use. The terminals are considered generally efficient for existing commerce, although no modern methods of quick transfer of freight are used. There is no belt line connecting the terminals with all the railroads. All of the terminals at Aberdeen and Hoquiam have physical con- nection by means of spur tracks with at least one of the railroads which serve these communities. So far as known no contracts exist for the interchange of traffic between the water carriers and the railway. The Northern Pacific Railway, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway, and the Oregon–Washington Railroad & Naviga- tion Co. serve these communities. Improved highways have been constructed connecting the water terminals with the city streets. The present water terminals are believed sufficient for the existing traffic and there is no necessity for publicly owned terminals at the present time. PORT GAMBLE HARBOR, WASH. Port Gamble Harbor, located in the east side of Hood Canal, near its entrance, is 2% miles long by three-fourths of a mile wide, and has an entrance less than 2,000 feet in width. The depths in the bay are ample for all classes of vessels, varying from 21 to 66 feet at mean lower low water, but the entrance channel is narrow and does not exceed 22 feet in depth at mean lower low water. Therefore deep- draft vessels can enter the bay only during favorable tides. The mean range of tide is 6.7 feet. The commerce is all logs and timber products except for the general merchandise used by the community. The Puget Mill Co. owns the entire frontage on Port Gamble and operates the only mill on the harbor. The mill company owns and operates two wharves, one for loading lumber on vessels and the other for the use of local sound boats. There are two open pile terminals, owned by the Puget Mill Co. and located at the entrance to the bay on the west side. There is no railway connection at Port Gamble Harbor. As all of the interests on the harbor are owned º the mill company there is no necessity for publicly owned terminals at this time. OLYMPIA HARBOR, WASH. Olympia Harbor is near the southern end of Puget Sound at the head of Budd Inlet about 45 miles from Tacoma. The harbor is 24 miles long and 1 mile wide. A channel 12 feet deep at mean lower 2200 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. low water and 250 feet wide on the east side of the harbor has been dredged from Fourth Street Bridge in Olympia to deep water in Budd Inlet with a turning basin 500 feet wide at the inner end and a channel 12 feet deep at mean lower low water and 200 feet wide on the west side of the harbor with a turning basin 800 feet long and 400 feet wide. The tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher hich water is 14.8 feet. The commerce of the harbor is of a general character and is carried on by ocean-going vessels en- gaged in the lumber trade and by a variety of smaller classes of boats plying between the ports of Puget Sound. The commerce for 1918 amounted to 433,395 tons, valued at $3,898,513. The wharves are open pile structures and are adequate for the existing traffic. There are two wharves on the harbor located on the dredged channel. One is the property of the Standard Oil Co. and the other is used for general freight and passenger service and is open to all water carriers on equal terms limited by State laws. The terminals are generally efficient for the present traffic although no modern methods of quick transfer of freight are used. Physical connection by means of spur tracks exists between the water terminals and the railway. So far as known no contracts exist for the interchange of traffic between the water carriers and the railway. Improved highways have been constructed to the water terminals. The present terminals are believed sufficient for the existing commerce and there is no necessity for publicly owned terminals at the present time. TACOMA HARBOR, WASH. Tacoma is the second largest port on Puget Sound. Its harbor embraces all of Commencement Bay, an arm of Puget Sound, 30 miles south of Seattle. This bay is 2% miles wide and 4 miles long. In 1905 a channel was completed in the City Waterway 500 feet long and 25 feet deep at mean lower low water from deep water in Com- mencement Bay to the Eleventh Street Bridge and 18 feet deep to the Fourteenth Street Bridge and varying in width from 500 to 250 feet and 15 feet deep from the Fourteenth Street Bridge to the end of the waterway, a total length of 8,500 feet. The tidal range be- tween mean lower low and mean higher high water is 11.8 feet. Except at the south end of the harbor where the Puyallup River has deposited a large amount of silt the water is of ample depth to ac- commodate all vessels. In fact it is so deep close to shore that vessels are compelled to dock parallel to the shore at the face of the wharves. The commerce of d. port is general in character and is carried in all classes of vessels from small launches to the largest ocean-going steamers. The chief commodities are lumber, logs, grain, raw cotton, and general merchandise. The terminals are all open pile structures and are located on the water front and on the dredged channels at the head of the bay. Fight is unloaded mostly by trucks and cargo booms on the VēSSéIS. The administration of the port is under the direction of a harbor master, an official of the department of public affairs. The develop- ment of transfer and terminal facilities is under the control of the H. Doc. 652, 66–2. BARGE FOR SHIPPING BULK GRAN, TACOMA, WASH, H.

Wharfage charges are made on freight unloaded on the terminals, charges ranging from 25 cents per ton for general commodities to $1 for explosives and gasoline. The city of Tacoma owns about 4.2 miles of water front, 3.6 of which are located in front of Point Defiance Park. The Northern Pacific Railway has coal bunkers on the water front at which vessels may be coaled. The delivery capacity is 600 tons per hour, with a storage capacity of 16,100 tons. - w The following list includes the most important warehouses and wharves on Tacoma Harbor: Puget Sound Flouring Mills Co.: Frontage, 800 feet; capacity, 16,000 tons; loading capacity, 200 tons per hour.

The water terminals are all open pile structures and are located on the west shore of Commencement Bay and on the waterways which have been dredged in the tide flats at the head of this bay. There are 36 such terminals. Seven are owned by lumber manu- factories, 3 by flouring mills, 2 are shipyards, 12 are miscellaneous structures, 8 are owned by railway companies, 3 are publicly owned, and there is one smelter wharf. These terminals are used for the loading and transfer of freight by all water carriers and are con- sidered generally efficient for the traffic which they serve. There is no belt line connecting the terminals with all the railroads. Thirty-two of the 36 terminals have physical connections with at least one of the railroads serving the territory, by means of spur tracks. It is understood that contracts for the interchange of traffic. by prorating to and from foreign ports exist between the railroads 2202 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. and water carriers. The Great Northern Railway; Northern Pacific Railway; Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway; and the Oregon- Washington Railroad & Navigation Co. serve this harbor. All of the terminals are connected with city streets by improved highways. A port commission has recently been formed to take over the devel- opment and administration of the harbor. It has under study a plan of improvement which includes the construction and operation of modern terminals with quick methods of freight transfer. A plan of improvement has not as yet been adopted by the commission. Only a small part of the available water front of Tacoma is under P. ºntrol the larger part being owned or controlled by the I’8,1]TO8,CIS. SEATTLE HARBOR AND LAKE WASHINGTON SHIP CANAL, WASH. Seattle Harbor embraces all of Elliott Bay, an arm of Puget Sound about 135 miles from the Pacific Ocean. It is bounded by Magnolia Bluff on the north and by Duwamish Head on the south- west. It is 34 miles long by 2 miles wide, with a water front of 23.5 miles, 5.2 miles having been developed, leaving 18.3 miles to be developed. This does not include Shilshole Bay or Lakes Union and Washington, which have 90 miles of shore line in addition. The harbor affords a berthing capacity of 41,776 linear feet. The depths of water in the harbor are excessive and anchorage is only possible near shore. That part of the harbor under maintenance by the United States and which this report is intended to cover comprises the east, west, and Duwamish waterways. The east and west waterways were dredged and the Duwamish waterway is now being dredged by local interests. The existing project, adopted by the river and harbor act approved March 2, 1919, contemplates the maintenance of the east and west waterways to a depth of 34 feet at mean lower low water with a width of 750 feet for distances of 6,500 and 5,200 feet, respectively, from the pierhead line in Elliott Bay; and for the maintenance of the Duwamish waterway to a depth of 20 feet at mean lower low water and a width of 150 feet for a distance of 12,400 feet when completed by local interests. The range of tide between mean lower low and mean higher high water is 11.3 feet. The east waterway is an extension of the main water front of Seattle and is the natural outlet of the industrial center of Seattle. On it are located the wharves and plants of extensive flour and cereal mills, of the Standard Oil Co., and of several other industrial works, including two of the largest shipbuilding concerns in the Northwest... Here also are located the freight terminals of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway and three of the terminals of the Port of Seattle. -- The commerce on the waterway is general in character and the waterway is used by all classes of vessels from launches to the largest deep draft steamers. * The six public terminals of the harbor are owned and operated by the Port of Seattle, a corporation under the administration of three commissioners elected by popular vote of the port district which is coterminous with King § but independent of State, ** H.

A description of the three located on east waterway follows: . . . . . • . The Stacy Street Terminal has two cargo sheds, each 90 feet wide, 750 feet long, with a total storage area of 130,000 square feet. The vessel slip located between these sheds is 212 feet wide, 800 feet long, º 30 feet deep at mean lower low water. There is a four-story reinforced concrete warehouse at the head of this slip, with a total floor area of 90,000 square feet. It is provided with i. electric elevators, two spiral chutes and electric tractors and trailers. - The Hanford Street Terminal has a wharf supported on creosote piles with deck of double plank construction, having a 20-foot asphalt covered driveway in the center. This wharf has 1,500 linear feet. for dockage along its face and south side, with a controlling depth of 35 feet at mean lower low water. This terminal is provided with a cargo shed, a hay shed, and a grain elevator. Its equipment includes Brown hoist portable conveyors, gravity, rolls, electric elevators, and inclined chutes for the rapid transfer of freight. It is served also by 1% miles of public spur railroad tracks. The main cargo shed is 90 feet wide, 1,300 feet long, and two stories in height, with a total floor area of 175,000 square feet. The hay shed with a floor area of 4,600 square feet is equipped with two baling machines and a vertical conveyor connecting with the second story of the cargo shed. These sheds are of timber construction covered with corrugated galvanized iron, which construction is common to all transfer sheds owned by the commission. The grain elevator. located at the rear of the cargo shed, is a reinforced concrete, fire- #. structure containing 133 bins with a total capacity of 1,100,000 ushels. Its mechanical equipment driven by electricity will un- load 95 cars of grain each 24 hours or will deliver 2,000 bushels per hour to vessels. - The Spokane Street Terminal located on the south side of the east waterway turning basin and opposite the Hanford Street Terminal, has a wharf with 1,400 linear feet of dockage on the waterway and turning basin with a depth of 35 feet at mean lower low water. It is constructed like that of Hanford Street Terminal and carries a cargo shed, a cold storage and warehouse building, a fish storage building, and buildings for the manufacture and storage of ice. The cargo shed is 90 feet wide, 900 feet long, and two stories in height, with a net storage area of 155,000 square feet. It also is provided with a 20-foot asphalt roadway running its entire length. It is equipped with two electric elevators, the larger of 9 tons capac- ity, with a 10 by 24 foot platform, also with portable second story platform for receiving slip loads from ships. The cold storage and warehouse building is of reinforced concrete, 150 feet wide, 200 feet long, and seven stories in height, with a total floor area of nearly 175,000 square feet. . It is completely insulated with cork board and cooled by forced air in circulating system. It is equipped with three high-speed electric elevators. . . . . . . . . . . The fish storage building is one story high and approximately 120 by 200 feet in plan, having a storage area of 25,000 square feet. It contains four freezers for the freezing of fish and six large rooms for • * * = . . * * * * : * * * * * * * * * * ~ * : * * 2204 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 125,000 pounds of fish can be frozen each day and 2,000,000 pounds stored. Three electrically operated derricks facilitate the unloading of fish from boats. . The ice storage building is approximately 35 feet by 100 feet in plan and 50 feet high, with a capacity for storing 5,000 tons of ice. . It is equipped with two automatic ice elevators, one for delivery of ice from the compressor building into storage, the other for supplying ice to car or to crushers whence it can be dis- tributed to vessels or to fish packing rooms. The fish and ice storage buildings are of timber construction, insulated with granulated cork between two thicknesses of tongue and groove lumber interlined with building paper. The compressor building is a one story, reinforced concrete struc- ture, approximately 100 by 120 feet in plan, equipped with three ammonia compressors and an ice manufacturing plant. There is also on this terminal a one-story building 100 by 109 feet with net floor area of 9,640 square feet, used for sorting and conditioning fish prior to shipment or storage. The west waterway is an extension of the Duwamish waterway, which is the outlet from the river of that name. On the west water- way are located two large shipyards, two flouring mills, one dry dock, and several smaller plants, all of which have wharves adequate for the commerce involved. On the Duwamish waterway there are located nine shipbuilding plants and several small manufacturing plants and two public wharves, one the property of King County and the other the property of the Duwamish Waterway Commission. Great interest is taken in the development of the port and its facilities, and all of the terminals are used to a large extent. There are no port charges. Wharfage is charged on freight at published rates, which for the more important items are given in the following table: Acid: RateS.

Takes Union and Washington are connected with Puget Sound through Shilshole Bay, by the Lake Washington Ship Canal with locks at Ballard. This canal has two locks. The larger lock is 825 feet long, 80 feet wide, and has 25 feet of water at extreme low tide. The small lock is 125 feet long by 30 feet wide with a depth of 12 feet at extreme low tide. These locks were constructed by the General Government. The canal was excavated by the State of Washington and King County. The Port of Seattle owns and operates a terminal on the canal known as the Salmon Bay Terminal, which comprises 36 acres of land with a wharf 237 feet wide by 360 feet long, which is used for lumber transshipment and storage of oil. This wharf is provided with a 75-ton derrick. King County owns a wharf on Lake Union as well as several smaller wharves on Lake Washington for use of lake steamers and launches. There are excellent sites for the location of terminals on the shores of these lakes, but these sites have not been developed as the terminal facilities on the harbor are sufficient for the present commerce. The commerce of Seattle for 1918 amounted to 5,947,917 tons, valued at $792,120,561. The water terminals are either open pile or solid fill structures or a combination of these methods of construction, and are located on the shores of Elliott Bay and on the east, west, and Duwamish water- ways. There are 48 principal wharves privately owned on Seattle Harbor classified as follows: Commercial wharves, 23; industrial wharves, 18; shipbuilding plants, 7. In addition there are five terminals owned and operated by the Port of Seattle. All of the commercial wharves as well as the properties of the Port of Seattle are open to the public on equal terms.

The port commission also has under construction a very large terminal at Smiths Cove. These terminals are considered adequate for the existing commerce. Common user railway tracks connect the various terminals with the four transcontinental railways that serve this port. So far as known no contracts exist for the interchange of traffic between the water carriers and the railways. with the city streets by improved highways. LAKE WASHINGTON SHIP CANAL. All of the terminals are connected The terminals are located along the banks of the Lake Washington Ship Canal and on Lake Union and are all open-pile structures. There are eight terminals on the canal and lake, two are the property of lumber mills, three are miscellaneous structures and three are 2208 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. publicly owned. The publicly owned wharves are open to use by all water carriers. The terminals are generally efficient for the existing traffic. Two of the lumber mills are equipped with loco- motive cranes for use in loading lumber. The Salmon Bay Terminal of the Port of Seattle is equipped with a 5-ton stiff-leg derrick and shear legs with a capacity of 75 tons. This terminal is mostly used by Alaska and Puget Sound fishing boats and for the transshipment of lumber. Five of the water terminals have physical connection with the railroad by means of spur tracks. The Great Northern Railway and the Northern Pacific Railway jointly own a belt line on the north bank of the canal between the locks and Fourteenth Avenue, NW. So far as known no contracts exist for the interchange of traffic between the water carriers and the railway. Improved highways connect the water terminals with city streets. The present water terminals are believed sufficient for the existing traffic and there is no necessity for a greater number of publicly owned terminals at the present time. EVERETT HARBOR, AND SNOHOMISH RIVER, WASH. Everett Harbor, an arm of Puget Sound, lies at the mouth of the Snohomish River, about 30 miles north of Seattle. In its original condition the river emptied into Puget Sound where it formed extensive tide flats, exposed at low water. The river was later diverted into the harbor, a pile and brush breakwater con- structed to protect the harbor from storms and a channel 75 feet wide and 8 feet deep at mean lower low water dredged from deep water in Everett Harbor to the mouth of Steamboat Slough, a distance of 5.5 miles. The extreme tidal range is 18 feet. The range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 11.3 feet. Extensive shoaling has taken place in the dredged channel and in Everett Harbor and the channel can be used only by boats of light draft. The commerce consists chiefly of lumber traffic and towing of logs and piles, which require drafts of from 3 to 14 feet. The lower or south end of the harbor has a sufficient depth of water to accommodate all classes of vessels. The com- merce for 1918 amounted to 1,168,569 tons valued at $7,788,665. Log towing on the river is done by stern-wheel river steamers and by small gasoline launches. Log towing from Everett Harbor to other ports on Puget Sound is done by launches and towboats with drafts of from 6 to 14 feet. The present terminals are adequate for the existing traffic. . It is believed that this commerce will increase with better terminals and harbor facilities, and a port commission has been formed to take over the administration of the port and improve these facilities so as to stimulate this development. There are no port charges except wharf- age charges on freight. There is ample room for the location of terminal and transfer facilities on the tide flats outside the present jetty and , along the water front of Everett. There are no facilities for repairing vessels on the harbor but coal may be obtained from bunkers. The water terminals are all open pile structures, located on the water front and on the banks of the Snohomish River. The terminals WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2209 are generally efficient for the traffic served, although no modern meth- ods of quick transfer of freight are used. There are 14 terminals on the harbor and river. Seven are owned by lumber mills, 3 are miscel- ſaneous structures, 1 is a shipbuilding plant, 1 is owned by the Great Northern Railway but is leased to the Seattle-Everett Dock and Wharfage Co., and two are publicly owned. There is no belt line connecting the water terminals with all the railways. Eleven of the 14 terminals have connection with at least one of the three railways serving this community by means of spur tracks. The Great Northern, Northern Pacific, and Chicago, Mil- waukee & St. Paul Railways enter Everett. Planked roads connect the terminals with city streets. The port commission has under consideration extensive improve- ments which include the rediversion of the Snohomish River to its former channel; the construction of terminal facilities with modern methods of transferring freight; the dredging of a deep-water channel in the tide flats at the head of the harbor and the reconstruction of the present breakwater to give the harbor better protection from storms. This project has not received the approval of the local authorities, and the plan of improvement is not available for publica- t10n. - SKAGIT RIVER, WASH. The Skagit River enters Puget Sound 50 miles north of Seattle. The river has been improved by the Géneral Government by the onstruction of a training dike at its mouth and regulating dikes and mattress sills at the various mouths of the delta through which the river discharges its waters; also by removing snags. The tidal range hºween mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 11.4 eet. The commerce amounted to 733,022 tons, with a value of $11,533,- 174 during 1918, the chief items being condensed milk and logs. The vessels using the river are all stern-wheel steamers, with drafts of 3 to 6 feet. The only terminal facilities are at Mount Vernon, where there is one wharf which is open to the public on equal terms. At other points landings are made on the river bank. The present terminals are sufficient for the class and amount of traffic involved. There is no port administration nor port charges. The river furnishes no facilities for coaling, repairing or storage of freight, except to a very limited extent in the warehouse on the wharf at Mount Vernon. Water terminals are located along the water front at Mount Vernon. There are no wharves or water terminals at any other points along the river, but steamers make landings at suitable points on the banks of the river. The water terminals at Mount Vernon are open to all water carriers on equal terms, subject to wharfage limited by State laws. These terminals are generally efficient for the traffic which they serve. No physical connection exists between the water terminals and the railroads. Freight is transferred by teams. A branch line of the Great Nºrtº runs up the Skagit Valley to points above the 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—139 2210 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. limits of navigation. The Northern Pacific Railway crosses the river at Sedro Woolley. So far as known no contracts exist for the inter- change of traffic between the water carriers and the railways. Im- proved highways have been constructed to the water terminals. The present water terminals are believed sufficient for the existing traffic, and there is no necessity for publicly owned terminals at the present time. SWINOMISH SLOUGH, WASH. Swinomish Slough is an inland passage 11 miles long between Sara- toga Passage and Padilla Bay in the northwestern part of the State of Washington, about 60 miles north of Seattle. The commerce on the slough is of a general nature, the chief items being grain, hay, fish, logs, and lumber. There is one wharf at La Conner, a small town on the east bank of the slough near its southern end. It is open to the public use on equal terms. There is no necessity for publicly owned terminals at this time as the waterway is simply a convenient route for the safe passage of small craft. The tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 11.1 feet. Water terminals are located along the waterway, and while they are very small they are efficient for the limited amount of commerce that passes over them. No modern methods for quick transfer of freight are used. These water terminals are open to all water carriers on equal terms, subject to wharfage charges limited by State laws. Terminals are all private property. There are no railroads at this point. Improved highways have been constructed to the water terminals. The present water terminals are believed sufficient for the existing traffic and there is no necessity for publicly owned terminals at the present time. ANACORTES HARBOR, WASH. The city of Anacortes occupies the northern point of Fidalgo Island, near the eastern end of San Juan de Fuca Strait. It has a population of about 6,000. The harbor of Anacortes is partially on the north and partially on the east of the city. The principal wharves are on the north, where the water is deep and the tidal currents strong. Cap Sante Waterway is on the east. It is well sheltered, but is shallow, the depths ranging from 1 to 6 feet at mean lower low water. The mean range of tide is 6.3 feet. The existing project provides for a channel 150 to 250 feet wide and 12 feet deep at mean lower low water running from deep water in the harbor to the head of the waterway. - The commerce is chiefly in lumber and fish, and here are located some of the largest fish canneries on the Pacific Coast. There are no publicly owned wharves at this port. The existing project requires that local interests shall construct a publicly owned terminal on Cap Sante Waterway to furnish accommo- dations for the fishing fleet. It is believed that the port should be provided with a publicly owned terminal located on Cap Sante Waterway when this waterway is dredged to the project dimensions. The port is generally efficient for the traffic which it serves. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2211 The water terminals are all open pile structures located on Guemes Channel and they are privately owned, but open to public use by all water carriers on equal terms. The Great Northern Railway is the only railway entering Anacortes. It has spur tracks leading to the most important terminals. All the wharves are connected with the city streets by improved highways. BELLINGHAM HARBOR, WASH. Bellingham Harbor is a part of Bellingham Bay, an arm of Puget Sound in the northwestern part of the State of Washington, about 18 miles south of the international boundary line and about 100 miles from Seattle. The General Government has dredged in this harbor a waterway 350 feet wide extending from deep water in the bay to the mouth of Whatcom Creek. The outer 3,800 feet is 26 feet deep and the inner 1,300 feet is 18 feet. The range of tide between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 9.8 feet. At the head of this waterway is a small wharf used by all local Puget Sound steamers for the transfer of freight and passengers. There are also several industrial wharves on this waterway. The commerce consists mostly of canned fish, logs, poles, timber, and dairy products. Some of the vessels visiting the harbor have drafts as much as 22 feet. Most of them, however, are small fishing boats and log-towing steamers of lesser draft. All of the terminals are open to all water carriers on equal terms, subject to wharfage charges limited by State laws. The city of Bellingham owns two tide-land lots and has leased from the State of Washington the tide land in front of one of these lots, on which it has under construction a publicly owned terminal. It is believed that this terminal will be sufficient to care for the existing commerce. The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway operates a car-transfer slip where cars are transferred by barge to Seattle. There does not seem to be any necessity for more extended publicly owned terminals at this time. Fuel oil and coal on lighters may be obtained. No facilities exist for repairing vessels nor does the port afford storage space for any considerable amount of commodities. - The water terminals are located around the bay and on Whatcom Creek waterway. There are 15 terminals on the harbor, all open-pile structures. Four are owned by lumber mills, eight are miscellaneous structures, two are publicly owned, and one is a car ferry of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway. . These terminals are gen- erally efficient, although no modern methods of quick transfer of freight are used. There is no belt-line railway connecting the various water terminals with all the railroads. So far as known no contracts exist for the interchange of traffic between the water carriers and the railway. The Great Northern Railway and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway serve this community. Improved highways have been con- structed connecting the water terminals with the city streets. 2212 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. POLSON BAY, FLATHEAD LAKE, MONT. Polson Bay is an arm of Flathead Lake, Mont. The bay is 5 miles wide by 6 miles long. . It is shallow and the bottom is covered by a large number of bowlders. During, 1910 a channel 100 feet wide, with a turning basin near the wharf, was cleared of bowlders for a depth of 6 feet at low water. There is one wharf at Polson which is used by the lake steamers which have loaded drafts up to 6 feet. It is open to public use. The present terminals are adequate for the existing commerce, which is general in character, and there is no necessity for publicly Owned terminals at this time. tºº - & There is no railway at Polson. NOME HARBOR, ALASKA. Nome Harbor is the portion of Norton Sound in front of the city of Nome. It is a shallow, open roadstead. The Snake River, a small stream about 20 miles long, discharges into Nome Harbor at Nome. The existing project provides for two parallel timber and concrete jetties, each 400 feet long, at the mouth of Snake River, and a channel 75 feet wide and 8 feet deep at mean lower low water from Norton Sound through Snake River to the mouth of Bourbon and Dry Creeks, in the city of Nome, ending in a basin of similar depth 200 feet wide and 250 feet long, and revetting the banks of the river. The length of the section included in the project is 1,500 feet. The tidal º between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 1.4 feet. - The imports are general in character. The exports are gold, tin, antimony, copper, graphite, tungsten ores, and reindeer meat, and amounted to 13,557 tons, valued at $1,141,312, during 1918. Freight from the United States is carried in ocean-going steam vessels which are unloaded by lighters. Small launches are used to distribute this to the outlying settlements and mining properties. There is one wharf at Nome at which the freight which is lightered from the vessels is unloaded. This terminal is open to the public on equal terms. While the terminal is inadequate, a better one can not be maintained, due to the ice pack which forms in the harbor during the winter. The improvement of the mouth of the Snake River will provide a harbor for the barges and small vessels. The city of Nome has under consideration the construction of a public wharf in the Snake River when the improvement is completed. - Publicly owned terminals, while desirable, can not be maintained at a sufficient depth to accommodate deep-draft vessels. The mu- nicipal authorities contemplate the construction of public terminals in the Snake River basin after the existing project of improvement is completed. - There are no railways at Nome. A city street connects the wharf with the city of Nome. : WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. WILLAPA RIVER, WASH. SOUTH BENID MILLS & TIMBER CO. CITY OF SOUTH BENID. NORTHERN PACIFIC RY.

HONOLULU HARBOR, HAWAII. This harbor is located on the south coast of the island of Oahu, about 2,100 miles from San Francisco. It is an inlet in a coral reef protected by an artificial island formed from dredge spoil. The har- bor proper has an average width of 1,200 feet and a length of 4,000 feet. The entrance channel is straight, 3,000 feet long, and has a minimum width of 400 feet. The existing project provides for an entrance channel 400 feet wide, and an inner harbor of a general width of 1,200 feet, with an enlarge- ment 800 by 1,000 feet near the head of the harbor. The project depth is 35 feet at mean lower low tide, and the mean tidal range is 1.9 feet, with an extreme range of 2.3 feet. The exports consist mainly of sugar and canned pineapples, while the imports are varied and consist of all kinds of manufactured goods, foodstuffs, fuel, fertilizers, clothing, building material, etc. The in- ventoried value of the commerce has increased from $33,781,816 in 1906 to $195,288,156 in 1917. The number of vessels has increased from 736 in 1906 to 2,691 in 1917, with a traffic of 2,037,424 tons. The net registered tonnage in 1906 was 1,808,219, and increased to 5,015,383 in 1917. The usual limit of draft for loaded boats, trans-Pacific, is 32% feet, while that of projected vessels for the Pacific mail service is 35 feet. A large number of trans-Pacific steamers call at this port for fuel. The Oahu Railway & Land Co.'s terminal consists of two wharves and one pier, affording a length of dockage of 1,350 feet with sheds and 1,200 feet without sheds. It is equipped with four elec- trically operated sugar conveyors having a capacity of 480 tons per hour. This is the only terminal connected with the railroad. Fifteen of the 22 wharves or piers in the harbor are owned by the Territory of Hawaii, and afford 7,600 feet of dockage with sheds and 2,900 feet without storage sheds. A private slip and coaling plant have been recently completed at a cost exceeding $500,000. There are two electrically driven towers with gantry cranes and gravity chutes. In addition to the above plant, the Inter-Island Steam Navigation tion Co. owns two automatic bunkering barges, with a total capacity of 300 tons per hour. The coaling facilities are adequate. There is also a large modern coaling station at Pearl Harbor, 10 miles from Honolulu. The Standard, Associated, and Union Oil Co.'s operate storage tanks for fuel, and are connected to a wharf by private lines, with service connection, owned by the Territory, to eight other wharves or piers. The fuel facilities need further extension. 164681—H. Doc. 652, 66–2—141 2241 2242 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Docking facilities.—There are two floating dry docks in Honolulu Harbor owned by the Inter-Island Steam Navigation Co. One has a lifting capacity of 4,500 tons, and the other of 2,500 tons. These two units are to be combined so as to give a lifting capacity of 7,000 tons. There are also efficient machine shops for repairing vessels. One of the largest dry docks in the world is nearing completion at Pearl Harbor, 10 miles by water from Honolulu, which will be opened to commercial needs when not required for naval purposes. This naval station is equipped to make all kinds of repairs. The terminals are being gradually improved as the commerce in- creases and territorial funds become available. There is only one railroad terminal, which has connection with only two wharves and one pier. All terminals should be connected by a belt railroad, and this work is being planned. All harbors are governed by a board of harbor commissioners ap- ointed by the Territory. It has full control and management of the j territorial harbor improvements, docks, wharves, piers, and shipping throughout the Territory. It fixes the port charges, appoints the pilots, harbormasters, etc. The prosperity of the islands depends upon the rapid and economi- cal shipment of its sugar, canned pineapples, etc., and great interest is manifested in the harbor improvements and future commerce. The creation of a “free port” is being considered, and plans have been prepared for future terminals which will cost approximately $10,000,000. KAHULUI HARBOR, HAWAII. This harbor is on the north coast of the island of Maui, about 110 miles from Honolulu. It is an inlet dredged in a coral reef and has a general width of 700 feet, with an area of about 30 acres, having a minimum depth of 35 feet at mean lower low tide, and is protected by two breakwaters. The mean tidal range is 2.4 feet. The existing project provides for an eastern breakwater 2,200 feet long, which has been completed, and for a western breakwater 2,000 feet long, which is 76 per cent completed; also for a dredged basin 35 feet deep and 900 feet wide, of which 700 feet has already been dredged. Sugar is the principal export, while the imports are varied, con- sisting mainly of foodstuffs, building material, fertilizers, live stock, etc. The inventoried value of the commerce increased from $1,800,000 in 1908 to $27,762,048 in 1918. The usual limit of draft for loaded boats, trans-Pacific, is 30 feet, and interisland 18 feet. There is no wharf for trans-Pacific boats and only one pier, which accommodates boats not exceeding 20 feet draft. It is owned by the Kahului Railroad Co., and was built under a license from the Territory. The Territory can purchase it after six months' notice. Under the terms of the license, all rates and regulations are subject to the approval of the board of harbor commissioners, who are the same as at Honolulu. The Kahului Railroad Co. has its terminal on the pier and also has a large storage shed for sugar on the wharf, which is equipped with mechanical conveyors. The sugar is transferred to trans-Pacific ; H. Doc. 552 65–2. FLOAT|NG DRY DOCK, HONOLULU, T. H. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2243 steamers by means of lighters. Molasses and oil are conveyed directly between ships and tanks on shore by means of pipes. The Federal improvements have made it possible to handle in an economical manner and with safety a commerce valued at $27,762,048 in 1918. In addition to the Federal improvement, the Territory has spent $3,657.81 in dredging a slip, and the Kahului Railroad Co. has spent approximately $333,000 on the harbor. A wharf should be constructed for trans-Pacific steamers and the present pier should be owned by the Territory, but as the Territorial funds are limited, and the commerce is now economically handled, further improvements in the terminal facilities will be necessarily slow. There are no docking facilities here and only ordinary repairs to machinery can be made. Extensive facilities are not necessary because of the proximity of the facilities at Honolulu. IIILO HARBOR, HAWAII. This harbor is on the east coast of the island of Hawaii, about 200 miles from Honolulu. It is an open roadstead protected by a breakwater. The existing project provides for a rubble mound breakwater and the dredging of shoals at the entrance to Kuhio Bay. The shoals have been dredged and the breakwater is to be built as far as the estimate will permit. The estimated cost was $1,700,000, of which $374,000 remains to be appropriated. The improvement has been stopped for lack of funds. Further protection will be required for the safe and economical handling of commerce. There is one terminal having a wharf connected with the railroad and a depth of water of 33 feet at mean lower low tide. The average range of tide is 2.3 feet. The length of dockage with shed is 1,150 feet, equipped with 4 unit conveyors of latest design for handling sugar either from storage or cars to steamers, with a capacity of 4,000 sacks per hour. The usual draft for loaded boats, trans-Pacific, is 32% feet, and interisland 18 feet. Freight is also Hightered from steamers to a warehouse on Waiakea stream. An additional wharf is being planned by the Territory, but it is not expected that any other large expenditures will be made for terminal facilities until the breakwater has been extended so as to make it safe for vessels to lie at wharves during storms. While ordinary repairs to machinery can be made, extensive facilities for repairs, docking, and coaling are not required at the present time because of the proximity of such facilities at Honolulu. The regulations and rates are the same as for Honolulu Harbor. The value of the commerce has increased from $6,623,464 in 1906 to $43,388,876 in 1917, the main item of export being sugar.

SAN JUAN, PORTO RICO, DISTRICT. COL. S. W. ROESSLER, U. S. ARMY IN CHARGE. SAN JUAN HARBOR, PORTO RICO. San Juan Harbor is on the north coast of Porto Rico, 1,380 nautical miles south-southeast from New York. It lies within and forms part of San Juan Bay, a land-locked sheet of water, situated about midway of the island of Porto Rico. The inner harbor, which has been largely developed by dredging, lies on the north side of the bay, and only about 110 acres, or 4 per cent of the entire harbor area, is navigable for seagoing vessels. The minimum depth at the bar is 35 feet at mean low water, the average rise and fall of the tide being 1.2 feet. This harbor has been under improvement since 1882, first under a Spanish local harbor board until 1898, and since then by the American Government. Under the first American project for improvement, authorized by Congress in 1907 and completed in 1911, the 30-foot area was increased from 56 acres to about 105 acres. A second project for improvement, authorized in 1917 and now being carried out, provides for an extension to about 230 acres of the 30-foot area within the harbor opposite and along the city and for some dis- tance east of it. There were no terminal facilities in this harbor during Spanish times, other than a low masonry quay wall about 1,400 feet long on the city front, augmented farther east by a rough rip-rap shore. From both of these freight was loaded and unloaded by hand and by small traveling derricks upon lighters, and carried to and from the larger vessels that were anchored in the middle of the harbor. Plans for the construction of a public screw pile pier in front of the city had been made, but the outbreak of war prevented its execution. Since the American occupation, and especially since the revival of the sugar industry, which before the war was practically nil, the ter- minal facilities have been much elaborated and modernized. This was made necessary by the expansion and improvement of old and new railroads all over the island, and the establishment of new trans- portation lines with the United States and Europe. Before that time the commerce in San Juan Harbor had been entirely local, as it had been in other harbors of the island, carried principally upon oxcarts, and embraced only a small zone in the country immediately back of it. Of late years, it has changed its character to that of a main distribution point for the whole island, by rail and by water. The export and import trade of Porto Rico was valued at $16,000,000 in 1900, and in 1913 it had reached $85,000,000, about 44 per cent of which passed through San Juan Harbor. Simultaneously with the 2255 22.56 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. expansion of trade since 1900, the development of landing facilities took place at the same rapid rate. There are now three large piers of 2,855 linear feet of berthing space, 1 large dock of 910 linear feet, and 1 coal dock of 610 linear feet frontage, all of which are owned by |. parties. There is also one modern bulkhead 2,130 feet in ength, built and owned by the Insular Government, making a total in round numbers of 6,500 linear feet available for the landing of largeves- sels having a draft of from 20 to 26 feet. The present prevailing depth at these structures will be increased shortly to 30 feet. In addition, about 530 linear feet of the old Spanish quay wall in the northwesternsec- tion of the harbor which is owned by the Insular Government, is used for ferry purposes and as a general landing for launches, small schooners, and sailboats. A wooden pier 290 feet long, at the extreme point of the former navy yard, at present under the jurisdiction of the Light- house Establishment, is also strictly used for local commerce and trade only. At both the quay wall and this pier the prevailing depths are from 8 to 20 feet. There are a great number of insignificant piers and old wharves within the limits of the harbor and around the bay, which are suitable only for small boat landings and local traffic. Just at present the terminal facilities appear to be sufficient, but with the expected revival of the European trade they will prove inade- quate. The larger piers and docks, and especially the recently con- structed bulkhead, have ample storage room and sheds, amounting in all to about 234,000 square feet of floor space, for the requirements of local and insular commerce. Quite recently, however, a strong movement has been started by commercial bodies and prominent shippers to have this harbor made a stopping point for European ships trading between Europe and Panama, and the building of a large bonded warehouse is contemplated for the storage of foreign goods eventually to be distributed over the adjacent islands. It re- mains to state that neither the municipality nor the Navy or War Departments of the Federal Government have at present any ade- uate landing place in this harbor. The insular bulkhead recently nished is occupied most of the time by large and small schooners and small steamers hailing from the United States or from the adja- cent islands. . The facilities for a “rapid turn-around of vessels” at this bulkhead are not the best. The numerous Army transports that frequently landed here during the past four years were of necessity compelled to land at the existing private piers, seriously interfering in many cases with local commerce. The ships of the Navy were com- p. to anchor in the harbor or, when necessary, to land at the light- ouse pier at the former navy yard. The plan for pier and bulkhead lines along the northerly shore of San Juan Harbor, approved by the Secretary of War on May 25, 1912, fixed a location for two more piers in addition to three piers already in existence. They are, respectively, roposed pier No. 3 and proposed pier No. 4. The latter site should i. reserved for a public pier for municipal and insular purposes, and No. 3 could be reserved for a Federal pier for the use of the Army and Navy, as it would offer better facilities for direct land communica- tion with the military reservations at and near San Juan. With one exception, the freight transfer facilities at all the piers and landings mentioned are of the same character—that is, each vessel uses its own winch and tackle. The exception is the coal dock, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2257 which handles the coal received and shipped with a modern traveling gantilever gantry at the dock, and delivers coal to vessels at anchor in a float Pºiº with a small elevator. The freight received from or shipped by foreign steamers, which rarely go to the piers, is still transferred to and from the shore in lighters, the work on the shore being, entirely done by manual labor. During Spanish times the American Railroad Co., which is principally owned by Frenchmen, had no connection with the waterfront, but during the past 15 years it has gradually extended its tracks to all the piers and docks in the harbor, so that now an uninterrupted connection exists with the main line. The main line encircles the whole island, excepting a short section in the eastern part now under construction. The transmis- sion of all classes of freight at San Juan from and to the interior of the island has thus been greatly facilitated, and is carried on on a large scale, notwithstanding the fact that the same company has established at other ports on the island similar but smaller facilities for the exchange of freight by rail and water. . The existing connection of all harbor terminals with the railroad is first class, and is greatly augmented by the fine system of highways, built in late years by the insular government, radiating in all direc- tions from the water front and from the city proper. The ox-cart and horse-cart distribution formerly in use has been replaced by heavy motor trucks, accomplishing the transfer in larger quantities and at greater speed than before. - Coal can be obtained at the coal dock previously mentioned, from which large shipments are also made by rail to the interior of the island. Both the Standard Oil Co. and Texas Oil Co. have erected large storage tanks near the water front adjoining the railroad and both connect with the piers by pipe lines. Two large machine shops and foundries, not far from the customhouse and the old quay wall, are fitted, with the necessary machinery to make repairs to ships of all classes when afloat. There are, however, no hauling-out iii. and no shipyard or ship railway in this harbor, and vessels requiring cleaning or repairs below the water line go to St. Thomas, about 85 miles east of San Juan. - - The present water front is owned entirely by the insular govern- ment, except the marine hospital and lighthouse reservations at La Puntilla, formerly part of the United States navy yard. All piers and wharves are privately owned and open for public use with the exceptions of Pier No. 1 and the San Antonio Dock, where only those ships belonging to the companies that own the docks are allowed to land without special permission. The administration of the harbor is in the hands of the commis- sioner of the interior of Porto Rico and a local harbor board, of which the commissioner is the chairman. The board collects the harbor dues from all vessels arriving and the mooring charges from those using the insular bulkhead. The owners of the piers and wharves charge special rates for landing and wharfage, generally by the day, which are fixed by the public service commission of the island. There are no joint rates between rail and water carriers as the present legal status of both railroad and steamship lines prevents such an arrange- ment. 164681—H.

WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2273 expended recently $15,000,000 in terminal and transfer facilities, equipping a large part of the water front with modern wharves, steel sheds, warehouses, elevators, and appliances for loading and unloading. Port charges.—The port charges are as follows: TERMINAL CHARGEs. BAR AND RIVER PILOTAGE (BORNE BY VESSEL). (a) Across bar, $3.50 per foot of draft for vessels drawing 10 feet or less; $4 per foot of draft for vessels drawing over 10 feet. (b) In river, $2 per foot of water drawn, with a minimum of 10 feet. (c) Shifting berth, $15 to $20 per shift. There is no difference made between winter and Summer rates. TowAGE (BORNE BY VESSEL). Charges for shifting berths range from $30 to $190, depending upon the distance. These charges are for ships of 5,000 gross tons and under; on ships of over 5,000 tons gross, an additional charge of $5 for each 1,000 tons or fraction will be made. DocKAGE AND WHARFAGE (BORNE BY VESSEL). Dockage is charged by the dock board only for the use of public wharves. Owners of private wharves are supposed to use them only for their own business, and are not allowed to charge dockage, sheddage, wharfage, tolls, or rental for berthing space, or to compete in any way with the public wharves. Thus vessels berthing at railroad wharves are not subject to any of the wharf charges, except harbor fees and charges for labor, water, fumigation, entrance, and clearance, etc., with necessary pilotage and towing. (a) Dockage (borne by vessel): Seven days' free time to receive cargo before arrival; 4 cents per gross registered ton of vessel for first day; 3 cents for each of the Second and third days; 2 cents for the fourth day; 1 cent for each of the fifth and sixth days; then 10 days free of charge; then 1 cent for each of the seventeenth, eighteenth, nine- teenth, twentieth, and twenty-first days. A vessel making use of the wharves beyond this period of 21 days shall again be assessed on the basis as though it had just come in. (b) Demurrage (borne by vessel): A nominal demurrage may be levied, but this is rarely done, for the goods left behind are either removed or if left on dock then they take fresh dockage dues as though the vessel remained over 21 days. (c) “Assignment rental” is the name given to the charge for wharves and sheds assigned steamship companies by the year. i. The wharves and sheds will be preferentially assigned at the discretion of the board of port commissioners upon application, and a rental will be charged of 4 cents per square foot per annum payable quarterly in advance. The preferential assignment will not be considered absolute total rental, or assign- ment to the entire exclusion of other vessels which the board may deem proper to assign to such space. It may be understood, however, that the board will not under- take to make use of this preferentially assigned space for other vessels, except when the same is not being made full use of by the party to whom it is assigned, or when the board deems any particular necessity demands it. No credit or allowance will be made to the renter or renters on account of such temporary use as may be made under this latter provision. (d) No wharves are owned by steamship or dock companies. (e) No buoys are used or needed in this harbor. WHARE TOLLAGE. In addition to the “dockage-wharfage” charge there is a “wharf tollage,” depend- ing entirely upon the quantity of goods passing the public wharves. All commodities (with exception as noted below) passing over and under the public wharves to or from seagoing vessels shall be subject to a charge of 15 cents per ton of 2,000 pounds, to be known as wharf tollage The wharf tollage on bananas and coconuts shall be 10 cents per ton of 2,000 pounds. No wharf tollage shall be assessed against grain passing through elevators to or from vessels occupying berths at the Public Grain Elevator. No wharf tollage shall be assessed upon coal, fuel, oil, and stores that are intended for vessels' own consumption and use. 164681—H. DOC. 652, 66–2—143 2274 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. SHEDDAGE (BORNE BY VEssEL). Where shedded wharves are occupied vessels using same shall pay a shed charge of 3 cents per ton on the gross tonnage of the vessel. This payment covers the first 16 days coincident to the period of time for which dockage-wharfage is paid. A further charge of 1% cents per ton on the gross tonnage will be applied against vessels paying the seventeenth to the twenty-first day dockage-wharfage. After this latter period the vessel shall again be assessed on the basis as though it had just come in. HARBOR. D.U.E.S.

LOADING AND DISCHARGING CARGO. The followin » will be the charges for handling cargo with the use of banana con- veyors: } cent per bunch. Banana---------------------------------- - - - - - - - - - - - - - Coconuts----------------------------- !------------- 2 cents per sack. Coffee----------------------------------------------- 4 cents per sack. Oranges.------------------------------------------- 4 cents per box. Otherwise there are no charges for the use of most of the mechanical devices provided for loading and unloading at the port. Escalators, floating derricks, electric con- veyors, magnets, and electric trucks are used to facilitate loading and unloading of general cargo. Loading and discharging cargo is done by longshoremen and other manual labor employed through the firms of Stevedores, steamship companies and steamship agents making contracts with the Stevedores, who employ their own labor. Many steamship companies do their own Stevedoring. Stevedore rates for discharging a cargo run from 65 cents to $1.25 per ton (2,240 pounds). For loading cargo stevedores charge from 74 cents to $2 perton (2,240 pounds). For loading cotton the price is 58 cents per bale if screwed and 33 cents if hand stowed. Longshoremen’s wage to-day for handling general cargo is 80 cents an hour straight time and time and a half for overtime. For handling of kerosene, gasoline, naphtha, and for trimming and discharging coal the rate is 90 cents an hour straight time and time and a half for overtime. Workers handling bananas receive 55 cents an hour straight time and time and a half for overtime. When floating derricks are used the charges are $150 a day with a minimum of $75 for less than half a day, plus charges for towing derrick, which usually amounts to $67.50, three shifts at $22.50 per shift. Trimming of grain is paid for at the rate of $1 an hour. Storage charges, such as screwing of cotton bales, are usually included in the general contract with the stevedore. Sorting and stacking of a cargo on the wharf is paid by the shipper. There is a Separate “heading charge” of 3 cents a bale for heading cotton. In regard to standard labor rates, union and nonunion, Stevedores have the right to employ nonunion men when there are not enough longshoremen available, but must pay them union wages under the agreement with the Longshoremens’ Union. SWITCHING. The New Orleans Public Belt Railroad switching charge is $5 per car flat, regardless of tonnage or distance, except that a charge of only $3.50 per car applies on all com- pressed cotton and uncompressed cotton linters. STORAG. E. Storage charges on goods not under control of customs service are not controlled by State or United States officials; charges on goods under control of customs service are approved by customs officers. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2275 Grain elevator charges, public and private: See Tariff Public Grain Elevator, issued by board of commissioners, port of New Orleans, and tariff issued by the Central Elevator & Warehouse Co. Cotton: See tariff issued by the board of commissioners of the port of New Orleans. Rates for storage of cotton run from 25 cents to 45 cents per bale for first month, based on whether bales are stored uncompressed or compressed, also whether they are stored at public wharves or city presses. Extra storage, 12 cents for each additional 30 days. "Insurance ranges from 30 cents per $100 per annum at public warehouses to $1 per $100 per annum at city presses. General commodity warehouse charges are not published, but vary with the Com- modity and the crowded condition of the warehouse. Rates are usually “per package per month,” but special rates are given on contract time One warehouse company, which seems typical, quotes rates as follows: Flour, 98-pound sack, 7 cents first month, 3 cents after. Sugar, 12 cents per barrel first month and 10 cents after Rice, 6 cents per pocket first month and 3 cents after. ("offee, 8 cents per bag first month and 4 cents after. The rates can also be stated in terms of cubical contents, area, or weight, viz: One cent per cubic foot per month. Seven and one-half cents per square foot per month. Sixty cents per short ton per month if contents weigh 250 pounds per square foot Or Iſl()]'ê, Handling charge is from 60 cents to $2 per short ton. If contents are valued at more than $10 per cubic foot, then an additional one-tenth of 1 per cent of the valuation is added to the regular storage charge per month. QUARANTINE FEES. No charge is made at this port by city or State health board for sanitary inspection. Fumigation is done by the United States Public Health Service, but the ship pays the cost of material used in fumigating, ranging from $25 to $50 a ship. These mate- rials are supplied by the New Orleans Steamship Association. In addition a fee of about $3 is paid to the United States Public Health Service for labor. MISC EIILANEOljS FEES AND CHAROFES. *º- (a) Port wardens’ fees: The harbor dues include the port warden’s fees, except that a charge of $1 is made for each additional certificate furnished. (b) Brokerage ſees: Entering goods at the customs the fees vary from $2.50 to $10, according to the difficulties involved in entering cargo. (c) Lighthouse fees: There are none. (d) ('harges for various shipping documents and consul’s fees: These charges vary according to the country which the consul represents and are the same in each port all over the world for the consuls of that country. At this port, for example, the Mexican consulate charges 3 cents per hundred; the Cuban consulate charges $10 for vessel in ballast $10 for vessel with cargo, and $1 for each 100 tons or fraction. Clear- ances after office hours take double duty. General interest in improvement of facilities.—The New Orleans pub- lic, and particularly the city administration, the port commissioners, the Association of Commerce, and business interests in general, are keenly interested in the improvement of the terminal facilities of the ort. These improvements are going ahead by leaps and bounds. hey are in the hands of able and public-spirited business men who serve without compensation and have achieved so far most remark- able and encouraging results. Efforts made to utilize navigation facilities.—A reasonable amount of effort has been made in New Orleans to utilize the navigation facilities available, particularly in the direction of furnishing terminal facilities, encouraging foreign commerce, and supplying freight for the river barge lines operated by the Railroad Administration. Local capital has not, however, been invested to any great extent in steamboat and barge lines to navigate the Mississippi River and its tributaries. Until cordial cooperation between the railroads and the waterways has be- 2276 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. come well established and it has been actually demonstrated that such cooperation is really profitable to both interests and to the public, it will doubtless devolve upon the Government to blaze the way and make the demonstration in the interest of the general welfare. The results already accomplished by the Government barge line between St. Louis and New Orleans are in the highest degree encouraging, and unwavering perseverance for a few years will doubtless establish clearly that inland water transportation can be made of the greatest value to all concerned, the railroads as well as the public, and that destructive competition is uncalled for and unjustifiable from any point of view. With these principles established and maintained by Government regulation the extensive employment of private capital in the utilization of available navigation facilities will again become practicable. - Rail and water connections.—The existing rail and water connec- tions are very good and steadily improving. . All of the wharves of the port have railroad connection through the public belt railroad with all the railroads that enter the city. The physical connection is being made closer and more effective in the newer wharves, and much progress has been made of late in securing joint rates and through bills of lading. Efforts are being made to extend the area covered by such rates and through bills, and the fact that such exten- sion is vital to the effective use of the waterways seems to be appre- ciated; it constitutes the first important step toward that harmonious cooperation between rail and water routes that is essential to the effective utilization of both and without which the revival and survival of inland-water transportation on a considerable scale can hardly be expected. - Coaling and fuel-oil facilities.—These facilities are as follows: COALING FACILITIES. NEW ORLEANS COAL CO. (OWNERS AND OPERATORS OF Two TIPPLEs). No. 1. Single-track tipple with a 36-inch belt carrier to transfer coal from hopper to barges, at the rate of 150 tons per hour. Elevation enough to take care of 3,000 tons gross. - No. 2. Double-track tipple with a 42-inch rubber belt carrier, to transfer coal from cars into ships or barges. This tipple has a suspended conveyor which raises and lowers. The maximum height is 60 feet above ordinary high water, which gives ample space to coal any of the large ships which may come into this port. The maximum capacity of this tipple is 350 tons per hour. Vessels drawing 30 feet at low water can be handled at this tipple. Storage of approximately 10,000 tons adjoining tipple, equipped with a slack-line device to handle coal from the storage piles and deliver it direct into the hopper. - Both tipples operated by steam power. The New Orleans Coal Co. also has one steel floating collier used to coal ships from barges while the ships are handling freight at the regular wharves. Dimensions of hull: 100 feet long, 35 feet wide, 6-foot depth of hold, built of steel. Equipped with a 20-ton locomotive crane with a 65-foot boom and a 1-yard clamshell bucket, which is used to transfer coal from the lighters or barges into the hopper, which has a capacity of about 30 tons. . The hopper is so arranged on the barge as to automatically fill a 2-ton bucket which is stationed on a scale, and after it is filled it is then weighed and by means of a hoisting engine it is elevated between two guides of the tower, which is 90 feet from the deck, and this bucket automatically dumps into an elephant's head with a snout attached, which carries it into the bunkers of the ship; this elephant's head can be raised and lowered to any point on this 90-foot tower so as to give pitch enough for the coal to run down the snout into the bunkers of the ship. Coaling capacity, 150 tons per hour, handling coal from barges into the ship's bunkers. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER/ FACILITIES. 2.277 The New Orleans Coal Co. also has another steel collier of the same type. Capacity, 175 tons per hour. They also have quite a number of other large steel and wooden deck barges which are loaded at the tipple and towed to the ship's side and then the coal is transferred by means of the aforementioned colliers into the ship's bunkers. BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF THE PORT OF NEW ORLEANS. The Board of Commissioners of the Port of New Orleans has perfected all arrange- ments for the immediate erection of a coal-storage handling plant for this port with a minimum storage capacity of 25,000 tons, which will be so equipped as to receive coal for storage both from cars and barges. The wharf will be of such a length as to take care of three ships at one time, with a minimum loading capacity of approximately 300 to 500 tons per hour, which can be taken either from the coal storage or directly from cars or barges. AMERICAN SUGAR REFINING CO. The American Sugar Refining Co., at Chalmette, has a small coal plant of about 70 tons hourly capacity, for receiving coal from barges and delivering into the track hoppers at the boiler house. The plant consists of a wharf 36 feet by 204 feet parallel- ing the river, on which runs an electric locomotive crane fitted with clamshell bucket and operated by the alternating current, 100 horsepower. The crane lifts the coal from the open barge and deposits it in the dock storage hopper of 170 tons capacity. The hopper automatically delivers the coal to a conveyor belt; this conveyor is operated by a 10-horsepower motor, loads over the levee and across the road to a transfer bin of 130 tons capacity. From the transfer bin the coal is dumped into a special 50-ton steel car with hopper bottom standing on a platform scale. Two cars at opposite points on an endless cable are hauled on a track with automatic turnout between the scale and the boiler-house track hoppers. ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILROAD CO. The Illinois Central Railroad Co. has coaling facilities at Harahan Yard, consisting of one tipple electrically equipped. Normal capacity, 200 tons per hour; maximum, 300 tons per hour. Two coal derricks are in use at this plant, each having a capacity of 650 tons per day. SOUTHERN RAILROAD–CHAILMETTE COAL TIPPLE. Its capacity is 300 tons per hour. Twelve cars can be placed on the tipple and dropped over the hopper automatically. Fairbanks Morse automatic shoveler for unloading cars; plant lighted with electric incandescent lights on the inside and flood lights on the outside, making it possible to work at night as well as day. - Endless cable is handled by Ledgerwood reversible engine for moving barge up and down while being loaded. '. here are quite a number of companies engaged in furnishing coal by means of floating equipment. * FUEL OIL FACILITIES FOR BUNKERING PURPOSEs. GULF REFINING Co. of Louisian A–GRETNA.

The New Orleans Dry Dock & Shipbuilding Co. has facilities for wood repairing, caulking, painting, and scraping of vessels. They have no machine shops, but next to their plant is that of the Johnson Iron Works, and nearby there is the plant of the Algiers Iron Works, both plants being fully equipped to handle all iron work in con- nection with the repairing of iron vessels. UNITED STATES SHIPPING BOARD EMERGENCY FLEET CORPORATION (JAHNCKE SHIP- BUILDING CO). The Jahncke Shipbuilding Co. has under construction a dock which will be built in two sections, having a total capacity of 10,000 tons, the larger unit being 6,500 tons and the smaller unit being 3,500 tons. These units are being built so that they may be connected together, and, while the rate of capacity is 10,000 tons, no difficulty would be experienced in taking a ship of 12,000 tons. The clear width between wings of the dock is 84 feet and the distance from the top of pontoon decks to top of wings is 35 feet. In addition to the floating dry dock above described, there will be erected a ship repair plant thoroughly equipped with modern machinery and tools, which will be capable of repairing any ship floating to-day. TJNITED STATES NAVAL DOCK. Lifting capacity, 15,000 tons. Placed at the service of commercial vessels when private docks are not available. CRANE AND DERRICK FA CILITIES.

Doc. 652, 66-2, - | 1 PUBLIC GRAIN ELEVATOR AT NEW ORLEANS OWNED BY THE STATE OF LOUIS IANA. 2279 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2279 COTTON WAREHOUSES. Cotton to the amount of 800,000 bales can be stored at one time by the city. This will be increased to 887,500 bales before the 1919 season opens by the completion of another unit of the Public Cotton Warehouse. The Public Cotton Warehouse is designed to handle 2,000,000 bales a year, and is the most modern cotton-handling terminal in the world. - - - GRAIN ELEVATORS. Of the eight grain elevators, seven are used for export trade, with a total capacity of 7,022,000 bushels, of which 2,622,000 can be stored in the Public Grain Elevator, owned and operated by the Board of Commissioners of the Port of New Orleans. The Public Grain Elevator is built of reinforced concrete and carries an insurance rate of 13 cents per hundred and equipped with fire sprinklers and served by a wharf 1,500 feet in length.

GOVERNMENT WAREHOUSES (QUARTERMASTER’s CORPS). The United States Government has just finished three multiple-story reinforced concrete warehouses, which will have approximately 1,605,000 square feet of floor space, and will be equipped with the latest mechanical labor-Saving devices for the handling of various commodities. Two may be turned over to the dock board for handling and storing general cargoes. The warehouses will be served by the Public Belt Railroad. The wharf is approximately 177 feet wide and 2,000 feet long, with a two-story steel shed. There will be two railroad tracks along the front of the wharf and two in the rear. TRACK STORAGE FACILITIES. The trackstorage facilities of the port are far in excess of its ordinary needs, and there is almost an unlimited area on the river front which can be utilized for additional track storage space if required. Storage track capacity for export traffic, exclusive of grain, will total 13,506 cars. Possible betterment ºf conditions.—The Commissioners of the Port of New Orleans are alert and on the lookout for possible betterment of conditions and promptly take advantage of such opportunity for improvement in facilities and methods as experience develops. One such step which would seem to be worth multiplying lies in more extensively combining wharfage facilities with warehouse facilities by building the wharves with two stories, as has been done in the new wharf of the Army supply base. It would also seem advisable to make greater use of lighters for loading ships, which would save the necesssity of moving the ships so frequently from wharf to wharf and would also save time in loading by making it possible to load the ship from both sides at the same time. 2280 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. CANAL FEEDERS. Harvey, Canal enters the Mississippi River at Harvey, La., on the right bank of the river, opposite F.H. Avenue. The canal is 80 feet wide and 6 feet, deep.

Population and business possibilities of Natchez, are sufficient to justify a proper landing if river traffic is to be revived; the river is subject to a rise of about 54 feet and the town is situated on top of bluff about 200 feet above river. These exceptional Conditions make description of landing that should be provided a difficult problem, re- quiring special study. Anything less than a proper landing With suitable warehouses and With railroad connection with town and railroads on top of bluff would clearly be inadequate. 1 The other small towns in the fourth district, which are minor distributing centers, have water facilities similar in character and scope to those described for Donaldsonville and Plaquemine and no special report is made concerning them. , Nor is mention made of plantation landings, which are in no sense of the term water terminals, but merely land- #; *:::plies.

BURR, CORPS OF ENGINEERS, IN CHARGE. PORT OF NEW YORK, N. Y. The port of New York as a commercial entity includes a number. of improvements or projects which are separate so far as concerns the technique of the river and harbor service, but which are inter- related to such an extent that a broad view is possible only when they are considered as a whole. This report is prepared on this basis and includes not only the elements of the port of New York which fall in the first New York engineer district but also some elements that are under the supervision of the second New York engineer dis- trict. With a subject of this magnitude subdivision is necessary for a logical handling, and this report includes some general descriptive matter and data, followed by details grouped separately for the important sections of the port. The instructions under which this report was prepared contem- plated, in short, the furnishing of information along specified lines as to facilities now existing, opinions in regard to the sufficiency or effi- ciency of existing facilities, and suggestions as to future developments or extensions for the increase or economic betterment of existing facilities. The information as to existing facilities is furnished in detail in the accompanying papers, but it is most unfortunate that this information was of necessity compiled at and for a period when the port was in a transition stage between war and peace conditions, while large facilities were still in use for war purposes by governmen- tal and other agencies, and while normal commercial conditions had not yet been reestablished. Much of the detailed information as to the specific utilization of facilities is therefore good only for the period during which it was compiled. No attempt is made to formulate and state opinions as to the suf- ficiency or efficiency of existing facilities nor to make suggestions for the future development of the port. Existing conditions may be stated briefly—to be the result of gradual growth, which to a very large extent has proceeded along lines of least resistance to meet needs and emergencies as they arose, without any general plan or plans for the most logical and efficient development of facilities to solve the problems of the port, which, through their magnitude and other factors peculiar to this port, differentiate them markedly from those to be met in any other port in this country. These problems have been the subject from time to time of great study and consid— eration, and even of bitter discussion, but no solution has been reached that has been found acceptable, and no general plan of development has been put into effect. So intricate are these prob- lems resulting from the magnitude of the traffic involved and from the intermingling of traffic which, so far as local questions are con- cerned, may roughly be classed as through freight and freight of local origin or delivery, that no attempt will be made here even to state them. - - WATER, TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES.

No. 65 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2.293 But among other factors affecting materially, the development of the port as a whole is the fact that it lies within the boundaries of two States with all the handicaps resulting from such division of control politically. In 1917, however, the two States, New York and New Jersey, made possible a joint study of the port as a whole by the enactment of legislation leading to the creation of the New York, New Jersey Port and Harbor Development Commission, and by providing that commission with the means necessary for such a thorough study of the physical and economic problems involved as to furnish the basis for recommendations looking to the systematic development of the port as a whole. This commission has now nearly completed its work, which has included the accumulation of data in the utmost detail through a large and well selected personnel, and it is expected that its final report and recommendations will be available about July 1, 1920. Until the results of the commission's work and studies are available it would be premature to undertake to express any opinion in respect to the sufficiency and efficiency of existing conditions or to make suggestion for future development. Reports are submitted embodying information for the following localities, each of which is under improvement. The magnitude of the work made necessary the use of a special arrangement for its presentation, and preceding the º information for each sec- tion of the port is a statement of general information covering the section as a whole, with special comments on the more important terminals included in the tabulated statement. Staten Island Sound, including Arthur Kill and Kill Van Kull. New York Harbor: Bay Ridge and Red Hook Channels; Staten Island and New Jersey frontage. Buttermilk Channel. Wallabout Channel. Hudson River Channel: New York frontage; New Jersey frontage. East River: Long Island frontage; Manhattan and Bronx frontage. Newtown Creek. Harlem River. Reports have been omitted for the following works of improve- ment for the reason stated in each case: (a) Jamaica Bay: The construction of convenient terminals is a part of the existing cooperative project which is to be undertaken by the city of New York and wift has not been begun. The present terminals are admittedly of no general commercial importance. (b) Sheepshead Bay: The terminals are used for only small motor boats engaged in transport of passengers to and from Rockaway Beach and Plumb Island, with a small fishing interest. (c) New York Harbor.—Ambrose Channel: This is distinctively a channel of entrance to and exit from New York Harbor. It has no terminals along its course and can have none. It serves all the prin- cipal terminals in New York Harbor. (d) Gedney-Bayside-Main Ship Channel: This is in the same class as Ambrose Channel, but, on account of its longer course and less depth, it is seldom used by other than tows and sail vessels not per- mitted to use Ambrose Channel. (e) New York Harbor.—Coney Island Channel: This is designed for the same use as the entrance channels, limited, however, to vessels º 2294 WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. of lesser draft. It has one landing, built for passenger traffic by water to and from Coney Island, and no fight handling devices are needed. (f) Craven Shoal: The removal of this shoal is designed for safety of vessels using the entrance channels. It has no landings and can have none. (g) Channel between Staten Island and Hoffman and Swinburne Islands: This is designed for safety and convenience in transporting quarantined passengers. The landings require no considerable freight handling devices and have none. (h), New York Upper Bay.—Channel opposite anchorage grounds: This is an extension of Ambrose Channel to provide equal navigation facilities through the upper bay. It is wholly a channel for transit and has no landings of any kind. PHYSICAL GFOGRAPHY OF THE PORT. New York Harbor, in the broad commercial sense, includes all those navigable waters pertaining to the great metropolitan district of New York and is better described as the port of New York. The limits of the metropolitan district on the eastern side of the harbor may be assumed as coincident with those of the Greater City of New York. In New Jersey they are indeterminate and may be more or less widely drawn, but even at the minimum include many separate municipalities fronting upon the waters of the port. Comprehensive views of the activities and facilities of the port and of its present needs and its development to meet the requirements of the future must include all those waters and their adjacent uplands that com- pose the transportation and commercial entity whose directing efforts center on Manhattan Island. The main features in the waterways picture of the port are the Lower Bay, the Narrows, Upper Bay, Hudson (or North) River, and East River. These waters form the main channels to and through the port, as well as for local water traffic. The larger part of #. most important of the port terminal facilities front upon these waters (excepting the Lower Bay). Leading off from these main channels are numerous waterways which are tributary and secondary to them, but which, as water terminals and industrial centers, are now important elements of the port and promise in the future devel- opments of port facilities to play an even larger part in the com- mercial life of the port. On the New York side of the harbor are Gravesend Bay, Bay Ridge, and Red Hook Channels, Gowanus Creek, Buttermilk Channel, Newtown Creek, Flushing Bay, West- chester Creek, East Chester Creek, Bronx River, and Harlem River, all within the limits of Greater New York. On the New Jersey side are Sandy Hook Bay, Shrewsbury and Navesink Rivers, Raritan Bay, Raritan River, Staten Island Sound (including Arthur Kill and Kill Van Kull), and Newark Bay with its tributary streams. Also there should be included Jamaica Bay, which, if present plans are fully developed, will in the future become an additional and important feature of the port. Lower Bay.—This is a triangular body of water, extending 14 miles inland, into and through which lead the main channels to the port. It is generally shoal with one side about 6 miles long open to: WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2295 the sea between Sandy Hook and Coney Island. It is separated from the sea by a broad bar crossed by five channels, two of which have been deepened and widened, Ambrose Channel and Main Ship Chan- nel, with Gedney–Bayside Channel as an extension. Sandy Hook Bay, at the southern end of Lower Bay, lies behind the hook of the same name, and, into it from the southern end, enters the Shrewsbury River, of which Navesink River is a branch. At the triangular western end of Lower Bay is Raritan Bay, and at Perth Amboy the Raritan River flows into it, with Arthur Kill leading to the north behind Staten Island. The Narrows.--A short narrow tidal strait connecting Upper Bay and Lower Bay with a deep channel about a mile wide between shore lines at its narrowest section, lying between Long Island and Staten Island. Upper Bay.—A sheet of water as much as 5 miles wide, extending northward from the Narrows to the junction of Hudson and East Rivers at the Battery, at the southern end of Manhattan Island. Through the Narrows and Upper Bay there extends a channel of sufficient depth, bordered by shoals reaching to the shores on the east and west. Along the Long Island (Brooklyn) shore the channel known as Bay Ridge and Red Hook Channels has been dredged to 40 feet depth and 1,200 feet width from the Narrows to Red Hook, at which point it connects with Buttermilk Channel. From the con- nection of Bay Ridge and Red Hook Channel, Gowanus Creek extends easterly about 1% miles. In the northern part of Upper Bay lies Governors Island, a military reservation, and between it and the Tong Island (Brooklyn) shore is Buttermilk Channel which supplies a direct connection from Red Hook Channel, and a second route from the Upper Bay into the East River The flats along the Jersey shore are wide and shoal from Jersey City to Kill Van Kull, and these natural conditions retard the terminal development of this frontage at the present time. Staten Island Sound.—A narrow tidal strait about 17 miles along, lying between New Jersey and Staten Island, connecting the westerly end of Raritan Bay with the southern part of New York Bay, and in- cluding Arthur Kill and Kill Van Kull. In its original condition there existed a depth of about 14 feet, but under existing projects the depth has been increased to 25 feet, with a width of 400 feet. Kill Van Kull connects with the southerly end of Newark Bay at a point about 3 miles west of the Lower Bay. Hudson River.—That part of the Hudson River (North River) within the limits of the port extends from the Battery to the northern limits of the city about five-eighths of a mile north of Spuyten Duyvil, a distance of 16 miles. In its natural condition the depths are suffi- cient for through traffic, but shoals on parts of the rontage on each side of the river, restrict the deep water width below the limits needed for modern traffic and obstruct portions of the water front. The entire Manhattan side of the waterway is being deepened to 40 feet where necessary and secondary channels are being dredged along the Jersey front 30 feet deep at Jersey City and 26 feet deep between Weehawken and Edgewater. East River.—A tidal strait 16 miles long, connecting New York Harbor at the Battery with Long Island Sound at Throgs Neck, much obstructed at points by reefs and shoals in its original con- 2296 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. dition. A channel 40 feet deep throughout the length of the river is in process of execution, and the Manhattan water front below Blackwells Island is being deepened to 25 feet where necessary. Two and one-half miles from the Battery is Wallabout Creek, a side channel about 2,000 feet long. Newton Creek is a tidal arm about 4 miles long, entering the river 4 miles from the Battery. At Hell Gate, about 8 miles from the Battery, is the eastern end of the Harlem River, and east of Hell Gate are the entrances to Flushing Bay on the Long Island side and Bronx River, Westchester Creek, and East Chester Creek on the New York side. Harlem River.—The Harlem River includes parts of the original Harlem River and of Spuyten Duyvil Creek, whose upper ends have been connected by artificial channel. Its total length is about 8 miles, connecting the Hudson and East Rivers, and separating Man- hattan Island from the mainland. Depths of channels.--All depths are stated as at mean low water. Ambrose Channel has a depth of 40 feet for a width of 2,000 feet, and Gedney-Bayside Channel a depth of 30 feet for a width of 1,000 feet. The 40-foot channel is carried through the Lower and Upper Bays and Hudson River to the northern limits of the poiſt, and is being widened to 2,000 feet at points where the natural width is less than that amount. The present project for East River contem- plates a channel 40 feet deep with varying widths up to 1,000 feet, depending upon local conditions from point to point.

TRAFFIC GEOGRAPHY OF THE PORT. Steamship lines engaged in trans-Atlantic trade berth their vessels principally on the North River along the Manhattan water front and at Hoboken. . Some such vessels are also berthed at South Brooklyn. Passenger and large express steamers engaged in this same traffic dock on the North River in Manhattan and at Hoboken. Steamers not pertaining to regular lines but engaged in trade to all parts of the world are berthed generally at South Brooklyn, but with some vessels berthing at Stapleton, Staten Island. Steamers plying to South American ports berth generally at South Brooklyn. Southern coastwise, as well as West India commerce is handled at the Manhattan piers on the North and East Rivers, and on the Buttermilk Channel and at South Brooklyn. New England coast- wise traffic is handled mainly along the Manhattan water front in the North River and East River. Passenger vessels in this trade WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2297 dock mainly in the North River. Hudson River passenger and freight steamers use piers in the North River. Steamboat lines engaged in local or intraport freight traffic dock mainly along the East River water front of Manhattan. Coal terminals are located along the New Jersey front from Edge- water to Jersey City and in Kill Van Kull, as well as in Arthur Kill, at Elizabethport, Port Reading, and the Amboys. Industrial terminals and manufacturing plants receiving coal and raw materials and shipping finished products are located at Arthur Kill, Newtown Creek, and to a less degree along East River water fronts. Building materials are received to a great or less extent on all of the minor channels, and largely in the Harlem River and the upper section of East River for Manhattan and The Bronx. Terminals of railroads approaching from the west are located on the New Jersey side of the North River and at Greenville, Bayonne and St. George, Staten Island. The terminals of railroads approach- ing from the north and east are located in Manhattan and in the Bronx. Freight is transferred to and from these terminals by car floats and lighters to all water fronts in the harbor. A considerable ortion of the Manhattan frontage in the East River and North iver is devoted to this traffic. Foodstuffs and provisions are handled largely at piers on the Manhattan side of" the North River and at Wallabout Channel, Brooklyn. Fish is received practically entirely in the East River on the Manhattan front. PORT ADMINISTRATION AND DUES. The port administration of the port of New York is under separate control of the municipality of New York City, through its department of docks, and of the municipalities of Jersey City, Hoboken, and other towns in New Jersey. A plan is under way for creating a general “ port of New York” by action of the States of New York and New Jersey, to embrace under a joint administration all of New York Harbor as above described, including the New Jersey terminals, together with Kill Van Kull and Staten Island Sound. The port charges of the port of New York are (a) pilotage, in and and out bound; (b) quarantine fee; (c) towboat assistance, channel to berth, and out; (d) wharfage; (e) loading and unloading cargo; (f) coaling. Pilotage.—Fixed by law, as follows per foot of draft, from and to the sea, via Sandy Hook entrance: Draft. Inward.

Quarantine fees.—Ten dollars. Towboat assistance.—This varies with number of boats required. Small ships generally employ two tugs; the largest steamers some- times eight or even more. Wharfage.—Most of the steamship lines pay wharfage under long leases, the cost of which depends upon location, depth, and facilities on the piers. Leases of municipal piers are made upon competitive bids. . At private piers as well as by lessees of municipal piers, berthing space is in some cases leased or rented at rates varying widely with the location and character of the pier. No other charges are made for use of wharves and piers. OWNERSHIP. Public ownership.–The city of New York owns about 127 miles of water front in the several boroughs out of a total of 555 miles, on which it has 184 piers, 31 ferry slips, 5 car transfer slips. Sixteen of the piers are used by city departments, 23 are open to public use, the rest are leased. Several of the city leased piers are among the most modern, largest and best equipped. The city is endeavoring to acquire additional water front, as opportunity and the state of public funds permit. The city of Jersey City owns one pier and a part interest in a basin of considerable local use commercially. Nearly all of the water front of Jersey City and Hoboken has been owned and occupied by the railroads for passenger and freight terminals and by steamship lines as terminals. Some of the latter were taken over by the United States during the war and are still retained. The city of New York has taken much interest in terminal and transfer facilities for several years. Several plans have been advo- cated, most of them including construction of a bridge or tunnel to bring freight cars across the Hudson River and involving large expense not only for the construction itself but also for connection with the several railroads in New Jersey and the numerous required distributing points in Manhattan. The present mode of transferring freight, in cars upon car floats or in bulk in lighters has advantages in flexibility and in adaptability to all locations and varying demands; it is assumed that improvements will be made in details but whether the plan itself will be altered depends upon development of a design whose cost will not be out of proportion to results. A vehicular tunnel to connect lower Manhattan with Jersey City has been authorized and construction will begin shortly. This is expected to relieve some of the congestion affecting freights which can be trucked. WATER TERMINAL AND THANSITER FACILITIES. 2299 The general efficiency of the port as a whole has been developed under the stress of competition and necessity. It is easier to find defects in it than to suggest practicable remedies. In normal times it meets all needs with little friction and delay. The increased activities due to the war often taxed their appliances beyond what they were designed for. * COALING. Coaling is almost uniformly done by hoisting from barges brought alongside the ship. Stevedoring now costs $1, to $3 a ton, varying with the size of the order. Stevedores furnish hoists and buckets, and transportation costs as much for a small order as for a large one. A single gang will bunker 200 to 400 tons of coal a day of 10 hours' work. Extra charge is made for overtime. Large ships often have three of four gangs of coalers at a time. Coal is brought from the mines by rail, and dumped into barges from elevated tracks on the piers. At the navy yard, ships are coaled in very short time from º elevated coal bins on one of the piers. This is not applicable to commercial vessels on account of the lack of room at the piers as well as the great attendant expense: and the saving of time is not significant, since the ships take on coal while discharging and loading cargoes. RiºPAIR AND STOR.A.G.E FA CILITIES. New York Harbor has four dry docks capable of docking ships of 10,000 tons or over, the largest being 21,000 tons. Five different places are equipped to make extensive repairs on the largest ships which they can dock. There are other plants equipped to dock and repair small tugs and other harbor craft, and many other machine shops fitted to make such repairs as do not involve docking. The large dry-dock companies have excellently equipped machine shops, fitted for any class of repairs. They have been more than full of business during the last two years, due to the unusual amount of work and to difficultics in getting capable and efficient machinists. FREIGHT HANIDLING . Loading and unloading freights.--This is done by stevedores, with more or less assistance from the ship's crew. The cost of stevedoring has been very variable latterly; at present it runs from 90 cents to $1 a ton. Power facilities for handling freights are generally lacking. To illustrate some of the varied operations in the port of New York other than those described in connection with certain of the largest terminals, 26 photo prints are presented," showing either typical or special appliances and constructions. The handling of coal for domestic, industrial, and transportation uses, amounting to 40,000,000 tons a year, is a large item. It involves also the disposal of ashes and cinders, approximately 4,000,000 tons of which are sent annually to near-by points and used in reclaiming marshes and other low lands (10 prints)". About 800,000 tons (530,000,000 feet b. m.) of lumber are received and distributed, the handling of which requires appliances and con- veyors for this special purpose (3 prints)". For other goods special appliances are often in use (3 prints)", handling coffee, flour in bags, grain in bulk. 1 Not printed. --- 2300 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Many of the old timber piers as they decay are being replaced with structures built of concrete above low-water level (2 prints). The city of New York owns more than 200 piers in Manhattan and about 35 in Brooklyn. As fast as these require rebuilding they are constructed of modern design, of which Pier 44, East River, is a fair example (2 prints)". Pier 1, North River, built many years ago of stone arches, is a durable structure but obsolete (1 print). gº Removal of garbage and refuse by the street department of the city of New York is a large undertaking, requiring the use of six entire piers and of parts of eight other piers in Manhattan. Appliances for dumping refuse into the scows which carry it to incinerating plants are being improved continually to make the oper- ations as rapid and as little offensive as possible (2 prints)". Floating derricks are used about shipyards to facilitate moving repaired parts (1 print)". Floating hoists are used in conjunction with deck hoists for coaling ships and for transferring freights to and from lighters. They are of nearly uniform type (1 print)*. Many of the small tidal tributaries to New York Harbor were laid out before there was any conception of what they would develop into, and bulkheads were built and occupied to such extent as prac- tically to prohibit present widening. Newtown Creek is the most conspicuous example of this. Mott Haven Canal, a narrow channel extending about one-quarter mile from Harlem River, furnishes a more ready illustration of extreme congestion (1 print)".

WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2301 HUDSON RIVER, NEW YORK HARBOR. The lower part of the Hudson River, included within the harbor of New York, is a section 16 miles in length, extending from the Battery to the north boundary of New York City, separating the Borough of Manhattan on the east from Jersey City, #. Woehawken, and Edgewater, N. J., on the west. It has a width from 2,500 to 4,000 feet between established pierhead lines, with a natural channel 40 feet deep and 1,000 feet wide or over, the deep water swinging from one side of the stream to the other. The existing project provides for widening the 40-foot channel where it is narrowest, and for extending that depth to the piers for about 2 miles of the water front where the largest ships land, and for deepening to 26 and 30 feet other sections used by vessels of lesser draft. The mean rise of tide is from 4.4 feet at the Battery to 3.7 feet at the north limit of the city. Character and eatent of commerce.—The character of commerce is very broad, the principal classified items being coal, provisions, build- ing materials, machinery, and hardware, metals and ores, cotton, oil, with about one-quarter the total tonnage and one-half the total value unclassifiable, except as general merchandise. The amount reported for the calendar year 1917 was 53,945,490 tons, valued at $4,882,879.67, exclusive of receipts and shipments by the United States Army Transport Service, which made this its chief shipping Center. Size and type of vessels.-Hudson River Channel is the western terminus for the largest ships in the trans-Atlantic traffic. Foreign commerce is carried in steel ships 250 to 950 feet length, of draft from 16 to 43.5 feet (maximum reported). Coastwise commerce uses steel ships of generally 200 to 400 feet length, and draft 16 to 22 feet. Local harbor commerce is carried in steel or wooden lighters, car floats, barges, canal boats, and ferry boats. Other data.-There are six railroad terminals, and three steamship terminals of special interest and importance: (1) Erie Railroad; (2) Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad; (3) United States Army piers, Hoboken, N. J.; (4) Chelsea piers; (5) Forty-sixth Street iers; (6) New York Central & Hudson River Railroad (and West §. Railroad, leased and operated); (7) Pennsylvania Railroad; (8) Lehigh Valley Railroad; (9) Central Railroad of New Jersey. There are many other terminals whose importance is dwarfed only by comparison. ERIE RAILROAD TERMINAL. The Erie Railroad owns 15 freight piers on the west side of the Hudson River, of which 7 are in Jersey City, opposite Canal Street, Manhattan, and 8 in Weehawken, opposite Twenty-sixth to Thirty- fourth Streets. All of these piers are occupied by the railroad com- pany for coal, grain, and general freight traffic, and have direct railroad connection. They are of pile construction and old type. The size and use of the piers, in order from south to north is: Pier 1: Jersey City, 1,500 by 130 to 70 feet; grain elevator and coal. Pier 2: Jersey City, 1,750 by 70 feet; with three storehouses; no freight hoists. Piers 3 and 4: Passenger ferry. Pier 5: Jersey City, 750 by 70 feet; open. º Pier 6: Jersey City, 725 by 74 feet; coal pier with elevated track for dump. 2302 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. Between Piers 6 and 8 are three car float bridges. Pier 8: Jersey City, 650 by 58 feet; open; no freight hoist. Pier 9: Jersey City, 700 by 115 feet; open; no freight hoist. Pier I: Weehawken, 1,025 by 68 feet; coal tipple. Pier H: Weehawken, 955 by 31 feet; open; one 10-ton, one 20-ton gantry traveling electric crane. Pier G: Weehawken, 900 by 40 feet; open. Pier F: Weehawken, 827 by 98 feet; 2-story shed; 10 elevators. Pier D: Weehawken, 756 by 98 feet; 2-story shed; 9 elevators. Pier C: Weehawken, 710 by 98 feet; 2-story shed; 7 elevators. Pier B: Weehawken, 672 by 68 feet; 2-story shed; 3 elevators. Pier A: Weehawken, 500 by 68 feet; 2-story shed. The Jersey City slips have 10 to 15 feet depth; the Weehawken slips have 30 feet depth at outer ends. he Erie Railroad also occupies three freight piers leased from the city of New York on the sº side of the Hudson River, two north of Canal Street, 850 feet long and 80 and 100 feet wide, and one at West Forty-ninth Street, 500 by 60 feet. These three piers have no railroad connection, except by car floats. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN RAILROAD CO. This company, besides carrying passengers, conducts a large freight traffic in the port of New York. It owns 2,500 feet of frontage in Jersey City, with nine freight piers of aggregate length of 9,880 feet, about 840,000 square feet area, and with berthing space 19,080 feet in length. Four of the slips are 25 feet deep or over, the others from 16 to 20 feet. It also has six car transfer bridges, double track, capacity 100 tons each. All of these Jersey City piers are connected directly with the com- É. 's ºiroad tracks. One of them is also connected with the Erie 8,1]I*O 8,01. The company owns one pier on the Manhattan side of the Hudson River, and occupies three others leased from the city of New York, all pile piers, with steel or steel and timber sheds. It owns two piers in #. one with a freight shed of 16,300 square feet, a car- transfer bridge, and a gantry crane, the other with a steel shed on the pier, and another in Harlem River at One hundred and thirty- fifth Street, with a freight warehouse 15,000 square feet. The com- pany, operates four ferry lines across the Hudson River in connec- tion with its passenger service, owning the landings on the Jersey shore and leasing those on Manhattan. On Pier 1 (north end of company’s property) is a traveling crane for unloading freight from cars to boats, a not unusual type. Pier 5 is used for unloading coal from cars into barges and tugs. It is fitted with two McMyler car dumpers, generally spoken of as “car tipples,” one on either side of the pier. This is an appliance for lifting a coal car with coal, car trucks, section of track and track platform, and upturning the car, dumping the coal into a chute which carries it directly into a barge or other boat, moored alongside; lifting capacity, 80 tons. It has a record of dumping 38 cars an hour, but averages about 20. It is a comparatively, modern device for rapid handling of coal. At the outer end of Pier 5 is an elevated coal bin for rapid coaling of tugs and small harbor steamers; not a new device, but an efficient one.

The other large piers have depths of 30 to 35 feet. All piers have connection with the several railroads entering Jersey City and Hoboken, by means of the Hoboken Shore Railroad, a road built for this purpose. The piers generally are provided with electric tractors and trailers, and with movable electric cranes for freight handling. The larger ones have two-story housing and large eleva- tors. The pier sheds have been generally used for temporary storage. CHELSEA PIERS. This is a group of seven full piers, with a half pier at either end of the group, extending from Bloomfield and West Thirteenth Street to West Twenty-second Street, on the east or Manhattan side of the Hudson River. The piers were built by the city of New York and completed in 1910, at a cost of about $24,000,000. In order from south to north, the size of the piers are: Half pier at Bloomfield Street, 825 by 50 feet; two piers, each 825 by 100 feet; three piers, 1 Not printed. 2304 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. each 825 by 125 feet; two piers, each 800 by 125 feet; half pier at West Twenty-second Street, 800 by 60 feet. All of the piers are covered with two-story sheds and fitted with masts on either side, arranged for hoisting with portable electric winches on the piers or with ship's power. These piers are occupied by the Cunard Steamship Line, the French Line, and the four lines of the International Mercantile Marine Co., being among the largest and most active of the trans-Atlantic steam- ship lines. The slips, 250 feet wide, were dredged to 40 feet depth, mean low Water. FORTY-SIXTH STREET PIERS. These consist of two piers, the most recent and among the largest in Manhattan, completed in 1918. They are 1,000 feet long, 150 feet wide, with slips dredged to 40 feet depth, mean low water. The shore end of the piers, 219 feet long, are built on riprap foundation, the outer end being concrete floor on piles. The pier is provided with hoist masts for unloading cargoes, to be operated either by portable electric winches or by ship's power. During the war these piers were operated by the United States Army for berthing the largest transports. They are now leased to the Norton, Lilly & Co., steamship agents. NEW YORK CENTRAL & HUDSON IRIVER RAILROAD (AND WEST SHORE RAILROAD, LEASED AND OPERATED). This company occupies 37 piers in the port of New York, 31 of which are on the Hudson River and 6 on the East River. Ten are owned by the city, 3 are privately owned, 10 are owned by the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad, and 14 by the West Shore Railroad, operated by the New York Central & Hudson River Rail- road. It also operates 12 car transfer double-track bridges, all on the Hudson River. The railroad terminal handles large quantities of grain, and coal and carload freights. It has a car yard of about 50 acres area between West Sixtieth and West Seventy-second Streets, Manhattan, with a water frontage of 2,300 feet, and, through the West Shore Railroad, a water front of about 6,800 feet in Weehawken, N. J. It has efficient grain-handling machinery in elevators at Weehawken and Manhattan, and some excellent coal-handling plants for unloading from barges. It has floor area for handling and storing freights amounting to 2,557,000 square feet, of which 2,100,000 square feet are covered. Direct connection with railroads exists on 28 of the piers, and the car floats connect with every railroad terminal in the port; 9 piers, used for local freights only, have no railroad connection; and 17, used for transfer and lighterage only, have no highway connection.

LEHIGH WALLEY RAILROAD, This road does a large coal traffic in and through the port of New York, with a very considerable general freight business and a com— paratively small passenger traffic, for which it uses the passenger terminal of the Central Railroad of New Jersey. Its main coal terminal is at Perth Amboy, N. J., where it occupies 135 acres of land and handles over 3,000,000 tons of coal annually. The company also has a general freight terminal at “Black Tom,” South of Communipaw, covering an area of about 70 acres, and a new terminal at Constable Point, at the mouth of Kill Van Kull, mainly for handling ores. These terminals are in the second engineer dis- trict of New York. In the first engineer district it has a freight terminal on the south side of the Morris Canal Basin, Jersey City; it occupies five leased piers and one car-transfer slip on the Manhattan side of the Hudson River and two piers on the East River. Following is a list of the terminals used by this company in the first engineer district of New York: JERSEY CITY TERMINALS, SOUTH OF MORRIS CANAL BASIN. Car-transfer slip, with 6 bridges.

The lighterage and coal piers use no highway connections. The freight-handling appliances for use at lighterage piers consist mainly of locomotive cranes and floating derricks from 15 to 60 tons capacity, moved from one pier to another as needed. The company has two car dumpers, or “coal tipples,” on Piér 18, Jersey City, for raising coal cars and a track platform and dumping the cargo of coal into barges. On the bulkhead near Pier 12 it has a magnetic grap- ple capable of handling 20 tons of iron or steel. ' Following is a list of the piers occupied or leased by this company in the port of New York.

This is a tidal strait about 16 miles long, connecting the Upper Bay at the Battery, New York City, with Long Island Sound, at Throgs Neck, and separating Long Island from Manhattan Island and the mainland. Hell Gate is a section 14 miles long, from the north end of Blackwells Island, 7} miles from the Battery to Negro Point Bluff, Wards Island. The entire waterway is characterized by swift tidal currents frequently crossing the channel. This was especially notable at Hell Gate when the deep water was a cleft between rock ledges on either side and had two bends approximately at right angles and one-quarter mile apart, and where several ledges projected into deep water from the sides and bottom, causing eddies and “boils.” The channel had natural depths of 20 feet or over at mean low tide and notwithstanding the difficulties and dangers of navigation it was always much used as the thoroughfare between New York and New England ports. The mean rise of tide ranges from about 4 feet at the Battery to 7.2 feet at Long Island Sound, the principal variation being at and near Hell Gate, where an actual slope of surface of 2% feet in 3 miles has been observed. * The East River is spanned by four highway bridges and one rail- road bridge, all without draws and with vertical clearance of 135 feet above high water line. The existing project provides for a through channel 40 feet deep, with widths from 550 to 1,000 feet, the narrower limit being deter- mined by the natural shore line, and for depths of 25 to 35 feet in different subsidiary channels and at water fronts. Character and extent of commerce.—The commerce of this channel is very varied and includes almost everything which is handled by 2310 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. vessels. The items of greatest importance are machinery and hard- ware, and other manufactures of metals, building and road materials, fuel, provisions, sugar, and tropical fruits, and petroleum products.

In 1917, 3,155,631 passengers were reported. Size and type of vessels.-For foreign commerce: Steel ships up to 600 feet length and 35 feet draft (maximum) and occasional sailing ships, barks, and schooners. The largest ships of the United States Navy go to the navy yard 2 miles above the Battery. * For coastwise commerce: Steel steamships, wooden and steel steam and sail vessels, and barges. The steamers carry passengers and freight to and from eastern ports and are the largest and finest of their class, up to 425 feet length. For internal and local commerce: Ferryboats, car floats, steam lighters, barges, and canal boats. The largest of the ferryboats are 246 feet long and car floats are 250 to 400 feet long. Other data.-There are six terminals in East River of such interest and importance as to call for additional mention, viz: (1) New York Dock Co.; (2) Jay Street Terminal; (3) New York, New Haven & FIartford Railroad Terminals, 10 piers, East River, between Pike Slip and East Twenty-second Street, also at Willis Avenue and Oak Point; (4) Consolidated Gas Co.; (5) State Barge Canal Termi- nal; (6) American Sugar Refining Co. - NEW YORK DOCK CO. This company has the most extensive terminals under one corpora- tion in the port of New York. It occupies 6,800 feet of frontage in East River, from Fulton Street to Hamilton Avenue, Brooklyn, three ferry terminals excepted, and most of the frontage for a mile farther south along Buttermilk Channel. There are 36 piers and one bulk- head landing 5,000 feet long, giving a total berthing for ships of 46,500 linear feet. & These piers are leased to 21 different steampship lines for foreign and coastwise service. Thirty of them are covered, three of them are used for car-transfer bridges. The piers are interconnected in groups by railroad tracks, but the connection with general railroad systems is by car floats only. . The terminal has 70 acres of land back of the bulkheads, nearly all of it occupied by storage and warehouses. The total ground area of these buildings is approximately 2,500,000 square feet. The facilities for handling freight are cranes and hoists on the piers, used to supplement the ship's hoists. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2311 JAY STREET TERMINAL. This terminal consists of nine piers on the Brooklyn side of East River, located above and below the Manhattan Bridge, with one car- float bridge, covering 1,850 linear feet of water front. The piers and bulkheads furnish 61,000 linear feet of berthing, with a dock area of 165,000 square feet. Back of the bulkhead, the terminal has 12 acres of land, containing one large storage warehouse of 460,000 square feet floor space, and several smaller sheds. The storage yard and piers are interconnected by 3.15 miles of railroad track, the yards having capacity for 200 freight cars. The only connection with the railroad system is by means of car floats, and the main business of the terminal is to provide such connection. For this purpose it owns and keeps in service 6 car floats, with capacity of 77 freight cars, 12 barges of 450 tons each, 1 open lighter, and 2 covered lighters, and 3 towboats. Most of the freight handled is brought ashore in cars and delivered from them either to storage buildings or to trucks. For handling freights, the company has one 20-ton gantry crane, and two loco- motives for shifting cars. The equipment is well suited to the class of business. NEW YORK, NEW HAVEN & HARTFORD RAILROAD CO. This company occupies 16 piers on the Manhattan side of East River, and has two freight yards in The Bronx Borough. The piers are Nos. 30 to 32, inclusive, Nos. 37 to 42, inclusive, and Nos. 69 and 70, lying between Clinton Street and West Twenty-third Street, Manhattan, Pier 39 is owned by the railroad company—the others are leased from the city of New York. The business transacted at these piers is the receipt and delivery of freight from and to barges, lighters, and car floats. The piers have no direct railroad connec- tion. There is one receiving freight shed at Piers 38 and 39, and nine of the piers are covered. The Harlem River car yard is east of Willis Avenue, Bronx, the water frontage is on the Harlem River, but the freights handled are for transport through the East River. This yard has two car float landings and bridges for transferring cars. It has over 12 miles of track and facilities for handling 1,052 cars. This yard does some business in the way of leasing storehouses for produce and delivering freights to such storehouses for local service. The main business is with through freights in cars. The Oak Point car yard, more recently built, is now the principal freight terminal of this railroad. It occupies about 90 acres of upland, fronting East River between East One hundred and forty-ninth Street and Leggitt Avenue, Bronx, carries over 30 miles of track, with capacity for handling 3,017 cars, and has 8 car float landings, with transfer bridges. It has no storehouses, the business being chiefly the through shipment and transfer of freight cars. Some classifica- tion of cars is done here and a small amount of local distribution. The railroad company operates 19 powerful tugs, 90 to 120 feet long, and 25 car floats in the freight transfer service. The require- ments of this business call for no special freight handling devices. The piers are provided with movable derricks, and with tractors and trailers. The Harlem River yard has cranes for handling local 2312 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. freights and coal buckets and hoists for handling coal for the com- pany's locomotives. The Oak Point yard has no appliances, other than those brought in for special occasions. CONSOLIDATED GAS CO. This company occupies a tract of about 50 acres, with a half mile of water front on the Brooklyn side of East River, at Lawrence Point, º the Harlem Kills. It reports an annual consumption of about a half million tons of coal, and supplies gas to parts of Man- hattan and Bronx, as well as to Long Island. Coal is unloaded from barges by two large cantilever “fast cranes,” for open storage in the company's yard. -* Five years ago this company constructed a tunnel to carry gas from Webster Avenue, Astoria, to East One hundred and thirty- second Street, Bronx. The tunnel is 4,662 feet long, 18 to 19 feet inside diameter. It is sunk 250 feet deep, and carried two gas mains, each 6 feet diameter. STATE BARGE CANAL TERMINALS. The State of New York has established six barge canal terminals in the port of New York, at an aggregate cost for five sites (one yet before court for adjustment) of $2,675,259.01, and for improvements under way and completed of $3,106,000.

WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2313 AMERICAN SU(#A R REFINING CO. Plant on east side of East River, South First to South Fifth Streets, includes 1,300 feet of water front with four piers, 220 to 300 feet long, 40 to 80 feet wide, and total pier area of 67,000 square feet. Piers are all covered, with covered connections to refineries. Piers and bulkheads are used for receiving raw sugar from cargo vessels and barges and for shipping refined sugar in cars on car floats. One bulkhead is also used for receiving fuel. This plant has railroad connection only by car floats. Storage houses for raw sugar, 97,200 square feet; storage houses for refined sugar, 72,000 square feet. BAY RIDGE AND RED HOOK CHANNELS, NEW YORK HARBOR. These channels form a waterway in the east or Brooklyn shore of the Upper Bay, New York Harbor, having a length of 44 miles, from Ninety-second Street, Brooklyn, northward to the foot of Dikeman Street, at Red Hook Point, where it meets Buttermilk Channel, and with it constitutes an eastern channel of communication between East River, N. Y., and the sea. The channels are located close to the pierhead line, and the shore is practically all occupied by piers, or in the lower end of Red Hook Channel by bulkhead, built out to the pier line, except about 14 miles at the south part of Bay Ridge Channel, where the shore is, a steep bluff, 40 feet or more high, not readily adaptable to commercial navigation. The existing project for improvement contemplates making the entire length of these channels 1,200 feet wide and 40 feet deep, where the original depths were about 7 feet. Bay Ridge Channel has been completed, but has shoaled to 35 feet, with rather less at the north- east end; Red Hook Channel has been dredged to 38 feet depth for pºly its full width. The controlling depth in these channels is 38 feet. Character and extent of commerce.—Prior to the war with Germany, the commerce received at and shipped from terminals in this water- way consisted of foodstuffs, coal, cotton, naval stores, and much unclassified freight, totaling about 8,000,000 tons a year. During the war, most of these terminals were taken over by the United States and were used very largely for war shipments of troops, provisions, vehicles, fuel, and machinery, reaching a tonnage of 12,000,000 a year, and probably more. Size and type of vessels.-This commerce is mainly transacted by steel ocean-going ships from 300 to 500 feet length, and 2,000 to 6,000 or more gross tonnage, Fuel and a large part of the freight are loaded to and unloaded from the ships by ordinary harbor barges and lighters. Other data.-There are five terminals on this waterway of such public interest and commercial importance as to justify further details. In order from south to north: United States Army base, 4 piers, Sixty-fourth to Fifty-eighth Streets. Bush Terminal, 7 piers, Fifty-first to Fortieth Streets. New York City piers, 6 piers, Thirty-eighth to Twenty-ninth Streets. New York State Barge Canal Terminal, basin and pier, foot of Henry Street. Erie Basin, basin dry docks and piers, entrance foot of Van Brunt Street. 2314 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. UNITED STATES ARMY BASE. This is a site between Fifty-eighth and Sixty-fourth Streets, Brooklyn, extending from Second Avenue to the pierhead line, comprising a total area of nearly 100 acres, of which about 57 acres is land, 15 acres piers, and 28 acres slips. Piers: There are four piers, of concrete floor on piles, each about 1,300 feet long, three of them 150 feet wide, and the fourth 60 feet wide. The three wide piers carry double-decked sheds, the narrow pier being open single deck. Slips are being dredged to 35 feet at mean low tide. There are four storage yards with tracks for holding 1,300 cars, and two warehouses of reinforced concrete, eight stories each, and combined floor space of 4,000,000 square feet. The third floors of these warehouses are connected by bridges with the upper decks of the piers, and the ground floor with the lower decks, and connected among themselves by an extensive elevator system. The connection with piers is by electric trucks and trailers. . A com- plete system of electric hoists and winches is designed for the piers. Direct rail connection from piers, warehouses, and grounds is made with the Long Island Railroad System, the New York & New Haven lines, and a practicable railroad connection with the Pennsylvania Railroad and other systems. Seventeen miles of track are laid or provided for at the base. Water connection by lighters exists with all harbor terminals. This terminal was begun in 1918, and pushed forward rapidly until the armistice was declared, since when progress has been less urgent. The terminal is not wholly completed. BTUSH TERMINAL. This terminal covers approximately 200 acres, about one-half of which is back of the bulkhead line, containing warehouses, fac- tories, and car vards, the other half including piers and slips. There are eight pile piers, six of which are 1,200 to 1,300 feet long and 150 feet wide; one is 1,200 feet long and 270 feet wide; and one 600 feet long and 60 feet wide. All but the latter have double-track stand- ard-gage railroads, connected among themselves and with the Long Island Railroad System and the Brooklyn Rapid Transit South of the south pier are two float bridges for cars to and from car floats. All of the piers are covered, two of them with two-story sheds; all have city water supply. Hoisting appliances: About the piers and yards are 57 electric hoists, many of them movable, of average capacity of 1 ton each, 5 of them being of 2-ton capacity, also 1 steam 1.5-ton locomotive crane. Ship freight is generally handled by the ships, with more or less help from windlasses on the piers. The pier sheds being used for temporary storage. A considerable amount of freight is handled directly to and from lighters. in Storage: There are 21 separate buildings, divided into 122 storage compartments and covering a ground area of 25 acres; from 1 to 12 stories high, averaging 5 stories; all provided with elevators and hoists. Car yards of 15 acres area and over 60,000 linear feet of track provide facilities for operating 1,000 freight cars at a time. . This plant includes 9 buildings for manufacturing, separately located, but connected by rail with the water terminal. During the war, the entire water terminal, piers, warehouses, and car yards were taken WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2315 over by the United States Army, and the 9 separate factories were taken by the Navy. City piers. —The city of New York has recently built six piers on this waterway, as follows, from south to north: 1. Market Pier, 1,200 by 400 feet, uncovered. Slip 200 feet wide, dredged to 20 feet on the south side, to 35 feet on the north side. 2. Thirty-fifth Street Pier, 1,700 by 150 feet, covered with one-story corrugated- steel shed. Slip 290 feet wide, dredged 35 feet. wº 3. Thirty-third Street Pier, 1,640 by 150 feet, covered with one-story corrugated- steel shed. Slip 275 feet wide, dredged 40 feet. 4. Thirty-first Street Pier, 1,480 by 150 feet, covered with one-story corrugated- steel shed. Slip 260 feet wide, dredged 40 feet. 5. Thirtieth Street Pier, 1,320 by 135 feet, covered with one-story corrugated-steel shed. Slip 235 feet wide, dredged 35 feet. 6. Twenty-ninth Street Pier, 1,200 by 80 feet, uncovered. These piers were built for lease to steamship lines, and were so occupied until, during the war, they were taken over by the United States Navy. A double track extends down each pier, except the Market Pier and the Twenty-ninth Street Pier. Tt connects with the Brooklyn Rapid Transit system, and via the Bush Terminal with the Long Island Railroad. Hoists are mounted on the larger piers. Freights are usually handled by the ship's hoist, either directly to àe pier or to lighters. City streets reach the shore ends of the piers. State Barge Canal Terminal.—At the northeast end of Bay Ridge Channel the State of New York has acquired a tract of about 40 acres area, one-half of which has been filled to make upland and has been bulkheaded along 870 feet of front. The other half constitutes a basin about 1,000 feet square, dredged to 35 feet depth, except on the site for two piers, not yet built, to be 150 feet wide and, respec- tively, 900 and 1,100 feet long. This terminal is designed for trans- ferring freight from canal barges direct to ocean vessels. It will have 3,200 linear feet of dockage. It is not yet in operation, and its completed cost will be about $1,345,000. Erie Basin.—This is a basin of about 50 acres area, inclosed by a bulkhead of cribs filled in, the bulkhead being 300 feet wide and three-quarters of a mile total length, with entrance from Red Hook Channel. Erie Basin has two commercial piers and five others used mainly as berths for vessels out of commission or awaiting repairs. A small amount of commerce is transacted along the bulkhead. The chief importance of this basin is that it holds one of the largest and busiest ship-repair and dry-dock plants in the harbor. The dry docks are second in size only to the large docks at the navy yard. There are two other dry-dock plants in the basin, relatively small. The actual commerce transacted does not require special mention. §). HARLEM RIVER, N. Y. This is a waterway 8 miles long extending from East River on the south to Hudson River on the north and separating Manhattan Island from the mainland. Its natural width varied from 300 to 1,500 feet, with available depth of 10 feet for the first 4% miles from East River to High Bridge, where it was obstructed by a ledge with 6 feet depth; north of High Bridge for 13 miles depths of 6 to 7 feet prevailed, followed by a stretch of 1 mile where the depth was Very little at low tide; the last mile to Hudson River had about 4 feet 2316 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. - * The bottom and banks at several points consisted of ledge I’OCK. The existing project calls for a channel 15 feet deep at mean low water and 400 }. wide throughout, except at Washington Bridge, where the adopted width is 354 feet and at Dyckman Meadows rock cut, where the width is 350 feet with 18 feet depth. The mean rise of tide is 5 feet at the East River end and 3.7 feet at the Hudson River. The present available depth through the entire river is 12 feet, being limited by a ledge, not yet wholly removed, at Macombs Dam, 34 miles from East River; elsewhere a depth of 15 feet exists, but not with full width. The project is about 58 per cent completed. Character and eatent of commerce.—The largest classified items of commerce by water are fuel, grain, building materials, and ashes. These amount to 40 per cent of the total tonnage, the rest being made up of small items and of items not classifiable except as general merchandise. This commerce in 1918 amounted to 11,298,747 tons, valued at $1,447,737,000. . Size and type of vessels.-Vessels engaged in Harlem River traffic are steamers up to 977 tons and 15 feet draft and barges, lighters, canal boats, and car floats up to 1,200 tons, with 16 feet draft, towed by tugs of 6 to 15 feet draft, together with occasional sailing vessels with draft from 6 to 12 feet. The total number of vessels arriving in 1918 was 41,673. + Terminal facilities.—Harlem River has a direct water front, includ- ing both sides, of 16 miles length. Five miles have been developed with piers and bulkheads, giving a total dockage of 49,000 feet, 40 |. cent of which is owned by the city of New York and is either eased, used by the city, or held open to the public on equal terms. Of the remaining 60 per cent about 60 per cent (36 per cent of total) is owned or controlled by railroads and used mainly for transferring freight cars, the rest being used by parties engaged in commerce and by public ferries. The methods of handling freights vary with the freights and the distances; they consist of steam and electric hoists and derricks, cranes and belt conveyors, and locomotive cranes. These are of usual types and in very general use; a partial list show's 49 power hoists, etc., in operation. All terminals are reached by well-paved highways. Other data.-Harlem River has very little through traffic from Hudson River to East River and Long Island Sound. The State of New York has acquired land for barge canal terminals at One hundred and thirty-eighth Street, Flushing, and Port Morris, and with the completion of these terminals the through route will be much more used. To make this satisfactory the channel should be further straightened and widened at certain points. Plans for this are now under consideration, as is also the possibility of shortening the course by opening Bronx Kills to a navigable channel. BUTTERMILK CHANNEL, NEW YORK HARBOR. This is a channel of New York Upper Bay, connecting East River with the main harbor channel by a route about 2% miles long, the upper mile and a half following the Brooklyn shore from Montague Street to Red Hook and the lower mile being in the open water of the upper bay. Governors Island, owned by the United States as an Army post, lies between Buttermilk Channel and the main channel. 2. WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2317 The upper part of Buttermilk Channel had a natural depth of 26 feet, but was so narrow and crooked as to be hardly navigable. It has been dredged 30 feet deep for a width of 800 feet, with 26 feet depth over 200 feet of additional width. The lower part of the chan- nel had natural depths of 30 feet or more in a broad, straight course. The existing project, completed in 1905, resulted in the depths and widths given above. Slight shoaling has reduced the available depth to 29 feet. The mean rise of tide is 4.4 feet. Character and eatent of commerce.—The principal items of commerce from last data collected are fuel, naval stores, and varied southern and foreign articles received, and manufactures and building mate- rials shipped, totaling 16,587,000 tons, valued at $658,000,000. It is believed these amounts are greater now. Other freights pass through Buttermilk Channel to or from various parts of New York Harbor in large quantities, the amount of which is not known. Size and type of vessels.-This commerce is transacted in steel ships 1,000 to 6,000 tons and 18 to 29 feet draft, and in occasional sail ves- sels up to 24 feet draft. Harbor freights are transferred or received on barges, lighters, canal boats, and car floats of draft up to 16 feet. Terminal facilities.—Buttermilk Channel has 16 piers on its open water front and 4 more in Atlantic Basin, an inshore basin of about 42 acres area and with total wharfage front of 2 miles length. Ex- cepting three ferry slips and small bulkheads at street ends, this entire water front is controlled by the New York Dock Co. and is leased to 11 steamship lines, three piers being Open to tramp ships. The piers are all covered. They are not provided with power facili- ties for handling cargoes, dependence being placed on ships’ booms and hoists. The several piers are generally interconnected by a water-front railroad. They are connected with the railroad systems of the coun- try by car floats, with two bridges for transfer of cars. NEWTOWN CREEK, N. Y. This is a waterway extending about 3 miles in a general easterly direction from East River at 4 miles north from the Battery. In its original condition it had an available depth of 17 feet in a bay at its mouth. The width and depth decreased to the east, and in its upper part it was a narrow tidal stream with several branches through marsh lands, running bare at low tide. Its availability for receiving local supplies led to its early use, and with the rapid growth of near-by parts of Brooklyn this use was largely extended, and manufacturing interests located along the banks of the stream, which had been bulkheaded. Under improvements begun by the United States in 1880 the chan- nel has been dredged to 18 feet depth, with a width in the main stream of 125 feet. The depth has shoaled to 14 feet in the upper reaches. The mean rise of tide is 4 feet. The existing project, adopted in 1919, is for a depth of 20 feet, with widths from 250 feet at the mouth to 125 feet in the upper parts of the channel. It has been impossible to obtain prices for dredging within the limits fixed by the appropriation act, and work upon this project has not been begun yet. Character and extent of commerce.—The principal articles of com- merce in Newtown Creek are fuel, mineral oil and products, copper 23.18 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. and ores, lumber and other building and road materials, local and miscellaneous supplies, which in 1918 reached a total of 4,369,136 tons, valued at $323,000,000. Coal is handled chiefly near the ex- treme end of the branch called English Kills, lumber near the lower end of that branch, mineral oils at about 2 miles above the mouth of Newtown Creek and at scattered points, copper and chemicals at 23 miles above the mouth. Size and type of vessels.-Commerce is carried in steamships of ton- nage up to 4,000 tons and draft to 18 feet, in Sail vessels (mainly for lumber) to 900 tons and 18 feet draft, and in barges, canal boats, and lighters up to 2,000 tons and 17 feet draft. The total number of arrivals of vessels in 1918 was reported as 43,067. Terminal facilities.—The bulkheads along the north shore of New- town Creek have connection with the Long Island Railroad which runs parallel to and close by the stream; those on the south shore are dependent upon highway approaches, generally fair. All of the principal landings are provided with either steam or electric hoists and cranes of moderate size and ordinary type fitted to their work. Several of the mineral oil stations are connected by pipe lines passing under the bed of the creek. Other data.--Navigation in Newtown Creek is hampered by its in- sufficient width. The shores were bulkheaded and built up many years ago with reference to the then existing needs and without anticipation of such a volume of traffic as has now developed. To widen it now so as to permit of pier construction would involve costs altogether prohibitory. The existing project, when completed, will relieve this condition at the only points where relief is now practicable. WALLABOUT CHANNEL, NEW YORK HARBOR. This is a waterway 230 to 350 feet wide and 2,000 feet long, branching of southerly from East River at 2% miles northeast from the Battery. It is separated from East River by the Navy ordnance dock, generally j Cob Dock; only the east side of Wallabout º is available for commercial use. It had a natural depth of 15 feet. The existing project, completed in 1900, provided a channel the full dimensions of the waterway, with depth of 20 feet. Substan- tially this depth still exists in mid-6hannel, the sides being shoal. The depths along bulkheads are about 16 feet, and in slips, privately º available depths are from 8 to 16 feet. Mean rise of tide is 4 feet. º Character and extent of commerce.—The chief articles of commerce are fuel, grain, petroleum products, provisions. and miscellaneot's supplies, which in 1918 amounted to 1,707,079 tons, valued at $13,700,000. A large sugar refinery is located in East River at the mouth of and extending into Wallabout Channel. Size and type of vessels.-Freights are received almost wholly from other parts of the port of New York and near-by waters, and are carried in lighters, barges, canal boats, and car floats of tonnage up to 1,500 tons and of drafts from 4 to 17 feet. The vessels are moved by harbor tugs of usual type, having draft up to 12 feet. Terminal facilities.—All of the east side of the channel is occupied, the northern part by bulkheads with manufacturing buildings close WATER TERMINAL AND THANSFER FACILITIES. 2319 to the front. At and near the southern end are five piers owned by the city of New York, three of which are leased to railroad companies, and two are used in connection with a city market where large quantities of meats and provisions are received. The railroads occupying city piers are Pennsylvania Railroad, New York Central & Hudson River Railroad, and Lehigh Valley Railroad: Baltimore & Ohio Railroad occupies a city bulkhead, and Delaware, Lackawanna & Western owns and occupies a bulkhead. None of these have power facilities for handling freights. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co. has a car-float bridge and three electric hoists for handling coal; retail coal dealers have five steam hoists, and other interests have one electric and three steam hoists. A milling company located on one of the slips has a grain elevator with a marine leg conveyor. All of these are of usual types adapted to the local uses. STATEN ISLAND SOUND (KILL WAN KUILL AND ARTHUR KILL), NEW YORK HARBOR. Staten Island Sound is a narrow strait about 17 miles long lying between New Jersey and Staten Island. It connects Raritan Bay with Upper New York Bay, and consists of the Arthur Kill, about 12 miles long, extending from Raritan Bay at Perth Amboy, N. J., to Newark Bay; the lower end of Newark Bay, 2 miles wide; and Kill Van Kull, 3 miles long, connecting the lower end of Newark Bay at Bergen Point with Upper New York Bay at Constable Hook. The shores of Kill Van Kull are extensively developed for commercial purposes, with large oil refineries, metal refineries, coal piers, ship yards, etc. The New Jersey side of the Arthur Kill is also developed to a large extent and contains many large industries. The Staten Island shore is not developed to such a degree because there are no railroad connections along a great part of its length and because of the fact that the natural deep water of the waterway hugs the Jersey shore. The existing project provides for a channel 25 feet deep at mean low water and 400 feet wide from deep water east of Shooters Island to Perth Amboy, a distance of about 14 miles, with a suitable turning basin of the same depth at the mouth of Fresh Kills. Another project provides for a “channel north of Shooters Island,” 1 mile in length, 300 feet wide, and 16 feet deep, connecting the main channel of the Arthur Kill with that of Newark Bay. This latter project also provides for the removal of two middle grounds—one at the site of the old Corner Stake Light, the other in the main channel of Newark Bay northeast of Shooters Island; and also for the removal of a portion of Bergen Point Teef to a depth of 16 feet mean low water. The 16-foot project is practically completed. The 25-foot project is about 70 per cent completed, and the project depth can be carried from Newark Bay to Chrome, N. J. The Kill Van Kull has a natural controlling depth of about 27 feet at mean low water. Character and eatent of commerce.—The commerce of the waterway is large and diversified. It consists principally of coal, oil and oil products, clay products, Ores, chemicals, fertilizer, grain, machinery, manufactures, building materials, and general merchandise. The commerce for the calendar year 1918 for the section of the waterway 2320 WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. under improvement by the Federal Government amounted to 30,591,273 short tons, valued at $1,004,094,167. The total commerce of the waterway for the same period amounted to 41,429,257 short tons, valued at $1,405,883,423. Size and type of vessels.-The tonnage transported in 1918 over the section of the waterway under Federal improvement was carried in 95,541 vessels, divided as follows: Steam vessels, drawing from 6 to 28% feet when fully loaded. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14,080 Sailing vessels, drawing from 4 to 23 feet. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1,030 Barges, drawing from 3 to 22 feet------------------------. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 64,401 Power boats, launches, etc., drawing from 3 to 6 feet............ . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16,030 It is estimated that about 3 per cent of the steam vessels when loaded over 25 feet had to be partially lightered before they could dock. About the same class of vessels carried the commerce of Kill Van Kull, except that there was a larger proportion of ocean-going steamships, and these vessels were larger owing to the increased depth of water there. They were from 300 to 500 feet long and drew up to 31 or 32 feet when fully loaded. Other data.-There are eight terminals on the waterways of such interest and commercial importance as to justify further details. In order from New York Upper Bay south: Baltimore & Ohio Railroad terminal at St. George, Staten Island, N. Y. Standard Oil Co., at Bayonne, N. J. Central Railroad of New Jersey coal terminal, Port Johnson, Bayonne, N. J. Standard Shipbuilding Co., Shooters Island, N. Y. Central Railroad of New Jersey coal and freight terminal, Elizabethport, N. J. Baltimore & Ohio Railroad coal terminal, Arlington, Staten Island, N. Y. Philadelphia & Reading Railroad coal terminal, Port Reading, N. J. Lehigh Valley Railroad coal and freight terminal, Perth Amboy, N. J. Baltimore dº Ohio Railroad terminal, St. George, Staten Island, N. Y. —This is the eastern terminal of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. It is used as a coal and freight terminal and for transferring cars, coaling vessels, etc. There are 13 open-pile timber piers affording an aggregate available dockage space of about 12,765 feet, and timber- bulkhead wharves aggregating an available dockage length of 1,320 feet. There is a McMyler coal-car dumper on one of the piers which dumps coal from cars directly into vessels. There are warehouses having storage capacities of 105,300 square feet floor space. These terminals are directly connected with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. They have no direct highway connection, but good paved streets are near by. The depth of water at the piers varies from 7 to 23 feet. Standard Oil Co., Bayonne, N. J.-This is the importing plant of the Standard Oil Co. located at Constable Hook, Bayonne, N. J. It is used largely for unloading oils from vessels to refineries. It consists of eight open-pile timber piers, having a total available dockage space of 6,640 feet, and timber bulkheads aggregating 1,330 feet. The depth of water varies from 8 to 30 feet. The piers are equipped with pipe lines and pumps for unloading and loading oils. The plant has direct connection with the Central Railroad of New Jersev and the Lehigh Valley Railroad, but there is no direct con- nection with the piers. Central Railroad coal piers, Port Johnson, Bayonne, N. J.-A terminal for transferring coal from cars to vessels. It consists of an oyen-ºile coal trestle having an available docking space of 3,570 feet, WATER TERMINAL AND TRANSFER FACILITIES. 2321 and an open-pile mooring pier having 2,940 feet of docking space. The depth of water is 15 to 23 feet. These docks are directly con- nected with the Central Railroad Co. of New Jersey. Standard Shipbuilding Co., Shooters Island, N.
