They contem plate tho deepening of channols In tlio. Hudson river, at a cost of $1,G70 0(lb, for tho greater accommodation ot Atlantic liners. Tho projects In volved are approved by Gcnorol Blx by, chief of engineers. Thoro Is hard ly a Question but that they will hav. Inc. approval of tho commlttco and of Congress, for tho slmplo reason that tlfelr nocosslty Is mado clenr. It intght bo said with propriety In this connection thnt whonovor Now York lias tho Improvement of Its harbor In vTcuv no offort is Bparod by those rep resenting tho city to clarify tho mat tvr. for the honeflt of those represent ing the government. It Is Bhown In tho present Instanco Clint-Increased depth In tho Hudson In demanded In order to moot tho re quirements of tho largo transatlantic poBRongor vessels that ply as far tip tits. Twonty-thlrd stroot and tho largo rrolght carriers that go higher than Chat point. Conditions hnvo changed Irf. shipping during tho last few years, nud tho modorn harbor must adjust Itself to theso changes. Tho chnn tirJfl that woro deep enough to ac commodate tho biggest liners a do endo ngo will not do today. Tho plan now Is for tho dredging of a chnnnol 800 foot wldo and 30 feet doop at moan low wator off Rills Island to Nowark stroot, Hobokcn; tcr.doeiion nn lrrogulnr-shhncd shoal oITHntnhurg avenue to a depth of 10 Coot; to dredgo a chnnnol SCO wldo and '10 deep nlong tho Wcohnwkon TCdgowator waterfront; to romovo an iTrrogulnr-Rhnpod Hhoal In tho oast uldo or tho river botwecn West Nln loonth street nnd tho West Thirty wocond stroot to a dopth of 40 foot, aid to romovo rock near tho Battory nnd on obstruction near Spuytcn Duy vll crook. Thoflo dotalls aro worthy of con Hldorntlon, bocnuso thoy may sorvo to mow other ports that aro loomng 'forward to Incroascd business how thoroughly and sweoplngly Now York KotB about Its harbor affairs. Noth tug Is asked horo that will not np 1xar mnsonnblo; thoro Is no hosltn llon about asking for ovorythlng thnt Is necessary to Improvo tho channels of tho loading harbor of tho country Would not the nttentlon to details, tho thoroughness nnd clear ness, ho manifest In tho procoduro of Now York, not only lioro but In nil Wicii casos, bo vnlunblo to other ports In pressing forwnrd tholr claims for Kovornmout aid to linprovoinonts? Tho commorco of tho country Is Krowlng rapidly; unusunl Impetus will bo given the shipping industiy ly the opening of tro Pnuniua ca nal. Tho nntlon will not bo ponurl oua In dealing with thoso ports thnt wn nnd will show good rnuBO for claiming appropriations, but It Is n first essential thnt the rlnlnn shall tin sot forth clearly and fully and that tlry bo prosecuted vigorously.
