Ttepair to the boiler of the big gov.
eminent areffge untnoolc wui be com
piled by tonight, and If the weather Is
favorable dredging operation on the
Columbia bar will be resumed Monday.
The boiler of the Chinook are 11 year
old and of lata had been leaking. Sub
bLintial repairs have been made and
no more difficulty from this source is
anticipated.
J. T. Hubbard, dredge master of the
Chinook, expresses the opinion that
eminently satisfactory results will be
obtained at the mouth of the Columbia.
Mr. Hubbard ha been In the govern
ment service for year and ia bad
charge of some of the moit Important
undertaking In the country. While as
a rule it 1 necessary to keep dredges In
constant operation, the result secured
are wonderfully beneficial, and a com
pared with other harbor the Columbia
offers an excellent field for work.
"The government bag eecured most
atisf&ctory result in the harbor of
the south," said Mr. Hubbard, "and
the utility of dredge ha been conclu
sively demonstrated. When we took a
dredge to the Charleston, S. C, harbor
there wa but nine feet of water on the
bar. When we finished operations the
depth wa 2Vj feet. At Fernandlna,
Fla., we undertook to deepen a nine
foot bar and provided a depth of 24 feet
At Fernandlna there is now a straight
channel 24 feet In depth from deep
water Inside to deep water outside.
At Key West the channel was deepen
ed from six feet to IS feet; at George
town, from seven feet to 15V4 feet.
"Dredging operations are constantly
carried on at Sandy Hook, the New
York harbor, and the government 1
now building two dredges for use there
The necessity for dredging operations
at many of our harbors is realised by
the government, and eight or 10
dredges are now in the course of
construction for the various harbors In
the eastern states and In the south.
"While the Fernandlna improvement
was cnrrled on I kept close watch onthe
progress of the work. There we had
a dredjee provided with 18-Inch pumps,
and after the work was well under
'way we found we could secure an aver
age depth of .3 of an Inch dally. Here
we have 20-Inch pumps and should se
cure equally as good results. At Fern
dlna the greatest amount of sand
handled per minute wa 29 cubic yards.
The greatest amount thus far handled
on the Columbia river bar has been 24
cubic yards, - but we will handle SO
when we have made a good start."
Mr, Hubbard added that conditions
were much more favorable here than at
NewOrleans where the har!or ha been,
deepened to an extent that permits the
handling of the largest carrier that
ply the Atlantic. Dredging operations
are now being carried on at New Or
leans In the southwest entrance, oppo-
site the famous Eada Jetty. -
"I am satisfied a deep entrance can
be provided at the mouth' of the Colum
bit," Bald Mr. Hubbard, in conclusion,
"and we only need favorable weather
to demonstrate It."
