Now they are seldom held up for, mora thaa a day or two. - - . , . ' , Thla matter waa forcibly Impressed on the minds of the shippers In the last few.daya.

The last gov ernment survey ahowed a depth of 14 feet at the low water stage, an increase of three feet over- the. figures of the preceding season. . With more water cm the bar It more quickly becomes calm after a big storm. The Jetty la given credit for bringing about a deeper chan nel in that locality.

It will contain ao much water after the completion of the work that the atorma will have little more effect upon it than the sea several mllea distant from tha mouth .of the river. After having been convinced that the Jetty haa. already done an Inestimable amount of good It la hoped by thoae who follow the shipping bualneaa that no further delaya will be experienced Inl pushing the Jetty out into the sea the desired sjilatance.
