- age of Two-.HundreLSixty -Feet
Thirty Feet of Water Alongside.
Prt-Daratory to building one of the
. finest docks on the east aide .of the
river, Joseph Supple began yesterday
' afternoon clearing away the deJTrla from
the upper part of his shlpysrd, which
1 - lias been chosen as the. alts for the jiew
structure. It will have. a water front-
age of f0 feet and extend out into the
. : river for a distance of 100 feet. At the
lowest - stage .. of the . river, the water
' will be about 89 feet deep alongside of
the dock.
The wharf will be used principally a
place at which shipbuilding can be
--- conducted on a more extensive scale
than Is now possible. In many' instances
lti..Jis i)enfound.thatTeBsels could
- have Tieen repaired "easily"' without 'th
. necessity of pulling them put on tha
' ways If 'the proper facilities, had' been
"7" provided." It Is the intention to make
adequate arrangements for overhauling
work of this nature Just as soon aa the
dock has been built. A contract was let
yvsterday for 600 piles. These timbers
will be at the site, it is believed, by the
- latter part of next week. ' While ship
building and repair , workv Will; be the-
- main uses to which tha dock will be
. arranged that Irelgli

quired for that purpose. :
rA driveway- from - ha-feot-of - Water
- street, and extending down Tsmhtll and
on through the full width of tha dock
will also bar built by Mr. Supple. - This
will be done' la order to make it easy
, of access to tha fire department A
. place will also always be kept vacant
facing the- river to make it possible for
the flreboat to secure a berth there.
It Is said that this will be about taa-
- only point on mi east siae or ins river
which the flreboat will be able to reach
;-. with ease. '-.---
. A large number of shacks are stand?
- ing in the vicinity of the proposed dock
at present , end the work of removing
'. them wss started yesterdsy afternoon.
Home of them were torn down by means
of cables operated by the steam engine
used at the shipyards. The numerous
houseboats moored in tha vicinity will
be shifted to some other locality the
first of the week. The dock Will be
built out flush to the harbor line. The
ways will still remain at tha lower part
