Gratifying Progress of the Wort At The Houtli of tlie Riyer. uxderil vorajile cosmtioxs. Yesterday The Astokiax presented tho report of the chief of the TJ. S. corps of engineers to the secretary of war, regarding the progress of the jetty at the mouth of the Columbia river. To-day is given an excerpt from the report of Major Thos. H. Handbury jrivimr further details of the progress of the work during the past season. previous ones, iney are very satia- factory and seem to be just what is He says: needed for the purpose. "Wo have At the end of the last fiscal year the now 10 model barges belonging to the jetty tramway was at station CO plus -10 ( plant and the mattress work was at station To tow these barges over the rongh 54 plus 62, station 25 plus 80 being re- vrnier between Astoria and Fort Stev garded as tho root or commencement ens and to do other necessary work of of the jetty proper.

Author 432 feet j ity was asked and granted to purchase During tho season from November .a boat suited to tho purpose, to be iKf. in Anril iKf.iintrnrk was done on ' built from plans and specifications the jetty tramway because of rough seas and stormy weather. Some mat ...... - - i J tress work was done during occasional fair weather, and tho rock was dumped upon the line of tho jetty at all times when barges could lie at the wharf. Between June 30, 1SS3 and January 31, 18S9, 18,463 tons of rock were re ceived, being the last under an ar rangement in force for the purchase of 30,000 tons in open market. After due advertisement for propos als, a formal contract was entered into with Perry Uiukle, under dale of .Jauury 8, lSbO. to furnish 150,00.) tons of rock, delivered on board barges at his quarry landing, winch is about l 2 j miles above Vancouver on the L luiubia river. For this the govern ment is to pay 64 cents per ton of 2.OU0 pound, with the option of in creasing the amount to 300,000 tons if desirable. The first rock under this contract va received at Fort Stevens February 32, and up to the end of the fiscal year there has been received 45,005 tons. The rock is a good, strong basaltic lava that will f-taiul the action of the sea without disintegra tion, and is satisfactory in every re spect It is being delivered in pieces varying form 50 pounds to 7 tons, and in proportions as required. The total quantity used during the year is 03, 468 tons. Three thousand tons of this was dumped near the root or the jetty and along the spur in front of the shore-trestle, to prevent erosion in that locality. The remainder was placed along the line of the jetty proper. There has been purchased during the j ear 80,500 lineal feet of piling, at a cost of 8 cents per foot, delivered. They vary in length from 55 to 70 feet They have been used in the extension of the jetty tramway, in extension and J enlargement of wharf, shore-trestle. gridirons for storage or supplies, and various other purposes connected with the work. The lumber used during the year for the same purposes and for addi tional shops and sheds amounted to SSOOOfeet. Tho most of thiswhich was rough lntnber, cost $10.75 per thousand feet, delivered tit Fort Stev ens. On the 9th of March contract was entered into with Charles P. Church for furnishing 0,000 cords of fascines at $2.74 per cord 128 feet, and 10,000 poles at 24 cents each, delivered at Fort Stevens. At the end of the year 2,189 cords of fascines and 3,062 poles had been received under this contract cords of fascines and 8,662 poles have been used. Threo hundred and ono tons, 2,210 pounds each, of steel 30-ponnd rails, have been purchased; ono lot of 91 tons at $53 per ton, a second lot of 210 tons at $15 per ton, both delivered at Astoria For several years past the shore on which tho wharf at Fort Stovensis built has been encroaching upon the channel, and from time to time it has been neces ary to extend tho wharf to correspond with this encroach ment Point Adams on this side, as like wise on the side next to the ocean, has been increased to the extent of sev eral acres, Early last fall it became evident that the wharf would have to be extended again, and also enlarged, to accommodate the large amount of material that would be used in the con struction of the jetty during the com ing season. The proper authority having been obtained, a new wharf head, 240 feet long and 48 feet wide, was built, 130 feet in advance of the old, and connected with it This wharf was intended for the accom modation of two stone barges on its head at the same time, with space for barges and boats containing other material to be unloaded on its ends and inner side. It was expected also t hat iha ,m i,nrr rwibt cHii hoiiwi Tim mi; mil l.fw rvmtinunii nii iio ni.i imr? ; ,,f i;m t,n.-;. ;t ; iu.v,.r still used for unloading light draught boat. Three tracksare required on the wharf for tho accommodation of tho stone cars and for m.ikiug up the trains. There aro on the hoad of the wharf two largo derricks with two double cylinder 10 by 16 inches, Mundy hoisting engines with boilers, for hoisting rock from tho barges into the cars. A largo extent of platform area and switch yid side track facilities have been found necessary for the proper handling of the material. For these purposes 5.625 feet of track were laid durinff the year. The ac tion of tho salt water upon the mils of the iettv tramway is causing them hem to corrode ranidlv." It has been found necessary ts renew about 1,000 feet of these rails, which had become so ranch weakened by the corrosion as to make it d'uigerous to transport loaded trains hver them. The heavy storms that occurred during the hich tides of early spring caused considerable erosion of the shore on the north side near tho root of the jetty, and at one time seriously threatened the tramway in that locali ty. By building back a spur and dumping in rock liberally everything was made secure. The shore trestle in this vicinit' was strengthened for a distance of about 2,000 feet It early became evident that if the locomotives, cars, hoisting engines, and other parts of the plant were to be kept in an efficient slate of repairs at anything like a reasonable cost, a machine-shop with a proper outfit of tools must bo provided. A shop 100 feet long by 30 feet wide was built of rough boards. This is divided into three parts for machine-shop, blacksmith-shop and car-Bhop. In these are placed ono 8-foot by 16-inch ma chine lathe, two drill-presses, one bolt-cutter, one fan, threo blacksmith fires, and other tools required by the work. A 10 horse-power engine with boiler, furnishes the necessary power. The cost of these articles was in the neighborhood of $1,500. At the end of the last fiscal year there were four model barges belong ing to this -wrork built for the purpose of transporting rock. These had a capacity of about 2S0 tons each. During" the months of July and Au gust two more of about the same ca pacity were purchased at a cost of S5,500each. A contract was entered into with Messrs. Paquet & Smith, November 5, 1888, for four more barges, to be psid for at the rate of S5.870 each. These were all 'com pleted early in March, 18S9. Their general dimensions were, length 120 feet, beam 32 feet, depth 8 feet, with a capacity of about 500 tons each. In building these, advantage was taken of the experience trained with the r .1 1 fill.- 1 L ."1.. r mrnisueu. .lijjs uoul was ruuu iui service about the 20th of May, and cost, complete, $20,000. It is SO feet 6 inches in length over all and 18 feet beam, and draught of about 7 feet Tho engines are inverted componnd or receiver type, with cranks at right angles. The c linders are 12 and 22 inches diameter with 18 inches stroke. The reversing gear is operated by steam. The propelbr is 5 feet I) inches diameter. The boiler is of the Scotch type, steel, 9 feet 3 inches di ameter by 10 feet long, contains two furnaces each 36 inches mi-idc diame ter and 124 3-inch return tubes. The niachinen was built by Xeafle & lev . Peiinlvaiii.i Works, Philadelphia; tho hull and cabin by .John F. bleilen, Portland, Oic. The boat throughout is !irt cla- in every respect and her performances thus iar are very satis iaclory. It is able lo handle with ease against a strong ebb tide two of the laige slono barges loaded. This boat has been named (Ji. 11. Jhndtll. While it was being built the govern ment bleamer Omciul Wright wsls used to do the towing work about Fort Stevens. About the middle of February the government steamer Cascades, having been put in thorough repair, com menced towing tho stone barges be tween Astoria and the contractor's quarry, on tlys Columbia river 108 miles above. With this outfit of boats and the railroad plant and appliances at the works the rock can bo placed on the jetty at a cost of about $1 per ton. This of courso does not include the cost of the plant and its maintenance when not in use. Tho greater portion of the plant for the whole work is now provided. Hereafter a much larger proportion of the amounts appropri- ated will be expended on the jetty For further details concerning the progress of the work during the fiscal year attention is invited to the report of Assistant G. B. Hegardt, herewith transmitted, who has "been in immedi ate charge of the work during the greater portion of the year. At this point it is proper to mention the faithful and efficient service rendered by Mr. Hegardt in the discharge of this duly. HEAL ESTATE TRANSFERS JAN. 10.
