War Department, Office of the Chief of Engineers, Washington, February 12, 1914- From: The Chief of E^neers, United States Army. To: The Secretary of .War. Subject: Index to Reports of the Chief of Engineers from 1866 to 1912, inclusive. There is submitted herewith for transmission to Congress an index to the reports of the Chief of Engineers, United States Army, called for by the second paragraph of section 6 of the river and harbor act approved July 25, 1912, as follows: There shall also be printed one thousand five hundred copies of the index to the Report of the Chief of Engineers, United States Army, from eighteen hundred and sixty-six to nineteen hundred and twelve, inclusive, to include the reprinting of House Document Numbered Four hundred and thirty-nine, Fifty-seventh Congress, second session, covering the period from eighteen hundred and sixty-six to nineteen hundred, inclusivre, authorized by section thirteen of the act of June thirteenth, nineteen hundred and two; the additional information covering nineteen hundred and one to nineteen hundred and twelve, inclusive, to be furnished by the Secretary of War. Edw. Burr, Colonel, Corps of Engineers, Acting Chief of Engineers. , PEEFAOE. The necessity for a systematically arranged key or index to the printed annual reports of the Chief of Engiaeers, United States Army, was felt as early as 1878, when only 17 Tolumes of such reports existed. Under date of January 10, 1878, Maj. H. M. Kobert, Corps of Engineers, stationed at Milwaukee, proposed to prepare such a work. Brig. Gen. A. A. Humphreys, Chief of Engineers, approved the project, and expressed the opinion that the work should begin with the report dated March 1, 1866. The index was prepared under Maj. Robert's direction by his chief clerk, Dr. Samuel O. L. Potter, and Asst. Engineer Louis Y. Schermerhorn.' It embraces the reports from 1866 to 1879, iaclusive, and was printed in 1881. Maj. Rooert, in his letter of transmittal, printed in the index, describes the diffi- culties encountered in its preparation by reason of the incompleteness and inaccuracies found in the early reports and in securing harmony between the work done by the various indexers. A second volume, covering the reports from 1880 to 1887, inclusive, was compUed under the same direction by Mr. L. Y. Schermerhorn and Mr. Holden B. Schermerhorn, and was published in 1889. A third volume, covering the reports from 1888 to 1892, inclusive, was compiled under the direction of Maj. C. W. Raymond, Corps of Engineers, by Mr. L. Y. Schermerhorn and Mr. Holden B. Schermer- horn, and was published in 1895. The preparation of a fourth volimie under the same direction, covering the reports from 1893 to 1900, inclusive, was well advanced when it was decided to consolidate aU the volumes into an entirely new edition in order to save space and cost, to facilitate convenient reference, and to avoid the necessity for reprinting the first two volumes, the editions of the latter having been nearly exhausted. The second or "Raymond" index, issued in the form of three vol- umes in the year 1902 (H. Doc. No. 439, 57th Cong., 2d sess.), was prepared under direction of Lieut. Col. Raymond, the actual work of compiling aU the dififerent parts being done by Mr. John McClure, to whom Lieut. Col. Raymond gives great credit for the faithfulness and ability with which he conducted the work. The plan adopted by Mai. Robert in the preparation of the "Robert" index was essentiaUy the one followed m the later volumes and the "Raymond " index, with such changes and additions as experi- ence had shown to be desirable. In the "Raymond" index all the important matter contained in the annual reports of the Chief of Engi- neers was indexed, while the previous volumes omitted fortifications and some miscellaneous subjects. The "Abstract of Laws" was first introduced in the third volimie of the first index. . The plan of the abstract of fortification data was prepared by Lieut. Spencer Cosby, Corps of Engineers, then on duty under the orders of Lieut. Col. Ray- niond, and the index of fortifications would have been compiled by him had his services continued to be available. 9 10 INDEX TO REPORTS, CHIEF OP ENGINEERS, XJ. S. ARMY, 1866-1912, The plan adopted for the "Raymond" index was essentially as fol- lows: The subjects covered in the reports of the Chief of Engineers were classified as, (1) river and harbor works, (2) fortifications, (3) bridges, (4) laws, (5) miscellaneous. Each of these divisions or parts was mdexed (or abstracted) separately, the various subjects in each part (names of places, centers of coast defense, streams or harbors crossed by bridges, suggestive headings of laws, miscellaneous titles, etc.) being arranged ^phabeticaUy. The information abstracted or compUed under each sub-subject was set forth, in order of time gener- ally, imder a few important titles, arranged alphabetically, named and defined at the beginning of each part, the proper references to year, volume, and page being added to each statement or brief. A sum- mary of river and harbor appropriations followed the index of river and harbor works; and a topical index of engineering, physical and miscellaneous data, the topics or subject names being arranged in alphabetical sequence, closed the work. Experience with this divi- sion of subjects and alphabetical arrangement of data showed that it afforded a convenient and rapid means for finding any desired infor- mation contained in the annual reports, with some exceptions to be noted later. THE PRESENT INDEX. Under date of August 9, 1910, the Chief of Engkieers instructed Maj. Herbert Dbakyne, Corps of Enguieers, then in charge of the Philadelphia river and harbor district office, to prepare an index to the reports of the Chief of Engineers for the years 1901 to 1910, inclu- sive. On May 22, 1912, further instructions were issued to prepare a new consolidated index to replace the existiag "Raymond" index of three separate volumes and to include therein the reports for 1911 and 1912. Under date of August 9, 1912, the Chief of Engineers invited the attention of Lieut. Col. Joseph E. Kuhn, Corps of Engineers, who had succeeded Maj. Deakyne in charge of the Philadelphia office, to the fol- lowing provision in the river and harbor act approved July 25, 1912: Sec. 6. * * * There shall also be printed one thousand five hundred copies of the index to the report of the Chief of EngLneers, United States Army, from eighteen hundred and sixty-six to nineteen himdred and twelve, inclusivej to include the reprinting of House Document Numbered Four hundred and thirty-nine, Fifty-seventh Con- gress, second session, covering the period from eighteen hundred and sixty-six to nineteen hundred, inclusive, authorized by section thirteen of the act of June thir- teenth, nineteen hundred and two; the additional information covering nineteen hundred and one to nineteen hundred and twelve, inclusive, to be furnished by the Secretary of War. Steps were at once taken by Col. Kuhn to hasten forward the work contemplated, which had been progressing slowly, and the services of Mr. John McClure, who had prepared the second index, were secured for the purpose. Under date of January 12, 1914, instructions were issued, with the approval of Col. Goethals, chairman of the Isthmian Canal Commis- sion, by the Chief of Engineers, to treat the reports of the various Isth- mian Canal Commissions from 1899 to 1914 in the new index in the same manner as other projects executed under the Corps of Engineers.

"As to the effect of the improvement on freight rates the general manager of the principal foreign steamship lines entering this port states that about 30 years ago steamers were employed with a loaded draft of 20 to 24 feet; 22 or 23 years ago, of 25 to 26 feet; 14 years ago, 27 or 28 feet; 10 years ago, 28 feet 9 mches; later, 31 feet; and recently one of 33 feet lOJ inches. He states, generally, 'ttiat trei^t rates, caused by the larger class of steamers bemg used, are about 50 per cent less than they were some 15 or 20 years ago, when very much smaller steamers were engaged in the trade.'

The projects for the imp. of Boston H. have had for their object, first, its preservation by protecting the shores of the islds. and headlands by sea walls, aprons, and jetties, thus preventing additional wash into the chans., controlling the tidal scour, and preserving Uie full height of anchorage shelter for vessels in flie roadsteads; secondly, the imp. of the H. by w., d., and straightening the chans. throu^ dr. and r. removal, 90, 498. The imp. undertaken since 1866 have been proj. as the necessities of the H. required, being in general conformity with the recoms. of the U. S. commis- sioners, whose labors terminated in 1866. The projects in detail have been as follows: Pro- tection of w. shore line of Georges Isld. by st. apron, to cost 110,000, 88, 449. Increased in 1889 to S3S,000, 89, 679.

PROJECTS. (See Estimates.) The object for which app. have been made is the prevention or arrest of the movement of sand by the winds and waves, and the consequent protec- tion of Provincetown H. by the perpetuation of its low shore lines. The works of preservation have consisted mainly of detached bulkheads of timber and St., js. of wood and brush, dikes, sand-catch fences, and beacli grass planting. The earliest app. was made in 1826; between this date and 1864 $32,850 was app. for the constr. of js. and sand catches. 66, ui, 28. In 1866 the proj. for the prot«ctton of Beach Pt. and Long Pt. by the constr. of bulkhead js. was adopted, 66, ii, 29; 67, 464. In 1869 the constr. of a dike at High Head was undertaken to prevent a breach through the outer beach across the salt meadows and E. H. Creek, 69, 60, 420. In 1872 a dike was built at Abel Hill across the head of Lancey's H. to prevent the flow of the tide and sand into the inner H., 73, 950. Under subsequent app. the works of protection have been extended and maintained. From 1864 to 1886, inel., $139,478.44 was app., 86, 575; 87, 528.

COMMEBCE. Description of, 93, 879; 97, 937. "The result of the improvement has been to create a harbor of refuge fairly suitable for sailing vessels and steamers, though the holding ground is poor, but not well suitecf for tows of barges, on account of the narrowness of the entrances, the direction of the entering courses with respect to that of the worst seas, the lack of room necessary for maneuvering barges in tow, and the fact that the central part of the area is obstructed by a dan- gerous reef. "About 30 feet can be carried at mean low water into the eastern, and from 18 to 19 feet into the western, entrance. The mean range of tide is 3.1 feet. "One hundred and seventy-three vessels used the harbor during the iiscal year. Of these there were 142 sailing vessels, 12 steamers, and 19 barges.' ' 13, 129. CONTEACTS. 1893.

Nor does this include, barges, lighters, car floats, or privately owned craft; about 100 of these car floats, of large dimensions, pass through H. G. every day. Aside from lessening the dangers of navigation for such traiHc, perhaps the most desirous eflect of U.

The unprovement ac- complished so far has resulted in the establishment of an increasing passenger and freight packet busi- ness between the upper Hudson and New York. A direct result of the improvement has been to install in this service the largest river steamers to-day afloat in the United States, and in anticipa- tion of benefits to be derived from the existmg project two new steamboats, larger than their predecessors and stated to cost about Sl,250,000 each, are under construction. "The service of these steamers has resulted in strong competition with the railroads, by which freight rates are maintained within bounds. The status of water-borne freight traffic is at present unstable in view of the plans on foot for the de- velopment of traffic on the opening of the New ♦Allotment. iH. D.557,62d, 2a.

H. for 1911-12 shows its importance: "No comprehensive record of the commerce of the port of New York Is kept, and its magnitude and diversity preclude the possibility of preparing such tor this report. "The Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York in its annual report prepares with care a state- ment of imports from and exports to foreign coun- tries, but not including domestic, coastwise, and local traffic. This is the most accurate statement available for the Items which it covera, and from the report for the year ending June 30, 1911, the foUowmg data are compiled: "'The leading articles of import into the U. S. at New York for year ending June 30, 1911, were sugar, tea, coSee, wool, cloths, and dress goods, hides, leather and leather goods, furs, copper, tin, rubber, and tobacco, which, with other misc. imports, aggregated about 5,128,000 t.; value, $917,121,800. The value of such imports tor all other ports of the U. S. for the same period was $729,648,567. "'The leading articles of export were cotton, breadstufis, and other provisions, oils, tobacco, metals, and manufactures, which, with other items, amounted to about 8,453,215 t.; value, $827,756,334. The value of such exports for all otler ports of the U. S. for same period, $1,308,991,273. " 'Vessels trading with domestic ports are not required to take out clearance papers, and most of them do not; no statistics of their carrying trade are accessible.'" ♦Allotment. 'Many changes in the following list of appropriations might be made, showing in more detail the noses to which funds were applied speoiflcally. For Instance, "New York H., 1899, $1,000,000" designed for East Channel, since named Ambrose Channel, and was so expended. pur- [See pp. 14-22 fori Lexplanations, etc.J RIVEK AND HARBOR WORKS. 235 Statement of the number and tonnage of vessels belong- ing to the port of N'ew York, Jure SO. 1911.

"The entire cost of this improvement to 1912 is about seven-eighths of 1% of ui,e increase in valua- tion of annual foreign commerce alone, and is less than one-half of 1% of the annual value of foreign commerce. Recent compilations from reliable sources indi- cate an approximate annual tonnage for the port of New York of somewhat over 90,000,000 tons. "It is impossible to estimate the effect of the imp. upon freight rates. During 1911, 167 different ships with drafts of 27 feet or more, made 773 trips outward and 248 trips inward. Prior to the imp. none of these ships Could have crossed the bar to enter or leave the harbor except at extreme high tide or after hghtering." 13, 228. GOWANUS BAY CHANNELS. "Statistics for the calendar year 1908 were col- lected iu detail from the several wharves along the channel. They have been modified from year to year according to reports received from principal terminals, ana the resultant commerce of 1911 is, approxinmtely: Number of sailings 1, 100 Tonnage of cargo, t 4,502,000 Estimated value $232, 562, 000 "In addition to the above about 3,215,000 t. of domestic freight passed through these channels to and from Gowanus Creek, of value estimated at $33,000,000. "The amount and iroportance of commerce in this part of New York Harbor is increasing with the mcreased channel facilities. This section is now the terminal of steamship lines making regular trips to Central America, Brazil, Nova Scotia, Italy, Australia, and Sweden, and of more or less regular sailings to China, East Africa, India, etc. "During 1910 two foreign steamship lines located themselves at piers at the upper end of Bay Kidge Channel, one running to Russian ports and one to France." 12, 1509. "The effect of the imp. projected is undoubtedly to lower freight rates; these rates depend so largely upon the amount of business in hand and upon competition that it is impracticable to separate the effect of the imp. upon rates. A notable effect has been the growth of^foreign commerce and the class of ships which carry it, many of which could not have entered Bay Ridge Channel before its improve ment." 13, 230. CONEY ISLAND CHANNEL. Practically all the commerce of Jamaica Bay and its interior landings, Canarsie, Far Rockaway, etc., passes through l^is channel. Its amotmt, 1911, about 957,000 1. "Besides this, the chan. is alw^s used by gar- bage scows carrying refuse to the Bsirren Isld. dis- posal works; it is frequently used by tows of scows returning from sea after dumping dredgings. The amount of this navigation can not be accurately ascertained; it is quite large in tonnage, and with- out value. "Should the development of Jamaica Bay pro- gress as expected, for many years its commerce will be almost wholly with New York direct, and will be carried through Coney Isld.

The following shows the condition of the com- merce of the Delaware at 1912 — Philadelphia to the sea: "The gradual and systematic improvement of this section of the river and the increase in terminal facilities at the port of "Philadelphia have led to the establishment during the year (1911-12) of three new steamship lines trading with foreign ports, and several of the old established lines have added larger and deeper-draft boats to their fleet, while the number of deep-draft vessels having no regular port of call has increased. The owners of barges and canal boats trading on the river also report an Increase in their fleets. The principal commodities of commerce carried on the river dicing the year consisted of coal, lumber, ores, iron and steel prod- ucts, oils, sugar, grain, foodstiiffs, and general mer- chandise. No change in the nature of the commerce has remlted from existing improvements. The fol- lowing tabular statement shows the amount and value of commerce carried during the past 10 years: Calendar years. Short tons. Value. 1902 21,843,209 22,827,926 23,372,036 24,383,571 26,111,047 27,283,529 24,023,895 24,677,671 25,496,213 25,786,180 $1,621,239,450 1, 289, 965, 088 1903 1904 1,579,060,906 1905 1,612,847,499 1,472,540,364 1906 1907 1,538,385,389 1,249,175,518 1,327,869,862 1,340,391,894 1,209,879,741 1908 . 1909 1910 1911 " The improvement has had no appreciable effect on foreign and coastwise freight rates, except that which is brought about through competition between larger and deeper-draft vessels. The deeper-draft vessels trading at this port are generally engaged in foreign commerce, and rates on the class of freight usually carried are largely regulated by supply and demand. Freight rates by regular steamsmp lines plying between points located on the section of the .river xmder improvement average about 23 per cent lower than railroad rates between like points Rates on freight carried by small craft on this section of the river average about 50 per cent of railroad rates. The owners of barges engaged in transshipping report a slight decrease in freight rates owing to the increased amount of commerce moved." 18,285. Philadelpbia to Trenton: "The work of improvement has not advanced sufficiently to cause any increase in commerce or to have any efEect on freight rates." 13, 283. At mouth of Neversink R.: "The conunerce on this section of the river i3 confined to the rafting of lumber, railroad ties, and building stone. A committee of citizens of Port Jervis, N. Y., under date of April H, 1907, reported that the rafting commerce passing that pomt an- nually consisted of about 6,000,000 feet of limiber and, in addition, a considerable amount of struc- tural stone and thousands of railroad ties, the approximate value of which was S100,000. It was also estimated that this amount of commerce would continue for many years to come. The main object of the proposed improvement is to furnish relief from the effects of floods due to ice gorges at Port Jervis. It is not probable that the proposed improvement will have any efiect upon commerce or freight rates." 13, 280. Part (b), H-3 Delaware River, N. Mouth. J., Pa., Del. — Trenton to APPBOPBIATIONS.

COMMERCE. Imp. R. a cause for a reduction m rates, 96, 1030; 97, 1317. With increased d. more deep-draft vessels would seek port, 03, 1036. Deeper draft vessels engaged in trade here; rates much reduced, 05, 204. 1911, 796,900 1., 13, 366. "The work of the project Is now about 82 per cent completed and the benefits to navigation and general health of the community derived from the Improvement have been most marked. Larger and deeper draft vessels are now engaged In tr^e and it is imderstood that freight rates have been materially reduced from those formerly charged. The nfeximum draft that could be carried June 30, 1912, at mean low water over the shoalest part of the Washington Channel was 24 feet and of the Virginia Channel 17.5 feet. The mean range of tide is about 3 feet. The Potomac Elver is navi- gable to the foot of Little Falls, Si miles above Georgetown, but the Aqueduct Bridge, which crosses the river at Georgetown, 113 miles above the mouth of the river, has no draw and limits the navigation of large steamers and masted vessels. "The prmcipal articles of commerce, in the order of their relative values, are general merchandise, coal, fish, oils, lumber, oysters and clams, sand, and gravel, gasoline, produce, stone, manufactured iron, and steel, melons, crabs and Crab meat, fertilizers, laths, canned goods, asphalt, and ice. The receipts and shipments during 1911 amounted to 796,900 short tons and were estimated to be worth $12,- 996,447." 13,366. CONTRACTS. Washington and Georgetown Harbors: 1879. C. G.

Terminal facilities unsatisfactory, 13, 406. "The cliaonel length of the James River from Hampton Roads to the head of navigation at Bichmond, Va., for steamers and other craft, is 103,8 miles. The river is navigable tor rafting and logging for about three-fourths mile above the head of navigation for steamers. "The commerce of the river for the calendar year 1911 amounted to 472,537 short tons, having an estimated value of 127,004,696. Of the above, 285,126 short tons, having an estimated value of $26,096,183, represent the part of the commerce and its value lor the port of Bichmond, Va. "The above statistics, as compared with those tor the calendar year of 1910, show a decrease in the total of James River tonnage of about 9.8 per cent and in increase in value of about 6 per cent. ~ A comparison of the statistics for the port of Rich- mond, va., for the above periods shows an increase in tonnage of about 4.3 per cent and an increase in value of about 9.1 per cent. "The principal articles of commerce comprised general merchandise, logs, lumber, cordwood, rail- road ties, brick, coal, coal oil, fertilizer, and fertilizer material. "The work done has been beneficial in reducing the cost of water transportation of lumber, fertilizer material, coal, and other articles carried principally in sailing vessels and barges. In many instances the freight rates on commodities transported by steamers are the same as rail rates. At present the berthing and terminal facilities at Richmond are inadequate even for vessels of a draft that could now navigate the river. The city of Richmond proposes t» deepen the part of the channel situated between the improved channel and the site of a public wharf, on which work has been begun." 18, 405. CONTBACTS. 1870-71. B.

Chiefof Engineers, 1912, concurred in general witb the views of the BEBH., and deemed advisable "at the present time" the adoption of projects as follows: 1st. Constr. of 12' waterway, Norfolk, Va., to Beaufort Inlet, N. C, costing 15,400,000, embracing the following items: Norfolk to Albemarle Sound: Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal routes $2, 735, 000 Albemarle Sound to Pamlico Sound: Rose B. route 2,215,000 Brant Shoal Cut 65,000 Pamlico Sound to Beaufort Inlet, via Adams Creek Canal 396, 000 Total for 12' plan 5,400,000 2nd. Purchase of the existing Chesapeake & Delaware Canal, connecting Chesapeake B. with Delaware R., est., $2,614,290. Then its progressive change to tide level canal of 25' m. 1. w.; est., $9,910,210. Total initial cost, $12,424,500, $3,000,000 to be available immediately. The special BE. recommended constr. of sealevel canal 25' d. across N. J. bet. Delaware R. and Raritan B.; est., $45,000,000. Understood that State of N. J. would provide not to exceed $500,000 for purchase of right of way. BE. recom. de- ferring work on this part of the proposed contin- uous waterway \mtil the two immediate southern sections had been constr., "and until the necessary plant now at work on the Panama Canal shall be madeavailable." Muchless d. than 25' might do to meet the demands of C. Orders given for est. for a 12' d., upon completion of which furtherrecoms. may be made. Believed that local benefit to N. J. such that that State might defray more than the cost of the right of way. Withrespect to thesection bet. Fishers Isld. and New York B., this waterway section already of ample capacity save for some obstr. at western end being removed under other projs. (local). For the section bet. Narragansett B. and Long Isld. Sound, BE. recom. constr. of acanal 18' d. bet. Fishers Isld. Sound and Bissels Cove, Narragansett B., with an addl. entrance 18' d. just n. of Narra- gansett Pier; est., $12,322,000. Initiation of this work, on this section, should follow that on the N. J. section. State of R. I., it is understood, will provide free right of way so far as it can with $600,000. BE. doubted whether this inside section would be used sufficiently to warrant the large expend, required for Its constr. and mainten.; Chief of Engineers concurred that "it is not ad- visable for the U. S. to undertake theconstr.of this link of the proposed waterway at the present time." For the section bet. Boston and Narragansett B. the BE. prepared approx. est. for canals starting at Narragansett B.— one tor a canal 18' d. via Taunton and Plymouth to cost about $17,500,000, and another for a canal 25' d. via Taunton and Hingham to cost about $40,000,000. There was considered also the advisability of the U. S. buying the canal works under way connecting Buzzards B. with Cape Cod B. Mass. appointed a commission, "to consider in what manner the commonwealth may best cooperate with the Federal Government and certain other States in the development of inland waterways;" reported as follows: "Thecon- ditions of transportation may so change in the future as to make such a canal desirable and necessary, b ut the facts as they now appear do not warrant this commission in advocating the present constr. of the proposedcanal." TheChiefofBngineersconcurred with the BE. and the BERH that "at the present time there is no commercial necessaity sufficient to justify the constr. of a canal over either of the inland routes above mentioned, and that it is not con- sidered by me advisable for the U. S. to undertake at this time the constr. of such a canal or to enter into negotiation for acquisition of the Cape Cod Canal now in course of constr. by private parties." The Chiefof Engineers, in forwarding the R. of the BE., invited attention to its remarks concem- ngthe desirability of such legislative or municipal action as would insure the preservation of suitable sites for terminal facilities free from the adverse actions of monopolies or transportation companies. "* * * in many cases railways have been so operated as to throw obstacles in the way of dividing a long-distance carriage bet. rail and water, and to make an all-rail carriage most advantageous * * * it is certain that a policy of this kind * * * must eventually be chaiiged. * * * Until action has beentakenbytheNationandStates which will insure cooperation between transporta^ tion companies operating by rail and by water * * * the full benefits to be obtained from the imp. of waterways can not be had, and the benefits received must be measured mainly, by the lowering of rail freight rates to favored communities located on water routes."

"The amount of the commerce for the calendar year 1911 was 314,503 tons, valued at $5,322,569. It consisted mainly of lumber, timber products, cot- ton, provisions, and general merchandise. There has been little change in the nature of the conmierce during the past year. "This improvement and the operation of ocean- going steamers and sailing vessels appear to secure to Georgetown the usual port diflerentials which are designed to meet water competition, this particu- larly on througji freight from and to New York and Baltimore.

"The regular line of steamships established be- tween this port and New York, Boston, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Jacksonville comprise a total of 16 steamers. During the calendar year 1911, 8 of these ran to the two first-named ports and 8 to the last-named three. During the year they carried 1,033,498 short tons of freight, valued at 8146,766,716. They also handled in and out of Savannah 63,226 passengers. "A regular steamboat service is maintained on the Savannah River between Savannah and Au- gusta, Ga., a distance of 202 miles; a regular freight service is maintained between Savannah and the principal ports of the United Kingdom and Con- tinent of Europe, and in addition there is a fleet of American coastwise sailing vessels which operate between Savannah and northern ports. "On the inland waters there are a number of small steamers plying between Savannah and adjacent ports, besides numerous schooners and small sailboats. It is estimated that for the year 1911 this portion of the commerce amounted to 100,000 tons, valued at $1,600,000. "The chief articles of export are cotton, lumber, and naval stores, of which shipments for the year 1911 were as follows: Of cotton, 1,436,101 bales; of lumber, 135,487,693 feet; and of naval stores, 194,032 barrels of turpentine and 082,306 barrels of rosin. " The total amount of freight received and shipped at the port during 1911 was 2,954,814 short tons, valued at $246,678,077. "In collecting commercial statistics for this re- port, information has invariably been obtained from primary sources, and collections and tabula- tions made by committees or boards have not been adopted. This method prevents duplication, and, while it may give a result that is too small, it can not give inflated figures. For this reason the com- parison of the present statistics with those collected m former years would give results that would be wholly misleading." 13, 1816. CONTRACTS. 1879. R. C.

"Before the improvement of Cumberland Sound, in 1879, which constitutes the ocean entrance to Fernandina Harbor, the annual in and out bound tonnage at Fernandina was about 300,000 short tons, and the value of imports and exports esti- mated at about $2,500,000. The commerce of the port during the calendar year 1911 amounted to 511,133 short tons, with a value of $10,113,836. The chief articles of export are lumber, phosphate rock, and naval stores. "The effect of the improvement of Cumberland Sound has been to cause a reduction in freight rates of from 25 to 40 per cent. It has not been practicable as yet to determine what further effect, if any, the improvement of Fernandina Harbor has had upon these rates." 12, 1844. CONTBACTS. 1907.

Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, and for canal to connect Mobile and Pensacola Bays, reported ship canal across peninsula (couriecting Atlantic with Gulf of Mexico) not practicable; route, bet. heads of Santa Fe R. and Black Creek presented best passage across summit of divide; but since" the Suwanee K. was much obstr. at mouth, and had no H. at entrance, expedient to continue line of canal from Santa Fe R. to St. Mark, the whole route being 168 m. long, with an ascent and descent together of 224'. In view of inland coastwise navi- gation from Chesapeake Bay, necessary to open sloop canal from St. Marks to St. Johns. Respect- ing inland coastwise navigation, St. Marks to Mississippi, it should be rendered secure, safe, and commodious, by: (1) Canal along Crooked Creek, Ocklockony R. to convenient point in St. Georges Sound; (2) cleaning and d. of Santa Rosa Sound at meeting of tides;. (3) canal. Bay of Pensacola to Mobile Bay, through the Great Lagoon and R. Bon Secour; (4) d. of Pass au Heron, bet. point of Dauphin Isld. and mainland; canal from Lake Pontchartrain to Mississippi at or near New Or- leans, by Bayou Manchac, already proj., 76, 514. (Gen.

"Were it not for the improvement, freight rates from Florida to northern points would be 50 per cent greater than they are. "The work on previous projects has resulted in establishing favorable rates for this port, which permit it to reach tar into the Middle West. In Its incomplete state the present project can not be said to have had any effect on freight rates nor on the establishment of new business, though in anticipa- tion of deeper water the farseeing men in the city are striving to have adequate terminals to handle the large business which is expected with the com- pletion of the project." 13, 527.

"The existence of the St. Johns waterway has probably had an important effect in keeping down freight rates, but the increase of the channel to 13 feet has not, as far as known, caused any changes in rates. "This channel, hojvever, germits light-draft schooners to load at Palatka with cypress lumber from the large mills at that place, and a diminution in depth in the channel, requiring lightering of this material to Jacksonville, would, it is thought, raise the freight rates. "The commerce for the year amounted to 198,293 short tons, valued at $7,636,633, consisting princi- pally of crate material, fertUizer.s, fruit, grain. * Allotment. I H. D. 611, 61st, 2d. 2H.

Tampa Bay must be traversed by the water-borne com- merce bomid to and from Tampa, Port Tampa, St. Petersburg, points on Boca Ceiga Bay, Clear- water Harbor, Manatee River, and Sarasota Bay. Its commerce in reality is the combined commerce of all these points. Tampa is the general collecting and distributing canter. (See also Hillsboro Bay.) "The improvement in connection with improved tributary waterways has lowered the freight rates for many points as much as 25 per cent.

Maintenance of a good navigable chan. of great importance to large section of country extending from Columbus, Ga., to Apalachicola, Fla., 93, 1700. In 1897-98 apparently no C, West Pt. to Frank- lin, 98, 1393. Few KBs., E. C. therefore large, 03, 1264. Bates reduced, 08, 380; 10, 445. In 1911, 117,115 1., 13, 584. C. is combined "inseparably" with that of Flint, Apalachicola, and Chipola Bs. Columbus, Ga., at head of navigation, having magnificent water power, rapidly becoming one of greatest mfg. centers of South. This fact, and completion of d. w. H. proj. at mouth of above system of Es., has tendency to increase C. value of U. S. imps., 13, 1896. Effect of U. S. imp. to give reduced rates over "all-rail" rates, 13, 684. "The commerce of this stream consists of cotton, cotton seed, fertilizers, grain, naval stores, pro- visions, hardware, and general merchandise, and is so combined with that of the Flint and Apalachi- cola Elvers that a separation is impossible. It is given under the report of the Flint River as 117,115 short tons in 1911, valued at $15,784,029. "The effect of the improvement has been to give to Columbus and all other points on the river water rates, or a material reduction over rates to all-rail points, but the exact amount of reduction can not be stated." 13,584.

Details of, 13, 599; tonnage, 110,231, 13, 1907. "The commerce of this stream is important.-con- sisting prrncipallj; of cotton, cotton seed, fertilizers, grain, lumber, shingles, naval stores, staves, and a ^ge quantity of miscellaneous freight of all de- scription, the value of which for the year 1911 is reported at 110,231 short tons, valued at $8,253,948. This, however, is but a part of the freight move- ment that is affected by the improvement, for the actual shipments by water have been relatively small, and, with a river improved for continuous navigation, it is estimated that at least 100,000 tons of the present all-rail freight movement would either go by river or at river rates, -and the resulting saving would be very large. In addition, im- proved facilities would render possible an actual reduction in rates on freight now carried by river. "During the fiscal year 1909 the municipality of Montgomery established a modem wharf at Mont- gomery, which permits loading and tmloading at any stage of the river. There was one barge line established in 1910 for traffic between Mobile and Montgomery and points along the river. This barge line has since been abandoned." 13, 599. CONTBACTS. 1900. M. A.

What effect the all-year-round 6-foot navigation will have when ob- tained can not be definitely stated imtil the project is completed, but indications are that it will cause great reduction in freight rates and develop an extensive traffic between the coal fields of western Alabama and the Gulf of Mexico." 12, 616. "Commerce on this section during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1912, amounted to 149,900 short tons, principally logs, lumber, cotton, fertilizer, and gen- eral merchandise, valued at $3,930,516.31. "This project has directly resulted in aSording water and lower rail rates from Mobile to points on the river below Demopolis, Ala." 12, 619. Tombigbee B. from Demopolis, Ala., to Columbus, Miss.: "This entire section of Tombigbee Eiver is open to steamboat navigation througtiout the year, ex- cept during the period of extreme low water in the laD of the year. At present the regular packet steamers out of Mobile navigate this part of the river during the winter and spring seasons, and it is re- gorted that one steamboat Ime intends to build a ght draft steamer to operate the balance of the year. "Commerce on this section during the calendar year 1911 amounted to 46,399 short tons, valued at $503,086, being principally cotton, cotton seed, fertilizer, hardware, logs, staves, and miscellaneous. "The project results in aflfording lower rail rates from Mobile to points on the Tombigbee Eiver above Demopolis for several months each year." 12, 621. Tombigbee E. from Columbus to Walkers Br., Miss.: "The total amount expended on improvement of this section of river up to the close of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1912, was $90,120.55, of which $56,309.71 was for maintenance. "Commerce on this section during the calendar year 1911 amounted to 1,080 short tons of logs and 1,346 short tons of general merchandise, valued at $30,145. "The project has had no effect on freight rates." la, 623. liS. and ds. on Black Warrior and Tombigbee Bs., Ala.: "The total amount of commerce using the locks during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1911, was 424,949 short tons, while that for the fiscal year end- ing June 30, 1912, was 414,114 short tons, principally coal, stone, com, cotton, logs, staves, and general merchandise. In addition to this there was con- siderable traffic in logs in the pool between Locks 4 and 5, and considerable coal was handled on the pool between Looks 12 and 13." 12, 625.

U-5 (a) GALVESTON BAY TRIBUTARIES— (West Galveston Bay Channel, Turtle Bayou, Trinity River, Anahuac Chan- nel, Oyster Creek, Cedar, Chocolate, and Bastrop Bayous), Tex. (Including mouths of adjacent streams.) The following information is taken bodily from R. Chief of Engineers, 1912, p. 699: *'This project has embraced the improvement of the following localities: West Galveston Bay, the Galveston and Brazos Canal, Hanna Reef (East Bay Bayou), Double Bayou, Anahuac Channel, mouth of Trinity River, Turtle Bayou, Cedar Bayou, Clear Creek, Dickinson Bayou, Chocolate Bayou, Bastrop Bayou, Oyster Creek (q. v.). (Armual Report Chief of Engineers, 1900, p. 2438 et seq.) "Prior to March 3, 1899, the improvement of West Galveston Bay and the Galveston and Brazos Canal, Double Bayou, mouth of Trinity River, and Cedar Bayou was independent. The river and harbor act of that date made an a^ppropriation for the improvement of the Brazos River between Velasoo and Richmond, West Galveston Bay Channel, Double Bayou, and the mouths of ad- jacent streams. The mouth of Trinity River and Cedar Bayou were transferred te this work, and Anahuac Channel was added by the act of March 1 H. D. 719, 59th, 1st. s H, D. 328, 61st, 2d (map). rSeepp. 14-22 for "I Lexplanatlons, etc.J EIVER AND HAEBOB WOEKS. 737 3, 1905. Chocolate and Bastrop Bayous were added by the act of March 2, 1907, and Turtle Bayou and Oyster Greek by the act ot June 25, 1910. As adjacent streams Harma Reef (East flay Bayou)j Clear Creek, and Dickinson Bayou have been improved. Double Bayou has not been specially named in the act since 1905 and is now under improvement as an adjacent stream. "The Brazos Eiver between Velagco and Rich- mond, which was included in the improvement for a time, is now covered by a separate appro- priation. "As the West Galveston Bay Channel and Gal- veston and Brazos River Canal have been included in the 'Inland waterway on the coast ot Texas,' and appropriated for under that heading, allot- ments for these works under this appropriation have ceased. "The object of this improvement, in part, is to obtain and maintain a navigable channel depth of from 4 to 6 feet across the bars at tbe mouths of the streams and bayous from deep water in the bay to deep water in the bayous. "The improvement is Intended to develop a light-draft mland navigation which will afford cheap transportation by light-draft steamers and barges to the coast country of Texas. "The estimated cost of the modified project has been given in previous reports as 3248,6'46.34, but, as works originally embraced in this project have been transferred to other appropriations and new works have been added for which no estimate of cost have been made, there is no estimated cost for the entire project. All the channels called for have been completed, but maintenance is regularly required. " The amount expended on these improvements under present project to Jiuie 30, 1912, has been as follows (for appropriations, etc., see each work named below): Channel across Banna Reef (E.Bastrop Bayou) (q.v.) S3, 299. 67 Double Bayou (q. v.) 19, 261. 09 Anabuac Channel (q. v.) . . . 15, 556. 10 Mouth of Trinity River (see Trinity R.,Tex.dist.).... 12,726.67 Turtle Bayou (q.v.).: 8,899.97 Cedar Bayou (q. v.) 17,707. 10 Clear Creek 27,480.16 Dickinson Bayou 20, 724. 35 Bastrop Bayou 17,730.29 Chocolate Bayou 12, 143. 89 OysterCreek 6,942.24 Dredge Gen. H. M. Robert: 67, 992. 51 Dredge Capt. C. W. Howell. 15,000.00 Total 245,463.94 "Of this amount 583,646.23 was applied to main- tenance of improvement, and S116.43 has been derived from miscellaneous sources, such as sales, etc. "By authority of river and harbor act of March 3, 1899, a pipe-line hydraulic dredge was con- structed for trie improvement of these streams at a cost of 167,992.61. This dredge (Gen. H. M. Roierl) was burned April 18, 1909, and the dredg- ing has since been carried on by the dredge Capt, C. W. Bowell. The latter, however, was lost at sea September 14, 1911, and there is now no plant available for lightniraft work. "More and larger boats, especially power boats with schooner hulls, have been built to utilize the improvement. Most of the pointe reached are settlements not on railroads, and the improve- ments are of great importance to their commercial life. "The effect of these improvements has been generally to decrease freight rates to all points reached by the channels improved." 12, 699. U-7 GALVESTON BAY TO SABINE LAKE, TEX.

"It is difficult U) state what the effect of the project has been upon freight rates. The rates on foreign shipments are much less than they were 10 years ago. Cotton, the chief article of export, of which 2,979,063 bales were exported in the past year, now has an average rate to Liverpool and Hamburg of 40 cents per 100 pounds and to Bremen 42 cents. Ten years ago the rate was 45 to 55 cents. "The deep water to the wharves and consequent elimination of lighterage charges, the increased size of the vessels employed, the presence of the tramp steamer that prevents the regular lines from kee_ping up the rates, and the increased pro- duction m the Southwest have all had their effect. For the effect upon coastwise rates, attention is invited to the remarks imder that head on the 'Improvement of the Texas City Channel.' "AH the commerce for Galveston Channel, Texas City Channel, and Port Bolivar Channel comes in through this channel. In addition, the commerce lor the Houston Ship Charmel, bound in and out from the Gulf, uses this channel. The total volume of this commerce is approximately 3,793,273 short tons, valued at $427,016,385. For details of this tonnage and of the efiect of the improvement on freight rates, attention is invited to the reports on the above channels." 13, 690. CONTRACTS.^ 1871-77.

(See Projects.) B. considered that 2prs. from Fort and Bolivar Pts. would imp. the outer and, incidentally, • the iimer bar, 74, 737. Future extension of pts., aided by harrowing, probably necessary. In view of the novelty of the plan proposed, the B. recom. a trial of the plan at iimer end of Fort Pt.; if suc- cessful, then a trial in most exposed position. Gabions should have covers and bottoms, 74, 738. The auxiliary works within the B. to be delayed until practicability of plan has been demonstrated; revised est. of cost„74, 739. (Lt. Cols. Wright, Tower, and Newton and Capt. Howell.) Capt. Howell, not fully concurring, submitted that he was more confident than the other members of the B. in the adequacy of constr., and considered his est. adequate, 74, 739. Eeconvened Jan. 7, 1875, to consider Capt. Howell's report in relation to progress and con- , tinuation of work. B. considered that the results obtained by experience of 1874 not decisive, but that the full tests recom. in 1874 be carried out. A trial to be made with a single row of gabions (in connection with the method of 2 rows) in each tier, 75, 869. Eeconvened Dec. 28, 1875, to reconsider the question of imp. and modification, if any, of plan adopted, 76, 581. Eeview ot the conclusions of 1874, 76, 682. B. concluded that the 2 js. recom., 1874, would produce an important increase in the d. over outer bar, and recom. that the first part constr. be from Fort Pt. toward the main chan.; that gabions be not definitely adopted for main works until more extended test, 76, 583; that the * AUotfsd. 1 For dr. bar. > T ables showing kind and amount of st. used in js., and other Items of eipense, 93, 1866; 94, 1393; 95, 1803; 96, 1537; 97, 1799, 1800; 98, 1495-96. rSee pp. 14-22 for"] Lexplanatlons, etcj BIVEE AND HAEBOE WOEKS. 749 Chan, caused by the storm of Sept., 1874, across isld. should be closed; that the gabions be placed on mats, previously sunk, 76, 584.

PhilRdfilphia. Savannah, Ga "It is difficult to state what the effect of the project has been upon freight rates. The rate on foreign shipments ace much less now than they were 10 years ago. Cotton, the chief article of export, of which 2,736,303 bales were exported in the past year, now has an average rate to Liverpool and Hamburg of 40 cents per 100 pounds, and to Bremen 42 cents. Ten years ago the rate was 45 to 55 cents. "The deep water to the wharves and consequent elimination of lighterage charges, the increased size of the vessels employed, the presence of the tramp steamer that prevents the regular lines from keejiing up the rates, and the increased pro- duction m the Southwest have all had their efiect.

Note.— The following reference to this proj. is taken bodily from Au. R. Chief of Engineers, 13, 706: "The river and harbor act of March 2, 1907, ap- propriated $133,829, and authorized the Secretary of War to enter into contract for materials and work to the extent of $300,000, all of which has since been appropriated. "In addition, $192,000 has been appropriated for maintenance. "This project embraces the improvement of the following localities: West Galveston Bay and Brazos River Canal; channel from Aransas Pass to Pass Cavallo, including the Guadalupe River to Victoria; Turtle Cove Channel from Aransas Pass to Corpus Christi, Tex. "The river and harbor act of June 25, 1910, ap- propriated $200,000 toward the construction of the section of the waterway between Brazos River and Matagorda Bay, in accordance with the report printed in Rivers and Harbors Committee Docu- ment No. 3, Sixty-iirst Congress, second session. The estimated cost .of the entire section, 5 feet depth and 40 feet width, is $400,000. With the completion of this section the entire waterway between Galveston and Corpus Christi, a distance of 200 miles, will be opened up. "The object of the improvement is to obtain and maintain a navigable channel depth of 6 feet in a canal along che coast of Texas, utilizing the lagoons lying between the islands and the main- land. The improvement will develop a liRhl^ draft inland navigation which will afford cheap transportation by lightdraft steamers and barges to the coast country of Texas. "The amount expended under this appropria- tion to June 30, 1912, has been as follows (see each work named below for total of appropriations): West Galveston Bay and Brazos River Canal (q. V.) .■ $175,419.93 Channel between Brazos River and Matagorda Bay(q.v.) , 77,880.88 Aransas Pass to Pass Ca- vallo (q. v.) 72,697.54 Guadalupe River (q. v.).. . 182, 195. 60 Turtle Cove Channel (q . v.) 126, 723. 57 Total 636,117..52 * Allotment. <■ Entire allotment trans, to Chocolate Bayou in 1911. rSee pp. 14-22 for 1 Lexplanations, etc.J EIVER AND HAEBOR WORKS. 757 "The projected chanaels have been obtaiaed, except the river channel from Victoria to the mouth of the Guadalupe River and the channel between Brazos River and Matagorda IJay. "More and larger boats with auxiliary gas en- gines have been built to utilize tho improvement. Most ol the points to be reached are settlements which railways can not afford to develop, anA the improvements are of great importance to their commercial life. "The effect of the project on freight rates is shown by one instance— from Galveston to the plantations on the lower end of the Guadalupe. The rate by rail to the nearest point and by boat to the river landing is 63* cents per 100 poimds on gerieral merchandise; the all-water route rate is 36 cents. The combined cotton rate is $2.90 per bale and the all-water rate $1 per bale." IS, 707. APPROPRIATIONS.! 1899, $65,000,99,1970. Capt.

In 1887, the work de- signed and partly executed having partly failed to obtain the desired result at the pass, Maj. Ernst pro- posed to abandon as much of the s. j. as curved n., and by an easy change in direction to the s. to lead the j. by the shortest line to d. w., the n. j. to be placed parallel to the outer end of the s. j. To pro- tect Mustang Isld. it was proposed to riprap its slope from h. w. mark to bottom of the chan. 'The works proposed were expected to secure a chan. at least 20' a. Est. of revised proj., $2,052,543.72, 87, 1432. Congress having, in 1890, granted to the Aransas Pass Harbor Co. right to imp. navigation of the pass, further operations on the paHof the U.S. suspended, 90, 1811. 1898, the Board of 1897 of opinion that the works of the Aransas Pass Harbor Co. for the imp. of the pass were of no value to U. S. , 98, 1544; and showed that if the U. S. should take up and complete the works for the imp. of the pass the securities of the company would be practically as valuable as if the Imp. had been effected by the company, 98, 1646. Under provision act Mlar. 3, 1899, Aransas Pass Harbor Co., Mar. 27, 1899, gave up all rights, incl. J. built at pass entrance, 01, 409.

United States waterways tributary to the Gulf of Mexico include, of course, the Mississippi itself, with its tributaries. This system is so extensive, however, that it is arranged under the title of this section, namely, " Mississippi River System." Matter concerning the Mississippi itself, irrespective of its tributaries, is collected at one place, under the special designation of " HH— Mississippi River." See page 1067. The first group of tributaries, at the mouth, are so immediately connected with contiguous waterways flowing into the Gulf of Mexico that they are embraced under the designation " S— New Orleans, La., District." See page 679. The district of the Mississippi system immediately above District S is District V, and the districts which follow are lettered from W to Z, and from AA to KK, respectively. The groups are arranged in sections as follows: Lower Mississippi River System (S (see paragraph 3 above), V, W, X, Y, Z). Ohio River System (AA, BB, CC, DD, EE, FF). Missouri River System (GG). .Mississippi River (HH). Upper Mississippi River System (H, JJ, KE). MAPS.

Sept. 5, 1901, recom. that Colbert Shoals Canal be constr., to be in part submerged when there was a 7' stage over shoals. Further modification submitted Sept. 17, 1902, and entire subject re- ferred to BE., Dec. 10, 1902: plans submitted to Sec. of War and approved Feb. 17, 1903. Main differences from earlier plans, location of upper sec- tion of canal in R. bed msteau of in bank, resulting in constr. of R. wall, and location of guard look at lower end instead of upper end; cost to complete, J2,200,000, 03, 1596. Capt. Barden proposed, 1906, at Colbert Shoals: (1) to eliminate guard look: (2) to raise walls and fates of lift lock 4.5', to elevation 42 (8.5' above w.) at head of canal; (3) to raise weir crest 7' to elevation 41: (4) to shift canal trunk toward land side of canal right of way; and (5) to raise E. em- bankment to at least elevation 43, wasting the surplus excavated material on E. side of canal, where land already purchased for latter purpose; concurred in by MTaj. Newcomer, BE., and au. by Sec. of War; saving, $150,000 in total cost, 06, 1738, 1742.

CG-l(a) Plan followed in presenting data under head of "Ohio River." The Ohio flows through several States, and thereby through several engineering districts or waterway groupings. The engineering districts are those of Nashville and Chattanooga, Tenn.; Louisville, Ky.; Cinemnati, Ohio; Wheeling, W. Va.; and Pittsburgh, Pa. Almost all these o£Sces have charge of some portions of the improvement works on the Ohio. For the sake of clearness, however, and for the sake of getting together all the data about Ohio River, the data oonceming it is grouped in this work (but not in the reports of the Chief of Engineers, U. S. Army;, under the significant letter of the 1st Cincinnati (Ohio) District, i. e., "CC." The foUowine^is a list of the notable points on the river from the mouth at Cairo, HI., to the headwaters at Pittsburgh, Pa., and each point is numbered according to this order. The abstracts, or parts, already referred to are numbered on fiiis basis, and they are printed in that order.

The difference in level of water surface of the river varies; at Cincinnati , nearly midway between the head and mouth of the river, the average annual range during the past 30 years is 48.6 feet. "The project under which operations have been carried on has been a continuous and progressive one, the principal features of the work being the removal of snags, rocks, and wrecks from the general channel; the direct Improvement of bars and shoals, by dredging and rock excavation; the construction, repair, and maintenance of low dikes and dams to concentrate and direct the flow of water in improved channels; bank protection and the construction and repair of levees where required in the interest of navigation; the construction, repair, and maintenance of ice piers and harbore; miscellaneous improvement, including surveys, estabUshment of harbor lines, regulation of encroachment and deposits on the banks of the river or in its channel, and the supervision of construction of bridges across the river. The length of river through which the work extends is but little short of 1,000 miles. * * * IS, 883. Commerce — "The commerce of the river during the past year, so far as indicated by statistics that the engineer officer in charge of the river has been able to obtain, was as follows: General merchan- dise, coal, etc., 12,046,294.5 short tons, at an estimated value ol $82,074,878.77; passengers, 3,827,365." 13, 883. Locks and dams.— Prior to the project authorized 1910 various lock and dam works had been author- ized. Perhaps the earliest beginning of the system of locks and dams is covered in the instance of the Louisville and Portland Canal, at Louisville. This was a private enterprise, stock in which was acquired by the U.S. in 1826; later on complete control was obtamed, the U.S. buying the outstanding bonds. The dam at Davis Island forms a good example of the movable dam system of canalizing streams. 12, 1277. The new lock and dam system. 12, 1277.— Act of June 25, 1910, authorized the canalization of the Ohio with locks and dams, from Pittsburgh to the mouth, 54 in all, to gain navigable depth of 9 feet, in ac- cordance withH.D. 492, 60th Cong., 1st sess.,orsuch modification thereof as, in the discretion of the Secretary of War, may be advisable, the work to be completed in 12 years. Prior to the adoption of this project Congress had provided for the completion of at least 12 locks and dams. H. D. 492 referred to estimates $63,731,488 in addition to appropriations already made. At 1912, 26 of these works had been completed, or begun, leav- ing 28 to be begun under future appropriations. Out of the lump appropriations made for the system, a special Board of Engineers maikes allotments for specificparts of the work. The following is a table of such allotments up to 1912: Dam No. River and harbor act of June 25, 1910. River and harbor act of Feb. 27, 1911. Sundry civil act of Mar. 4, 1911.

Note.— It is impracticable to attempt to reconcile tlie diflerent reports of appropriations and allotments; this is particularly true of the earUer reports. The clearest view of Ohio Eiver funds is had, perhaps, by taking the appropriations listed rn the reports of 1912, and adding to them additional Items listed in H.

Merrill, 1879, slack-water navigation for draft of 6' on Kentucky E., mouth to Three Forks, 258 m., repairing old looks and dams, and constr. 12 new locks and dams; est., $1,074,402, 79, 1399; 80, 1826. In 1883, after total app. of 1560,000, Capt. Post revised est. and concluded that $2,471,639.26 would be required to complete proj., 83, 1562. Plan and location of Lock and Dam No. 6, as proposed by Mai. Post, approved by BE. of 1887, 87, 1880. The BE. of 1887 considered the chutes at the Beattyville movable dam did not meet re- quirements of navigation, and that the st. lock and dam orig. contemplated should be substituted, 87, 1881, 1884. By Maj. Lockwood, 1893-94, building Lock No. 7 a short distance below High Bridge, 94, 1080. In 1893, Maj. Lockwood est. that by increasing the lift of the locks above No. 6 navigation could be extended to Three Forks, with 9 additional dams and looks; est., $2,740,782.30. Est., Lock No. 7, in course of constr., $300,000, 96, 2287; 98, 2013. In 1894 the Chief of Engineers sanctioned use of St. cut for the Beattyville Dam to constr. Look No. 7, 96, 2287. In 1898, Capt. Warren believed that by increasing the lift of the remaining locks to be built to 18' only 7 more would be required, to cost $4,865,550, as against $5,179,200 for locks, etc., with 15' lift. Chief of Engineers approved, 1898, the plans, etc., for Lock No. 8, providing for a lift of 18', 98, 2015. Capt. Hodges est., 1899, it would cost $2,560,000 in excess of the sums app. to complete proj., 99, 438. Capt. Hodges, 1899-1900, reported cost of the complete imp. would exceed, by a large sum, the limit of au. for continuing contracts, and that this limit would probably be reached while the last 4 locks and dams would be untouched or incomplete, 00, 501. Orig. working proj., at 1912, covers, with modifi- cations, repair and rebuilding of 5 locks and dams, and the constr. of 9 addl. locks and dams; est., $4,865,550, 13, 925. StJEVETS. By E. H.

Con- clusions: Entirely practicable to coimeot said Es. by water navigation 7' d., involving the enlarge- ment of existing canal on James E. and its exten- sion to the Greenbrier E., together with the constr. of summit tunnel, and water supply for summit level, and the extension of water communication from Greenbrier E. to the mouth of the Great Kanawha E., 74, ii, 89, 94, 115, 121, 129; 77, 677. Concerning the plan, minor differences of opinion exist as to dimensions and arrangement oi locks on that portion which shall be canal, i. e., from Bichmond to Greenbrier E., majority favoring Increased lock dimensions both on canal and slack- water imp.; suggest further ex. for location of ' tunnel, 74, ii, 90, 93, 111, 117, 129; 75, ii, 630, 632; 77, 675.

PRIVATE (CORPORATE) WOBK. 1785. A company was organized for imp. of James B., which, in 1832, transferred all its rights and franchises to the James & Kanawlia Eiver Canal Co., who, in 1836, began the constr. of the James Eiver & Kanawha Canal, the proposed route of which was as follows: From Eichmond up valleys of James and Jackson Es^to Covington; thence via Dunlaps Creek and Fork Eun to sunmiit level; thence by tuimel2. 6m.; thence via valleys of Howard Creek, Greenbrier, New, and Kanawha Es. to the Ohio; total distance, 486 m. In 1872 the portion from Eichmond to Buchanan had been completed, of which 159.7 m. was canal and 36.7 m. slack water; canal dimensions, 5' x 50'; locks, 5' X 15' X 100' 71, 625, 635, 650, 651. 1868.

The Kansas City-Missouri Elver Navigation Co. had been organized, 1912, with capital of about $1,200,000. The first boats of the company were run 1911. Extensive terminal facilities had been constr. at Kansas City, with probably the most complete inland river transfer wharf in the U. S. Related terminals were being estab. at other points. The effect of this revival of traffic not apparent at 1912, but as the boat rates were one-third less than EE. rates, the latter expected to decline. 13, 839. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS. The Mo. E. formed by the Junction of the Jeffer- son, Madison, and Gallatin Es. in sw. Montana, flows se. to entranceinto Miss. E. in e. part of Mo., about 18 m. above St. Louis. From Three Forks to mouth is 2,551 m. From Fort Benton to Great Falls, 49 m., there are dams and rapids, the aggregate fall being 695'. Some portions above Great Falls are navigable also, but not continuously because of several power dams. There has been navigation on the E. since 1819. The elevations above sea level are: Three Forts, 3,045'; Ft. Benton, 2,671'; Sioux City, 1,085'; Kan- sas City, 723'; and mouth of Mo. E., 386'. The general condition of the B. is one of alternate pools and bars. The l.-w. d. over bars is 3' gen- erally, and w. thereat from one-third to 1 m.; in the d. reaches the w. from 800' to 1,500', and the l.-w. d. in such places is often over 12'. Snagging . operations since work of imp. has lessened what was once a great hindrance to navigation. 12, 839. PROJECTS. The U. S. began removal of snags as early as 1838, with funds usually app. for several Es. jointly, 1. e., for the Ohio, Mississippi, Missouri, and some- times the Arkansas, 03, 406. Up to 1884, the work ol imp. was conducted on the separate-district plan-. From 1884 to 1890 the work on the entire E. was under the Missouri E. Commission. Alter 1890, however, the portion from Sioux City, Iowa, upward and inclusive, was a separate district until 1902. At 1902 no proj. lor the imp. of the E. as a whole had been adopted. Whatever work was done was of a more or less local or detached character. 03, 406. On the upper portion of the E. the work orifftaally consisted, mamly, in iinp. the shoaJs and rapids on the so-called "Eocky Elver," from Ft. Benton downstream for 160 m. In "more recent times" the work has been limited largely to chan. regula- tion and bank j)rotection. Two ice Hs. were constr. Some minor work has been done above Ft. Benton. 03, 406. Capt. Chittenden, 1903, recom. that the arbitrary division of the E. into 2 districts, with the dividing point at Sioux City, should be abolished, and that the E. should be treated as a whole; also, that the app. should be in a lump sum, providing elasticity to cover emergencies constantly arising from the unstable character of the E., 03, 1553. The commission was constituted by act July 6, 1884, and abolished by act June 13, 1902; thereupon the entire it. was consolidated into one district, 03, 406. The effort of the commission was to accomplish a continuous, progressive control of the E., con- tracting it where necessary, giving the Chan, proper direction, and securely holding it in place. Imp., on this plan, was carried out in the vlcuilty of Kansas City, and on the first reach of the E., ex- tending from near Jefferson City to the mouth. On 45 m. of this reach a continuous chan. of not less than 6' was obtained, and this location was originally one of the worst parts. In addition, new land was formed, and much land protected from damage by the E. The greater part of the funds app. for expend, under the commission was not applicable to the comprehensive plans of the commission, the acts of app. diverting specific amounts for specific localities. 03, 406. The following work was being done at period of transfer: 1902-03. Lower R.: Mainly mainten. and re- pairs. Revet, repair at St. Joseph; dikes re- screened at Nebraska City, protection of Chamois bankhead, and work was in progress at Little Blue when suspended by floods. Snagging. Property accumulated during 19 years of the Missouri Com- mission transferred. Eecords sent to Sioux City; some of the boatyard plant at Gasconade auctioned. Upper E.: Snag^ng; repair work at Pierre, S. Dak., and Sioux City, Iowa; revet, constr. at Elk Pt., S. Dak., and revet, extension above Combina- tion Br., Sioux City; repair and extension of dikes at Yankton; 03, 1552. A complete sur. of the E. had been made, and a fleet of snag boats had been kept in steady opera- tion, directly benefiting navigation, 03, 406. Orig. proj. adopted 1890 au. obstr. removal, and temporary imp. ol worst shoals; est. , $50,000 an. Work was begun 1891. Act of 1902 consolidated app. for snagging with that for general imp. ol E., 03, 407. For condensed description ol works executed under the Mo. E. Commission, see Supplement to An. Es., 1902. For condensed description ol works above Great Falls, see 99, 385-386, and later An. Es. — between Ft. Benton and Sioux City, 03, 382-385, 13, 837. At 1912, the projs. were as follows: Mouth to Kansas City: Act July 25, 1912, 392 m.; act July 25, 1912, au. efforts to gain a permanent 6' chan., by means of regulating works, contracting the chan. with revet, and dikes, together with the removal of snags; est., $20,000,000; time of comple- tion, est. at 10 years; 12, 839. Kansas City to Ft. Benton (1894 m.): At 1912 there was no appro v. proj. for the section from Kansas City to Sioux City. Act July 25, 1912, app. $76,000 for imp. and mainten. for Kansas City to Sioux City, and $150,000 lor imp. and mainten. Sioux City to Ft. Benton. The work thus au. is regulation and control of the E., incL snagging and r. removal, mamten., and augmenta- tion of urgent work near cities and important landings. Est. for this work, indefinite.

The results obtained by the commission, up to 1897, showed beyond question the practicability of controlling the K., holding its banks to give ample Chan, for navigation; but the cost, the imcertainty of the permanency of the work, and the slowness of progress, discouraging to Congress. Congress yielding at "this" time to demands for applica- tions of considerable portions of the reduced app. to isolated places where the only objects to be attained would be the protection of local, unim- portant, and often private interests, 97, 3847; 99, 3666.

Impossibility of carrying on work with any degree of efficiency under the system of app. in practice, 00, 4947. Completion of the plans of the commission in the first reach, opening the R. from its mouth to Jeffer- son City, would fully demonstrate the advisability or inadvisabihty of continuing the works of imp. in the upper parts of the district of the commission, 00, 4947.

Chittenden reported that the total extent of a reservoir system in the arid regions which would render available the entire flow of the streams would not exceed 1,161,600,000,000 c. f.; that if the constr. of such a system were to consume a century in time, it would represent an an. storage of about 11,600,000,000 c. f., or 266,300 acre-f. At $5.37 per acre f. this would cost $1,430,031 per annum. This amount, distributed among the 17 States and Ter- ritories of the arid section, would give an average an. expend, in each of $84,119. The an. value of the stored water would return the orig. cost and mainten. in an average period of 3 years. 98, 2878. SURVEYS.

HH.— MISSISSIPPI RIVER. INDEX TO REPORTS. CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, UNITED STATES ARMY, 1866-1912. 1067 1068 INDEX TO KEPOKTS, CHIEF OF ENGINEEES, U. S. ARMY, 1866-1912. HH.— MISSISSIPPI RIVER. Part (a), HH-1 Plan of Presenting Data. The works of improvement on the Mississippi Eiver cover so many diverse points and stretches, in various engineering districts, and so many periods embraced in almost one hundred years, that, for the sake o£ affording a clear, connected, and comprehensive outline of the reports rendered by many engi- neers concerning the waterway system, all such reports are here brought together into one special group known as Group HH. This lettering corresponds to U. S. waterway groups in the vicinity of St. Louis, Ko., and this selection of grouping has been made in preference to a lettering corresponding to the mouths of the river, for the reason that St. Louis may be considered more or less central to the Mississippi system. A list of the notable points on the river, both banks, is printed on p. 1097, running from the mouth toward the headwaters, and each of these points has received a number accordingly. The abstracts of data cover either points or stretches. An abstract concerning a point is, of course, given the number of that point in the list. An abstract concerning a stretch is given the number pertaining to the first point on the stretch (proceeding upstream) . A special finding list to all the points or locations and stretches named under HH is provided on p. 1071, and in addition, of course, these points are listed in the general finding list at the back of this index. A special or general summary of data concerning the river is printed on p. 1081.

HH-1.— MISSISSIPPI RIVER. Part (d) General Data. APPROPRIATIONS. See special table of appropriations, p. 1089, COMMERCE. The general effect of improvement ot the river has been to aid commerce. At 1912 there was a marked increase in the tonnage reported for New Orleans (q. v.); at Vickstaurg and Yazoo R. freight rates had been reduced markedly, in some cases as much as over 66%, the rates to inland points hav- ing no water competition indicating these savings also. The effect of the reservoir system on rates has been considerable. Without the reservoirs considerable steamboating would be impracticable. Also, railroad freight from St. Paul to St. Louis, 600 m., is only 5% higher than the rate from St. Paul to Chicago, 400 m.; in addition, steamboat freight rates to river points below St. Paul are in general about one-thini lower than those of the railroads. Some portion of this reduction is di- rectly attributable to the reservoir system. In portions of the headwater course there are no rail- roads, so that the adjacent communities are de- pendent upon the river for traffic movement. It is not claimed that river improvements are solely responsible for the lower rates on traffic, but there is clear evidence that if the waterway formed by the river did not exist the rail rates would be markedly higher. Many large and important tributaries of the Mississippi R. are dependent on the latter for an outlet for considerable of their commercial trafBcs. The works of improvement pertaining to levees and embankments have a large beneficial effect in developing and protecting a vast number of square miles of territory; without such works and their maintenance there would be a tremendous increase in the damage coming annually from floods. See each abstract listed on p. 1069. CONTRACTS. See each abstract listed on p. 1069. A considerable portion of the work on the river is done by the district offices with their own men and plant. At times, however, contracts are entered into for material and equipment. DOCUMENTS. See each abstract listed on p. 1069. For important special reports see Surveys and also Engineers. Almost every important piece of river and harbor work on the Mississippi R. is reported on in the annual reports of the Chief of Engineers. Data contained in congressional re- ports, if not printed in the annual reports referred to, are mentioned in them. ENGINEERS. (Offices. War Department, Washington, D. C.

See each abstract on p. 1069. The mouth has several outlets or passes. Prior to improvement these were obstructed by bars, allowing of depths of only 9' or so at mean low Gulf level. The widths varied. The width of South Pass, 1912, was 630' to 850'; of Southwest Pass, 1,200' to 2,400'. Above the Passes the river has a well-known character. It is susceptible to floods, which injure its natural and artificial banks orlevees, permitting the flooding at times of the surrotmding areas for miles. The channel is tortuous. There are many bends, and sometimes the chaimel cuts across these. Prior to the work of snagging and wreck removal operations, the river was seriously ob- structed by numerous snags, logs, etc., and wrecked boats, of all kinds, menacing life and property. There are many islands and bars, helping to form chutes, sloughs, and secondary channels. The river is navigable for steamboats in one stretch from its mouth to St. Paul, 1,940 m. This portion of the waterway, added to that above St. Paul, to the head or source in Lake Itasca, Uinn., makes a total mileage of 2,440 m. Various locks and dams have been constructed, notably at Des Moines Kapids, Bock Island Rap- ids, between St. Paul and Minneapolis, and at the headwater lakes, the latter for governing reservoir supply for the river. A reservoir system, already mentioned, is in process of evolution, for the purpose of improving the navigable depths of the river, principally above Lake Pepin. In 1880 this called for the construc- tion of 41 reservoirs in Winconsin and Minnesota. Through the dams already built commerce has been aided in low-water seasons and floods miti- gated, this set of benefits being felt more directly on the stretches from St. Paul downward. Changes in river bed; A great flood in the Missis- sippi River always brings out a variety of opinions as to the causes of the floods and suggestions as to how the disasters that attend them may be avoided. The cause of the floods is frequently attributed to the elevation of the river bed due to the construc- tion of levees. The Mississippi River Commission has established the fact that there has been no progressive elevation of the bed of the river. 13, 3717. Outlets; The following is taken from 18, 3717: "A popular solution of the flood problem is the 'outlet' plan. To any other system (than levees) for the protection of these alluvial lands there are objections, both theoretical and practical, which can not be overcome. Those of a theoretical char- acter are connected with the hydraulic law that a reduction of flood discharge in a silt-formed channel will reduce its capacity below the point of outlet. This observation has been repeated in the many local comparative surveys of the river bed made by the commission before and after crevasses, or before and after rebuilding the levee made necessary by a crevasse. The difficulties of a practical nature consist of the necessity of continuing any outlet to the Gulf without return to the river at any intermediate point. Such return would merely transfer the danger from one locality to another lower down. The condition thus imposed upon any outlet involves great cost and danger. Any outlet intended to relieve the parts of the river where flood heights are now most dangerous would, in any case, be very long. To have an appreciable effect it would require an excavated channel of large width and depth. As it would traverse tracts of cultivated and valuable land, the cost of expropriation of a right of way would be very great. The cost of the levees which would be re- quired to control it and prevent the permanent continuation of disaster and overflow while flow- ing through regions which will in a few years be placed under the sufficient protection of a levee system would be very much greater. "When completed, there would be two or more rivers, each presenting the same dangers and requiring the same treatment as the present single channel. The cost of efficient outlets would be greater than the cost of completion of the levee system. When constructed they would either silt up, as do many island chutes, or would enlarge and assume the tortuous type of an alluvial stream with shifting bars and caving banks. Finally, conceived and executed in defiance of physical law, they would fail as a safe, cheap, or efficient method of abating overflow. 1086 INDEX TO KEPOKTS, CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, TJ. S. AEMY, 1866-1912. "After a review of the progress thus far made in the improvement of a levee system and of the facts developed by the continued surveys, gagings, and ohservations of the river, such as the entire absence of evidence of any rise of the bed of the river, the local tendency to shoal where Volume is reduced, and the larger discharge now controlled between levees, with an increase of flood heights which does not affect the practicability of a levee system, the commission 1 expresses its continued confidence in the reclamation from overflow of the alluvial lands of the lower Mississippi Valley on the lines now proposed and in progress, as entirely practicable, at a cost which is amply justified by the importance of the undertaking. " The experiences of late years do not justify any material departure from the views thus expressed. " It is evident that an outlet to be effective must be such as to carry the outflow to the Gulf and not return the water to the main stream at some point lower down. The highest point that will satisfy this condition is the mouth of Bed River, 765 miles below Cairo, and an outlet at that point would give no relief to the many miles above it. The damage by the flood wave would be done before the point of relief could be reached. " Waste weirs have been suggested for the Missis- sippi below Red River to carry off a volume of the flood equal in depth to the height of the levees, with sufficient width to deliver a large percentage of the overbank flow. There is no available site for such a structure above Bonnet Carre. This is so far down toward the end of the delta that a comparatively small area would be benefited there- by, and the general objections to outlets cited in the commission! report quoted are largely appli- cable here as well."

At Southwest Pass, the project is for depth of 35', m. 1. w., and width of 1,000', leading to the lower part of the river. The lower part of the river, from Head of Passes to above Cairo, is under the special care of the Missis- sippi River Commission. The orig. project of the commission, Feb. 17, 1380, contemplated gaining and holding a 10' chan. at extreme low Water. After studies and experiments of years the proj. was modified to seek temporary imp. of the low-water Chan, embracing not less than 9' depth and a navi- gable chan. 250' w. At 1912, the following was esteemed the work of the commission: 1. Continuation of surveys; preparation and pub- lication of maps; maintenance of gauges; the re- cording, tabulation, and publication of gauge read- ings; the taking and recording of discharge meas- urements at high and low stages of the Mississippi River and its tributaries; examinations and inves- tigations relative to proposed separation of the waters of Red and Atchafalaya Rivers from those of the Mississippi; and other observations. 2. The building, extension, and repair of levees. 3. The building, maintenance, and operation of- dredge boats. 4. The repair and extension of existing works for the improvement of the channel, the preserva- tion of harbors, the prevention of cut-offs, and the security of levees. 5. The maintenance of a low-water channel be- tween the Mississippi, Red, and Atchafalaya Rivers. 6. Other miscellaneous details incident to the execution of the general project. Levees: The following is taken from 13, 3718: "For convenience in administration and the allot- ment of fimds for levee piKposes, the river front has been divided by the commission' into levee districts. The names and locations of these dis- tricts, as now established by the commission, are as follows: "1. The district on the right bank from the vicinity of Cape Girardeau, Mo., 54.5 miles above Cairo, to New Madrid, Mo. (71),* called the upper St. Francis levee district. "2. The district on the left bank from Hickman, Ky. (36), to Slough Landing, Term., (60), called Reelfoot levee district. "3. The district on the right bank extending from the vicinity of New Madrid, Mo.

"In addition to the levee districts given in the foregoing table, there is the Homochitto levee dis- trict, established by the commission in 1894, ex- tending on the left bank from mouth of the Yazoo River to Baton Rouge. Surveys were made of portions of this district in 1895 and in 1910, but no levee work has ever been done in it by the com- mission. " Under the joint resolution of Congress approved April 30, 1912, the commission contemplates closing crevasses in such levees as exist in this district. "The commission established a provisional grade, based on previous high-water records, to which the levees should be built. The ultimate grade neces- sary to safely pass the maximum flood can only be reached by observing the effect of successive floods, as the levee system becomes more and more effec- tive in flood control. The provisional-grade line has always been well above the flood line and also well in advance of the levee heights possible with the funds placed at the disposal of the commission. The flood of 1912 gives new data for fixing a standard high water and determining a higher provisional- grade line. ***** "The development of the levee system has been carried on by both the Government and the several levee boards as rapidly as avaUable funds would permit, but the top of the levee is still below the provisional grade for 586 miles of its length and thelevee is deficient in the cross section contem- plated for a large part of the entire line. 1088 INDEX TO EEPOETS, CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, XT.

Ohio R. upward; In the section immediately above the mouth of the Ohio the effort is to gain and hold 8' d. below St. Louis, and 6' above that point, by confining the flow of the river to a single Chan, about 2,500' w. at bankful stage, by closing sloughs and secondary channels, and by building out new banks where the natural w. is excessive. As mentioned under Physical Characteristics, a reservoir system is in progress of construction for collecting surplus water at various seasons, to be released systematically during low water. Above Minneapolis the channel is obstructed at places by power dams, but at suitable stretches there is an effort to gain and hold a navigable depth of about 4'. There is systematic removal of wrecks, snags, and other obstructions. SURVEYS. See each abstract listed on p. 1069. See also the work of the Mississippi River Com- mission, above, in Projects. MAPS.

No gaugings were made until the fall of 1899. Since then gaugings have been made as frequently as the fimds available would permit and the con- ditions justified the expenditure, 13, 830.

Jones est. $110,000 to constr. reser- voir at Gull Lake, 95, 2178. Sundry civil act of June. 4, 1897, app. $15,000 for land damages, etc., ensuing from constr. of reservoir and dam, 97, 2139. Lt. Col. Jones, in 1897, est. $85,000 for reservoir with capacity of 2,712,000,000 c. f., by constr. of ditches coimecting Gull; Round, and Long Lakes, and a timber dam at outlet of Gull Lake, incl. land damages, 97, 2139. In 1898 Maj. Abbot reported proj. of damming Crow Wing R. and storing its flow in the proposed Gull Lake Reservoir chimerical; the expense apparently would be out of proportion to the benefits to be secured, 98, 1814. Reservoir sites, comparative cost of, in U. S. and India. Cost of system at Mississippi headwaters had been $8.78 in_ 1897 per 1,000,000 o. f. storage capacity, which included mainten. and repairs up to June 30, 1896, 97, 2138. In 1896-97 Lt. Col. Jones recom. sur. for sub- sidiary basin at Deer and Bass Lakes, and drg. in Pokegama Reservoir, the latter not being able to carry its own watershed in addition to what came in by leakage and other ways from the reservoirs above it, 97, 2139. In 1897 a recent ex. showed dikes were required to prevent escape of water from Pine R. Reservoir; est., cost of dike, $10,000, 97, 2140. After ex., 1896-97, Lt. Col. Jones recom. sur. in upper Crow Wing Basin for reservoir, 97, 2140. In 1898 Maj. Abbot believed Leech Lake and Winnibigoshish Reservoirs could not be safely filled until sur. and proper repairs had been made; that increase of land values at headwaters of the Mississippi made it a question of completing and making permanent the works already on hand, and of locating and paying for large areas which there was reason to believe had been submerged without compensation, Indian lands, among others, being involved, and that careful measurements before and after opening of reservoirs at the l.-w. season would give all the data really valuable in connection with hydrological observations, 98, 1812, 1814. Act Mar. 3, 1899, provided funds for conversion , of lieech Lake Dam into a concrete and steel structure, 99, 2183; 00, 2789.

Gillmore, Warren, Craighill, and Weitzel, and Capt. Howell. Col. Barnard not fully concurring, submitted minority report.) Minority report considered that, assuming canal to be built, a more comprehensive study required to fix location and details of cost; before resorting to canal, the superior advantages of natural mouths, and probability of utilizing them, should be con- sidered, 74, 826, Radical change in location de- sirable,' 74, 829. Stability of lock foundations insufficient, 74, 830. Engineering difficulties un- derrated, 74, 831. Communication of Lt. Col. Newton reviewing minority report, 74, 868. Report of same board on imp. of Passes as an alternative to or in connection with the canal. Pass a Loutre assumed to be imp.; d. of 25' re- quired; jetties 2,200' apart and each 24,000' 1., 74, 833. Closure of north mouth of Pass necessary; delicate and difficult work of; general development of delta sufficient to destroy the most skififully designed works, 74, 834. Ultimate filling of area ahead of jetties; difficulties of imp. by jetties; relative advantages of a Loutre and Southwest Passes, 74, 836. Means used and results obtained in imp. Vistula and Danube, 74, 837, constitute no precedent in imp. of mouth of Mississippi, 74, 838. Stirring can not be relied upon beyond 18'; can not be made a substitute for proper proj.; shoxild be continued until proper proj. is com- pleted, 74, 839.

Closing of North Pass of a Loutre not desirable; constr. of jetties not as expensive as indicated by majority report, 74, 851. South Pass should be selected for trial of jetties; action of jetties would retard bar advance; cost of jetties a fraction of cost of canal, 74, 852. Inesti- mable value of open R. mouth navigation as op- posed to canal, 74, 853. Miaority report of Maj.

Suter, 1875, gradual l.-w. imp. of Missis- sippi, Cairo to Gulf, by contraction at wide, shallow places, by means of transverse dikes and closure of side Chans., and by training walls, dikes to be composed of brush and St., dr. to he resorted to in hastening or assuring the formation of chans. at sites selected, 75, ii, 512.. An increase of l.-w. d. from 4i' to 6', all that should be attempted, 76, ii, 496, 519, 520. General considerations affecting the imp., 76, ii, 496; 78, 842. By Capt. Benyaurd, 1877, to protect water front of Memphis by shore protection for 7,600 1. f.; est., S170,000, 77, 78, 492; 78, 637; 79, 979. Increased: 1882, to $204,211, 83, 1498. By BE., 1878, to imp. R. below Cairo to l.-w. d. of 10', by contraction at wide, shallow places to about 3,600', and by protection of caving banks, 79, 1008, 1011, 1013, 1014; constr. to be determined by experience derived from the imp. of one of the worst places, 79, 1013. By BE., 1878, to protect water front of New Or- leans by shore protection of pile and brush revet, aided by brush mats placed on shore slopes; est., $476,000, 78, 614, 616; 79, 875; 80, 1161; 88, 1362. At Natchez and Vldalia, proj. of 1880 proposed protection of banks at Marengo and Giles Bends to prevent R. from cutting through into Concordia " Bend; est., $939,600, 80, 1333, 1353. At mouth of Red B., the BE. of 1880 recom. con- tinuation of dr. as a means of temporary imp., 80f 1288. The BE. of 1881 recom. that previously adopted plan of imp. be discontinued, 88, 1365; that at CarroUton Bend the necessity for bank protecticn was alone presented, and that protection should consist of brush mattress of the greatest practical 1. and of most substantial constr., 83, 1366-1368. Proj. recom. by M. B. C. contemplated imp. of B. below Cairo by contraction of waterway at all shoal points to comparatively uniform w., and the projection of banks from caving. Reported that necessary contraction of the waterway could be best accomplished with permeable dikes, by which new shore lines would be estab. and closing of chutes. By mattress revet, the new shore lines formed by the dikes were to be held, and wherever caving banks occurred to be protected against eroding by mattress revet, or some equivalent de- vice, 81, 2733; 83, 2748, 2761; 83, 2120; 86, 2866. Commission recom. initial work of imp. should be upon the 200 m. of B. immediately below Cairo, 81,'2736; 85, 2866. In relation to levees, reported by majority of commission that while levees in themselves were not necessary as a means of securing ultimately navigable chans., nevertheless, they believed that, besides giving protection to lite and property against overflow, safety and ease to navigation, and facilities to G. by estab. landing places above the reach of floods, the repair and mainten. of ex- isting extensive luies of levees would hasten the work of Chan. imp. through the increased scour they would produce during high-river stages, 81, 2732; 83, 2754; 83, 2363, 2373; 83, 2662, 2865. General: In 1891 Commission took upthestudyof the most suitable means to temporarily relieve C. on the B. pending the extension of the works for permanently imp. chan. Conclusions reached that hydraulic drs. of large capacity gave the greatest promise of success, 93, 3557; 94, 2716; 99, 3299. Mattress modified in constr. to secin:e more flexi- bility and greater density. Extra cost justified by results, 93, 3557. Congress, 1894, asked for an opinion as to the desirability of separating the Mississippi and Bed Bs. Description of work done up to this time by the comniission. Commission of opinion that the separation through Old B. would estab. more fav. conditions for navigation, of both streams, and for protecting from overflow the region along the banks. These objects could also be accomplished by this means more surely than by any other plan. Minority report favoring keeping Old B. open until Plaquemine Bayou Canal would be com- pleted, and until other misc. work was done. 96, 1160 iN-DEx 10 bepOets, Chief of engineers, u. s. army, 1866-l'jii. Suggestions by Lt. Col. Stiokney lor relief of lower Louisiana from excessive flood heights, 95, 3649. Considered settled, 1896, that in the plan for the permanent imp. of the'chan. by contraction of its l.-W. width, the work of bank protection should precede permeable dikes and other structures of that class, and that the latter may be regarded as supple, in function and necessary only in a minority ofcases, 96, 3419. Conclusions of commission, 1896, that it was not possible with the work employed up to that time to accomplish satisfactory permanent imp. of the R., Cairo to the Passes, as was necessary to meet the urgent demands of C, within any reasonable time. Dr. looked on as giving greater promise of success, 96, 3422. Commission est., 1896, complete revet, work, Cairo to Vicksburg, would cost $63,000,000, requir- ing 40 years to build, and that there would be an an. cost for mainten. of not less than 10% of the orig. expend., 96, 3423.

Description of locality, 00, 2675. PBOJECTS. Congress, by sundry^jivil act Jime 4, 1897, on information not obtained from the Engineer Dept., provided money to prevent the Mississippi from breaking into Cache R., near Cairo. Maj. Hand- bury submitted a proj. for revetting the bank from a point a short distance above the nearest point to Beechridge Station, as far as the funds would permit, after building a short hurdle to protect the revet., 97, 2047; 98, 1732. Capt. Burr beUeved, 1899: (1) There was no im- mediate danger of the Mississippi R. breaking through into Cache R. at or near Beechridge, m., but there was danger of the partial or complete destruction of iihe incomplete work already begun for the prevention of caving of the' bank at that place. (2) It would be desirable to make specific app. to protect the banks of the Mississippi R. at Beechridge, HI. (3) It might cost $216,000 to mdke the desired imp., 00, 2676, 2677. SURVEYS.

Considered by Col. Wilson'as requiring too much time for completion, too expensive, and inade- quate, 67, 264, 280, 324, 335. Lt. Col. J. H. Wilson (35th Infantry), 1867, for lateral canal 300' w., 6' d. on Iowa side, Keokuk to • Nashville (7.6 m.), with 2 lifts and 1 guard lock; embankments 20' w. at top, carried 4' above h. w., and protected inside and out with riprap, the canal connecting with a through cut along natural chan. of upper chain, the through cut to be 5' (or 6') x 200' d., 67, 36, 264, 281, 282, 335. Modified by BE. May 13, 1867, viz, embankment to be reduced to 10' w. at top, to be carried 2' above h. w., canal to be re- duced in excavation to w. of 250', the riprap on canal side of the embankment to be carried to 12' above canal bottom, the canal to have a minimum d. of 5' and a maximum of 8', lock chambers to remain as fixed by Lt. Col. Wilson (80' x 360'), reverse gates at outlet imnecessary; the through cut along natural Chan, of upper chain to be further investigated by engineer in charge; details not fixed on to be left to be arranged by engineer in charge, subject to approv. of dept., 67, 36, 265, 307, 350.

In 1880 it was proposed to raise side walls of middle lock and build 2 guiding cribs at guard lock, 80, 1662; 84, 1577. In 1884, proposed to place 2 sluices opposite largest creek to prevent silt being carried into canal, 84, 1677; 86, 1467. In 1882 Maj. Mackenzie proposed constr. of dry dock in connection with canal 100' x 400', and located on R. side of canal above middle lock; est., $126,000, 83, 1422, 1423. From 1856 to 1886, $4,617,960 had been app. for constr. of canal and chan. through rapids, $360,500 for mainten. and operation of canal, and $108,750 for constr. of dry dock, leaving amount required to complete canal proj. $101,746, and dry dock, $16,250, 86, 1467, 1469, 1478. In 1889 Maj . Mackenzie proposed raising lock walls of lower lock, constr. of an office building at lower lock, r. excavation above guard lock, sluice constr,, and protection of outside slope of canal embank- ment; est., $47,194, 89, 1768. Proj. completed in 1892, 93, 1772. Maj. Townsend reported, 1902, that 1. and d. at foot of Des Moines Rapids, such as was proposed to be built by private interests would probably imp. navigation over the canal and locks, also that there seemed to be no necessity, present or prospective, of increasing size of locks; cost of such enlargement about $1,000,000, 03, 1500.

I. I. and obtains from early in Nov. to early in Apr., 03, 457; 03, 498; 04, 544; 06, 553; 06, 613; 07, 640; 08, 687; 09, 723; 10, 801; 11, 856; 13, 1025. Mean level for 1911 was about 1.4' lower than average for past 51 years and is lower than any year since 1897, drop in levels during 1909, 1910 having been 0.87, and during 1911, 0.35'; still ialling rapidly. Equal drop per year for 1 or 2 more years will cause serious trouble in aU lake Hs. from Superior to Ontario, incl., 11, 866. Proj. depths in an. Rs. are actual depths of water in the various Hs. on e. shore of lake unless otherwise stated, 13, 1025. 00-2 ST. JOSEPH HARBOR AND RIVER, MICH. Part. Title, Period. Appropria- tions. St. Joseph H.

In 1896 a BE. considered that for the safety of vessels entering the H., as well as for the conven- ience of vessels and the transaction of business In the inner H. during storms, the proj. for constr. an e. break'r was a worthy one, but the board did not be- lieve that any increase in C. had taken place at the H. during the past few years; on the contrary, that a decrease bad occurred, there having been a falling off of about one-half, approx., 97, 3281.

The works of iniprovemeiit on tlie Columbia are in charge of three separate offices. (See W, WW, XX.) Because of this, and of the varying limits specifed by many acts of Congress over a considerable period of time, it is believed to be better to collect data concerning this waterway under one head, as herein.

Estab. that Chan, would be seriously impaired by every freshet, as dr. chan. acts as a catch basin of vast quantities of material eroded and carried down by rapid currents, 13, 1247. Owmg to severe floods Nov., 1906, White E. was turned bodily into Puyallup E., and the latter E. had to carry double the former normal flow, and as both Es. are heavy silt carriers, the effect of this change was highly detrimental to work in Puyallup Waterway, 13, 1247.
