FALL RIVER, MASS. 
 
 Fall River, Mass : 
 
 Its Location^ Water Powei\ and 
 Growth in Cotton Manufacture. 
 
 ALL RIVER, the largest Cotton Manu- 
 facturing centre of America, is a city 
 I and port of entry of Bristol County, 
 Massachusetts. The ciiy is compactly built, 
 and rises somewhat abruptly from the eastern 
 shore of Mount Hope Bay, an arm of Narra- 
 gansett Bay. 
 
 The remarkable water power and the spa- 
 cious harbor of Fall River, are such in their 
 conjunction as few cities on all the seaboard 
 enjoy, and have been prime factors in the in- 
 dustrial history of the place. The water power 
 is derived from a small stream— Fall River — 
 whence the name of the city, which has its 
 source, or is in reality the outflow of a chain 
 of ponds lying two miles east of the Bay, cov- 
 ering an area of 3,500 acres, and having a 
 
6 WATER POWER. 
 
 length of about eight miles, and an average 
 breadth of three quarters of a mile. They 
 are mostly supplied by perennial springs, 
 though receiving the outlets of several other 
 sheets of water. The extent of country 
 drained, is comparatively small, — the whole 
 water-shed being not over 20,000 acres, and 
 the quantity of power therefore is to be attrib- 
 uted to the springs alluded to, and to the 
 great and rapid fall of the river, which in less 
 than half a mile is more than 129 feet. The 
 flow of the river is one hundred and twenty- 
 one and a half cubic feet per second, or 9^41,- 
 500,000 Imperial gallons in a year of three 
 hundred days of ten hours each. 
 
 The remarkable advantages of this river as 
 a mill stream have been increased by building 
 a dam at the outlet of the ponds, which gives 
 the water an additional fall of two feet , and 
 its lower banks are largely built up with great 
 manufacturing establishments, which, singly 
 or in groups, rapidly succeed each other. The 
 river for nearly its entire length runs upon a 
 granite bed, and for much of the distance is 
 confined between high banks, also of granite. 
 Differing therefore from most other water- 
 powers, this one allows the entire space be- 
 tween its banks to be occupied, and most of 
 
WATER POWER. 7 
 
 the water wheels connected with the older fac- 
 tories are placed directly in the bed of the 
 river. While there is an almost uniform and 
 constant supply of water, it is never subject 
 to excess, and an injury in consequence of a 
 freshet has never yet been known. As the 
 river is thus perfectly controllable, the mills 
 have been built directly across the river, the 
 wheels placed in the bed of the river, and yet 
 from an excess of water, no damage is to be 
 apprehended. In later years, most of the 
 breast wheels employed in these older mills, 
 have been supplanted by the modern appli- 
 ances of turbine wheels and steam power.. 
 
 The successful management of these facto- 
 ries on the stream (the oldest organized in 
 1813), was the foundation of the Cotton Manu- 
 facturing industry in Fall River. 
 
 In the course of years, with the increase of 
 wealth and skill in manufacture, and the en- 
 trance upon the stage of action of younger 
 men, new projects were formed, and since the 
 older mills occupied all available space upon 
 the river banks, new situations were sought 
 out and appropriated. The "New Mills," 
 so-called, (1868-73) were first erected on the 
 margin of the ponds to the south and east of 
 the city, and of which the stream is the outlet.

 and afterwards in the northerly and southerly 
 sections of the city, on the banks of the Taun- 
 ton river and Laurel lake. 
 
 The number of incorporated companies for 
 the manufacture of cotton goods is now thirty- 
 seven, owning fifty-four mills, with an 'incor- 
 porated capital of $17,478,000, but a probable 
 Investment of $35,000,000, containing 1,713,836 
 spindles, and 40,586 looms. 
 
 The census of 1880 reports the total num- 
 ber of mills in the United States as 751, con- 
 taining 227,156 looms and 10,678,516 spindles, 
 manufacturing 715,000,000 yards of print cloths 
 per annum. Of these. New England has 438 
 mills, containing 186,374 looms and 8,619,334 
 spindles, manufacturing 588,000,000 yards of 
 print cloths. Fall River has thus nearly l-6th 
 of all the spindles in the country, and about 
 l-5th of those in New England, and manufac- 
 tures over THREE-FIFTHS of all the print cloths. 
 
 The following table will show the number 
 of spindles in the mills of Fall River at the 
 close of each year respectively :

 Fall River is 49 miles south of Boston, 183 
 miles north-east of New York, 17 miles south 
 of Taunton, 18 miles south-east of Providence, 
 14 miles west of New Bedford, and 18 miles 
 north of Newport. Daily lines of steamers 
 connect Fall Kiver, Providence, Newport and 
 New York, while three lines of Railways give 
 ample passenger and freight communications 
 inland. 
 
 Fall River was formerly a part of Freetown, 
 and was incorporated as a separate town in 
 1803. Its name was soon after changed to 
 Troy, but in 1834 its old appellation was re- 
 stored. Its Indian name was " Quequeteant " 
 signifying the " place of falling water," and 
 that of the river " Quequechan " which signi- 
 fies "falling water" or " quick running water," 
 hence its appropriate name of Fall River- 
 " Watuppa," the Indian name of the ponds on 
 the east and by which they are still called, 
 signifies " boats " or the " place of boats." 
 
 Fall River was incorporated a City in 1854.
