dredging proposed equals that Of the embank-
ment. but If any additional material Is required
for filling it can be taken from the vicinity of
the Naval Observatory.
RECAPITULATIoN OF ESTIMATES.
The first estimate submitted, for filing 6
feet in height, with a dry rubble masonry wall
and entertainments, is the estimate recon-
mended for the improvement, and amounts to
S2,27l $50. The second estimate is a modifica-
ton of the first, by emitting the entertainments
and using a slope protection Of rip-rap, and
amounts to 81 .S9l 4S3.
While if the filling is made 5 feet high. with
the rip-rap slopes the cost will be 81 160 2l6. L.
however, recommend the adoption of the first
plan.
The price Of dredging Is taken at 10 cents per
cubic yard on the assumption that at least
$500 COO per wear will be available for the work
Ii smaller appropriations are made the cost
per cubic yard-and therefore the total cost
must be increased accordingly
METHOD OF EXECUTING THE WORK.
1t is recommended that the work be done 10y
contract In the usual manner, and that the
work below the Long Bridge be executed first
so as TO prevent the formation Of ice gorges and
the consequent injury TO property
respectfully recommend that an appropria-
ton of S2,21l 900 be made for the purpose OF
carrying out the Improvement, at least SsOo,oU
to be available annually.

TEE IMPROVEMENT OF THE RIVER FRONT.
THE PLANS ENDORSED BY THE
ENGINEER COMMISSION,
The Reports of Engineer Commissioner
Twining and Col. Albert.

The board of engineers convened in New
York to consider the plans and estimates for the
Improvement of navigation of the Potomac
river. in the vicinity of Washington. D. c., the
raising of the flats in front of the CITY, and the
establishment Of the harbor lines reported their
conclusion TO be that an improvement which
shall combine substantially and in it's essential
features the harbor and shore lines of Mr.
Abert's plan from Easby's point to the arsenal
and the low grade, filling and surrounding en-
bankment OF that plan below the Long bridge.
with cheaper revetment than he proposes, with
Maj Twining's high grade filling and sluicing
ponds between the Long bridge and Easby's
point offers better solution of the various
questions connected with the Improvement of
navigation. the establishment Of the harhor
lines. and the reclamation of the flats than any
Of the other projects or Combinations of projects
that have been considered.
In view of this conclusion reached BY the
board. it becomes a matter of interest to know
something Of the details Of the plans proposed
by Maj. Twining and Engineer Albert, respect
lively. The reports setting forth tn ese plans are
therefore printed in full below:
