A REroRIEU Of the Galveston Record
publishes the following interview had
with n gentleman who has had consid-
cradle acquaintance with the system of
coast improvements in Texas. Speak
ing of Aransas Pass, lie says: 1.-THE
survey of 1879 showed the depth of the
entrance channel to be not over six feet
at mean low tide, the pilots record show
ing the depth to be but five feet for
crossing during January, February and
March of that year, and but five and one
half feet for some months thereafter, and
this previous to any work whatever by
the government. Now, as by the official
survey, any vessel drawing II feet may
cross the bar at that point in safety and
at any time" How do you regard
Aransas as port of entryY at Is of
the greatest importance to the western
portion of Texas, not only as a harbor of
refuge for line of dangerous coast, but
as a port of outlet for products of Mexl-
co, the Pacific coast, and the territory
north of it. Important lines Of railway
are already projected to this point, with
one line already in operation from
Corpus Christi through Laredo into
Mexico. \ steamship line Is now estab-
lished-between England and this port,
and with 20 to % feet of water for en-
trance the interests Of navigation would
seek this harbOr because of its availa-
bility beyond any other point along this
coast west of Galveston, and in connec-
