THE PoToMAC IMPROVEMENTS
Cen Casey. in his annual report to the
Seer tary of War, calls attention to a
or4ye danger threatening the city Of
Washington by reason of freshets. He
says:
THE northerly end of the Long
bridge across the Washington channel
has been reconstructed by the Balti-
more and Potomac Railroad Company
on plans approved by the Secretary of
War, the work being as yet incomplete,
owing to the settlement of the abut-
ment>. Reference is made in the re-
mort of the officer in local charge to the
necessity of rebuilding Long bridge.
In the event ola freshet occurring when
tbe Potomac river is full of ice great
damage is to be expected. The piers
Of the bridge are of such faulty con-
struction that an ice gorge would be
probable, which would cause the water
10 back up and overflow portions OF the
city front, and through the sewers
above the bridge such portions of the
lower parts Of the city us may be
drained by them. Great damage was
done by the freshet OF June, 1889, but
greater damage may occur from a
frcshet of lesser magnitude il accompa-
MED by an ice gorge.
one improvements recommended con-
templates dredging a channel u feet
deep and 200 feet wide from the mouth
up to the navy yard bridge, with ba-
sin i'm front of the navy ward 100 feet
wide and u feet deep this channel to
be videned ut reduced depth TO LOCO
feet as the demands of commerce may
require in the future The material
dredged is to be deposited on the
flats or marshes on either side OF the
river
Another important improvement re-
commended is the formation of cham
mel 200 feet wide and n feet deep at
low tide through the five Instructions

Georgetown, at an estimated cost OF
about S300,O0 rs follows Kettle Bot

shoal. $50, 1875 Smiths Point shoals,
SO 900 Mattawoman shoals, 500.
at Washington, Sl4l.504.
In his report no further estimates are
submitted for the Improvement of the
river at Mount Vernon.
For the improvement Of Occoquan
creek $500 is asked, and $4,000 for
Aqua creek.
The following estimates are also sub
mitted:
Nomini creek, $4,000; Rappahan-
mock river, $4,000 Urbana creek,
SlO.0SO; York river, Sl15,050; Malta
poni river, $4,000; Pamunkey river,
5000.
The report gives the result of the sur
vcys ordered by Congress, showing the
sums necessary for the completion of
the projects named.
