has forwarded to Washington the an
nual report OF that department, says the
Cincinnati Times-Star. After comment
ing upon the great benefit to river uavi.
CATION the Davis Island dam has proved
to be, and its incalculable value to the
coal carryingtrade, the report continues:
'During the fiscal year the lock and
dam have been successfully operated
without interference with navigation.
The dam has been raised and lowered
twice and has been up one hundred and
seyeuty-two days during the fiscal year.
The cost of operating and care Of the
dam during the year was S13,72S a."
OF the movable dam below the mouth
Of Beaver river the report says: Work
Of construction progressed satisfactorily
during the season, and at its close about
eighty per cent Of the work Of con-
struction on the river wall, drift chute,
gate recesses and foundations OF the
lock have been completed"
The survey for the movable dam No.
2 authorized by the act Of July IS, 1892,
has been made. OF the appropriations
for the movable dam below the mouth
Of Beaver river $4,000 SO was unex-
pended July last. BY tho act Of
August II, 1894, the sum of $4,000 ad-
ditional was appropriated, making
$ll9,699 SO the amount available for the
year ending July 30, 1895. The report
estimates that $4,000 will be needed
to complete tho project, OF which $780,
900 can be proftably expended in the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1896. As to
the general improvement Of the Ohio
river. Col Stickney estimates that
81, 900. 900 could be profitably expended
during the coming year. The balance
available July l, 1894, was SlS4, 100 40.
The report further states that the
dam between the foot OF Neville island
and Towhead has been extended $50
feet to close gap caused by erosion.
The dam between Davis and Neville
island was repaired and new quarters
for employees were erected on Davis
island. At Logstown the main dyke.
recommended by board OF engineers,
has been completed and the training
dyke nearly completed, increasing the
depth in the bar. A survey is in pro-
gress to determine the Sowing effect
and other dangers.
