Inst. {. +. in his paper read before the

anticipate, the plan can be modiiled &C,
cordingly y This proposition has called
forth much adverse criticism on the
ground that such a plan would cause the
shoaling of the protected anchorage.
The breakwater would form huge grow
ing projecting from the shore, intercept
ing and arresting the shore currents, ana
it is hard to conceive how under such
conditions shoaling should not take
lace. On small scale the case is well
illustrated by the groin which at was
found neces sary to project from the orig
nll jetty between Rattlesnake island and
Deadman $ island for the direct purpose
OF accumulating sand. 1t was projected
into these same littoral currents ana sand
did accumulate. Reference TO the man
will show the cases are parallel, the differ
ence between them being one of magni-
tude. If we may draw any conclusion
from the reef lying off Point Firmin 1900
feet to the westward of the proposed
breakwater, a large opening is not needed
to pass the shore currents. The outer
portion of the reef at it shoalest place has
only three feet of water over it at low
tide, and is separated from the inshore
portion by narrow passage four and one

island and Deadman's island have not
been fulfilled except where his plan has
been augmented by the construction of
groins, and even these have been attend
ed with only partial success. 1t is fortu-
nate that such is the case. for if there
existed a tendency Of the sand to acumu-
late along the sides of the dyke, then the
entrance to the harbor, being at the end
of that lire, would in all probability be
subject to periodical shoaling up under,
certain conditions of the weather, and:
would not have erioyed Its present per-
manency.
On account of the accumulation

of establishing railway communication
