things in relieving the present pressure on the
waterfront at the lower end OF the city as well
az aid in the development Of our commerce by

Before long, indeed, the Harlem River will be

that must be attributed the action Of the Astor
estate in recently spending over million dol
lars in building bulkheads where its land borders

the Inauguration Of the Harlem Canal tomorrow
nossesses a greater degree Of importance TO the
