NoApvANrAGE Ar NEW ORLEANS.

No AnN ANiANE n u INV NhAhstNNF'
In a discussion OF insurance rates on
ocean cotton freignts IN this city recent
lv the argument was advanced thnt New
orleans has deeper water 90 the sea chan
Savannah and therefore can accommodate
larger steamers. fl seems. however. that
New Orleans has no advantage over sa-
vnnnah in this respect. When the jet
ties az che mouth Of the Mississippi were
built the channel between them was Is
feet deep in the shailowest place. and 20
feet in the deepest.
The ietties are not as effective. however,
as obey were when first constructed. In
the channel made by them there s. only
g feet OF water iu the shallowest places,
and the shoaling is going on 80 fast that
e has been found impossible 10 maintain
the channel a. even chat depth at all
times. The efforts 20 increase the SCOUT
ing force Of the current hy making the
ietty channel narrower. have proven tn.
effective The volume OF water passing
through them has been diminished, a
/ greater percentage OF water going out
/ through Southwest Pass and Pass
/ a Ia I6uue. There Is now a
/ proposition 20 abandon the jetucs
which are construcsed IN South
Pass and construct jct,ies in Southwest
Pass. which is much larger than South
Pass. ana promises a better channel.
Hero at Savannah we have 20 fces on
the ocean bar. and IL does not undergo any
change. That. as already stated, is just
about tho depth through the ietues at
/ New Orleans. II che 2s-foot project
should be undertaken IN savannahs har-
Dor the ocean bar would OF course have 10
be deepencd Il Is tho understanding that
tina, could be easily accomplished Il IS
handy probable that e Il should be de-
termined 60 improve Southwest Pass "a
deeper channel than q feet could be Sc.
cured II appears therefore that New
orleans cannot now. ana is not likely 10
In the future. accommodate larger steam
ors than Savannah.

An AIRLINE RAILROAD TO AT
q sIA


There is some talk OF an air line rail-
road to Augusta. a short line connecting
the Louisville and Nashville system with
Savannah Is al that is needed 90 perfect
this city's control OF the commerce OF the
South and Southeast an air line road
60 Augusta would be very short one
not over a hundred miles Ia length. Such
a line would be Of great advantage 90
Augusta as well as to savannah. For
years Augusta has been wanting a short
line 20 the sea. and II would not be- bad
Idea for some 81 her entcrprising citizens
20 start the undertaking and enlist others
OF the same kind ln Savannah.
Savannah has had practical inustra-
ton OF what a new railroad can do for
city In the results which have followed
tho building OF the South Bound Railroad
Cnow a part Of the seahoard Air Limo
from this city 10 Columbia. This railroad
was built almost entirely hy savannah
capital aud savannah men. Without that
railroad the Florida Central ana PENN
sular Railroad from Jacksonville 60 sa-
vaunah. would not have been built. and
Savannah would not have had che Sea-
board Air Line or iis terminals on Hutch
inson's Island. or the additional business
which they have brought 20 this port.
There are now four great railroad sys-
TENS which either make savannah their
headquarters or principal export port, and,
Wth d short line road TO Augusta. it Is
reasonable 20 conclude that the Louisville
and Nashville system would avail itself
90 the advantages OF this port. such
road would add greatly 10 the perily
OF Augusta by bringing IL nearer To the
sea \ million o, dollars could ac raised
easily ia che two cities by construction
