ANOTHER LINE OF STEAMSHIPS
TO ENTER PORT EVERY WEEK.
Vast improvements Planned for the Harbor.-Light
Buoys to be Placed as Soon as the Spring
Opens.

The Crystal Steamship line, of New
York, who have the contract for carry
ing the United States mail between
Now York and Trinidad and Port au
Spain, have just signed twenty-six
years contract with the Barber AS
phalt Company, bringing asphalt from
Trinidad to their plant in this city.
In conversation with News report
er, this morning, a pilot in charge OF
the local station of the New Jersey
Pilots Association, said that the Crys-
tai Steamship Line is both mail ami
passenger service company. The boats
which arrive at New York once q
week, would get off their mail and
passengers and then proceed to this
port. The first steamer of the line to
arrive was the Grenada, Captain
Murchison, which came up the bay
yesterday morning.
In speaking about the boats coming
into the local harbor the pilot said
that the New JERSEY Pilots Associa-
tion had written to the authorities at
Washington and they had replied that
the harbor would be deepened out SO
as to have O twenty three foot channel,
as some of the boats of the Grenada
class draw TWENTY-FIVE feet. The
association also asked that the govern
ment place lighted buoys in the chan
mel and they have their promise to do
SO as SOON as spring comes. Five OF
these buoys will be placed in the
ohanuel. One may be at quarantine,
the others will be at stakes 1, 3, 3 and
s. For the fire lighted buoys the
govsrIim6nt will have to spend $4,000
each, but as the pilot says, If one
steamship q week comes through
Perth Amboy channel then we must
have improvements to help along with
the work.
This winter ice buoys have been
placed in the channel and they have
withstood the ice and storms. With
the year of 1908 Just ended, the New
Jersey Pilots Association has taken
up the channel, 104 registered ships
of all classes and they expect to take
twice as many for the year 1904.
