In the last half OF September seven
teen new vessels built in the United
States we're reported to the bureau CT

steamers. and the Atlantic Pacific,
lakes and rivers were represented in
the list. The two lake steamers meas
ured 11.101 gross tons, and the other
vessels combined made total OF
Els tons. Deep channels provided
by the government enable the two
lake vessels to carry at least 1900
tons Of freight in one load, and the

on the lakes than on the ocean. Cur
