TIE oKERcRoRDEp HARBOR.

It has been said so often that it has become
trite that the navies of the world could float on
the bosom of New-York Harbor. AS a matter
Of fact, feet of about two thousand vessels,
nearly twice the number of armOred and
armored war vessels in the navies Of all
tons, ply the waters Of this port. The roOmi-
ness of the source of New-York's prosperity
and importance has been one of the proud
boasts of the New-Yorker. That there is
limit to the capacity of a harbor COmmOdouS
is, however, being realized. The channels
through which three-ffths OF the foreign COM
merce of the nation is floated are overcrowded.
So overcrowded are they that the safety Of YES
sells is constantly threatened and the demands
upon the pilots alertness and experience are
increasing. This is clearly shown in an article
in another part of to-day's Tribune. 1t is time
to consider ways to relieve the congestion, espe-
cially as the enlargement of the Erie Canal land
the opening of the Panama Canal, Also in
measure will add to the fleets that vex the
choppy waters surrounding Manhattan.
The fact that NewYork is the chief gateway
for the foreign commerce of the United States
is not entirely responsible for the present con
dition. The location of the city on an island is
contributory. Indeed, this might be said to be
the cause of ii. This geographical fact is re-
spcnsible for the existence of fleet of $50
ferryboats, a hundred or more carfoats and
hundreds Of lighters, barges and tugs. The gen
efal line or movement of these vessels is across
that Of the in and out bound commerce. Nearly
all the collisions in the harbor are between
these harbor vessels! The condition is further
aggravated by the fact that practically all YES
sells are being built larger, and, in the case of
ferryboats, faster, also 1t is obvious that rem
edies lie III the direction Of a Encouragement of
the lines Of movement and elimination where
ever possible.
The ability of the best marine architects has
been applied TO the designing of ferryboats for
NewYork Harbor. The new ones contain the
best that has been evolved for securing safety
and speed. They are operated with great care.
Rarely is a life lost through collision Already
this year, however, AZ of the $50 ferry
boats have been involved in collisions, and only
skill in handling and excellence in construction
prevented accidents of n serious nature The
ferryboat problem is being simpll1ed by the
building of bridges and tunnels, but much re-
mains TO be done
Tows were involved in twenty seven of the
eighty-fve collisions reported this year up to
September l. They are menace to navigation
The giant carfoats, almost Interchangeable in a
tdeway are especially dangerous. They are
huge battering rams. Sixteen OF the twenty
seven collisions were charreable to this type of
vessel Owing to the economy and convenience

Technically. perhaps, IT is proper to take cog

promptly enough to accommodate Kelley, but,
as has been remarked by The Tribune before,
the only consequence which should normally
follow neglect OF this kind is slight delay to

the cost Of operation is not to be ignored even

wake up to the advantages Of suppressing the
odor now emitted from their machines while on
the road. Though the owner of an automobile
does not himself suffer from this offensive con-
comitant Of ride, he may eventually want to
concede something to public opinion. Invention
would be stimulated by a legal prohibition OF
the nuisance, but so radical a measure is hard
~ called for. II a maker, after pointing to the
other virtues of his carriage could affirm that
1t was superior to all rivals in its freedom from
smell, he ought to have something like mo-

There was nothing in the automobile race on

for it will serve as an announcement to future
recklessness and will promote lamentable re-
suits in the end Moreover. there is absolutely
no good purpose served by a speed exceeding

II for long time tunnels will be built for
freight traffic. The congestion at the Battery
Will be somewhat relieved when the Pennsyl
vana Railroad opens it's projected freight ferry
between Bay Ridge and its new terminal at
Greenville. The New England and Long Island
freight business of the Pennsylvania system
will be handled by this route
commerce is INSTRUCTED and endangered by
the making up of lows Of barges in the East
River near the Battery. > number Of years
ago, when grain was sold directly from the
canal barges, Coenties Slip was assigned to this
class OF vessels. Now that this method is no
longer used, they might be removed elsewhere.
1t has been suggested that q section of the
waterfront of The Bronx be assigned to them.
If this were done the tows bound to or coming
from ew-England could then be taken through
the Harlem River. This would save a twenty
five mile journey around the Battery and
through Hell Gate.
The plan of several steamship men to secure
legislation requiring that in contracted chan
nels, barges be towed alongside the tug, and the
governments plan to establish a new dumping
ground off the Rockaway shore, will do much
toward removing menace to steamship navi-J
cation in the Lower Bay. At present all mud
scoWs cross the main ship channel at two
points, the two functions of the Swash and
Main channels.
From the point of view of safety it would be
well if all the Sound steamers were docked on
the East River front These bulky vessels are
moved with great care around the Battery. but
the traffic at this point is enormous count
