Newly Dredged Inlet, % Feet Deep at

Special to The Herald.

SAN PEDRO, July 14.-The first
vessel to come through the new chan
mel leading from the outer to the in
ner harbor, which has recently been
'dredged by the North American Dredg-
ing company, was the ship Henry
Willard which was towed through this
afternoon.
The work on this channel has been
going on for months, but the vessels
ala not pass through ii until now, the
dredger being in the way
Captain Hamilton, the port pilot,
went out this morning and took the
soundings Of the channel before bring
ing the vessel through 1t and found
that it was practically 200 feet wide
and twenty two feet deep at mean
low tide. AS the ship, which draws
about that amount of water, is not a
wide one, she came through easily at
high tide, which is about six feet this
time of the year.
The German ship Lisbeth is in the
outer harbor yet and the captain was
anxious to be towed in first but the
pilot insisted on bringing an American
vessel in first. The Henry Willard
has large cargo of lumber, some-
thing over 100000 feet.
The completion of this channel means
that any deep sea vessel can come
into the inner harbor now if desired
