The monthly meeting OF the Board Of
Trade will be held on Thursday evening.
1t promises to be an interesting meeting,
as two important matters viii be discussed.
The proposition to amend the charter
of Wilmington is one Of the subjects that
will be reported upon by the special com
mittee appointed to secure data upon the
charter question. IL seems to be the idea
OF the committee to amend and add to the
present city charter until it will meet the
requirements of greater Wilmington. One
of the chief questions TO be discussed at
the meeting on Thursday evening will be
the ship canal project The members are
hopeful that the resolution providing for
an appraisement for deep water canal
from the Delaware Bay 10 the Chesapeake
Bay will be passed by Congress. While
there. seems TO be almost a certainty that
the resolution will pass the House OF Rep
resentatives, there is some doubt in the
minds of some of the members whether
the Senate will look with favor upon the
project. The canal committee Of the
Board Of Trade has been active for long
time upon the canal project and the mem
bers of the committee feel that they will
be rewarded for their work by Congress
taking favorable action. The committee
will probably report fully upon the matter
on Thursday night.

WATER BOARD MEETING.

At the meeting of the Water Board yes
terday afternoon Registrar Grohe reported
that the balance in bank TO the credit Of
the department was sos, 1929. He also
reported $4,000 collected in two days.
The report was approved. The weekly
pav-roll Of 81 .6629l and the monthly pay
roll OF 81 ,540.Ol were approved and
ordered paid.
Chief Engineer Lessen reported that the
new pipe line being laid to the Weldin
Farm had been tested to the Boulevard,
and the commissioners thought it would
be well to do no further work, pending the
settlement of the extension matter. The
test. which was very satisfying, took place
on Saturday The announcement was
made by the engineer that everything
would be in readiness TO begin work on the
proposed bridge across the Brandywine
at Van Buren, street with the opening OF
spring.

For OUTSIDE SERVICE.
Ericsson Line Win Have Two New
Steamships Built.

Steamships Built.
a contract for the construction of two
new steamships for the Ericsson Lines
outside service between Philadelphia and
Baltimore viii be given out tomorrow.
The Harlan q Hollingsworth Co. will
probably bid for the work.
The new ships win have guaranteed
speed of eighteen miles an hour, and will
cover the distance of 420 miles in from
20 to "a hours. They viii be 300 feet
long. 40 feet beam and will have carry
ing capacity of 1000 tons. They will be
single screw ships, fitted with four
cylinder, triple expansion engines, having
2O0-horse power, each boat having four
water tube boilers of 200 pounds press
ire. There will be accommodations for
POO first class and $50 second class pas
sengers, plans showing twelve state
rooms on upper deck, sixty-eght on hur-
rioane deck and twenty-five forward be-
tween decks and single berth rooms for
$50 passengers
It is the intention of the company to
make a regular stop at Cape May. With
the institution of these new steamers
there will be an uninterrupted service
the year round, the ice and other causes
incidental 10 the canal route frequently
requiring Is to 20 hours for the inside
boats to make the trip from one port TO
the other, the last two winters the canal
being closed on account of the ice for
from two 10 three months. The inside
service will be maintained through the
canal only during the summer months, as
the traffic may justify. 1t is hoped TO
have the new ships in service within
twelve months.

and the remainder beyond the city limits
Ina Water Department has roughly out
lined this project on a map on file in the
4 denartment office, so as to show Just how
|reb a road would run. The lines have
been continued so as TO make a turn
when the Weldin farm is reached, thence
mining parallel TO the turnpike out as
N as tie Falk road. This is only in
syent Of a desire TO run the road out that
Another plan is to bring the road
sTound, after passing the reservoir site,
to Lombardy cemetery, which is only a
short distance above.
The Water Department is concerned,
r directly, only in having the road extend
"a 10 the reservoir site, in order that the
pipes might be laid therein and that
there might be a public highway direct
70 that point, but it is said also, that
they would like to see the Boulevard, in

route is straight from the present ter

kind done, although there would be
nothing definite until the board had de.

Boulevard, except the matter Of expense

posed road that would be interfered with

4 fields. II runs through properties owned
by several people and Mr.. Lessen will Sc,

Such a road would, of course, cross tn,
Baltimore & Ohio railroad, but Mr.. Lei

ton, as it would cross the railroad at Z
point where there is about a lO-foot IN
which would mean going under the rail
