STEAMER HOWARD TO BE
CUT AKO tEN0THEkED
Merchants & Miners Company Pro-
poses to Have vessel improved as
Were the Juniata and Essex.


II was learned yesterday on excel
lent authority, that the Merchants
and Miners Transportation Company
has asked fer bids from the various
shipyards along the Atlantic coast
for lengthening its steamer How
ard. by cutting her hull in two parts,
amidships. and building a new section
of the required length between the
forward and after part.
The Juniata and Essex, two or the
steamers owned by the company and
plying on the line between this port,
Baltimore and Boston have been lenS-
thened in a similar manner within
the past few years. both Jobs being
executed at the local shipyard. 1t is
expected that the local company. z:
il bids. will have an excellent chance
of securing the contract for the work.
A job of this kind is very fine
piece CT shipbuilding and requires the
use of dry dock for about two
months. II Is expected that the APP
proximate cost Ct doing the WORK oil
the Howard should amount to about
$4,000.
IL is expected that the bids on the
work will be opened at the Office of
the owning company in the early part
of August, and that the contract will
be awarded at that time.
