GOVERNMENT RECLA|MS
L0NC-NECLECTEO AREA
Addition to Potomac Park, Re-
suit of Dredging-River
Channel Deepened.

| All that section of Potomac Park east
road embankment is ready for de-
velopment into public park. The
| complete reclamation of this long
| neglected area was the direct result of
extensive dredging done in the Wash
| ington channel during several years
paste
| According to a report just submitted
| to the War Department by Col. Lang
| fit, the engineer officer in charge of
| the Improvement of the Potomac river
| he has completed the dredging of the
Washington channel, the filling in of
| the park area below the railroad en-
| bankment and the raising of the sea
wall around that area. He reports that
the channel. which is two and half
| miles long. is % feet deep to a width
of 400 feet. and from IS to 90 feet deep
| to width of $50 feet.
Admits Largest Vessels
| That channel. says Col. Langftt. is
| sufficient to accommodate the largest
| vessels that can come up the river to
| this port.
| All the material excavated from the
| channel was deposited on the park area
with the result that the land has been
raised to an elevation of fourteen feet in
the center and to an elevation of eleven
feet at the sides. Col. Langtitt says that
the center of the reclaimed land is now
three feet above the elevation of the big
freShet of 1877 and that the margin of
the fill is six feet above low tide. The
sea wall around this area has been raised
from a four-foot level to a seven-foot
| level above mean low water.
Total Park Area
| Potomac Park, with the addition of the
| newly reclaimed section, has an area of
6oS acres. The section west and north
! of the railroad embankment has been
| highly improved and is one of the most
attractive spots in the District. Inn
provements of a similar character are
designed for the large waste area east
| and south OF the enIbankment. They
will be made soon the necessary
| funds are available. Estimates for be-
ginning the improvements, including the
| extension of Potomac drive around the
| edge of the eastern peninsula which eX
tends down the river to a point nearly
opposite Giesboro point, will be submitted
to Congress early in December with a
strong recommendation that liberal APP
propriations be made available as early
as possible.

Recommends Model Fish Market.

Outside of the general recommendation
for the improve nent of the water front,
the committee specifically urges the build
ing in Washington of a model fish wharf
and market. If the District secures pos
session of the fish wharf which WAS
leased to William w. Riley March IL,
1903. for II ive-year period, and over
which litigation for five-year renewal
is now pending In the courts. the report
recommends that the District provide for
the erection of a model fish wharf and
market. either by leasing the property
under conditions which will bring about
the desired results. or by asking Con-
gress for an appropriation.
In the event of an appropriation being
asked. the erection and operation of the
wharf, it is suggested, should be under
the supervision and control of the Dis
trict superintendent of weights and meas
ureS.
The wharf committees report is signed
by the members of the committee They
are Daniel T. Garges, T. j. c. Baily. jr..

by the District in wharf rents during tho

Hazen in Request Concern
ing Land Along Anacostia.

The need of determining the owner
ship of property along the Anacostia
river has been called to the attention
Of the District Commissioners twice
in annual reports submitted during the
past few days.
District Surveyor Hazep in his re-
port urged that a highway be built
along the original high water mark
which will serve as d boundary line
between government and private owned
property.
In the report of the wharf commit
tee, submitted to the Commissioners
yesterday. it is suggested that the mat
ter of ownership be determined as soon
AS possible. so that the question of the
Improvement of the water front may be
given consideration.
Engineer Commissioner Judson stated
that the matter is to be thoroughly
gone into by the Commissioners this
year in connection with the working
out of a plan for the Improvement of
the reclaimed Anacosta flats.

which contains statistics relating TO the

urges an Improvement of the water front

To Congress May -, 1o0s. The estimated
cost of the work is S3,OO0,oOO.

Plans and specifications for the ad-
dltfon to the west side of the govern
ment building in Pensacola. as well
as remodeling the entire interior OF
tne building have been completed in
the offtce OF the supervising architect
In washington and have been turned
over to a congressional committee for
approval before proposals are invited
for the work
This news has Just reached Pensa-
cola, and II is expected that within
short time bids will be asked for
and the contract awarded for the
work, which was authorized two years
ago when congress appropriated $780,
700 Tor this purpose. There were some
negotiations by the government for the
old express company office, but this
has been abandoned.
The addition will be thirty feet in
width and the same length and height
OF the present building. The same
class of material will also be used ana
the architecture is similar.
Besides the addition the interior of
the building is to be remodeled entire
ly and brought up to more modern
ideas Considerable Of the 500. 600
will be used for this pur-
pose. Instead of one corridor on the
second and third floors there win be
two, while the court room and offices
to be occupied by the court offices will
be changed about and all Of the Of
fees placed on one floor.
The work to be done will greatly
improve the appearance of the build
ing, as well as to furnish the much
needed room.
