M EETING

On Mondy night the regular meeting
of the Algiers Improvement Associa
ton was held at Pythian Hall with the
regular elected officers presiding. AT
ter the reading of the minutes by Sec
rotary Peter Muntz and their adoption
he was complimented on the manner
in which he had reported the business
of the previous meeting.
Peter s. Lawton, vice-president OF
the association, was elected chairman
of the executive committee. The new
bylaws, which went over to a second
reading, were adopted with a few
amendments. The executive commit
tee then made their reports through
subcommittee, on important matters,
which. were referred to them by the
Association. VIM. H. Ward and J. P.
Vezien, who were appointed a sub
committee on the matter of the dis
elimination in freight rates against
Algiers, made the following report:
Algiers, June 5, 1911.
President and Members,
Property Holders Assn.
Gentlemen-Yourc committee appoint
ed to report upon the status of Algiers
in the matter of railroad rates, trans
fer and switching charges, called upon
Mr.. J. A. Smith, president of the
Freight and Transportation Bureau of
the New Orleans Board of Trade, upon
Mr.. Smiths invitation, who gave us
sufficient information on this subject
as would enable us to obtain full data
in the shape of printed folders from
the Railroad Commission as soon as
some member of our organization can
devote the necessary time to make
the proper compilation. We find that
during list year and even this year so
far, that many concessions have been
granted us, so that now we are pleas
ed to say, many commodities can be
placed in Algiers in carload lots with
out the old time ferry and beltage
charges, which places us on par with
New Orleans. We feel that our posi-
ton is such at present that it would
be we'll to have said data compiled at
the earliest moment, so that our mer-
chants can begin taking advantage of
this new condition. No time should
be lost in advertising these new adj
vantages as soon as We can get the
matter in shape, so that factories may
be shown that for the first time in
our history we can offer city rail rates
on the incoming raw materials at
least.

Lake Salvador to this city had yet
been finally decided upon, beg 20 say
that We have authentic information to
the effect that report of the local
engineers strongly recommending said
route is now before the Army Engi-
neers at Washington in the shape of
a special report which will very likely
be acted upon within the next 80 days.
We find further, that said cana. has
now reached Galveston Bay in a shape
that while far from satisfactory 70
the government as yet, renders it pos
sible for small craft to presently use
it between said point and the Rio
Grande. We also find that the dimen-
sions of the canal which the govern
ment is building as the connecting
links between the bayous, rivers and
bays encountered throughout said to-
tai distance of some $50 miles, about
three-fourths of which has now been
completed, is but 40 feet bottom width
with a depth of 5 feet. No doubt but
the forthcoming special report NEIL
toned will furnish much OF tie data
We desire concerning this most i'm
portant enterprise.
1t is matter of great satisfaction to
know that this canal system has made
a good start and is not only being car
ried forward by the government but
several private canals AMI branches
in Louisiana are being constructed
with the expectation of their being i'm
portant feeders and part of the main
system.
Your committee will continue their
efforts to have the Algiers outfall ca
nal made a part of the final system
and connected with the Mississippi
river.
