THE SHIP CHANNEL
SURVEY COMPLETED
PRELIMINARY LINES RUN FOR
DEEP WATER CHANNEL FROM
BROWNSVILLE TO BRAZOS SAN
TIAGO PASS.

After nearly two months of work. the
preliminary survey for the ship channel
to Brazos Santiago Pass, as proposed BY
the Brownsville Ship Channel Associatin
has been completed. This survey was
for the purpose of ascertaining whether
the direction taken was correct and in
accordance with government surveys of
the section between Brownsville and the
Gulf
The surveyors are now working on
high ground in the Chicago Gardens and
Little Indiana District for the purpose
of locating and stalking out the exact
right of way, or permanent location.
When this j. completed, it is expected
that the lower ground between Little
Indiana and the Gulf will be surveyed.
The surveyors have been much delayed
in their work because Of bad weather
and the great water areas through which
the proposed channel will have to 20.
The route as mapped out is to be an
air line from Brownsville TO Brazos San
tiaoo Pass. 1t starts near the northeast
ern suburbs of the town and runs in a
perfectly straight line to the coast, lying
throughout several miles south of the
Rio Grande railroad and entering La
guna Madre about two miles below
Point Isabel.

Of the application Of the street railway
company for a change III It's franchise,
substituting Levee street for Mesquite
in its franchise. and permitting it TO ex-
tend from its present terminus of Leyee
to the city limit. The street and bridge
committee recommended that the request
be granted.
Alderman CObolini. however. objected.
stating that two and half blocks OH
Mesquite would be affected. instead of
one block. as originally stated. and four
persons had protested against the
change lie thought it would be unfair
to any who had property on Mesquite
street, expecting the railway to run that
way.
Mayor Cole favored granting the com
pany the right to both streets. The com
pany had already built more than three
miles of track and was not obligated to
build the Mesquite street track anyway.
Upon motion of Mr. CobOlini. the matter
was passed until next meeting.
Alderman Kirk. chairman of special
committee appointed to investigate com
plants against the city poundmaster.
reported that there was no basis to the
complaints and that no fault could be
found with the manner in which the
poundmaster is conducting his official
duties. The report was accepted and the
committee discharged.
