CHANNEL PLAN
IS ANNOUNCED
BY ENGINEER
Colonel Zinn Says IS Foot
Dredging Will Begin
Next Spring
s., 100000 SET ASIDE
FOR THE IMPROVEMENT

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Sept g.
Business aud shipping men we're
greatly interested in the announce
ment yesterday by Colonel George A.
zinn. in charge Of the United States
Engineers ONCE, that dredging would
be started next spring in front OF the
city piers to bring the depth Of the
channel in the Delaware River inside
She harbor 10 35 feet.
This is known as the western chan
mel. II will be 500 feet wide and will
extend about 10000 feet from q point
nearly opposite Sixth street, Glouces-
ter. n. j.. to a point opposite Wolf
street Philadelphia. The dredging 2
will begin at the pierhead line in front
OF Philadelphia and Will be carried
to the center line Of the proposed 35-
foot channel. II will involve the re-
moval OF about 100000 cubic yards
of material
Announced to Norris.
Colonel zinn's announcement was
made in a letter 70 Director George
W. Norris, of the Department OF
Wharves. In previous correspon-
dence the Director said that he re-
oieved many complaints from ship
ping men because Of shoals IN the
river and bars in front Of the docks
Mr.. Norris said in his letters that
f6,00o,000 has been spent during the
year ending June 30 on the improve.
ment OF the harbor and piers by the
municipality and private owners.
The proposed plans will give an
open path to vessels entering this city
Heretofore IL was necessary for ships
entering this harbor TO come by the
eastern channel. opposite the New
Jersey shore
Appropriations amounting to about
$500. 900 for improvements in the
Delaware have been made by the Gov.
ernment This money will be expend.
ed for the construction OF a 25-fooi
channel from this city to the sea.
At present the 35-foot channel ex.
tends from Greenwich Point, this
city to Chester Dredging has been
under way between these two points
for some thine. and $500 600 has al
ready been expended on this work
From Greenwich Point on the Jersey
side TO Christian street the depth is
30 feet. Starting at Christian street
and extending to Allegheny avenue
the depth is only rs feet
Large Vessels Restricted.
For years shipping men have com
plained that the channel was too shall
low to allow high draught boats ia
navigate Recently, It was said by
one shipping man. that two vessels
came to this port with 80 feet draught.
There was cargo enough for these
vessels at this port to load 10 full
capacity but owing to the depth OF
the channel they could only load with
in two OF three feet Of the water
line
The work that is to be started next
spring Is the beginning OF a S5-foot
channel, 100 feet wide, that will ex-
tend from Allegheny avenue 70 the
Horseshoe Curve. The present work
will. in a measure. afford relief 10
shipping in the vicinity Of GreeRGich
piers and along the lower end Of the
Philadelphia water front. The funds
of the Engineers Department ac.
cording to Colonel zinn. will not
permit more extensive operations in
the Philadelphia harhor at present.
