THREE CHANGES
IN HARB0R BILL
Commerce Committee of Sen.
ate on Jersey Appropriations

Washington, Feb. 19:-Only three
changes. So far as New Jersey appro-
priations are concerned. were made
In the rivers and harbors bill by the
commerce committee OF the senate.
Senator Marines efforts to have the
Jersey side OF the Hudson river chan
mel improved by a $500, 900 appropri-
alton was partially successful.
The committee gave the project
100000. with the further proyiso
that the secretary Of war could make
a contract whereby he will be allow
ed $4,000 more for the next i'm
proyement at the next session.
Mr.. MARITIME tried to have the COM
mittee make the Arthur Kill and
Raritan bay appropriation a c%ontinu-
Gus project. with authority for the
ultimate outlay Of s1,600,000. The
committee turned 1t down. The bill
allows now 100000 outright for the
work.
The second change was in regard
10 the improvement OF Absecon inlet,
A project which was left out OF the
mc"~rre -,Hen It was passed by the
house. Through the activity Of At
} e senate committee
has incorporated a paragraph allot-
ill., 4-o,oVv Tor dredging to keep
open the channel until completion OF
a dredge authorized for the inlet last
session. There is a provision that
no part Of the sum shall be available
until the secretary of war is satisfied
that local interests, al they have
promised, shall have made provision
for furnishing $4,000 for the i'm
provement and deposited the sum in
a bank to the credit G the secretary
CT val.
The appropriation of $4,000 for
improving Woodbury. creek was
stricken out because Of non-fulfll-
ment OF conditions on which the
appropriation was p~redicated. E
