pretty well, aud he speaks openly

per cent additional cost. Hence, the

/ BY the use Of approved mechanical
methods, greater tonnage Gotten

The following report on unit river
terminals, as applied to cities of the
upper Mississippi river, designed by
H. Mel. Harding, consulting and ic-
signing engineer. freight terminals,
New York City, for the Upper Missis-
sippi River Improvement association,
was unanimously adopted by that :
ganization at the meeting. held in ST.
Paul, January 81. Mr.. Thomas VIII
kinson OF Burlington, president Of the
association, attended the meeting and
stated that there was great deal OF
enthusiasm over Mr.. Har lings report.
The report is as follows:
At many river cities of moderate
size, as upon the upper Mississippi
and It's tributaries, between the busi-
ness portion and the waters edge,
there often interviews railway tracks
and the railroad rights-of way.
Between these tracks and the water
there is usually available for a tsrm,-
nal, including the levee, on area the
width of which is from 100 to liz
feet.
On account of the convenience OF
.thess locations for shipping and re.
sceiving freight, ana the short dray
haulage, it is generally desired to
establish here the industrial or local
freight water terminal of the city.
In the attached sketch are given
the end, the front elevation, and the
plan with quay wall section. These
are intended to give general idea
of certain river-terminals where the
maximum depth OF low water i5 six
feet, and the average rise OF the riv
er about sixteen feet.
General Application.
The plan secures a greater eff
cheney per lineal foot for quay walk
than is deemed possible with project
ing piers.
This sketch should not be regarded
as directly applicable to any particu
lar city as many notifications woult
va necessary.
To correctly locate and design an!
terminal there would be requires
exact measur rements, horizontal ant
vertical, and a knowledge of the tran
fic conditions and the freight move
ments, the rise OF the water and tn
direction of the currents, of what tn
wall foundation would consist, as we.
las the slope and width OF the levee
and similar preliminary information
upon which to base correct conclu
ssions and estimates.
II Cautions.
A terminal should not BIZ situate
where there is a probability of grea
erosion of the banks or shoalin
OF the channel. A suitable locatio
can usually be found.
! great variation in the rise or ia
OF the river or the existence of higi
banks, effects but little the freigl,
transferring, as the increase in tn
'f necessary number of feet of hoistin
cr low wsring represents little loss {
ume where the quick lifting machil
cry is installed.
The daily Gate City., 1914-02-15

about s16O to 5000 per lineal foot,
exclusive Of the land, the railway
tracks, and the wall foundations, the
cost OF the latter being only ascer-
tainsd after the behring's have been
mads These foundations may add
considerably to the cost, depending
upon the difficulty in seclringsa solid
foundation. So.

but where this is impossible, the
warehouses can be placed in line
with the sheds. There can be ors
warehouse in this case for each 600
feet, that is, one for each two units.
There should be study therefore
of each city frontage, SO that the
necessary notifications can be made.
Unit Lengths.
The length Of each unit is given as
300 feat, being little longer than the
longest river freight-barge 1t is bet
ter that the 800 feet should be cor
rectly designed, properly constructed
and suuipped, than that greater
length should be only partially COM
pleted, which would produce lasting
dissatisfaction of the shippers and con-
signees. In this S00-foot unit, the
shed may be made longer than given,
and wider il th5 land will permit, ane1
there can result a changing OF the
proportions of space herein allotted.
Should there be sufficient room the.
railway tracks betwesn the shed anos
the river may be added, ma.ding three
tracks, and the arrangement of the
rear tracks may be altered. Front
tracks on quay wallis ara necessary
to increase the speed Of outbouno
freight transference and to obtain
the lowest handling costs.
Llneal Foot Tonnage Capacity.
1t Is not expected that 300 feet will
J he sufficient for water frontage, as
that length will have lineal trans
| ferring capacity, during the seven
open months, OF from 10000 to 45,00u
tons, or from 100 to $50 tons Pc.
lineal foot The next unit should be
300 feet more, extending along the
levee, and each increase should b,e an
additional 300 feet, with shed and
equipment. For an ocean freight ter
minal similar unit length would be
900 feet.
/ The Unit Plan.
! BY having comprehensive plan In
the beginning, the ultimate expense
will be less, all working parts will be
Interchangeable, and the machinery
consisting of a number of the cranes
and transferring machinery, can be
concentrated for quick loading OF
discharging service at any one unit
II there should be limited appro
/ priation available for the terminal
the first 800 feet should be completed
In every respect, and then the secont
i unit can be added and equipped from
a later appropriation. One thus com
pletely equipped unit will be equal ir
4 capacity to two or even three units
not so equipped
Three Types Of Terminal Units.
Thers are, however, three types o
these 300-foot units differing in frs
cost, according to transferring ant
holding capacity, and the characte
OF the installation.
