CHANNEL DREDGE WORK
PROGRESSING FAVORABLY
Dewey and Dalecarlia Pumping
Many Cubic Yards Of Material.
Cape May Outfit Coming.

Dredging work on the Georgetown
channel. on which the dredge Dewey
has been employed for several weeks
past, is progressing favorably. and to-
day the big dredge was working at
point about three-quarters OF mile
above the Highway bridge. and was
humping the excavated material upon
the lowlands on the Virginia side OF
the river under the hills of Arlington.
II is estimated the Dewey has about
completed the digging of a little over
a quarter of the total amount to he ex-
cayated. SO that 1t will be several
mouths before she completes her con-
tract and leaves twenty-one feet OF
water in the channel from the High
way bridge to the Georgetown wharves.
The engineer service dredge D@lecar-
liza continues to do good work on the
Anacostia river improvements above
the Anacostia bridge, and each week Is
getting out and pumping ashore many
thousand cubic yards OF material.
The Cape Mey Dredging Company.
which has a contract for Improving the
Anacostia river in the vicinity of the
navy yard. has not yet notified the en-
gineers' office as to when 1t will bring
its dredging plant here. 1t Is stated
that the time limit under the contract
in which work must be started has
nearly expired. so that the arrival Of
the Cape Nav Company's dredge and
