An inspection of Hell Gate made r

An inspection of Hell Gate made re- gently by the committee of congress on rivers and harbors reveals, or rather calls to mind, the fact that as it now stands superdreadnoughts could not enter or leave New York by way of that channel. The risk of the passage is today prohibitive for such Jig ships. Forty years ago, on Sunday, the 24th day of September, 1876, the great blast in the old Hell Gate rocks was set off, which cleared that channel for the largest ships of that date. The clear ing up left an ample channel, but ships have grown since then and now we need another blast that shall once more adapt the channel to the wants of war and commerce. Will congress see the point t?-Bridgeport Standard.

Ivan Mosher, who testified in the morning, was recalled to the witness stand at the opening of the afternoon session. He said his duties in port were to ride on engines to observe the qualifications of engineers. He had ridden in the egnines with Charles H. Mansfield and he considered him a first-class engineer. He always call ed aloud the signals and so far as he knew his habits were excellent.
 In examination by MT. Phillips the witness said that other engineers he had rode with observed the rules, but in all cases they were not as care ful as MT. Mansfield. He meant that all engineers observe the rule while he was with them, but that he could dis cern whether the action was regular as by reason of his presence. He could check an engineer whose custom it was not to call the signals regular ly. He did not know what an en- gineer did when witness was present, but he could readily check up wheth- CT the calling of signals was mechan- ical Did you personally see the gravity box at Canton Junction that had been kicked to secure an unlock, by not getting an unlock from the station in advance?"s asked Mir F'itz- gerald.
