ABANDON RIVER
JETTY PROJECT

The original plan for the extension OF
the Edge Moor jetty, down the Della
river to connect with an extension Of
the Christiana jetty. has been aban-
doned by the government. The original
lines would have proved a great men
ace 10 shipping moving in and out OF
the Christiana river, according to state
ments OF Wilson Line officers and other
local shipping interests. AS proposed,
the stone jetty would have made a
sharp curve and a narrower channel for
ships to navigate at the mouth OF the
Christiana.
The Board Of Harbor Commissioners
called a meeting last August. OF repre-
sentatives OF local shipping interests and
city oflcials, and represented the men
ace such a stone corner would become
at the mouth OF the creek. United
States Engineers Shuman and Warner,
Of the Philadelphia and Delaware dis
tricts, were present at this meeting.
This morning the Board Of Harbor
Commissioners received word both
from Washington and from L. ID. Shu-
man, u. s. engineer, Philadelphia Dis
trict, that the lines OF the jetty would
be changed so as to make the gradually
curving turn into the Christiana that
The Board OF Harbor Commissioners
has asked for.
u. S. Engineer Shuman wrote that
the couple Of loads OF rock already de-
posted along the originally planned
lines OF the jetty would do no harm to
shipping. Because Of a great hole in
the bed OF the Christiana, where the
loads were deposited, the rock does not
rome far enough above the bed so as TO
prevent an abundant excess Of water,
even at low tide.
Engineer Shuman also asked the
Board OF Harbor Commissioners to give
publicity TO the announcement that the
government will remove the buoy
placed at the 800 foot point, south on
the originally planned line OF the eX-
tension. There no longer will be any
reason for navigators TO avoid that
point, as the jetty will not be carried
along that line.
The Board Of Harbor Commissioners
expressed qualification that the exten-
sion was 10 be made In a way that
would not increase danger to local
shipping.
