TO REMOVE OLD PILING.

The Orleans Levee Board has
been requested by the L. s. Army
Engineers to remove certain old pill
ing and other wreckage at the Al
giers Ferry cave which forms an OBJ
struction TO the placing of mat
tresses at this point, the work OF
which the Government contemplates
beginning within a few days.
The early action I'm the matter is
partly the results of the efforts of
Mr.. {. J. Bonner, secretary OF the
Orleans Levee Board. on his recent
trip 10 Washington, D. C.. as a dele
gate 10 the National Rivers and Har-
bors Congress. at whichtime he
found it convenient TO appear before
the Chief of Engineers in the inter
est of this matter. which is of such
vital importance to Algiers.
The following letter is received in
connection with this work:
December p, 1920.
From: The District Engineer, Fourth
Mississippi River District.
To: The President, Orleans Levee
Board, New Court Bldg, New Or
leans, La.
Subject: Removal OF old piling at
Algiers Point.
Dear Sir
In connection with the proposed
bank revetment work at Algiers
Point, New Orleans Harbor, about
TO be undertaken by the United
States. / have to inform you that
the old piling where wrecked, forms
serious obstruction TO the proper
placing of mattress work.
l would therefore request that il
practicable, the Orleans Levee Board
have the old piling and any other
wreckage removed. Where the pile
work has not been wrecked by cav.
ing. its removal will not be neces.
sary at this time.
AS active operations will be com.
menced in a few days, the matter OF
removing the piling should not be
delayed.
Very respectfully.

WILL MEET THIS AFTERNOON.

The mOtOrmen and conductors EN-
plOyed on the Algiers and Gretna
street cars are meeting Thursday af-
ternoOn to consider matters in con-
nection with the strike and there is
some probability of the street car
traffic being resumed shortly. The
representatives of the union and
Manager Burgis of the car lines held
a conference, but nothing was given
out. save that the men would meet
Thursday. Both sides appear to be
in a cOnciliatory mood and hope is
running high that the present situa-
ton will be resumed by the men re-
turning to work under improved con-
ditions.
