Galvehtojj, Jjlily 0.—Major A.
M. Miller, IJi/itijiI f^latea engi-
neer in ohari|e of - the government
improveuiont of Galvesloit. hurbor,
completed bis nnunal report to tbo
chief engineer of the United States
army to-day, atfd the dperrme^t-
wns forwarded to Waahirtf;ton.
Official cflortosy ' forbids Major
Miller’making tho report public
before its submission to the chief
engifieer/but a News reporter was
givep the following brief syhopsia
of its contents:
/intranet) to GalveBton harbor,
Teias-rXho obstructions to da»i5
Water navigation at tho harbor
have been tbs outer and inner
bars. On the former the natural
I depth was 12 feet and oirtlio lut-
ter about 13 fe^t, both at mean low
tide.. The present project for im-
provement at this locality was
adopted in 1864, modified in 1880
and again modified in 1886, tho
object being to deepen! the chan-
•npls so as to admit vessels of the
deepest draft. The projects prior
to 1874 delated to dredging opera-
lion on alsmall scale; the projects
f 1874 ohd lg80 contemplated the
constrinmon of jetties to deepen
the channels ou the bars, the for-
mer with a view to a depth of 18
feet. .The modification of 1886
was with a view to a possible
depth of 30 feet by means of jet-
ties, to be supplemented if need
be by dredging. These jetties to
be of rock and to be built to a
height of five feet abovte-idejm low
tide. "
The cost of the modification of
1886,,the present project’,/was esti-
mated at ’ $7,000,000. The total
amotfiit expended under tho fore-
goiug plans to Juu(* 30^1893, was
51,669,639.^2; in addition to which
there w is expended $100,000, sub-
scribed by tho city of Galveston
in 1883. There was than a'depth
at mean low tide of 14 feet ou (he
outer bar and 23 feef whore the
inner bar was, an increase of 2
feet and 10 feet tospndtively siuce
work began. Tb^ expenditure
during the .fiscal year ending June
30,1894, of $1,008,824.68 has re-
sulted in otyliaiuiug 14 5 feet on
the pater bar paid 24^ feet where
the 'itiner bur was, ait increase in
depthlof half a foot and IJ feot re-
epefctively iiime lust year. r x
Tlio work during tho Inal year
consisted in extending'the north
jetty gulfward 12,600 feet,of which
8500 feet was completed. The to.
tal work done since operations be-
gan in 1887 ill represented by 32,-
829 feet of soyith js^ty «f which
32,000 feet is completed and 829
feet uncompleted, and 16,200 feet
of north jetty, of Which 10,000 is
completed and 6200 feot iincbm-
pletod. Daring the fiscal year
just closed 235,197 tons of riprap
aud 101,7^2 tons of granit^ blocks
were pptjiHo the-jetty work.'- ’ ’
Questioned as to whether or not
the results of last year’s work ful-
filled the expectations of the en-
gineering department Major Mil-’
ler said that (t ’had never been
contemplated that one jelly would
accomplish thc desired results.
The project demanded imperative-
ly two. The seooud oi^sorth petty
has just reached n point to make
its jinllucocB felt, and from now
•henoeforth it is confidently expect-
ed that results will accrue more'
rapidly than in the past. A bill
-is now before congress to appro
priatg $100,000 to build a dredge’
for see at this barter.
It is expected that the work of
the dredgopwiU materially hasten
the w,^r.k ut. the jellies. In all
works of this kind -the aid, of a
dredge has been found necessary.
At any time a storm might shift,

which it would lake the jetties

Populist CbuHty Convention,
The populist county convention
was of such importance that th
Sandwich detailed a special re-
porter for the occasiop. . *
It met iu the .front part of the
day, and'’ Mr. Eel G. Smith (of the
well Jtnown Smith family) was
fleeted chaitman. Mr. Smith has
lieen nn no<lertaker for years, and
of coarse was well qualified for'
the.poeition, bat it was soon plain
tlmt hn-mnsiderea it the biggest
job he ever undertook.

chair.
As there were thirteen of him,
.of ’course there was some con fu-
sion when“ thq- chairman said:
“Mb Jones has the floor.”/-
Thstantly .thirteen voices vary,
ing from a piping treble to a thor-
ough “base” mingled in an uproar
of motions.
This is what the Sandwich man
gleaned of Mr. Jones’ motion:
“Resolved, that we motion do
n,S
ones get up to address the

resolute a disco&ttlruai
? —JI-4—1! ?• deficiency of the demo-
cratic puss 1-dad blaqie! surplus al-
so to resolute the 48 billion sex-
tillion $ per cent hickory shirts.”
Here the Sandwich man got
off the track and had to get some
ice water.
However, the motion was sec-
onded and carried.
The convention moved along
smoothly for an hoar, during
which time it indorsed the action,
of Jerry Simpson in buying a pair
of socks. The delegates were all
full of enthusiasm, at least that
is what the secretary told the
Saildwich nian,, he at first suppos-
ing by the smell of some of tiyoir

Col. Hi Yokel being nrqplr fa*
tigued sank into a profound slum-
ber, and/,, presently a' large aud
epoctacujar suore issued from bis
nostril^. Instantly a dozen mem-
,bers jiimpod up and yelled: “Sec-

made a tellfbg speech in Tavor of
it. v
Mr. J. VV. T. Lqe got up to ex-
plain, but Ool. Payne yelled “lay
Loe,” whereupon Mr. Loo retorted
“oh for a Payne killer,” and sat
down.
The convention will laugh next
fitneetiog when they have dia-
grammed Messrs. Loe and Payne’s
witticism. Col. Payne concluded,
aud the geutlefnan who bad been
asleep awoke with a snort, and
bounding to his feet exclaimed
that the country was going to
ruin on aoconnt of the democratic
party and the goldbugs of Wall
street.
Here is an extract from his elo-
quent speech *
