In ipply to Mi- [lcpbum, Me Mavcbnnt I eu d that it was iulondod to put tbo wu'o | trnpa on tho Rinyno only. Thorn wiih I

little to bo gained by putting thorn on tho broukwater. Ho boliovod that this would bo no i IToolivo means of overcoming tho present ddliculty. Mr Whinrny did not thirds that this would overcome the trouble. Ho could not eco how it could stay tho proeont wavo notion. Ho Biiggosltd an alteration in tho present western wall to provont tho sand from coming into tho rivor, Mr Marohanli replied that tho work suggested by Mr Whinrny would bo ovon moro oxpnuiivo than an ( xtonnion of tbo breakwater.

Tbn Chairman said Unit tho Bool'd desired somo tpuipiriiry remedy in ortfc to oopo with tho rui'go at tiio ontnuioo of tlio river, Tho representative deputation that morning nhcwnl tho Board that something should bo dor.o. Mr Merchant raid that for more than 000 ronton hr> urged Ibo nreousity of tin 1 woik proponed. Ho did not press for tho .extension of tbn breakwater, becauso ho felt that if an outer harbor scheme woio | ontovtaiued tho £IO,OOO epont on tho oxtonßion of tho breakwater would to a great rxtent bo wasted. Tho exti lision of tho breakwater would, in his opinion, bo an cfleotivn meant) of ovoi coming the prosont dilliontty in tho channel, but in viow of tho increased shipping in the port ho did not droui it judicious, Mr Ma'.thowson heartily supported the proposals luid down by Mr Merchant. Lie considered tho tiuio was ripo for tho

district to go in fot' nu outside harbor, Mr Clink eaid ihoy would Cnd they would get eboupor ligbterago from tbo present system than thoy would get from an inner harbor. Mt Siovwiigbt moved that Mr Mnrchant's nccmmcndiitiou in regard to tbo wavo traps on tbo groyno b- given i lftct to. Tbo oxpensu was very trilling, ond it was nn pi.sy means cl gciting over the piPHin t didicuUy, Mr Harding : I take it that tbooogiueor does not approve ol uu extension of tbo break? ator, Mr Marchant: I think that is tbo only pllective mrthod cf getting over the dillieu'ty, but I do not suggest it until wo have tried tbo tlloot of tbo wave traps. If tbo Board decides to tutor into an outer harbor eohcino the extension of the breakwater would bo of no ndnu-t<go. Mr Kiev wr'gbt: Our bai borenaetsr hao boon aupgoeting tlo adoption of forroconeicto piles r.t the end of tho breakwater. Would they be ill.ctivo '! Mr Marohant: No, thoy would be of no olltct w h stover. You want something in th.i nature of a eoiid s-truetuio. YIU want io do sornr thing that you can uetually swiar by. I strongly advise you to try the oiurao I have suggested. It can do no barm, and it will ussuro tbo groatett safety to shipping Of ooursa the extension of tho breakwator is tbo obvious remedy. In answer to Captain Tucker Mr Merchant uas strongly in opposition to any ioteiferoneo with the presont groyne. Nothing oould be gained by making a gap in tbo wall. Tho rrporc of tho Eogineor in regard to tho adoption of wave traps os a temporary r tuedy was agrotd upon, Mr Whmray ft'ono objecting. Mr Merchant expressed tbo opinion that tho Booid should take steps to provent > ny shingle being rouiQvod from tho Kaiti braob, aud it was agroed to again post a nc t'o prohibiting any being removed. Mr Sievwright considered tho Board should take steps informa ion in rogaid to an outer harbor Bcheme. He had no desire to “ pump ” Mr Marchaut, but be deemed it expodiont on the part of t o Board to do something in this direo tiro. Tho largo and representative deputation received that morning made Ibis all tho more ncecs : ary. Ho moved a motion in tbo direction indicated, Mr Matthcwson houHy supported tbp propesa 1 , as also dirt Mr Whinray.

Me Clark expressed himself in favor of tho proposal providing eortain modifications wore agreo3 upon. Ho desired to eo tho Engineer have an absolutely free hand in the matter, and repost upon wbat he considered the best haibor for Giaberue, leaving it for thu district afterwards to say who'ber they could or could cot afford it. He wanted to see no Bpproxiuvito estimate, but a c .rofully detailed plan laid bcfoio tho Board, After further di-cussion tho motion was unanimously adoptod. It was decided t.) pay Mr Marchant tbo sum of L‘2oo, bn fee for tie woik dready ontcred upon, also toaecspt bis oiler of LGQO to report in regard to an outer harbor scheme, tho lafctor to include the preparations of plans and specifications.
