Movement Toward Supplying Hie Need is Started. PROMOTERS WILL HCl AT ONCE Lack of Landing Place for Launcher. ? Might Materially Injure City's Business During the Jamestown Exposition. Several well known local business men have started a movement look? ing toward the erection on thewnter fronl between Twenty-fourth ami Twenty-11 fth .street, of a small pier for the aeconiodiit ion of the launches belonging to the scores of American am! foreign war.-hips that will an ohpr in Hampton (loads ami .lame.; River during tho Jamestown oxpi.-j tition ami the numerous pleasure' cvafl that will come here while tlr ' great tercentennial is in progress.! The iiotnoters of the scheme ,nc ftso 10 bring the matter at <v_c? tu the attention of tho Cham ? of. Commerce, the Merchants' A. ??.?ra? tion and the otflcials of tho Did ! ? n Ii..on Land Company and . j express themselves as being con? fident that their efforts will be j crowned with success. At present there, is no adequate ac miodation at U1I3 port for the landing of launches ami other sinai pleasure craft. The small pier nearj the Chesapeake & Ohio depot, which government launches have been us? ing In tho past, will hardly afford irMontodation for the numerous launches thai local Btilpchandlcrs and merchants will employ to carry . provisions ami merchandise to war- , ship:/ ami other craft in Hampton! Roads ami Hie local harbor. It is pointed out that a small pier] could be constructed at a compara? tively small cost and would, ii i-; believed, bring a great deal of business to Newport News that j would otherwise divert to NorfOtK and Portsmouth. .Most of the warships that w::i participate in tho grand naval re? view Incident to the exposition will anchor in I lie harbor hero, there being not sufficient anchorage room for them in Hampton Roads, and with propei- accomodal ions for their launchen hundreds of their officers] an dscniiicn would spend their mon? ey in Newpor News instead of go-, lag to Norfolk. The men behind the movement to] erect tho wharf have planned for' the construction of a double pier near ?ho Casino pleasure whark I Such a pier would give ample ac comodat ions for fifteen or twenty j launches at one time. xJLSJULpjLpjlsL?JL^^ Marine Notes ** iLOJLilJLSJLOJL^OJLg-Q SJLilJLOJULg-g Wednesday, January 9, 1907.
