The Committee of the Senate, TO whom the
subject has been retired, have reported in favor
of the proposed Breah'cater at the mouth OF the
Delaware. The expense and difficulty of its con-
structon will be very great, but not perhaps; eS'
coed the proportionate benefits. A list has been
compiled at Philadelphia, in which the remark Is
made. that il contains but a minor exhibit OF the
appalling sutferings Of seamen, and the loss OF
property to individuals and the public, which arc
annually experienced on the coast in the yic'my
of the Delaware Bay for want of proper piacc
of shelter. Between the years 1910 and 1917
no less than one huatired md ainety.one cases Oh
shipwreck, loss and disaster. were occasloned os
vessels being driven out of the bay by storms
and ice. In very many of the cases cited, ah ''lo


individuals on board the vessels were lost' "
well as the property.
