This was 367 tons greater than the cargo carried in 1912 and 929 tons greater than the average cargo carried in 1911, doubtless due to more favorable stages of water. It is, however, 218 tons less than the average cargo carried during 1908. It will be recalled that the season of 1908 was an extremely poor one and a few of the smaller vessels were placed in commission, which accounts for the large average cargo of that year. It can be seen, however, that that figure is being rapidly overtaken and may be passed in 1914. Follow- ing are the average cargoes for the past 19 years: Gross - Gross Year, tons. Year. tons.

Wetmore, vice president and treasurer of the American Ship Building Co., at his home in Cleve- land on Luesday evening; Jan. 20, came as a profound shock to vessel interests in general. Few~- knew, that he was ill and none regarded his ill- ness as serious. He went home from his office on the preceding Wednes- day in perfect health, but on Thurs- day was seized with a chill which developed into pneumonia. He ap- peared to: be surmounting the attack, however, because on Tuesday after- noon he sent for his secretary to ar- range some business matters. Five hours later he died. No one could come in contact with Mr. Wetmore without being sensible of the charm of his personality. He was a gentleman and his breeding . Showed itself in everything that he said or did. He had been identified directly and indirectly with lake in- terests all his life. As a boy he went to Marquette and was familiar with the ore-producing properties which form so large a part of lake trade. His one diversion from the lakes was when he entered the employ of the Chicago Telephone Co. as _ secretary and treasurer. He later identified himself with the American Steel Barge Co., and when this company was tak- en over by the Superior Ship Building Co., Mr. Wetmore went with it, and when the Superior Ship Building Co. . February, 1914 consolidated with the American Ship Building Co. in 1899, Mr. Wetmore was made secretary and treasurer of the American Ship Building Co. Two years ago he was elevated to the vice presidency, still retaining the treasur- ership. Mr. Wetmore was a director of the National Commercial Bank and a member of the Union, Country and Mayfield Clubs. He was also active in the affairs of St. Paul's Episcopal church. He leaves a widow and qa daughter, Mrs. Arthur C. Brooks. The late James Howden, of forced draft fame, had a notable career. He possessed a highly original mind. He made compound engines and water- tube boilers as far back as 1859 with a pressure of 100 pounds, when the accepted engines were single cylinder with a pressure of 25 lbs. He pre- pared designs for a triple-expansion engine using steam at 150 to 200 Ibs. pressure, but as he did not actually manufacture them, he is not regarded as the inventor. He began his investi- gations into the problem of forced draft in 1862, and continued them un- til the early '80's, at last perfecting the system now associated with his name. Mr. Howden.was never better pleased than when- he was probing some baffling engineering problem, and he had a genius for inventing, de- veloping and improving mechanical apphances. Caleb. Emory Gowen, one of the founders of the Kelley Island Lime & Transport Co., and long identified with various constructive enterprises at Cleveland, died on Jan. 8, of apoplexy, at the age of 58 years. J. W. Crowell, pioneer ship builder of California, and later engaged in the same industry in Cambridge, Md., died at Cambridge, Jan. 24, at the age of 82 vears. Thomas I. Windsor, general man- aeer of the Boston Tow Boat €o: died at Boston on Dec. 29. The ave Ellis Landing & Dock Co. engaged MHavaland, Dozier & Tibbetts at San Francisco to prepare specifications for bulkheading, dredg- ing and filling of 88 acres of land situated across the bay in Richmond facing the Golden Gate. A canal will be dredged 1,800 ft. long, 120 ft. wide and 20 ft. deep with a turning basin 186 ft. in diameter with wharves 58 ft. wide on each side of the entire length of the canal. If Captain William Connell and his wife, Agnes Jane Connell, will communicate with THe Marine RevIEWw a letter of interest will be forwarded to them.
