DAOPS ALL WORK ON THE CHANNEL Dredging of Deep Way to Mare Island Yard IsStopped. Contractor Takes His Plant Away After Much Ex- cavating. The work of dredging through the shoal | in San Pablo Bay to pruvide for a deep | water Yard has come to a sudden stop. Rudoif | the contractor who was making the much necded channel for the Govern- ment, has withdrawn his dredging plant, and there is nothing doing on the flat at this time. Colonel Heuer, United States engincer, has communicated with Mr. | Axman, but has received no definite as- surance whether the work will again pro- | ceed under the Axman contract The Government is entitled to declare the contract forfeited under the adver- tised terms for the work, but has not yet made any move in that direction. Axman is In the position of having performed a great amount of work for which he has not received any money. Unless he con- cludes to go ahead he will not get any money. The contract price for doing the work was $268,000. One clause in the contract provided that progress must be made at the minimum rate of 100,00 cubic yards of dredged material per month to entitle the contractor to payments. Axman be- gan upon the job about four months ago. According to the estimates of the Govern- ment engineers the total amount of ma- terial dredged out In that entire period is less than 100,000 cubic cards, or 300,000 cubic yards short of what Is necessary to | give Axman any pay. The withdrawal of the dredger at this time will make it harder to perform up to the monthly average, dating from the time of begin- ning, than it was before the interruption. To catch up it will be necessary to put on several dredgers, so engineers say. The contract calls for the improvement of San Pablo Bay by constructing a chan- nel between the Straits of Carquines and the Golden Gate, off Point Pinole, Point Wiison and Lone Tree Point, 300 feet wide and thirty feet deep. The shoal to be dredged is about five miles in length and bas a depth of nineteen feet at low water. ‘The mud removed from the bottom must be deposited as near the south shore line as possible and impounded behind bulk- heads or dykes of suitable construction, the dykes to be made by the contractor. | size and price, and let it go at that.

While Ax- | man was not progressing at the average monthly rate provided for in the contract | he proceeded steadily until in a spell of bad weather a large portion of his dyke was carried away by the action of the waves.
