Mr Duane, with many other real estate men who indorse his proposition, believes that the utilization of this admirable site by the city would mean an Immediate raising of the value of land, not only in Park sq, but along Boylston St. Columbus av. Eliot et, Pleasant at, Ferdinand. Isabella and adjoining thoroughfares. He thinks that the influence of the city's intelligent administration of this idle tract of railroad property would be felt throughout that section of the city, and is sure that the extent of the increase in the assessments would be surprising.

The former street commissioner points to the result of the construction of the south terminal station. the widening of Cove St to the now termed Atlantic av, the widening and improvement of Sum sessors by the condition of I roperty there has been pointed out. Atrainst this situation contrast that of the rapil increase In the taxable property near the terminal station. which Immediately followed the heavy investment of the city In permanent improvements in that district. A short section of each street into Dewey sq was taken for comparison with the showing of Park sq land.

On AtPantic ay. High and Purchase sts. only those estates next to the lots On the corner of Federal Ft or Dewey tog were considered, although the influence of the city's reconstruction of the streets of that section extended further. Hardly going more than a stone's throw from Dewey sq the assessors books show on increase of t4.1S6.4)0 in the value of this land since the eity out the new streets and cortributed to the terminal station improvement In 1896, when the tcrminal plan was proposed, the land within the narrow radius of Dewey Sq was valued. in the aggregate, at $.5476.700.

while last year the assessment was $9.363,100. This is an increase of over St percent. Summer at, on both sides, from King would be eomewhat similar- With the city buildings located in Park sq. lot Pt would be tail as Federal is now by the people of one part tf the business rection. With an impetus given to Eliot st by the adoption of the pInn for the Parksq Improvement that thoroughfare might vie with Federal it In the Increase in the amount of taxable property.

As it is now. Federal it has the Opportunity for enhanced values. while Eliot at is deemed this year to be en-1 titled to a further cut-down of its real, estate valuation. Dewey sq. with its increase of 11.71-l.litt) In land values within a ethort time cuts a very prosperous figure beside Park sq.

with its decrease. including the lots on Boylston et which run through to the square. of nearly $300,000 in one year. The on. has Its broad tributary avenues and costly buildings to add to Its value.

ANDERSON. LIVERPOOL. May 25A tour of the Liverpool docks might well begin at the northern section of the estate, where the great transatlantic linersboats of the Cunard, White Star, Leyland, Dotainion. Warren, Allan, Johnston, Beaver other companieshave their berths.

Some of these lines bring in large numbers of cattle, but these are discharged at the Birkenhead a term not so familiar on our side of the vater as on this. lt is down here, where the channel is deeper and the docks more commodious, that the bulk of the transatlantic tratfic Is handled. The steamers of the four different Boston linesthe Dominion, Cunard, Leyland and Warrenhave all very convenient berths, but perhaps the best equipped line in this respect is the White Star line. The newer Boston steamers, like the Cotnmonwealth, the Saxonia and Ivernia and the Devonian and Winifredian, compare very favorably with those running to other places, but their commanders occasionally do use some very strenuous language whert the subject of Boston hathor is under discussion. For one thing, nearly every time one of these great ships enters or leaves our harbor it i3 necessary for them to Lave the escort of the police boat, in orier that some httle rei-ton fishing smack may be chased 4-ut of the way and thus prott the big liner from possible grounling.

There is little trouble from this sort of thing in the Mersey, although there are times when big shi, do not have all the water they require, in spite of oil the Inneirts of thousanas ot dollars t'nit have been spent cm dredging. It truly wonderful the amcont of that cog be stowed away in one of these big Bosten-Liverrool steamerti. as a type, the one la which I catrr over, the new Commonwealth. Vids ship is feet long, 55 feet beam and has a draft of 30.5 feet loaded. her gross tonnage and she ougies a erew of 2011.

From the time one of these big eastbound vessels arrives at the Mersey bar until she has docked, discharged, loaded and reached the bar on her outward voyage again. she is directly under the jurisdiction of the Mersey docks and harbor board. The pilot which she takes on at Holyhead is under license from the board. the telegraph which reports her arrival there belongs to the board. the bar over which she passes is dredged by it, the river is lighted and buoyed by it.

In short, the dock board Is the alpha and omega of about everything in connection with the shipping of Liverpool and its vielnity. It has its own police force. Its own light-house department. its own fleet of dredgers and "fiats" and towboats. and its own dock railway system.

The latter aggregates (including the high level coal railway) 2S14 miles On the Liverpool side and 44 miles in Birkenhead. There is a fine elevated electric railway running the whole length of the docks, just outside the estate, from which an excellent general view of the system may be had, but this is conducted by an outside corporation. and is, I understand, a very profitable Investment. PaSSfstigerFty to or from London and ether outside places. have only to walk a few stens from the Riverside railway station near the landing stage.

Special trains are made up to connect with the big New York liners, but the bulk of the freight for transportation out of the city must be carted to the termini of the different railways. This is done by independent teaming concerns, but, like the loading and unloading, is performed under the direction of the board. The loading of ships is performed by a master stevedore, and the discharging by a master lumper. so-called. These are licensed be the dock board and hire their own men.

the steamship companies having to bear all the expense of loading or unloading. The responsii)ility for the merchandise after it is landed on the quay rests with the master porter, as he is called. This official is licensed by the board and elaced under bonds. and no goods can be carted away without his permission. The companies are allowed to keep merchandise on the quays for 72 hours, after which a penalty rental Is exacted.

The revenue from this source is not very large, however, as the consignees are usually anxious to get possession of their goods. The different rules and regulations of Tot ale $3.170.7.00 19.343.14 $.16.4,1,0 1 The sweeping raise of and values In and about Dewey fq is a strong argument in the recognition of the value of neglected and deserted Park sq. As Instances of the deplorable falling off In the land assessments In and near Park sq tell a story0 so single estates in and near Dev'ey sq show the other sidewhat might be done for the revival of activity in the older square. Here is the land on which the hotel Thorndike stands, dropped from $411,00 to S450.00a in a year, yet a corner with a view across the Common and Public Garden which will never be cut off. There is the land on Atlantic ay.

between Essex and East sts, occupied by the hotel Essex. Before the terminal station was projected a part of this parcel was assessed at ILI and another part at $la a foot, an aggregate assessment of SS6.00. Now that piece of land is considered by the assessors to be worth $30 a foot and the city is collecting taxes on S331.3o) for the land alone. It made a clean jump of when the city paid out something for improvements In connection with the terminal station. The opposite corner of East St and Atlantic av has risen from to $259.70.

or an advance of $151.500. $10.1:0 more for every foot of land. The easterly corner of Boylston et and Park sq In one year deereascd In sten and Otis sts to Feleral st. shows a substantial Increase. While In 1896 the values graduated lower according to the distance from 'Washington et now they are Increased In proportion to the nearness to Dewey Sq.

On the section of Summer st named the land jumped from an aggregate of $2,973.600 in 1896 to in 1900, an increase of 61,998,600, or more than 69 percent. Against this Is the decrease on a short section of Boylston et of 7 percent In a year. In Dewey sq the city was found to be richer by $1,725,900 in the value of land than it was befare the reconstruction that center. While the lots in the square In 1896 aggregated an assessment of $1.203.800, in 19)0 the money expended In improvements there had swelled the value to $2,928,700. Federal at.

whieh has been charactetIzed as having been slow to feel the effect of the terminal station. is proportionately well up. That section between Matthews st and Federal et and the square increased in land valuations from $999,300 to $1,461,200 a raise of 900. st mt.tht be an illustratien of what the probabb! effeet of the location of the city hall In Park sq would be on Eliot st, since their relative positions mer-st extension as an example of what might be expected of Park Kt if a new city ball were built there. Ile considers Park sq a much more promising district as a basis for such Improvement as would increase the amount of taxable property than was the vicinity of the terminal station when that plan was proposed.

To commence with he says there Is everythMg in its favor, as preparing for the new citY buildings and laying out the old railroad, yards for improvement will not mean the tearing down or the destruction of existing property of any account. It will be a work of construction from the start. The extension of Arlington st, which he proposes, will cut through the old passenger station. which could not be put to any use. The new street parallel with Providence st.

which would bisect the old railroad yard land, would be a simple matter as there are no obstructions. The only disturbance in the district would be the removing of three buildings on Boylston at to direct the 80-foot Arlinton-at extension to Columbus ay. As to the result of this great work. The decline of land in the immediate vicinity of Park sq. about $400.000 in one year, and the promise of still further reductions being forced upon the as Changes of Lines.

The management of the Boman elevated railway tompany has issued the following statement regarding the change to go into effect liontloy morn In, on the opening of the sold to public travel: AU surface care from the northern suburbs now entering Boston through Sullivan sq. Charlestown will be run toy inclines to the upper level of Sullivansq terminal station at which point passengers will leave these sullace cars and transfer at tho same level to the elevated trains. which will leave thts 'Winn for Dudley set. Roxbury. on Pebedule of very short Intervals.

and will enable passengers to reach the heart of the city from Sallivan sq in one-half of the time now taken. Tre present nion-sq line. running via naehington arid Summer sts to the south etatton. will continuo. but with the completion of the new bridge on Cambridge irharloelown.

At the Dudley-et terminal Po-lines are also provided. and ears from all the different thorouchfaresby which this paint is reached from the itouth will be run to the upper level at thin station, where transfer can conveniently be made, to the elevated trains 13 this will be rlielel a new. Lite of cars front Jamaica Plain by way of Eli 3t sq. and later, orebably, line from Brookline. Another illustration of the Increase a Values is Summer M.

at the corner of Dewey sq.

(IN IIALF-TIDE DOCK, LIVERPOOL DOC wELLINGT 35 percent of the total cattle exported from the country. and has some of the best cattle-carrying steamers afloat. So well equipped are they for this purpose. and so carefully are the animals looked after, that the percentage of loss during the voyage Is only about 1 in 1000. This good showing is largely due to the efforts of the bureau of animal industry.

which took the business 11 hand about 10 years ago. and now has its agents at all the principal ports of export and arrival. The officials of the bureau take charge of the cattle as soon as they arrive In Boston. and they are constantly under their espionaze until the steamer sails. The inspectors of the bureau station at the foreign ports to which the cattle are consigned are notified of the intended shipments.

and they, in turn. report back as to the condition of the cattle on arrival. The Cunard. DOMIT11011. Leyland and Warren lines all carry cattle to Liverrool from Boston.

the Furness line to London, be mpstc lin, to the Wilson line to Deptford and the Allan line to Glasgow. The largest number are shipped to Liverpool. and after that comes London. Glasgow and Bristol. The cattle come mostly from Indiana.

Ohio and Nebraska. and sometimes from as far west as Colorado. The following table shows the shipments from Boston for the last five years. the figures having been furnished roe by the Boston officials of the national bureau.

Just at present the board of ofil71tt1a have a big lot of improvement work either under way Or projected added to their troubles. In this th'e engineering departntent, which hist year expended over $1.060.000, is chiefly interested.

New doens are being built and old ones diecontinued narrow locks are being widened. and a new building for the beard Is contempleted. Dredging le going on all the time. from the bar right up to the southerly end of the docks, and an enormous amount of money has been expended up to date la this work. The board owns a fleet of very powerful dredgers.

including both the bucket and the section type, the finest of their kind ever built. In addition to the special warehouse already mentioned there are some 29 others. but the great bulk of the goods received at the docks goes into private warehouses. The sheds and storehouses with whieh the queys are equipped have a total floor area of BIN. acres.

and they inclutie 24 acres of double story inclosed warchouses. These latter are considered the best where the quay space is limited. but where there is plenty of room the single story sheds ere favored. Among the special points of interest on the Liverpool side is the great petroleam depot at the Herculaneum docks. Here have been constructed tiu separate fireproof magazines.

dug out of the solid rock. with a total capacity of 0,000 barrels. To the south of these are live immense tanks of a total capacity of 12.500 tons of petroleum. They are each surrounded by a moat deep enough to contain all the oil in the tank in case it should break. It is near this point that the tank steamers and other oil-laden vessels come to discharge their cargoes.

Over on the Birkenhead side. where the four-masters front Australia and the Indies raise their tall spars. is situated the great cattle depot of Liverpool. in which Boston bas a special interest. As is well known, Boston is the leading cattle-exportmg tenter of the United States, having forged ahead of New York in 1897, and leaving.
