1 Sir The series of articles on the river, harbor and port of Philadelphia,
which I understand tho Kvi'KtNti Li.ntiKii i 1 r w preparing to publish, are
timely nnd in tho public interest. 1 lipie ihnt to thus bring bcfoic our
.citizens the advantages of our port and th facilities which It offers for the
"economic and expeditious handling of ore:in cargoes will do much -to develop
nil Interest in thi port nnd the encouragement o." its usp by our manufacturers,
tt is hoped that these nrticlcs will bring more fully to tho attention of
our niaiiufaettiiers nnd producers viho importance of arranging their ship
ments when making contracts for deliveries to foreign countries so tlint their
produrts will bo shipped through Philadelphia.
An examination of the facilities which this port offers, including direct
connection with the piers from nil railroad lines, will show that it possesses
advantages superior to those of almost any other port on the Atlantic coast
and thnt tho cost of shipment through it is less than through nny other.
Tho lSviiNtNO LfJinni! ii to be highly commended for Ur great Interest
in the development of the port of Philadelphia and its efforts to create a
greater civic pride among our citizens. Yours truly,

A representative of the Janner A Bttr

them, even llumsli the matket Is not over
stocked. Itobert II. I'ocnlerer, president ot tho
Robert If. Koerderer Company, Wheatsheaf

thought it possible to make shoes from fish
skins.
"Nobody has ever made any study ot

that the prnress would be so expensive that
It would not be pr.11 llcablc There nr cer
