A project tor the construction of a ferry line which will cross the Missouri river at the foot of Mis souri avenue, was presented to A. F. Stryker, secretary of the Stock exchange, by Edward Townsend, who is at the Howard hotel. Mr. Townsend, an experienced ferry operator, proposes to con struct a "cable ferry." which he says is of the most practical type. He is ready to begin work at once, and promises that his ferry line will be in operation in a short time. It is pointed out that over 25 miles in the transporation of live stock to the South Side market will be cut off by the proposed ferry line. Crossing the river at Missouri av enue, the line taps one of the great est hog raising regions in the state of Iowa. Stock from this section is now brought to the South Side mar ket by way of the Douglas street bridge, a most roundabout route. "We are awake to the possibilities of the project," declared Mr. Stryk er, "and it will be submitted to the executive committee of the ex change. I can't help but think, how ever, of our last ferry project a number of years ago. Almost every one who was connected with the ex change had shares in it. We even bought a boat and were ready for action. Due to . natural obstacles, however, it proved a failure. The last we saw of our ferry line the boat was floating down the river in the general direction of the Gulf of Mexico." Mr. Stryker calls attention to the Missouri avenue hill, which is a steep grade. The street is unpaved, and is said to be unpractical for heavy hauling during at least nine months of the year. This is thought to be one of the main obstacles to the project.
