Oppssed to Abslitioa of Bar Service, Bat - Weald Ds Away With River Law aid V; Reduce the Pees Special Meet log Held Yesterdsy. At a special called meeting of the Board of Commissioners of Navigaiton and Pilotage held yesterday at noon at the office of Messrs. .WUlard & Giles, on Princess street, the question of the abolition of compulsory, pilot age was very generally dfscussed 'as the result of which there was .a -crys-taUzstion of sentiment upon a reaolu Hon offered by Mr. O. W. Worth, amounting to a compromise between the extremes on both sides of the ques tion. All members of the Board were present, viz: Mr. James Sprunt, chsirman; Messrs. O. W. Worth.Ssm uel Northrop, M. 8. Willard, A. S; Heide, J. W.Oraig, S. F. Craig. There were also present Mr. James Kyle, clerk of the Board,and -Captain Edgar D. Williams, harbor master of the port. '. " '! Mr. Sprunt, the chairman, said that the meeting had been'.called at the re quest of several merchants and ship p;n who desired an expression of the views of members of the Board upon the subject of the contention between the Pilots' Association and the Cham ber of Commerce. .Mir. Sprunt said that personally he was not in favor of the abolition of compulsory pilotage, bat he, as a shipper and as a member of the Board, was strongly impreseed by the growing necessity of remedial eglslatlon with reference to certain Ir regularities which Indicated an Incom plete and unsatisfactory service. In order to prevent an Indefinite discus sioa he had requested several mem bers to prep'are written expressions of their views, which might be accepted, modified or rejected by the Board. 4 Mr. Worth presented a series of reso- utions. which he said embodied the opinions of several members of the Board, and which he hoped might be acceptable as a compromise between the extremes proposed by interested parties at previous discussions outside of this Board. After a discussion of nearly an hour and a halt the follow- ng was adopted, the Chairman and Commissioners J. W. Craig and 8. F. Craig dissenting to the first and sixth paragraphs: Wherbas: This Board of Commis sioners of Navigation and Pilotage of the port of Wilmington, has been re quested by certain merchants and oth ers, interested and engaged in the car rying trade and commerce of this port, to convey to our representatives In the General Assembly at Baleigh an ex pression of our view of the (Jape Fear Pilotage question, now under discus slon, It is hereby Resolved. First. That we are op posed at the present time Ito the abol ishment of compulsory bar pilotage, but favor the abolishment ot compul sory river pilotage on both coastwise and foreign vessels. Second. We ask for authority to license only such persons as pilots who may be found by this Board com petent and necessary for the com merce of the port Third. That we disapprove the pres ent incomplete and unsatisfactory service of bar pilots who wait ashore until Incoming vessels reach the bar before approaching such vessels, and we ask for power to enforce proper stations and cruising grounds under forfeiture of bar pilotage in case of default Fourth. That we disapprove of the present combination of Pilotage and Towage systems so far as in the find ing of this Board the combined ser vice tends to prejudice the Interests of Wilmington commerce. Fifth. That in view of the yearly increasing competition of Norfolk on the North and of Savannah on the South, In which our port Is at a disad vantage, we recommend .a reduction of present rates pf pliotsge to those in effect at Savannah. : - Sixth. That we favor the retention of that feature of the existing law per mitting masters of vessels to take out ariicense, and suggest that the fee-for the annual renewal of such license be fixed for each year by this board at such figure aB will raise the revenue reautred to maintain a satisiactory service (but at an amount not to ex ceed 25 cents or ba leu than 10 cents per ton. . .
