  on

  A 
  canvass 
  of 
  the 
  Hudson 
  river 
  powers 
  was 
  

   made 
  in 
  1895 
  and 
  appears 
  in 
  detail 
  in 
  table 
  No. 
  12, 
  Showing 
  

   Water 
  Power 
  in 
  Use 
  on 
  the 
  Hudson 
  River 
  in 
  1895, 
  of 
  the 
  Report 
  

   on 
  Upper 
  Hudson 
  Storage 
  Surveys, 
  December 
  31, 
  1895. 
  The 
  detail 
  

   is 
  too 
  extensive 
  for 
  insertion 
  here, 
  but 
  may 
  be 
  obtained 
  by 
  refer- 
  

   ence 
  to 
  the 
  said 
  report. 
  

  

  According 
  to 
  this 
  table, 
  the 
  total 
  power 
  in 
  use 
  on 
  the 
  Hudson 
  

   river 
  in 
  1895 
  was 
  43,481 
  net 
  horsepower. 
  This 
  power 
  remains 
  

   substantially 
  the 
  same 
  in 
  1904 
  as 
  in 
  1895, 
  except 
  that 
  the 
  Hudson 
  

   River 
  Power 
  & 
  Transmission 
  Company 
  has 
  built 
  a 
  new 
  plant 
  of 
  a 
  

   stated 
  minimum 
  capacity 
  of 
  5000 
  horsepower 
  three 
  miles 
  below 
  

   Mechanicville. 
  There 
  has 
  also 
  been 
  some 
  increase 
  in 
  the 
  power 
  

   in 
  use 
  at 
  Bakers 
  Falls, 
  but 
  just 
  how 
  much, 
  the 
  writer 
  is 
  unable 
  to 
  

   state. 
  The 
  new 
  plant 
  of 
  the 
  Hudson 
  River 
  Water 
  Power 
  Com- 
  

   pany 
  at 
  Spier 
  Falls 
  has 
  also 
  been 
  built. 
  The 
  total 
  power 
  in 
  use 
  

   on 
  the 
  Hudson 
  river 
  in 
  1904 
  is 
  perhaps 
  75,000 
  to 
  80,000 
  net 
  horse- 
  

   power. 
  

  

  Harlem 
  river 
  and 
  Spui/ten 
  Duyvil 
  creek. 
  This 
  river 
  and 
  creek 
  

   are 
  an 
  arm 
  of 
  the 
  Hudson, 
  extending 
  from 
  Hudson 
  river 
  to 
  East
