From l ite Charlotte Observer.
For the last two or three months
many rumors have been afloat,
.xunetimes they Itave been vague
ami at others almost definite, to
the efiect that a movement was
on foot to make some large water
power development on the Catawba
river, south of the Catawba
Power Company's plant. Those
who are interested have stea lily
refused to give any information in
connection with their purposes
and intention. Out of what we
have seen, however, and of land
transactions, the records of which
arc open to everybody, the evi*
dence all points toward the developments
which may be described
tentatively as follows:
The plans are now nearly perfected
for the development of the
water power at the Great Falls on
the Catawba, near Chester'* and
Winnsboro. At this point properties
have been gotten together
extending up and down the river
for a distance of eight miles, controlling
i 73 feet fall. This power
will be developed in units, with
one-third its total capacity; each
unit, will g've from 52,000 to 30,000
horse power. At one of these
points the developments can be
quickly and cheaply made. This
work will be undertaken without
further delay and cun be finished
within a year to 18 month", according
to the How of the river.
It is the idea of those interested
to put power into Gastonia and
considerable more power into
Charlotte. Connections will be
made from the Great Falls to the
Catawba Power Company's plant
in such a way that any of the
plants can be run in co-operation
with any other. The main line
will carry the current at 44,000
volts.
The same people also own the
watcrec water power, neat* Camden,
and when the three new developments
arc completed at the
Great Falls, then the Wateree
power will bo developed for 25,
uuu ur ju,uuu norso power.
Taking the five developments to
gether,- viz: the Catawba Power
Company's plant, near Rock Hill
the three new proposed developments
at the Catawba Falls; and
the development of the Watoree
power near Camden, all of which
are within 40 miles, there will be
a power of 110,000 horses all told.
This power, on the basis ot
30 spindles per horse power on
coarse goods, would operate 3,300,000
spindles; on a basis of
40 spindles per horse power on
fine goods, it would operate 4,400,000.
This is on a basis of
the minimum flow of the river,
and if the average flow should be
considered and the value of the
sto:age basins ahotild also be considered,
their developments when
completed would operate 5,000,000
spindles. Of course all this
power will not be used for running
cotton spindles. Part of it
is already in use in Charlotte for
lighting the city, for running machine
shops, and for aU sorts of
manufacturing interests. The
company expects to bring its
wires and currents this wav to a
very large extent. The plans are
not yet completed, hut it may be
arranged to carry power to Columbia
and Charleston. Of course
Winnsboro, Chester and liock
Hill will get an ample supply for
all their needs. Lanc.ts'er and
Monroe will also come in for pow
er from these developments.
Charlotte and Gastoniu will
make the principal points of distribution
from this section, but
the power will be supplied whereevor
it may be needed within the
vicinity of Charlotte, The high

veloptiK nt so 1 lit.t in tlilit way the
work is already begun. As soon
.is the plans me in shape t?> do
the woik will begin on ihegroiind
and it llieie are no serious and
continuous floods in the river, the
people who have the mutter in
charge hope t<? have the first unit
of 25,000 horse power at the Catawba
Falls in operation by this
time next year or certainly in the
early fall at ?he latent
Work has already brer, going
on for nearly two months under
the direction of Mr W ?S Lee, Jr.,
manager of the Catawba Power
Company's plant. A force of
engineers and draftsmen are at
work 111 the Piedmont building 011
the plans and a force of engineers
and surveyors arc at work in the
field.
It has not yet been determined
whether the first dam and power
house will be put out to contract
or built by day labor. In either
event the work will bo done un
der the direction of the manager
here, Mr Leo. ICach of these four
new devclonmcnts will require
something like a million dollars or
over The pole lines and other
necessary auxihaiy improvements
will make the entire aggregate in-'
vestment something like five million
dollars or more.
Pr W Gill \V\ 11e, of New York,
has been here several time* lately
and steadily refuses to tdk, but
whenever he conms something
happens and he is really organizing
this entire Catawba power
business, and it may be counted
on that all his plans u ill go through
all right In truth, as above
stated the work has already begun.
