The Department of Docks and Ferries' receipts for 1902, from leases, wharfage, etc., were 326. 52. In addition to thousands of tons of freight handled by lighters, there are about cars handled on floats daily, between Canal street on the North river and Jackson street on the East river, with out obstructing any street room. The usual charge for light erage, as prorated, is 3 cents per 100 lbs., and the claim is made that in some instances the actual cost runs as high as or 4 cents. Exclusive of grain and coal, three railroads alone pour into Jersey City daily about tons of freight, to be transported to New York City.
