Deducting from the total compensation to be giran to private pier owners, the azount which represents the Government share of the Reclamation (which portion of the scheme is wholly for the public besiellt, and therefore to that extent excluding the soral claim above referred to) the Gogemoe understands that the maximum sum re quired for
compensation
in respect of piers, both public and private (it being imposible fer some weeks to obtain more cart figures), will be $189,00 which, together with the $10,000 above referred to, tanken up a total mum of $220,000, or 192 cents per foot of the lot-owners portion of the Reclamation, or four per cent of the profit, which accord. ing to the lowest extimate will be derived from the project by the frontage lot- holders.
