Description
Harris County-Houston Ship Channel Navigation District was the operator of a certain dock and mechanical loading facilities at the port of Houston, Texas. Under a tariff arrangement the Southern Steamship Company used the dock and its facilities in and about the loading and unloading of its ships. At the dock the Navigation District maintained a crane shed equipped with an aerial overhead traveling type crane. The shed had a concrete apron and warehouse space to accommodate freight as it was unloaded from vessels from time to time. The overhead crane was used to move heavy freight about the warehouse or crane shed and to load and unload railway freight cars. The crane traveled on an overhead track and the operator sat below the crane in an open box where he had an unobstructed view and where he moved the crane with its heavy loads on signals from the men on the floor below.
