THE RIVER OPEN.


Little Fear of a Freshet Felt Here.
The. heavy rain following the snow storm
had the effect Of breaking up the Ice In
the river, and the basin between the ar
senaT point and the Long bridge is now
clear of ice. In the Georgetown channel
there is considerable floating ice coming
from the upper Potomac. which, together
with the swift current, makes 1t exceed
ingly unsafe for boats. Then at the Long
bridge there was a small-sized bank OF Ice
which made it difficult, and perhaps dan
gerous, to operate the draw.
While there has been no perceptible rise
in the river here rivermen think there will
be high water by tomorrow or next day,
although they do not expect freshet such
as has been experienced here several times
when there was water enough on Pennsyi-
vania avenue to float boats.
The opening of the river was nailed with
delight by the oystermen, who have been
unable to come up the river for some days
Those who were here at the time OF the
freezeout got good prices Tor their oysters
and were anxious to leave. and some VINO
had started up the river had been com
PEELED to stop on account OF the Ice and
they were anxious to get here before their
stock became worthless. -',l-
Following the opening OF the river many
of the boats that had been held here lifted
anchor and departed, and today some OF
the boats from down the river arrived with
a fresh supply of bivalves.
The river steamers are making their regu-
lar trips,

Indian Appropriation Bill.

Work on the Indian appropriation bill
was finished today by the House commit
tee on Indian affairs, and the bill will be
reported to the House this week. Its to-
tai, as previously stated, Is about $4,000
below the estimates.
Representative Holman, the chairman Of
the committee, explains that provisions
are cheaper this year than usual, that
most of the inhabitants of the United
States are forced to practice unusual econ
omy and that the Indians should share
the same conditions.
The principal legislation embodied in the
bill provides that a committee of five
members elect from the F'ifty-fourth Con-
gress, who are also members of this Con-
eress. and of the Indian committee, shall
before the first Monday of December in
vestigate all Indian expenditures by the
government
The committee is to have a clerk and Its
expenses are to be limited to $4,000. 1t is
empowered to travel and .einbody it's con-
clusions in the form of bill.

DEER PARKS SUGGESTED.
Our River Reservations Would Make
the Best Kind of Preserves.


United States Consul General DeKay at
Berlin has come forward In report to the
State Department, with novel proposition
that should command immediate attention
on the part of social economists as well as
of sportsmen. He says the abundance and
excellence of venison cannot fail to impress
persons who live in German cities. 1t is
common dish all the year round, and It's
price Is so moderate that only the poorest
classes fail to taste it now and then. The
reason for this is the high cultivation OF
forestry and the care with which deer are
bred. fed and protected from poachers
Considering the excellence or yenlSOn as
food and the small cost of rearing deer
under protection. it is in America especially
that steps to form practical deer parks
might be easy and of profit. Ii the neigh
borhood of great cities the supply OF water
has to be regulated by the preservation OF
large districts of more or less mountainous
and woody country. In New York. Tor ex-
ample, the Croton watershed AMI the Ad-
irondack reservations might be easily USED
as deer preserves, and the annual Filing
and sale of animals of the proper sort
would furnish an income far beyond the ag-
sregate salaries of overseers, foresters and
guards. .--- -
In Germany great success has attended
the crossing of the American Waptu with
the native deer The consul calls atten-
ton to the reckleSSnoSS with which IN our
country the wild animals have been de-
stroyed, bringing it's own punishment, and
he urges that our river reservations be
stocked with Wapiti and Virginia deer and
the herds then regularly decimated to
supply the markets with cheap and whole
some food. By very moderate gun
license also spcrtsmen would derive much
pleasure. and the parks would be source
OF revenue.

GIVEN A SCARE.



The action of the Commissioners yester-
day in writing to the attorney Of the Dis
trict, and requesting him to give them an
opinion as to the legal procedure necessary
to comply with section 16. article 10, of the
police regulations, requiring the railroads
to fence in their tracks, has given the
railroad scare If the Commissioners en-
fo1ce the regulations (and they say they
me an to do so) the railroad will be required
to build about five miles of fence. Within
the city limits the following portions OF
north on 1st to Florida avenue East on
Washington branch from 1st to Florida
avenue Then there is long distance un-
protected outside of the city proper, out
within the District. which, according 10 the
Commissioners must also be protected
The Baltimore and Potomac railroad
has its tracks pretty well protected. and
will only be required to build about one
mile of fence. There is no fence OF this
line between 7th and 14th streets west,
nor between South Capitol and I'd street
east.
lexington Walls.
Relative to the question as to the exis-
tence Of party walls in lexington, the at
torney for the District has decided that
while there are building regulations for
the city of Washington, in which the ease
ment of party walls is recognized and
which makes such easement run with the
land it does not apply to lexington Party
walls, he says, can only exist Dy con-
tract expressed or implied.

The Increase Favored.
Our Trnde With BrnziI.

In a report to the State Department by
United States Consul Matthews at Para
the opportunities for extending American
trade in Brazil are set out, but he adds
that much uneasiness Is felt by our bust
ness men there in regard to the abroga-
ton of the reciprocity treaty with Brazil,
ard it is claimed by them that our trade
will be seriously affected unless we can
get a new treaty with that country. Adj
vantages secured from the Brazilian gov
eminent offer the surest and perhaps the
only way by which we can nope to sue
cessfully compete with European nations,
for the commerce is controlled by the Por-
tuguese residents, who naturally lean to
the interests of Europe, and will only turn
their patronage to America when they can
derive special advantage from SO doing.

Submit Substitute.
The Commissioners today made the fol-
low ing report upon Senate resolution 1O8,
entitled Joint resolution to empower the
Commissioners Of the District of Columbia
to make and enforce regulations to secure
the removal of snow, ice and dirt from the
sidewalks in the District Of Columbia
They say that after a conference with
their legal adviser they were of the opin-
ion that the resolution was not sufficiently
comprehensive to insure it's effectiveness,
especially in the matter of compelling nom
resident property holders to comply with
it's provisions. They thereupon directed
their attorney to prepare a substitute,
which they submit and recommend in lieu
of the resolution referred to them by the
District committee.

A Late Suspect Being Investigated
No Fears df an Epidemic
at lie JAN.


Yesterday afternoon, after Mrs. Ward and
her three children. at No. Q street. were
found with the varioloid. and the health
officials had taken the necessary precau-
tions against the disease spreading, a call
from 1908 B street northeast, only few
squares from the quarantine station. was
received. There the doctors found Baker
Stearer, colored, 70 years old, suffering
from an attack of smallpox. The physicians
could not trace this to any Of the other
cases. Shearer came here only abOur six
weeks ago from Mississippi, and, SO far as
the physicians could ascertain, he was not
acquainted with any other smallpox pa
t1ents. There are other persons in the
mousse, and after the patient was sent to the
hospital Waterman was put on duty to
prevent occupants of the house from going
out and probably spreading the disease.
AS published In yesterdays Star, Mrs.
ward and her two children Were taken
sick exactly fourteen days after they were
exposed to Missile Williams. and as this is
the period when new cases in the neighbor-
MOOD or Logan court and Pierce street
ward ordered a house-to-house inspection
there to make certain that there are no
smallpox patients being treated in the
houses.
No Fear ut Jail.
Warden Leonard stated to Star reporter
tCday tnat while several cases or smallpox
had been discovered within few squares
of the Jail. he was confident that the
disease could not invade the prison. All
the officials of the Jail, he said. have been
successfully vaccinated, and every person
committed to Jail Is at once vaccinated on
arrival there. No visitors, excepting attor-
Eeys. said the warden, are allowed to see
prisoners. and will not be until after the
health officer has declared all danger to be
over. Extra precautions, said Mr.. Leonard.
are being taken to put the prison and its
inmates in as perfect a sanitary condition
as possible. and it Is believed that II a
case Of smallpox should develop in the
Jail no serious results could ensue With
the exception of few cases of minor in
disposition the prisoners, explained the
warden, are in excellent health.
Industrial School.
There Is not, nor has there ever been, any
smallpox at the Industrial Home School
The children's friends were excluded on
visiting day for fear the disease might be
brought in from the city.
There was one suspected case today in
Union court. The patient was seen by the

tomorrow, before giving his final decision
as to whether or not he has the vartoloid
