Mrs. Lawton the Only Obstacle.
lRy the Associated Press


Washington, March 19.-Congress
having conferred the necessary author
ity before it's adjournment the only
present hitch in the completion of the
transfer of the Port Royal Naval Sta
ton to Charleston is the unwillingness
of Mrs. Lawton, the owner of the pri-
vate land required in the site selected
at Charleston, to sell at the Govern
ment's terms. The Port Royal board
originally recommends 5000 an acre for
the private land, but upon representa-
tions from Mrs. Lawton to the effect
that the price was not deemed just by
her, the Navy Department sent anoth-
er board to Charleston to look further
into the matter and fix if need be. a
new price. But this f., ard too, adhered
~ ITO original figure and declared it to
be a fair and just compensation for
ton.
Admiral Endicott, Chief of the Bureau
of Yards and Docks, is now in CORE
apondence with Mrs. / awton and it is
probable that she will shortly close the
deal at the figure named. At least this
would appear the wisest course to pur-
sue, for the Government has the op-
