THE OYSTER BILLS.

The Senate on Monday passed the Viii
son Substitute Oyster Planting bill and
the House passed the modified Haman bill
The vote in the Senate was 81 for and
against. In the House the vote was y to
20. The lone vote in the Senate was cast
by Mr.. Young. The negative votes in the
House were cast by members from tide
water counties on the Eastern Shore. This
action was great surprise to the friends
of the bill who had believed that it was
so amended as to be acceptable to all
sides. It is understood that the amended
House bill is acceptable to its friends out
side the legislature.
The next step will be to bring about an
agreement between the House and Senate
on the separate measures adopted by each.
Whether such an agreement can be reach
ed, thereby making oyster culture pos
sibility, is do ubtful, though desperate eff
forts for an agreement will be put forth.
The large vote cast in the two houses
Monday for bills in both of which oyster
culture is the prominent feature would
seem to make an agreement possible, but
the opponents Of leasing of bottoms of
the bay for oyster planting purposes have
aided in bringing about the passage of
radically different bills, hoping thereby
to bring about such an antagonism be-
tween the two houses that no culture bill
will ultimately be passed.
In creating such situation the oppo-
nents of leasing may overreach their
mark Conferences between the friends
of oyster planting in the two houses are
in progress and with the result that the
Senate and House bills may be joined
together as one bill, thus throwing open
to oyster culture all the open waters of
the bay and the beae;ag oyster bottoms
along the Calvert county shores. The
two bills correspond in including the open
waters of the bay for leasing purposes
1t will only be necessary to amend the
House bill by adding the natural bars as
provided in the Senate bill.
Those who were absent from the cham
Der at the time or who did not vote were
Senators Brewington, Gill, Moore and
Perkins.
The bill was carried over to the House
by Secretary Moss as soon as it was
passed.
The Wilson measure provides for an
experimental system of planting, taking
up $4,000 acres of the bottoms from Cove
Point and Chesapeake Beach, borderin g
| on the Calvert and St. Mary's counties
shores. The bottoms are to be divided
into three sections, and the rental per
acre in each section will be So, S. and 81
respectively. An oyster register, to sit at
Prince Frederick, is provided for at
salary of 81 coo per annum.

est parade of tribal people Of the far
east which the United States has ever
witnessed the Philippine exposition at

of the Philippine exposition board, to
Colonel Clarence R. Edwards, chief of
insular affairs Of the war department.
Colonel Edwards, who as General
Lawton's adjutant was with the latter

Philippines, after receiving for the
war department the great exposition
Of the territory which he helped to
win for the United States, in turn
committed it to the keeping of Presi-

The exercises Saturday took place
from the grandstand, which is being
erected on the large parade grounds Of
the Philippine constabulary, and seats
and benches will provide for an audi

Edwards will review the panorama OF

the crushing weight OF care and respon-

Men in Charge Of Sea Wall Pro.
posaI Submit Report to Cham.
Der Of Commerce.
MAJORITY fAvORs PROJECT
Matter viii Now Be Presented
to Citizens at Mass Meetings
and Definite Action Taken
at That Time.

The seawall proposal is back whence
1t came. Yesterday the committee APP
pointed to canvass sentiment turned
over to President James W. welch OF
the Chamber Of Commerce all OF the
papers bearing on the matter. and II
10 now up to the chamber TO take fur
ther action. The proposition win be
called up for action at the meeting of
the chamber to be held Monday night
and some decision arrived at.
A majority Of the property owners
In the district affected by the proposed
Improvement favor the seawall. and are
willing to bear their respective por-
tions OF the expense OF constructing It.
A very small percentage OF all Of the
property owners-about sta per cent
oppose the expenditure Of the money
necessary to give the city a permanent
waterfront. and a few others are non
committal. About 40 per cent of the
interested parties failed to make writ
ten reply to the committees letter, and
there is no record of their sentiment.
''The whole proposal is now up to
the Chamber OF Commerce" said Frank
l. Parker yesterday. THE committee
exhausted every means at its disposal
to secure an expression from all of the
interested land owners. and at a meet
ing determined to lay before the cham
Der its complete report All of the
written replies received to our letter
have been forwarded to President
welch, and it rests with the chamber
to take such further action as may be
deemed advisable. presume II will
now be in order to call another mass
meeting of citizens and decide upon
the future course OF action"
Mr.. Parker was asked whether or
not majority Of the property owners
favored the improvement.
I'VE have received written replies
from about so per cent of the people
affected" he replied. "Of this so per
cent, those opposed constitute about 6
per cent, whereas the opposers are but |
Sh per cent of all of the land owners
In the district. We have the signatures
Of more than so per cent of the land
owners in favor of the seawall
Whether or not this representation will |
be sufficient to undertake the work is
a question for the property owners
themselves to decide"
Mr.. Parker went on to say that he
had not lost faith in the feasibility of
the project. He stated that the seawall
could be built without imposing any
great burden on any of the property
owners, and that the improvement
would so enhance property values that
the interested ones would almost inn
mediately get back their money. The
committee put in four months work
on the proposal and feels that it has
done its duty It is now up to the
property owners to act.
