TO SAVE THE BIRDS.
Hunters in Neighboring States to Take
Protective Measures.

People who have been cunning in Mary
land and Virginia since the opening of the
season last Wednesday report a scarcity of
game. The cool weather during the latter
part of the week has caused an improve
ment in duck shooting down the Potomac,
and some of the sDortsmen have brought
home large bags filled with ducks. One
gunner, who spent two days in Prince VIII
liam county, Va, returned with two wild
turkeys and a few rabbits He saw several
coveys of quail. but did not shoot at them,
the residents of the county Directing to the
killing of the birds.
There are very few birds left in Prince
William county" said the sportsman, and
they are wanted for breeding purposes. The

people in the county have made up their
minds that the birds shall not be killed
this year, and are impressing upon their
guests the necessity of following the rule.
Quail are scarce in both the neighboring
states, and there ought to be some way to
stop their slaughter without waiting for
law to be passed by the legislature. The
law should give the county authorities or
game warden authority to put stop to
shooting at any time the necessity should
arise. In Maryland the Legislature meets
only every two years, and delay in secur
ing a protective law such as Is needed at
this time means almost the determination
of the birds. Last winter the weather was
very severe, and this spring there was so
much wet weather that the young birds did
not thrive. The result is that there are
not enough of them left to insure sport for
many gunners."
Reports from the',section of Maryland be-
tween ChesapeakazBeach and this city in
dictate that there are more birds there than
there are in other sections near this city.

Moving the Big Dry Dock.

1t Is estimated in the Navy Department
that the cost of towing the big steel dry
dock from Baltimore to its station In the
Philippines Will be about $2500Oo. Three
golfers will be used in getting the dock to
its distant destination, and there will be.
in addition. certain extraordinary expenses
in the way of buoyage and canal tolls. 1t
IS proposed to take the dock through the
Suez canal, and that incident will be nota-
bic. as the dock Is larger than any struc-
ture which has even gone through that
waterway. The dock will start on Its long
voyage the middle of next month. Capt.

A II POPULATION.
Returns Thus Far Received Show
About a 10 per cent Increase.

Trenton, June 30:-Census bull
letin, No. 1, giving the first returns
from the present enumeration of the
people of New Jersey, was issued
by Secretary of State Dickinson yes
terday. It gives scattered figures
from 10 counties.
The number of municipalities men
toned is As. The total increases are
1866, and the total decreases 1888,
giving a net increase of 6,50S. The
comparison is with the national cen
sus Of 1900, and the percentage of
growth in the AZ places is a trife
over Is per cent. Should tbs ratio
apply to the whole state the total
population will be :, 166,219. In 1900
it IA l,SS3,669. 1t is expected,
however, that in most of the cities
the increase will be more than Is
per cent, so that the total popula-
'tion is likely to be considered more
than the figure named.

SAY TRUST is FAVORED.
Other Paving Companies Protest
!. Against New York Specifications.

Borough President Ahearn, of
New York, will open bids today for
$550,000 of new street paving, some
of which is for wood blocks. Firms
dealing in the latter article are loud
ly complaining that the speciica-
tons have been so changed that the
United States Wood Preserving Com
pany has the entire field to itself.
This statement by one of the dis
satisfied bidders, whose name is not
given, was shown to Mr.. Ahearn:
Under the specifications, which
are ingeniously drawn, only one
wood-block factory in the United
States can furnish the pavement,
namely, the United States Wood Pre-
serving Company.
Contractors are required to furn-
ish samples five days before the let
ting, and they are further required,
five days before the letting, to state
the location of the factory where the
blocks are made. This scheme is de-
signed to aequaint the Wood Pre-
serving Company with the name and
address of any possible leader, so
that he may be pulled off before
the letting.
In reply, the Borough President
said;
"If the proposed conspiracy goes
through without opposition the cost
of pavements in lower New York will
be advanced from 81 to $1.50 per
square yard above present prices.
In each contract the company
binds itself to maintain the wood
block pavement for ten years, 1t is
the sort of pavement demanded for
the downtown districts by the truck
men, who do not want asphalt. As
to the provision requiring samples
to be brought here five days before
the bids are opened, that is to let
