FERRY COMPANY ON COMPLAINTS.

In reply to letter protesting against the 'fn-
tolerable conditions the Staten Island ferry
boats" printed in Saturdays Tribune, a repre-
sentative of the company said yesterday:
It is true that did not run the 11:45 boat on
Thursday night but the statement that passengers
put to great inconvenience in making train
connections is not correct. The 1925 boat on
Thursday night made connections with the trains
for South Beach. Arlington and Tottenvle. The
ice conditions of the harbor affected materially the
running Of all ferries, and when considers that
the Staten Island ferry made forty-Ve trips Of
the schedule number of fortynine. in the face OF
the ice obstruction it shows good record. The
damage caused to paddle wheels by contact with
the ice makes it necessary to repair these parts.
trafic to make repairs so that the public win not
be Inconvenience.

Age Limit Of Midshipmen.

Prof Philip r. Alger, of the Naval
Academy, is heartily in favor OF adj
mitting midshipmen to that institu-
tion at an earlier age than is now
prescribed, but he believes that TO do
so and at the same time reduce the
length of the course would be absurd.
"At present, [" he says, in the Pro-
ceedings of the Naval Institute. 1--WE
are handicapping ourselves. We arc
putting q premium on stupidity by in
sisting upon the age limit being at a
certain point, and the requirements
those which should accompany fewer
years. The proposition of the
General Board TO reduce the age limit
heartily agree with, but it seems to
me almost ludicrous TO accompany
that recommendation by anotherrecom-
mendation that we shall also reduce
the length of the course.
81 cannot understand how the two
recommendations can go together they !;
want to lower the age limit and cut
down the course to three years. If
we would raise the age limit as DR..
Ames proposes. and also raise the en-
trance requirements, we might very
readily cut down the course, but the
proper thing, it seems to me. is to cut
down the age limit and increase the
length of the course at the Academy.
Take them at fifteen and graduate
them at twenty, after five years
course, and they are ready, properly
equipped to be given commissions.

SUPERVISORS OF ELECTION MEET
Decide To Accept Returns From
Saturdays Primaries.

There was an important meeting Of
the new board OF election supervisors
in this city this morning. at which
several important rulings were made
upon the advice of Mr.. II. p Melvin,
legal counsel of the board.
The supervisors determined that the
change of date by the Wells tactic n
of the Democratic party Of its prima-
ries had no effect upon the already ap-
pointed judges and clerks of the pri-
maries This means. that exactly the
same machinery appointed by the old
board before the designations Of
Messrs. Reyell and Donaldson, will
conduct the primaries
Mr.. Melvin also advised the board
Co take no part in the fractional mixup
by fayOring either side Of the Demo
cratic party. but Co accept the returns
of Saturdays primaries without any
statement in the receipts for ballot
boxes and ballots, showing whether
or not they recognized either sides
primary or that of the real party. The
ballot boxes were therefore returned
to the custody of the board by the
judges of Saturdays elections.
Another development today was the
changing CT the date of the Wells fac
tional primary back from August ~
TO Saturday, August IL, thereby get
ting inside the limit set by the Demo-
cratic convention of last May.

Pickpockets In Town.

As an illustration of the unusual size
and unusual composition of the crowd
at the Naval Academy this morning
during-the ceremonies attendant upon
the reception of John Paul Jones re-
mains, it developes to the sorrow OF
several Annapoiltans that there were
pickpockets present. These light.
fingered members of the crook family
were busy and made several hauIs.
Most of their victims. however, were
cash and watchless aud long lost arti-
cles of sma value. To these. how.
ever, Mr.. r. g. Elliott. of this city.
was an exception While standing in
the pack on Blake Row Mr.. Elliott
was relieved of his pocket book con-
tanning about $50 in bills of small de-
nomination. Mr. Elliott has no recol
lection being touched and is, there
fore, unable to furnish any description
or Olew for the police to work upon in
an attempt to catch the robber.

To Be Tried Here

Hayes Donaldson, charged with kill

the u. 5. Army, was this afternoon
re.committed by Justice William l..
Hawkins. of Curtis Bay, aud will be
brought TO the county Jail in this city

liminary hearing sthis afternoon whtn
his counsel, Mr.. Robert Moss, of this

arraigned in this city on Wednesday,
August 2.
Donaldson surrendered to Chief Of
Police Mcdonald and Patrolman Cook,
of Curtis Bay. at l2. 80 O'Clock yester
day morning, The surrender was
made just one week to the hour from
the time the shooting took place. When
seen at the police station at Curtis
Bay Donaldson was cool and collected
and conversed about his movements
during the last week freely, but said
he could not make a statement about
the shooting until he had seen his at.

CITY COUNCIL MEETS TONIGHT
To Name Officers at The Special
Session Called.

There will be a special meeting OF
the CITY Council in the Council Cham
Der on Gloucester street tonight, al
which the special order of business
will be the naming of the minor Off
cials for the coming year.
Under the rather erratic provisions
of the present City Code. there are
some of the officials whose selection
must be made before August |, and
it is understood that these. which in
clude the police officers, will be named
bv the City Fathers at this session.
There seems little doubt that George
Hahn. Jr, the present chief of police,
will be Reimbursed by the Demo-
cratic.party, although Howard b. Tay-
lor, who preceded Hahn, is an avowed
candidate for the office.
Chief Hahn, during his administrE-
tion, has made an excellent head of
the Annapolis police force, and the
general opinion on all sides seems TO
be strongly in favor of his re-appoint
ment Charles Oberry, the present
round sergeant of the force has, dur
ing his incumbenoy, made a good rec
ord as the night leader of the police
men and it is stated that he is slated
for re-appointment OF the police
force it is stated positively that Will
lam Brooks, who was frozen ont on the
recent bolted city election last year,
is to bejre- elected, although just which
of the present patrolmen is TO be drop
ped for this is not now known.
The indications are that there will
be no election of City Collector and
Treasurer nor City Commissioner.
These two are I ractical certainties,
it is understood. but there seems to
be some doubt as to the gentleman des-
tined to fill the other appointive Off
ces. For collector treasurer, the name
of Mr.. William II. Rullman is mem
toned most prominently. while there
are indications that Mr. William III
Vansant. present incumbent. will be
renamed for city commissioner. All
of these offices were to be settled upon
at the Democratic caucus held this
afternoon at O'Clock, but at the time
of going to presssthe caucus had not
adjourned.

Made Money On ZONES.

Progressive owners of power boat
and other craft in Annapolis yester-
day reaped a harvest transporting
throngs of persons from this city to
the formidable feet of warships which
formed the escort for the remains of
John Paul Jones from the Virginia
Capes to the Annapolis Roads While
there were several smaller craft plying
between the docks and the feet all
during the day, the principal one OF
these was the auxiliary bugeye owned
by Mr.. John Frank. A small fee fol
the trip was charged, and each round
trip netted the owners a goodly sun
as on several trips Mr.. Franks boai
carried close to one hundred persons
While the American ships, particular
" the Brooklyn, were great attrac
tions, the French cruiser Grayiere was

That is all, yet il sums mp brief
life's great work. There is nothing
of detail in that record. Yet his
fight with the Serapis will be ranked
in all history as the most desperate ae-
tion ever fought at sea. How desper-
ate it was is indicated by the fact
that 80 per cent of the combatants on
both sides were killed or wounded in
the action. and after the British ship
of superior force had struck her colors
Jones had TO transfer the remnant of
his crew from his own sinking ship 90
the prize he had captured.
Such was the man whose body now
lies in temporary resting place in
the beautiful grounds at the Naval
Academy awaiting the completion of
the magnificent chapel in the crypt
of which it will finally be laid.

THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.
The Result Shows Uphill Fight For
Wells Faction.

The result of Saturdays primaries in
this city proved the biggest surprise
of the whole recent ENHANCEMENT, the
indications being that the Wells fac
tion has at least got an uphill fight TO
hold its prestige, if it can succeed in
doing this at all
The call published by DIR. Wells and
other members of the Democratic
State Central Committee for primaries
10 be held il this county on August / 9,
it now developes. is in defiance of an
order passed by the Democratic con-
vention held in Baltimore on May %
last. At this convention a resolution
was passed, a portion of which stated
that the Democratic primaries in the
various counties of the state "shall"
be held not later than August Is. This
had evidently been overlooked by the
Wells faction when the date was
changed to August 10, and it is now
doubtful if this faction has vet time
to legally advertise its primaries be-
fore the 18th, in cas9 a change should
be necessary.
At the polls on Saturday night, not.
withstanding the changes of date by
the Wells faction. enough Wells sup.
porters turned out to show recogni-
ton OF the primaries which the Moss
faction claim is the only legal one of
this campaign for the coming election
The polling place at the Assembly
Rooms was opened at s O'Clock and
for half an hour or more the voting
was so heavy as TO keep the clerks
rushed to their utmost ability. After
this first rnsh the voting continued
fairly lively and at the close of the
polls the vote was as follows Moss
ticket. 13l votes Wells ticket, 8 votes
The total number of ballots cast was
l42, but three were blanks, - the
voters having evidently been Moss
supporters, as they made the mistake
of placing in the ballot box the copy
of the Moss Flood platform instead of
the ballot. which was shaped almost
exactly like It, This gave Moss ma
jority over his opponents of 1913 votes.
which is the biggest majority given in
a primary in this city for years.

Another Test Case.

A warrant has been issued by the
for the arrest of Mr.. Charles Howard,
the well. known plumber and tinsmith
for turning off the water supply at the
West street and Church circle fire
plug without having first notified the
city authoities 1t is alleged that
this was done by Mr. Howard ono day
last week when he was repairing the
plug, and that at the same time he
failed to notify the residents in the
neighborhood Of his action, thereby
cutting off their. water supply without
notice The case will be heard before
Justice John N. Davis on Wednesday
or Thurday of this week.
