man be delighted IL the tour ~ duty
was part of their regular summer
work. Il il believed thai Lteut--t'oi-

rades Lad in the say 81 artillery work
II IS therefore considered advisable
for one regiment to be designated reg

ever be necessary II this becomes the
practice there II little d0abt that the

officers Of Fort Howard were most
complimentary in their comments 0n
the work done by the regiment and
expressed q desire to have II come
again under similar conditions. though
Lieut.. Colonel Deems suggested that
the peri0d be a little later in the
year. when the weather was cooler-
m II should be understood that the
FIRST Regiment would perform this
work regularly, ft would be q very
helpful thing 10 the organizations.
compOsed as il is " companies in the

IL would insure that this regiment
would be brOJgbt t0gether every year
for a considerable period. whereas a
period Of two or three years has 0ften
elapsed between its assembly IS acvFu-

popular with the men and the annual
trip would result IN the old men stay

INTERESTING COMPLICATIONS
The Democratic Primaries MHdsle
in Anne Arundel

An interesting complication connect
cd with the Democratic primary which
will take place in Anne Arundel e0un-
~ on July q has arisen in the Fourth
district, where IL appears that enc
person was appointed judge u elec-
ton By the supervisors and another
person Of similar name is said 10 have
qualified.
II is understood that the persons are
Of opposite factfonaI leanings. and
the mistake may have considerable
effect In view Of the fact that the
Fourth district is one Of the battle
grounds in the coming fight and the
home Of Gen. Franz 4. Bond the
leader Of the forces opposed to Dr.
George Wells.
The commission as Judge - the
urinary election Was issued - Win
field Murray, who is a sraunen adher-
eut Of the Bond forces THIS was the
Judge appointed by the superv is0rs
on their own responsibility and as
one Of the other judges was q friend
OF DR.. Wells and the other q General
Bond IL would have had the effect
Of putting the election machinery IN
der the control Of the anti-WelIs eie-
menf. However, the commission was
issued To Wineld ;. Murray, the
nephew Of the other Murray. who IS
said to be a stauneh Wells adberent,
and the one receiving the commission
qualified, as the law directs, before a
justice Of the peace.
The superv isors Of election have now
bean informed Of the miscarriage Of
their action and will endeav0r 70 re-
call the commission and have IL made
out 10 the proper party. II - held
however, that il will be impossible

A Friend TO the Trolley

July - W.
Editor Evening Capital.
Dear Sir:-On all sides one cOgliD.
ually hears talk and especially among
the business men Of our city, concern
ing the possibilities and effect on local
business that the coming electric troll
ley system will, no doubt, Cause.
while / am no authority whatever on
the subject, have every reason to be-
licve that in the end the business men
Of Annapolis and our citizens in gen
eral, will have cause 10 be thankful
that this city can boast Of an up-to-
the minute electric trolley service.
Electric trolley systems are rapidly
connecting the smaller cities and
towns With the larger commercial
centers, and every merchant on such
a line has a bigger and, in some
eases, much different and more diff
cult problem to solve than nc has yet
tackled. To the merchant in the
larger cities it simply means an ex-
pansion Of ways and means, and a
much broader field for original thought
and work. But what of the merchant
in that class of cities and towns
where they are still advertising
John Henry Smith, Dealer In Crabs
also Pigs Feety" If he's on the line
with Mr. City Merchant he will have
to make very generous change in
his whole plan OF conducting and adj
vertising his business. Good for the
electric trolley seryicei The electric
trolley sytem is a stimulant both to
business and travel. There are nu-
merous good reasons for its growing
popularity throughout this glorious
country Of ours. The electric system
generally gives :better service and
lower rates of fare. The strong point
being "hourly service" This alone
will influence people To make frequent
trips who seldom used the steam
road. Then, too, there is vast sense
Of cleanliness qnite out Of the ordi-
nary that speaks volumes for the
electric service. There are facts that
are being proved and worked out
wherever the electric trolley service
has reached. SO, by all means let us
have in our city an up-to-date cleo
trio trolley service and-let us have
IL soon. The sooner the better for
al concerned.
Very truly yours,

AWAITING REPORT
Navy Department Annex for Off,
cial Account Of Disaster

The Navy Department IL anxiousiy
awaiting the report Of the special board
appointed by Rear Admiral Thomas.
commanding the second division of
the Atlantic fleet. 10 investigate the
cause of the Georgia disaster.
While The board ~ expected ~ be as
expeditions as possible IL may ba sew
eral days before IL will be able 10
reach definite g 0DciUsiOn. owing to
the fact that the members may have 10
return - Boston 10 get the statements
of those Of the injured who are Ia
condition to tell anything concerning
the matter. Until the report of the
board IL received naval officers gcner-
ally are disincIined to discuss the
cause " the accident.
The opinion prevails among many
of them, however, that the theory
that spark from the smokestaek ~
the ship may have nOaied down the
open scuttle on top of the lurrel upon
The powder charged Is correct. IL IL
explained that the sack in which the
powder - encased ~ made of in1am-
mabIe material in order that IL may
be readily consumed IN the bore of the
gun after the charge - fired. other
wise bits Of burning cloth might pre-
matureIy explode The next charge.
In some instances the sack is made Of
silk in order that IL may be strong
and at the same time combnstible.
The ordinance department Is now ex-
perimenting with material for sacklng
which will be waterproof and still
more infiammable than the present
sacks. IL is further explained that 1t
is necessary when the big guns are be-
ing fired rapidly TO have tho scnttIe
open, az the turrets become very hot.
In several instances Of disaster IN
turrets like the present one, the result
has been some improvement calculated
to afford greater safety and convent
ence. The kearsaTgc accident resulted
in the application Of the automatic
shutter in the .aummunition hoist
which shuts on the upper from the
lower turret and in the event Of an
accident in one turret prevents gas or
flame from being communicated from
one 20 the other. In this instance ii
Is evident that the shutter worked all
right, and perhaps may have prevent
ed a still more serious accident.
IL was suggested yesterday that in
asmucb as il Is necessary TO have
the scutfle open when the guns arc
being fred that IL might be practicable
TO have an electric fan at the opening
which would blow away SCOT or
sparks which might possibly come
down through the opening.
Nidsbipman Cruise Is said to be
worse and his recovery Is dcspaired of.
