new AUTO RULES EFFECTIVE
Motor Cars Can Go Twelve Miles Per
Hour on Conduit Road.
Change iR Regulations Expected "a
Cut Down Number of Arrests by
the Glen Echo Officials.

Automobiiists desiring to take a spin
over the Conduit road to-day may pass
through Glen Echo at a respectable gait
without fear Of falling foul OF the minions
of the law, for the hour
regulation of that villages authorities
goes into effect to-day. The former six
mile limit is no more, and in consequence
il is expected that the number of arrests
made by the officers under Mayor Gar
rett will henceforth be about % per cent
less than formerly.
From what information could be CLEANED
yesterday. it appears that the case OF the
Shouts chauffeur. V. d. Bell. is in a state
of innocu0us desuetude. Mr. Shonts is
said 70 have made the statement that he
intends to take no further action in the
matter, and although President Caverly
of the local Automobile club, intends TO
endeavor to induce Bell to go out TO Glen
Echo for trial. it is not regarded as
likely that the chauffeur will look favor
ably upon the proposition.
Peace hovers over the camps of the
Glen Echo authorities and the Washing
ton Automobile Club, and Il is expected
that the truce will be a permanent one
The complaints against Marshal Collins
who does the ''pinching' for Mayor Gar
rett, have been small iu comparison with
the number Of successful roundups he has

iished by further evidence.

Comparison with Statistics.

Judging from information received here,
great hullabaloo has been raised in
many large cities throughout the United
States over the population estimates for
1906, as compared with the official returns
for 1900. recently made public by the Di-
rector Of the Census. From the Pacific
Coast a wall Of protest comes 20 the Di-
rector OF the Census. Seattle claiming
that his estimate of the number Of in
habitants in that city is 10000 behind the
actual figures ST. Louis claims a popu-
lation of more than 100000, whereas Di-
rector North announced TO the world that
it was but $500 Kansas City loudly
shouts that 225,000 people reside within
its corporate limits. Director North es-
Inmates that tie hustling Missouri city
had a population of 1886 in 1906 Up to

Fourteen States of the Union have taken
censuses since the last Federal census in

fourteen States with our estimates for the

vidual cases the computations of the
Census Bureau may be wide OF the truth.
in a majority Of instances they approach
the actual figures very closely The total
population Of the fourteen States which
have taken q census since the last Fed

ence OF 50, lis or % per cent between the

cepted as the best substitute for an

Mr.. Mccall is hardly as enthusiastic
regarding the work OF the canal as soms

haustive article for a leading weekly
magazine. in which his views regarding
the work on the waterway are fully set
forth. and as the number OF the weekly
containing the paper has not yet ap-
peared. he is not inclined to talk freely
for publication elsewhere. One who con-
verses with him, however. gains the i'm
preston that he does not share all the
optimistic views expressed by the MEM

the exception of Mr.. Burleson, of Texas.

work on the isthmus since their return
from there.
I'VE undoubtedly witnessed a pro-
digious display OF American enterprise on
the isthmus.' said Mr. Mccall TO a rep
resentatve of The Washington Herald
yesterday. AS for pessimism in our
working force. that surely is not the place
to look for it.
Much effective work is now being
done. and the success Of the organization
created by Mr.. Stevens can easily be ex-
panded and made to accomplish much

For the frst time since the national

Secretary of War, acting at the request
of ne commandant at Fort Leavenworth,

branch bank for the benefit of officers
and men be authorized at that place He
called attention to the fact that 1890 peo-
pie live at Fort LeavenwOrth. and that
there was a strong demand among them
for banking facilities
The law officers decided that a branch
national bank could not be established,
and doubt was expressed that a charter
could be issued to State bank to do
business on a government reservation.
The Treasury officials suggested a na-
u0nal bank for Fort Leaveuworth. The
necessary money was raised, and appli-
