RAN TOWN ON FINES
PAID BY AUTOlSTS.
Village Near National Capital Derives
Big Income from Owners Of
Automobiles.

WASHINGTON. d. c., MAY al Spe-
cial. Some fifteen years ago a party of
Phladelphians bought tract of land on
the Conduit road, just over the Maryland
line, from the District of Columbia. Here
they undertook to establish "Chautau-
qua. An enormous auditorium was
erected and several other buildings of
almost equal magnitude. IN addition,
there were built scventy-fye cottages
The first year that the place was opened
a great many cOttagers and tcnters at
tended the lectures and for few weeks
it looked as though the enterprise would
bc successful. Then came the slump. and
the Chautauqua idea was abandoned
soon the place grew very much like
GoIdsmiths deserted village in appear
ance.
Town Has Sprung Up.
Then some one bought one of the cot
tagcs, and he was soon followed by others
until about year ago the village of
Glen Echo incorporated, and now it has
sprung into international prominence
through the activity of its municipal au-
thoritics.
The Conduit road is government Gre
alton. 1t covers the water conduits which
bring Washington's aqueos supply from
the Great Falls of the Potomac to the
reservoir supplying the city's needs 1t
IS a well kept roadway and is popular
among autOmObiIists.
The taxable property of Glen Echo is
comparatively insignificant in value and
the enterprislng mayor Of the town had
to look around for other means of rails
ing revenue. He called his Counsellors
togcthers and they adopted an auto speed
ordinance and appointed marshal to
enforce il. Since the creation Of the mu-
nicpal government of this insignificant
hamlet. people so fortunate as to own
automobiles have been mulctcd to an
extent which if continued promises to
make the treasury of Glen Echo the
most plethoric of any village Of its size
in the world.
Five OF six times every evening the
vigilant marshal holds up an automobile
and haleS the occupants before his honor
the mayor and in each instanc" the treas
ury of the municipality is enriched by a
fine Of from SO to $50 and no guilty
specdcr is permitted to leave without de-
posting the cash or valuable collateral.
Arrest an Ambassador
While there was great deal Of growl-
ing among Washington car owners over
the action Of the Glen Echo officials
nothing official came Of it until they
undertook TO hold and fine the Italian
ambassador ahd the Duke Abruz2i Then
they found that the United States law
would protect the ENJOYS of foreign pow
crS from annoying enforcement of petty
municipal regulations. Now the state
department has the matter under cousld-
Grafton but whatever the outcome may
he the mayor and marshal of Glen Echo
have succeeded in making themselves

CLARK & co.'s COTTON LETTER

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-Liyerpool was
featureless during the entire session.
Our market after the reading of the
ginners manifested some uneasiness
on the part of the timid shorts but
the figures were about as the trade
had expected and the effect was that
that was some selling from these
heavily committed to the long side.
The heavy break in the security mar
ket caused some of the Wall street
bull clique to take profit, while the
market was we'll supported during
the major portion of the day by buy
ing emanating from the South. Com
mission houses were large buyers of
March and May while New Orleans
was put down as a heavy seller all
day. The all-absorbing topic Of the
day was tomorrow's government guess
on this years crop The trade seems
to center around II IL million bales.
We are still strong in our belief that
this cotton is yet purchase on every
decline and if the guess tomorrow is
over what the trade is looking for
the bull crowd will take profits, don't
miss this chance of buying.

DRAMATIZED
FROM POPULAR BOOK

A play thoroughly out of the ordi-
nary, and yet constructed on interest
ing and plausible lines, will be seen
for the first time at Gloyer's Opera
House next Thursday, matinee and
night. 1t is entitled Lena Rivers"
is in four acts and is dramatized by
Beulah Poynter from Mary J. Hol-
mess famous novel. The play it
self stirs human chord in the breast
of all, and as for tears, pathos and
laughter it is fairly surfeited with it.
Under the management of C. II.
Packard, the production has been
provided with a magnificent scenic
outfit and the mechanical effects
are very effective.

COTTON VALUES
WORKED LOWER
Small Business Locally
Basis II IL Gents.

On the eve of the Government
crop estimate cotton contracts broke
sharply at New Orleans yesterday
with smaller losses at New York
The opening was at an advance over
Saturdays close and prices for a
time held. The ginners report issued
by the census bureau gave the
amount ginned to Dec. 1, as 8,33S, 900
bales. The figures were about as
expected but were not bullish enough
to suit a considerable number of
holders. Selling orders for short
account also followed the announce
ment. Under this weight the market
eased off, the close being at the low
est for the day. The losses in the
stock market also affected cotton
unfavorably. May was the heaviest
loser.
New York opened 1 to 16 points
higher, March being considerably in
the lead of other positions Follow
ing the opening, changes were a
trife irregular; but the market soon
gave evidence of weakness. The
close was steady 1 point net lower
for March to 13 lower for May.
Spot prices were not changed New
Orleans opened 1 to points up.
In the afternoon values melted away
as the result of persistent selling.
The close was steady 16 to Is points
below the final for Saturday. Spot
quotations were unchanged.
Liverpool opened 2 IL to IL
points higher and closed steady / IL
to points higher as compared with
the previous close. Spot prices were
advanced points with sales of
$4,000 bales The English market is
due to open this morning 2 to 8
points lower.
In the local spot market trading was
very limited, such sales as were re-
ported being on a basis of II 1-2c
for good middling The demand was
excellent but offerings were almost
none. The bad weather cut down
the receipts for the day by wagon to
p bales. Quotations are slightly
changed, low middling being advanced
IA of a cent over Saturdays figures.
