ACTION TAKEN BY JOBBERS AND
SHIPPERS COMMITTEE.

The credit committee of the JobDers and
Shippers Association met this afternoon
at o'clock in the Offices of it's chairman,
Ross P. Andrews, and plans were perfected
for the establishment Of credit bureau
for the use of local merchants.
The board OF directors of the Jobbers and
Shippers Association will meet late this
Afternoon at the American Security and
Trust Companys offices to discuss many
matters of Importance to the members.
The most interesting of the association
accomplishments during the past few
weeks has been the quick delivery Of
freight. The postal record system now
kept by the secretarys Office shows marked
improvement over conditions that obtained
three four months ago.
II have determined to discontinue the
postal system for a few weeks" said Mr.
r. P. Andrews, vice president Of the asso-
citation today, because l find everything
running so smoothly that 1t is useless to
follow the shipments closely. ! have made
Investigations pertaining to our shipments
to all parts of the south, and never since I
have been in business have conditions been
SO satisfactory. l really believe that the
Jobbers and Shippers Association has done
great work, and l know the merchants ap-
preciate the advantages already secured.
MI. May Of Same Opinion.
and one Of the members Of the board Of
directors of the association, was of the
same opinion. He, too. is going to ease up
on the postal system for awhile. This same
general feeling Of satisfaction seems to pre-
vail throughout the association.
1t Is also probable that the JobberS' Asso-
citation will take up the broad-tire contro-
versy at it's meeting this afternoon. 1t is
known that several of the members of the
association are interested in the bill that is
now before the District Commissioners for
determination, and a committee may be ap-
pointed to take the question up at the
hearing to be granted by the Commission
ers Thursday of this week.
Secretary Clum has received proposition
from Baltimore concern that desires to

ngton. A representative of the company
called on Mr.. Clum this morning and out
lined the plan, asking that the matter be
presented to the Jobbers and Shippers AS
ISOLATION for consideration. The promoters
only want the Endorsement Of the associ-
alton. believing that with this help they ca n
get what backing they need for the erection
of the plant.

CHANNEL is OPENED
FIREFIoHTER BREAKS THE ICE
IN UPPER POTOMAC.

The ice on the Potomac river from the
Long bridge to the Aqueduct has been
broken sufficiently to make channel for
the ice to float down with the tide and to
insure the avoidance Of an ice gorge and
the resultant backing up on the property
along the river front. This was done yes
terday afternoon by the fire boat Firefght-
er, which is also an icebreaker, and Com
missioner Mcfarland. who was aboard
the boat during her operation, stated today
that there is no reason for any alarm at
the present time.
The ice that covered the river was in
some places IA inches thick. The fire boat
started on her 'icebreaking'' trip short
distance below the old Long bridge and
worked north to a short distance below
the Aqueduct bridge. Below the old Long
bridge the ice was very thin and above the
Aqueduct the ice was not of suH1cient thick
ness to need any attention, but at the High
way bridge by actual measurement 1t was
eight inches, and a short distance south OF
the AQueduct 1t was fourteen inches thick
for some distance. The Firefghter demon
strated by its performance yesterday that
1t Is equally as good an icebreaker as 1t is
firefghter, and Commissioner Macfarland
expressed himself as highly pleased with
it's service. This neat craft was built to
serve in both capacities. 1t has high bow
that rides the ice and then brushes it, The
Commissioner stated that with the assist
ance of the police boat Nlgllanl, winch Is
equipped with steel ice PROV. this boat
can take care of any local ice situation
that might arise unless it is of unusual
proportions.
Chief Belt who was on the boat yester
day, was particularly pleased with the
work.
"She is an icebreaker from ice town."
he said
The Firefighter is of 3OO-horse power and
has a boiler capacity of 9OO-horse power.
In breaking the ice yesterday her speed was
little retarded.
