BIG LIQUOR SHIPMENTS
AHEAD OF NEW STATUTE
Customers in "Dry" Communities
Send in Large Orders to
Local Wholesalers.

In anticipation Of the impending sea
son Of "drouth" in certain dry COM
mun1ties. where some citizens receive ir-
rigation" materials by express or freight.
local bottlers and distillers are doing a
land Office business these days In order
to anticipate the new law regarding
shipments Of alcoholic spirits The statute
becomes effective January !. 1910. and
under its provisions all shipments OF
spiritus frument and kindred beverages
must bear upon the outside of the pack
ages exact descriptions OF the nature and
quantity OF the contents. Consequently
there will be more or less graceful exit
of the time-honored phrases, BE careful
glass" Handle with care etc, be
cause these must be superseded oy
Whisky, one quart Brandy. one gal
lon," etc. as the character of the GUS
toner's order may require
TT is not because our consignees as a
general thing object to having their
neighbors know what they are receiving,
that we have been using the handle with
care-glass' designations, SAID one local
wholesaler last night, but 1t ID because
we have found that the concealment OF
the natufe of the contents OF our pack
ages is the only way to protect the goods
from the more or less (mostly iess)
sc-,lpulous attentions of the hangers-on
about many country stations. Entirely
too many persons seem to regard whis-
XIV and other beverages as common
property, and when the new law beeomes
effective with the opening of the new
year it is certain the thefts of our ship
ments will be much more frequent than
formerly. Hence it is that scores of our
customers are taking the preoaution to
secure ample supplies before the arrival
of the new year. .
There is no disposition among ships
pers, bottlers and wholesalers Of liquors
to resist the terms of the. new law.
though it is practically certain that the
of the act will be tested
soon after it becomes effective.

RAILROAD BUILDING BEGINS.
Work on W., s. s. & G. E. r. Be-
gun Near Terminal,

Work on the new Washington, Spa
Spring and Gretna Electric Railway which
is expected to connect Baltimore and
Washington. was started day before yes
terday about three quarters OF a mile
outside this city along the Bladensburg
road.
The force at work numbers between
eighty and a hundred men.
Owing to the cold weather and the pos
sibility of encountering frosts it was
deemed inadvisable at this time of the year
to start the construction at what will be
the terminus of the road, near Fifteenth
AMI II streets northeast. Work in the
asphalt at the proposed terminus will be
begun later. probably with second force
of men. The work at present is confined
entirely to grading and will be steadily
continued until Bladensburg is reached.
All surveys between Washington bnd
Bladensburg have been completed. The
engineers are now perfecting their work
beyond Bladensburg.
