MOSElEY LANDS PASSENGERS
BUT NOT AT COLONIAL BEACH
WHARFS.
Privilege Successfully Denied by
Fred DIlaney-He Gets Arrested
for Talking at Mayor.

Something akin to excitement prevailed
at Colonial Beach yesterday afternoon
when an attempt was made by the steam
er Jane Moseley to land several hundred
excursionists at that resort.
Ownership of wharves at the beach is
ella imed by the Colonial Beach Company
and the Potomac and Chesapeake Steam
boat Company. which denied to the Jane
Moseley and others the privilege of land
ing passengers Manager st. John had
schooner moored to the freight wharf as
a blockade while the steamer ST: Johns
did like service at the passenger wharf
of the company.
When the Moseley arrived at the beach
the customary three blows of the whistle
were sounded. No attempt was made TO
remove the blockading fleet. Then the
Moseley sent forth several short toots,
followed closely by several more.
Persons from all parts of the resort
who were beyond view of the water front
hurried to the beach
Among those awaiting the Mosely was
Fred Dulaney, representing the Coiohlai
Beach Company. and sent down to see
that the latter companys interests were
upheld. The towns entire police force
was on hand TO preserve order upon
the wharf.
The mayor entered into discussion with
Dulaney as 10 the status OF the OWL
ership of the wharf. The mayor contend
ed vigorously that the wharf was the
property of the township. He. as the
town mayor insisted that the passengers
be allowed to land. Dulaney insisted
that they should not.
Taking offense at something the mayor
said. Dulaney replied with vigor and was
escorted to the courtroom in the town
hail. followed by several hundred eNcur-
sonists. After a brief hearing of the
charge alleging dsorderly conduct Du-
laney was fined s. and costs, which he
paid
The Moseley finally landed her pas
sengers at Classic Shore.
1t was stated by officials of the town
that efforts will Immediately be made to
have the status of the freight wharf le-
gally defined without delay.

a lawyer, appeared in court today for a
preliminary examination Capt. Scott,
who reached here yesterday from the
south. accompanied his sister on the
bridge in the jefferson market court

however. that no further developments in
the case were probable today. as Mrs.
Castles attorney Immediately asked for
and secured an adjournment of the ex-

that Capt. Scott had not had time to go
over the situation in detail with attor-
neys for the prisoner
Mrs Castles lawyer stated today that
arrangements had been made for her re-
lease on bail before night
Mrs Castle had intimated that she
might have a counter-charge to make
against Craig when the case came up
today, but it was said for her today that

purpose of formally waving eXamina-
ton
There was a meeting between Craig
and Capt. Scott in the corridor of the
courthouse after the adjournment of the
case today. but it failed to develop any
dramatic features. Capt. Scott had ig-
nored Craig but the latter approached
him and requested a word with him.
Capt. Scott acauiesced with apparent re-
luctance, and the two retired to Sc
cluded corner. where they conversed tor
several minutes Craig gesticulating eX-

Cleopatra and Corsets.
London Chronicle

From the London Chronicle.
If Cleopatra wore corsets she may rank
as a royal champion of them with Cath
crime de Medicis. who is credited with
having introduced the busked corset into
France from Italy. Male monarchs have
been less friendly. Joseph II of Aus
tria tried to discourage the corset by
making 1t part of the costume of con-
victed woman Of bad character; Napo-
leon, shaking his head over the tight
lacing of his day. told DR.. Corvisart that
he saw in it a sign of frivolous tastes
and a menace Of coming decadence. The
Restoration Kings. Louis XVIII and
Charles X. were equally hostile. For
merly, said the latter. France had been
full of Venuses, Dianas and Niobes. but
now there were only wasps. The revolu-
ton alone temporarily put down the gar
ment that has triumphantly defed kings.

Special Cahlegram 10 The Star.
LONDON, August 9.-The scheme for
the interchange of students between
Great Britain, the United States and
Canada. which was outlined last month,
has been warmly welcomed in representa-
tive circles in this country. The latest to
associate themselves with the movement
are Lord Rosebury, Lord Brassey. Lord
Grey, Lord Rayleigh, Sir Gilbert Parker
and Sir Oliver Lodge. 1t is regarded as
certain. therefore, that In view or the
response already received on both sides
of the Atlantic the movement, backed. as
it is by a powerful executive committee.
will be carried to a successful issue. AND
that little difficulty will be felt in ob-
tanning the $37. 500 needed for the British
section Lord Brassey is treasurer of the
executive committee.
announcement has been afforded by
the offer made by the transatlantic
steamship companies to provide special
facilities in the way of accommodation
to any students travelling in either di-
rection under the auspices of the stu
dents travelling bureau. The committee
is not without hope. too, of being able
to offer certain other scholarships IN
other parts of the empire.

Feet Become Smaller in New York

loose and wrinkled after I had been here
awhile. When I got new pair the other

set me thinking. and l hunted up several
friends who had likewise come here from
Western cities. All had the same thing
to tell-they were able to wear a shoe
from a half size to size and half
smaller than those required in Chicago,

reduced bv a sojourn in New York. but
