Automobile Road From Coyington to Bay St.
Louis Strong Probability.

4 press telegram from Covington to
the Picayune Wednesday morning says
that from present appearances Coving-
ton is to be point on first-class motor
road from Baton Rouge to Gulf Coast
resorts, and, as far as the roads of that
section that have been gone over are
concerned, they will give the autoists
few bumps. The route, as near as can
be ascertained, will be from Baton
Rouge to Denham Springs, thence to
Springville, Pontchatoula, or Ham
mond, MadisonvilIe and Covington.
From Covington the route will lay
northwestward to Sun postoffice and
to Pools Bluff, where it will
cross Pearl River and turn south
east through the hills OF Hancock
County to either Bay ST. Louis or Gulf
port. There are only four miles OF this
road through Pearl River swamps that
are at all bad in rainy weather or WIN
ter, but at this season it is almost an
ideal road. The route through the par
ish is over roads recently put in fine
condition by machines worked with con-
Wet labor. Persons who have travelled
over the entire distance, including the
roads in Mississippi, are loud in their
praise of the route as outlined above.
The more northern route from Ham
mond to POOLS Bluff, which is the low
est crossing on Pearl River, is beset
with many difficulties, some of which
is the necessity of travelling most of the
distance over unworked community
roads.

members Of the Balinger- Pinchot In
vestigating committee who signed the
majority report which absolved Secre-
tary Ballinger from the charges made
by CLIFFORD Pinchot and Louis Claws.
are not disposed to take any further
action and will not do anything to
bring their report up in either house for
APPROVAL or disapproval. The majority
members take the position that the IN
vestigating committee was merely APP
pointed to investigate and report. and
that having done that nothing further
can be expected from them and that
congress is not called upon to accept
or reject any one OF the three reports
submitted, any more than it would be
called upon to accept or reject report
from the secretary of the interior, or
the secretary of agriculture.
This attitude on the part Of the ma
jority members, indicating that they
are more than willing that the entire
controversy should be regarded as
ended. is certain to precipitate row
in at least one branch Of congress and
possibly in both houses. The demo-
cratic members Of the committee in
the house are unwilling to have con-

is probable that after waiting rea-

sidefation Of the reports. Democrats
believe that he is also certain to be
overruled in which event an appeal
from the decision of the chair will be
made and If 1t is carried the democrats |
will then endeavor to have their report |
of censure substituted for the report |
