sHAD ARE BREAKING RECORDS.
Trawlers From Capes Making Big
Catches on Patuxent.

SoLoMONS, Nd. April 14.-Fisher-
men at the mouth Of the Patuxent Riv-
er are revelling in the biggest run of
shad and herring known hereabouts
for many years. Trap nets are in
many cases found so crowded with fish
as to make It almost impossible to
raise the nets.
While the run of herring is unusu-
ally large, that of shad is breaking all
records and offers a marked contrast
to the scarcity of last season. Half a
score OF steam trawlers, finding poor
fishing on their usual grounds at the
Capes, are getting plenty OF fsh In
these waters

SMYRNA, Del, April 14.-There

for the fishermen down the bay and
for those who have been casting their

too chilly the past week for shad to
run, but there is such an anxiety
among the men to be on hand when
there is a run, that many inconveni-

and Newport News. For when the
Stonega and other companies in the
latter fields begin to send 5000
600 tons OF export and steamer coal
to Charleston, Wilmington or Sava-
nah, in addition to the increasing
amount now drawn from the fields
by the inland cities mentioned and
numerous other industrial centers,
practically every railroad in these
States will be compelled 10 spend
several million OF dollars in bring
ing up their facilities to hardle il
They will require a large amount of
new and better rolling stock, new
siding, larger terminals, loading
piers, and they will require many
more office men in their transpor-
tation and traffic departments, be-
sides a small army of additional
employees to deliver this new ton
unless this export and steamer fuel
from Southwest Virginia is defect
ed to the Ohio and Mississippi riv-
ers route to the canal zone, big
traffic movement is soon to start
across the States of North Carolina,
South Carolina and Georgia
Good harbors are partly a provis-
ion of nature, but without good
warfage, lighterage and reasonable
port fees, no port will attract the
steamer coal trade in competition
with those near by which have bet
ter facilities and lower charges. II
therefore, the Carolinas and Georgia
are to enjoy the fruits of a large
coal traffic within their territories
and at their ports, it is time pre-
parations be made for it. Taking
Charleston first, it is certain that no
vessel would put in there for fuel
at the present time. In the first
could not for the lack of dredging,
go alongside the wharves; and. Sc
cond, the port fees. pilotage and OF
her charges, are about double those
at Norfork. Before coal peirsare
built at Charleston, and before yes
sci fueling is done there, these
charges must be reduced. Other
wise Norfolk will get the business
of loading vessels Pacific bound, and
New Orleans will fuel those from
Pacific waters, en- route to North
rather Southwest Virginia and Eas-
tern Kentucky coal will be barged
through New Orleans to the Canal
itself. If this begins, then, in the
language of Potash and Perimutter
Carolina and Georgia ports may
kiss themselves good-by'' to ex
port and fuel coal business, and
everyone of the inland cities will
suffer the consequences.

BEATmE's CRIME WAS pICrURE
A Confession Left For The Perusal
of His Family Alone.

Richmond, Va, Dec. 2 The
News-Leader here to-day prints the
outline of what is said to have been
detailed and private confession
left by Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., for
the perusal of his family alone. Ac-
oording to this alleged confession
Beattie decided two weeks before
the crime was committed to kill
his wife. The details of the muir
der co-incident almost precisely with
the theory of the case set out by
the State at the trial. Beattie in
duced his cousin, Paul, to buy
the gun and hid behind a stump on
the Midlothian turnpike.
He is said to have stated that
he shot his wife full in the face as
she was stepping from his automo-
bile, and that she fell backward in
to the road. Beattie denied that
he first knocked his wife down, a
story which gave him much annoy
ance, implying cowardice." Beattie
Is also said to have denied that he
sat upon his wife's body during the
wild drive to Richmond. He is said
to have asserted that his marriage
was comparatively loveless and was
forced upon him by his fathers
earnest wishes.

Cross Mountain mine, i'll which
there was an explosion to-day, be-

his wife had last night. When he
awoke this morning and prepared to
go to his daily task in the mine.
Mrs. Larue told him she would
not prepare dinner for him to car
ry to the mines, as she did not
want him to work to-day. She
then recited a dream she had, CIV
ing this as her reason for asking
that her husband stay out of the
mine.
Mrs. Larue said that last night
she dreamed she saw scores Of
miners, with their heads blown off, 4,
being carried out OF the mine en-
trance; that she and her little
children land she has severaD
stood at the mines mouth, watch
ing the horrible sight Despite the
sfact that he had not missed a day
from his work for many months, he
was prevailed upon to-day to remain
out of the mines. 1t was only a
short time after Mrs. Larue told
of her dream until the explosion
was announced. With tears of Joy
streaming down her face, che en-
braced her husband and thanked
God that she had had the dream
last night.
