CHARTERED TO TOW STONE.
Tug James O. Carter Begins Service
to Nomini Creek Tomorrow.

The tug James o. Carter of the Tay-
Tor fleet has been chartered by the Wash
ington Stone Company to tow stone
laden lighters from Occoauan. Va. to
Nomini creek. where the stone is to be
used in the lengthening of the break
water that prevents sand from drifting
into the dredged channel through the bar
at the mouth of the waterway. The Car
ter will enter upon the new service to-
morrow and the tug u. NJ. Key. which
has been laid up since the return of the
Garter from the James river, will go
into commission to do towing about the
of this city. The Washington Stone Com
pany has a contract with the United
States engineers Office at this city to
supply a large quantity of stone for the
work at Ncmini. and the Carter will be
employed hy them for two weeks or
longer iii delivering the material. Guam
titles of stone from the Occoquan quar-
ries are also being sent in barges to the
mouth OF the Rappahannock river and
to PowelIs creek. Va. where it is used in
channel Improvement work.
The breakWater at Nomini. which is to
be made higher and longer, was built
about fifteen years ago. when the channel
through the sand bar across the mouth
OF the creek was made. Since that time
1t has several times been heightened. as
the land behind IL makes and the point
OF sand extends out into the river. Since
the wall was built, it is stated that sew
eral acres of new land has been made
by the wind drifting sand against the

DISCHARGES LAST ICE CARGO.
Schooner Leaves to Load Coal for
New England Port.

The four-masted schooner Katherine d.
Perry, which unloaded about 1.sto tons
of the Maine at the 9th street wharf of
the American Ice Company. completed
the discharsing of her cargo Yesterday
and sailed for Norfolk to load coal for a
New England port She is the last
ice vessel 10 come here this season. and
may be the last to come here at ALL as
the managers of the American Ice Com
pany are figuring that under normal con-
dtions the output of the ice plants will
supply the local demand. This. however,
was their calculation for the present
summer. but they were forced to bring
about 1900 tons from Maine in the past
two months and even now it is not at all
sure thing that they will not have to
call upon Baltimore for ice before the
hot weather is over. The bringing of the
Maine ice here was due to the unprece-
denied hot summer and to the fact that
one of the largest ice-making plants in
the city met with an accident that put it
out Of commission, SO that it could not be
repaired in time to be of service while
the heavy demand for ice was on. Seven
schooners and a big barge. more vessels
than have brought ice here in several
years, unloaded at the 9th street wharf
this summer.

Hero of preeenf

Unless vessels with oysters aboard

supply of the bivalves on the half shell
Will have 10 go 10 the oyster houses in
stead of getting them from a vessel and

Friday several, vessels with Potomac
oysters aboard came into port and yes
terday one or two came in. The de-
mand was heavy and before noon the YES
sells had all sold out and were on their
way back down the river to load again
The oyster handlers at the wharf do not
look for the arrival of oyster-laden YES
sells until Monday. though it Is by no
means certain that one or two will not
come into port today.
The cargoeS the vessels are bringing
are small. the vessel masters do not
care 10 take chances of bringing heavy
cargoeS and have = large portion of them
spoil an their hands before they can lie
sold. AS consequence. with even an
ordinarily good demand the vessels soon
sell out.

Days of Usefulness of the Express
and Bixler Declared to Be Past.

The old schooner Express. which for
over a half century had been plying on
Chesapeake bay and its tributaries, has
made her last trip, and is to be wrecked
for the material in her. When she was
bought by Capt. Charley Mckenney of
Alexandria, about ten days ago. it was
announced that she would be put in con-
dition for service with the oyster fleet
on the river. Capt. Mckenney has, how
ever determined to wreck her and the
work of tearing the old vessel to pieces
will be started this week. She is lying in
the dock at the foot of Cameron street,
Alexandria.
Another we'll known old craft whose
DAYS of usefulness are over and which
will also be wrecked, is the schooner
William III. II. Bixler, which, until about

oyster runners on the river. She is ~
ing dismasted in the dock at the foot of
