TAFT REPUD|ATEs LETTER.
President Taft Sends Message to
Congress in Regard to Controller
Bay Controversy.

In terms OF the most bitter denun.
citation for those who in the intensity
OF their desire to besmirch all who in.
vest" in Alaska, Operate upon the
minds OF weak human interests and
prompt fabrication of false testi-
mony," President Taft yesterday told
the Senate the circumstances leading
ND to the entry OF harbor rights on
Controller Bay, Alaska, by Richard
S. Ryan. and in virulent invectiye re-
pudiated the famous dick to Dick"
letter.
The message was almost Rooseveltian
in its bandying Of the shorter and
uglier" word.
when I made this ORDER" the mes
sage declared, Il Tas aware that the
condition of public opinion interference
to investments in Alaska, famed by
charges OF fraud-some we'll founded
and others Of an hysterical aud unjust
or false character-would lead to an
atsa,k on it and to the questioning OF
my motives in signing it.
"The acrimony OF spirit and the in
tense malice that have been engendered
in respect to the administration OF the
government 10 Alaska, and in the con-
sideration of measures proposed for her
relief aud tho wanton recklessness and
eagerness with which attempts have
been made to besmirch the characters
OF high officials having to do with the
Alaskan government, and even OF per-
sons net in public life, present con-
dltion that calls for condemnation and
reuuiles that the public be warned of
the decentralization that has been pro-
duced by the hysterical suspicious OF
good people and the unscrupulous
and corrupt Misrepresentation Of the
wicked. The helpless state to which
the credulity Of some and the malevo-
lent scandalmongering OF others have
brought the people OF Alaska in their
struggle for its development ought to
give the public pause, for until iuster
aud fairer view be taken, investment
in Alaska, which is necessary to its de-
yelopment, will be impossible, and
honest administrators and legislators
will be embarrassed in tho advocacy
and putting into operation Of those
policies in regard to the territory which
are necessary to its progress and pros
perity."
The message denied any secrecy in
regard to the executive order opening
up the Controller Bay lands to entry;
declared that the public interest was
protected by the limitations OF the
present Law; and declared that it was
beyond range OF possibility that the
Morgan uggenheims should desire to
control Controller Bay, when they have
expended vast sums for the harbor at
CordoYa.

MANASSAS HAS FINE SHOW.

Alexandrians who returned last
night from Manassas declare the horse
show to be the best ever held in that
city. 1t opened yesterday under ideal
weather conditions and with the largest
attendance that the show has ever had
on the first day Of its exhibitions. A
good shower on Monday afternoon put
the show grounds in excellent condl-
ton, alIaying the dust to a large extent,
and, the weather today being cool, made
it possible to try out the endurance OF
the horses exhibited in the numerous
driving classes without heating them to
any considerable extent.
Although the entries in many OF the
classes, both harness and hunters, were
numerous, owing to the splendid man
agement of the paddocks and show
ring the classes were all Judged on
time and the awards promptly made.
The Judging in the main met with
favor, both by those witnessing the
performances and by the exhibitors,
though in some instances the latter
showed their displeasure in the awards
made.
Among the exhibitors from Alexan-
dria are Mrs. James Birkett whose
Prett yBoy" won first in Glasses II and
y for hackney bred colts. and Miss E.
NJ. Birkett whose Lord Lofty" came
second in Glass II.

APPEAL TO THE SUPREME COURT.

The Supreme Court OF the United
States will soon pass upon the constitu-
tionality of the detention of District
prisoners at Occoquan. In the test
case of William Alexander. decided
adversely recently by the Circuit Court
OF the United States for the eastern dis.
trict of Virginia at Alexandria, ar ap-
peal was taken yesterday directly to
the Supreme Court instead Of the Cir.
cult Court Of Appeals at Richmond.

legal questions involved, and the ne
cessity of an early decision, Assoc
ciate Justice Horace H. Lurton yester-
day signed an order at the request
of Attorney Matthew E. O'Brien, cit
ing Supt. w. Fl. Whitaker to show
cause within 80 days why the iudg-
ment OF the Alexandria court should
not be reversed. The superintendent
answer will not be heard until fall,
however.
A similar case. now pending in the
District Court of Appeals will be held
in allegiance until decision is reached
in the Supreme Court.

HABITS OF THE SHAD.
Editor Gazette:

Kindly tell me something about the
habits OF the shad, and are they ever
caught in the ocean? J. W.
The shad is a member OF the her
ring family and the largest of its kind.
They are natives of the Atlantic Ocean
though they we're introduced into the
rivers OF the Pacific coast about forty
years ago, and are now said to be
abundant there also. They live in the
ocean comparatively near to the shores.
it is believed, and ascend the rivers in
the spring OF the year only, aud solely
for the purpose of reproduction. The
movement in the spring are con-
trolled largely by the temperature OF
the waters and takes place chiefly when
the waters are between Sc and GO de-
grees Fahrenheit. The movement OF
the schools begins in the southern dis
tricts first and progresses northward as
the season advances. The chief runs
in the Potomac occur in April; in the
Susuuehanna and the Delaware in
April and May; in the Kennebec in
May and June. The males predomi-
nate during the part OF the season and
during the earlier latter part the fe-
males or roe shad.
The eggs are deposited anywhere
above brackisb waters, at the mouths
OF creeks or at the head Of rivers.
After the spawning, the shad. which
are lean and starved, begin to move
seward. The young remain in the
rivers much longer, not finally going to
sea until the fall. They remain at sea
for three OF four years, until they ma
ture, and then begin, like the others,
to ascend the streams at the spawning
season. A peculiar characteristic is
that they invariably ascend the same
streams in which they themselves were
propagated. During the last few
years, when the demand on the ordi-
nary supply OF shad has been such as
to reduce the numbers, they have been
largely kept up by artificial propaga-
fion. which in the main, has been
FsYn successful; tho methods OF hatch

RAB|D DOG IS KILLED.
Canine Captured by Dog Catchers
has Hydrophobia-- bites Other
D0gs.--F0urteen Shot.

Six more dogs were captured yester-
day by the dog catchers and when they
we're locked in the pen at the city gas
works one OF them displayed symp.
toms OF being affected with rabies, for
it is said to have bitten every dog then
in the pen. Officers Garvey and Raw
let, foreseeing the danger anyone would
incur in redeeming any one OF the
dogs, Immediately dispatched all of
them, fourteen. The head of the dog
suspected of being affected with rabies
was severed from its body and sent to
DR.. James J. Garyey, veterinary
surgeon for examination. DR.. Gar
vey pronounced it to be a
genuine case OF rabies. 1t is probable
that this dog had bitten other dogs in
the sity before it was captured. The
rabid dog was picked up on north
Henry street near the vinegar factory.
The dog wagon was not on the streets
today.

Only go licenses were issued last year,
and only TIC in the year 1909. The
police have ascertained the names of
most persons owning dogs, who before
long will be compelled to appear in
the police court and answer for their
delinquencies. Yesterday Officer Gar
vey asked the Auditor if Mr.. ---( nam
ing resident OF the Third ward) had
paid his license, and upon being told
mo, the officer said, He has two bull
dogs" In this particular case, and
there are others, both Officer Garvey
and the Auditor recalled that the citi-
zen was in the Police Court in 1908
for the non-payment of license.
Mayor Paff says if any escape it will be
no fault OF his, as he has tried to make
it clear to the members OF the police
force that those who pay willingly ex-
