MAY REPAIR DERELfCT.
abandoned Schooner Emma Knowl.
ton lowed Into Port.

The hulk Of the American schooner
Emma Knowlton. which was abandoned
last April, and which has been drifting
about at sea since that time. may again
see active service with the coasting nest.
The vessel was picked UP last week By a
tugboat off the Bermuda Islands, and
towed into port. Her cargo of lumber
kept her afioat. The lumber IL in good
condition, and 1t is thought probable that
the hull can be repaired and refftted. The
Knowiton was built at Rockport, Ne, In
1891, and hailed from Edgartown. MAos.
The crew Of the Knowlton were rescued
by the schooner William r Wilson and
landed at Key West The Wilson Is nov

CATCH OF SHAD HEAVY.
But Prices We're Low and Herring
Catch Was Short.

Statistics regarding the number Of shad
ana herring received at the wholesale
fish market at 18th street wharf show q
heavy falling of in the catch Of herring
in the past season as compared with that
Of 1910, but considerable increase in
the catch of shad. According to the fig
ures compiled In a local flshhouse, the
receipts of herring in 1910 were 5.931 ,454.
and in 1911, 3,26S,S18, decrease of 2,662.-
636, due largely to the fact that the fish
went up Chesapeake bay and did not
come into the Potomac.
The catch Of shad was moro than q
third heavier In 1911 than In 1910, the
figures being 398,315 for last season,
against 90, s97 for the previous year. an
increase of 128,318 fish. Had shad brought
the fancy prices in the past season that
they did in 1910 the fishers would have
made big money. Shad, however, re-
manned low in price throughout the sea-
son, and this, combined with the great
shortage in the catch Of herring. caused
practically every operator of q fishing
shore on the Potomac to be out of pocket
after his seasons work. Some few drift
net fishermen made money because their
expense Of operation was very small.

The officials Of the Maryland Steel Com

all that remains afterward is the official
transfer of the vessel to her owners. The

ACTED IN GOOD FAITH.
When South Surrendered at Apo.
mattox Civil War Ended.

Replying to statements that 1t took tho
Spanish war to reunite the south and tho
north. and make the south loyal to the
nations flag, Representative Oscar Gala
way Of Texas, one OF the speakers At the
Bull Run anniversary celebrated Friday
declared that when Lee surrendered to
Grant at Appomattox the south acted IN
good faith.
when we laid down our arms We
surrendered to the nation one Of our
cherished ideals Of government" CON-
Union was made up of sovereign individu-
al states, each of which had gone into
the compact when 1t wanted to and had
right to go out when it got ready. But
we surrendered that honestly and took
our stand again, then and there. with
this Union, and from that sad hour TO
this good day we have been as loyal to
the Stars and Stripes as any man who
wore the blue. We believed our state
ment would be taken in good faith at its
face. We believed the north understood
our courage and honor. Now we are told
by gentleman from Iowa that they did
not.
HE does not know the history of
Texas, nor understand her philosophy II
he doubts her loyalty from the moment
Lee handed his sword to Grant at Ap-
pomattox.
I'VE have always realized, ever since
the war. this understanding or Injustice
but we have never attributed 1t to the
men who met Jackson at Bull Run, or
Lee in the seven days around Richmond.
or watched the vanishing lines Of gray
climb Gettysburg's slippery slopes. We
have thought 1t of these post-bellum war
riors who never got In until after tho
war was over, who never saw a firing
line, who could not tell the song OF q
ten-inch gun from ''Tara-boom-de-aye."
But once in. all hades can't wiring them

WILL LOAD FERTILIZER.
Four Masted Schooner Edith Will
Leave Today for Baltimore.

Tho big four-masted schooner Edith,
belonging to A H Bull & Co. Of New
York. which discharged q cargo Of phos-
phate rock at Alexandria over a month
ago. and which has been lying at anchor
of Alexandra since that time, will sail
today for Baltimore to load fertilizer for
Savannah. The placing out Of commits
sion Of the big vessel was due to small
demand for sailing craft and the low
rate Of freight being paid ON coal and
other cargoes out Of Baltimore, Norfolk
and Newport News, the owners Of the
vessel concluding that 1t was more eco
nomical to lay the boat up than to &C
cept freights at the figures offered Then,
too, the fresh water Of the Potomac, 1t
was stated. had beneficial effect upon
the bottom Of the vessel by killing all
the borer worms that might have gotten
into the wood while lying in southern
waters. Capt. Blake brought a crew over
from Baltimore yesterday and tug will

that port.

Considerable alarm Is felt by relatives
and friends Of c. Willard Barnsley over
the disappearance of the young man ten
days ago. from his home at Oakdale,
Montgomery county, Md. The whole
countryside is interested In the search
being made for him by the police of this
city and residents of Montgomery county,
and while his parents believe he may
have gone west, as he had often ex-
pressed desire to do, there are elements
in the case justifying grave fears for his
safety.
Why he should have left home SO un-
tremendously his parents and friends are
unable to understand Inspector Board
man was told last night the young man
had been disappointed at being unable to
attend a picnic the day he disappeared,
and the police official thinks it probable
this may have led him to the determine
ton to start west.
Father Is Anxious.
IF Willard has gone west and is do
ing WE'LL his father said yesterday, II
am perfectly satisfied, but l would like
to know where he is
1t is recalled by his father and uncle
that young Barnsley had not more than
$50 in his possession at the time he left
home. This sum. they realize, would not
take him far. and If he has gone west
they consider it surprising he has not
drawn on an account OF several hundred
dollars he has on deposit in a savings in
stitution at Sandy Spring.
No thought has as yet been given to
searching the woods on the theory he has
met with foul play. but some such effort
may be made, it is said, IL no word as
to the whereabouts Of the young man is
received soon.
Excites Widespread Interest.
Not since the disappearance of Philip
Haviland. a prosperous Montgomery
county miller, more than twenty years
ago. 1t Is said, has there been such wide
spread interest in a local mystery as
has been aroused by the dropping out
of sight Of Barnsley.
Barnsley's financial standing in the
community has always been excellent.
and he also is a social favorite in the
neighborhood Of his home. The missing
man owns a third interest In the farm
of Charles Barnsley. his uncle, and su-
perintended the working Of it.
A description OF BarnSley has been sent
to the different police stations of this
city. Yesterdays bulletin of the depart-
ment contained the description, and COP
les Of 1t were mailed to the police of
other cities.
