BULL MOOSE
Continued from First Page)

for the Bull Moosers on Nov. sth,
over every other party in the field,
not only nationally but in the
State, in the county, in the city
and in the precinct. Rev. Cook
ingham is an orator of undoubted
ability, little bit on the spectacu-
lar order like the Big Bull Moose,
called Teddy" for short, but that
is one of the traits of the party and
is o. X.
Among the other speakers who
attracted special attention were
John L. Slattery and Walter Shan
ley. Mr.. Slattery, in accepting the
nomination for county attorney
said among other things that he
was making sacrifice in accepting
the nomination, but as the party
wanted him he had concluded to
accept the nomination and thanked
the convention for same.
Walter Stanley, in accepting
the nomination for clerk OF courts,
said that he telt he was competent
to fill the position and that if elect
ed he would conduct the Office to
the Office to the best of his ability.
From his remarks one would hard
ly Judge that he imagined he was
making any sacrifice, but that in
fact he would be glad to resign his
position as register of the U. S.
Land Office at Glasgow and slip
into the neatly upholstered chair
of clerk of courts in the court house
for nice four years term. Walter
likes variety in office-but always
in Office.
Cooney the Fox. when accepting
his nomination for assessor, cut
his remarks pretty short, but said
if elected he would treat every one
alike, whether friend or foe. Mr..
Fox did not seem to want to
change from one Office to another,
the Office OF assessor was good
enough for him, and as long as the
Republicans did not want him any
longer he was willing TO accept the
nomination from the Bull Moosers
and thanked them for II.

HAVOC WROUGHT By ICE
Many Wharves Carried Away and
Buoys Displaced by Float
ing Cakes.

Food supplies and freight from Balti-
more and other river and bay points
are beginning to reach Washington by
way Of the Potomac river. The heavy
Ice Is beginning to give way before the
prows Of steamers. and the long Idle spell
for rivermen seems to be at an end.
The steamer City of Milford of the Po-
tomac and Chesapeake line, which ar
rived here from the lower river Friday
afternoon late, brought up over 200 cases
Of eggs. besides several hundred pack
ages of dressed poultry of all kinds. a
large quantity Of dressed pork and other
country produce. all consigned to local
commission men and merchants for the
Washington market. The steamer Wake
field, which arrived here last night, also
had a full cargo of eggs and other coun-
try produce, enough, 1t would appear, to
keep prices down for several days These
are the first steamboats, to arrive here
from points on the Potomac and its trib-
utarieS in several weeks.
Shipments Down River Heavy.
Shipments to the lower river from this
city. and particularly from Alexandria.
are vecs heavy. and will continue to be
so for about two weeks. until the mer-
chants down the river rep,enish their
stocks. which have become greatly de-
p.eted by the long ice embargo prevent
ing supplies being brought them by the
steamers. Three trips have now been
made by the steamboats,, and they are
not only carrying flour, meat, sugar, cOf-
Zee and other neceSsaries, but also large
quantities of hay and feed of all kinds
for the farm stock. There is still piled
on the wharf at Alexandria enough
freight to load the steamers for two or
three trips without taking into account
the orders that are piing into the whole
sale Srocers and other supply houses.
The Maryland, Delaware and Virginia
line. between Baltimore, the lower Poto-
n:ac landings, and this city, has resumed

Baltimore yesterday evening, due to ar

expected to bring UP a load of country

May Have to Be Rebuilt.

WINTHROP. the marine corps wharf at
Stump Neck, Va, Somerset Beach. Ma
thias Point and Classic Shore wharves
are either carried away entirely or are
so badly damaged as to necessitate their
being rebuilt. The excursion pier at
Colonial Beach escaped with but little
injury, but the freight wharf has been
considerably damaged and much work
will have to be done to put 1t in condition
for handling heavy freights. Chaptico
and Bushwood wharves. In the Wicomico
river. also are badly damaged, the
having been. carried away, leaving the
pier heads standing out in the river.
Liverpool Point, Dents and Riverside, on
the Maryland side Of the Potomac, which
were reported damaged. escaped harm, as
did the wharves in Machodoc creek. and
Nomini creek, Va, and Port Tobacco
Md. 1t is stated many of the damaged
wharves will be repaired as soon as pos
sible, but 1t may be that some of the
placed.
The ice this winter did more damage to
wharf property than has been done by it
for many years past. Not only were
many wharves taken away. but the drift
let has entirely destroyed the efficiency
of the buoy system of the river. With
but few exceptions practically every buoy
on the main channel Of the river has
been moved, some Of them several miles
away frcm their proper position, and it
will require several days of steady work
by the lighthouse service steamers to re-
store aids to navigation to their proper
places. This work will be done some time
in the coming month, as soon as buoy
tender is available foi the service.

IN CANALS BEHALF
Resolution for Inquiry Into
Ship Trust Charges.
INTRODUCED IN THE HOUSE
empowers Interstate and Foreign
Commerce Committee to Make a
Thorough Investigation.
INTRODUCED IN THE HOUSE

In an effort to preserve and promote
the interests of our government by the
protection and development of the full,
fair. open and profitable use Of the
Panama canal by the ships Of commerce
and war Of all people and all nations"
the House interstate and foreign COM
merce committee yesterday embarked on
general investigation OF charges of
ship trusts. subsidies and other rumors
of improperly In the usage Of the canal
after 1t Is opened.
The resolution was introduced by the
chairman Of the committee. Represent
ative Adamson OF Georgia, yesterday. 1t
recited the need OF a thorough inquiry
into the charges that the canal will be
used by transcontinental railroads to
Stif1e competition in freight rates 1t
of the government executive depart
ments, to summon witnesses and put
them under oath and to get papers and
other information throwing light on the
matter. The result of the investigation
will be in recommendation. for laws APP
propriate to the needs disclosed by the
inquiry.
Mr.. Adamson in his resolution says:
1T has appeared In considering legisla-
ton for the operation OF the Panama
canal that combinations. conferences
conventions. partitions OF ports. traffic
routes and various kinds Of agreements
exist among the owners Of vessels as
well as in the ownership of terminal
facilities in many ports. by and through
all of which the usefulness and prof
liable operation Of the Panama canal
would be impaired and the government
of the United States embarrassed In the
effort to carry out its policy of keeping
the canal free and open TO the vessels
of all nations on terms Of entire equality.
SO that there shall be no discrimination
in respect to conditions or charges or
| traffic or otherwise
Matter Of Railroads.
ut is charged that the same or similar
danger is to be apprehended from threat
ened efforts of the railroads to retrieve
or prevent lawful traffic by its being
diverted through the canal, by operat-
ing their own ships through the Panama
canal for the purpose Of destroying OF
lessening competition.
| 1T is alleged that the same danger II
threatened by the payment or promise
directly or indirectly by certain nations
| of tolls charged to their vessels on the
canal. the same to be accomplished pS
bounties. gratuities. subventions or SUD-
| sides. thereby giving to their vessels an
advantage In the conditions OF tramt
through the canal contrary to our policy
and contrary to the interests OF tint
