HALF MILLION
 IN MOTOR CARS
Is Contained In Record Shipment of 75 Cars to Howard Auto Company from Buick Factory; Five Cars to Phoenix.

The largest single shipment of first class freight ever made in the United States will cross the continent, begin ming Monday in Flint Michigan from the motor plant of the Buick factory ard ending with the Howard automo- bile company in San Francisco. The shipment, which is made under one bill of lading consists of 375 1913 Bucks, valued at nearly half a million dollars The shipment is extra. About 15O cars a week go to the Howard company but such was the demand this year. it was found impossible to deliver all the motors required by the greedy Califor- nia motorists.
 It takes 75 double decked cars, in two trains to transport the monster shipment of automobiles. The load will be some time making the long journey, as large shipments must move slowly.
 A part of that immense shipment will be diverted to Arizona. Ferguson and Mohn, the state agents for the Buick expect five carloads out of the trains. They will arrive some time within the two weeks before Christmas.
 The 1912 shipment breaks the other record of the Buick factory, made last year when 5 cars containing 254 ma chimes went west to the coast buyers.

Fire which started in stack of hay under q shed on East Jackson street between Fourth and Fifth streets at one o'clock this morning was discovered by Santa Fe special policeman Harris just as it was reaching two horses tied under the shed.

 Having accomplished the work of rescuing the horses, Harris then turned in an alarm from box 48 The department turned out quickly and after throwing water for a few minutes eXtinquished the blaze Several small brick residences in the immediate vicinity were menaced by the flames which presented a lurid glare and gave the impression of a much larger fire being in progress The cause of the fire is unknown.

Wants to Give Historic Prize
Also Favors Preservation of
Old Record.

The Peggy Stewart Tea Party Chap
ter, D. A. R.. held its regular month
ly meeting yesterday at the home Of
the Regent, Miss Agnes Walton. The
session was not long enough for all
the business on hand, some having to
be carried over until the February
meeting.
Much time was consumed in the
discussion of an effort to preserve the
valuable and beautiful old records Of
Anne Arundel county. the most com
plete in the State and next to the old
est. These old records. some hand
somely bound in Vellum, are now in
the cellar of the Court House in dam
ger of destruction from fire and damp
ness. The committee already ap-
pointed was advised to wait upon those
in authority to see what can be done
in this matter.
A committee was appointed to con-
fer with the Rev. Joseph p. Nc
Conas, ID. D., rector of St. Anne's
Church, with regard to the clergyman
to be invited to preach the sermon at
the annual patriotic service to be
ehld in that historic old church on the
Sunday nearest Washington's birth
day.
The Chapter gave its hearty endorse
ment TO the work of trying to secure

lngton through the Congress of the
United States as an aid to the better
ment of the condition of INDECENT and
deficient children. Mrs. William s.
Welch has been appointed to repre-
sent the Chapter on the committee

ical prize to the children of the public

terest in the history of their city and
State, the prize to be awarded on
Maryland Day" if the details can be
satisfactorily arranged.
A letter was received from Miss
Alice Buchanan, first regent of the
Chapter, at whose home it was organ
lied in December, 1898, inviting the
Chapter to her home in Baltimore for
luncheon.
Two names were proposed for mem
bership, after which the meeting ad-
journed.

COMMITTEES ARE NAMED
Anne Arundel Well Looked After
in Assignments in Both House
And Senate.
FURRY In THE HOUSE.
Metzerott and 0sbourn Feel Aggrieved
That They Were Apparently Slight

With the long delayed announcing of
committee assignments in the House
and Senate made during last nights
session, Anne Arundel was shown to
have been we'll looked after in both
the House and Senate.
Senator Bells, in the upper house,
was appointed by Senator Price to
eight committees, all of more or less
Importance. Chief of his assignments,
however, was that to the Finance Com
mittee, which is one Of the most i'm
portant in the Senate. With his APP
pointment to this committee, Anne
Arundel is represented thereon for the
first time in many years.
In addition to this place, Senator
Bells was given place on the i'm
portant Chesapeake Bay and Tributar-
les, the Temperance Committee, Elec-
tions Committee and the Committee
on Education and on Executive Nomi-
nations. Besides these assignments
he is made chairman of the Commit
tee upon Inspections and on the Public
Buildings at Annapolis body.
In the House of Delegates, Speaker
Trippe was particularly kind to Anne
Arundel, in giving Messrs. Watkins
and Hancock unusually good appoint
ments, while at the same time look
ing out for Messrs. Wilkinson and
Stewart.
The assignments of the members of
the lower house from Anne Arundel
were as follows:
Mr.. Benjamin Watkins-Ways and
Means, Public Buildings, Agriculture,
Roads and Highways and Labor.
Mr.. Frank L. Hancock-Education,
Corporations, Chesapeake Bay and
Tributaries, Section "a of Article of
the Constitution and Revaluation of
Property.
Mr.. Joseph w. Wilkinson-Temper-
ance. Railroads and Canals, Immigra-
tion and Insurance Loans.
Mr.. J. n. Stewart-Expiring Laws
Currency, Immigration, Federal Rela-
tions and Public Hygiene.
The committees as selected in the
Senate were considered fair and good
selections, and brought no dissatis-
faction. Such was not the case in at
least two instances in the House,
however, where Mr.. Metzerott, of
Prince Georges, Republican, took
offense and declined to serve on the
two unimportant committees to which
he had been assigned while Mr.. Os-
bodrn kicked over being named to the
Temperance Committee and declined
to serve there.
The Craftsmanship Of the Finance
Committee in the Senate and the
Claim Commit se in the House, carry
ing with them the majority floor lead
ership in each place went to Senator
Peter j. Campbell and James A. Nc
Quade, respectively.
= Following the announcement of the
committees last night the House and
Senate both adjourned until s O'Clock
on next Monday night

CASE OF CAPT. S|MMS
Suffering Of Family on Schooner
in the Harbor But Ecebound.
RELIEF GIVEN FAMILY.
All Aboard III Navy Surgeon in At
. tendance Capital Sends Help.

This forenoon the schooner Daisie,
Capt. C. B. Simms, which is ice bound
off Horn Point, was visited by Mr..
George E. Plander who is investigating
the needs of the poor for this paper,
and by a representative of an Annap-
oils beneficial order.
They found all aboard the schooner
sick and in need of help. A surgeon
from the Naval Academy is giving
medical attention to the sick ones.
Besides the wife and baby there are
four girls, the oldest being l6 yaers
and others 9, and years, repective-
ly, and boy of II. Mr.. Plander ap-
propriated a considerable sum for the
purchase of coal and wood, groceries
and clothing.
The case of the Simms' family is
one of the worst that has been re-
ported since the freeze. Capt. C. B.
Simms, a Civil War veteran, with
his wife and six children, was caught
in the freeze while moving from his
former home at Cape May, N. j., to
Norfolk on Captain Simms' schooner
Daisy.
With all his household goods aboard
and enough provisions and fuel to
cover the trip to Norfolk, Captain
Simms started from Cape May about
ten days ago, coming by way of the
canal. He was caught by the freeze
in the harbor and now the vessel is
hemmed in off Horn Point, Eastport,
near Annapolis. Fuel and provisions
both gave out and upon reaching An
napolis the whole family was sick
with the grip and heavy colds. Cap
tain Simms was threatened with pneu-
monia. There is 16-year-old colored
deck-hand with the outfit.
The oldest boy came ashore at
Eastport and begged for food and fuel
Mr.. w. I. Willis and other residents
| of the village visited the boat and
cared for the voyagers. Captain
Simms is a Mason and member of
other lodges, and these helped while
the Naval Academy authorities gave
medical aid. Fuel and provisions were
sent out from the old frigate Hart
ford, of Civil War fame, on which
| Captain Simms served a part of his
nine years in the navy.
! Mrs. Ridout, near whose place the
schooner is ice bound, has given ma
| terial aid to the distressed family. and
a representative of one of the local
orders visited the family with The
Capital man today and helped to
alleviate the distressing conditions.
The Simms family have been amply
/ cared for.
