MOTION FOR NEW TRIAL
AS HOST FILED WITH BAR
Unusual Invitations Are Sent Out
to Fellow-Attorneys by
G. T. Dunlop.

An invitation unusual in character has
been received by many members of the
local bar and other friends Of Attorney
g. Thomas Dunlop to be present at a
stag gathering next Saturday after
noon on the lawns Of his home at Hayes
Md, near Chevy Chase lake. The bid
is in the form of a motion for a new trial
Last year Mr. Dunlop had served "le-
gal' summonses on his friends for a SINH
lar gathering, but failed to consult the
weather bureau. AS result of this over
sight Jupiter Pluvius got busy. and the
lawns presented the appearance Of a
morass and many hidden guests were I'M
willing to brave the Indictment conditions
For this reason Mr.. Dunlop seeks another
trial
The motion is properly Endorsed, with
the exception that in place Of the sigma
ture of the attorney appears a photo
graph of his home. Under the picture ap-
pears the request, the cook will please
serve instead of the regular FORM the
clerk will please file"
On another flap of the legal document
the guest is advised that the "eats, ETC.,
are to be same as on first trial"

SCHOONER HAS NARROW
ESCAPE FROM A WRECK
The Ada Ballenger Fouls on Trap.
Net Poles Set in the
Channel,

AFTER about a month spent in sum-
iner nshing on Chesapeake bay and it's
tributaries, the schooner Ada Ballenger,
capt. Faunce, has returned to Fairy
Landing, near Mount Vernon, to await
the coming of more favorable condi-
tlons. So far this season the catch of
the summer fishing fleet has been ex-
ceptlonally light and unless condi-
tons improve quickly it is more than
probable that most of the vessels en-
ployed in the work will be brought
back to this city to lay up.
capt. Faunce reports having had a mar
row escape from serious injury to his
vessel on her way back to this city
from the James river. The vessel was
underway one night early in the week
and was being showed along at good
speed by sail and gasoline engine Sud-
denly her Roadway was stopped and
the vessel seemed to rise out of the
water. Investigation showed that she
had run upon abandoned trap-net poles,
and. to get her free. men had to be sent
over the bow of the schooner with
saws and hatchets to cut the poles
from under her.
Soundings showed over thirty feet of
water. the poles being located directly
in the path of vessels bound to the
about the bow by fouling the poles,
which were six inches across the butt.
The existence of these distractions to
navigation will be brought to the at
tention of the engineer authorities in
charge of Chesapeake bay channels.

REPAIR SHIP AT SEA.
Schooner Emma F. Angel Able to
Continue Voyage Without Help.

The schooner Emma F. Angel, formerly
a frequent visitor to this port. was re-
ported by passing steamer in distress
about fifty-five miles southeast of Savan-
nah. The vessel, the report stated, was
leaking and when the steamer passed her
she had men over her sides calking. Her
crew made a good job of repairs, for she
did not go into port and yesterday was
reported passing Vineyard Haven on her
way to Boston with lumber from
Savannah.
Another old trader to this port. the
schooner Woodward Abrahams. is re-
ported at Key West in a leaking condi-
ton. The Abrahams is on her way from
Little Curacao, from where she sailed
June 4, with guano for Baltimore, and il
is supposed that she encountered heavy
gales that started her to leaking. Both

RIVER CRAFT INSPECTION
STlRS VESSEL OWNERS
Government Officers Busy Enforcing
Observance of Navigation
Laws-Fines Imposed.

Vessel owners who are careless in re-
gard to obeying the laws of navigation
as regards equipment on their craft and
not displaying proper running lights had
better beware and get busy to comply
fully with all regulations. Not only is
the Department of Commerce inspection
launch Tarragon in port here, engaged in
VeSSel-inSpection service, but the cutter
Apache of the Treasury navy, which
reached here Monday, is also making
inspections of vessels in the harbor, and
yesterday a number of tugboats and
other craft We're looked over by board
ing parties from the Apache, under the
command of junior officers.
The TarragOn is to remain in port here
the greater part of this week, but it is
expected that the Apache will leave here
today on a cruise on the bay.
1t is understood that the vessels board
ed by the Apache were found to have all
the equipment required by law, and if she
found any derelictions they were minor
ones. The Tarragon since Monday has
made five other reports of navigation
law violations. and the collector of Gus
toms has imposed fines, as a result, as
follows: Powerboat Rover, having no
means of extingushing burning gaso-
line, 500; power boat Somerset. no hail
ing port painted on stern, $40; an I'M
named launch not showing proper lights
while under way at night, 500: an I'M
ramed power boat. having six passengers
ABOARD and but one life preserver, 500,
and a canoist. not having lantern in boat
Z; night. 500.
Since the Tarragon came here a week
Il go she has made about twenty-five re-
ports of delinquents, and fines amounting
10 nearly $4,000 have been imposed. Most
e these finest are subject to reduction
ON presentation of mitigating evidence,
nd IL is probable that the total amount
that will be paid into the custom house
by delinquents will be much less than
the amount assessed against them under
the law.

The handsome flower beds which in
the past have decorated the terraces of
the Capitol building have been tenn
porarly discontinued. An effort is being
made, under the direction Of Elliott
Woods, superintendent of the Capitol
building and grounds to make the ter
races waterproof, so as to prevent water
from making its way into the basemen,
of the big building and making the
rooms and passages in the basement
damp.
While this work is going on it is not
possible to have the flower beds con.

had many inquiries lately from residents
of the capital asking why the flowers

T0MAKE CAPITAL
AFLYLESS CITY
Washington's Rapid Progress
Toward Pest determination
Subject of Comment.

| Washington is becoming a fiyless city
| This is the belief of inspectors Of the
| District of Columbia health department
who recently have submitted reports to
| the effect that fewer flies are to be seen
| in the capitals lunchrooms, groceries and
market places and that everywhere there
| are indications of a big reduction in the
| insect population.
| Similar reports have been received by
| The Star and the health department in
communications from citizens. While the
disease spreaderS still exist in sufficient
| numbers to constitute a serious menace
to the health of the city, there is believed
| to be little doubt that the constant war;
fare waged on the pests by The Star dur
ing the past three summers is producing
beneficial results.
1t may be years before a f1yless era is
rea ched, but it is the conviction of the
health authorities that if citizens will
continue to put forth the same efforts
that they have this summer to eliminate
the fly the pest horde will be SO much
reduced by another season or two as to
put Washington in the forefront of the
municipalities that succeed in placing a
check upon the activities Of this germ
spreading agency.
Aided by Business Men.
Undoubtedly it is true, say health de-
partment officials, that proprietors of
grocery stores, lunchrooms and markets
are making every effort to prevent the
insect from gaining access to their places
of business. Residents have been equally
as active in safeguarding their homes
against the fly danger. Traps posons
and screens have been used to ADVANTAGE
The fly is having a hard time of it and
finding the fight for existence more and
more difficult.
To start with, the thorough cleaning
given the city during sanitary week, in
April, eliminated many f1y-breeding
places. Since then the winged death
messengers have found it a difficult task
to establish a foothold anywhere. while
their efforts to gain entrance to homes
and favorite feeding places, such as
grocery stores and lunch rooms, have, in
many instances, been futile.
WaShingtonians have come to realize
that the fly is one of mans most danger
determination to entirely abolish the
pest, if possible.
Householders Well Informed.
knowledge of the fly no longer is con-
fined to scientists, but the average house
holder knows that as many as 100000
germs may be found on the legs of a very
innocent-looking housefiy. 1t is a matter
Of common knowledge that dead animals.

use are all happy hunting grounds for
