TO FILL IN SWAMP LAND
Material for U. S. Experimental
Farm to Be Dredged From
River Next Year.

According to report, no dredging will
be done on the Virginia channel above
the Highway bridge until some time in
the coming year, and then the dredged
material will be pumped upon a large
area of low-lying land belonging to the
Department of Agriculture farm on the
Virginia side Of the river, under the
hills Of Arlington. 1t is proposed to
raise the level Of this swamp land above
tidewater level, so that it can be cul-
tivated and used In the experimental
farming Of the government.
The Virginia channel to Georgetown is
badly in need Of deepening, as there are
places In it above the Highway bridge
where less than seventeen feet Of water
can be found on an ordinary high water.
To bring coal-laden barges out Of George
town it Is now necessary to wait for
the best of the tide. and then they have
to be dragged through foot or eighteen
inches of soft mud in the bed OF the
river.
1t has only been about five years ago
since the channel to Georgetown was
deepened to twenty-five feet, and it has
filled about FIVE feet, for a distance more
than q hundred feet about abreast OF
the foot of 18th street. This bill, 1t
is said, is caused by sediment brought
down from the upper river by the heavy
currents that always follow protracted
rainy spell In the mountains about the
headwaters Of the river.

OFFICIALS PROBE FOR
DEAD MANS IDENTITY
Police Believe Body Found on
Island Above Great Falls
Was Former Lab0rer.

Sheriff Howard of Montgomery county,
Md. and the local police are conducting
an Investigation today about two miles
above Great Falls to determine the iden-
tity of body found on a small island
there yesterday and also to determine the
cause of death.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robert NJ. Dye OF the
Ventosa apartments told the police Of
finding the body yesterday. and a letter
taken from the trousers pocket of the
dead man suggested that he may have
been employed at Durbin, W. Va
The fact that the man wore two pairs
OF trousers. the police say, suggests that
he probably was a laborer, and the con-
tents of the letter indicate that he was in
search of employment when he received
the missive about the middle of April. the
letter bearing date of April IL.
Letter Found on Body.
The letter was written in German, and
was postmarked Boyer W. Va. 1t was
translated to read: Il let you know that
got your letter. and inform you that
you may come II you want to work; 1
have enough. / do not pay travelling
expenses. If you come. procure a ticket
to Cumberland. and from Cumberland to
Durbin. and in Durbin ask for Frank

1t was impossible TO read the name on

ter. the water having washed away al
most the last trace of them.
The police were told that the condition
of the body indicated it had been in the
water several weeks at least, and 1t is
possible that the high water earlier in
the summer brought it down from many
miles above Great Falls.
