RIVER MOTOR BOATS
VIOLATE REGULATIONS
Bureau Of Navigation Reports Twenty
Eve Cases-craft with Six Passea-
gers Had One Life Preserver.
M'KINLAY EXPRESSES SURPRISE

As the result Of a vigorous crusade IN
the interest Of greater safety on the
waters in the vicinity OF Washington
similar to the effective one inspired last
summer by The Washington Herald-the
Bureau of Navigation, of the Depart
ment OF Commerce. has discovered
within the past few weeks twenty-five
violations Of the pilot regulations.
me names OF the offenders have been
reported to the Office of the Collector
OF tne Port of Georgetown Before fines
are definitely imposed and coIIecte5 the
oeiendants will be given an opportunity
TO ME with the Bureau of Nayigation
sworn statements concerning the alleged
violations OF the law.
Inc report OF the offenses came az a
complete surprise to whitefield McKIn-
lay, Collector of the Port.
1 was absolutely astounded when T
learned Of the violations he said last
night. From the facts revealed nv ths
reported cases. I would say thar condi-
tons on the Potomac are decidedly worse
than they were last summer. Our o.
nee mas not boat at its disposal for
the purpose OF patrolling the WATERWAYS
ana enforcing the regulations. and this
work Is performed by the Bureau ~
Nayiga ton. Every effort will be mad.
to deal so severely with offenders that
other owners OF water craft WIN he
taught the lesson of strict Observance
OF the existing laws
Boatmen on the Potomac near Geor1a-
town and Washington were taken totaI1y
unawares by the government ofictaIs
The Bureau OF Navigation's motor boa,
Tarragon. which was purchased less than
year ago for the purpose OF parroline
the waters OF the various customs dis
trfcts, slipped up the Potomac quietly
and unostentatiously. with her officers
on the keen watch for violations.
During Saturday and Sunday fortv-
nine motor boats were inspected and
SIX violations OF the regulations were
discovered The most serious offense
was found when the officers came upon
motor boat with six persons aboard
and only one life-preserver. Another
boat was discovered to have no eouip-
ment for extinguishing burning gasoline.
Onicer Dryden was greatly pleased with
the observance OF the laws concerning
running lights and anchor lights. He
said that the motor boats OF Washington
observed these particular regulations bet
ter than the craft in any OF the other
or the twenty customs districts visited
SO far by the Tarragon Most of the
violations Of laws regarding lights In
this vicinity were committed by ths
larger vessels.
NO regular government vessel f. STA
TONED at the local port throughout the
season for the enforcement OF the law.
The Tarragon is employed to visit all
OF the customs districts in rotation. II
probably will come up the Potomac sew
eral times each season.

CO[DENSTROTH JURY
AGAIN IS DISAGREED
Hotel Proprietols Second Trial for
Excise Law Violation Is
Without Result.
CASE MAY BEINvALIDATED

For the second time the trial Of George
W. Coldenstroth, the hotel proprietor
charged with violation of the excise law,
was halted yesterday afternoon by the
inability of the jury to reach an agree
ment. II is improbable that the case
will come up for trial, as forty-one jury
men already have been disqualified in
the two trials and II would be necessary
to summon another panel. Should the
case not come to hearing before July
II will be invalidated by the new
excise law that becomes effective at that
date.
The Jury received the case at 2 O'Clock
in the afternoon and remained in the
jury room nearly three hours, when a
disagreement was reported. 1t Is said
the two ballots were eleven to one for
acquittal.
The prosecution placed four witnesses
on the stand, and Attorney NJ. W. Sulli-
van, counsel for Coldenstroth. did not
use any witnesses. He contented him.
self with arguing that no sale was proved
In the testimony adduced by the State
The specific charge against Golden
stroth was that he had sold liquor to
persons not guests Of his hotel after the
prescribed closing hours. Lieut.. Harri.
son, OF the First Precinct, stated that
he had been in the hotel on the night
in question and had seen people eating
and drinking there, but that he did moi
know whether they were guests oil
whether they had ordered their drink
before midnight.
Lieut.. Harrison was followed by De
tective Howes, also of the First Pre-
cinct, who largely corroborated Harri'
sons testimony.

ANOTHER OFFICER
Convention Creates Add
tional Vice President, In
creasing Number to Six.
BYLAWS ALL APPROVED
Fight Over Next Convention City
Probably viii Come Up
Thursday.

The creation Of the Office of an addi-
tiQnal vice president and the completion
OF the revision OF the constitution and
bylaws were the most important mat
tiers disposed OF yesterday at the con-
vention of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Firemen and Enginemen.
The addition of another vice president
brings the total up TO six, which. to-
gether with the president and assistant
president, gives the brotherhood eight
field officers. The creation of the new
vice presidential Office Is the result of
the great development in the membership
of the organization during the past few
years. The business OF the brotherhood
has grown to such enormous proportions
that II was necessary to add another
field officer in order that the interests
of the brotherhood might best be pro-
tected.
bylaws Arc Approved.
A majority of the delegates attending
the convention heaved sigh OF relief
yesterday when the last paragraph Of
the revision of the constitution and by
laws had been approved of. The work
of revising the constitution has occupied
the three weeks that the convention has
been in session and has been strain
upon the delegates. The convention yes
terday entered upon its last week and
the great pressure OF business will per-
NIT no let up'in the work until the very
last minute. There are several very i'm
portant matters to come up before the
convention, and any determined opposi-
ton to any of them would necessarily
prolong the sessions of the convention
longer than Saturday, the day set for
final adjournment.
Beginning this morning the reports of
the various standing committees will be
submitted and n number OF minor recon-
mendations contained In them approved
Of
It is expected that the convention city
fight will not come up in the convention
before Thursday. The question may be
disposed OF in two days. leaving Satur-
day for the election of officers and a few
matters OF minor importance which will
be taken up II there Is time. Each of
the cities is claiming enough pledges to
insure victory. There is no outward evil
dence as to the final choice of the dele
gates. All are hard at work among the
delegates, and the race is apparently
close.
The addition OF another vice president
has injected some life into the election
of officers. Several candidates will take
the field for the new Office. The South
ern. delegates will make a strong bid
TO obtain the election OF Southern man.
They feel that the rapid development OF
the railroads in the South entities them
to another officer. No opposition to any
of the present officers of the brotherhoo!
has developed. and their reelection is
taken for granted.
A special committee appointed yester-
day by President Carter. consisting OF
C. II. Mclaughlin. Charles A. Phitts, and
G. II. Brown, will journey TO Mount Yer
non today and lay q wreath on the tomb
of George Washington in the name of
the brotherhood.
