ARMY-NORWICH GAME OFF.

Well.

There will be no football game at
West Point tomorrow. The game
scheduled as tn, Army's official open
ing, to have been played with Nor
wich University, was cancelled be-
cause of the serious injuries to
Quarterback Belyea, of the Norwich
team received in the game with Holy
Cross Wednesday.

on the gridiron yesterday forenoon
despite review for the foreign rife
men, a dress parade aud guard
mount. There was no scrimmage,
but Coach DAILY had everybody doing
something all the time. Daily him
self worked with the men, passing
the ball at quarter and kicking some
wicked spirals for the backs to
handle.
Hobbs got lone drill at punting
and Benedict did some splendid work
kicking goals from placement. The
second team was orde red to break
through and block those kicks if it
could, but the Army line gave Bene-
dict lots of protection and only one
was blocked Considerable time was
devoted to perfecting the forward
pass formations and the play was
stopped every time somebody slipped
a cog until the head coach finally had
the wrinkles smoothed d out. Light
work will be the programme for to-

OYSTER TONGERS DEFY
STATE LEASING LAW
Calvert Countains Raid Planting
Area in Patuxent.
SIX OF PARTY ARRESTED.
Governor Takes Action Soon AS Ad-
vised of Depredstions-FOr
Repeal of Act.

Acting promptly on information
received from Mr.. William III. Malt
bic, of the Shelfish Commission, and
direct complaints from J. F. Sped
den, who alleges that private oys.
ter beds owned by him in PatuXent
river have been raided Governor
Goldsborough has made every effort
to communicate with lmmander
Howard, of the State Fishery force,
and turn over this information with a
suggestion that he take steps to pro-
tect the private beds.
The action of the Calvert county
oystermeu struck the first violent
blow Ia defiance of the state leasing
law Thirty-eight Of them raided
the grounds leased by two planters in
St. Mary's county waters Wednesday
and Thursday and tonged for the bi-
valves planted by Robert SpedIen
and Earl Ryder. Six of the raiders
were captured late yesterday after
noon by Sheriff. Henry c. Dent. of
St. Mary's county, and taken to
Leonardtown. They will remain in
the custody of the Sh sriff until their
cases are disposed of by Justice
Harry E. Graves, before whom the
prisoners will have preliminary
hearing this afternoon.
The Oystermen have organized a
determined fight against the leasing
law, aud the fight will be carried to
the General Assembly of Maryland,
where, they hope, the leasing law
will be repealed in 1914. There is
no evidence that the oystermen, as a
body, are responsible t)r the viola
tions of the law by the Calvert coun-
ty men; but there is no denying the
fact that the prisoners have the en-
tire sympathy of that large class
which depends upon oystering for
living.
The bottoms raided by the tongmen
were leased from the Shellfsh Com
mission July 19, 1912, by Robert
Spedden and consist of % acres in
the Patuxent river, about ten miles
from the Chesapeake Bay, off Coles
Creek. On these bottoms. it is de-
clared, 1000 bushels Of seed oysters
were planted, which have matured to

being taken by the oystermen

BELLS SEEMS SURE
OF POSTOFF|CE BERTH
Congressman Smith Said to Have
Received Assurances.
APPOINTMENT COMES SOON.
List Of All Important Maryland Offices
Now Ready to be
Sent In.

1t is practically settled, according
to advices from Washington. that
former State Senator Joseph H. BELLS
will be appointed postmaster of An
napolis and that his nomination viii
90 in when the remainder of the
Maryland appointments are made.
This ass surance, it is. said, was
given to Representative Frank o.
Smith by Postmaster-General Burle-
son. No announcements were au-
thorized at the Postoffice Depart
ment, and MIR. Burleson reserves the
right to change his mind. Even so,
the friends of Senator Bells in
Washington now believe the fight is
won.
If this appointment and the one of
Franklin B. Beall, of Cumberland, go
in, it will be regarded as showing
conclusively that the Administration
has decided in the case OF purely
local appointments to follow the ad-
vice of the Maryland Congressman as
rule, if not absolutely.
A vigorous fight has been made
against Senator BELLS. The anti
machine forces of Anne Arundel coun-
ty have been relentless in their OPP
position to him and the suffragettes
of Baltimore have gone out of their
way to assail his reputation in his
community. Besides, it is said,
other protests were filed.
Regardless of this, however, it is
said to be practically certain that
Senator Bells will be named II has
been a foregone conclusion for some
time that the Postmaster-General
would support Franklin B. Beall.
The same kind of fight was waged
against Mr.. Beall in Cumberland and
Allegany county.
The close friends of Senator Bells
have felt serenely confident all along
that the postoffice plum would fall to
him, in spite of the active fight made
against him, and in behalf of the
other candidates for the office.
Those who have been most promi-
nsntly mentioned for the appoint
ment, and whose friends had brought
influence to bear on the Federal au-
thorities at Washington, are Mr..
Grafton d Ridout, vice-presidet of
the Farmers National Bank; Mr..
William H. Rullman, pharmacist OF
West street, and former City Collec-
tor and Treasurer Winson G. Gott.
Nearly two months ago Mr.. B ,llis
rendered to the Governor his resigna-
tion as State Senator of the county.
Mr.. Bells gave no reason for resign
ing, but it was said by many at the
time that he was paving the way for
the postotfice berth, having received
assurances that he would get the ap-
pointment. Others took a contrary
view of the situation, as it was r..
ported in some quarters a break was
pending among the local leaders be-
cause of alleged disagreement a. to
| declaring for a candidate for United
States Senator. This report, how
ever, seemed to be unfounded.
According to present indications,
all the vacant postmasterships in the
State will be filed at one time The
Postmsster-General carried the West
ern Maryland appointments to the
White House yesterday and went
over the list with the Executive. In
each case, it has become known, the
Lewis recommendations was fol-
/! lowed.

A NEW FORM OF PUNISHMENT.
Plebes Walk For Two Hours and Carry
Guns

A new form of punishment recent
ly introduc I'd at the Naval Academy
for recalcitrant plebes is that for
two hours during recreation periods
the offenders march up and down in
front Of Bancroft Hall carrying guns.
Midshipmen of the new fourth
class who violate Naval Academy
rules and regulations forfeit their
recreation period and, like the Army
cadets, are made to do guard duty.
The array of plebes, "toting" guns
up and down in front of Bancroft
Hall, is quite formidable to strangers.

FORMER STATE SENATOR JOSEPH H. BELLS.

In the list are perhaps half dozen
Eastern Shore appointments. They
have been carefully gone over be-
tween Mr.. Covingtnn and Mr.. Burle-
son, and as soon as all of them can
be finally sifted they will be ar-
pended to the batch of Maryland
nominations now under consideration
mt the White House.
Representative Lewis yesterday
added one more name to his list of
Inducements. He recommended the
appointment of George M. Wolf for
postmaster at Forest Glen, Md.
This office is in montgomery county
and carries with it a salary of ST.
500 a year. He has made no new
Endorsements of a postmaster at
Silver Spring, in tAe same county.
