COAL FOR INDIAN HEAD.
Last Boats Start for Cumberland
New Facilities Planned,

With the last coal boats to take coal
to the naval powder plant at Indian
Head. Md, the tug Capt Toby arrived
at Georgetown this morning. and started
them on their return journey up the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal. Usually at
this season of the year coal shipments to
Indian Head are at their heaviest. and
continue until the coming of cold
weather and the shutting down of the
canal. Each fall a, reserve supply suf-
ficient to carry the powder plant through
the winter is accumulated at Indian
Head. so that during the time the canal
Is closed down there will be plenty of
coal on hand without any being taken to
the plant.
This reserve supply has been accumu-
lated earlier than usual this year. and in
order to do so boats laden with coal
have been sent from this city to the
coal wharf on Mattowoman creek six
times each week for the past six weeks.
The hurry in getting the coal down is
said to be due to the fact that the
authorities at Indian Head wish to have
the wharf rebuilt and to start work on Ii
before the bad weather comes. 1t is
stated that the present wooden wharf
and coal storage and handling plant is
to be replaced by a modern steel and
concrete structure. equipped to unload
a canal boat in an hour Or two instead
Of requiring q half day ~ neWs

o'clock in the morning for the fox
hunts.
Mr.. Tuckerman has announced that
this season notices of hunts will not be

printed In the newspapers, and posted
In the Metropolitan. Chevy Chase and
the master of fox hounds regarding the
weather will be posted at the Riding
and Hunt Club three hours prior to the
scheduled time for starting hunts.
A number of the hunting enthusiasts
who took part in the sport last season
have left Washington because of the
change In administration and because
of army and navy orders. Miss Helen
Taft. daughter Of the former President;
former Secretary of War Stimson and
the last administration were enthusiastic
followers of the hounds. 1t is expected,
however that members Of the new ad-
ministration will take their places.

HUNDREDS OF FAMILIES
IN MIDST OF MOVING
Annual Migration From House to
House Occurs First
of October.

Hundreds of families are in the midst
of the hustle and excitement of the an
nual moving day With the arrival
of October / practically all the leases on
apartments and many of the leases on
houses expired, and the annual migration
from house to house. from apartment
to house and vice versa, and from the
country to the city, is on.
The actual work of moving furniture
from place to place has been going on
for several days. and will continue for
several days more. But the experience
of transfer companies has taught them
that by October practically all the
moving will have been accomplished,
and the migratory families will settle
down to their normal lives again.
The transfer companies estimate that
about 1000 families are moving from
one home to another this year, the num-
Der being only slightly in excess of the
number moving in previous years.
number of new apartment houses have
gone up within the last year. and some
families always insist upon moving into
a new apartment house each October l.
While there has been the usual amount
of gossip about soaring rents In wash
ington, the rental agents say that, tax
ing all sections of the city into considera-
ton, the average of rents this year Will
not be any higher than last year. Apart
ment house rents have remained ABOUT
the same, they say.
