STORM VIOLENT ON RIVER.
Steam Craft Forced to Slow Down
During Tuesdays Blow.

While the storm of Tuesday evening
was Of but slight violence here. the wind
for few minutes blew with considerable
violence on the river and the rain was
heavy enough to make steam vessels
slow down until they could locate their
positions. A portion of the tin roof on
one of the buildings at the Bellview
United States naval magazine, on the
Maryland side of the river, about half
way between this city and Alexandria,
was taken of in the storm, and at Mount
Vernon one OF the big old trees. which
had been blown down in a storm early in
the summer, but which had been raised
back in position in an effort to save it,
was again leveled to the ground and this
time. 1t is thought. it is gone without
hope of being saved.

Fse1 AID Edison To Bill $500
Electric.

A five passenger electric car to cost
$500. with storage battery that will
run 100 miles. This is the reported
plan Of Henry Ford. the automobile
manufacturer. and Thomas A. Edison.
the inventor.
With reference to this, Henery Ford.
who recently announced that$lO, ,O00. 900
profits Of his plant would be divided
with his employees this year, said to the
New York Times.
'You probably want to ask me some
thing about my talk with Thomas A.
Edison at West Orange. yesterday.
Well. think Mr.. Ediron is the great
est man in the world and guess every
one does.
"Within year, hope. We shall be-
gin thesmsnufacture of an electric au.
tomobile. don't like to talk about
things which are year ahead, but
am willing to tell you something of
my plans.
"The fact is that Mr.. Edison and
have been working for some years on
an electric automobile which would be
cheap and practicable. Cars have been
built for experimental purposes, and
we are satisfied now that the way 10
clear to success. The problem so far
has been to build storage battery of
light weight which would operate for
distances without rechafging. Mr..
Edison has been experimenting with
such a battery for some time.
THE car we propose to build will
contain battery weighing forty-five
pounds, and the entire car will weigh
but 200 pounds. 1t will run 100 miles.
THE cost will be about $500 to the public.
| How does that compare with the great,
heavy, and expensive electric cars!'
The next problem, Mr.. Ford explain
ed. was the planning of machinery of
the proper weight, strength and design
to operate such car. When ncgotia-
tions are completed and the battery
and machinery are ready to place upon
the market, it is Mr.. Ford's intention
to have the cars manufactured at
new plant, which will be in charge of
his son Edsall Ford. The batteries
Twill be manufactured by Mr.. Edison.
"Will you introduce the profit shar-
ing plan in the new factory for electric
cars?" Mr.. Ford was asked.
well there may not be any profits
at first and that might make some diff
ference for a time he said. "As for
the adoption Of the new IS minimum
wage in the new factories one thing
is certain oil the Ford shops will pay
good wages"

Great Western Sugar Company, this
means ssc per ton Of beets. In the con-
tract now offered, therefore, We are ask
ing the grower and hand labor combined
to absorb 47c OF this reduction of SSc
per ton of beets. We believe the grow
ers are justified, under the present con-
ditions, in reducing the price OF hand
labor from a general average Of $50 to
$lS per acre. and We advise this. This
saving to the grower OF ~ per acre on an
average OF a II ton crop. means Il saving
to him of l7c per ton, so that the tariff
reduction OF 34c per hundred pounds of
sugar represents SSc per ton of beets and
the contract offered today will result in
the growers absorbing SOC Of this $50, or
"a per cent OF the reduction; the hand
labor l7c, or 20 per cent OF the reduction,
and the Sugar Company Ale, or As per
cent OF the reduction made necessary by
the cut in tariff of 34c per hundred
pounds of sugar.
During the coming year We will waive
the siloing clause in our contract to any
growers who do not want to take advant-
age Of this provision In it. The SLIDING
clause will not bc removed. because some
growers may desire to take advantage of
it as enabling them to better handle
their crop; but, in no case, will it bc
enforced where the grower does not wish
it.
AS Mr.. Dixon says, this decision to
reduce the price of beets has only been
arrived at after long and careful consid-
Grafton and the contract is the best that
can be offered in justice to all parties
interested, and hope the growers will
see the justice OF our decision and plant
