SCHOONER KATE IS FLOATED.
Released From Mud Near Fort
Foote Nd. by Naval Tug.

After having lain ashore on the fats
near Fort Foote. Md. for more than
twenty-four hours the two-masted
bay schooner Kate was yesterday after
noon fioated and came to this city to un-
load her cargo of lumber The vessel
went on the fats, it is reported, on
good tide and in spite of the efforts or
the tug Captain Toby to float her she re-
fused to bulge from her bed in the mud
Efforts were made by her crew to work
her OFF the mud bank, but without sue
cess, and yesterday the navy yaro
authorities were appealed to by the mas
ter of the Kate for aid. The big naval
tug Tecumseh was sent to the stranded
vessel. and yesterday afternoon on high
tide the big tug pulled the boat into
deep water.
AS she was not injured By being ashore
the Kate was brought to this city under
sail. The Kate is an old visitor to
this port, but it has been more than
year since she was last here.

FEW OYSTERS AT WHARF.
Receipts of Shad and Herring Also
Continue Light.

Less than 100 bushels of oysters all
told were aboard the two small boats
lying at the oyster wharf late yesterday
afternoon. and while there are vessels
down the river laden with oysters for
this market. when they will arrive is a
question, though one or two may come
in this morning. Only one week of the
oyster-taking season remains. but the
sale of oysters is legal under the laws of
Virginia and Maryland until May l. After
that time those found with oysters in
their possession are liable to a heavy fine
and Imprisonment At this city oysters
can be sold all the year around. Unless
vessels with oysters aboard arrive this
morning. the Sunday visitors to the
wharf market who call each week for a
feast of freshly shucked oysters will
find the market poorly supplied.

JUDGE ScULLY'S VICTORY BLOW
TO TRIBUNE.

The election of Thomas F. Scully
to the important position of county
judge shows how little the people
have come to care for the dictation
of the newspaper trust. No candi-
date was ever more viIlifed by the
papers than Scully.
Before the primaries Scully fought
hand to hand with the Hearst sheet
and even though up against as strong
a man as Johnny Owens was, the
Democrats nominated Scully.
In the election race Scully fought
with the TTib, which has been so
chesty since the Lorimer case. Ber-
tie Mccormick, head of the Trib, was
out to get Scully because the new
county judge told the people of the
bill bill filed in the Superior Court
by McCormick's cousin, Edward S.
Adams, in which the publisher was
accused of immortality with Adams
wife.
Not trust newspaper was behind
Scully. And yet he was eelcted by
large plurality It is the worst wal
lop that has ever been handed the

THE ELECTION COMMISSIONERS,

The state board Of election commits
sioners, consisting of DR.. l. ]. Camp
bell of Glover; w. B. Keller Of York
vile, and ]. b. Neil of Fflbert, met on
Wednesday.
Organization was effected by the
election Of Mr. John e. Carroll as clerk
Of the board, and managers were ap-
pointed to conduct the election at the
various precincts.
Unless Senator Clifton's bill to do
away with the old eight box law" gets
through, it will be necessary to have
fourteen boxes at each precinct-four
for state and county offices and the
balance for the various constitutional
amendments.
In canvassing the returns two years
ago the board had quite a lot of trou-
BILE finding the boxes at the various
precincts, that contained poll lists, re-
turns ETC., and the clerk was instruct
ed that when the managers came after
the boxes on October 81 each Of them
should be requested to see to 1t that
the box containing the papers referred
to should be plainly labeled.
Mr.. j. A. c. Love was the only men,
ber of the Federal board of commits
sioners on hand Wednesday. He got in
communication with Mr.. Nye w. AL
len Of Rock Hill, who has not yet re-
ceived his commission. AS soon as Mr..
Allen is properly qualified, the board
will appoint managers to conduct the
election.
Only two Federal boxes will be re-
quired at the various precincts-one
in which to ballot for congressman
and the other in which to ballot for
United States senator.
