movements to establish line OF steam
ers between Washington. Alexandria
Norfolk and New York has been re-
rived and the projectors now seem
l. mean business. G.. w. Morse,
president of the United Steamship
Company, accompanied by his counsel
". was in Washington yesterday for the
purpose of securing dock privileges
etc. Such privileges have, 1T Is salo'
been selected in Norfolk, Two steam
ers are expected to arrive during the
next few days, zone Of which Will De

Washington.
This new line has been the sub
ieet of talk in commercial circles sew
eral times during the past few years
At present freight for New York and
Baltimore is transhipped at Norfolk
When the new line shall have been
inaugurated it will be carried through
without breaking bulk.
In the olden time separate steamer
lines were operated between Washing
ton. Alexandria and New York. also
to Philadelphia. At one time the
steamer Promcthcus piled between
these ports and Boston. For m%ny
wears, however, the Norfolk and
Washington line has carried freight
for northern ports, the same being
placed upon the steamers of the Old
dominion and Merchants'and Miners
Lines at Norfolk.

REFUSED IMPROVEMENTS.

When white men began to settle on
the North American continent the
first cause of friction between them
and the aborigines was brought on by
clearing ground for building and 9TH
err purposes. The natives objected. al
lcging that the white men were de-
stroying the hunting grounds.
When the annua! estimates were
presented Is Congress December 4, an
item urgd was some thousands OF
dollars for Improvement Of Aqua
Creek, on the Potomac river forty
miles below Alexandria.
The residents of the locality sent
Il lawyer to the congress hearings
to urge it he stricken out. That law
yer told the rivers and harbors ex-
perts that to improve Aqua Creek
would scare away wild ducks and
ruin the best duck hunting grounds
on the Potomac river.

PEACE WHISPERS.

German shipping circles in baltl-
more were galvanized into action yes
teraay by the announcements OF the
North German Lloyd Line and the
Hamburg American Line that they
were ready to make contracts for
freights latter resumption OF SER
vice" upon conclusion of the war or
when the seas might be open other
wise to German merchant vessels.
The companies were ever closing
contracts for definite reservations on
the German vessels in Baltimore and
other American ports for prospective
sailings.
The steamship agents evitentaly
believe something definite in peace
prospects is in view. or the two big
German transatlantic lines would
not have gone 20 the rather large eX-
pense Of notifying past and pros
pective clients of their readiness to
make freight contracts.
Action taken BY German shipping
interests in Ne WORK in evident anti
cipation Of peace was revealed yes
tcrday when announcements came
from the local Offices of the two big
German transatlantic lines that in
structions had been received to make
freight contracts for shipments from
New YORK to Germany. ''after re-
sumption Of our regular service"
In notice sent out to freight
agents and brokers by Oelrichs 4
Co, general agents in this country
for the North German Lloyd Steam
